Inside the palace.
The three elders looked at each other, puzzled, after hearing Xia Tianqiong's suggestion.
"Young friend Xia, are you really going to hunt down those two cunning generals from the Leng family?" Elder Yinshan asked somewhat uncertainly.
They had just discussed their plan that morning, and before they even started implementing it, their target came knocking on their door wanting to do it.
Is it really a case of judging a gentleman by the standards of a petty person?
Xia Tianqiong stood in the center of the hall, a hint of guilt in his voice, "To be honest, it was because of me that they were attracted here, causing the Tree Demon Clan to suffer an undeserved disaster."
I must stop them, otherwise I won't feel at ease. But I also know that my strength is insufficient to deal with them. So let's work together and try to kill them.
The elder of the Monkey Clan frowned in thought, feeling that this was yet another new conspiracy.
The elder of the Silver Fir clan's eyes lit up. "We can cooperate with you. What do you plan to do? They cause destruction everywhere and their whereabouts are unpredictable, making it difficult to stop them."
In truth, he wanted Xia Tianqiong to use herself as bait, but he couldn't say it outright.
Xia Tianqiong had a plan in mind. Standing there confidently, he said, "You can send your clansmen to spread the word in the outer areas that you will not hand me over to them and that you are not willing to get involved in the conflict between me and them."
Instead, they decided to expel me from the Tree Demon Clan's territory, scheduled for tomorrow morning at the place where we last encountered each other.
Whether they believe it or not, they will go and take a look around that area.
You must not show up then, otherwise if they see you, they will guess that we have joined forces and will definitely not dare to attack me.
"You must wait until my cunning generals engage them in battle, until the very crucial moment, before you suddenly appear. If it's sudden enough, you'll prevent them from escaping into the void."
Upon hearing this, the Monkey Clan Elder realized that it was similar to his plan, both using Xia Tianqiong as bait.
However, this plan has a flaw and is not as perfect as his.
He looked at Xia Tianqiong with disdain and questioned, "The Ghost General's perception range is extremely wide. By the time you start fighting with them and we rush over from behind, we will be detected before we even get close. How can you appear suddenly?"
If we lay an ambush beforehand, that's even more impossible; they can sense it too. So your plan is utter nonsense and completely won't work.
Xia Tianqiong turned his gaze to the Monkey Clan Elder, not annoyed at all, but instead said in a light tone, "The method is very simple, I thought you could think of it!"
"What's the solution? Tell me quickly, don't beat around the bush," the Monkey Clan elder said impatiently.
"It's like making a pact with me, hiding inside my body. Not only will they not be able to detect it, but they can also appear at any time, catching me off guard."
"Another contract? You're trying to fool us again!"
Tell me which of my words I lied to, I want to hear it.
"you……"
The elder of the Monkey Clan was speechless for a moment, and after thinking for a long time, he couldn't seem to find a single word to say.
The Silver Fir Clan elder suddenly praised, "This method is indeed unexpected. We couldn't have thought of it, and neither could the Cold Family's cunning general. I think it's feasible, but we need to sign an equal contract, and it must be temporary."
Xia Tianqiong said with a half-smile, "It's not just a temporary equal contract; we also need to think of all sorts of constraints and add them to the contract, so that no elder will think I'm cheating you."
After saying this, he added, "Elder Monkey King is still seriously injured and has little fighting power left, so he shouldn't be involved in this matter!"
Elder Yinshan nodded in agreement, “Elder Houkui is indeed not suitable to participate in the war, so he should stay at home and guard the city.”
The old man from the Monkey Clan glared angrily at Xia Tianqiong, "I'm fine. I may not be able to kill the Ghost General, but killing a few of the Leng Family's Fierce Ghosts is no problem."
After discussing some details, Xia Tianqiong left the main hall.
...
The next morning, everything proceeded as planned.
On the edge of the primeval jungle, one can fly through the air in summer.
Weaving through the dense tree trunks, followed closely by an elderly woman in a funeral dress and a boy wearing glasses.
It flew to a certain place and suddenly stopped in mid-air.
Xia Tianqiong looked ahead and shouted, "Come out! I know you're hiding nearby."
As soon as the words were spoken, the space in front of them rippled slightly, and then two figures emerged.
It was Old Man Wang and the ghost who was burned to death.
Then, more than a dozen strange creatures emerged from the void behind the two of them. These were the Leng family creatures that had escaped earlier, and Leng Manjin was among them.
The Burning Ghost looked at him with disdain and sneered in a fake manner, "The Tree Ghost Clan is indeed cowardly; they actually managed to kick you out."
His words had an element of performance, but they also reflected his true feelings.
In the eyes of the Void Creatures, the Tree Creatures are pushovers they can bully at any time.
Old Wang didn't seem to be very good at acting; his face always had a calm expression. "Enough with the nonsense, let's get started!"
Without any unnecessary words, and fearing that saying too much would expose our secrets, the battle began immediately.
Xia Tianqiong raised his hand and waved it, releasing more than forty more strange creatures to join the battle.
The cunning generals faced off against each other, the fierce cunning generals against each other, and the rest engaged in a chaotic free-for-all.
To make the performance more realistic, the fight between the two sides was extremely realistic, even brutal.
As if they had a blood feud with someone who killed their father, they came at him with their lives on the line, completely unafraid of getting hurt.
The reason why the demons were so enthusiastic was because Xia Tianqiong promised them that they would be rewarded with Nether Gold according to the severity of their injuries after the mission was accomplished.
The more you are hurt, the more you give.
Therefore, even though the demons knew it was an act, they all fought desperately, completely abandoning dodging and defense.
Anyway, as long as you don't die, you can recover quickly with the Netherworld Gold.
At this moment, the three elders of the Tree Ghost Clan are all inside Xia Tianqiong's body, communicating with each other through their thoughts.
