Chapter 458: The Counterattack Of The Dark World
Thanks to Zhu Wuji’s report, Lu Xuan was able to find out how many resources Ao Chen had gathered after so many years.
There were more than 10 million kinds of monsters under the Myriad Demon Valley’s command.
These monsters were mainly from the sea. Because the monsters on land had faced human encirclement and suppression in recent years, there weren’t many of them.
The deep sea was still a place that currently could not be reached by humans, it was completely overrun by monsters.
There were far more creatures in the sea than on land.
Several sea monsters changed under the influence of spirit qi all the time.
Among them were more than 300 demons. Except for some demons who were in the Myriad Demon Valley, the other demons were in various places, hiding within human society.
Many of them were famous business leaders in human society.
Among these demons, the most powerful ones were the so-called 10 great demon generals. Their cultivation level was essentially in the third tier of the Divine Treasure Realm.
The strongest demon among the 10 great demon generals was Zhu Wuji. Nobody would’ve expected his cultivation level to be at the fourth tier of the Divine Treasure Realm. With strength throughout his entire body, he stood out from many other demons.
The Myriad Demon Valley had not fallen apart after Ao Chen’s death thanks to the maintenance done by Zhu Wuji.
Zhu Wuji could never be as prestigious as Ao Chen, who could still deal with everything in an orderly manner even with his strength sealed.
However, Zhu Wuji could still live up to the status quo that Ao Chen’s legacy left behind!
Even then, all of these were now under the control of Lu Xuan.
In a manor somewhere in the United States…
A group of people sat opposite each other.
A man dressed in ancient western aristocratic clothing slammed the armrest of the chair next to him as he said, “Damn it! Lu Shanshan rejected our suggestion!”
Another man with white hair said, “They want to cut themselves off from the rest of the world!”
Someone else said, “Right now, nobody can change who or what any human federation comprised of. In this human federation, we are one level lower than the Huaxia region. Obviously, that’s a bad thing for us!”
If anyone was able to see the people in the secret room of this manor, they would immediately notice that almost everyone was quite famous in the United States. Some were even from the European Union.
This was the group of people who had secretly promoted everything against Yunxuan Villa and Lu Xuan.
Even if a human federation was to be formed now, there would’ve still been some conflict among its members.
There was also no doubt that the three major regions with the best economies were those of the European Union, Huaxia, and the United States.
Among them, there was no doubt that the United States region and the Huaxia region were contenders for having the strongest economy in the world.
In this respect, the United States had completely lagged behind. Only the top powers could set standards.
Currently, the Huaxia region had the most influence on both the level and the system of cultivation. Any advantages that the West had over the past hundreds of years no longer mattered.
While they did not give all of it up without putting up a fight, they still had to come up with decent ideas if they wanted to stand against the Huaxia region.
Compared to Huaxia’s system of cultivation, the western system of cultivation was inherently disorganized.
Once the Huaxia region was allowed to become the ruler of the earth in the future, there was no doubt that it would greatly impact everyone in the United States region.
Everyone also knew about this. The main reason why the Huaxia region had been able to become a lot stronger than the other regions lied in Yunxuan Villa.
Behind the terrifying strength of the Huaxia region was the existence of a looming force: the Yunxuan Villa.
Even if there was no Yunxuan Villa, the heritage of the Huaxia region was so profound that it could rank as one of the top regions in the human federation.
Now, things were completely different; the west was getting completely beaten.
Even if the European Union region and the United States region joined hands in their cultivation, it would have never been enough to compete with the Huaxia region.
This was also the main reason why they had let people go to Yunxuan Villa in the past. They wanted to force out any information about what Lu Xuan had left behind. They had to at least get something if they wanted to close the distance between the two sides.
At the very least, they couldn’t afford to let the gap between them become wider.
They had to find ways to slow down the development of the Huaxia region.
Many people were somewhat annoyed. Lu Xuan was already dead, yet he had still left them dealing with so much trouble.
At that time, an old man with a pale face slowly said, “Initially, I thought it would be best if we could win over Yunxuan Villa. Since that’s no longer possible, let’s uproot the place completely! There is a saying in Huaxia that those who have talents and ideals will suffer. If Lu Xuan was here, there would be no need to say anything more about how they were superior to us. Even though Lu Xuan is no longer here, they still want to keep the wealth that he had left behind. This is a self-inflicted disaster!”
Many people looked at the old man one after another.
One person who had their doubts replied, “However, Yunxuan Villa is not an easy place to get into. There are all kinds of high-tech precautions in the villa, as well as a lot of defensive measures on the cultivation side!”
Immediately afterward, somebody else argued, “Besides, we also have to worry about how the Huaxia region will react. If we are unable to destroy Yunxuan Villa when the time comes, I fear that we would never stand a chance against the Huaxia region!”
Deep down, nobody would dare to disagree with the idea of destroying Yunxuan Villa through sheer force. In reality, Yunxuan Villa was still terrifyingly strong that not even brute force could tear it down.
Of course, it was not as powerful as the Heavenly Palace, which had spread all over the world and worked alongside the Special Task Force.
However, the Heavenly Palace had countless top experts. According to the information they had continued to receive, at least 30 of them were above the Divine Treasure Realm.
An expert of this scale was by no means an existence to be underestimated.
Furthermore, if they let their guard down and suffered, no one could afford to suffer the wrath of the Huaxia region.
The strength of the Huaxia region’s human federation was second to none as they gradually became tougher. When Lu Xuan was in the Huaxia region treating others with kindness, many people received favors from him.
Lu Xuan directly influenced the growth of the Huaxia region.
The use of force to destroy Yunxuan Villa would probably anger the Huaxia region in an instant. When that happened, it would be hard for them to escape their wrath.
Even if they were deep in the American region, they may not be able to sleep at all if the leadership of the Huaxia region wanted to kill them. They would have to constantly be on alert, protecting themselves so they could avoid be killed at any time.
Nobody could afford to face the vengeful wrath of those experts who had received Lu Xuan’s favor alone.
