Chapter 2998: The Advantage Is With Us, What Is There to Fear?
Until now, these women still didn't know why these people in the city would take action.
It doesn't look like they intend to save them either.
So, for now, not to mention saving others, whether they can even save themselves is still a question; if the old ancestors can't hold out and are defeated, and the demon ancestors surge in to attack, what will become of these people in the city?
Thinking of this, the woman couldn't help but let out a sigh.
At present, this situation is still unsolvable.
But just as she was secretly feeling helpless, the Barbarian God Tribe and the Feather God Tribe had already joined forces.
Of course, the decision naturally lay with the Human Race, especially the members of the Dao One Immortal Sect, after all they understand the demons best.
Well, at this moment the Three Ancestors of the Barbarian God Tribe were looking at Hong Zun before them.
"Just say whether you'll do it or not."
Although the earlier sworn brotherhood was made in a muddled way, after spending this time together they had gradually grown used to it, so their speech became much more casual.
Only hearing Hong Zun speak in a deep voice.
"The advantage is with us, let's go."
"Fine, then let's do it."
After all, these innate demons look so delicious to anyone who sees them; if we could take them all down, we'd have enough to eat for a long time.
Besides, Ye Zhangqing said it himself—at the very least, these are Eternal-grade Ingredients.
Just thinking about having this period of time in the future when we can eat these Eternal-grade Ingredients makes everyone feel excited.
With such a huge harvest and yet such little risk, what reason is there not to do it?
On the other side, on the battlefield, the Human Race grew more desperate the longer they fought; after barely escaping and running this far, today's battle cost them even more of their people.
Although they knew this battle held no hope whatsoever, the fact that the people from the city had charged out, wiped out that group of demons, and rescued a bunch of women and children gave them a bit of comfort.
At least the children survived, which for their Human Race lineage counts as preserving a seed of fire.
Thinking of this, everyone seemed to have nothing else to ask for, and instead they relaxed their hands and feet even more.
Even the women didn't know why the people in the city had taken action, so these people naturally knew even less.
They simply assumed it was to save people.
That was enough.
They were already prepared to die fighting here—killing one was no loss, killing two was a gain.
But just as everyone, with the resolve to fight to the death, was about to act, suddenly a terrifying aura came from behind.
The next second, the Barbarian God Tribe and Feather God Tribe members charged straight onto the battlefield, their target pointing directly at those innate demons.
With the Barbarian God Tribe and Feather God Tribe taking action, the innate Human Race on the battlefield, which had originally been trapped in dire straits, felt its pressure ease at once and couldn't help but let out a breath.
Watching them charge straight up to face those innate demons, the strong ones of the Human Race each wore an expression of gratitude.
These people actually really want to help us—do we not have to die today?
It's clear that the strength of the Barbarian God Tribe and Feather God Tribe is not inferior to theirs and the innate demons.
Moreover, they have the advantage in numbers and are fighting with rested troops against weary foes, so there is no reason for this battle to end in defeat.
The only thing that struck everyone as strange was how, when these people took action, they felt somehow odd—why were they all so excited here?
Are they that eager to fight? Do they get this excited just from being able to brawl?
Everyone naturally didn't know that the Barbarian God Tribe and Feather God Tribe experts were excited solely because these demons were food ingredients.
In the eyes of the innate Human Race, these demons are arch-enemies; whenever they are mentioned, only hatred remains.
But for the Barbarian God Tribe and Feather God Tribe, these innate demons are nothing less than walking delicacies served on platters.
What's more, they are delicacies of the highest grade, hard to come by.
Now these platters are laid out right before them—how could they not be excited?
If they manage to take them down, that would truly be a windfall.
Precisely for this reason, the Barbarian God Tribe and Feather God Tribe exert themselves so fiercely when they act.
Compared to the excitement of the Barbarian God Tribe and Feather God Tribe, the demon side looks utterly depressed.
They were fighting just fine when suddenly a group of Cheng Yaojin rushed out—hey, is this your business? Then come on.
Just now they hadn't made a move against the city folk, yet you're insisting on charging in.
A demon expert shouted angrily.
"Is this something you can interfere with? You're courting death."
"We didn't want to interfere; we just want to kill you."
As for the grudge between these innate demons and innate humans, they have no interest at all; they are simply here to hunt for food ingredients.
Who made these innate demons each so delicious?
With the addition of the Barbarian God Tribe and Feather God Tribe, the innate Human Race side quickly turned the tide.
Everyone also finally had a moment to catch their breath.
Especially those two old ancestors, who had just been fighting two against five, facing the siege of five demon ancestors, had already exerted their utmost and suffered quite serious injuries.
But before the two could even catch their breath, they heard the Three Ancestors of the Barbarian God Tribe barking impatiently.
"What are you standing there for? Come help already."
"Oh oh, coming."
Hearing that, the two old ancestors of the innate Human Race first stared in surprise—'We just caught our breath, you know—it's been incredibly tough fighting just now.'
But since the other side came to save them, it's only natural not to let them act while they stand by and watch.
So, even though they were utterly exhausted, the two old ancestors still rushed forward again.
Originally it was two versus five, but now, with the addition of the Barbarian God Tribe and Feather God Tribe elders, it instantly became nine versus five.
This is how the tides turn—the five demon ancestors who had originally held the advantage were instantly crushed and suppressed.
Seeing the situation deteriorate, the five demon ancestors also panicked, and one of them spoke.
"Who are you? What benefits have these humans given you? My demon race can give you double, and this has nothing to do with you."
This can't go on, so this demon ancestor tried to lure the Barbarian God Tribe and Feather God Tribe to stop fighting.
Without helpers, killing this group of humans is just a matter of moments.
But upon hearing this, the Three Ancestors of the Barbarian God Tribe shouted without hesitation.
"What we want, you cannot afford to give."
"What we want is precisely these demon ancestors themselves; you are the ingredients, and what we want is you—could you possibly give us your lives?"
But upon hearing this, that demon ancestor still refused to give up, saying:
"As long as you speak, whatever you demand, my demon race will agree; I will give you what these humans give you, only more, never less—such a free windfall, don't you want it?"
Just nodding is enough; what's there to hesitate about?
But before the five demon ancestors could figure it out, the Three Ancestors of the Barbarian God Tribe already replied coldly, without the slightest hesitation.
"I want your lives."
"This is indeed what the Barbarian God Tribe and Feather God Tribe want; these are top-notch ingredients—can you give them to me?"
Upon hearing this, the five demon ancestors also turned grim—it's practically suicide.
