Chapter 13883 Why don’t you go, old man?
Ling Xiao continued, "As for us, we know nothing about them, like a blind man groping in the dark, not even knowing the number of enemies, their types of troops, and the distribution of their strong men.
If we continue like this, we will surely fail, just like hitting a rock with an egg, with no chance of winning. I suggest that the most urgent task is to find out the overall strength of the Demon Sea. Only by knowing ourselves and the enemy can we have a chance of survival in this upcoming war. "
Ye Tiannan shook his head helplessly, his action full of frustration and powerlessness.
He spread his hands, smiled bitterly and said, "How can it be easier said than done! The Demon Sea is now completely controlled by the demon clan, and has become a closed and strict kingdom of God. Our people can't sneak into it at all, and the security there is as strict as an iron barrel.
Every checkpoint is guarded by powerful demons. Their perception is as sharp as that of wild beasts. Any unusual movement will be noticed. Even the abnormal flapping of a bird's wings may alert them.
What's more, demons and humans are very different in appearance, breath, living habits, etc. They are simply two completely different races. It is extremely difficult for us humans to get away with it, just like asking fish to fly in the sky!"
The red-robed chief priest suddenly spoke. His voice was low and slow, as if it came from a distant abyss.
He looked straight at Ling Xiao with a sharp gaze, with a hint of temptation and expectation in his eyes: "Your people can't get in, but Tyrant Emperor should be able to do it, right? Tyrant Emperor's hiding method is unparalleled in the world. In the past, he was famous in the martial arts world for his elusiveness and hard to find whereabouts.
What's more, Tyrant Emperor is a demon cultivator, and he carries an aura similar to that of demons. If you carefully disguise yourself as a demon and enter the Demon Sea, it won't be difficult. Although this task is arduous, it may be a good opportunity for you to show your skills."
Ling Xiao sneered, and that laugh was full of ridicule and anger, as if a ignited gunpowder barrel exploded instantly.
His eyes widened as he glared at the red-robed head priest, and he shouted, "What do you mean, old man? We haven't even started the war with the Demon Sea yet, and you want to start an internal conflict? Your words are clearly trying to push me into the fire pit! Although I, Ling Xiao, am confident that I am not weak, I am definitely not a pawn that can be manipulated by others."
The red-robed chief priest had a blank expression on his face, as if Ling Xiao's anger was just a breeze on his face and could not cause the slightest ripple.
He still spoke calmly, "I'm not targeting you, I'm just being realistic. With your ability as Tyrant Emperor, you are the perfect person to take on this important task. Your concealment skills are profound and unfathomable, and few opponents in the martial arts world can detect your tracks. If even you can't complete this task, who else can do it?"
Ling Xiao looked directly into the eyes of the red-robed chief priest. His eyes were like two sharp swords, trying to pierce through the disguise of the red-robed chief priest.
He said without flinching, "You are a powerful old man, and you are also a well-known figure in the martial arts world. It would be easy for you to get some information. Why do you have to embarrass a little junior like me? If you take action, what can the strong men in the sea of demons do to you? What is your intention in shirking responsibility like this?"
The red-robed chief priest said calmly, "Emperor Tyrant doesn't know that once I leave, the sea of demons will definitely notice it. I carry the aura of the Holy Temple, and that aura is like a bright light in the dark night to the demons. It is too obvious.
But you are different. As long as you act carefully, with your ability as the Tyrant Emperor, you have a greater chance of success. Your ability to hide allows you to thrive in danger. This is your advantage and your capital for taking on this important task."
Ling Xiao sneered, his laughter was full of disdain and ridicule: "Have you ever thought about what would happen if I were discovered, old man? The sea of demons hate humans to the core. Once they find out that I am a demon disguised as a human, they will definitely attack me in droves.
At that time, I will not only face the siege of countless demons and powerful men, but I may also be skinned alive and eaten alive by them, leaving no place for burial. You want me to take such a big risk just because of a few words. How selfish and ruthless you are!"
The red-robed chief priest's expression remained unchanged, as if Ling Xiao's question was just a whisper in the breeze.
He said slowly: "There are risks in doing anything. Since you have the ability, you should bear the corresponding responsibilities.
There is no such thing as something good that can be obtained without hard work in this world. If you want to maintain peace in this chaotic world and if you want to provide a glimmer of hope for the people of the Dazhen Dynasty, someone must step forward and take the risk.
Tyrant Emperor, you are extremely powerful, and your method of hiding is unparalleled in the world. If you are not willing to take on this important responsibility, who else can take the risk for the people of this world?"
Ling Xiao's smile became colder and colder. It was like icicles condensed under the eaves in the cold winter, so chilly that it seemed to freeze the air around it.
"In that case, why don't you go in person? Could it be that you, an old man, are afraid of death?" His voice suddenly rose, carrying undisguised sarcasm and provocation, and every word was like a sharp dagger, stabbing straight at the red-robed chief priest.
When their eyes met, it was as if two invisible lightning bolts collided violently in the air, producing bursts of sparks.
As the arguments raged, the atmosphere suddenly became tense, the air in the hall seemed to freeze, and everyone felt it became difficult to breathe, as if a storm was about to rage in this small space.
Seeing this, the Water King frowned. He knew very well that this was not the time for internal strife, so he quickly said, "We really need someone to go deep into the Demon Sea right now. This is a matter of the overall situation.
The Demon Sea has been gathering a large number of troops this time, and its ambitions are obvious. If we cannot grasp their movements in time, once they launch an attack, the Dazhen Dynasty will be doomed.
You are all talented pillars of the dynasty, you should put the overall situation first and not let your momentary emotions ruin important things."
Liu Heng also quickly echoed, "Although Tyrant Emperor has superb concealment skills and is well-known in the martial arts world, the Demon Sea is not an ordinary place after all. There are demons and monsters everywhere, and there are many powerful people, who are full of hostility and vigilance towards humans.
Once the identity is exposed, the consequences are unpredictable. At the very least, you will be seriously injured, and at the worst, your life will be in danger. Therefore, this matter needs to be considered carefully and we must work together to come up with a foolproof plan. "
However, the red-robed chief priest suddenly said in a sarcastic tone: "Perhaps when Tyrant Emperor went to the Demon Sea, he was spotted by the Demon Sea King and switched to the other side. Then we will be in trouble.
Tyrant Emperor, you have always been unruly, and you have no deep hatred with the Demon Sea. If the King of the Demon Sea tempts you with high positions, generous salaries, treasures and beauties, it is hard to say whether you can resist such temptation. "
As he spoke, the corners of his mouth raised in a mocking smile, his eyes full of suspicion and disdain.
