Seeing the two flee in disarray, Liu Zhaodi immediately chased after them. If they weren't embarrassed, why should she be? She, Liu Zhaodi, wasn't the kind of woman who was easily embarrassed.
...
"What happened? So many people are dead?"
As soon as Jiang Yuan arrived at the camp, he saw mountains of corpses and seas of blood. Without a doubt, these corpses belonged to ordinary people from the original location of the camp.
The southern part of the city is only so big, and it is already overloaded to accommodate ten million people. Therefore, some people simply cannot escape to a safe location and must continue to live in dangerous areas.
This gave the demons a perfect opportunity to strike. Once they seized the chance, a large number of civilians in the southern city would be killed or injured, giving the southern city forces no chance to react.
“Apostle, it’s like this, three Void Spirit Realm Ninth Stage Demon Spirits have appeared on the other side. Their methods are so powerful that they can instantly kill humans of the same level. We are no match for them!” Zhu Penghai stepped forward to explain. He had reached the Void Spirit Realm Ninth Stage due to the blessing of the Demon God’s blood. Although he was a Demon Embryo, his strength was still not to be underestimated.
Moreover, it wasn't just Zhu Penghai. Due to the proliferation of Demonic Bloodstone and the continuous emergence of spirit beasts that could be killed to condense the power of living beings, the amount of Demonic Bloodstone had increased dramatically. This led to almost everyone in the South City at the fifth level of the Void Spirit Realm using Demonic Bloodstone.
This is an inevitable trend, and even Jiang Yuan can only let it develop.
"A demon spirit race member at the ninth level of the Void Spirit Realm!"
Jiang Yuan fell into deep thought. He didn't have much experience in killing demonic spirits, but he had an idea.
The Demon God's Blood is something released by the Demon Lord, and the Demon Spirits are the Demon Lord's subordinates. So, if these Demon Spirits use the Demon God's Blood to enhance their strength, are there no side effects?
If that's really the case, then it's not hard to guess why the camp could deal with spirit beasts at the ninth level of the Void Spirit Realm, but couldn't defeat the demon spirit race at the ninth level of the Void Spirit Realm, because the combat power formed by the demon fetus is much weaker than the actual combat power.
"Young friend, you've arrived!" Li Tiegen didn't maintain that awe towards Jiang Yuan; he still regarded him as a close friend despite their age difference, just like before.
"Uncle Li, it's been a long time!" Jiang Yuan responded with a slight smile.
"I never expected that the two most talented people on the entire battlefield would appear in our South City, and they're even a married couple. It really proves the old saying that a powerful dragon doesn't play with a shallow shrimp!" Li Tiegen gave Ning Yanlan a thumbs up.
Since Ning Yanlan changed her personality, she has been cold to everyone, so Li Tiegen's words only received a very informal look in response from her.
"Uncle Li, leave this Demon Spirit Legion to us! Your people should help defend against the ordinary beast tides and then help the ordinary people!" Jiang Yuan commanded.
The initial boost to combat power from devouring is considerable. For example, he currently possesses twenty-five divine runes and has reached the fourth stage of the Void Spirit Realm. Little Fatty and Leng Yue are in similar situations, both experiencing significant increases in strength.
As for Ning Yanlan, to be honest, Jiang Yuan wasn't very confident. Although he sometimes bullied her ruthlessly and she would just accept it without any resistance, he still couldn't quite gauge her strength.
Just like last time outside the South Gate, Ning Yanlan single-handedly froze a battlefield of more than ten square kilometers and countless spirit beasts. That kind of strength was simply beyond the control of the Void Spirit Realm, so Jiang Yuan suspected that Ning Yanlan was hiding her strength.
"You're just two people, no, three people?" Li Tiegen had only seen Jiang Yuan and Ning Yanlan at first, but then he noticed Liu Zhaodi behind Jiang Yuan, whom he had overlooked.
“That’s enough!” Jiang Yuan said confidently.
"Then be careful, the enemy's demon spirit army has quite a few people!" Li Tiegen solemnly warned.
"Zhao Di, stay with me and don't wander off!"
Jiang Yuan was afraid that something might happen to Liu Zhaodi, so he protected her at all times. As for Ning Yanlan, she was able to reach the Spirit Realm with 9,999 points of spiritual energy. Her potential was not much weaker than Jiang Yuan's. In addition, with her mysterious identity, she didn't need his protection at all.
Moreover, Jiang Yuan also needed to find out Ning Yanlan's true strength and how much she was hiding.
"Jiang Yuan, what about Sister Yanlan?" Liu Zhaodi looked at Ning Yanlan with concern.
"Don't worry, she won't die even if I die! She won't be willing to die until she sees me become a battle spirit!" Jiang Yuan said sarcastically.
"But……"
"No buts, our current target is this demonic legion, not to waste time on an emotionless puppet!" Jiang Yuan turned Liu Zhaodi's head to the side, preventing her from looking at Ning Yanlan.
Ning Yanlan's eyes trembled slightly, then slowly returned to their coldness, and she simply said, "You need to activate the Battle Soul Imprint to kill them. The power of the Demon Spirit is a great tonic for the source of the battlefield."
"To die beneath the peony blossoms is to die a romantic death. You performed so well just now, I can grant you this small request!"
Jiang Yuan spoke blatantly as he walked toward the Demon Spirit Legion.
