He took several deep breaths, suppressing the inner turmoil and anger.

Du Li performed a deep bow, "It's thanks to you, sir, for your tireless efforts. This time, unveiling the true face of the evil cultivators using the Demon Realm Alliance to sow discord indeed established a great merit for the alliance!"

Then, with a heavy heart, he said, "In the past, there have always been cultivators falling to evil practices, despite repeated prohibitions.

But aside from those inherently heinous villains, most become evil cultivators out of desperation, to extend their lifespan or seek revenge.

After all, it's universally known that an evil cultivator crossing the thunder tribulation is a matter of life and death, and even if they aren't turned into ashes, they'll be skinned alive, with death inevitable in the next thunder tribulation!

Therefore, becoming a fallen evil cultivator is no different from self-destruction.

If the Pleasure Sect truly could break this only shackle of the thunder tribulation, imagine how many inherently evil people would recklessly cultivate evil techniques!"

With the constraint of the thunder tribulation, no matter how malicious one's heart is, they would still have some concerns for the long term.

Possibly, through gradual cultivation, the inner evil thoughts might dissipate, allowing them to return to the right path.

But if even the thunder won't strike evil cultivators, regardless of whether they've lost their way or are seeking shortcuts, who knows how many cultivators, who should have stayed on the righteous path—or at the very least not engage in evil—would become disciples of the Pleasure Sect, committing countless misdeeds and bringing disaster to the world.

This position of authority is not given in vain!

Having just taken office and already uncovering such a huge case, it seems Mr. Jiang has something to him.

Thinking of this, Du Li pondered in his heart about his intentions for joining the Demon Realm Alliance and whether he could be trusted as an ally.

Achievement?!

Jiang Yuan thought to himself, "I've always found the harder I work, the quicker the company goes bust. Having been recognized for contributing to the alliance's work within just half a month of taking office, doesn't that mean..." 𝒇𝒓𝙚𝒆𝔀𝓮𝓫𝒏𝓸𝙫𝓮𝓵.𝓬𝙤𝙢

He glanced at the side mission; he needed to understand the collective ascension plan within twenty days, time was of the essence.

"Unfortunately, the captured Sun Haiyuan is not a member of the Pleasure Sect's management, making it impossible to learn more details."

He leisurely took a sip of tea, "Alliance Leader Du, regardless of what initially sparked the rumors of the Human Race's guilt, it is now known that the Pleasure Sect's evil cultivators use this as an excuse to fish in troubled waters, inciting and slaughtering both races, which is unforgivable. Surely, the Demon Realm Alliance must do something?"

"Naturally. Once I return, I'll immediately issue a notice; any further defamation claiming that Human Race cultivators caused the Wilderness to fall will be dealt with as evil cultivators!"

Seeing his straightforward agreement, Jiang Yuan seized the opportunity to suggest, "The disciples of the Ancient Ten Great Sects defend against evil cultivators to protect righteous cultivators; evil cultivators perpetrate evil everywhere under the name of the Demon Realm Alliance, widening misunderstandings between both sides.

Alliance Leader Du, why not take this opportunity to clarify the alliance's stance?

Other forms of support take too long to show immediate effects, but I noticed that the alliance's many arrays are indeed impressive. If we could provide some advanced arrays for sect protection, safeguarding weaker human cultivators from evil harm, it would not only ease relations between the two races, but also accumulate goodwill."

Indeed, he begins requesting benefits for Human Race cultivators now, though merely some protective arrays, which isn't too much, but it's clear he's more attached to his own kind.

This kind of assistance seems like it's to select outstanding individuals and form his own faction.

Du Li contemplated this, gazing at the Immortal Mountain Palace shrouded in dense spiritual energy and clouds, thinking to himself that cooperation should be the priority for now. If he truly intends for collective ascension, the alliance would preemptively strike!

"What you said is very reasonable, sir; however…" he said with a wry smile, "Advanced arrays need to be personally refined by array masters with high cultivation realms, they don't grow like weeds in the ground for one to easily grab a bunch.

Once I return, I'll gather manpower to compile a list, to allocate as many advanced arrays as possible, and would trouble you, sir, to navigate and reduce some misunderstandings between the two races."

Jiang Yuan nodded in agreement, also recalling Array Master Hao Daqiang, who hasn't been heard from till now.

This Vice Alliance Hierarch isn't easy to extort; using this opportunity to acquire more arrays that cannot be easily breached could maximize protection for the Human World. Additionally, by trying to hunt down and eliminate the Pleasure Sect's disciples, working on both ends, the Human Race would be much safer.

Noticing the long-untouched human support plan, he inquired, "Pleasure Sect disciples specifically target mortals; I'm worried many small worlds inhabited solely by mortals without spiritual energy might suffer.

The last time I accompanied Daoist Qu to a small world, we observed an execution..."

"Your concern is quite valid. However, the Demon Realm Alliance chooses Otherworldly locations like Duoze Star for executions; although spiritual energy was sparse there a thousand years ago, it still produced two exceptionally gifted demon cultivators.

Later, when spiritual energy completely vanished, those two demon cultivators traveled to the Wilderness World and joined the alliance, thinking to benefit their hometown, thus recommending it as the execution site.

In return, the alliance will strive to maintain the peace of Duoze Star. It has arrays set up, so if any evil cultivators disrupt the tranquility, the alliance will become aware."

Du Li spoke with a solemn expression, "Duoze Star is also under protection, but other worlds... I must hurry back and personally remind the sects with connections to the Otherworld to be on strict guard against the Pleasure Sect's incursions!"

Jiang Yuan silently jotted down Duoze Star, considering he needed to gather materials quickly to upgrade the Observatory.

Having been reprimanded and learning new information about the evil cultivators, Du Li hurriedly left; others also attended to their own duties, leaving the courtyard quiet.

No one disturbing him, he first clicked to show the wings to check the unexpected gains.

"Boom!"

A pair of large wings appeared, one red and one blue, flaming on one side and snowflakes drifting on the other, creating a strikingly dramatic effect reminiscent of premium wings from online games.

"Ha, no wonder they say red and blue make a classic pair, these two together do look quite nice." Jiang Yuan thought, and with a thought, the gigantic wings flexibly wrapped around him, ensuring he'd neither fear heat nor cold, even if he took a shirtless stroll around the North Pole.
