The intense battlefield suddenly fell silent as everyone turned to look in their direction.
Many demon soldiers were puzzled. What was going on? Just a moment ago, the Black-haired Bat Demon was laughing like a big shot, how did it turn into this in the next second?
The key question is what exactly that dazzling thing was. It couldn't have been a meteorite that fell from the sky and killed it, could it? That would be incredibly unlucky.
At this moment, the black-haired bat demon's huge fleshy wings suddenly flapped a few times, as if it was trying to get up.
Unfortunately, its head was pinned to the ground by a sword, and it failed to succeed despite several attempts.
Xie Daoyun and the others' expressions changed. If it hadn't died after all that, just how strong was this bat monster's vitality? What if it really did break free...?
At that moment, a figure descended from the sky, its toes landing precisely on the tip of the sword. Like the last straw that broke the camel's back, the black-haired bat demon fell silent.
"Brother Zu!"
Upon seeing the person in front of them, Xie Daoyun and Murong Qinghe exclaimed in unison, their faces filled with joy.
Xie Xiufu breathed a sigh of relief after escaping danger. Seeing Zu An's appearance and the two girls' hearts in their eyes, he muttered to himself, "Damn, he's so cool. He really pulled off that cool act."
Zu An smiled and nodded to the others. Ever since he guessed the Second Prince's conspiracy, he hadn't wasted any time and headed straight south.
You have to understand that the human race only sent troops to help the demon race because of him. If the entire human race is wiped out by the demon race, then the two races will truly be locked in a life-or-death struggle.
When the two races fight to the death, leaving corpses strewn across the battlefield, it will be a perfect opportunity for the lurking demons to take advantage of the situation.
The more killing and bloodshed there is, the more likely it is to breed demons.
So he flew this way almost without sleep, at top speed.
The Little Demon Queen and Yu Yanluo understood the seriousness of the matter. Although they were reluctant to part with him, they were worried about affecting him, so they did not travel with him.
On the contrary, Jing Teng clung to him like a leech, and on the way, Hei Jing Teng even pestered Zu An several times to pay the rest of the "reward".
Although the thought of the sisters' unusual relationship stirred Zu'an's heart, he knew that important matters were more important. After much persuasion, he finally convinced Hei Jingteng to grant him a few more days to return to the jade coffin and sleep, so that he could focus on his journey.
He happened to arrive nearby and sensed the battle taking place, saving Xie Xiu at the last minute.
"Regent...Regent!" Some of the demon soldiers on the other side recognized Zu An, and a commotion immediately broke out.
At this moment, the leading general in black armor shouted, "What are you afraid of? No matter how powerful he is, he's still just one person. He's now in our ranks, so why should we be afraid of him!"
Zuan looked up and saw that the area within a radius of several thousand meters was faintly shrouded by a magic array, with a military flag faintly visible in the very center.
This is a classic military formation. Within its coverage area, not only can all soldiers unite as one, attacking and defending together, but it can also greatly increase the attack, defense, speed, and other attributes of each soldier on one's side, while weakening the enemy in various ways.
Therefore, cultivators in the world are quite wary of armies, especially once they are caught in a military formation, unless you are strong enough, you will have a slim chance of survival.
"So it's the Second Prince's army." Zu An sneered as he saw the insignia on the military flag.
Seeing that many of his soldiers were still somewhat afraid, the black-armored general leading the opposing side roared, "Have you forgotten who forced us to fight to the death in the sealed land, only to exhaust our last drop of blood!"
Upon hearing this, the soldiers' eyes immediately reddened. As the Second Prince's confidants, they were originally destined to rise through the ranks, marry beautiful wives, and reach the pinnacle of life. However, due to the sudden emergence of Zu An, who forcefully supported the young prince's ascension to the throne, they were turned into rebels overnight!
Moreover, being sent into the sealed land to fight against the extraterrestrial demons, they had no hope of returning. Clearly, the royal court wanted to wear them down to their last man.
“Kill him, and we can return to the royal court.”
"We don't want to be rebels anymore!"
A group of men, their eyes reddening, raised their shields and extended their spears, gradually tightening the encirclement. They intended to use their military advantage to force the enemy to their deaths within their ranks.
Xie Xiu, Xie Daoyun, and Murong Qinghe hurriedly helped the Qin brothers up and moved towards Zu'an. Faced with such murderous intent from all sides, many of their usual skills were useless.
Xie Daoyun took out a talisman and was about to forcefully activate it, but Zu An stopped her hand: "Your cultivation is not high enough right now. Forcibly activating Sun En's talismans will cause irreversible damage to your spiritual power. Leave this to me."
Hearing the other person's gentle voice, and especially feeling the warmth of their large hand, Xie Daoyun's cheeks flushed: "Mmm."
Seeing her sister's shy expression, Xie Xiu thought to herself, "Oh no, my sister's got her all hooked. I feel like I've gotten the short end of the stick."
Why doesn't this guy from Zaun have any older or younger sisters?
I'm so annoyed!
Anger from Xie Xiu +5 +5 +5...
Seeing the approaching number of soldiers, Zu An said in a deep voice, "Considering that you have been misled by the Second Prince, if you surrender and defect now, I can give you a chance."
"Don't listen to his sweet talk!" This time it wasn't the black-armored general who spoke, but many soldiers who shouted indignantly.
Seeing the pairs of hateful eyes and the ever-increasing anger in the background, Zaun sighed, and countless Gatling gun barrel phantoms floated around him.
"What is that?" The soldiers were puzzled, but they found out the next second when every Gatling gun barrel spat out blue flames.
