Assuming control over South Nether Prefecture was just the first step in Shimohe’s plan. His goal was not rely South Nether Prefecture, but all nine prefectures of Great Qin, and ultimately, the entire world.
News that the Eternal Alliance and the Demon Evil Clan had attacked Mountain-Breaking City, only to be utterly defeated by Shen Changqing, spread like wildfire throughout South Nether Prefecture. By now, everyone understood that the Shen Changqing, renowned in South Nether Prefecture, was no longer the Shen Changqing of old. To single-handedly crush the Demon Evil’s assault and even defeat the Eternal Alliance Master—such strength placed him among the absolute top-tier existences in all of Great Qin. Even Ji Tianlu, Yun Venerable, and other Dominators of the Demon-Subduing Division seed sowhat inferior to Shen Changqing in the eyes of the people of South Nether Prefecture.
It could be said that if Shimohe hadn’t appeared, Shen Changqing might well have been considered the foremost individual in South Nether Prefecture.
But—with Shimohe’s precedent shining so brightly, the commotion Shen Changqing caused didn’t seem quite as significant.
After all, no matter how strong Shen Changqing was, those in the Jianghu didn’t believe he could surpass Shimohe. A powerhouse from eight hundred years ago, Shimohe had long since reached the Great Grandmaster realm. How could others possibly compare?
However, so speculated that Shen Changqing had also reached the Great Grandmaster realm. Otherwise, his strength couldn’t possibly be so formidable.
Yet, even among Great Grandmasters, disparities existed.
As the news spread, many began to eagerly anticipate a day when Shen Changqing and Shimohe would formally clash. In a thousand years, these were the only two Great Grandmasters. If they were to truly fight, it would undoubtedly be an earth-shattering event. Many were looking forward to it. Similarly, they believed this mont was not too far off.
The Myriad Buddhas Sect had recently defeated the Demon-Subduing Division. The two sides had now thoroughly torn off all pretenses. As a powerhouse of the Demon-Subduing Division, Shen Changqing would certainly not stand idly by. Consequently, a battle between them was inevitable; it was only a matter of ti.
"Mountain-Breaking City has repelled all the Demon Evil and the Eternal Alliance!"
Inside the Zhenyue Sect, upon receiving this news, Lin Yue could no longer maintain his composure.
This news was completely different from what he had initially anticipated.
Lin Yue had initially thought that Mountain-Breaking City and the Demon Evil Clan would grievously wound each other, which was why he had completely disregarded the Demon-Subduing Division’s people.
But unexpectedly, the Demon-Subduing Division, already in such a state, had still managed to produce a Shen Changqing midway.
After the battle, Mountain-Breaking City hadn’t suffered many losses; instead, it was the Demon Evil forces that had lost troops and generals. Strictly speaking, with Shen Changqing present, Mountain-Breaking City’s strength hadn’t diminished at all. On the contrary, it was now considerably stronger than before.
A top-tier powerhouse could compensate for many deficiencies.
Not to ntion, during the battle with the Myriad Buddhas Sect, Mountain-Breaking City hadn’t lost a single Defender Envoy; even Ji Tianlu was only gravely injured.
Now, with Shen Changqing, it was as if Ji Tianlu’s serious injury, and the resulting gap, had been directly filled.
No, this newcor was even more powerful than Ji Tianlu.
For a mont, Lin Yue realized the gravity of the situation. He had dared to treat Jiang Zuo so perfunctorily because he was certain Mountain-Breaking City was already finished. But now, not only had Mountain-Breaking City suffered no losses, its strength was even greater than before.
In that case, his previous actions might bring trouble to the Zhenyue Sect.
Thinking of this, Lin Yue imdiately looked at the Elders below and said in a solemn voice, "Relay my command! Imdiately lead all experts of the Zhenyue Sect to assist the Demon-Subduing Division in exterminating the Demon Evil. Also, tell Jiang Zuo that our Zhenyue Sect is a prominent sect in South Nether Prefecture. Even if our strength has been compromised, we will absolutely not sit by and watch the Demon Evil wreak havoc. Our previous actions were solely for the sake of our Sect’s foundation. But how can any eggs remain intact when the nest is overturned? Our Zhenyue Sect vows to protect Yongzhou City to the death!"
Upon hearing Lin Yue’s words, the few Zhenyue Sect Elders were montarily stunned. But soon, they recovered and hurriedly nodded.
"Understood!"
Watching the Elders depart, Lin Yue sighed.
Circumstances are stronger than individuals. All he could do now was attempt to nd the situation.
