Longwei's Plan

As Longwei stood in front of the three demon commanders and gave them his ultimatum to either follow him or die, his body emanated an aura fit for a ruler, resembling a true emperor which caused the three commanders to involuntarily submit to him.

It was this sense of majesty and strength that Longwei projected while he was in the sky which made these demons willing to submit to him. One has to know demons were chaotic in nature, and it was almost impossible for them to behave in an orderly manner. But in front of Longwei, they were like a bunch of stray cats.

From this moment onwards, Longwei had a group of bloodthirsty demons under his command. He had two dragons and three demon Saints or greater demons plus one 10th rank peak little monkey. Right now, his strength was enough to rule this whole Archaic continent.

The other three human Saints were a little dissatisfied with him not because he proclaimed himself as the supreme ruler of the Archaic continent, but because of how he had handled the demons. They wanted him to kill every single demon because of how the human race has suffered in the past in their hands. As for Longwei, he did not care about their opinion or pay any heed to their dissatisfaction in the slightest.

Longwei always put his personal interest first in everything. Now that he was a participant in the Universe's Ruler Selection Death Game. he needed all the help he could get, and he couldn't just count only on the humans to take over the whole Scared Mainland. He needed to conquer them all if he wanted to rule this piece of land. Plus, if he won this Universe's Ruler Selection Death game, he would be considered as the father and the protector of all the races. Furthermore, the humans on the Archaic continent were not strong enough to stand against the demons and the other races on their own.

After this short battle, Longwei had already figured out a ton of things about his strength. The Mystic Energy was indeed powerful but it will take a lot of effort and time to increase it. Unlike a regular Saint expert, who absorbs the world energy to raise and nourish their Nascent Elemental soul, Longwei needs Mystic Energy to nourish his soul which was a thousand times harder.

Also, Longwei's cultivation could be considered backward. A regular human or warrior has to form their Nascent Elemental soul before they can condense their Godship and break through the Demi-God rank, yet Longwei had a Godship that had been bound to his soul before he even became a Saint master, which meant his way of cultivation was uncommon and unique.

After the short battle, Longwei and the human Saints as well as the group of demons under him left this place and went to the Yang Imperial Capital. Before Longwei left, he made the three Kougala demon beasts become his pets with the Gamer's Godship so that they would be loyal to him. As for the three demon commanders, he just left a strand of his Mystic Energy within each of them that would allow him to know each of their locations. Furthermore, this strand of Mystic Energy was like a ticking bomb and Longwei could set it off at any given moment if they were to ever betray him, but they had to be in the Sacred Mainland in order for it to work.

Yang Imperial Capital

The capital of the Yang Empire was like a ghost town after the crown prince had used nearly half of the population for his demonic ritual. By this time, almost everyone in the Archaic continent had learned about the crown prince's betrayal as well as the broken illusionary barrier. Because of these events, everybody now believed in the existence as well as the threat of the demons.

"Brother Wei, now that you have taken care of the demon scouts and the demons in the Demon continent are now aware of our existence, what is your plan?"

In the second floor of a two-story building of the Jade Auction House, Longwei and his group, as well as the three human Saints, were seated in what seemed to be a living room.

After Longwei had subdued the three demon commanders as well as their underlings, they were able to get information about the outside world. Aside from that, they also got a rough idea of the strength of the demons in the Demon continent, along with information about their power structure and the other races residing in the Sacred Mainland. Each of these pieces of information was like a heavy bomb and gave them a fright.

They realized how weak they were compared to demons and the other races. If it wasn't for Longwei, they would have had a hard time fighting against the three demon commanders by themselves. They were powerful Saints just like the demon commanders, yet there were 72 total commanders and those three were the weakest ones. That's not even considering the strength of the Grand Dukes. They realized how pathetic they were. It was only because of the overwhelming power of Longwei that they were able to get out of this situation unscathed. They had long since come to regard Longwei as their leader despite not knowing much about him because they knew that if he wanted to, he could easily kill every Saint in the Archaic continent by himself.

"My plan is simple. I'm going to keep on increasing my strength while simultaneously establishing an organization to do my bidding as well as defend the Archaic continent against any hostile forces. So you guys don't need to worry, I am not going to take over your territory and proclaim myself the emperor of the human race. Even though I said I was the Supreme Ruler of this island, it was just to scare the demons a little as well as keeping them from invading the island without thinking twice."

After Longwei killed nearly half of the demon army, as well as making the remainder his underlings, he had purposely let five more of them free to return to the Demon continent. The reason for this was simple. He wanted them to inform the Grand Dukes, the nine most powerful demons who each ruled over a territory, that the Archaic continent had a powerful backer behind it. A careless invasion without his permission could only mean death.

Longwei formulated this plan before he even faced the demons. He already knew that once the demons learned about this place and the humans living here, they would do whatever they could to conquer their land and enslaved them, especially the Grand Dukes who were the representatives and apostles of the Devil in this world. Even if he had killed all the demons that invaded the Archaic continent, they would still eventually learn about the existence of this island. The crowm prince Yang Chao had already betrayed the human race and joined with the demons, so Longwei needed to make a statement.

As such, Longwei demonstrated a little bit of his power in front the demons by killing more than half of them with just a single attack. This ensured that the Grand Dukes will view him as a powerful force and won't attack carelessly. Also, he has bought himself some time by doing that. Even though the Grand Dukes were the representants of the Devil in this world, they dislike cooperating with one another, especially after the death of the Demon Lord.

The Demon Lord was their leader and the most powerful demon of them all. Now that he had died, they had no one to take orders from and were always fighting against one another for the post of the Demon Lord. In other words, although the demons as well the Grand Dukes were extremely powerful, they didn't have a supreme ruler or a single leader to coordinate them.

"Can I join your organization?"

This time it wasn't Qin Nan who addressed Longwei, but one of the Feng brothers. After listening to Longwei's words, as well as witnessing his power and his majesty, he had decided to follow him if he ever found the opportunity. Now that he had learned how strong the demons were, he was certain that he wouldn't be able to protect his family as well as his people by himself. Having someone as powerful as Longwei as his backer was the best thing he could ever hope for.

"Sure, why not? If any of you want to join my organization, the door is wide open for you."

Longwei was more than happy to recruit any of them, after all, they were all Saint masters. They had the strength to contend against a thousand warriors below the Saint rank.

"I would like to join your organization as well brother Wei, but before that, I must discuss it with my father as well as the other Saints in the Qin Empire."

Qin Nan knew that it was also a good opportunity to follow Longwei. He could feel that Longwei wasn't simple and he might have the power and resources to make them stronger. However, he had to discuss that with his father, the Ancestor of the Qin family. He was an Emperor and couldn't casually become the underling of someone without the approval or the advice of the elders. Not to mention, he has to consider the safety of the Qin Empire.

"Sure, take your time," answered Longwei with a slight smile on his face. He really admired Qin Nan's personality, which is why he really wanted to have him in his organization.

"Thanks, brother Wei."

"You guys can leave now. I am pretty sure that you have many things to take care of."

"Also, Feng Ping I advise you to relocate your people into the Archaic continent from the nine small islands. If the demons attack your islands, it will take us some time before we can provide some assistance. Now that the Yang Empire is without an owner, you can just take it and use it as your new base for the Nine Seas Alliance."

"I know it won't be easy to relocate all of your people, but I can lend you the Kougala demon beasts to make things easier for you."

Now that Feng Ping has joined his organization, he would treat him well. Longwei was always kind to his subordinates and ruthless to his enemies.

'"Thank you, my lord."

Feng Ping was beyond happy when he heard Longwei's words as well as his concerns for his people. After the battle, he was thinking about evacuating his people, but he didn't know where to evacuate to, or how to evacuate them in a timely fashion. There were more than two hundred thousand people living in the nine islands. He was worried about demons coming to his islands and wreaking havoc. He was lucky that the demons came to the shore of the Archaic continent first; if it was one of his islands instead, thousands of innocent people would have lost their lives.

Even though the Yang Empire was without an owner after the crown prince massacred the Imperial Family, he still was not strong enough to take it over even if he wanted to because of the Qin Empire. Now, with just a few words, Longwei had casually given him all the territory of the Yang Empire in the presence of Qin Nan. Furthermore, Qin nan did not voice any complaints, but instead smiled towards him and offered his congratulations. This left Feng Ping speechless and happy at the same time. He knew that following Longwei despite his pride was the best choice he had made in his entire life.

'Ok, now that that's settled, I am just waiting for Feng Li to bring the people I asked him to find. After that I will head deep into the forest to start the first step of my plan, the creation of a village,' thought Longwei with a look of anticipation on his face.
