Starting with Fireflies, Speedrun the World

As he spoke, Fei Xiao looked at the people on his left and right. On the left were members of the Masked Gang and a few members of the Dao Alliance.

On the right are the people from Tushan, including her two lieutenants, Cui Yuling, Tushan Honghong, and a Hongxianxian.

Hongxianxian is the true fighting force of Tushan, and Feixiao naturally cannot let her go, so he has initially formed a team.

Considering that the task of reincarnating and continuing the predestined relationship cannot be delayed, only about thirty people have joined so far, and more will be added gradually.

"There has been no reaction from the Northern Mountains and the Western Regions, but there have been more frequent border operations in the Southern Kingdom recently."

Upon hearing Fei Xiao's question, Wang Quan Baye immediately answered. Besides assisting Fei Xiao in re-managing the Yi Qi Dao Alliance, he had also been paying extra attention to the major forces on the border.

"Southern Kingdom..."

Chapter 47 The old thing that has lived for tens of thousands of years.

"Southern Kingdom... Poison Emperor... Huan Du Qing Tian..."

Listening to Wang Quanba's words, Fei Xiao recalled his understanding of the Southern Kingdom.

The southern lands, located on the border, can be said to be the most feared place.

As one of the four great demon kingdoms, the Southern Kingdom is predominantly inhabited by demons, with humans being a minority. The environment of the Southern Kingdom is particularly challenging; even at its peak, the Qi Alliance was unwilling to venture deep into it.

That place was overgrown with all sorts of poisonous creatures and filled with toxic fumes. Without the ability to resist poison, even a senior member of the Dao Alliance could easily get poisoned if they weren't careful.

Therefore, invading the southern kingdoms would be a losing proposition...

However, while Beishan and Xixi Regions remained silent after taking control of the Qi Dao Alliance, the Southern Kingdom made some unexpected moves.

In fact, apart from Aolai Kingdom, the one from the Southern Kingdom is one of the most senior figures in the entire circle.

An old thing that has lived for tens of thousands of years...

Even in the eyes of the people of the Immortal Ship, he was an old man with an extremely long lifespan.

Having lived for so long, and always been obedient in the South, now that I'm so old, I've started to have some thoughts.

Or perhaps it was the actions of the demon kings under his command?

Flying into the sky is unknown.

"Alright, you guys continue to keep an eye on the Southern Kingdom, and notify me immediately if there's any movement."

"The One Qi Alliance and Tushan will need some time. Once we have a complete grasp of them, the Southern Kingdom will be our next target."

After a moment of silent contemplation, Fei Xiao quickly made a decision. Although she wanted to start conquering the Southern Kingdom immediately, she still needed to suppress and reform the Yi Qi Dao Alliance here.

Although those old fogies of the Dao Alliance have been imprisoned and guarded by Fei Xiao, cooperation between humans and demons is not so easy. Without her strong suppression, who knows what kind of trouble might arise.

She didn't want the Qi Dao Alliance to run into problems right after she had just conquered the Southern Kingdom.

First stabilize the Qi Dao Alliance, then attack the external enemies!

Even if it's a violent suppression to make everyone obedient and prevent internal strife in the short term, it still takes some time.

Ultimately, Fei Xiao has very few people he can use and trust.

Even with the members of the Masked Gang, she wasn't entirely trusting. Although they didn't harbor the same fanatical hatred for the demon race as others, it was clear that they still held some resentment towards them.

However, due to the threats from Feixiao and the alien races outside the circle, it was temporarily suppressed.

Feixiao had no other people he could use, so for the time being he could only choose to trust the members of the Masked Gang.

"Yes, Senior Feixiao, we will continue to keep an eye on the Southern Kingdom and will notify you immediately of any changes."

Wang Quanba Ye nodded without hesitation upon hearing this. The environment in the Southern Kingdom was very troublesome for other cultivators, but these talented cultivators did not take it seriously.

Apart from that Poison King, the Masked Gang showed no fear of the other demon kings of the Southern Kingdom.

Even the Southern Poison King, though they had never fought him... they were confident they could escape unscathed. And even the Northern Mountain Demon Emperor, they had seen before...

Faced with absolute power, the Poison King of the Southern Kingdom may not be a match for the Demon Emperor of the Northern Mountain.

"Don't be careless. The other demon kings in the Southern Kingdom are no big deal, but that Poison Emperor is not as simple as you think."

"Otherwise, it would not have been able to control the Southern Kingdom for thousands of years without being shaken."

Noticing Wang Quanba's tone, Fei Xiao suddenly realized something and reminded him. In the original story, the Masked Gang was able to escape from the Poison Emperor not entirely because of their amazing strength.

Rather, it was because the Poison King hadn't used his true power; otherwise, they wouldn't have been able to leave at all.

That Poison King lived too long; it was only because he's old now, and with the birth of his daughter Huan Du Luo Lan, that he's lost his original ruthlessness.

Otherwise, if it were him in his younger days, he would be a nightmare for the vast majority of people in the world.

In his youth, Huan Du Qingtian was incredibly brave. When he was weak, he ventured alone into the poisonous Wuhuang Mountain, filled with poisonous fog and weeds, to save his beloved. After he became powerful, he single-handedly quelled the rebellion of the seventy-two cave masters of the Southern Kingdom.

"Of course, senior need not worry."

Upon hearing Fei Xiao's instructions, Wang Quan Baye was taken aback, seemingly somewhat surprised, but still nodded in response.

"..."

Seeing Wang Quanba's expression, Fei Xiao couldn't tell if he had listened. But she had given him all the necessary reminders, and if things really went wrong because of her arrogance, there was nothing she could do.

It's fine for geniuses to have their own arrogance, but they also need to know how to recognize and respect their opponents.

"Big brother..."

Seeing that the important matters had been discussed to a near conclusion, Li Quzhuo, Qingmu Yuan, and the others cautiously reminded Wang Quanba Ye.

Upon hearing their reminder, Wang Quanba suddenly realized that they still had matters to discuss with Feixiao.

"By the way, Senior Feixiao, what are your specific plans regarding the various clan heads and seniors of the Dao Alliance?"

Wang Quanba asked earnestly about the solutions for those senior family heads of the Yi Qi Dao Alliance. Currently, those senior experts are all fine; they have just had their magic power sealed and have been imprisoned.

Although they are here to cooperate with Feixiao's unification and prepare for the conquest of the alien races outside the circle.

But those were, after all, their elders, and the pillars of the human race. The entire human race could not rely on just these people.

Although the Masked Clan was confident that they were no weaker than those demon kings and demon emperors, their existence was still necessary...

"You don't need to worry about that. They are only temporarily detained, and nothing will happen to them."

Fei Xiao first assured them that this was agreed upon from the beginning, and that since they were their elders, it was impossible for them to completely disregard it; it was only human nature, and Fei Xiao understood.

Then, Feixiao added.

"If you can persuade them to accept unification and cooperate with the demon race for mutual benefit, you can naturally release them to contribute to the fight against the alien races outside the circle."

"If they remain stubborn, then we can only stay there for now and wait until we have completely unified the country and the situation has stabilized before we can see how things go."

"After all, you are well aware of the significant impact letting them out before things stabilize would have on the situation..."

These elders of the Dao Alliance have too much influence in the One Qi Dao Alliance. If they are not accepted for unification and allowed to come out, it will only make it more difficult for Fei Xiao and the others to stabilize the situation.

Wang Quanba and his group were naturally well aware of this.

"We understand now, thank you, senior."

After hearing Fei Xiao's words, the members of the Masked Gang breathed a sigh of relief; things were much easier to handle than they had expected.

Although persuading those stubborn elders to accept Feixiao's unification and cooperate with the demon race for mutual benefit is an extremely troublesome matter, at least there is hope.

Moreover, not all older generations are stubborn; they believe that many elders still have a broad perspective, as long as the situation is explained.

Faced with the world-ending crisis outside the circle, there will surely be people who will put aside their hatred for the demon race and cooperate to deal with the alien race outside the circle.

After discussing these matters, Fei Xiao brought up the management of the Yi Qi Dao Alliance and Tu Shan, as well as the arrangements for ordinary people.

To be honest, in the territory of the One Qi Dao Alliance, cultivators and Taoists are only a minority, they are the managers... the high and mighty Taoist masters, and most of them are just ordinary people.

In this world where individual strength is paramount, ordinary people with little power have little say.

Because of the Dao Alliance's attitude towards the demon race over the years, ordinary people also have great fear and rejection of the demon race.

There is no way to change this situation in a short time. Even if Fei Xiaolai came, he could not do anything unless the Memory Traveler could reshape everyone's memories.

Otherwise, we can only rely on time to slowly change everything...

Judging from the situation several hundred years later in the original story, peaceful unification between humans and demons is not a problem. As long as there is a plan, the rest can be left to time.

Therefore, what Feixiao needs to do now is to reform the regulations of the Yiqi Dao Alliance.

In this respect, Fei Xiao took a shortcut and directly borrowed the peace laws of the Celestial Race and other races in the Immortal Boat Alliance, and then used the peaceful management methods of the One Qi Dao Alliance and the Demon Kingdom in the original work.

If this policy is implemented, the vast majority of this generation will likely find it unacceptable, but their next generation and the generation after that will live according to this rule, and the goal will naturally be achieved.

Therefore, the state of the world mainly depends on the decisions made by those in power.

This has been the case in every dynasty...

"Okay, that's all for now. I'll leave the specific details to you."

After finishing the most important tasks, Fei Xiao stood up and announced the end of the meeting.

This kind of mental work feels even more tiring than fighting, especially with the help of staff and others.

She really couldn't handle it alone.

"It should."

The others also stood up, preparing to go down and handle the following matters.

In the end, only Cui Yuling and Tu Shan Honghong remained in the room.

"You've taken down the Qi Dao Alliance so quickly, that's amazing! Fei Xiao, you said before that you wanted to unify the inner circle, conquer the alien races outside the circle, and reclaim your homeland. Now I'm even more looking forward to it."

Cui Yuling cupped her cheeks in her hands, looking at Fei Xiao before her, her three large eyes shining brightly.

Although she knew that Feixiao was powerful, she was still very surprised that he had taken down the Yiqi Dao Alliance so quickly. Since humans mastered magic weapons, they had long since become a powerful whole.

Never been conquered by anyone else...

More importantly, Feixiao's goal is not just to occupy the Yiqi Dao Alliance, but also to make it cooperate with the demon race, directly changing the original social model.

She hadn't taken Fei Xiao's words seriously before, but now they were starting to come true step by step.

Tu Shan Honghong, standing beside her, was also filled with anticipation. It seemed that she had finally seen the hope for peace between humans and demons today.

At this moment, she had no other thoughts and was ready to wholeheartedly assist Feixiao in achieving unification.

There are also those outside the circle. Although she doesn't know much about the situation outside the circle, after hearing so much about it, she understands its harm and naturally cannot remain indifferent.
