Chapter 965: Their Courage Keeps Growing

Up.

After observing for a moment, Xu Jie also had no idle talk, and gave everyone a glance.

Then, in the darkness, several black shadows surged forward—those with pursed lips pursed their lips, those holding the Demon-Binding Rope held the Demon-Binding Rope—and within just a few breaths, the five Demon Race were subdued again.

It went too smoothly; the people who had it easy didn't know what to say.

They handed the five Demon Race over again to the disciple on guard duty, and Xu Jie and the others moved once more.

After that, three times in a row, they easily subdued the Demon Race.

That was a sure thing every time, and as the successes piled up, Xu Jie and company's courage grew as well.

"Junior Brother, these Demon Race don't seem to be up to any scheme."

"Liu Shuang whispered to Xu Jie, 'Earlier it seemed they were overthinking things.'"

"Upon hearing that, Xu Jie also curled his lips and said."

"I overestimated them."

"Saying that, Xu Jie still wondered, what's there to worship about those Demonic Cultivators?"

"They even treated the Demon Race as gods, and all they got was this pathetic ability?"

"Isn't this easier than handling the monster race?"

"They discovered the Demon Race truly had no defenses; not only Xu Jie and company, but everyone's courage grew bolder."

"Later, almost everyone felt a sense of recklessness."

"Anyway, the Demon Race have no defenses whatsoever, so you can do whatever you want with them."

"Below, many Demon Race were subdued silently, while the others showed no reaction at all."

"In the void, Yun Xiantai, which had been guarding against the Demon Race's Demon God, Shi Qingfeng and others waited left and right, yet saw no reaction from the Demon Race."

"To avoid startling the snake, nobody dared to unleash their imperial thoughts."

"But under normal circumstances, there should have been some movement by now; it's impossible they haven't noticed anything yet."

"It's already been one Shíchén."

"An elder of the Jade Pool Holy Land said, his face full of a strange expression."

"After one Shíchén, the Demon Race remained utterly silent; hearing that, Bai Zu asked uncertainly."

"They haven't even made a move yet, have they?"

"Impossible; it's been one Shíchén, how could they still not have acted?"

"What a joke; if they don't act, why are they even here? Lying in the night for one Shíchén just to watch?"

"Then why is there no movement?"

"But if they have acted, it couldn't still be this quiet; we should have noticed the commotion by now."

"The elders were utterly baffled, unable to figure it out."

"Actually, they've never encountered the Demon Race before; after all, Demon Race invasions aren't common, and they don't even know when the last one occurred."

"Moreover, even if there had been any, the scale would be tiny; an invasion of this scale by the Demon Race is unprecedented in history."

"Thus, the elders likewise know little about the Demon Race."

"But looking at the situation now, something feels off; it's too quiet."

"Could something have gone wrong?"

"An elder uncertainly said, worrying that perhaps they'd already been captured by the Demon Race, but as soon as he spoke, the idea was shot down."

"How could that be? Even catching a pig would make some noise; no movement at all means nothing happened."

"That remark shows no respect for the Demon Race, after all, they were subdued in silence by the people of the Three Holy Lands."

"Moreover, their numbers were not small, and they didn't even make a sound."

"The elders in the void were jumping up and down in frustration, while the folks below were having a blast catching them."

"Damn, this is stupidly easy—it's like eating buns, left one, right one."

"Some even couldn't help but sigh."

"Old drunkard, you say why would the Demon Race go to such trouble to come to Haotu Shijie, what are they after?"

"Qing Shi gave Hong Zun a strange look and asked, 'What exactly are the Demon Race here for?'"

"Upon hearing that, Hong Zun casually replied."

"Delivering warmth."

"It's literally just delivering warmth—it's perfect in flavor and damn easy to pull off."

"Although their frontal strength isn't weak, in other respects... well, it's hard to put into words."

"It's like they have no brains."

"But as the saying goes, 'Who walks by the river never keeps their shoes dry'; as everyone's courage grew bolder, more and more Demon Race were captured, yet eventually the Demon Race still noticed them."

"Funny enough, it mainly involved Shen Xian, Wanxiang and their team."

"Their haul was plentiful, everyone was excited, just as they were about to move, Wanxiang accidentally stepped on a Demon Race's tail."

"Instantly, that Demon Race woke up."

"Upon opening its eyes, it didn't know when, but it found itself surrounded by several burly men."

"Instantly, that Demon Race's eyes widened, and then it let out a fierce roar."

"What are you doing?"

"Seeing Wanxiang with his hairy hands and feet, Shen Xian and the others were startled: 'You damn well shouldn't stomp around without looking where you're stepping!'"

"As for that, Wanxiang wore a helpless expression."

"I... I didn't notice."

"You really are............"

Damn it, we're under a night raid—do you think we're out for a stroll? Before you even set foot down, you should at least have a look, huh?

And because everything had gone smoothly before, everyone's guard had dropped a lot, and they gradually stopped taking it seriously.

But it's come to this; with a roar from this demon, more demons were roused.

Watching demon after demon open their eyes and glare at the crowd, Shen Xian showed no hesitation, directly throwing out a sentence.

"Run."

He turned and ran without the slightest hesitation.

Seeing this, the others naturally didn't dare linger, and immediately gave chase.

We've already gained quite a bit; right now it's naturally impossible to clash head-on with the demons.

And the startled demons, upon spotting the crowd's figures, pursued without hesitation.

At the same time, the Demon God was also startled and acted immediately, but was promptly blocked by Yun Xiantai, Shi Qingfeng, and the others.

"Only now you show up."

You venerable elders have been waiting until the flowers wilted.

We waited left and right, but saw no movement at all; now it's fine, finally there's some movement, but isn't this movement a bit too big?

In an instant we were spotted by so many demons—what's wrong with you guys, did you go and steal the damn Demon God?

Ahead, disciples of the Three Holy Lands sprinted along multiple routes; behind them, countless demons pursued relentlessly.

Meanwhile, on the walls of Tianhong Guan, the people who had long been prepared opened the gate at once and made ready to cover the retreat of everyone.

All of this was according to plan, so nobody panicked.

But when they saw the number of demons behind the crowd, the people on the walls couldn't help but stare for a moment.

"My goodness, did you provoke the Demon God? To draw this many."

"Cut the chatter, ring the bell—the numbers are too many."

Weren't we supposed to be doing a sneak attack? How did we end up luring all the demons?

Running for their lives all the way, Shen Xian kept cursing angrily along the route.

"Your kick woke up every demon."

"I don't know either, and besides, who would know with such a short tail?"

"Cut the chatter, hurry up."

The demons have come in such numbers that nobody dares to look back.
