Chapter 195
We were completely dumbfounded by the water clan—who killed whom, you or me? This is just outrageous.
Long Aotian kept urging Hong Zun to act, while the Old Dragon King told Hong Zun to release him and kill this traitor.
Watching the two argue, Qing Shi couldn't help muttering.
"What should we do now? Release this old dragon?"
"Are you fucking stupid? Once the formation opens, what do we do?"
As for Zhāng Tiānzhèn on the side, hearing this he immediately shouted, "How the hell can we let it go?"
Hong Zun also nodded.
"We can't let him go; screw it, let's deal with him first."
Although the situation had become somewhat strange, the Old Dragon King still had to be killed; hearing this, Hong Zun's gaze turned again to the Old Dragon King, and he had already made up his mind.
Seeing this, the Old Dragon King angrily cursed.
"Hong Zun, you can't kill me; let me go, and I guarantee the water clan will not encroach on your Dao Yi Sect in the slightest."
Hong Zun replied without hesitation.
"Do you think I'd believe you?"
As for Long Aotian, seeing this he was overjoyed.
"Quick, Hong Zun, kill it—finish this old thing with one sword."
The loyal dragon kings behind him, seeing this, went berserk and hurled curses.
"Long Aotian, you traitor, you killed the king and usurped the throne—you won't end well."
"Hong Zun, release the Dragon King, and we guarantee we will not be enemies of your Dao Yi Sect in the future."
Annoyed by the water clan, Hong Zun immediately shouted angrily.
"Shut up."
"Whether to kill or not is my business; stop yapping at the sidelines."
After shouting a rebuke, Hong Zun finally thrust his sword, and amid the Old Dragon King's roar, he killed it with one strike.
Seeing the Old Dragon King dead, Long Aotian's excitement could not be concealed; the Dragon King's position was secured.
"Go."
After dealing with the Old Dragon King, the four of them without hesitation carried the Dragon King's corpse and retreated directly to the Near Sea Grand Formation.
Now it's impossible for the water clan to break the formation; besides the Old Dragon King's death, Long Aotian, who wants to take the Dragon King's throne, must first stabilize the water clan's interior.
In this situation, it still has the nerve to think about dealing with the Dao Yi Sect and breaking the formation.
As for the cooperation with the demon races of Dongzhou, that was promised by the Old Dragon King—what does it have to do with Long Aotian?
For now, the most important thing is to secure the Dragon King's throne.
Moreover, even the remains of the Flood Dragon Ancestor have been destroyed—what can we use to break the formation?
Therefore, facing Hong Zun and the others retreating into the formation, Long Aotian had no intention of pursuing them; instead, he said to the demon kings behind him.
"Go."
Soon, the water clan outside the formation all retreated into the sea, and the great battle ended just like that.
"They're just retreating?"
"So does that mean we've held Jinhai Yingdi?"
"Never mind your business; that's the Peak Masters' achievement."
"Exactly, the Peak Masters are mighty."
"The Grand Elder is mighty."
"The Peak Masters are mighty."
For the disciples of Divine Sword Peak and Jade Maiden Peak, the water clan's retreat is naturally good news, and besides slaying the Old Dragon King in this battle, it's a great achievement; in the short term, the water clan certainly won't have the strength to threaten Jinhai Yingdi again.
The formation wasn't broken, which is the best outcome; otherwise, once the battle started, many disciples wouldn't know how many would die.
Everyone breathed a sigh of relief, including Ye Zhangqing; seeing the excited, beaming senior brothers and sisters, Ye Zhangqing also unconsciously showed a smile.
"Junior Brother Ye Zhangqing, we really won big in this battle."
Xu Jie came up at some point, put his arm around Ye Zhangqing's neck, and exclaimed excitedly.
"That's exactly right."
"So should we celebrate today?"
He gave Ye Zhangqing a wild look, naturally understanding his meaning; however, having survived the ordeal, Ye Zhangqing's mood was also not bad, and there wasn't much he could do, plus given the pressure the disciples had been under lately.
Don't look at them laughing and joking all day; the water clan's threat has constantly hung over everyone's heads.
Now that the water clan has retreated, it's indeed time to celebrate properly.
"Good, today we should really celebrate."
"Junior Brother Ye Zhangqing, be open and cheerful."
Jinhai Yingdi fell into revelry, while in Dongzhou territory, the great battle continued.
Humans and demons, both sides fought ever more fiercely; this was a great war between the two races, and its brutality goes without saying.
On the Huling battlefield, they had clashed with the Tiger Clan several times, and even Qi Xiong, Wu Shou and other high-ranking members of the Dao Yi Sect personally went into battle.
"These stupid tigers are still so hard to kill."
The current situation remains evenly matched, and the human side hasn't gained any advantage.
Originally Qi Xiong planned to strike down several Tiger Clan demon kings, but these stupid tigers are all thick-skinned and tough; winning isn't hard, but slaying them is indeed difficult.
Unless one can seize a good opportunity, completely cut off their retreat, and have enough time, then there's a chance.
Hearing Qi Xiong's complaint, Wu Shou beside him also said helplessly.
"The Tiger Clan isn't stupid either; moreover, the Wise Tiger Demon King coordinates the whole situation, leaving almost no loopholes, so this battle isn't easy to fight."
Even if it's not good to fight, we must fight on; with no loopholes, then directly compete in strength, compete in foundation.
Wanting to strike unexpectedly, now it seems impossible; the Tiger Tribe side gives no chance at all, so we can only clash head-on.
The pressure on the Human Race side is great, but the Tiger Tribe side is even more severe.
To be frank, after several battles with the Human Race, the Tiger Tribe has always been under enormous pressure; moreover, with Qi Xiong personally commanding the Huling battlefield, the pressure is even greater.
At this moment, all the demon kings of the Tiger Tribe gathered together, each inquiring about the progress on the Water Tribe side.
"What does the Water Tribe side say? Or is there still no news?"
"Wasn't it said that the formation could be broken in a day? It's already been several days, right."
"Zhi Hu, what exactly is the Dragon King saying?"
"I can't get in touch with it."
"Then you won't contact other Water Tribe demon kings?"
I've contacted the Old Dragon King several times, but there's still no response; the Zhi Hu Demon King is also anxious, and deep down I have a vague bad feeling.
Could something have happened to the Water Tribe side?
Under the urging of all the demon kings, finally the Zhi Hu Demon King contacted Long Aotian.
After all, he's the second-in-command of the Water Tribe; since we can't reach the Old Dragon King, naturally we contact him.
Fortunately, this time the bloodline connection was quickly established, and Long Aotian's figure appeared in the blood mist.
"Long Aotian, what's going on with the Dragon King? Why can't we contact him? Also, how's the situation on your Water Tribe side? Haven't you broken the formation yet?"
As soon as he spoke, the Zhi Hu Demon King fired off successive questions; but as his words fell, from the blood mist could be heard intermittent shouts of killing and cursing.
"Long Aotian, you have overstepped your rank, your crime deserves death; the Founding Ancestor watches from heaven and will certainly not spare you."
"Long Aotian, you are a sinner of our Water Tribe."
"Even as a ghost, I, the king, will not let you go, Long Aotian, you wicked villain."
Huh???
Although I couldn't hear it clearly, the Zhi Hu Demon King still sensed something was wrong; taking a closer look, that damn Long Aotian seems to be in the sea right now—you damn lot aren't supposed to be breaking the formation, what are you doing running into the sea?
