Following the resolute departure of Haofeng, the skies over Xizhou seemed tinged with a faint shade of apprehension. Inside the alliance headquarters' council chamber, the atmosphere was solemn and tense. Sect leaders and elders had gathered to discuss the impending crisis. The massive invasion by the Demon race hung like a sharp sword poised above everyone's heads, threatening to descend at any moment and shatter this brief tranquility.
"Everyone, the Demon race is already making hostile moves. We must make thorough preparations," Yun Yixuan said in a calm and powerful voice, though he could hardly conceal the anxiety beneath it. He knew full well that while Haofeng's departure served the greater picture, it also instantly weakened Xizhou's defensive strength significantly.
Nangong Jin let out a light sigh, gently waving his folding fan as if deep in thought. "The Demon race's actions clearly indicate they have learned of Haofeng's absence. Behind this, a traitor is undoubtedly at work. We must unmask this turncoat as soon as possible; otherwise, morale will scatter and the defense lines will be impossible to hold."
