Will the God and Demon finally release my mother?

Lu Ran was overjoyed and quickly asked, "What is her mission upon returning to the Heavenly Realm?"

The Cloud Sea Sword Spirit communicated with its master for a moment, then replied immediately, "She is tasked with finding and eliminating the human groups hunting God and Demon, infiltrating our forces, investigating our identities, and acting as a mole."

Lu Ran: "..."

The damage inflicted by the God and Demon camp on Qiao Wanjun is not something that can be explained in a few words. Now that they are in trouble, they want her to be a traitor to humanity?

What makes the God and Demon think that Qiao Wanjun would obediently follow orders?

Are they using her children as leverage?

Qiao Yuansi had long escaped the control of Lady Flower Lantern, and besides, Flower Lantern was completely dead, so the God and Demon couldn't trouble Little Yuansi.

But Lu Ran still remains a disciple of the Immortal Goat Sect!

No one knows whether this disciple of Immortal Sheep is alive or dead in the mouth of Lord Immortal Sheep...

Aside from the aspect of children, the God and Demons might also use the homeland of the Human Clan and the lives of billions as threats.

Back then, when Lu Ran and others killed the Divine·Prisoner Demon, the other side threatened that if the Ran Sect continued their actions, he would execute all the Prisoner Demon believers across the Three Realms.

This group of evil dogs...

"She also said that we cannot meet for the time being," the Cloud Sea Sword Spirit suddenly said.

"Why?"

"She believes there is likely a stalker behind her, presumably some kind of God and Demon with invisibility skills, watching her all the way."

Lu Ran gripped the hilt of the Cloud Sea Sword tightly.

So that's the plan of the God and Demon.

It makes sense because why would the God and Demon trust Qiao Wanjun?

Qiao Wanjun, being a part of the Human Clan, naturally holds a significant advantage, which might enable her to lower the guard of the mysterious human forces and help her complete her mission.

She also possesses an incredibly glorious personal record!

The Cloud Sea Sect's Sect Master is renowned across the Heavenly Realm, being a brilliant star standing at the pinnacle of the Human Clan.

She is highly likely a legendary figure admired by the human forces, even actively attracting contacts from the mysterious human forces...

No matter the outcome, as long as the human forces are willing to show themselves, everything will be manageable!

Lu Ran thought secretly and negotiated with Lady Yan Zhi on the spot.

However, Lady Yan Zhi, though a front-line guardian God and Demon with extraordinary power, was not part of the core leadership and was unaware of related information.

"Why worry?" Lady Yan Zhi suddenly lifted her hand to her ear, gently pinching the tiny human with her long fingers.

"What?" Lu Ran flickered to escape from between her fingers, standing on her fingertip.

Lady Yan Zhi didn't mind his rebellious action and whispered, "There aren't many God and Demons with invisibility skills, and Greedy Wolf has already been hunted by you.

The remaining ones are only the Nine Nether Bird, Caster, Ghost Moon Fox, and Witch Crow."

Lu Ran's eyes brightened: "Makes sense."

Third-class Evil Demon·Nine Nether Bird!

This is one side of the same coin with Third-class Divine·Huang Que, with considerable strength but still within the Ran Sect's capability to strike.

Fifth-class God Demon·Caster-Ghost Moon Fox!

This one is a bit tricky; although they are both fifth-class, they have the ability to predict danger.

Seventh-class Divine·Witch Crow is a bit easier, being relatively weaker.

Lady Yan Zhi whispered, "The God and Demon true form is too large, incongruent with silent, secret tracking."

Lu Ran nodded repeatedly: "So those stealthily monitoring her must be either human believers, God and Demon minions, or the physical body of God and Demon residue."

Lady Yan Zhi wore a faint smile: "Whatever it is, it isn't the God Demon true form."

Lu Ran followed her train of thought: "Thus, I want to clear out the tail, directly go to the respective Divine Mountain, and kill the God and Demon."

But Lady Yan Zhi said, "Is it really like that?"

"Huh?"

"Since the target is so easy to lock onto, have you considered this being a trap specifically set by God and Demon for you?"

Lu Ran abruptly looked up at her noble and beautiful face.

There was a charming smile on her face, and because the face of the Evil God true form was stony, not pale like paper, it made her appearance even better.

Lu Ran silently nodded.

It seems like not only do the God and Demons distrust Qiao Wanjun?

They very well might assume Qiao Wanjun has connections with the mysterious human forces, deliberately exposing flaws, using Nine Nether Bird and other Evil Demons as bait, laying an inescapable net in the respective Divine Mountain area.

Waiting for the mysterious human forces to take the bait?

However, all this is based on current speculation, the truth is yet to be verified further.

"Figured it out?" Lady Yan Zhi slightly moved her thumb towards her index finger.

This time Lu Ran did not dodge, following her wish, letting her gently pinch him: "Thank you... um, thank you for the reminder."

"To achieve something great, you need to remain calm," Lady Yan Zhi gently closed her eyes as if trying to feel the tiny human more clearly between her fingers.

"Mm... ugh."

"What harm is there in letting the tail exist?" Lady Yan Zhi said blandly, "The Nine Nether Bird is in the west, Witch Crow in the northwest, the Caster-Ghost Moon Fox located on the Bee Elephant Divine Mountain in the southwest."

Lu Ran directly flickered out, eyes brightening: "If the God and Demon really set an inescapable net, the heavy troops must be arranged in the west!

We can take advantage of the situation to eliminate the God and Demon in the east."

Lady Yan Zhi smiled but said no more.

Lu Ran gazed up at the female Evil God, suddenly realizing he had enlisted not just a powerful Divine Mountain leader!

Recruiting yet another strategist-type Evil God?

Thinking of this, Lu Ran spoke, "So what do you think the next step for the Ran Sect should be?"

Lady Yan Zhi instead said, "Tell me about your Ran Sect."

"Alright! Open your palm, someone's bringing me something." As soon as Lu Ran finished speaking, Lady Yan Zhi slightly turned her eyes.

Clearly, there was nothing beside her, but she sensed a terrifying energy fluctuation.

It seemed like a God and Demon stone sculpture of equivalent level appeared by her side.

Lady Yan Zhi remained calm, maintaining her usual demeanor.

She easily inferred that the cloaked God and Demon by her side should be the one who snatched the Greedy Wolf - Evil Dog Divine Position earlier.

Soon, a small Treasure Gourd appeared.

However, before it could fall into Lady Yan Zhi's palm, it disappeared again.

Lu Ran picked up the Fiery Phoenix Patterned Gourd and released Yu Changsheng's heavenly realm body.

As for Yu Changsheng's original stone sculpture, it was still cloaked at Lady Nu Ying's Divine Mountain.

"Mr. Cong Long, Lady Yan Zhi has agreed to join our Ran Sect with Red Candle, Celebration Tu, and Mud Mountain Pig..." Lu Ran recounted briefly.

"Lady Yan Zhi, it's an honor." Yu Changsheng briefly revealed his form and greeted.

Lady Yan Zhi glanced at the small Human Clan, showing no emotion.

Yu Changsheng did not mind, and immediately said, "Sect Leader, regarding the situation you mentioned, we can first send someone to investigate.

But in any case, the Ran Sect has already become a thorn in the side of Gods and Demons, now that Lady Yan Zhi and Lady Nu Ying are willing to advance and retreat with our Ran Sect, it's time we transform."

"What do you mean?"

"Rather than letting the Gods and Demons blatantly target us..." Yu Changsheng mused, "why don't we disrupt the structure of the Heavenly Realm Battlefield and completely muddy the waters!"

Lady Yan Zhi slightly raised an eyebrow.

Yu Changsheng continued, "Regardless of whether the Gods and Demons heavily guard the west, we can make a move on the eastern front by letting the Faceless Jade Venerable Clan in directly.

Turning the Third Heaven into the likes of the First and Second Heaven, the more chaotic the battlefield, the more advantageous it is for us!

What do you think, Lady Yan Zhi?"

Lady Yan Zhi looked at the fierce battle line below: "You want me to withdraw my forces and let in the Jade Venerable Clan?"

"No." Yu Changsheng immediately refused, "Lady Yan Zhi can retract defenses and safeguard the Divine Mountain! Our Ran Sect has the strength to slay generals on the eastern line."

Lady Yan Zhi spoke softly: "Lu Jun once said, even Lady Nu Ying joined the Ran Sect, you have few targets to choose from."

Lu Jun?

Lu Ran blinked, that title... feels odd.

Hmm, talk to her later, and just have her call me by my name.

Lu Ran set aside miscellaneous thoughts, contemplating the leaders from north to south in the Third Heaven.

Tracing an arc along the eastern line, they are North Wind - Night Charm, Mountain Lord - Yinli Tiger, Dong Ting - Purple Thunder Demon Peng, Lady Yan Zhi, Lady Nu Ying, and Ash.

What does it mean to have an all-star lineup?

Looking around, is there anyone easy to deal with?

Not to mention those in the second line, like Sword One, Martial Artist, and Yin Flower Dan, ready to support the front line at any time.

"Rest assured, Lady Yan Zhi, not long ago, the Ran Sect just obliterated Sacred Wood Divine Mountain." Yu Changsheng spoke solemnly, "The Mountain Guardian General Mountain Lord - Yinli Tiger's beast nature remains, once we lured it away, its weakness is clear."

Lu Ran asked, "Does Mr. intend to repeat the trick?"

Yu Changsheng pondered: "The Gods and Demons have unimaginably long lifespans. Their minds, nature, everything has long been fixed, not learning from mistakes."

In other words, if the Gods and Demons had room for improvement, they would have grown over the eons.

"Mr. Cong Long wants to lure the tiger entrenched in the northeast either north or south?" Lu Ran's heart slightly moved.

This decides whether Ran Sect's next target is North Wind or Dong Ting.

Although the Ran Sect is strong, confronting two groups of second-class Gods and Demons at the same time is overreaching.

Especially a fierce beast like Mountain Lord - Yinli Tiger, capable of transforming into a colossal entity spanning three kilometers!

It's not that in an all-out setup battle, Ran Sect will surely lose. But in this crucial life-and-death battle, victory must be sought with the least cost, and relatively safe methods.

Currently, the Ran Sect hasn't been forced into a full-scale war.

"Sect Leader, Dong Ting - Purple Thunder Demon Peng is extremely fast and poses a great threat to us." Yu Changsheng suggested, "Why not take this opportunity to take down the toughest East Thunder Spear?"

"Hmm..." Lu Ran pondered silently.

Yu Changsheng certainly knew, Lu Ran bore more hatred toward North Wind!

But since Ran Sect wants to challenge second-class powerful gods, it must be when the Gods and Demons' camp hasn't reacted, to take down the most threatening one first.

If possible, Yu Changsheng would even want to take on Blood Skull directly.

But Blood Skull and Dong Ting are not comparable entities.

The Domain of Silence Sect Master initiates lasts only three or four seconds, one wrong move, and the Ran Sect could be utterly defeated!

Strength must still be accumulated, this is undeniable.

Extreme Speeders, regardless of the camp, are highly threatening.

Once Dong Ting falls, Huangfu Tianjiang can become a god, becoming the fastest entity of both enemies and allies!

Draining the waters to fish the moon!

"Sect Leader..."

"Alright, it's Dong Ting!" Lu Ran clenched his fists tightly.
