CHAPTER 239: CHAPTER 226 HOW CAN THE INSULTS BE SO UGLY!

The towering figure had already undergone a drastic change in expression, but the Demon Clan below had not yet detected anything amiss, mistakenly thinking that the Overlord Tiger was still worried for the Crown Prince, and couldn’t help but say, "The Crown Prince is always cautious and possesses many treasured objects to defend himself, he will certainly be fine, he..."

"Silence." A deep growl resounded.

The Demon Clan members below were startled and dared not speak any longer.

Above on the high platform stood the Clan Leader of the White Tiger race and also the current strongest member of the Demon Clan, Hu Yang, who was standing there with an extremely ugly expression on his face.

His senses had not been mistaken.

This could not possibly be some misunderstanding.

Demon Clan!

An overwhelming horde of the Demon Clan was heading straight for the Demon Realm.

Hu Yang had no time to bother with what the Demon Clan members below were saying; his figure flashed, and he instantly disappeared from his spot.

While the Demon Clan had not yet arrived, he must discuss with the other Demon Clan Supremes to see what kind of unforeseen event had occurred in the meantime.

Why were the Demon Clan suddenly targeting the Demon Clan!

The Demon Clan did not hide their tracks in the slightest, and soon, all three clans had received the news.

Lin Bai smiled faintly, his heart already holding a well-devised plan.

The members of the Demon Clan were terrified and clueless about how things had developed to this point.

The Demon Clan were warlike; they didn’t care whom they fought, as long as there was a battle, they were happy.

For a time, the atmosphere among the three clans was each unique.

The Demon Clan Supremes tried everything to make contact with the Greedy Demon Venerable of the Demon World.

Among the several Demon Lords in the Demon World, the Greedy Demon Venerable, true to his name, was the most greedy, but also the easiest to bribe. The Demon Clan had mainly succeeded in bribing this Greedy Demon Venerable in the past years, striving to prevent the Demon Clan from being dragged into the flames of war.

But this time. There was no word from the Greedy Demon Venerable, yet the Demon Clan brazenly initiated war on the Demon Clan!

Then all those things they had bribed the Greedy Demon Venerable with, weren’t they just given for free?

However, when they finally made strenuous efforts to contact the Greedy Demon Venerable, his only response was: "When two tigers fight, there is no room for onlookers."

The Demon Clan wanted to say more, but the Greedy Demon Venerable directly stopped replying.

"Damn it! Over the years, how much have we given to the Greedy Demon Venerable, and now he wants to dismiss us with just one sentence?"

The Demon Clan Supremes were furiously enraged.

"Without him, we really have no other options."

"What should we do? The Demon World is completely refusing to communicate, must this battle really be fought?

"Then let’s fight! We, the Demon Clan, are second to none!"

"That’s something you can say to deceive outsiders, but how can you even deceive yourself?"

Compared to the Human Clan and the Demon Clan, be it in terms of top combat power or numbers, the Demon Clan were far inferior.

To defeat the Demon Clan, the Demon Clan only need to dispatch three or four Demon Lords, and that would be more than enough!

The scene was enveloped in silence.

After a long while.

Hu Yang’s voice, hoarse, finally spoke: "The Demon Clan’s power is great, we cannot fight them with brute force. At this moment, the only one who can help us is the Human Clan."

"Right, there is still the Human Clan! We now have a common enemy with the Human Clan; they will surely help us!

"The Human Clan has a large number; let them fight at the forefront, and we will provide support from the rear."

"If we actively seek alliance, the Human Clan will definitely agree this time."

"Right, at worst we will not expect any benefits from the Human Clan."

A group of Demon Clan Supremes discussed, while also dispatching an Envoy to meet with Lin Bai.

When the Demon Clan officially entered the territory of the Demon Realm, the Envoy of the Demon Clan had also arrived at the Human Realm.

This time, Lin Bai did not have the Demon Clan Envoy turned away; too lazy to show up himself, he let Lin Ao meet with the Envoy of the Demon Clan.

Not being rejected at the door, the envoy of the Demon Clan was immediately galvanized.

It seemed that the Human Clan also wanted to take this opportunity to form an alliance with the Demon Clan; their mission should be easily accomplished.

The envoy of the Demon Clan entered with a smile on his face and began, "Sect Master Lin Ao, I have been tasked to represent the Demon Clan in hopes of forming an alliance with the Human Clan to resist the Demon Clan together."

Lin Ao neither agreed nor declined, only looking at him with a seemingly amused expression: "Oh?"

The Demon Clan Envoy, thinking there was a chance, quickly said: "The Demon Clan is powerful, and our two clans are inherently dependent on each other. The Demon Clan attacked the Human Realm first and now they seek to occupy the Demon Realm. Such arrogant actions! Our Demon Clan has already made up our mind; we must crush the Demon Clan’s arrogance. Since both our clans share the desire to resist the Demon Clan, why not form an official alliance? What are your thoughts, Sect Master?"

Lin Ao, having received instructions from Lin Bai, now carried a subtle smile and indifferently asked: "Oh? Regarding this alliance, I wonder what the Demon Clan requests this time?"

The Demon Clan Envoy, likely thinking Lin Ao looked easy to talk to, hastened to say: "This time, it amounts to the Demon Clan helping the Human Clan resist the Demon Clan. How about this—Human Clan sets up formations along the border of the Demon Realm and the Demon Realm, taking charge of the frontline battle, while our Demon Clan handles logistics and supplies. We will drag the Demon Clan to their deaths in this war!"

Lin Ao almost laughed out loud.

Was this Demon Clan Envoy really here to ask for help?

He’s totally out of his mind, isn’t he?

The Demon Clan attacks them, and they want the Human Clan to be the vanguard?

What kind of delusional dream is that!

Lin Ao’s smile became even brighter, as he smiled and said: "This proposal is good, but there’s no need for logistics support, our Human Clan can bring our own."

"Really?" The Demon Clan Envoy was instantly overjoyed: "That would be best. Sect Master, shall we sign the agreement right now?"

Lin Ao sneered coldly. His expression changed in an instant, he stood up, and unleashed a barrage of curses at the Demon Clan Envoy.

Things like "Your face is so thick, just having you stand on the border would probably keep the Demon Clan out."

And "You trash, your own kind is facing extermination, yet you want the Human Clan to take the fall. I think you’ve got a big head."

As he cursed, it all turned into an aggressive tirade that can’t be written down.

The Demon Clan Envoy’s face turned green and red in rapid succession, his expression changing constantly, a rather spectacular sight indeed.

In the end, a myriad of words coalesced into one phrase: "Get the hell out!"

Thus, the Demon Clan Envoy was thrown out.

He began to doubt his life choices.

This Sect Master of theirs, how could he curse so unpleasantly...

Sniveling.

If it were before, he would have just walked away after being expelled.

But this time.

He dared not leave.

The entire Demon Clan was still waiting for the Human Clan to save them.

The Demon Clan Envoy could only grit his teeth and ask people to send word again. After several attempts, Lin Ao did not show up but directly had a list sent over through his subordinates.

"If the Demon Clan wants help, it can be done. First, you must collect the items on this list as the cost for assistance."

Upon seeing the list, the Demon Clan Envoy nearly fainted.

They had already made outrageous demands for resources from the Human Clan before, but this time, the Human Clan’s conditions were triple their previous demands!

Scouring the entire Demon Clan might not even yield all these items.

He wanted to say something more but was once again thrown out.

Left with no choice, the Demon Clan Envoy had to bitterly hand over the Human Clan’s terms to the high-ranking members of the Demon Clan.

The Demon Clan Supremes looked at the list and immediately flew into a rage.

This Human Clan was far too oppressive, with such conditions, if the Demon Clan agreed, then why would they even fight the Demon Clan, they might as well just submit to the Human Clan!

"The Human Clan is truly too much! We absolutely cannot accept such terms!

"But the Demon Clan..."

"The Demon Clan can’t possibly devote their entire force against our Demon Clan. Think of something, and negotiate with the Demon Clan again!"

"Alas."

That was the consensus, but the Demon Clan was still a picture of gloom and doom.

The Human Clan and the Demon Clan, they were originally unable to defeat either.

Now with the Demon Clan attacking and the Human Clan indifferent, wouldn’t they only face extinction?

These Demon Clan Supremes couldn’t understand it no matter how much they thought about it.

Why on earth did the Demon Clan suddenly attack the Demon Clan?

If they knew that all this was simply because Shi Nian was annoyed by the presence of that little White Tiger, they would probably be even more speechless.
