Chapter 182: War is about to begin
Chapter 182: War is about to begin
On the northern coast of Dongzhou, the sun sets, and its afterglow illuminates the vast battlefield. Although the battle is over, blood and dust still fill the air, like a cruel picture.
The originally boundless blue sea surface was also stained with blood with a light red hue. Various remains of demons and sea monsters were floating on it, and there were also some attire of immortal disciples.
There were many sirens in the sea and on the shore cleaning up the battlefield and collecting the corpses of their own kind. Some of them had transformed into human form with most of their skin exposed.
King Chongming flew barefoot at low altitude, and along the way, the demons half-knelt to salute her. She casually waved her hand to let the demons go ahead and walked towards the depths of the land.
The further you go in, the more humans you encounter. Most of them are dressed in the attire of the major immortal sects in Dongzhou, and some are wearing the light armor worn by the guards on the northern border.
Even though they had just fought against the demons together, some humans showed a wary look when they saw her.
King Chongming had no intention of communicating too much with these human beings, so he disappeared and flashed directly to the destination of this trip.
It was an extremely solid camp, and also the place where the highest commander of the human race in the Eastern Territory battlefield, Yuan Xi Zhenjun, was located.
Yuan Xi Zhenjun was not surprised to see the uninvited demon king.
He immediately looked up from behind the desk and greeted her in a casual tone.
"Your Majesty's presence truly brings honor to my humble abode."
King Chongming frowned. She had come to discuss serious matters and did not like seeing Master Yuanxi's nonchalant attitude.
But she still suppressed her dissatisfaction and said seriously:
"News has come from the west that Lingru has also gone to the Abyss. Now that the demons on the northern border have retreated, what plans does your sect have?"
Upon hearing this, Yuan Xi Zhenjun was delighted, but his expression remained calm. He pondered for a moment and said:
"Although the demons here have retreated, the pressure from the Abyss will be even greater. Our sect will naturally continue to send personnel to the Abyss for support."
King Chongming nodded and said, "I came here to discuss cooperation with your clan."
"After all, the demons are the common enemy of both humans and demons. Now that war is about to begin, we old guys in the East China Sea can no longer stay in peace."
Yuan Xi Zhenjun smiled and said, "Your Majesty is right, but my sect needs to consider it."
After all, the number of subordinates that the five demon kings have to send ashore is not a small number. The gathering of a large number of demons can easily lead to various accidents, and the Bishui Sect alone cannot make the decision on this matter.
King Chongming said, "I can give the human race some time to consider, but I hope you can give me a response as soon as possible."
"After all, time waits for no one. Your human race's Cangwu Secret Realm is about to open, so we need to take action as soon as possible."
Yuan Xi Zhenjun smiled and nodded: "Okay, Your Majesty, I will give you a reply as soon as possible."
King Chongming nodded and said, "Then I will wait for good news from your clan."
King Chongming turned and left. Master Yuanxi looked at her back and fell into deep thought.
He knew that King Chongming came to test his attitude.
If he rejected King Chongming's proposal, the five demon kings of the East China Sea might come ashore directly, and then there would probably be riots of varying sizes all over Dongzhou.
However, if he agreed to King Chongming's proposal, then he would need to consider the relationship between the human race and the demon race.
The most important thing right now is to discuss the process as quickly as possible and never allow the conflict between the human and demon races to escalate.
When Master Yuan Xi thought of this, he waved his sleeves to collect the things on the table, and disappeared in a flash.
While the battlefield in the east was temporarily calmed down, the fierce fighting in the abyss battlefield was in full swing.
The armies of the Immortal Sect and the Demon Clan faced each other in the center of the battlefield, with tense nerves and thundering heartbeats filling every guard's body.
In an instant, a thunderous shout broke the silence, and the two armies began a brutal fight.
The soldiers of the Immortal Sect rushed towards the enemy, holding various weapons.
Spears danced, swords swirled, blood splattered everywhere. On the battlefield, the clash of weapons and the roar of monsters mixed together, like a roar coming from the abyss of hell.
In the melee, an officer in armor rushed towards the enemy's defense line, waving a sword in his hand.
His eyes were firm, his face was stern, and every swing of his sword carried a deadly threat.
His figure shuttled across the battlefield as fast as a ghost, and those high-level monsters could not track him at all.
On the other side, a group of archers were aiming at the demon camp.
Everyone held longbows, their eyes focused, waiting for the best time to shoot.
When a large number of monsters approached, they instantly released a dense rain of arrows. The arrows cut through the sky with fierce momentum and accurately hit the vital points of various monsters.
The sounds of fighting on the battlefield became more and more intense, as if it was a struggle with no winner.
As night fell, the sounds of fighting on the battlefield gradually died down. Blood stained the ground red, and corpses piled up like mountains.
In this ruin, the surviving soldiers and the young disciples who were transferred to the rear began to quietly clean up the mess.
The two siblings of the Cui family are among them. Three months have passed, and their temperament has changed dramatically compared to last time.
They no longer had the impetuous and arrogant air that the young men from the aristocratic families had when they were in the Cui family. Instead, they became resolute and calm. Especially their eyes, which were sharp and bright, like eagles.
If Ning Jiasheng saw them now, he would probably suspect that they had changed their minds.
