Within a week, almost all the creatures in the entire star field had been selected and taken away by the various lords! It wasn't that the lords didn't want to take the remaining creatures, but rather that their territories were too small to carry them all. They could only wait for Ye Chen and the others from the Second Dark Source to return before they could try to take away a small batch. But it was impossible to take them all away.
Terella stood before these creatures. He had thought a lot these past few days and had rejected many invitations from lords. As the new ruler of the entire Demonflame Plane, he was destined to receive many offers, both in terms of talent and temperament. However, he did not accept anyone's offer and instead came to these creatures who had been "left over" with his personal guards.
"Gentlemen! I am Terella, son of Giles, the sun god!" Terella proclaimed to the crowd. "Some of you may know me, or some may not have heard of me, but that does not matter!"
"I am here today to tell you all that the Demon Flame Plane has been defeated. I failed to uphold my father's will and lead the entire Demon Flame Plane to repel the darkness. Here I want to apologize to you all, and also to the warriors and predecessors who sacrificed their lives in the war!"
"As everyone knows, since Father's passing, we have gained a new group of allies. They are the lords from the Blue Star Plane. They have devoted a great deal of effort, time, and even their lives to the safety of the Demon Flame Plane. Regardless of the outcome, they are all benefactors of our Demon Flame Plane, saving countless lives in our Demon Flame Plane! They have allowed us to survive for so many years, enabling countless ordinary beings to live out their full lives."
“Therefore, we should be grateful to them! On behalf of the countless beings of the Demonfire Plane, Terella once again expresses her gratitude for your arrival and assistance!” Terella said, bowing deeply in the direction of the lords before turning back to the beings of the Demonfire Plane.
"War is cruel, and those who fail should bear the consequences!" Terella's expression changed, and she suddenly became solemn. "The lords of the Blue Star plane cannot take all our lives with them. Their territories are also limited in size, so some people will inevitably need to stay behind!"
"But don't worry, everyone. I, Terella, will not leave with the lords of Blue Star. I am the Son of the Sun of the Demonflame Plane, the new Sun God. I will stand with you all and let the Demonflame Plane shine with the last ray of light!"
Hearing Terella's words, everyone was shocked. Many lords were hoping to bring this demigod under their command, but they did not expect that he would choose to stay and succumb to this plane that was about to fall.
The creatures of the Demon Flame Plane who were left behind were shocked. Many demigods even tried to stop Terella from leaving with the lords to rebuild the light in a new world, but she refused.
After trying to persuade them for a while without success, the crowd could only disperse helplessly. Some people were moved and wanted to stay, which greatly increased Terella's team, which now included several hundred demigods, making them a considerable force.
“My lord! Rather than waiting to die here, why not take us to see those dark creatures and witness the final battlefield, so that we can die in peace?” an ordinary being suggested to Terella.
At this point, there was no longer any distinction between gods and believers. They sat together, talking and chatting, waiting for night to fall.
"That's a good idea! We're going to die anyway! Why don't we charge into the darkness and fight it out? That would be a way to die on the battlefield, wouldn't it?" This suggestion immediately received a lot of approval, and everyone spoke up, wanting to go and see the source of the darkness.
At first, some demigods cursed them for being reckless and wanting to die sooner than they thought, but as more and more people shouted this, Terella had to start to think.
“Indeed, rather than waiting to die here, it’s better to fight a spectacular battle. Send out the notice, give half a day to prepare. Anyone who wants to go to the center of the war to fight to the death can recite my name, and I will lead you all to your deaths!” Terella suddenly stood up, and his vast divine power permeated the entire star field. Everyone heard his voice.
Half a day later, Ye Chen and the others, who were already preparing to evacuate, suddenly discovered that a large number of creatures from the Demon Flame Plane were arriving. These creatures were not strong, and many could not even be considered true warriors. They were simply exposed to the dark energy and might be directly overwhelmed and devoured.
But these people showed no fear whatsoever, fearlessly attacking the dark creatures, determined to bite off a piece of their flesh even if it meant taking a bite.
Among them, a large number of creatures were actually resisting the erosion of dark energy by relying on their own willpower. Many times, Ye Chen thought that they had also been corrupted by the darkness, but they miraculously withstood it and pounced on another dark creature.
Upon receiving messages from other lords, Ye Chen learned that Terella had led the remaining beings of the Demon Flame Plane to fight against the dark creatures. Hearing about Terella's exploits in the evacuation of the star field, Ye Chen couldn't help but sigh.
This is the war between planes! Victory means survival, defeat means annihilation! There is no room for mercy.
"Everyone, I am Terella. You have all worked so hard over the years. I have no way to repay your kindness. Now that the Demon Flame has been defeated, let us take on this final rearguard action! It is our small contribution to you all!" Terella said to Ye Chen and the others, and then rushed towards the source of darkness along with many other creatures.
Seeing this, Ye Chen and the others looked at each other in bewilderment. Finally, under the guidance of Hua Xiyu and the two True Gods, the lords began to evacuate in an orderly manner.
Ye Chen glanced at Terella, who was radiating light in the darkness, and felt a lump in his throat. He then called Ye Jun over, saying, "The evacuation will take a while. Go and help them with Zhulong. At least you can hold out in the darkness a little longer!"
This is all he can do right now! In the end, he still couldn't completely save the Demon Flame Plane from darkness...
There are many lords in the Blue Star plane, and it is not something that can be done in a short time. However, it will take a lot of time to bring their families back to their territory.
"Boom!" Not long after Ye Jun and Zhulong went out, a violent roar suddenly came from the source of darkness, and a terrifying aura spread out, causing the entire starry sky to tremble.
Terella, the red dragon, the orc, and even Ye Chen and Hua Xiyu all changed their expressions drastically. A huge beast claw was struggling to reach out from the spatial rift, and the world-destroying aura made Ye Chen recall the scene in the rift world. His eyes were filled with horror.
"We can't hold out any longer! The Dark God is trying to force his way out!"
