During the day, Lin Qiye asked Wan Meng to inform them to gather their troops.
The four rulers didn't dare to ask any more questions. They immediately gathered their forces urgently.
"Good. Now, reduce the defensive line and immediately evacuate the citizens at the border. After ensuring the people have entered the inner regions, we will attack the outer demon nests."
Lin Qiye pointed at a red-circled area on the defense map.
The four rulers were stunned.
"S-Sir? Are you asking us to attack the demon nests?" The few of them could not believe their ears.
Lin Qiye had asked them to attack the demon nests that were many times stronger than them.
"That's right. The relocation of the citizens must be done as soon as possible. I'll give you ten days. After ten days, you must launch a full-scale attack on the demon nests."
"Ten days?"
"An all-out attack?"
The four rulers were stunned.
They had to launch an attack on all demon nests within ten days.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtSuch an action was no different from poking hundreds of hornet's nests at the same time.
One was enough to be fatal, let alone hundreds of them at the same time. It was unimaginable how exciting it would be.
"Lord Holy Infant, shouldn't you reconsider this matter? With our current military strength, I'm afraid we won't be able to deal with so many demon nests..."
The four rulers had long faces.
Lin Qiye smiled.
"Don't be afraid. I'm not asking you to die. Your mission is not to fight the demon nests head-on. You only need to lure them out of the nest."
Lin Qiye was now well aware of the demon clan's strength.
Even the Heavenly God Palace had fallen apart under their surprise attack, so he naturally could not expect the four great empires to resist them head-on.
"But, Sir, the high-level demon nest is restless. According to our surveillance, we've already found traces of several Celestial Realm demons."
The four rulers believed in Lin Qiye's strength. However, no matter how strong he was, he was only an individual. He couldn't win against the entire demon clan.
"You don't need to worry about this matter. The Heavenly God Palace has arranged for over a hundred experts to come and help. They will deal with those guys on their own. You only need to reduce the line of defense and block those low-level demons."
Lin Qiye smiled indifferently.
He told a "little lie." If he told them the Heavenly God Palace had been destroyed by the demons, the four great empires would definitely collapse.
When the four rulers heard that the Heavenly God Palace had sent over a hundred experts to help them deal with the demons, they were excited.
"Really? This is great!"
"No wonder there was such a terrifying energy fluctuation from the southwest. It turns out that the seniors of the Heavenly God Palace are fighting against the demons. We have hope now!"
The power of Hall Master Hong's self-destruction had spread to almost half of the world.
Even though it had become extremely weak by the time it reached the four rulers, as Immortal Realm experts, they could still sense how terrifying that power was.
They did not know what had happened.
Now that Lin Qiye said the Heavenly God Palace had come to help, they immediately assumed it was caused by the battle between the experts of the Heavenly God Palace and the demons.
"Alright, this mission is important, so you must carry it out strictly. Remember, you only need to lure the demons out of the nest. Don't do anything unnecessary!"
"Yes!"
"Understood!"
The four rulers replied in excitement and seriousness.
After giving the order, Lin Qiye cut off the communication.
Wan Meng watched from the side, somewhat puzzled.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏm"Master, what are you trying to do? After those demons have crushed the Heavenly God Palace, they'll turn around to deal with you. If you provoke them now, won't you be bringing trouble to yourself in advance?"
Lin Qiye looked at Wan Meng and shook his head. He smiled and said, "Didn't you say that after the demons crushed the Heavenly God Palace, they would soon turn around to deal with me? Since I can't escape this fate, I might as well take advantage of the opportunity in front of me."
"Opportunity? What opportunity?"
Wan Meng was confused.
Lin Qiye patiently explained to her because he needed Wan Meng's help for what was to come.
"According to Zhao Yu and the guys from the Heavenly God Palace, they split up into many small teams to break out of the siege when they were surrounded by the demons.
"Hall Master Qi led the main force of the Heavenly God Palace, but just like Zhao Yu, he broke out of the encirclement first. There should be many members at the Human Immortal Realm and the Earth Immortal Realm who are scattered outside.
"The demons will eliminate the remnants of the Heavenly God Palace first before turning around to deal with me, the weakest one."
Since Lin Qiye found out the demons' ultimate goal was not to devour him, he finally understood why they had not sent out any powerful forces to deal with him.
To the demons, devouring him might just be something they did in passing. What they really wanted was something that involved a higher level. It was even likely that they planned to steal the world power that had once given birth to countless powerhouses.
Wan Meng nodded, but she still didn't understand.
"But this is a good thing for you. At least you'll have more time to become stronger. Why do you still want to provoke them?"
Lin Qiye shook his head.
"Even if I have more time, it won't be enough for me to make a breakthrough. Therefore, I can only borrow the power of the demons to make those guys from the Heavenly God Palace willingly offer their strength to me."
Hearing this, Wan Meng finally understood.
"You mean to let the four empires draw out the demons to besiege you, create a crisis, and then force those guys to offer their energy to help you break through?"
