Chapter 2844 - 2848: The Fall of Demon Dragon City: Standoff Before the Demon Palace

A moment later, Feng Hao swayed and stood up again.

Demon Corpse!

Previously, Ling Xiao had used it twice, but because it made people so disdainful, he was reluctant to use it easily.

But this time, the Demon Dragon Sect was trapped and needed more helpers.

Not only did he collect Feng Hao’s corpse, but Ling Xiao also collected the bodies of Xue Zhan, Xue Tu, the three deputy leaders of the Dark Dragon Group, and Shan Tian Zhang’s body, putting them in a separate Storage Ring, ready for use.

The body of the Dark Dragon Group Leader was unusable since it was reduced to nothing but dust.

Witnessing this bizarre scene, Mu Qing and Chen Luan felt a sense of fear.

Not to mention the warriors of the Chen Dynasty.

"I beg you, I’ll tell you everything, just don’t turn me into that, disgracing my body even after death."

The Skeleton General was even more frightened.

"Hiss..."

Blood splattered as the Skeleton General’s throat was directly pierced.

Every soldier of the Chen Dynasty trembled with fear in their hearts.

Dead!

The majestic Skeleton General, dead before the battle even began.

He hadn’t even defeated anyone yet, and he’d already lost his own life.

One strike!

Just a single strike!

Collecting the Skeleton General’s body, Ling Xiao glanced coldly at the Chen Dynasty soldiers and said, "You are not qualified to negotiate with me. Speak, or I will turn you all into Demon Corpses!"

The soldiers of the Chen Dynasty had long since lost the courage to resist, especially after seeing Feng Hao transformed into a Demon Envoy, they were trembling with fear.

"You’re the deputy general, right? You answer my questions!"

Ling Xiao’s longsword pointed at one of them.

Without a moment’s hesitation, the person hurriedly said, "All seven corps of the Thunder Corps have been dispatched.

The seven newly appointed generals also ventured forth simultaneously.

Their strength is all above the late stage of the Twelfth-Level Hell in the First Cycle of Yin-Yang Realm.

The strongest, naturally, are the newly appointed First General and Second General.

Moreover, the Twelfth Prince and Eleventh Prince, who were training outside, have also returned to oversee the army.

The sects they belong to are very powerful, reportedly capable of easily destroying a small country like the Chen Dynasty.

These two princes only pursue Martial Arts and don’t care about the throne, so they’ve returned this time to help the Fourteenth Prince, Chen Cangxiong.

And their cultivation is no less than Chen Cangxiong’s, though they are a few years older.

"I didn’t expect the Thunder Emperor’s sons to be so capable indeed. I thought only the Fourteenth Prince would be hard to deal with, but it seems that the Twelfth and Eleventh are not easy to handle either."

Ling Xiao frowned slightly.

The great sects outside that could easily wipe out the great sects of the Chen Dynasty, he had indeed never heard of them.

But once he steps out of the Chen Dynasty, he might come to know about them.

"Feng Hao, kill them!"

Ling Xiao waved his hand, refraining from acting himself, and instead assigned the task to the Demon Corpse, Feng Hao.

Leaving their lives behind?

Don’t be ridiculous.

Keeping them alive would only mean encountering them again soon in Demon Dragon City. On the battlefield, who dares show a hint of mercy?

Those who are merciful on the battlefield, their graves must have tall grass by now.

These people were merely insignificant characters. With Feng Hao’s strength, exterminating them was a breeze.

It didn’t take long for Feng Hao to resolve all the soldiers of the Chen Dynasty.

These individuals had followed the Skeleton General to attack Demon Dragon City and kill the disciples of the Demon Dragon Sect, and Ling Xiao, being the young sect master of the Demon Dragon Sect, found nothing wrong with slaughtering them all.

"How ironic, when Feng Hao was alive, he was a traitor; after death, he became obedient."

Mu Qing lamented.

"Let’s not talk about it. Let’s go back to Demon Dragon City with me,"

Ling Xiao threw the Demon Dragon Sword out, then jumped onto the broad blade, letting Chen Luan and Mu Qing also sit on it.

"Fly!"

At his command, the Demon Dragon Sword rushed towards Demon Dragon City.

...

Demon Dragon City had indeed fallen.

The place was ablaze, and slaughter was everywhere.

After the soldiers of the Chen Dynasty entered Demon Dragon City, they didn’t care whether the residents were from the Demon Dragon Sect or not, adhering to one point - "Kill them all."

Sadly, many civilians who didn’t trust Chen Buyi yet believed the Chen Dynasty Army could protect them all met their tragic end under the butcher’s knife of the Chen Dynasty soldiers.

Yet, their pitifulness makes them detestable.

Chen Buyi had provided them with protection for many years, but when the city was breached, they chose to believe in the Chen Dynasty.

Their deaths could be seen as deserved.

There were also Martial Artists visiting Demon Dragon City who had no grievances with either the Demon Dragon Sect or the Chen Royal Family.

Yet they were also treated as enemies.

The reason provided by the Supreme Commander of the Thunder Corps, General Feng Huo, was the fear of Monster disciples from the Demon Dragon Sect infiltrating among them.

So even if it meant wrongful killing, they wouldn’t let anyone off.

Outside the Demon Palace, it was equally bustling. Six out of the seven great generals of the Thunder Corps were present.

The Twelfth Prince and Eleventh Prince were also there.

Overlord Blade Gui Li was present too, finally revealing his sinister teeth and choosing to betray the Demon Dragon Sect.

Behind them was a massive army.

In front of them were Chen Buyi, Xiao Jin, and Xiao Mu Yu.

All those with insufficient strength temporarily hid within the Demon Palace.

Inside the Demon Palace, many eyes were watching the outside.

"It’s terrifying; through this nationwide conscription and external hiring, the Chen Dynasty’s strength greatly increased.

It’s said that Martial Artists with Hell Cultivation in the Yin-Yang Realm Twelfth Layer alone exceed a hundred.

Our Demon Dragon Sect truly can’t compete."

The hearts of these people were filled with some terror.

"Don’t be afraid, with the Sect Master here, there’s nothing to worry about!"

All they could hope for was that Chen Buyi, Xiao Mu Yu, and Xiao Jin wouldn’t fail; otherwise, the Demon Palace would instantly turn into ruins, and they would have no one to resist the terrifying onslaught.

"Surrender, Sect Master!

The Thunder Emperor has ordered, as long as you are willing to surrender, you still remain a noble of the Chen Dynasty!

You can still enjoy wealth and honor!

Your resistance is meaningless. I know how strong you are, but with all of us combined, you are definitely not our match,"

Overlord Blade Gui Li said coldly.

Standing there, Chen Buyi, in his black robe, exuded an eerie Demonic Qi.

Perhaps only in this moment did he truly resemble a Demon Sect Leader, filled with an unrivaled aura.

Even as Demon Dragon City was breached, even when pushed into the Demon Palace.

He still showed not the slightest bit of panic.

With his cold eyes and formidable Demonic Qi, he continued to instill dread.

Overlord Blade Gui Li’s words were merely because Chen Buyi was formidable, so he wished to avoid a direct confrontation.

Because even if they won such a battle, the cost would be extremely heavy, which was too unprofitable for them.

"Save your bullshit, let’s get down to it. If I, Chen Buyi, frown even once, I am no longer the Sect Master of the Demon Dragon Sect!"

Chen Buyi mocked as he looked at Overlord Blade Gui Li: "Once my disciple retrieves the Demon Dragon Sword, all of you will die!"

"Heh, Sect Master, you place too much hope in that kid, don’t you?

To be honest, everyone from the Dark Dragon Group has laid an ambush on his way.

Even if they can’t kill him, Cloud Vice Dean, Clan Leader Shan Tian Zhang, the Dark Dragon Group Leader, and experts like Xue Zhan are on Demon Dragon Mountain.

Do you really think he can return alive?"

Overlord Blade Gui Li’s face was icy and sarcastic.
