"Haha, the reason you all haven't thought of this is probably because the shadow of the last battle still lingers in your hearts," Wang Long said as he stood up, reinforcing his words. "First, Heaven's Binding will never sit idly by. Anyone trying to wipe them out will have to pay a tremendous price. Second, this means their available forces will be very limited, and considering that the Giant Clan is also something they cannot afford to abandon, do you still think they have no flaws to exploit?"
Pei He replied calmly, "We absolutely do not doubt the command abilities of Wang Long and Jiang Xue. However, what we are worried about now is not whether they have flaws to find, but rather that even if they do, their importance surely cannot compare to that of our leaders."
"What about Demon's Swamp then?"
"Uh..."
At this moment in the hall of Xuanmen, only those with the most important positions were qualified to enter. It was far less noisy than outside, but even so, discussions had not ceased since they began talking.
However, when Wang Long made this statement, everyone fell silent and stared at him in shock.
At this time... after their previous raid on Demon's Swamp and inflicting such great damage on the Demon Clan, it was impossible for them not to be on guard; how could they allow you to succeed a second time?
Moreover, some medium sects under the control of Holy Divine Gate had little contact with Wang Long and thought that the Dragon City forces were nothing special and that their plans were merely fanciful ideas.
"Isn't this a bit too risky? I'm afraid we might end up entangled with the Demon Clan, making it impossible for us to escape."
"Your Excellency seems to have forgotten some premises: they cannot easily resolve both the disputes with the Giant Clan and deal with the Heavenly Binding Sect Master from Holy Divine Gate at the same time. Furthermore, people think alike; they will believe that since we have already gained something from our previous encounter, they won't attack. This mindset will lead them to not focus their attention on Demon's Swamp. More importantly, after their previous failure, it will further intimidate them; not to mention that the benefits from this battle and the costs incurred by Game God Sect will certainly be redirected back to Demon's Swamp. Just based on their last failure alone, they cannot afford another loss."
Everyone pondered in silence for a moment. According to Wang Long's reasoning, such an action could indeed strike at their weaknesses; at least for the Demon Clan, it was a place they had to save.
"However, Game God Sect won't fall for it. I believe they must have some agreements with the Demon Clan; such a plan may not succeed."
"All agreements are based on conditions of benefit. Don't forget what Game God Sect says: having four people in charge is worse than splitting it between two; similarly, two cannot compare to one being supreme. This contradiction is fundamentally unavoidable for them because they will harbor suspicions!"
"Even if I don't want it myself, how can I guarantee that the other party won't have such thoughts and strike first? Unless Brahma Demon King or Victory Over Heaven suddenly becomes a saint; otherwise, they would prefer us to exhaust each other while they reap the benefits."
"It is indeed a formidable plan." Apart from a few Elders of the Xuanmen who had already interacted with Wang Long and others, the other Elders of the Sect took a while to react to Wang Long's words, and the fear in their expressions was clearly intensified!
Absolute psychological control.
At this point, as long as they put themselves in the mindset of the Brahma Demon King or Victory Over Heaven, they would realize that although Wang Long's plan was extremely risky, it was based on assumptions that could not afford any mistakes. However, the likelihood of success was almost guaranteed! This made their chances of victory significantly higher, rather than just a simple gamble.
Even the Elders of the Holy Divine Gate, who were eager to rescue their Sect leader, deeply felt that if they followed Wang Long's proposed plan, there would not be any major issues.
"Alright! This matter is settled! I, Wuxuan, will speak on behalf of the Xuanmen and support Wang Long's opinion!"
What surprised Wang Long and his group was that Elder Wuxuan, who had previously looked down on them, was the first to stand up in support. "Moreover, we do not have much time left. Every moment we delay here increases the possibility of Heaven's Binding becoming ineffective to an infinite degree. The consequences of that are something no one can bear."
"Fine! We are also willing to try Wang Long's suggestion. Furthermore, our Holy Divine Gate and Top Hundred Solitary Stars will also join the expedition! I refuse to believe that with all their combined strength, we cannot match the power we had during the battle against the Demon Clan and the divine race. As long as they show a flaw, the price we have to pay will be greatly reduced!"
After much discussion, everyone ultimately reached a consensus, still primarily following Wang Long's proposal.
And regarding such a complex operation, none present were more confident than Wang Long in achieving their goals.
How to lure the enemy, how to retreat before the main forces of the Demon Clan return, and how to find flaws in the Game God Sect to exploit—all these required exceptional command skills.
It now seemed that Wang Long had already considered these points before making this proposal.
He had obtained command over the entire Allied Forces without shedding blood!
Of course, it should not be assumed that Wang Long and his group had gained a significant advantage. After all, it was only temporary command; once this battle concluded, things would return to normal—there would be no further regard for them.
Conversely, it wouldn't be wrong to say that they were just temporary workers for them.
The most important thing is that this time, Wang Long and the others verified how strong the belief of the entire divine race is regarding the upcoming great war, at least making them feel it is worthwhile to participate in this fierce battle for the sake of these allies.
Although this time Xuanmen and Holy Divine Gate suffered tremendous losses, they received support from other medium-sized sects. At least in terms of the general strength of experts, there was still an improvement.
However, according to intelligence, the Demon Clan also suffered significant losses. Just the final desperate counterattack by the True Navigator resulted in a reduction of four top experts from the Demon Clan.
This time, Xuanmen's great loss also served as a smokescreen, allowing them to gather their forces across such a vast area of the southern mainland plains under such a legitimate pretext without anyone noticing.
However, according to Wang Long, this operation requires more precision than numbers; having too many people would actually hinder their speed of movement. Therefore, they needed to send back a large number of warriors to make the act appear more convincing.
As for candidates from Dragon City, they were readily available. Thousands of warriors remained intact; after the great battle, their strength had improved significantly, making them capable of becoming one of the main forces within the Allied Forces.
As soon as the Army moved, it already put immense pressure on Game God Sect and the Demon Clan. Especially those medium-sized forces in the Northern Qian Mountain Range who temporarily submitted to Game God Sect but were closely watching the situation develop; if Divine Coalition could regroup after this battle and with Evil Extermination Sect's influence, they feared that these forces would quickly change their stance.
However, just as they and Evil Extermination Sect were eagerly anticipating Divine Coalition's actions, they suddenly realized that their target was not even focused on them!
It seemed they had no interest in rescuing them from their predicament and were heading straight for Demon's Swamp. Regardless of their preparations to greet the Army or any traps set by Demon Clan or Game God Sect, everything fell flat.
"What! Demon's Swamp!" Upon hearing these words, everyone in the Main Tent of Demon Clan, except for Brahma Demon King, changed their expressions drastically.
If they hadn't already spread spies throughout Northern Qian Mountain Range, they would suspect that Game God Sect was foolish enough to concoct such an obvious lie that would be immediately exposed. They even began to doubt whether these Game God Sect individuals were deliberately trying to undermine their reputation.
"Indeed, this move was unexpected for us; however, this intelligence has been repeatedly verified and will not be wrong. I believe your subordinates will provide accurate information in a short time."
"Could they really bear to abandon the Heaven's Binding and others from the Holy Divine Gate, watching them die without intervening?" The Heavenly Slayer had heard this news a bit earlier, but even he found it hard to comprehend, let alone those from the Demon Clan who had just heard it.
"If we set aside the insistence of those divine beings, this plan is indeed much better than knowingly walking into a trap. The question is... how did Long City manage to persuade the Xuanmen and the Holy Divine Gate?"
"The situation is changing, and their thoughts will naturally change accordingly. Don't forget that after suffering a major loss, the Xuanmen and the Holy Divine Gate have already fallen into a disadvantage. Without that absolute advantage of being able to handle any situation calmly, they cannot be too rigid about their so-called 'insistence.'"
The Brahma Demon King nodded slightly, agreeing with the Master of Victory's assessment: "In the early stages of the war between gods and demons, your divine clan has also abandoned comrades more than once. If they still had the strength they possessed before their last setback, and we didn't have the Top Ten Ancient Beasts, I believe they would have simply crushed us without caring whether we really set traps."
However, the remaining Demon Lords in the Demon Clan grew anxious below. They couldn't understand how the Brahma Demon King could remain so calm.
Did he not know the importance of the Demon’s Swamp?
Did he not realize that it absolutely could not fall again?
"Cough cough, Lord Demon King, Master of Victory, regardless of their intentions, since it has been confirmed that they are advancing towards the realm of demons, shouldn't we stop wasting time? If we withdraw to the Demon’s Swamp early and make arrangements, we can definitely exert considerable power, making them only able to gaze longingly at the Demon’s Swamp!"
"Exactly! If we have the cooperation of the Game God Sect, perhaps we can form a pincer attack when they are hindered in their assault. This would be enough to cause them to collapse in one battle and significantly weaken their resistance when we establish our reputation and advance into the southern continent plains. Hehe, I wonder if Master of Victory is interested?"
Seemingly ignoring the grim faces of the elders under the Game God Sect, he maintained a calm smile: "Of course I am very interested. However, before that, we must establish a hope for victory; otherwise, if our pincer attack fails and they manage to defeat us one by one, I believe that is not what the Demon Clan wishes to see."
