CHAPTER 292: CHAPTER 279 XIAO NIAN IS SO CUTE
"Messages from the other clans have come, stating that those who went to pursue the Nine-tailed Fox Clan this time..." the member of the Demon Clan trembled, not daring to continue.
Hu Yang suddenly had an ominous premonition and said sternly, "Speak!"
"Those six mighty Supremes, as well as other Supremes." The Demon Clan member took a deep breath and said, "All have fallen in battle."
All!
Fallen in battle!
How is this possible?
A nameless panic arose, Hu Yang tried to stand, but his injuries hadn’t healed. Just as he stood up, he suddenly spat out blood.
"Clan Leader!"
Those below immediately descended into chaos.
Hu Yang fiercely grabbed the Demon Clan member’s collar: "Impossible! Ling Tian was already at the end of his strength! Aside from Fox Ruoshui, no one among the Nine-tailed Fox Clan was a match for my six brothers! Even if they couldn’t stop the Fox Clan, it shouldn’t have led to total annihilation."
To accomplish this, at least two Demon Lord Level powers would be needed, right?
Fox Ruoshui is strong, but not to this extent!
The Demon Clan member trembled, "Clan Leader, it’s true. Now, those six clans have already fallen into disarray, they have gathered outside of our territory, clamoring for an explanation from our Overlord Tiger Clan."
Hu Yang’s expression shifted: "What explanation!"
"They say their kings set out upon your command. Now, with their kings fallen, the Overlord Tiger Clan must compensate them," said the Demon Clan member in a quiet voice.
Hu Yang clenched his teeth: "A bunch of shortsighted fools. At this juncture, they still demand compensation! Compensation my ass!"
He burst into rage, cursing and swearing on the spot.
The Demon Clansmen below, upon hearing this, didn’t dare utter a word.
When Hu Yang had finished cursing, a trembling Demon Clansman asked, "What about these Demon Clansmen who have gathered here, what should be done with them?"
Hu Yang said coldly, "What can be done? Drive them away, drive them all away."
The outcome of this was completely beyond his expectations. Only four including himself were left of the ten ruling clans.
Originally, the Demon Clan has a long adolescence period. Since the calamity ten thousand years ago, the Demon Clan had fallen into decline and until now, remained the weakest among the three clans.
These years, they had struggled to survive amidst the struggle between the Demon Clan and the Human Clan.
Now look.
The Demon Clan had suddenly gone mad, taking the initiative to attack the Demon Clan.
As for the Human Clan, they too failed to understand the principle of shared fate, not only offering no help but also kicking them while they were down.
Originally, they could have held on for a while.
Now, with six of their top fighters suddenly dead, and many of the Supremes fallen, too.
How could they continue the fight?
Once this news spreads out!
How could the Demon Clan pass up such an opportunity?
The catastrophe that could lead to the extinction of the Demon Clan is right before their eyes.
At this moment, Hu Yang no longer cared about dealing with those troublemaking members of the Demon Clan, he had only one thought on his mind.
This place is no longer safe for the Demon Clan.
He must escape!
But as the head of the Demon Clan, if he were to flee, the target on his back would be too conspicuous. He needed to find a few scapegoats.
A ruthless gleam flashed in Hu Yang’s eyes.
There’s a saying among the Human Clan that goes, ’Better for your companions to die than for yourself.’
Since six of his brothers had already perished, the death of a few more meant nothing.
Hu Yang immediately began to plan.
He desired nothing more than to successfully escape.
Fortunately, his son Hu Lie was currently in the Human Clan’s region, and their Overlord Tiger Clan had a Secret Technique to conceal one’s presence. As long as he could escape the Demon Realm, he could use the secret technique to hide his presence, and while he was at it, he could also go look for Hu Lie.
Hu Lie had yet to report back about the enormous opportunity he was seeking.
If he could find and consume the pre-reincarnation true form of Master Sheng, their father and son’s Cultivation would surely skyrocket. By then, it would be time to settle the score with Fox Ruoshui.
Whenever he thought of Fox Ruoshui, Hu Yang unintentionally revealed a look of greed.
However, there were more pressing matters at hand, and he had to temporarily put aside the matter of Fox Ruoshui.
After the six Supreme beings inexplicably perished in battle, the remaining few approached Hu Yang wanting to discuss the situation.
After meeting them once, Hu Yang, appearing gravely injured, fainted after uttering just a few words.
With no other option, the remaining few could only temporarily leave and wait for Hu Yang to recover from his injuries.
As for the Nine-tailed Fox Clan, they didn’t dare to provoke them for the time being.
The journey that followed became exceptionally smooth.
The Ling Tian Sword Master and the Nine-tailed Fox Clan safely reached the border.
Lin Bai was already there with the Human Clan experts to meet them.
The Fox Clan suddenly saw so many Human Clan members and subconsciously felt some fear.
Ling Tian Sword Master quickly reassured them: "Don’t worry. The current Human Clan won’t harm you."
The people who exploited his injury to harm Ruoshui fifty years ago had all been retaliated against by him since then.
But without absolute certainty, Ling Tian Sword Master still didn’t dare to seek out Fox Ruoshui.
Now that he had come, it was naturally because he had absolute confidence.
Albeit relying on his disciple.
But.
Who can say that having a disciple to rely on isn’t a skill?
Lin Bai saw Ling Tian Sword Master from afar, lifting a radiant smile, he warmly greeted: "Big Brother!"
The Nine-tailed Fox Clan was immediately shocked as they looked at Ling Tian Sword Master.
They had thought that Ling Tian Sword Master was purely boasting! But here, the foremost person of the Human Clan was actually calling him big brother and seemed very willing to do so?
This, this, this...
What kind of monster is Fox Ruoshui’s partner?
Ling Tian Sword Master himself had felt a bit guilty, but upon hearing the address big brother, he immediately puffed up with pride.
"Lin Bai, you’ve arrived. These Nine-tailed Foxes have been reclusive for many years, they’ve now been compelled to emerge, please see if you can arrange something for them."
Lin Bai was also very enthusiastic: "Big Brother’s matters are of course my matters. Don’t worry Big Brother, I will make sure everything is perfectly arranged."
Ling Tian Sword Master was touched.
He had misunderstood Lin Bai before.
Lin Bai Sword Immortal is truly a good person!
Little did he know, Lin Bai regarded Ling Tian Sword Master with immense mystery and terror — calling him big brother came without any feelings of being wronged.
Thus.
Under the brotherly expressions of Lin Bai Sword Immortal and Ling Tian Sword Master, the group of the Fox Clan instantly felt much more at ease.
This time, have they really latched onto a true powerful benefactor?
"Big Brother, where’s Sister-in-law?" Lin Bai Sword Immortal asked.
Ling Tian Sword Master instantly became a bit worried: "Ruoshui and Shi Nian are delaying the Demon Clan at the back, they should be catching up soon..."
Just as Ling Tian Sword Master finished speaking.
"Master." Shi Nian’s sweet voice rang out.
Fox Ruoshui and Shi Nian had arrived.
Ling Tian Sword Master first breathed a sigh of relief, then glared at Shi Nian: "What’s going on with you, taking so long without using the All-Worlds Communication to send a message of safety, were you doing this on purpose, I..."
Before he could finish.
Bang!
Fox Ruoshui raised her scabbard and hit him on the head.
Ling Tian Sword Master: "???"
Fox Ruoshui’s expression was fierce: "Shi Nian is so adorable! As her Master, how could you bear to speak to her that way? Do you even resemble a Master?"
Ling Tian Sword Master: "???"
Shi Nian softly said: "Master’s wife, it’s okay. I’m already used to it."
Used to it?
This scoundrel has always been this rough?
Fox Ruoshui’s expression grew even fiercer.
