A fierce battle was about to break out in the Demon City, but Wang Yao had run out of Spirit Recovery Pills and his spiritual power was on the verge of exhaustion. How could he not be extremely worried?
"Damn it, why are you all running off to Commander Lang's side? Why aren't you two coming over here?" Wang Yao asked irritably.
"Don't you have Wei Zheng and his men over there? It was Wei Zheng who arranged for us to come here!" Mo Guangmu was a little confused when he heard Wang Yao's complaint.
"Wei Zheng?" Upon hearing this, Wang Yao scratched his head. He had never been an official and was unaware of this. Only after hearing what Mo Guangmu said did he suddenly understand. Yes, although Wei Zheng was assigned to clean up the mess for the army, it didn't mean he couldn't send him some Rejuvenation Pills.
Damn it, cleaning up after the army is work, but isn't delivering supplies to the commander-in-chief also work? That doesn't make sense! As soon as Wang Yao thought of this, he quickly hung up the phone with Mo Guangmu and dialed Wei Zheng's number. Just as he was about to make the call, he suddenly heard a heart-wrenching scream behind him.
"Father, where are you? Father? Father!"
Wang Yao remembered that voice very clearly; who else could it be but Lü Bu?
"You... why the hell aren't you staying at Bird Return Ridge? What are you doing here?" Wang Yao asked, puzzled, as Lu Bu's tall figure rushed towards him in a few strides through the army.
"My divine lord has informed me that thanks to Father's rapid advance with his surprise attack, the situation in the divine realm has now largely stabilized. In order to ensure that Father has sufficient strength to continue advancing, the divine lord has specially ordered me to lead all the troops stationed at Bird Return Ridge to support Father."
Lu Bu explained to Wang Yao with a face full of excitement.
"What the hell, all the troops stationed here? There are only two guys, and that sounds so... off..."
Upon hearing Lü Bu's words, Wang Yao was furious. Wasn't Lü Bu just a commander without any troops? The two gods still had to ask him to do a favor for the Unyielding God. Anyone would be angry about this.
But he soon realized that the actual situation was not as he thought. When he left Bird Return Ridge, he left behind 50,000 Netherworld Ghosts. Later, when Gale Ghost King left, a large number of Netherworld reinforcements arrived, and he also did not take those 50,000 Netherworld soldiers with him.
Could it be that this group of underworld soldiers also came with Lü Bu? He looked up and glanced behind Lü Bu, and sure enough, he saw a ghostly aura and a chilling wind.
"Did all the ghosts guarding Bird Return Ridge come with you?" Wang Yao asked, glancing sideways.
“Indeed, Father,” Lü Bu replied, bowing.
"It's good that you've come. Now that the balance of power has shifted between the realms of gods and demons, you shouldn't have those little schemes of yours anymore, right?" Although Wang Yao was certain that Lu Bu would no longer have any thoughts of defecting to the enemy under the current circumstances, he still couldn't help but stare at him with a question.
"Father, you are wise. I made up my mind the moment you mentioned Diao Chan. I am irreconcilably opposed to the demons and will never again entertain such a hesitant and ungrateful thought!" Lu Bu hurriedly pledged his loyalty to Wang Yao.
"I'm relieved to hear that." Wang Yao nodded and pointed south. "The vanguard of the Sea-Filling God's clan is currently facing resistance at the gates of the Decapitation Demon City. You should quickly lead the Netherworld Ghosts there to lend her a hand."
"Father, I haven't seen you for a long time and I really miss you. I have many things I want to say to you. I wonder... I wonder if I could accompany you on this journey?" Lu Bu asked Wang Yao with a troubled expression.
"With a major battle imminent, how can you dawdle like this?" Wang Yao glared at Lü Bu.
"I'm giving you a chance to make a name for yourself. If you help the God of Reclaiming the Sea conquer the Decapitation Demon City, you'll definitely earn more points with Miss Diao Chan. In all the Six Realms, what beauty doesn't love a hero?"
"Yes, yes... Father is right. I will go to the Demon City to behead him immediately." Upon hearing this, Lü Bu suddenly understood. He bowed deeply to Wang Yao and then turned to find the Underworld Ghost Commander with his panting divine subordinate.
Wang Yao blinked as he watched the backs of Lu Bu and his companion. It seemed that Lu Bu's war god subordinate had actually advanced to the level of a fierce god. It appeared that following Lu Bu alone, with ample resources, still had many advantages.
After seeing off Lü Bu and the Netherworld Ghost reinforcements sent by Bird Return Ridge, Wang Yao instructed Zhang Liang to assemble the troops. Everyone was to rest for one night before heading to the Decapitation Demon City. As for the inferior demons in Zongguan City, they could only let them go. If the army really suffered a defeat at the Decapitation Demon City, how to escape would be another matter.
After all, Commander Lang and his men had already attacked the Decapitation Demon City from the east. With Mo Guangmu and Diao Chan's group clearing the rear, it should be safer there. Wei Zheng, on the other hand, had to be recalled. With a major battle imminent, every bit of strength had to be concentrated.
After making arrangements for Zhang Liang, Wang Yao picked up the phone again and dialed Wei Zheng, instructing him to gather his subordinate immortals and quickly move closer to him. At the same time, he ordered Wei Zheng to collect as many Rejuvenation Pills as possible from the rear and from the Immortal Clan to ensure that the immortals had sufficient combat power during the great battle.
Wei Zheng received Wang Yao's call and rushed over before the demon army's rear guard could set off. Wang Yao's reserves of Rejuvenation Pills were finally replenished, and with his resources more abundant, Wang Yao's thoughts began to change.
He ordered Wei Zheng to lead the immortals to stay in Zongguan City to thoroughly eliminate the inferior demons and keep the army's rear route clear, while he himself led the demon army's rear guard toward the Decapitation Demon City.
The road from Zongguan City to the Execution Demon City was wide and flat, and must have been carefully repaired and maintained by the demons. It was almost indistinguishable from a six-lane highway in the human world, except that it lacked asphalt.
