Li Wuyi’s expression changed as he shouted, “Stop them!”
A dense mass of figures rose into the sky, Secret Techniques and artifacts shooting towards the bloody light.
However, how could they possibly stop it? The bloody light only twisted a few times before it managed to avoid all the attacks and break out of the encirclement, turning into a small red dot in a flash.
Among the Demon Race, Shadow Demons were the best at concealment, but in terms of escape techniques, if Blood Demon was second, no Demon Race would dare claim to be first. Blood Escape was unparalleled!
Li Wuyi’s face was ashen! More than twenty Demon Race cultivators had fled, and although it seemed like there weren’t many of them, all of them were Half-Saints. If they hid in the Star Boundary and committed crimes, they would definitely cause a bloodbath. But now, no one could stop them.
There were quite a number of Pseudo Emperors in the Star Boundary, but after so many days of battle, they had long since exhausted themselves. Not to mention whether or not they could catch up, even if they could, what would happen?
“I’ll go!” Yang Kai’s figure flickered as he prepared to move, but Li Wuyi quickly grabbed his arm and shook his head, “No need to chase.”
Yang Kai asked, “Are we just going to let them escape?” With the current situation, if we didn’t take advantage of this opportunity to kill them, there would be no end to their troubles.
Li Wuyi said, “What can you do if you chase after them alone?” Pointing towards the two parties fighting below, he said, “This is the most important thing right now.”
Yang Kai also knew what he said was reasonable, but seeing so many Demon Race Half-Saints flee, he couldn’t help feeling indignant.
Li Wuyi saw through his thoughts and advised, “It won’t be too late to deal with them after this battle is over. They’re all half-Saints of the Demon Race, it's another thing if they conceal themselves, but if they dare to show themselves, they’ll immediately expose themselves.”
Yang Kai nodded lightly and asked suspiciously, “How did they escape so decisively…” Although he had sealed the passage between the two worlds, the Demon Race still had the strength to fight. If they continued to fight like this, even if the Star Boundary could win, they would have to pay a huge price. However, the dozen or so Demon Race Half-Saints immediately fled the moment they saw that the situation wasn’t looking good, as if they had already discussed this beforehand, ignoring the ten million strong Demon Race army.
Without these Half-Saints, how could the Demon Race, which was already at a disadvantage, resist the Star Boundary’s army? It could be said that although the escape of the Demon Race’s Half-Saints had left a hidden danger in the Star Boundary, it had been a great help in this battle.
If he were to say that they were cutting off their own arm, they would have to pay a great price.
Moreover, what Li Wuyi said wasn’t completely unreasonable. The Demon Race was surrounded by Demonic Qi and their characteristics were obvious. If they were to escape this time, it would be fine, but if they dared to show themselves, they would definitely be besieged by Star Boundary masters, so it wasn’t a big deal.
Unable to figure out what the Demon Race was up to, Li Wuyi suddenly frowned, “Something’s wrong.”
Yang Kai was startled and followed his gaze, only to see that on the battlefield below, countless Demon Race auras soared into the sky, and countless Demon Race cultivators suddenly seemed to have gone crazy, attacking all living things around them.
Their target was not only the Star Boundary army, but also their companions.
This was the case for the lower-class Demon Race, Demon Commander, Demon Chief Commander, and even many Demon Kings. In just a moment, all of the Demon Race’s eyes had turned red and they no longer cared about their relatives, only about killing.
The already disadvantaged Demon Race army became even more unstable. Although the Demon Race’s Half Saints had retreated from the battlefield, the remaining Demon Race army was still a force that could not be ignored. But now, in their madness, the Demon Race was actually slaughtering themselves. Not to mention Li Wuyi and Yang Kai, even the soldiers who were fighting the Demon Race below were dumbfounded.
In just a few breaths of time, the Demon Race had suffered countless casualties.
Li Wuyi and Yang Kai glanced at each other, both seeing the shock and confusion in each other’s eyes, but now was not the time to ask. Li Wuyi immediately ordered his Jia Zi Army to change their flag.
Yang Kai’s figure also flashed as he withdrew his own sixth stem army.
“Sir, what’s going on?” Yao Si asked anxiously. He had also seen the changes around him and was completely confused.
“I don’t know, let’s retreat first!” Yang Kai looked around and found the weakest spot, leading his sixth stem army towards it.
As they rushed forward, each of them was covered in blood, their killing intent surging.
Not only was his sixth stem army retreating, but when they saw Li Wuyi’s flag, all of them began retreating from the battlefield.
On the entire battlefield, the 55 army transformed into a 55 Iron Armor Flood, crushing the Demon Race in front of them and slaughtering their way out.
One army after another gradually retreated from the battlefield while Li Wuyi’s Jia Zi Army remained behind.
Looking back, the sounds of battle on the battlefield had not stopped, but there was no longer a single human on the battlefield, all of them Demon Race.
At night, a cold wind blew, sending chills down everyone’s spines.
“What… what happened?” Xie Wuwei muttered.
God knows what was going on, even Yang Kai couldn’t give an answer. No one had expected such a situation. The Great Dragon Array had long since been dispersed, and Li Wuyi was also at a loss.
Victory had come so suddenly that no one was prepared for it.
It was precisely because of this sudden change that everyone felt uneasy.
With the current situation developing, the Demon Race on the battlefield would inevitably end up killing each other. After pondering for a moment, Yang Kai turned to look at Bai Zhuo and Bai Ya.
Bai Zhuo and Bai Ya were confused by his stare, “What’s wrong?”
“Are you alright?” Yang Kai asked.
A sudden change occurred on the Demon Race’s side. Yang Kai wanted to ask them what was going on, but the two Half-Saints shook their heads and even the Embodiment showed no reaction.
Pondering for a moment, Yang Kai raised his hand and two figures appeared in front of him.
Inside the Mysterious Small World, the Second Territory had been stripped off and transformed into a star, which Yang Kai had left behind in the Lower Planes Star Field. In the Third Territory, there were many Demon Race survivors, including Bo Ya, Huo Lun, and Mo Sheng. Bo Ya had always been by his side, while Huo Lun had been forcibly taken into the Mysterious Small World by him. As for Mo Sheng, Yang Kai knew his background very well, but he felt that there was something wrong with him, so when he released the Demon Race from the Mysterious Small World, he had deliberately left him behind and ordered Bo Ya to monitor his movements.
Summoning the two Demon Kings, Bo Ya and Huo Lun, Yang Kai also wanted to confirm his guess.
When the two of them appeared, they were at a loss for a moment before quickly bowing, but before Yang Kai could ask anything, Bo Ya suddenly let out a muffled groan as a look of pain appeared on her face. Huo Lun, on the other hand, was in an even worse state, his eyes turning red as he sent out a palm strike towards Bo Ya.
Yang Kai was already prepared, so how could he allow him to injure Bo Ya? With a single hand, he grabbed Huo Lun and sealed his cultivation.
After being captured by Yang Kai, Huo Lun seemed to have no idea what was going on. His face was still as fierce as ever, as if he would eat Yang Kai’s flesh.
Everyone around him was shocked, while Bai Zhuo and Bai Ya stared at Huo Lun solemnly.
“Sir… Sir!” Bo Ya bit her red lips, her lips bleeding as she struggled to resist something. Both she and Huo Lun were Mid-Rank Demon Kings, but Huo Lun’s strength was lower than hers and he went mad faster than her. Although Bo Ya was still able to resist, it seemed she wouldn’t be able to last much longer, her eyes turning red.
Seeing this, Yang Kai understood and sent out his Divine Sense to collect Bo Ya and Huo Lun into the Mysterious Small World.
Not long after entering the Mysterious Small World, the redness in Bo Ya’s eyes gradually receded and she slowly recovered, but her clothes were drenched in sweat, revealing her exquisite curves as she gasped for breath, her expression exhausted, as if she had just experienced a great battle.
Huo Lun was also the same, his originally red eyes gradually returning to normal as he glanced at Bo Ya who was kneeling on the ground, panting, a blank look on his face, “What happened?”
He couldn’t remember what had just happened.
Bo Ya ignored him because at this moment, Yang Kai’s voice had already resounded in her mind, asking about what had just happened. After thinking about it carefully, Bo Ya weakly said, “I thought I heard a voice in my mind, but after that, I couldn’t control myself. In a moment, I’m afraid…” She was afraid that she would become like Huo Lun, unable to recognize her family and losing her consciousness. Just thinking about it made Bo Ya feel a bit cold. The feeling of being unable to control herself was too terrifying, as if she had become a puppet.
“What kind of voice?” Yang Kai asked.
Bo Ya shook her head.
After asking a few more questions, Yang Kai could only give up.
Outside the Mysterious Small World, Yang Kai told the two Demon Race Half-Saints about his discovery, causing Bai Zhuo and Bai Ya’s expressions to change.
Bai Zhuo asked, “So this unforeseen event was caused by someone?”
Bo Ya heard a voice from the depths of her heart, and then her temperament changed greatly. If this wasn’t caused by someone, what was it? Just what kind of person could possess such a shocking Divine Ability that could affect so many Demon Race cultivators?
The reason he and Bai Ya were not affected was probably because of their powerful strength. Under Half-Saint, even many Demon Kings were unable to resist the power of that voice.
As such, as soon as Bo Ya and Huo Lun were released from the Mysterious Small World by Yang Kai, they were affected.
“Can the Demon Saints do such a thing?” Yang Kai turned to them and asked.
Bai Zhuo and Bai Ya looked at each other in silence for a moment before Bai Zhuo said, “The Saint Venerable have eyes that can see through the sky, and their cultivation is not something we can speculate about.” Saying this was the same as not saying anything. Obviously, they couldn’t be certain which Demon Saint had caused this, but if they thought about it carefully, it was quite impossible. The ten Demon Saints had already fled after appearing, so if they had really left behind some kind of trump card, the Great Emperors wouldn’t have failed to notice.
Although he didn’t know what kind of scheme the Demon Race was plotting, at the very least he had figured out how this unforeseen event had occurred. Just as Yang Kai was about to inform Li Wuyi of this news, his expression suddenly changed and he shouted, “Not good!”
“Why is Sir so flustered?” Yao Si asked.
“Where is Rumeng’s army stationed?” Yang Kai turned to ask Su Yan.
Hearing this, everyone’s expressions changed drastically.
In this Western Region, not only were there Demon Race cultivators who had crossed over from the Demon Territory, and the Star Boundary 55 armies, there is another army of Yu Rumeng, Bei Limo, and Chang Tian!
