Yin Shen Palace said: "But you must keep an eye out for yourself, try not to appear if possible, or if you do appear to receive them, immediately disappear for a period of time. This way, whether they leave or stay, your safety is not a concern."

A disciple of Yin Shen Palace: "Even if the sub branch is truly implicated and destroyed by them, it’s not our problem. As long as you are still around, we have not lost."

"Understood, Master."

Fang Che replied: "But this sub branch has paid too much, and it’s too well hidden, I really don’t want to get involved in their mess."

"But you are ultimately still a sub branch of the Wei Wo Zheng Sect, the sect’s sub branch, it’s not yours or mine, understand?"

Yin Shen Palace said: "So, everything must be flexible, understand?"

"Understood!"

"So now you just hold your position and wait for them to come to you; if they never come to you, there’s even less reason for you to worry."

"Yes. That’s best! The ideal result is that they simply don’t come, and then leave as soon as they’re done. My small sub branch cannot afford to entertain such big shots who act this way."

Fang Che’s reply was filled with resentment.

Communication ended.

Yin Shen Palace then began to reply to Yan Nan.

Stating that he had already arranged the work.

Then simply copied the conversation with Yemo, and sent it to Vice Sect Master Yan, to let Vice Sect Master Yan know what’s going on.

To avoid any future troubles where a big stick comes down, he’d be guilty of not reporting.

After receiving the message, Yan Nan was extremely frustrated.

Seeing Yemo’s message, full of complaints, he mentioned Dream Demon’s shifty maneuvers piece by piece, Yan Nan was almost angry enough to have a stroke.

Despite being an over ten thousand years old famous Old Demon, how did you come up with such flawed operations!

And those Nightmare Guards are fools too, do you still think it’s three thousand years ago?

The next morning, he immediately sent a message to the General Affairs Platform.

"Did the eight Nightmare Guards of Dream Demon undertake any missions while he was unconscious?"

"No. They refused to accept any assignments."

"Hmm?"

"And basically only one stays to watch every day, the other seven are searching across the continent for spiritual medicine; normally we have no idea where they are."

"So you’re just going to watch?"

"After all, they are Lord Dream Demon’s... Nightmare Guards, belonging exclusively..."

The General Affairs Altar Master felt wronged.

I would like to command them, but could I command them?

"..."

Yan Nan was speechless.

Suddenly realizing, he was a bit too lenient with these demons’ personal guards.

"When you return, conduct a thorough reorganization, all Great Demon’s personal guards must unify and take orders; not having ventured out for so many years, do they not know how to roam Jianghu anymore!"

Yan Nan was furious.

"Vice Sect Master, this... the personal guards of all the lords have never been dispatched by the sect, they are personal military forces... many lords’ guards belong to concubines, or brothers... it’s very difficult to mobilize."

The General Affairs Altar Master explained quietly: "If you want to incorporate them into the sect, it might cause trouble."

Yan Nan angrily said: "Who said to incorporate them into the sect? When did the sect start taking in others’ concubines as well? The key is to let this group continuously undergo trials, just hiding in a cave for three thousand years without moving, wouldn’t it be better if they ventured out to explore Jianghu? Haven’t they forgotten everything after three thousand years! Old Demon, what face do you have to call yourself Old Demon, aren’t you just regressing as you get older? Not even as good as a young brat!"

"Ahem..."

The General Affairs Altar Master wiped his sweat.

Didn’t dare to respond to this.

"Dream Demon hasn’t replied to my message, seems like his avatar was destroyed, another accident occurred."

Yan Nan grew more furious the more he thought: "Contact the Southeast Headquarters, have them reach out to Kou Yifang of the Heavenly God Sect, then let Kou Yifang convey my message. Ask them about the remaining six Nightmare Guards, having not ventured out in Jianghu for three thousand years, do they still remember what Jianghu looks like? If they don’t even recognize Jianghu anymore, they might as well just retire there and enjoy their twilight years!"

"Yes."

The General Affairs Altar Master was shocked.

Even two Nightmare Guards gone?

How dangerous this must have been?

He hurriedly left after bowing to carry out the orders.

The Southeast Headquarters’ Wu Xiang was immediately anxious. He knew the Heavenly God Sect wanted to achieve something, some time ago Kou Yifang had mysteriously reported that they were taking on a major task.

Hoped to report after completing the task.

Wu Xiang agreed to this.

However, upon receiving the message from the Main Sect this time, he realized that the major task Kou Yifang took on actually led the entire high command of the Heavenly God Sect and Lord Dream Demon to fall into Baiyun State!

That’s really a big task!

Quickly, he sent a message to Kou Yifang in haste: "What exactly is going on? What happened, the Main Sect is waiting for the report."

...

Over at Wei Wo Zheng Sect, operations began and actions commenced.

But for the Guardians, throughout the entire Southeast, another sweep began.

The target was clear: Yixin Sect, San Sheng Sect, Mingguang Sect, Heavenly God Sect.

Attacking all four sects simultaneously!

The expert Guardians returned from guarding the Southeast borders to join the siege.

"This time the target of the siege is the four sects. The focus is on capturing Dream Demon. Eliminate all Nightmare Guards. At the same time, sweep the Yixin Sect and find Yemo!"

Throughout the Southeast seventeen states, over mountains and rivers, actions commenced simultaneously.

The Yixin Sect Headquarters had just relocated, making it difficult to find; and having just experienced the Vice Sect Hierarch’s rebellion, all halls were returned to the Headquarters, so for now, there was nothing happening.
