"What strategy?" The Great Witch Emperor looked at Wu He with interest and asked.

Wu He chuckled softly and said, "Isn’t that Lord Zhao Yue of the Demon Sect still imprisoned in the Imprisoned Dragon Abyss?"

"Anyway, she’s destined to die, so why don’t we make use of her?"

Wu He said with a smile.

The Great Witch Emperor frowned and asked, "Just speak directly, what do you intend to do?"

Wu He said, "Let’s use Zhao Yue to hold a Demon Slaying Conference!"

"Father, you can refine a Demon Slaying Platform within the Great Witch Dynasty. When the time comes, I will get the Gu Family of the East Continent Academy to speak up, inviting on behalf of the Great Witch Dynasty and the East Continent Academy..."

"Invite all the warriors of the East Continent, from the current Three Great Regions, Shenwu Kingdom, the Four Hidden World Families, and other powerful figures within the territories, to come to the Great Witch Dynasty to witness the event!"

"I believe that with the joint invitation of the Great Witch Dynasty and the East Continent Academy, the strong ones above the East Continent will surely gather!"

"Even the Four Hidden World Families might give some respect!"

"Moreover, those territories, sects, and families destroyed by the Demon Sect, must harbor deep hatred for Zhao Yue, and won’t miss this Demon Slaying Conference!"

"Even though they are rebuilding their territories and families, they will still come to see their enemy die before them!"

"In this way, wouldn’t it gather the strong ones of the East Continent again?"

Wu He said with a smile.

The Great Witch Emperor froze for a moment, then laughed and said, "Yes, this is indeed a good plan. Moreover, if we invite Shenwu Kingdom, Bai Xiaoxiao might also come!"

"Then..."

"Heh heh!"

At this point, both the Great Witch Emperor and Wu He revealed sinister smiles on their faces.

But then, the Great Witch Emperor frowned and said, "But... there’s still one month until the half-year agreement with the Saint of the East Continent, Lin Bai. Isn’t it too early to start preparations now?"

Wu He laughed, "Father, if we truly win over a few strong figures or super powers, would we still fear Lin Bai? Or the East Continent Academy?"

"Isn’t our goal to unite the East Continent?"

"Anyone who stands in our way is an enemy, including Lin Bai and the East Continent Academy!"

Wu He said sinisterly.

The Great Witch Emperor nodded and said, "That’s right, this is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity for the Great Witch Dynasty. We must seize it!"

"Then let’s proceed as the Crown Prince suggested!"

"Prepare for this Demon Slaying Conference. I will handle the matters of the Great Witch Dynasty; as for the East Continent Academy, let the Crown Prince manage it."

The Great Witch Emperor said coldly.

Wu He nodded and said, "Yes!"

Immediately, three days later.

A shocking news spread throughout Heaven.

The East Continent Academy and the Great Witch Dynasty jointly issued an invitation: One month later, in the Imperial Palace of the Great Witch Dynasty, on the Demon Slaying Platform, Zhao Yue will be executed to honor the warriors destroyed by the Demon Sect! Inviting all warriors from the East Continent to witness in the Imperial Palace of the Great Witch Dynasty!

After this news went out, the warriors across the East Continent were in a frenzy.

Especially the warriors from the Eight Dynasties and the Six Territories that were obliterated, clapping in delight and eager to head to the Great Witch Dynasty to witness this Demon Slaying Conference firsthand!

...

Dongsheng River, right side of Thousand Territories!

Within the Imperial City of Shenwu Kingdom, Bai Xiaoxiao, clad in imperial robes, held a golden silk book in her hand. After reading the text, her eyes stared dazedly at the sky.

Behind Bai Xiaoxiao stood Imperial Master Shang Lang and Divine General Chu Jiangliu in respectful attendance.

"Did you all see it?" After a long silence, Bai Xiaoxiao asked.

Chu Jiangliu nodded slightly, without speaking.

Imperial Master Shang Lang responded, "Returning to Emperor Xiao, I am aware of this. The news was not only sent to Shenwu Kingdom but also spread across the East Continent in the name of the East Continent Academy and the Great Witch Dynasty!"

"And now, an envoy from the Great Witch Dynasty holds this silk book, inviting Your Majesty to the Great Witch Dynasty to witness the ceremony!"

"This envoy from the Great Witch Dynasty waits outside the hall. What does Emperor Xiao decide... to go, or not to go?"

Imperial Master Shang Lang asked cautiously.

Bai Xiaoxiao asked, "What is the Imperial Master’s opinion?"

Imperial Master Shang Lang immediately clasped his hands and said, "Your Majesty, Zhao Yue, the Demon Sect Master, is extremely evil. The chaos in the Demon Sect has wreaked havoc on the East Continent, countless sects and families have perished, living beings suffer, angering both gods and humans!"

"And our Shenwu Kingdom seized this opportunity to become the ruler of the right side of Thousand Territories along Dongsheng River!"

"Moreover, we gained control of Divine Dragon Domain, East Mountain Area, and other large territories!"

"The warriors in these territories were slaughtered by the Demon Sect, their fury unsatisfied. If Emperor Xiao represents Shenwu Kingdom at this conference, it could win public support!"

"From then on, all warriors within the right side of Thousand Territories along Dongsheng River would surely submit to Your Majesty sincerely!"

"This is only beneficial, without harm, for Shenwu Kingdom!"

Imperial Master Shang Lang shared his thoughts with Emperor Xiao.

After listening, Emperor Xiao did not respond but sank into silence.

Without receiving a reply from Emperor Xiao, Shang Lang began to sweat, his eyes darting nervously, pondering if he said something wrong.

After waiting a while, Bai Xiaoxiao still did not speak, so Shang Lang said, "Of course, if Emperor Xiao does not wish to go, we can find a suitable excuse..."

Before Shang Lang finished speaking, Bai Xiaoxiao asked, "Prince Chu, where is Lin Bai?"

Interrupted, Shang Lang hastily closed his mouth.

Chu Jiangliu clasped his hands and said, "Emperor Xiao, since Sword Prince left the East Continent half a year ago, he hasn’t returned. I sent warriors to inquire at the East Continent Academy, and the news suggests Sword Prince went to the North State to search for a treasure!"

Emperor Xiao said, "Still not back?"

"Chu Jiangliu, dispatch all spies within the army to enter the Great Witch Dynasty in batches, I want to control all movements within the Great Witch Dynasty, and the list of strong figures coming to witness the conference!"

"Additionally, mobilize the Shadow Department. I don’t care what methods you use, in half a month, I want Sword Prince informed of everything regarding this Demon Slaying Conference!"

Emperor Xiao said coldly.

"Yes, Your Majesty!" Chu Jiangliu responded.

Emperor Xiao looked at Imperial Master Shang Lang and said, "Inform the envoy from the Great Witch Dynasty that this Emperor will arrive at the Great Witch Imperial Palace on September 15 to witness the Demon Slaying Conference!"

Imperial Master Shang Lang was pleased, quickly clasping his hands and saying, "Yes, Your Majesty, I’ll inform the envoy from the Great Witch Dynasty immediately..."

But once again, before Shang Lang could finish, Emperor Xiao coldly called out, "Chu Jiangliu!"

Shang Lang was interrupted again, his heart remained chilly, astute and perceptive, he had already noticed Emperor Xiao’s peculiarity.

What Emperor Xiao said next to Chu Jiangliu made Shang Lang’s hair stand on end!

"At your service." Chu Jiangliu replied seriously.

Emperor Xiao said, "Gather the army, prepare for battle!"

"I understand!" Chu Jiangliu nodded.
