Beastmaster of the Ages - Chapter 7369

Chapter 7283: Killing Two Birds with One Stone

After seeing Li Chaoxi off, Li Tianming waited silently in place.

Some time later, Yin Chen finally brought news.

Aurora listened intently for a moment, then looked up at Li Tianming and said, “Tianming, Xiaoxiao says they’re ready. They’re about to launch a beast tide on the Tianqi Great Wall section. Be prepared.”

“Over there?” Li Tianming was slightly taken aback, then understood Lin Xiaoxiao’s intention. He smiled slightly and said, “Xiaoxiao’s thinking is quite thorough. This arrangement ensures the beast tide doesn’t occur on our section of the Great Wall, making it difficult for others to suspect us. This is the safest option for us.” Sui

Shenyao asked, somewhat puzzled, “If the beast tide is launched on the neighboring section of the Great Wall, where will our credit come from? Won’t we be doing all the work for someone else?”

“That’s simple. We go to the rescue. Not only will we gain merit, but we can also build a good relationship with this Li imperial family. Why not? This is a win-win opportunity,” Li Tianming said with a smile.

“Tianming is right. Whether this good relationship is genuine or not doesn’t really matter. The main thing is to show it to others. As long as the members of the Heavenly Emperor Sect approve, it’s beneficial to us,” Aurora nodded in agreement.

Just as he made up his mind, Li Tianming happened to be in the front hall of the War God Palace and immediately rang the War God Bell.

Clang! Clang! Clang!

He rang it three times, meaning that the deputy general, the border general, and the commander of ten thousand men would all come to the War God Palace for an audience.

The sound of the War God Bell resounded throughout the entire Tianba Great Wall section through the Dao array, ensuring everyone could hear it.

At this moment, countless members of the Demon Extermination Army along the entire Tianba Great Wall section were filled with curiosity, all stopping their work to look towards the War God Palace.

“What decision does War God Li have to make this time? The Great Wall section of Tianba has been quite peaceful lately, hasn’t it?”

“Could it be that a beast tide is coming?”

“He only summoned those above the rank of commander-in-chief. Perhaps it’s just a meeting to discuss the development direction of the Demon Extermination Army. Don’t panic.”

“But why do I feel like something big is about to happen…”

Some people felt a sense of unease, speculating about Li Tianming’s intentions.

Amidst the heated discussions, the various border generals and commanders-in-chief from each camp quickly departed from their residences for the War God Palace.

They dared not disobey Li Tianming’s orders, fearing they might displease him.

Although Li Tianming wouldn’t harm anyone without cause, if they delayed the battle, who could guarantee they wouldn’t suffer the same fate as Jiu Yang and Wei Qingyu, being executed on the spot?

Soon, including Yu Mo, the only deputy general, the seven border generals, and a thousand commanders-in-chief, all arrived at the front hall of the War God Palace.

They stood before Li Tianming, arranged in order of rank.

The formation of over a thousand men, each possessing considerable strength and the youngest hundreds of thousands of years old, all stood respectfully awaiting orders from Li Tianming, who was not even ten thousand years old.

The scene was astonishing, but everyone was willing.

Li Tianming, his gaze calm, looked at the bewildered generals and nodded slightly.

“Not bad, your reactions are quite swift. You haven’t neglected your emergency response capabilities in a thousand years,” Li Tianming praised generously.

The generals secretly wiped away sweat upon hearing this.

In truth, they were only so respectful in front of Li Tianming; even when deputy generals vied for power, they had probably never been this nervous when faced with orders.

At this moment, Yu Mo acted decisively and directly. She stepped forward, clasped her hands, and said, “War God Li, why have you suddenly summoned us today? Is there something important to arrange? If you are in a hurry, please speak frankly, and we will carry it out immediately to avoid delaying the battle.”

Faced with Yu Mo’s statement, Li Tianming smiled and waved his hand, saying, “There’s no need to be too hasty. Nothing major will happen in the short term. Just arrange things in an orderly manner.”

Jiang Guxu, with his white hair and beard, raised his eyebrows and respectfully asked, “War God Li, please speak freely. You are now the only authority in the Tianba Great Wall section, and we will all listen to you.”

Li Tianming’s eyes brightened as he glanced at everyone and said slowly with a smile, “Gentlemen, I have a premonition that the Primordial Demons may launch a beast tide, and I have summoned you all here to deal with this matter.”

As soon as he finished speaking, the pupils of the thousands of elites of the Tianba Demon Army shrank.

“What? A beast tide?”

A beast tide was coming! That was a major event!

The crowd began to whisper amongst themselves, some even itching to rush out of the War God Palace, spread the word to the Demon Slayer Army, and prepare for battle.

However, they quickly suppressed this impulse, even feeling a sense of unease.

“The lookouts haven’t detected anything unusual. How did War God Li know about the impending beast tide?”

someone wondered.

“I believe in War God Li. His intelligence capabilities are phenomenal. Have you forgotten how Jiu Yang and Wei Qingyu were defeated? War God Li must have discovered some clues about the ancient demons’ scheme.”

“Should we gather the entire army now and prepare to meet the enemy?”

Others, with almost unconditional faith in Li Tianming, immediately agreed.

At this moment, Qin Kuang of the Emperor Lion Leopard Clan stepped forward, his gaze sharp, and said, “War God Li, we certainly want to believe you. Your information should be based on something, and taking precautions in advance can reduce our losses. But how are we going to explain this to the entire Demon Extinction Army?”

“No need to pass it on. You should all prepare for battle first. After all, the intelligence I received is not yet certain, and there is no need for a major mobilization,” Li Tianming said with a slight smile. “If there is a need later, we can formally notify the entire army, which will be perfectly timely.”

Hearing this, the excitement of the crowd, which was almost as if a decisive battle was about to begin, was slightly suppressed.

“In that case, we will stay here for now and be ready to fight alongside War God Li at any time,” Jiang Guxu said, flicking his beard and sitting down steadily.

“That’s good. Please be patient,” Li Tianming said with a smile, gesturing for them to proceed.

The other border generals and commanders of ten thousand also had no objections and waited silently in the front hall of the War God Palace.

Time slowly passed…

After a long while…

Finally, some of the commanders began to grow impatient and began to express different opinions.

“So much time has passed, and the beast tide still hasn’t arrived. Could it be that Li Zhanshen’s information is flawed?”

“The brothers at the lookout tower haven’t seen a single thing on the front lines. Li Zhanshen probably misjudged the situation. Perhaps we should all go back.”

“We can understand. Li Zhanshen is extremely busy; it’s normal for him to make mistakes occasionally.”

Some harbored resentment and began to get up, secretly observing Li Tianming’s expression.

However, the order to disband that everyone was expecting was not issued. Instead, Li Tianming, in everyone’s eyes, was calmly meditating…
