Chapter 949: Don't Bully the Demon Race Too Much

~7 min read 1,294 words

Upon hearing that the Human Race had actually come to rescue the Demon Race, all the Undying Race Great Emperors wore complex expressions.

I can't imagine what reason would have the Human Race step up to rescue the Demon Race—this is absolutely insane, right?

Moreover, the most crucial point is that the entire Undying Race is now genuinely afraid of the Human Race.

These guys are all weird; after fighting the Demon Race and getting a taste of success, who the hell still wants to fight the Human Race? That's just being idle after a full meal.

Therefore, if possible, the Undying Race would rather not engage the Human Race at all.

For this reason, although the Undying Race Great Emperors cursed inwardly, they maintained their composure on the surface, patiently saying:

"This matter has nothing to do with you Humans, right?"

"As long as you Humans don't interfere, afterward the Undying Race is willing to offer compensation."

"Monster Clan Territory—I, the Undying Race, am willing to give up one-third of it."

This is absolutely a sky‑high price; they do the fighting and dying, yet in the end the land they conquer is simply handed over to the Humans for one‑third.

Such terms made all the Undying Race Great Emperors feel as if their hearts were bleeding, but they had no choice; to avoid further torment by the Humans, they endured.

As for the Undying Race's own territory, the Great Emperors didn't even mention it.

The Humans, having marched straight through, surely also know about the Demon Cave situation.

Now talking about giving or not giving the Undying Race territory is completely meaningless.

They had even prepared for massive losses, but the Human side showed almost no hesitation; Yun Xiantai directly spoke up to refuse:

"No, the Demon Race must not be destroyed."

You.............

The Undying Race Great Emperors were gritting their teeth in anger, but before they could speak, Yun Xiantai continued:

"However, if you are willing, my Human Race is willing to act as a mediator; let's sit down and talk, after all the Demon Tribe affair also requires us to work together—no single race can stand against the Demon Tribe alone, everyone knows that, right?"

"What if the Undying Race does not agree?"

"Then we'll join forces with the Demon Race to kill you."

"You........."

There is no choice—if you heed advice, we sit and talk; if not, we kill you.

Seeing the Humans' firm stance, the Undying Race Great Emperors gritted their teeth in anger, yet they had no recourse—not even against the Demon Race, much less a single Human Race.

If it weren't for the previous battle at Tianhong Guan, the Undying Race would never have agreed, but now...

"What if the Demon Race refuses?"

"Then we'll destroy it just the same."

In the end, the Undying Race Great Emperors reluctantly nodded and accepted the Humans' proposal, since the Humans guaranteed at least a path to survival for the Undying Race.

This could be seen as not truly driving them into a desperate situation.

After convincing the Undying Race, only the Demon Race remains.

Yun Xiantai, Cloud Luo Shèngzhǔ, Jade Pool Shèngzhǔ, Qi Xiong, Shi Qingfeng, and the other Human Race Great Emperors then came to the Demon Race side.

Upon hearing that the Human Race Great Emperors were coming, the Demon Race emperors and several elders of Qingtian Holy Land, though unwilling, still chose to receive them.

"What's the matter?"

As soon as the two sides met, the atmosphere became abnormally tense, mainly on the Demon Race side, where everyone stared fixedly at the people from Dao Yi Shengdi.

It is this very group that has killed who knows how many of their Demon Race compatriots.

Meanwhile, the Human Race side showed no change, appearing quite calm.

First, they stated their purpose to the Demon Race emperors, but the very first sentence caused the Demon Race emperors to completely break down.

"What did you say? You're here to rescue us Demon Race? Get lost—do we Demon Race need your rescue?"

"Utter nonsense; even if we Demon Race die in battle or face extermination, we would never ask the Human Race to save us."

"Why get so worked up?"

Seeing the Demon Race emperors look like they wanted to devour someone, Yu Mo spoke irritably, but this remark only made the Demon Race emperors lose control even more.

"How dare you say that? Your Dao Yi Shengdi is like a weasel giving New Year greetings to a chicken—what good intentions could it have?"

"So you're saying it's not needed?"

"Not needed."

"Fine then, since you want extermination, we'll inform the Undying Race and join forces to wipe you out."

You..................

The Demon Race emperors, who had just been furious beyond containment, hearing this, were instantly stunned.

"You really mean it?"

I have no doubt the Undying Race will agree to join forces; given the current situation, it's inevitable.

Moreover, the Demon Race has long known that before arriving, the Undying Race had already made contact with the Human Race.

And the Human Race Great Emperors coming here clearly have already reached some agreement with the Demon Race.

Therefore, the two races joining forces is entirely capable of utterly annihilating the Demon Race.

The Demon Race emperors fell silent, their expressions complex; Yun Xiantai, seeing this, then spoke slowly:

"Actually, the Undying Race's move is because the Demon Cave has appeared, right within their territory, and not just one."

"What did you say?"

"Therefore, what we should be concerned about now is the Demon Tribe issue; once the Demon Tribe descends, all races of Haotu Shijie will be unable to remain untouched."

"At this point, for you to keep fighting here is utterly meaningless, so my Human Race is willing to act as a mediator; let's sit down and chat."

The matter of the Demon Cave is still something the Demon Race emperors have never heard before.

At the same time, they finally understood why the Undying Race acted so wildly—it was because they were forced into it.

Yet when the Human Race said they wanted to negotiate, the Demon Race emperors were utterly unwilling.

Because even fools know that the so-called negotiation will definitely require the demon race to give up part of their benefits.

As for the human race, it's obviously impossible for them to suffer a loss themselves.

But right now the human race's intention is already clear: either negotiate, or we'll kill you.

At this moment on the battlefield, the strong ones of the three races have gathered together; the camps of the three races are not far apart, yet they are clearly separated, and nobody dares to make any move.

As for the human camp, Ye Zhangqing, Hong Zun, Bai Hua Xianzi, Jue Ying, and the others gazed at the battlefield, where the demon corpses were already a mess, each one feeling great regret.

"Alas, what a waste, what a waste."

"How come these ingredients are so fragile? From now on we really need to protect them well."

"Who says it isn't? Just a moment of carelessness, look how much ingredients we've lost."

"From now on we must not let the ingredients be wasted like that."

Hearing everyone's sighs, Ye Zhangqing stood aside and kept feeling that something was off.

You guys, are you really feeling sorry for the demon race?

But just as everyone was speaking, because the negotiations hadn't officially begun yet, in everyone's sight a small-scale conflict between the demon race and the undying race erupted instantly.

This is quite normal on the battlefield; although none of the races' great emperor ancestors have issued orders, so large-scale fighting won't break out, but conflicts of this scale—hundreds or even thousands of participants—are commonplace.
