Chapter 1561 Temporary Truce

The reason why the civilizations of all races surrendered so easily in the past was mainly because they saw no hope.

After all, all the races at that time were basically fighting among themselves and had no time to care about the weaker civilizations.

In this situation of being isolated and helpless, they have no chance of winning against the terrifying offensive of the demon clan even if they fight to the death. Even if the entire clan dies in battle, what can they do?

It's nothing more than a sacrifice in vain, who will remember their sacrifice?

If this is the case, it is better to directly surrender to the demon clan. Although civilization will be destroyed, at least those in power can be preserved.

This is also why, when all the races encountered the demon army in the past, as long as the demons tried to persuade them to surrender, they would basically agree decisively.

Because fighting to the death would only mean sacrificing one's life in vain, while joining the demon clan would allow one to survive.

But the situation is different now. All races have achieved unification under the leadership of Guan Li.

The strength of the Ten Thousand Races is gradually approaching that of the Demon Race, which gives the Ten Thousand Races hope. Naturally, it is impossible for them to surrender to the Demon Race again.

After all, if given a choice, who would want to be a traitor to all races?

No civilization is willing to bear the infamy of being a lackey of the demons.

Compared to being the lackeys of the demons, they would rather be the heroes of all races. Even if they die on the battlefield, it is better than becoming demons.

Today, soldiers from all races have seen what happens when they become cannon fodder for the demons.

Since surrendering would mean becoming cannon fodder for the demons, it would be better to die in battle with honour.

"Master Demon General! What should we do next? Should we continue to attack the Ten Thousand Races?"

At this time, a demon emperor asked.

"Slow down the attack and reorganize the lost territory first!"

The wise demon general spoke quickly.

"Yes! Lord Demon General!"

The Demon God Emperor nodded without any hesitation.

After all, for Him, it doesn't matter whose orders he obeys, they are all the orders of the Demon General anyway.

After the Demon Emperor left, the Killing Demon General looked at the Wisdom Demon General with confusion.

"Wise Demon General! Why did you stop attacking?"

The Killing Demon General asked.

"Now that we have regained so much lost territory, if we don't properly rectify it, problems will easily arise!"

"Don't you know the saying, 'Don't chase after a desperate enemy?'"

"Now our demon race seems to have the upper hand, but most of the strongholds we destroyed were from those inferior races and civilizations among the myriad races!"

"Have you ever seen the strongholds of the human race, the Nine Pillar Gods, the Celestial Gods, etc., being lost?"

Faced with the doubtful voices, the wise demon general was not at all anxious, but explained slowly and calmly.

"Hiss! Now that you put it that way, it does make sense!"

The Killing Demon General gasped.

Just as the wise demon general said, during this period of time, not a single stronghold of the powerful tribes among all the races was captured. Instead, the armies attacking these strongholds were almost completely wiped out.

This is very telling. Although the demons are quite powerful nowadays, they are still far from being able to crush all other races.

With the current strength of the demon clan, if they were to go to war with all other clans, it would be hard to say who would win in the end.

Moreover, although the demons now have room to fight back, there are still many demon generals who are unable to take action.

They also need to break the seal of the Demon Emperor!

If the demons push too hard, all the races will inevitably be destroyed.

"Yeah! What you said makes sense!"

The Killing Demon General nodded quickly.

Just now, the wise demon general has explained the interests involved to Him.

If we push the Ten Thousand Races too hard at this moment, it might cause unnecessary trouble.

If it were the demons of the past, they would not care about these things at all, but the situation is different now. All races have gathered their strength.

Besides, all races do not need to be distracted to do other things, all their combat power can be put to use.

The God Emperors that the demon race can mobilize now are powerful, but may not be as many as those of the ten thousand races. This is also something that the wise demon generals should consider!

"Then follow your plan! Stop attacking the Ten Thousand Races and reorganize the recovered Demon Realms!"

The Killing Demon General was not stupid. After knowing the interests involved, he did not think of continuing the attack.

"Don't worry! The myriad races also suffered heavy casualties this time, and many civilizations were destroyed!"

"We are pushing too hard now! All the races will only unite against the outside world. If we give them a chance to breathe, conflicts may arise within the race!"

A sinister smile appeared on the wise demon general's lips.

He felt that this time some civilizations of the myriad races suffered such huge losses, while powerful civilizations such as the human race did not suffer too many casualties.

With such a strong contrast, there will definitely be races within the myriad races that are dissatisfied with this.

Once the seeds of contradiction are planted, they can take root and sprout at any time.

"Just wait! Maybe the myriad races will soon stage another good show! If the Human Emperor can't handle it, the myriad races may fall into civil strife again!"

The Wisdom Demon General spoke.

At this time, the Killing Demon General had not figured out the mystery.

Upon seeing this, the wise demon general also gave a simple explanation, which instantly made the murderous demon general's eyes light up.

"If this is true, then God is helping our demon clan!"

The Slaughter Demon General spoke.

Of course! These are just the guesses of the wise demon general! No one can tell whether the myriad races will be in turmoil.

But at least there is such a possibility. Ultimately it depends on how the Human Emperor responds. If he fails to respond well, the possibility of civil unrest is still very high.

Even though this civil strife is not as severe as the one that broke out in Heaven before, it can still cause quite an impact on all races.

It would be better if more civilizations were destroyed because of this incident!

In the meeting hall of all races!

Guan Li sat in the first seat, and in front of him were leaders or representatives of various civilizations.

However, compared with previous meetings, many civilizations were obviously absent this time.

But Guan Li knew very well that it was not that they did not want to come, but that they had all died in the battle!

The demon clan's crazy counterattack this time has had a significant impact on all races.

Although they fought desperately and killed many demon soldiers, the overall losses of all races were greater.

Many civilizations were destroyed by the demon army in this offensive and defensive battle.

"Everyone! I know what you want to say!"

"Although I am the leader of all races, I am also the emperor of the human race!"

"I am also very aware of the difficulties you are facing in this counterattack by the demons!"

"But I, Guan Li, ask myself, after we defeated the attacking army of the demons, our human race also sent support immediately!"

Seeing that the gods wanted to say something, Guan Li spoke first.

He was also very clear that this was the greatest loss in the history of all races.

The leaders of all civilizations must be feeling bad at this moment.

After all, Guan Li is not Fuxi, the emperor of mankind. The human race today is not as strong as it was back then, and the myriad races are not the same as they once were.

So this situation was all within Guan Li's expectations.

He could vaguely guess that the demons suddenly stopped their attack in order to prevent all races from uniting against the outside world and intensify internal conflicts.
