Although he inwardly teased Jin Xuan about being his spy within the Gods' Covenant Alliance, Xiao Mo also knew that Jin Xuan's actions were intended to foster a good relationship with him and lay the groundwork for their future in-depth cooperation.
"Qian Mo, what are your plans now? I've received the latest intelligence. Many top lords within the alliance are secretly supporting the Immortal Slaying Demon Slaying Alliance coalition!"
"They're selling some of their top-tier troops at very low prices to the Immortal Slaying Demon Slaying Alliance. Currently, it's estimated they've already received support from over five hundred top-tier units!"
"As for whether other alliances have also provided them support, I can't say for sure. Qian Mo, you might really be in trouble this time!"
Seeing these messages, Xiao Mo merely smiled faintly.
In trouble? What kind of trouble could he be in?
Under the barrage of artillery fire from the Nine Heavens Nine Underworlds City's Immortal and Demon Spirit Energy Cannons, even if the entire assembled force consisted of top-tier troops, they would still be annihilated without a doubt.
What's more, this was merely the addition of a few hundred top-tier units as reinforcements.
Could a pot of soup made with a few rat droppings, merely by adding a few pieces of meat, transform into a pot of delicious soup?
A rabble was still a rabble!
Subsequently, Xiao Mo ignored Jin Xuan's concern and responded mockingly, "Thank you to the top lords for being so talented! To think of selling their territory's troops, indirectly assisting in the attack on my Immortal and Demon tribe. Excellent! Truly excellent!"
Jin Xuan: "From your tone, you don't seem worried at all!"
Qian Mo: "Worried? What is there to be worried about? The allied forces' vanguard has already assembled at the edge of the Vast Forest. I simply don't want to make a move yet. They aren't worthy of me making a move right now!"
Jin Xuan: "You're amazing (thumbs-up emoji)! Do you mean you want to capture the entire allied army in one fell swoop?"
Qian Mo: "That's right! Who told me I'm lazy? I prefer to solve all problems in one go!"
Jin Xuan: "Oh? You told me this so easily. Aren't you afraid I'll betray you to the coalition?"
When sending this message, Jin Xuan was in a very happy mood.
After all, Qian Mo had told her such a secret, which undoubtedly meant he had gained her trust.
Unfortunately, the next message from Qian Mo made her vision go black with anger, and she almost lost her temper and smashed something.
Qian Mo: "The problem is, would you dare betray me? Your territory is only about three thousand kilometers away from the Immortal and Demon tribe, right? How long do you think it would take me to reach you? Or, how many minutes do you think it would take me to flatten your Endless Barrens? You can also guess if I would make a move against you!"
This was blatant manipulation, almost grinding the fairy's dignity into the dirt.
"My dear old aunt wishes you a lifetime of being single! A lifetime without friends!!!"
After receiving this message, Xiao Mo's message interface showed that Jin Xuan had gone offline.
Xiao Mo chuckled. Just as he was about to go offline, he saw Jin Xuan come online again and quickly send another message.
"Let me tell you, the coalition plus reinforcements are incredibly strong! You'd best not die! But it's fine if you die, I'll just find someone else to cooperate with!"
Xiao Mo glanced at the message, shook his head helplessly.
Unsure how to respond, he simply didn't reply and closed the chat interface.
The night passed remarkably quickly.
He slept until he woke up naturally, and by then, the sky outside his window was already bright.
"Today is bound to be a busy day! But it will also be a happy day! Heh heh..."
Sitting up in bed, Xiao Mo looked at the rising sun outside his window, a sinister smile curving his lips.
After tidying himself up and eating breakfast, Xiao Mo had just reached the plaza when he saw a dense crowd gathered there.
This time, multiple Immortal and Demon troop types were assembled in perfect formation before the double-sided Immortal and Demon statue.
At the entrance to the [Immortal and Demon Ancestral Hall] were the Immortal and Demon Death Squad and the Immortal and Demon Iron Guard, as well as the more than twenty Heaven-Brightening Sparrows.
Beneath the ancient, natural trees, even more figures were gathered. As far as the eye could see, they were all Natural Treants, numbering over a thousand.
These Natural Treants were both male and female; the males were handsome and dashing, the females beautiful and graceful, with slender figures.
Behind the more than a thousand Natural Treants stood a full twenty Treants, thirty meters tall, of Water and Fire.
Xiao Mo examined the appearances of these Treants and nodded to himself.
This was his first time seeing real Treants, but their appearance was not much different from how they were depicted in movies and some novels.
Treants were ancient trees that, after absorbing spiritual energy over a long period, mutated.
Their sturdy trunks formed their bodies, their roots served as their feet, their branches were their arms, and a lush crown of leaves grew on their heads.
As for their faces and features, they were located on the main trunk, giving them a very peculiar appearance.
"I didn't expect the Natural Treant legion to arrive so quickly!"
Xiao Mo surveyed the dense figures of Treants around him, inwardly sighing with emotion.
The Natural Treant tribe was over a hundred kilometers away from the Immortal and Demon tribe.
For Immortal and Demon troops, this distance was merely a ten-minute journey.
But for this legion, most of whom lacked the ability to fly, a hundred-kilometer distance was not short.
If they weren't the darlings of nature, possessing inexhaustible spiritual energy and able to march rapidly through forests and mountains as if on level ground, it would have been difficult to arrive in just one night.
What pleased Xiao Mo the most was that this Natural Treant legion had not forgotten to hunt on their way here.
Basically, all the magical beasts they encountered along the way were killed, and their carcasses were brought back to the Immortal and Demon tribe.
Currently, several Immortal and Demon Death Warriors were processing and dissecting these beast carcasses.
"Reporting, my lord!"
Just then, Xian Qing'er walked up to Xiao Mo, bowed respectfully, and reported: "The underground Dwarf tribe has also assembled a Dwarf battle group of two thousand. They are currently stationed in the underground space five kilometers south of the Vast Forest!"
"As soon as the war breaks out, they will immediately enter the battlefield and share your burdens!"
Hearing Xian Qing'er's report, Xiao Mo was slightly taken aback.
He recalled that he had not intended to assemble the Dwarf battle group this time.
After all, the underground Dwarves would play a limited role in this war and would suffer unnecessary casualties.
Therefore, Xiao Mo had no intention of mobilizing the military strength of the Dwarf tribe from the outset.
Thinking of this, Xiao Mo waved his hand at Xian Qing'er without hesitation.
"Inform the Dwarf battle group to immediately withdraw from their current post! They do not need to participate in this war. They can directly proceed to the Dwarf Kingdom and await the arrival of our army!"
"Yes, my lord! I shall announce your command immediately!"
Xian Qing'er responded respectfully, her figure flashing and disappearing in a white light.
A moment later, Xian Qing'er returned to the Immortal and Demon tribe and reported back to Xiao Mo.
The Dwarf battle group had received the Holy Lord's command and had set off for the Dwarf Kingdom, which was over seven hundred kilometers away.
In the underground world, there were fast transport tunnels established by various underground races, allowing the Dwarf battle group to reach the vicinity of the Dwarf Kingdom with the greatest speed.
There, they would await the arrival of the Immortal and Demon tribe's army.
"Wu Xin! Come back for a moment!"
Xiao Mo called out in his mind.
A moment later, Mo Wu Xin's figure emerged from the void.
Having received Xiao Mo's summons, he, who had been monitoring the movements of the Immortal Slaying Demon Slaying Alliance coalition, immediately tore through the void and returned to the territory's city, appearing before Xiao Mo.
"My lord! I have returned!"
Mo Wu Xin approached Xiao Mo and bowed respectfully.
Xiao Mo nodded slightly, then inquired, "What is the situation over there now?"
Mo Wu Xin replied, "Reporting, my lord, lords have been gathering intermittently throughout the night. Nearly six hundred people have assembled so far, with nearly forty thousand flying units."
"However, the strength of these lords and their subordinate troops is currently pitifully weak. The strongest are only at the peak of the tenth tier, while the weakest are only at the second or third tier."
Hearing Mo Wu Xin's report, Xiao Mo slowly nodded.
It was clear that the main force of the coalition had not yet arrived.
"In that case, you continue to monitor them! Notify me immediately once they have all assembled!"
Xiao Mo raised an eyebrow and said to Mo Wu Xin.
"Yes, my lord!"
As the words fell, Mo Wu Xin's figure vanished into the void once more.
With Mo Wu Xin present, Xiao Mo could know the situation at the coalition's assembly point at any time.
Once the coalition was fully assembled, he would, without delay, give them a grand gift!
