The excited roar of the demon clan came from behind. It was the catharsis after surviving, but it sounded like a great irony to the disciples of the Taoist throne. They were retreating, but their ears could not hear it.

No one asked the Taoist priest Xingluo who was traveling with him. The incident happened too suddenly, and more than a dozen Taoist priests of Xingluo were also confused.

Note: The Taoist priests of the Gods will definitely not ask for withdrawal for no reason. This time they just stood too high and looked too far, and even the Taoist priests who were only one level lower than them could not keep up.

The three teams of the Taoist dynasty gathered dozens of miles away and received further orders here: continue to retreat until they completely withdraw from the place of demons. In other words, this fantastic campaign to kill demons and eliminate demons has ended. As for the reasons, the Taoists got the explanation that they should not think randomly. After returning to their respective Taoist dynasties, they will get the explanation from the master.

This will happen in more than twenty days, and the person with the strongest heart of Tao also felt a little impatient.

Chen Hao is one of the most impatient people, because he cares about the fate of Mu Xingqiu and others, and wants to know whether his good friends have become demons. Because he is the leader of the Demon Slaying Society, many people dare not speak to the higher Taoist priests, but they ask him endlessly.

"You said on the battlefield that Mu Xingqiu had not transformed into a demon, did the Taoist priests hear it?"

"Did Taoist Priest Xingluo reveal any whine to you?"

"Is it true that the demon-slaying will come to an end? Why do we have to obey the orders of the higher Taoist priests to exit the land of the demons?"

...

Chen Hao couldn't answer any of them. He endured for three days, for three days. Then he went to see Shen Jixian, the head of the Five Elements Department. "I want to meet the Shen Taoist Priest, I must get an explanation immediately, otherwise I will order the demon-slaying will stop retreating."

This was the first rest in several days when the troops were withdrawn. The Taoist throne camped in a demon village that had just been destroyed and eradicated the remaining monsters here.

Shen Jixian stood alone outside the village, and seemed to have expected Chen Hao to come to find him. His expression was harsh than ever. "The Demon-Slaying Society nominally withdrew from the Taoist throne, but how many people do you think will violate the orders of higher Taoists because of your words?"

Chen Hao suddenly remembered Mu Xingqiu's reminder. He said that the biggest problem of the demon-slaying will be difficult to obtain real ones. Chen Hao believed in this judgment, but he didn't expect that the intervention would come so quickly and thoroughly.

"There are not many people." Chen Hao admitted that his influence on the members of the Demon-Slaying Society was not as good as the Taoist throne. "But even if I am the only one, I will stop moving forward. Lower Taoist priests will follow you, but their doubts will be stronger."

This was simply a public threat. Shin Jixian was not angry, but smiled, "It seems you are serious, okay, I will pass your request to the Shintoku, maybe you will get an explanation before me."

"Thank you." Chen Hao was a little embarrassed. As the leader, Shen Jixian was also hidden in the dark, but Chen Hao had no choice. He could not contact the Grandmaster or other Shintoshi Taoist priests at all, and could only pass the message through Shen Jixian.

Note: The Shintoshi attached more importance to this "threat" than Chen Hao expected. He was summoned at around 3 o'clock that night. To be precise, this was a dream.

Taoist priests rarely dream. Chen Hao was sitting quietly in his tent and fell asleep unknowingly. At this time, a strange Taoist priest came in and waved to him. Chen Hao stood up and followed him. He knew that this was a dream. He also knew that the dream was controlled by others, but he was not frightened at all, and he felt very at ease.

The outside of the tent is not much different from the real scene. The demon tribe's cave has been sealed, and a large number of useless objects are piled up in the middle of the camp, wrapped in the fire of the five elements, burning wantonly.

A Taoist priest stood near the campfire. Chen Hao looked at him and recognized him as the Grandmaster of Pangshan, Yang Yannian.

The Taoist priest who summoned Chen Hao to come out of the tent disappeared.

Chen Hao hurried over and felt a little panic even in his dream. After all, not every Taoist priest can receive a separate summon from the master, not to mention that he had said some disrespectful words in front of the head seat.

Chen Hao was about to salute, but Yang Yannian raised his hand to stop it, and then pointed to the bonfire not far ahead, "The fire of the five elements can eliminate monsters and eliminate unclean energy, but for more than 100,000 years, unclean energy still occupies most of the world."

"But Taoism and humanity have the best part of the world. Even on the frontier, there are fertile land and good weather seasons. Unlike the land of demons, there are often no living creatures within hundreds of miles."

Yang Yannian smiled, "But the demon clan is here to survive, and it grows stronger every once in a while, causing great trouble to the Taoist throne." The master put away his smile and said seriously: "When the ancestor peak was captured by the demon clan, you were there at the scene and tell me how Pangshan disciples did it?"

Chen Hao was a little stunned. Unexpectedly, the Grandmaster would ask about the old things a few years ago, and thought for a moment, "Most of the disciples fought bravely to kill demons, survived and died with the Old Ancestor Peak, and never bowed to the demon clan. A few disciples, including me, followed the first part of the Forbidden Secret Department to leave the Old Ancestor Peak and take refuge in Duanliu City."

"Martyrdom and evacuation, which option do you think is wiser?"

"There is no so-called wise choice. If everyone is martyred at the Ancestor Peak, the Ancestor Tower will fall into the hands of the demon clan, causing a great disaster; if everyone evacuates the Ancestor Peak, Pangshan will be ridiculed by the people of the world, and the disciples will feel humiliated, and it will lose their meaning to keep the Ancestor Tower."

Yang Yannian nodded, obviously very satisfied with Chen Hao's answer, "The practitioners have physical and spiritual aspects, and the same is true for Taoism. The Patriarch Tower is the shape of Pangshan, and the disciples' inheritance and belief are the gods of Pangshan. When the Ancestor Peak fell, some people preserve their bodies and some people preserve their spirits. These are all the correct ways to do it."

Chen Hao began to understand the grandmaster's meaning, "Will the withdrawal of troops to protect the body or spirit this time?"

"god."

Chen Hao was stunned again, because in his opinion, what was destructive this time was exactly the pride and belief of the Taoist disciples.

"Zuo Liuying is an amazing Taoist priest." Yang Yan sighed young, "but his ideas are often too unique."

"I have seen that, for example, there are so many disciples guarding the Old Ancestor Peak, he only took away a group of inhaled Taoist priests. For example, he went to Luanjing Mountain to rescue his former master, but almost opened up a void passage to put the demons in."

"Well, that's true, but those practices are still within the scope of permission and acceptance of the Taoist throne. But since I confirmed that I encountered the sigh disaster, Zuo Liuying's thoughts began to be out of line."

The sighing catastrophe is a Taoist catastrophe that all Taoists will experience sooner or later. The Taoist Dharma is boundless and the human power is limited. After endless years of climbing, the Taoist priest with the strongest will be tired, and the tiredness will eventually erupt over time, making the Taoist priest unable to improve his realm. He can continue to think and work hard, but he just cannot move forward.

No Taoist priest has ever survived the sigh disaster, so Zuo Liuying insisted on giving it a try.

"Zuo Liuying wants to use Mu Xingqiu and the group of demon-invading Taoist priests to overcome the disaster?" Chen Hao was shocked.

"It's even more unique than this. What you will know in the future is that Zuo Liuying convinced us." Yang Yannian did not continue to say anything, but stared at the bonfire, as if there were important secrets hidden inside.

Chen Hao waited for a while and felt that the conversation was not over, so he asked in a low voice: "Did Zuo Liuying convince the monk Zhushen to not kill Mu Xingqiu and the others?"

"If you experience the crisis of Laozu Peak again, will you choose to evacuate or die in martyrdom?" Yang Yannian suddenly changed the topic.

Chen Hao's thoughts were a little confused. He had never thought about this problem. "I'd choose to evacuate."

"Why?"

"Because it was a sneak attack, the demon clan occupied the right time and place, and only after evacuation could he re-elect a battlefield that was beneficial to the Taoist dynasty. Moreover—" Chen Hao knew that there was no need to conceal his true views in front of the master, nor could he conceal him. "I can understand the importance and necessity of evacuation, and I will not fall into regret, I can fight back."

Yang Yannian nodded again, "The arrival of the demon clan is likely to be earlier than any previous predictions. For the entire Taoist sect, this is a crisis in the Ancestor Peak."

Chen Hao shook his head, unable to believe his ears, "The Grandmaster means... some Taoist priests are going to evacuate before the arrival of the demons? Who evacuates? Where to evacuate?"

"It's not part, it's all Taoist priests. We have our own arrangements for where to go."

Chen Hao began to feel that this was really just a dream, "But the demons... and the humans in the whole world..."

"Didn't you ever have a similar idea when you were at the Old Ancestor Peak? Instead of letting the Daotong wait for the demons nervously, why not leave this uneasy to the demons? Humans will always be revived. Thirteen thousand years ago, humans were just an inconspicuous race, but now they occupy the best part of the world's land, a hundred times, a thousand times the number of demons. In another 130,000 years, humans will only be more prosperous than today, because when the Daotong returns to the world, they will no longer let the demons hide in the void. This is not my own expectation, but a reality that is forming."

Chen Hao's mind became even more confused, and he couldn't tell whether it was a grandmaster's dream or an illusion. He thought he needed some time to understand the grandmaster's plan, so he turned to ask about something else, "But what does this have to do with this withdrawal?"

"Zuo Liuying reminds us that if someone evacuates this world, someone will have to martyrdom for this world. He is willing to be a martyr, and he also guarantees that Mu Xingqiu and others will follow him. He has other reasons, but this is the most important one."

Chen Hao felt as if he had been punched hard, dizzy, and everything in front of him was shaking upside down, "Why... why is the Grandmaster willing to tell me the truth?"

"Just you said, you can understand the importance and necessity of evacuation. We need you to convince the lower Taoist priests. This is very important to the entire evacuation plan. It is not to persuade now, but to the future."

Yang Yannian raised his right hand and pressed it on Shen Hao's shoulder. In his dream, he looked twice as tall as an adult standing in front of a four or five-year-old child, "You will have a bright future."

Chen Hao did not break free from the master's palm. He had a premonition that the dream was about to end. Because the master's appearance began to be distorted, he hurriedly asked the last question, "Has Xiaoqiu really become a demon?"

Did the Grandmaster answer? How did he answer? Chen Hao had no impression at all. He woke up and was covered in cold sweat.
