Chapter 825: Chapter 819: Lei Qianzhang

Whoosh!

In the Demon Clan camp, suddenly, a figure shot up like a rainbow light. The figure wrapped within it was none other than Ye Xuan!

The appearance of Ye Xuan instantly stirred a storm in the Demon Clan camp. Those demon soldiers locked on to Ye Xuan, and the next moment, the entire camp was in an uproar—a human had actually barged into their Demon Clan camp.

However, at the moment of emerging, Ye Xuan also took out his identity token and infused a strand of True Yuan into it.

Buzz.

On Ba Zhuo and Luo Qing’s side, their identity tokens lit up.

“Lord Ye Xuan sent a message, attack!”

Ba Zhuo picked up a large axe and leaped out.

Behind them, nearly three thousand soldiers also charged out with them, pouring into the Demon Clan camp.

In an instant, the sound of shouting and killing shook the heavens.

“Don’t get entangled with the enemy; the key is in hand. Retreat!”

Ye Xuan landed among the Human Clan soldiers and shouted to everyone.

“Got the key?”

Luo Qing and Ba Zhuo also had surprised looks in their eyes. Had Ye Xuan already obtained the Night Key?

“Got it. Let’s leave first!”

Ye Xuan nodded, thoroughly reassuring everyone.

“Brothers, the mission is accomplished, retreat immediately!” Ba Zhuo and Luo Qing shouted loudly.

Upon hearing this, those soldiers were also invigorated. The mission was completed, and substantial merit points awaited them.

Under the tidal wave-like impact, the Demon Clan army couldn’t withstand it. With the commanders absent, there was no way to organize an effective attack and blockade.

Tearing open a gap, the entire army immediately broke through and rushed out.

However, just as Ye Xuan’s team successfully broke out, no one noticed a figure on the other side of the battlefield observing everything, who vanished in the blink of an eye.

…

Quickly distancing themselves from the Demon Clan camp, Ye Xuan led the troops to the outskirts of the Heavenly Fury Forest. Thinking that the Demon Clan must not let them go easily when they realize it, it was wise to leave early for caution’s sake.

But upon reaching the outer region, everyone gradually felt at ease. Here, even if the Demon Clan wanted to chase, it would be hard to catch up.

“Everyone rest for a while; we’ll set off later.” Seeing many faces showing exhaustion, Ye Xuan also announced a halt to the march, ordering a rest.

Upon the order, the army also stopped. The battle followed by a long assault naturally consumed a lot of the soldiers’ stamina.

“Lord, how did you get the key from the Demon Clan’s camp?”

Ba Zhuo looked at Ye Xuan incredulously, finding it hard to believe that Ye Xuan could obtain the task item they and the Demon Clan were fighting over from deep within the Demon Clan camp.

“The key is not the only one; the Demon Clan should have one too now.”

Ye Xuan shook his head and said faintly.

“Not the only one?”

The two were stunned. Just when they were about to ask further, suddenly, the forest in front exploded, and arrows suddenly shot out.

Puff puff puff!

Caught off guard, more than a dozen soldiers were hit by the arrows, their bodies nailed to the ground, killed on the spot.

After this scene unfolded, other soldiers also reacted. However, denser arrows came shooting; these were not ordinary arrows but spirit arrows empowered by Spirit Crystals, with formidable power and pressure.

“Enemy attack!”

Figures jumped up, and startled cries spread from everywhere.

“The Demon Clan caught up so quickly?”

Luo Qing’s face was also full of surprise. They had clearly shaken off the Demon Clan’s troops. How could they follow so stealthily to launch such a dense and orderly terrifying offensive?

“It’s not the Demon Clan’s troops.”

A gleam appeared in Ye Xuan’s eyes. His gaze pierced through the forest ahead, seeing the figure hidden beyond the woods.

“Heh, kid, got lucky, huh? You managed to get the Night Key before us.”

Between the trees, a figure slowly walked out, accompanied by a somewhat sharp voice. When the figure’s face appeared, it was none other than the Four-Star Commander, Qiu Xing.

“Bastard! How dare you attack your own people!”

Ba Zhuo was furious. The Divine Demon Battlefield strictly forbade internal conflicts within camps, so he unexpectedly thought it was the Demon Clan’s pursuing troops.

“Our own people?”

Qiu Xing grinned, somewhat mocking, “You actually regard us as your own? Seems like you’re a fool.”

“You!”

Ba Zhuo was speechless with anger.

“Commander Qiu, is this what you’re up to? At your strength, I doubt you have the ability to take anything from me.”

Ye Xuan, however, wasn’t panicked. He just glanced at those slaughtered soldiers, his gaze slightly somber.

“Just by myself, I might indeed not be very confident, but I’m someone who always likes to find powerful helpers; it’s much easier than acting alone.”

Qiu Xing’s mouth curved into a strange smile. The next moment, from among those soldiers, a path was cleared, and a middle-aged man in a golden thunder robe walked out.

This person looked unfamiliar, but his aura was extraordinarily strong, reaching the level of a Fifth Grade Martial Saint.

“It’s Thunder City Lord, Lei Qianzhang!”

Someone exclaimed, their face changed drastically, recognizing this person in the golden thunder robe.

Thunder City Lord, a renowned figure, someone at the Fifth Grade Martial Saint level. No one expected him to appear here.

Many soldiers looked grim; that Lei Qianzhang would collude with Qiu Xing like this.

“Hand over the Night Key. With your strength, you’re not qualified to have it.”

Lei Qianzhang stared at Ye Xuan, speaking with the tone of a superior to a subordinate.

“Whether I’m qualified isn’t something a despicable lowlife like you can decide.”

Ye Xuan replied indifferently.

Whoa.

Qiu Xing’s expression was somewhat amused. This guy dared to provoke Lei Qianzhang at such a moment; really doesn’t know the immensity of heaven and earth.

“Sharp-tongued brat.” Lei Qianzhang’s face remained calm, seemingly not angered by Ye Xuan, only slightly nodding, then slowly extended his long hands out of his sleeves. In his ten fingers, arcs of lightning began to jump up.

“You will regret it.”

Boom!

Almost instantly, like a storm, dazzling lightning light surged from Lei Qianzhang’s body, and in that brilliance, a vast torrent of True Yuan spread out.

The entire world, at this moment, gleamed with flashing lightning, vibrant and colorful.

But under that radiance, a deadly aura surged.

Evidently, this Thunder City Lord truly began to harbor a killing intent towards Ye Xuan.

“Sigh.”

Ye Xuan looked at the astonishing formation in front of him, took a deep breath, and his face gradually became serious. Then, his skin began to exhibit a metallic luster.

Roar!

A low and ancient-sounding dragon roar resonated quietly within Ye Xuan, moving with an unprecedented majestic power, surging like a flood.

Boom.

With a sudden tight clench of his fists, Ye Xuan’s pitch-black pupils also became unusually sharp at this moment. Dragon wings unfolded; the Rain Saint Sword unsheathed, and his aura was pushed to the extreme.

“Want to destroy me? I’m afraid even if you’re a Fifth Grade Martial Saint, you don’t have the capability!”
