Chapter 867 The Current State of the Demon Race
It was precisely for this reason that the higher-ups of Xiqi began to consider having this unfamiliar powerhouse, Zixiao, defeat the Three Pure Ones! However, they knew in their hearts that the possibility of Zixiao defeating the Three Pure Ones was indeed quite low, after all, the Three Pure Ones were not someone that just any powerhouse could defeat!
Besides praying in their hearts that Zixiao could defeat the Three Pure Ones, the talented people of Xiqi also began to set up protective measures near the granary!
But how could their defensive measures withstand the overwhelming power of the Yin Shang? In order to bring back all the military supplies as soon as possible, Kong Xuan took the lead and charged to the front line!
Because he had already swept through Xiqi once before, Kong Xuan knew exactly where the granaries were. Therefore, Kong Xuan's sweep was very easy. He only wasted a little time when he was repelling the talented people of Xiqi. Collecting military rations was just a matter of a quick sweep of the Five-Colored Divine Light!
However, this time, in order to seize back as much of the Yin Shang's military supplies as possible, Kong Xuan also brought a group of powerful disciples of the Jie Sect, who were tasked with finding hidden granaries in Xiqi that were difficult for outsiders to discover!
Once the disciples of the Jie Sect discovered the hidden granary, they immediately alerted Kong Xuan, the powerful leader, through fireworks! Ultimately, through the combined efforts of the Jie Sect disciples and Kong Xuan, 99% of the military rations that had been transferred by Zi Xiao were recovered.
As for the 0.1% of military rations that were not recovered, it was because the granary was hidden too deep and the surrounding defenses were too strict. If a direct attack were launched, it could very likely cause unnecessary damage!
In addition, the Yin Shang dynasty needed time to repair the magic array. The Yin Shang leaders were also worried that if Xiqi really ran out of food, the talented people of Xiqi would fight to the death with the Yin Shang in order to find a way for Xiqi to survive, causing some unnecessary damage. In the end, they chose to leave them some surplus food to give the talented people of Xiqi some psychological comfort and to buy as much time as possible to repair the array!
To prevent the skilled individuals of Xiqi from finding large quantities of grain for Yin Shang while the array masters in Yin Shang were repairing the array, the skilled individuals of Yin Shang did everything they could to intercept and block those who wanted to leave Xiqi in search of grain!
Xiqi was originally a vassal state, and the talented people who came to join Xiqi were not very strong. Faced with the joint encirclement and suppression by Yin Shang and the immortals and gods of Jiejiao, they had no power to resist. Even if Yin Shang was only able to launch a counterattack, it was still able to block all the talented people of Xiqi!
……
After returning to the Primordial World, Zi Xiao did not immediately recuperate from her injuries, but instead pondered how to help Xiqi rise again! After some deliberation, Zi Xiao finally set her sights on the demon race, which had been in decline since the Lich War!
After the Lich War ended, the demon race, which originally belonged to the protagonists of heaven and earth, declined directly because the demon race's high-ranking members were almost all wiped out!
Although the ten sons of the Demon Emperor Jun survived, they became much more gentle and refined due to the teachings of Qingqiu, and they were not too obsessed with revenge!
The ten little golden crows chose to let go not because they had let go of the hatred in their hearts, but because they chose to follow their hearts. After all, the power of the Witch Clan was not something that these ten orphans and a few demon saints who had barely survived the Great Tribulation could shake!
Besides, the ten little golden crows did not intend to reveal to outsiders that they possessed a large amount of resources, after all, as the saying goes, it's not the thief you should fear, but the one who has his eye on you.
If outsiders were to find out that they possess resources left behind by the demon race, who knows how much trouble it would cause? In the process of dealing with the chaos, if they accidentally anger the management of Qingqiu and are kicked out, they would become like innocent children holding gold, turning into resource packages in the eyes of some powerful figures!
In general, aside from the resources used by the ten little golden crows for their cultivation, they don't usually reveal too many resources. Besides, like other creatures of Qingqiu, they also complete tasks issued by Qingqiu in exchange for resources!
Of course, the ten little golden crows did not actually receive any mission rewards. Instead, they used the mission to find a legitimate reason for the resources they had!
