    He called out, “Fellow Daoist Chen! Taoist Wuji! How are you?”


    Upon hearing Wu Hao’s voice, David immediately opened the Dragon-Patterned Bell and walked out, aiding the weakened Taoist Wuji.


    “Lord, we’re fine. It’s just that the seal of Leiyin Temple… has shattered. One hundred thousand demon souls are already heading straight for the Divine Capital!”


    Wu Hao’s heart sank. Just as he was about to inquire about the situation in the Divine Capital, hurried footsteps suddenly sounded in the distance.


    Wu Yue, dressed in tattered clothes, disheveled hair, face stained with dust and blood, stumbled towards them, followed by several cultivators from the Secret Investigation Division.


    “Father!”


    Seeing Wu Hao, Wu Yue could no longer contain herself, throwing herself into his arms and bursting into tears.


    Wu Hao hugged his daughter tightly. Seeing that she was covered in wounds, he felt pain and anger in his heart: “Yuer! Why are you here? What happened to Shendu?”


    Wu Yue cried and said, “Father, Shendu… Shendu is gone! Liu Kun led the evil spirit into the city. The soldiers and civilians fought to the death, but the evil spirit was too strong. Everyone… was killed! Liu Kun finally let me go and blew himself up to apologize…”


    She choked and described the tragic situation in Shendu: mountains of corpses, burning houses, the rampant evil spirits, the tragic resistance of the civilians and soldiers… Every word was like a sharp knife, piercing the hearts of Wu Hao and everyone present.


    “Liu Kun! Demon Soul!”


    Wu Hao was so angry that he was shaking all over. He suddenly drew the sword at his waist and pointed it in the direction of Shendu. “I will lead the army back personally to avenge the people and soldiers of Shendu! Ao Lie, pass on my order, the entire army will assemble and follow me to the battle!”


    “Your Majesty


    , You can’t do that!” David immediately stepped forward to stop him. “The Demon Soul has a hundred thousand people, and they have a powerful immortal realm master like Soul Devourer in charge. With only our few imperial guards, we are no match for them! If we force an attack, we will only die in vain!”


    “Then what do you say we should do? Are we just going to stand by and watch the demonic


    Spirit wreaks havoc without avenging the people of the Divine Capital?”


    Wu Hao’s eyes were red, his voice hoarse.


    “Revenge is certainly necessary, but not now,”


    David said gravely. “Now, the only way to stand against the demonic spirit army is to unite all the human and beast races of the Sixth Heaven, pooling all our strength. If we attack rashly, the Sixth Heaven will bepletely hopeless!”


    Taoist Wuji also recovered and nodded in agreement. “David is absolutely right. The ruler is the core of the Sixth Heaven’s human race. We must not act impulsively. Uniting all forces is the only way to break the impasse.”


    Wu Yue wiped away her tears and said to Wu Hao, “Father, Fellow Daoist Chen is right. We can’t sacrifice any more in vain. For the people of the Divine Capital, for the Sixth Heaven, we must calm down.”


    Wu Hao looked at his daughter’s determined eyes, then at the ruined Leiyin Temple and the exhausted crowd before him. He took a deep breath and finally suppressed his anger.


    He gripped his sword tightly and dered in a deep voice, “Alright! I hear you! As the ruler of the Divine Kingdom, I call upon all human and beast races in the Sixth Heaven to gather at Leiyin Temple and jointly resist the Demonic Soul!”


    As soon as he finished speaking, Wu Hao fetched pen and ink and personally wrote the call!


    The call detailed the dangers of the Demonic Soul’s emergence and the dire situation in the Divine Capital, calling on all races in the Sixth Heaven to put aside their past grudges and unite to fight the


    demonic spirit! Afterpleting the call, he affixed a dragon-patterned jade seal and handed it to a cultivator from the Secret Investigation Division: “Immediately disseminate this order throughout the Sixth Heaven. Ensure that every force receives the message!”


    The cultivators of the Secret Investigation Division, upon receiving the order, transformed into several ck shadows and sped off in all directions.


    Meanwhile, the various races in the Sixth Heaven had already been gripped by the appearance of the Demonic Soul.


    When Wu Hao’s call reached everyone, everyone realized that this was a crisis not only for the Divine Kingdom, but for the entire Sixth Heaven…
