796: Both the eastern and western lines are experiencing simultaneous changes!

As expected!

This earth-shattering news instantly pulled Ji Yanshuang's attention away from the "interrogation"!

The anger and playfulness on her face vanished instantly, her flame-like eyes becoming incredibly sharp and solemn. "Hundreds of thousands?! This... this has already far exceeded the scale of a typical Beast Tide!"

Yao Delong nodded heavily, his voice low and solemn:

"Not only that!" He pointed his finger at the deepest part of the Great Desolate Forest on the sand table, an area near the border of the Demon Domain.

"There... I sensed an extremely terrifying aura! Cold, domineering, and carrying a will to destroy everything!"

"It's definitely a Peak Yao King! Even... it might have already stepped half a foot into the Yao Emperor realm!"

"A Peak Yao King?!" Ji Yanshuang sucked in a breath of cold air, her beautiful face instantly becoming incredibly solemn!

A Peak Yao King at the Void Refining Perfection level is terrifying enough to easily destroy a large city without a Body Integration Stage expert presiding over it!

Although Bhikkhu City has a Formation, the pressure has increased more than tenfold in the face of such a being!

However, the solemnity in Ji Yanshuang's eyes was quickly replaced by a surge of strong confidence!

She looked at Yao Delong with burning eyes, her lips curling back into a confident arc.

"What is there to fear!" She waved her hand heroically. "With our family's Martial Nephew Delong here! What kind of waves can a mere Peak Yao King stir up?"

"I heard from Senior Brother Li! You brat hold a trump card secret technique that even old monsters like Ye Wushang at the Half-step Integration Stage are wary of!" Ji Yanshuang's eyes were burning with intense trust and expectation. "Tell me! How much certainty do you have in dealing with this Peak Yao King?"

Yao Delong felt his Senior Martial Uncle's undisguised trust and expectation, and his heart warmed.

He pondered for a moment, his eyes flashing with brilliance and powerful confidence.

"Senior Martial Uncle, rest assured! If it's just a Peak Yao King, even if it's already a Half-step Yao Emperor..." Yao Delong's tone was resolute. "I am ten-tenths certain I can slay it under my sword!"

"Good!" Ji Yanshuang slapped the table hard, a dazzling light erupting from her beautiful eyes! "This is truly the Qilin child of our Yin Yang Sect!"

Yao Delong's tone shifted. "However... if there is a true Yao Emperor presiding behind the scenes... then that would be big trouble!"

"A Yao Emperor?" Hearing this, Ji Yanshuang's expression actually relaxed a bit. She waved her hand, her tone carrying a hint of certainty.

"You don't need to worry too much about that!"

"Beings at the Yao Emperor level have long transcended the mundane and will not easily intervene in secular wars," she analyzed. "Once they take action, the nature of the situation changes completely! It would mean the Demon Domain is officially declaring war on the entire Human Race of the Eastern Region!"

"A single move affects the whole body! For now, it seems those old monsters in the Demon Domain aren't ready for a full-scale war!"

Yao Delong nodded thoughtfully.

Ji Yanshuang's analysis made a lot of sense.

But his brow remained slightly furrowed.

"However... Senior Martial Uncle, the Yao Race's gathering of such a massive and unusual force this time likely has a far from simple objective!"

"Hundreds of thousands of Yao Beasts, and even deploying a Peak Yao King..." Yao Delong lightly tapped the edge of the sand table. "Just to break through a single Bhikkhu City? The cost... is simply too high!"

Mentioning this, the ease on Ji Yanshuang's face vanished. Her elegant brows knitted again, and a trace of deep worry flashed through her flame-like eyes!

"That is exactly what I am most worried about!" She said in a low voice, carrying an unprecedented solemnity!

"Before I left the Sect, the Sect Master said..." Ji Yanshuang cast her gaze toward the distant north. "Senior Brother Lei, Senior Brother Li, and the others were also urgently dispatched to the Northern Frontier!"

"I heard... the movements of the Demonic Cultivators there are far more frequent and rampant than on our side!"

"Northern Frontier... Demonic Cultivators..." Yao Delong's pupils constricted suddenly, and a flash of inspiration crossed his mind!

"Senior Martial Uncle means..." His voice carried a hint of chill. "The Yao Race making such a big fuss on the Eastern Region border this time is likely related to the abnormal activities of the Demonic Cultivators in the Northern Frontier..."

"...acting in coordination? Or even... it was a long-planned joint operation from the start?!"

"Exactly!" Ji Yanshuang nodded heavily, cold killing intent seemingly burning in her flame-like eyes!

"Simultaneous movements on both the east and west fronts! This is definitely no coincidence!" A faint talisman fire ignited at her fingertip, and she quickly sketched the outlines of the Eastern Region and the Northern Frontier on the sand table.

"The Yao Race is pinning down a large number of our Eastern Region's top forces at the border..."

"While the Demonic Cultivators of the Northern Frontier can take advantage of the opening..."

"Making a feint to the east while attacking the west!" Yao Delong said word by word, cold light erupting from his eyes!

A heavy pressure, like the calm before a storm, instantly enveloped the entire tent!

The cold light in Yao Delong's eyes slowly receded, replaced by an absolute confidence that was as steady as a mountain and looked down upon everything!

The heavy pressure seemed to melt away from him like ice and snow!

"Senior Martial Uncle, you don't need to be overly worried!" Yao Delong stood with his hands behind his back, his voice resonant and powerful, carrying a reassuringly strong aura.

"The Northern Frontier is presided over by the Seniors and experts of the Moyang Sect and Myriad Sword Valley, with other top Immortal Sects also keeping a watchful eye. No matter how rampant the Demonic Cultivators are, it won't be easy for them to punch through the Northern Frontier's defense line in one go!"

"As for what's before us..."

Yao Delong's gaze was like a torch, cast toward the glowing marker on the sand table representing Bhikkhu City, an invisible domineering aura emanating from him!

"As long as I am in Bhikkhu City!" He spoke resolutely, as if making a Heavenly Dao oath. "Unless a Yao Emperor comes in person! Otherwise, this Bhikkhu City..."

"...will certainly not fall!"

"The city's protective Formation has been strengthened through the generations and possesses extraordinary power! Coupled with my methods, it's enough to keep the Beast Tide at bay!"

"Even if a Yao Emperor takes action, we can still contend with them!" Yao Delong's eyes flickered with brilliance. "As long as we can hold out for a few days until the elite reinforcements from the Sect arrive..."

"By coordinating from inside and out, these hundreds of thousands of Yao Beasts will be nothing more than clay chickens and pottery dogs, easily destroyed with a flip of a hand!"

These steady, confident, and domineering words acted like a stabilizing pillar, instantly dispelling the gloom in Ji Yanshuang's heart!

"Good!" Ji Yanshuang's flame-like eyes once again burned with raging Battle Intent. "Hearing you say that, This old lady feels much more at ease!"

She slammed her hand onto the edge of the sand table, her jade finger pointing heavily at the location representing the Yao Beast gathering point deep within the Great Desolate Forest, her beautiful eyes flashing with determination and a spark of wild fire.

"Delong! When the next Beast Tide attacks, I will personally enter the fray!"

"I will take the initiative to attack, plunging into the core of the Beast Tide to kill as many High-level Yao Beast commanders as possible and force their coordination into chaos!" A dangerous yet charming arc curled at the corner of her mouth. "I don't believe that if I strike right at its doorstep, that turtle-like Peak Yao King will still be able to hold back!"

"As long as it dares to show its face..." Ji Yanshuang looked at Yao Delong with burning eyes. "The rest will be up to you!"

She paused, her voice carrying a hint of solemnity. "After days of bitter fighting, the city defenders and the supporting forces from various Sects are indeed exhausted, and casualties are not few. We cannot allow the Beast Tide to endlessly wear us down like this! We must take the initiative to break the situation!"

Yao Delong frowned slightly upon hearing this.

"Senior Martial Uncle's method is feasible! To catch the bandits, first catch their leader; to shoot the rider, first shoot the horse!" He nodded in agreement, but his tone immediately carried clear concern. "But this plan is too dangerous for you! Deep in the core of the Beast Tide, facing a Peak Yao King directly... a single slip could mean eternal damnation! I'm worried..."

"Worried about what?!" Before Yao Delong could finish, he was interrupted by Ji Yanshuang's fiery shout!

She stood with her hands on her hips, her proud chest puffing out, like a powder keg that had been lit!
