Chapter 3092
Seeing the remaining three old ancestors of the innate demon race, they went mad and charged, breaking through the blockade of the three Feather God Tribe elders.
In the end, however, they rescued those two old ancestor puppets, but left the true Tiger Ancestor and Deer Ancestor behind.
For a moment, not only did the true Tiger Ancestor and Deer Ancestor stare in shock, but all the human cultivators were stunned enough to drop their jaws.
Even the instigator of all this, Xu Jie on the city wall, was left standing there stunned.
No, I had thought these two old ancestor puppets would be effective, but I never expected them to be this effective.
You set off a smoke bomb, and you actually saved them.
Indeed, I never expected the outcome to be like this, and moreover, those three demon race elders directly issued a retreat order.
At this moment, the entire beast herd began to retreat in an orderly fashion, completely disregarding the life or death of the true Tiger Ancestor and Deer Ancestor.
Even their angry roars were utterly disregarded by the beast herd.
"Wait, you guys have water in your brains—I'm the real one, those two just now were fakes."
"Open your dog eyes and look—I'm the real old ancestor."
Furious, they shouted curses, but no matter how harshly the Tiger Ancestor and Deer Ancestor swore, the beast herd still retreated as it should.
Even if the demon race cast a glance, it was with a look of contempt and a shouted rebuke.
"Pah, such crude tactics—do you really think you can fool us?"
Huh???
Hearing this, the true Tiger Ancestor and Deer Ancestor stood there dumbfounded, wondering why no one believes the truth.
At the same time, among the human race, everyone had already begun sending secret voice transmissions via divine sense.
"Quickly surround these two demon ancestors, don't let them escape."
"Leave the demon ancestors to us; everyone else should gather more ingredients."
The beast herd's losses are not great, still less than half; the earlier battle was indeed fierce, but after all, their numbers are what they are.
In such a short time, it's not enough to deal a heavy blow to the entire beast herd.
Therefore, at this moment the innate demon race wants to retreat, but we have little chance to forcibly keep them; we can only try to retain as many as possible.
And the innate demon race naturally knows that on the battlefield, once defeated and wanting to retreat, they will certainly face pursuit.
The human race cannot let you retreat to safety so easily.
Since they are retreating after defeat, they must certainly pay a price, and the innate demon race has long been prepared for that.
Thus, a batch of demon race members were left behind to buy time, giving the beast herd a chance to escape.
These demon race members are surely doomed to die; they themselves know the outcome, so for a moment they exude a fearless, death-defying spirit.
Although few in number, relying on this spirit of treating death as homecoming, they rushed wildly across the battlefield and indeed disrupted the human race's pursuit.
Most of the human race's strong fighters also focused their energy on chasing these demon race members.
However, in this process, three slipped through the net; knowing death awaits on all sides, these three demon race members ran about the battlefield like headless flies.
They sought no survival; as long as they could tie down the numerous human strong fighters, their mission was considered accomplished.
Without any goal, these three demon race members, facing the pursuers behind them, didn't think twice and just ran straight for the city wall.
Looking at their direction, it was clearly heading for Ye Zhangqing's fire room.
Seeing this, the people behind who had been relatively relaxed immediately panicked.
"Damn it, they're heading for Young Master Ye."
"I saw it, what are you standing there for? Chase them quick."
"We must stop them, quickly."
Since it concerns Ye Zhangqing's safety, everyone's hearts were naturally burning with anxiety; joking aside, anyone could get hurt, but Ye Zhangqing must not.
Before, they thought these beasts were already trapped like a turtle in a jar, unable to escape, so they let their guard down a bit.
Unexpectedly, they stumbled upon the vital point.
If anything happened to Ye Zhangqing, not to mention themselves, even the brothers and elders of their clan would probably tear them apart alive.
In an instant they broke out in a cold sweat and hurriedly gave chase.
But the speed of those three demon race ahead was not slow either; at this life-and-death moment, each burst out with extreme speed.
In the chase, for a while the pursuers felt they couldn't catch up.
As the walls of the Immortal City Beyond the Heavens drew nearer, Ye Zhangqing's temporary fire room on the wall could be seen clearly.
Everyone's anxiety grew, and at the same time, Ye Zhangqing on the wall saw this scene.
Seeing the three demon race charging at him, Ye Zhangqing froze for a moment and spoke somewhat strangely.
"They're coming for me?"
At the same time, the three demon race also spotted Ye Zhangqing on the wall.
They thought that if they were going to die, killing one more Human Race would be a gain.
Immediately, two of the demon race opened their bloody maws and lunged to bite Ye Zhangqing.
But he didn't need to act himself; just then two graceful figures flashed from the sides, Bai Hua Xianzi and Absolute Shadow flew out to attack.
Facing the two innate demon race, the two women showed no fear at all.
Bai Hua Xianzi held a long sword, while Absolute Shadow gripped a dark dagger.
In the blink of an eye, the two sides were engaged in combat.
However, the fierce battle expected did not occur; after just three moves, the two demon beasts were slain on the spot by Bai Hua Xianzi and Absolute Shadow.
After so many years, the two women, including Chi Rao, are no longer what they used to be.
Especially with Ye Zhangqing's full support, it can be said that the women's strength has increased far more than that of others.
Now they have long since reached the cultivation level of the Ancient Immortal Realm.
Chi Rao stood beside Ye Zhangqing without acting; seeing the last demon beast still charging this way, she was about to act, but Ye Zhangqing stepped in first to block it.
Wife, don't come over, your hands are dirty.
He spoke, then casually swung a hand‑blade; a flash of sword light sliced past, and before the innate demon could approach, it was cleaved in two.
Even Bai Hua Xianzi and the other women have already attained Ancient Immortal Realm cultivation, so Ye Zhangqing's cultivation is naturally higher still.
Over the years, Ye Zhangqing has long been the present era's strongest, his strength not the slightest bit weaker than Zhao Tianqing and the others used to be.
Dealing with an ordinary innate demon is naturally a simple matter.
The three charging innate demons were easily dealt with; seeing this, the crowd that had been hot on their heels from behind finally let out a sigh of relief.
He stepped forward, wiped sweat from his brow, and said.
"Young Master Ye, we were careless."
Indeed, the crowd was still shaken; Ye Zhangqing smiled and reassured them.
"It's fine; besides, I'm not utterly helpless, so there's no need for such protection."
"But…………………"
"Don't treat the cook as anything less than a cultivator."
Frankly, these three innate demons posed no pressure whatsoever; they're completely insignificant.
Afterward, the innate demons left to hold the rear were all subdued in short order.
The Human Race's stance remains: capture them alive if possible, only killing as a last resort.
Thus, the battlefield saw many more innate demons captured alive.
