Chapter 84 Enemies, Friends

[In the 373rd year of the demon calendar, the demon king Jin Bing represented the "Equal Heaven Court" and made a pact with the ancestor witch Hou Tu.]

[First, Hou Tu will no longer participate in the alliance between the twelve witch ancestors, and the many witch tribes under the Hou Tu tribe will no longer use heavy hands on the battlefield. From now on, the entire tribe will start to act as an actor...]

[Second, after the Equal Heavenly Court defeats the Supreme Heavenly Court, Hou Tu will work with the Demon King to build the "Reincarnation Underworld" to be in charge of the reincarnation of all the spirits in the prehistoric world, and in the process weaken the uniqueness of the human race as the destined protagonist.]

【Third, Hou Tu agreed to instigate the Wu clan whose thoughts had not yet been completely distorted in the various Wu clan tribes, in order to weaken the Wu clan's power and strengthen the Equality Heaven.】

[As a price for agreeing to the above conditions, the Demon King also needs to save the lives of the eleven witch ancestors, and also promise to treat the witch clan equally. ]

[You cannot seek revenge on innocent witches, nor can you overly oppress the witch people like Emperor Jun's Heavenly Court did.]

[The new Wu Clan will abolish the original tribal independence system, pursue equality with all other races, and loyally obey all orders from the Equal Heavenly Court! ]

[After the covenant was formed, the witch clan officially split into two factions. One faction, led by Dijiang and the other eleven witch ancestors, wanted to enslave all the clans with force, dominate the prehistoric world, and recreate the supremacy of the three clans in the ancient times.]

[The other faction is led by Hou Tu, who advocates equality among all races. Although they cannot switch sides for the time being, as long as the Equal Heaven Court gains a certain advantage over the Supreme Heaven Court on the battle line, Hou Tu will immediately lead her people to switch sides! ]

[After signing the covenant, Hou Tu was about to leave. ]

[But you hesitated for a moment, and then asked Hou Tu to bring Xuan Ming to your camp.]

[Hou Tu was stunned for a moment, and shook her head, saying that her younger sister was always impulsive and not as easy to talk to as herself. She would discuss with her brothers every day about which piece of land in Zhongzhou to divide...]

[Impulsive? Indeed.]

[You recall that in your previous life, when the human court was about to fall, you clearly asked her and Fuxi to seek refuge in Wahuang Heaven, but Xuanming was so stubborn that she refused to leave. In the end, Fuxi asked a saint to help and forcibly took her away.]

[But... after all, you are husband and wife. In this life, you really don't want her to be embarrassed by being captured. Even though she doesn't know you in this life and doesn't like you...]

[You repeatedly asked Hou Tu to persuade Xuan Ming to rebel. After a while, the way Hou Tu looked at you changed. She seemed to be very curious about the mental state of you, the demon king.]

[And you are only seven or eight epochs at most. Compared with an ancestor witch like Xuanming who is hundreds or thousands of epochs old, uh...]

[Hou Tu's heart was full of gossip, but even though it was hard for her to keep a straight face, she still agreed to your request and planned to go back and try her best to persuade my little sister to rebel.]

[In your gratitude, Hou Tu left the Shouyang Mountain area...]

[You quickly returned to the "Demon Emperor's Palace" and found the Heavenly Officials who were still criticizing Xuandu for collecting the Wu Clan's local specialties, and announced your covenant with Hou Tu to them.]

[The Heavenly Officials were immediately delighted. If they could really recruit some Wu people to act as actors or traitors, the pressure on the battlefield would be much less! ]

[Great Chief... No, His Majesty the Demon King is victorious! ]

[You smiled and appeased them, then calmed down and announced the future strategic direction to them: Our Equal Heavenly Court is currently thriving, while the perverse actions of the Sun Star Lord and the Witch Clan are gradually undermining their foundations. As one rises while the other falls, our army will surely win.]

[But our current disadvantage is real, and it is necessary to objectively acknowledge that the enemy is stronger than us. ]

[Therefore, our strategy from now on should be mainly defensive, and we should try to avoid large-scale battles with the enemy as much as possible, so as not to lose manpower in vain. We should mainly use the strategy of delaying the battle! ]

[If the enemy is strong and we are weak, we cannot have the "quick victory theory". We should fight the enemy as long as possible, delay time, and delay development. Anyway, the enemy is using the "Demon Disintegration" self-destruction style of play. The longer it drags on, the weaker they will be, and the stronger we will be. ]

[When the balance of power tips in the opposite direction, that will be the time for us to launch a strategic counterattack. The Sun Star Lord will die, and the eleven witch ancestors will be captured.]

[All crimes will be thoroughly settled! ]

[The celestial officials nodded firmly. They all had absolute confidence in victory. This was not only their confidence in the strategic analysis, but also their confidence in you... As long as you stand with them, they will never waver, even if they die without a burial place.]

[Great Chief, victory! ]

... [Time passed little by little, and the war between the two heavens was happening all the time. ]

[In the 20th day of the 7th period of the 373rd year of the Demon Calendar, Xuandu, under the order of the Demon King, fought against the great wizard Houyi. After a fierce battle, Xuandu defeated Houyi and captured 100,000 wizard soldiers. The morale of the Equal Heavenly Court was greatly boosted! ]

[In the 373rd year of the Demonic Calendar, during the 2nd period of the 9th year of the Yuan Dynasty, the Great Wizard Houyi and Xiangliu allied with an army of 100,000 to attack the Eastern Wasteland. The Demon King led the Qilin King and many other human Daluo to meet them.]

[Hou Yi was badly defeated in this battle, and Xiang Liu was also defeated as a result. One hundred thousand wizard soldiers were captured again...]

[In the 374th year of the Demonic Calendar, the Great Wizard Houyi and Taiyi Xingjun joined forces with 100,000 troops to attack the Western Wilds. The Demon King led the True Phoenix King and many demon clan Daluo to fight.]

[Houyi was badly defeated in this battle and fled, while Taiyi Xingjun was unfortunately captured, and the 100,000-strong Lich Alliance was captured again...]

……

At the foot of Mount Buzhou, in Pangu Temple.

Dijiang sat in the middle, and the other eleven ancestor witches were on the left and right.

Below the twelve witch ancestors were the twelve great witches. They were dejected. Why? It was because they had lost...

Di Jiang looked at his eleven brothers and sisters with a gloomy face, and spoke after a long while:

"One of you betrayed me."

The eleven ancestor witches looked at each other in bewilderment...

Red-haired Zhurong burst into laughter at that time:

"Brother, look at what you said! It can't be me, right?"

The blue-haired Gonggong also laughed:
"Brother, you know me well. If I had rebelled, I would have gone to Shouyang Mountain long ago!"

Shebisi, Jumang, Ruoshou and other ancestor witches also patted their chests and expressed their loyalty to their eldest brother Dijiang:
Loyal! Sincerity!
Di Jiang sneered:
"Really? Then why do the great witches under your command always suffer defeat? They lose many soldiers and generals every time. Nine out of ten witches from our twelve tribes are left with nothing. They have all been captured by that little dragon!"

"The Sun Star Lord also accused me of taking advantage of both families. I was not satisfied with taking Zhongzhou and wanted to take fifty sacks of natural treasures from Shouyang Mountain..."

The witch ancestors were suddenly speechless, and the great witches below also lowered their heads even lower...

Indeed, ever since they conquered and slaughtered three parts of the Northern Wilderness, the witch clan's record has become worse and worse. The great witch was defeated and fled, and witch soldiers were captured one after another, sent in hundreds of thousands, and the tribes were almost emptied!
Nicknamed: Wu Shiwan.

What’s even more outrageous is that every time they joined forces with the Heavenly Court to attack, the Witch Clan was the first to collapse. Once the Witch Clan collapsed, the Heavenly Soldiers could only collapse as well.

The great wizards ran away quickly every time and suffered no losses, but many star gods, demon commanders and others sent by the Heavenly Court were implicated and captured!

So far, of the more than 300 Daluo in the Heavenly Court, almost 50 have been captured. It is no wonder that the Sun Star Lord cursed...

Dijiang looked at them gloomily and said solemnly:

"I don't care what you are up to, but my Wu clan is now facing the danger of life and death. In this battle, we have no way out."

"I'll give you two days to rest. After that, I'll personally supervise the battle. In this battle, we must kill several Golden Immortals from Shouyang Mountain!"

The witches trembled, and quickly sat up straight and shouted:
"Yes!"

But Hou Tu's eyes were obscure.
