Chapter 1777

"Holy crap, one died! Quick, quick, quick, go up and save them!"

"Right, right, right, go up and save them."

Huh???

As they spoke, Until Hong Zun and his group charged toward the battlefield without the slightest hesitation, leaving Ye Changqing, Fairy Baihua, and Jue Ying behind, completely bewildered.

"Is there really a need for this?"

"Husband, you don't know yet, do you?"

Hearing this, Fairy Baihua covered her mouth and chuckled, while Ye Changqing shook his head in suspicion.

"The ingredients stored in the Sacred Land are already running low. Why else would Senior Brother and the others be in such a rush?"

The last time they had procured ingredients was before the War of Extermination. After that war broke out, the Dao One Sacred Land naturally had no time to concern itself with such matters.

But not concerning themselves with it didn't mean the ingredients weren't being consumed. Whether it was the three daily meals, the consumption during wartime, or dry rations, it had never stopped.

As the saying goes, a stagnant pool cannot withstand the constant scooping; with only outflow and no inflow, that certainly wouldn't do.

Watching the ingredient reserves dwindle day by day, and with the Demon race now fighting a massive war against the Undead race, the amount of ingredients lost every day was an astronomical figure. How could Until Hong Zun and the others not be anxious?

If the ingredients were to run out, what would they eat in the future?

At present, the three races were only engaging at the level of Great Emperor ancestors, so the people below naturally didn't know what the ancestors had said.

As soon as the two sides met, they naturally began a fierce battle without a word.

However, this time, not long after they had started fighting, a roar was heard.

"Stop right there!"

Huh???

Who the hell was courting death? Hearing this voice, both the Demon race and the Undead race looked toward the source.

But upon seeing them, both races were dumbfounded; a group of humans was seen charging over aggressively.

When the Demon race saw the humans, they immediately gnashed their teeth, while the Undead race couldn't help but feel their hearts sink—why the hell were the humans here?

Just as both sides were stunned, Until Hong Zun had already led his people directly into the battlefield.

And then... then, without hesitation, he shielded the Demon race behind him.

"All of you, stop!"

Huh???

At this, the Demon race and the Undead race were even more confused. The Undead race was full of doubt—what were the humans doing? Judging by this posture, it seemed they wanted to protect these Demons?

The Demon race was even more bewildered—the humans wanted to protect them? How was that possible? They had to be joking.

Both races couldn't understand it at all, but Until Hong Zun, looking at the Demon that had just been killed, was filled with regret in his eyes.

Look, just look, they had arrived just a moment too late, and an ingredient had been wasted for nothing.

If they let things continue like this, they would really be left drinking the northwest wind in the future.

The more he thought about it, the more furious Until Hong Zun became, and his gaze toward the Undead race turned much colder.

It was these dog-like things that dared to kill the ingredients of his Dao One Sacred Land; it was simply detestable.

Facing Until Hong Zun's cold gaze, the group of Undead involuntarily took a step back.

Only now did they see clearly that the people who had arrived were all Great Saints with Saint Realm cultivation, while those present on their side were mostly just ordinary powerhouses of the Undead race.

They had no Saints or Great Saints presiding over them.

Under the fearful gaze of the Undead, Until Hong Zun gritted his teeth and said.

"Scram! From now on, without the order of my Dao One Sacred Land, you are not allowed to attack the Demon race again."

Huh???

Do you even hear what you're saying? Our two races are in a War of Extermination! What's the deal? Do we need to report to your Dao One Sacred Land before we attack?

The Undead were so angry they wanted to curse, but cowed by Until Hong Zun's deterrence, they dared not say a word.

Seeing that the group of Undead remained frozen in place, Until Hong Zun shouted again.

"Scram! If you don't scram, you die."

At this, the Undead dared not hesitate any longer and immediately turned and fled.

They didn't dare to fight Until Hong Zun and the others; not only was the gap in cultivation too large, but the weirdness of the humans made them feel uneasy just thinking about it.

Having driven away the Undead with two sentences, Until Hong Zun turned to the Demons behind him, who were still completely bewildered.

They never imagined that one day, they would actually be saved by the humans.

It was simply absurd. Humans! Their mortal enemies! The humans would one day come to save them?

As a result, even when Until Hong Zun and the others turned their gazes toward them, these Demons still hadn't come to their senses.

When they finally did, sensing the gaze of Until Hong Zun and the others, these Demons felt their hearts tighten again.

What did these humans want? What were they trying to do?

Nervous but not daring to fight or flee, the leading Demon could only bite the bullet and look at Until Hong Zun and the others, feeling extremely uncomfortable as it said insincerely.

"That... thank... thank you all for saving us."

Thanking the humans made this Demon feel even more disgusted than if it had swallowed a fly. It had intended to withdraw its people immediately after speaking.

But who would have thought that the next second, hearing these words, Until Hong Zun suddenly revealed a smile and replied.

"What's there to be polite about? What kind of relationship do we have? No need to thank me. Tie them up!"

It had wanted to exchange a few polite words, but before it could even speak, Until Hong Zun waved his hand and gave the order to tie them up.

Afterward, a group of burly humans swarmed up and subdued the team of Demon beasts in a flash.

"What are you doing? What are you trying to do?"

"Let go of me! What do you want?"

"Our Demon Emperor is right here! How dare you be so presumptuous?"

The sudden turn of events caused many Demon beasts to struggle and roar, but it was absolutely useless.

Until Hong Zun's thinking was very simple: these ingredients were simply reckless, so it was better to capture them and keep them in his own hands to feel at ease.

Until Hong Zun was truly heartbroken; he couldn't bear to see another ingredient wasted.

After capturing this team of Demon beasts, Until Hong Zun and his group took them directly back to the human encampment.

Watching everyone not only break up the fight but also tie up hundreds of Demon beasts, Ye Changqing asked curiously.

"Peak Master, what is this..."

"I don't feel safe leaving these ingredients outside. They are all as stupid as pigs. If I hadn't been there today, who knows how many more ingredients would have been lost."

Hearing this, Until Hong Zun said with a look of regret, while the hundreds of Demon beasts behind him were all furious.

You're being too disrespectful! Who the hell is as stupid as a pig? And who are you calling an ingredient? Get this straight: you humans are the blood-food for our Demon race!

Unfortunately, these Demon beasts had their mouths gagged and their cultivation sealed, so they had no power to resist at all.

But who would have thought that the next second, Until Hong Zun would speak again.

"If you ask me, we should just keep the entire Demon race in captivity to save them from being so troublesome all the time."

Huh???
