Chapter 251: Commemorating the Heroic Spirits—The Demon-Slaying Army is Established!
The monks who were eager to try before suddenly gave up.
Chu You immediately cheered everyone up:
"Don't be afraid!
We mainly fight guerrilla warfare. As for the energy stones and teleportation arrays, we will get them and open them if we have the chance.
If there is no chance, how about we just stick to our previous plan?"
Everyone exchanged glances and expressed their agreement.
Hundreds of cultivators immediately disguised themselves as half-demons and, based on the information Zhu Yan had obtained from the young master of the half-demon clan, quickly headed towards a place that was particularly suitable for concealment.
Theoretically, the Demon Lord of the Half-Demon Clan is infinitely close to the Ascension Realm. If he takes action personally, this group of people will probably be in great danger. Chu You should not provoke them out of character.
But now that Chu You has done this, no one has questioned her decision.
That is unconditional trust and support.
People who are familiar with her know that she must have her own reasons for doing this.
Once those who follow her decide to follow her, they will not doubt her at all.
They have seen too many of Chu You's deeds in live broadcasts and on the Jade Slip Forum. If they still have doubts, they will not choose to follow him.
What's more, when they voted in favor of Jiang Xinbai's proposal and decided to join this war to actively unify the half-demon race, they were already determined to "live towards death."
Chu You too!
She was testing the bottom line and details of the Demon Lord, and also wanted to disrupt their position, create a frontal battlefield on the border between humans and demons, and strive for more breakthrough opportunities.
But Chu You was not blindly arrogant. The young master of the half-demon clan could no longer use his magic power normally just because he attacked her. The Demon Lord must have noticed something strange.
Even, he sensed the existence of divine power.
It all depends on how far he fears the divine power and how far he is willing to test it.
Chu You knew that the Demon Lord had deduced the existence of divine power.
The demons might also know that Chu You guessed that he knew about the existence of divine power.
They were guessing and testing each other's next move.
This is a tense "dynamic game", and Chu You chooses to be the first to join in.
In this way, the Demon Lord will fall into a passive state.
The fact was indeed as Chu You inferred. When the Demon Lord heard the report from the half-demons who had escaped, he immediately became very angry.
When the demon soldiers thought that the Demon Lord would send people to hunt down and kill Chu You and other cultivators, the Demon Lord only ordered to increase the efforts to break the seal!
The demon soldiers were puzzled but dared not raise any objections, so they could only pack up and set off.
Zhu Yan got the news from the young master of the half-demon clan, and controlled him through puppetry to ask the Demon Lord for a sinecure in the army, so that he knew the progress of the army very well.
Afterwards, Chu You and others implemented the sixteen-character guerrilla warfare strategy of "when the enemy advances, we retreat; when the enemy stays, we harass; when the enemy is tired, we attack; when the enemy retreats, we pursue" to the extreme.
The half-demons were almost broken by anger.
Chu You and the others acted as if their soles were greased with oil. When the half-demons chased them, they ran away.
As soon as the half-demon tribe's garrison rested, Chu You and his men took the opportunity to disrupt the situation, burning food supplies, seizing military flags, pretending to be firemen and drugging the food... They used every possible means.
When the half-demon soldiers were exhausted, Chu You and others bombarded them again, forcing them to retreat step by step.
After nearly half a month, the large force supporting the human-demon border had originally advanced fifty miles, but now had retreated thirty miles.
Finally, a demon soldier couldn't stand it anymore and started to complain crazily:
"Are they really cultivators from the world of cultivation? How come they are even more despicable and shameless than us demons?!"
"Exactly! Isn't it said that cultivators in the world of cultivation are noble and upright, and that they value integrity? They ran away as soon as we chased them. They really don't show any integrity at all!"
"Burning food supplies, poisoning, burning military flags, stealing our underwear in the middle of the night... Is this something a decent human being could come up with?"
"I really can't stand it anymore. Someone please ask the commander-in-chief to ask the Demon Lord to destroy Chu You and his gang of hooligans first!"
"Right, right, right! If they keep hitting me like this, I'm going to have a nervous breakdown!"
"I guess I'll be thinking about killing myself before I even get to the border!"
……
The commander of this team couldn't stand it anymore, so he sent people back to the Demon City overnight to ask the Demon Lord for orders. He then led the most elite team in the army to guard the entire camp.
If Chu You and the others dare to come tonight, he will have to capture at least dozens of them, otherwise it will be too frustrating!
Little did they know that on the night they were on high alert, Chu You and his men had no intention of launching a sneak attack at all.
Because just an hour ago, Zhu Yan had actually created the "Aerial Spiritual Signal Tower" that he had been developing continuously!
Moreover, with the operation of Jiang Xinbai's "Mountain and River Pen", the trace of the "Air Spirit Signal Tower" was completely hidden, but it could still follow them at any time according to the established trajectory, so that Chu You and others' jade slips had spiritual signals, and they could always keep in touch with the monks on the other side of the seal and exchange information.
According to the half-demon clan's plan, the seal will be completely broken in three days.
The news brought by Ning Luo and others was that the righteous monks would take the lead in a surprise attack to break through the seal at midnight tomorrow and catch the half-demon clan off guard.
Tonight, they will hold a formal ceremony to establish the "Demon-Slaying Army", and Chu You and other monks in the Demon Realm will keep pace with them.
The first thing to do after forming the army: pay tribute to the heroic spirits!
In memory of the great war between humans and demons a hundred years ago, and the many cultivators who sacrificed their lives for the peace and tranquility of the cultivation world!
In memory of the independent cultivators who died heroically in the battle of Xinghewan!
In memory of the countless cultivators who defended the peace of the Hongmeng cultivation world!
When Chu You read out the names and hometowns of the casual cultivators who sacrificed their lives in Xinghewan word for word, everyone couldn't help but shed tears again.
It turned out that she didn't forget, but had always kept it in her heart.
Although she was suppressed by Sect Leader Li and could not move at that time, she remembered clearly in her heart every person who sacrificed for her and for justice.
She has been waiting for an opportunity!
A chance for justice for them!
Now the opportunity has come!
Although the direct culprit who killed that group of wandering cultivators, Sect Leader Li, has been executed, his shattered soul is also being guarded by the Zen Sect.
However, as long as the evil cultivators are not eliminated and the half-demon race is not unified, the entire cultivation world will never be able to truly be stable.
For them, for myself.
This battle has to be fought!
