(Sect Mistress Mu POV)
If I said that we were confident of taking down the Demon God ourselves, I would be lying.
Our initial plan was to send as many people as possible to wear him down like the last time before the five of us moved in to fight him for real. Obviously no one would be willing to throw their lives away so we convinced everyone that he would be at his weakest in his first few moments of his revival.
They would then be blinded by the possibility of receiving glory by slaying him and thus rush towards attacking him with everything they had.
They wouldn't even care if the brothers and sisters beside them fell to the Demon God's attacks since, to them, it just meant fewer competition.
But even that had a limit, since they would start to see their attacks were pointless after the Demon God brushes them away effortlessly for the umpteenth time.
