If the emperor does not bring reinforcements, the Demon Emperor can easily break through Dongyang Valley, cross the Dingbei Mountains, and enter the land of Zhongzhou in one fell swoop.
If the emperor personally leads the army to rescue Dongyang Valley, the defense power of Tianlong Pass will be very empty.
By that time, the two sages of the demon clan and several demon commanders will lead an army of tens of millions to attack Tianlong Pass, and Tianlong Pass will definitely be lost.
All in all, the demons had an absolute advantage and took the initiative.
No matter whether the emperor reinforces Dongyang Valley or not, he will fall into a passive situation and must lose a pass.
After Master Black Feather finished speaking, the hall fell into silence.
The commanders secretly communicated and discussed, but they still could not come up with a countermeasure.
This plan of the Demon King is simply an unsolvable situation that cannot be solved!
Even the wise and mighty emperor, who knew astronomy and geography, could make calculations, and was familiar with ancient and modern times, was stumped by the Demon Emperor's plan.
No matter how wise and strategic the emperor, imperial masters and commanders are, they are still limited by the lack of troops and strong men and cannot cope with it at all.
In terms of the number of strong people, the human race is far less than the demon race.
In terms of military strength, the Demon Clan's army numbered 30 million, which was almost four times that of the Human Clan.
How should this battle be fought?
No one has an answer in their mind.
After a long silence, the emperor finally spoke and gave the order.
"Ji Tianxing, I order you to set off immediately to find out the movements of the demon army!
You must find out whether the Demon King has led his army to Dongyang Valley.
Only when this is confirmed can we proceed with the next step of planning."
Ji Tianxing didn't waste any time. He cupped his fists and saluted and said he obeyed his orders. He immediately turned around and left the hall, flying towards the Dingbei Mountains.
The emperor's eyes swept across the crowd, and he ordered in a deep voice: "Commanders, please return to your respective camps immediately, prepare your army, and stand ready to attack at any time."
The four god generals, the two old marshals, Yun Zhongqi and Long Yunxiao and others immediately bowed to accept the order and exited the hall.
After a while, the hall became quiet, and only the emperor, the emperor master and the Black Feather Divine Master were left.
The emperor had a worried look on his face, looked at Black Feather Divine Master with stern eyes, and asked in a deep voice: "Great Divine Master, you also understand the current situation. The demon clan is powerful and our clan has few soldiers, so it is difficult to cope with it.
This emperor just wants to know, where is the master of the palace?
The land of Zhongzhou is already in danger and is in danger of overturning at any time, so why hasn’t the palace lord shown up yet?”
The Imperial Master also felt the same and spoke in agreement: "Great Divine Master, the land of Zhongzhou is nominally the territory of our human race, but in fact it is the territory of the Imperial Palace.
As the number one martial arts holy land in the mainland, the Imperial Palace governs all ethnic groups in the four directions and should protect the people of all ethnic groups in the mainland.
Now that the demons are coming fiercely and Zhongzhou is about to fall, the master of the palace has mysteriously disappeared. This is really... inappropriate!"
It was obvious that both the emperor and the emperor's master had some resentment in their hearts.
When the demon army attacks, the Imperial Palace and the human race should join forces to resist the demon army.
It's better now. The master of the palace is nowhere to be found, and only the human race is left to support it independently. How can it withstand it?
Master Black Feather was questioned by the emperor, but his expression remained unchanged and he said in an indifferent tone: "The master of the palace has an extraordinary status and his whereabouts have always been mysterious. How can I know about it?
Even though the master of the palace did not show up, I will lead all the emperor's sons and divine masters to participate in this war and resist the demon army with all their strength.
The Imperial Palace has done its best. If Your Majesty still has complaints, you can go and tell the Palace Master. It is useless to say this to me."
"You..." The Imperial Master suddenly glared angrily, and his white beard flew up.
The emperor also frowned, a flash of anger flashing in his eyes.
But he did not lose his composure and asked in an indifferent tone: "Great Master, please try to contact the palace master and ask the palace master to show up as soon as possible.
If the demons really invade the land of Zhongzhou, it will not be good for us!"
Divine Master Black Feather nodded slightly and said expressionlessly: "A few days ago, I already sent a message to the palace master and urged him once.
I believe that the Palace Master will show up within the next few days."
"In the past few days?" The emperor frowned again and murmured in a low voice: "Is it two or three days, or ten or eight days? Will there be enough time to rescue Dongyang Valley?"
Divine Master Black Feather pretended not to hear these words, raised his hands and saluted, saying: "If there is nothing else, I will take my leave and go back to summon the master and the emperor's sons to prepare."
After saluting, he said goodbye and left, walking towards the outside of the hall.
However, when he was about to reach the entrance of the hall, his expression suddenly changed and he stopped.
The emperor and the emperor's master, who had sad faces, suddenly sensed something and immediately raised their heads and looked outside the hall door.
After just three breaths, a golden light like a sharp arrow flew from the night sky.
"Whoosh!"
In an instant, the golden light cut through the night, traveled a hundred miles away, and landed in front of the main hall.
After the golden light faded away, a tall, majestic figure appeared.
This man is a middle-aged man with white hair, wearing a purple robe embroidered with stars, exuding a domineering aura that dominates the world and is powerful all over the world.
There is no doubt that he is the master of the Imperial Palace, Gu Daoxuan.
"Emperor, you are well."
The master of the palace clasped his hands behind his back, stepped into the hall expressionlessly, and greeted the emperor from the distance.
When Divine Master Black Feather saw him returning, his eyes suddenly showed excitement, and he quickly bowed and saluted, "See you, Lord Palace Master."
The master of the palace waved his hand to signal him to excuse himself, and then led him towards the main hall.
The emperor and the emperor's master were greatly relieved when they saw the master of the palace finally appear, their eyes flashed with excitement.
"I've met the Lord of the Palace!"
Both of them cupped their hands and bowed to the master of the palace.
The master of the palace walked to the main hall and stood still, looking at the emperor calmly, and asked: "I never thought that the situation on the mainland would become so bad after leaving for about three months.
The demon's offensive is too strong and their pace is too fast!
I have just returned to Zhongzhou, and I would like to ask the emperor to inform you of the situation of the two armies."
With the palace master present, the emperor's pressure was reduced a lot and his mood improved a lot.
He nodded to the Imperial Master and motioned for the Imperial Master to explain the situation to the Palace Master.
The Imperial Master did not waste any time and quickly introduced the situation on the mainland and the situation of the two armies in short and precise words.
Ji Tianxing also sneaked into the Demon Clan camp and found out about the sacrificial ceremony. Everyone also overheard the Demon Emperor's plan, and the Imperial Master also told the Palace Master.
After the palace master learned of this situation, he frowned and thought for a moment, and then said in a majestic tone: "The demon clan has many soldiers and generals, and they have an absolute advantage. The demon emperor's plan is indeed difficult to crack.
However, the emperor does not need to worry, he only needs to guard Tianlong Pass with peace of mind.
If I personally go to Dongyang Valley and take charge, I will be able to resolve the Demon Emperor's conspiracy.
The terrain of Dongyang Valley is steep, making it easy to defend but difficult to attack.
I am personally stationed here, so one man can guard the gate and no one can open it."
