Chapter 1594 - 427: Besieging Wei to Rescue Zhao, Skies as Clear as Washed
The hungry ghosts in the Abyss Rift Valley are a bit confused.They hadn't encountered any doorstep demons for a long time; now the prices for demon materials have risen considerably because the sources have decreased and they are harder to obtain.
Just as some demons charged near the Abyss Rift Valley, most of the hungry ghosts hadn't even stuck their heads out to take a look before they were exterminated by the quick-reacting ghosts.
Those ghosts skillfully collaborated to disassemble materials, categorize them, and then hand them over to the specialist to be transported to the Hungry Ghost Trading Company in Almsgiving Town.
By the time the slower-reacting hungry ghosts came out, there was nothing left to see, not even bone fragments.
Now, with a large wave of demons charging forward, their gathered aura has condensed into a cloud, breaking through the aura of the hungry ghosts, heading straight for the Abyss Rift Valley.
The sound of horns echoed in the Abyss Rift Valley, and the idle hungry ghosts felt as if it were New Year's.
Initially, the hungry ghosts accepted eating some demons, but they quickly realized demon materials are profitable and can be exchanged for sweet rain; thus, they refused to eat demons, as all parts from skin to bones and components to blood are considered materials.
Yu Ziqing personally brings sweet rain to Almsgiving, can mere devil beings compare?
As a large number of demon cannon fodder attacked, the hungry ghosts immediately recalled their classic tug-of-war meat grinder tactics, all of them well-versed, no need for any big boss to come and command.
After all, the big bosses were all out.
The hungry ghosts at the front fought while retreating into the Abyss Rift Valley, waiting for the demons to rush in.
Someone immediately went to inform the other side to be prepared in case of emergency.
The Hungry Ghost Trading Company had already prepared an emergency plan; upon hearing this news, the subordinates of the deceitful ghost immediately disseminated several messages.
Some using Jade Scroll codes to directly communicate with Yu Ziqing.
Some sent to Jinlan Mountain, and others to transmit to Dali.
In a Health Club, the Gatekeeper Hungry Ghost who hadn't gone on business came out silently, the birthmark on her body quietly moving, becoming not ugly nor pretty, appearing in front of people.
With those in charge out, as the gatekeeper, she naturally stood out proudly.
She stepped towards the Hungry Ghost Trading Company, seeing the busy ghosts inside, she calmly spoke.
"Why panic, haven't you always wanted to earn merit, thinking accumulating it slowly is too slow?
Now that the deceitful ghost isn't here, Cece sis isn't here, Gege isn't here either.
You have the opportunity; if you fail to grasp it, you can't blame others anymore.
The adults have said many times before, in case of issues, follow the pre-established plans."
Upon these words, both the panicking hungry ghosts and the employed ones immediately stabilized a lot.
The deceitful ghost, a bootlicker, treated Yu Ziqing's words as imperial edicts, with all kinds of plans practiced and ready.
Especially this sort of demon assault, which is critically important, rehearsal done every few years.
Now following the rehearsal procedure, everything became much more orderly, chaotic yet unflustered, step by step, everyone familiar with their roles.
Seeing everything stabilize, the Gatekeeper Hungry Ghost flickered and changed into the extremely lavish attire Yu Ziqing gifted her, combed her hair, and stepped towards the large doors of the Abyss Rift Valley.
With the adults away, she's the protector of the Abyss Rift Valley.
At Jinlan Mountain, after receiving the message, the gatekeeping cook hungry ghost carried his black pot and headed straight to Almsgiving Town.
Er Han stayed at Jinlan Mountain, instructed the foolish dog to patrol and kept everyone else's emotions stable within the mountain.
"Rules are rules; without sufficient power, no going outside, besides, what's there to worry about, do you really think Jinlan Mountain relies on the number of hungry ghosts for intimidation?"
Years passed, and Er Han became much more composed, his foolish appearance now turned into steadiness.
He's truly fearless.
If there's any Great Devil in the East, ignoring Ruan Renwang, charging directly into Jinlan Mountain, they might as well await their doom.
...
On the other side of the Abyss, that piece of Black Scale's summoning guide, a large number of demons began assaulting the Abyssal Rift.
Black Scale transformed into a human form, watching the demons squeeze one by one into the Abyssal Rift, he smiled slightly.
With a flick of the finger, a stream of light entered the Abyssal Rift, immediately causing the demons previously pouring in to be pushed to the edge, shattering into blood mist, and under a guiding force, constantly expanding the size of the Abyssal Rift.
With the Abyssal Rift expanding, more demons rushed in, more dying, accelerating the expansion speed, forming a cycle.
Currently, the Abyssal Rift is too small, Great Devils can't pass through, and the number of demons entering simultaneously is limited, hence only able to expand like this.
Jiu Nian didn't expect the Great Devils to cross, he merely aimed to attract attention.
...
Elsewhere, Yu Ziqing felt the Jade Scroll shatter, received a brief message based on order.
A large number of demons are currently assaulting the Abyss Rift Valley, currently all demon cannon fodder, judging by scale, it's not small-scale roving demons, confirming that it must be under the control of Great Devils.
However, no Great Devils have been observed yet.
Having just received the news, he turned to face north, where suddenly, post demon aggregation, aura fluctuations emerged detectable even from afar.
Yu Ziqing glanced again at the Great Demon battling the village chief, and at the colossal thousand-foot banners in the distance, emitting extremely terrifying strength fluctuations.
