Chapter 602 - Who is it?

Translator: Aran

Although the old man was not strong, shackled by formation chains and severely wounded, when he spoke there was a mysterious strength.

His voice was not loud, but every word was like a clap of thunder, resounding across the sky and a vast, majestic light aura diffusing in the air.

On the public plaza.

The nearly one hundred thousand figures, at this moment, felt as thoughsome sort of heated object was burning frantically in their chest.

The countless lowered heads were slowly lifted.

An atmosphere that gradually altered the Demon Spiders’ countenance began to spread across the public plaza.

Chen Zhengliang and his lackeys, for a moment, were also impacted by the old man's imposing manner. Their complexion changed rapidly, and they knew not what to say and frozen where they stood.

At this moment——

“Haha, a saint of the Human Race?”

A mocking laughed echoed.

Sitting on the higher observatory platform, the Heaven Devouring Demon General slowly rose to his feet, his huge body like a deadly giant creature emerging from the demon abyss.

As if the Devouring Heaven Demon General had heard a huge joke, there was undisguised contempt across his face.

“Saint? Old dog, are you dreaming? Ahaha, what era are we in, a lowly declining race like the Human Race will have a saint emerge?” Devouring Heaven Demon General burst into mocking laughter, pointing to the tens of thousands of people on the public square, like they were corpses and animals, then continued in a contemptuous tone. “Old dog, open your eyes to see. The hundreds of thousands of people in Flowing Light City are standing in a circle and watching, like a group of dogs that have had their backbones broken. Haha, they are apathetically watching you being tortured. From the start till now was there anyone that said a word to you, was there anyone that looked you in the eye? They are nothing but a group of lowly slaves, not worthy of sharing the land and resources of Clear River Domain with the noble Demon Race.”

The old man's complexion grew more and more calm when he heard this.

He calmly smiled and gasped for breath before slowly said, “They are not resisting to preserve the tinder for the Human Race to continue to exist. Although they have not looked up, but the flames of freedom are burning in their heart... This is only to preserve strength, the Human Race will never give in! One day, you will be defeated by the Human Race that you despise so much. Even if my blood splatter across the sky today, they will still see the sun for me, it will be bright and dazzling, without demons!”

Each word was sonorous, like echoing clang of swords striking.

The old man’s scar ridden body, at this moment, in the eyes of countless people, seemed as huge as a towering mountain, that they had to look up at him.

Before his voice faded.

The atmosphere that pervaded the crowd of nearly one hundred thousand people became more and more obvious.

Countless people who kept their head hung low, suddenly gritted their teeth and clenched their fists tightly until their knuckles were white.

The fury and sadness in the eyes of the crowd was more evident.

Devouring Heaven Demon General took on a sudden change of expression, violent evil spirit diffusing out from his body.

He cast a gloomy look over and said, “Old dog, in a moment you will know what is utter misery, lets see how long your old bones can last... Execution!”

“Yes.” Chen Zhengliang bowed immediately.

Turning around, a sinister and ruthless smile formed on the traitor’s face.

“Go, first cut that old thing’s tongue off!” Chen Zhangliang directed at the black-moled lackey next to him.

“Hehe, watch me.” The black moled lackey, who was finally given a rare opportunity to show off was overjoyed.

He gave an evil grin, then took out the ox-ear blade that he had prepared earlier, moving closer to the old man, directing the reflected sword light at the old man's face, and then grabbed the old man's hair and plunged the dagger right into his chest.

The old man did not fight back.

There was a small commotion in the crowd below, and many of them closed their eyes and dared not directly look at the cruel scene.

Ye Qingyu's eyes flashed, and was about to make a move, when an unexpected change happened once again.

Swoosh!

A beam of dark light burst out from the crowd.

Puchi!

The light pierced the black-moled man’s chest!

It was a two-meter-long black spear, skewering through the black blotches lackey’s body, and continued through another lackey, like a sweet skewer…

Boom!

The spear finally stabbed into a boulder at the back of the execution platform.

The spear body penetrated half a meter into the boulder.

The two lackeys were nailed to the boulder.

“I... pff...” It wasn't until now that the black-moled lackey took on a look of shock, as though unable to understand what had just happened.

He spurted out a mouthful of blood and subconsciously looked down at his chest, only to see a black spear pierced through his body., Only after did he finally react. Immediately, there was panic and despair across his face, and a low roar began at his throat. But his voice would not come forth and the next moment that evil- and hideous-looking head dropped to the ground.

“Huh?”

Ye Qingyu was slightly astonished.

What just happened?

Someone had made a move before him?

Who was it?

While he was puzzling over what happened, the crowd finally reacted. The sudden assassination and the splash of blood made many ordinary people scream out sharply. Everywhere were startled cries, and the crowd also could not hold back from creating a disturbance on the public square. Some people shrieked, some frantically stepped back, and some were rooted to the spot with fear.

The next moment——

Swoosh swoosh swoosh!

Dozens of dark shadows shuttled through the crowd like flashes of lightning, and instantaneously descended on the execution platform.

“Kill!”

“First save the people.”

“Quickly save Elder Zheng... I'll deal with those bastards.”

A brief, short conversation sounded from several people.

They landed on the execution platform, moving rapidly and with a clear division of labour, and immediately launched the rescue operation. It was evidently well planned beforehand.

The execution platform immediately turned into a scene of chaos.

Battlecries resounded.

While the lackeys, headed by Chen Zhenliang, were already pretty strong, but caught off guard, they still suffered heavy injuries.

The kindest man of Flowing Light City, Elder Zheng, was the first one to be saved.

“It's them!”

When Ye Qingyu saw the shadows of these people, he was slightly astonished.

The rescue team that bolted across to save the prisoners were all familiar faces that he had seen in the inn before. The leaders were the husband and wife of South Facing Inn, and the remaining more than ten people were refugees that took shelter in the South Facing Inn!

Ye Qingyu had never once thought that the people he saw in the inn were experts.

But why was it that he could not see through their martial arts cultivation level?

It really was strange.

On the execution platform.

The gentle pale-faced boss, at this moment, seemed to have changed into another person, being shrouded in a fierce killing intent.

He was clasping a writing brush in one hand, that under the activation of yuan qi, flickered, and the originally half-a-foot brush enlarged several times, to at least one meter long and to the thickness of an arm.

A dangerous aura emanated from the one-meter-long brush.

The spear-like brush could create paintings, the specks of ink in a split second had sent five or six traitor soldiers collapsing as blood spurted from their mouth.

“Light Ink Becomes the Soul of a Thousand Beasts!”

With a clear roar, the innkeeper waved his giant brush about in the air.

His moves were incredibly strange and impressive at the same time. As though the air was a canvas, in the blink of the eye, ten vivid and life-like ink-coloured beasts emerged in the sky.

“Go!” The innkeeper thrust his palm out.

The ink-coloured beast glowed, instantly coming to life, and darting over to the human lackeys and Demon Race soldiers on the execution platform that were guarding the prisoner carts

The execution platform fell into chaos again.

In the blink of the eye, dozens of traitors and soldiers were killed, their screams reverberating across the stage.

“Stop them!!!”

Chan Zhengliang, seeing that the situation did not look too good, cried out in distress.

Among all the traitor lackeys, he was the strongest. With the wave of his right hand, he drew a silver flexible sword from the jade belt at his waist.

The silver flexible sword was like a spiritual snake dancing in the air, the sword intent that filled the air and the cold killing intent had closed in on the innkeeper.

The innkeeper burst out laughing, swinging the giant brush in the air to deflect Chen Zhenliang’s attack.

In the chaos, the young and beautiful lady boss attracted the most attention.

Her strength was not at all inferior to the young innkeeper, her fair, jade-like hand lifted into the air in an extremely graceful motion, then flipped over to pull a simple, silver hairpin from her hair bun. Swaying in the wind, the hairpin erupted in a blaze of light as it transformed into a glowing icy-cold sword.

“Kill!” The soft yell was as beautiful sounding as jade plates struck against each other. The green sword was like a spiritual snake dancing in the void.

Sword intent spread unhindered across the air, ending all lives.

Wherever the sword qi passed by, countless willow leaf-like green yuan qi blades were left behind in the void, shooting toward the ten prisoners chained to the execution platform.

The next moment, the light blue-green yuan qi blades effortlessly hacked the chain like cutting through tofu.

Another martial artist darted over, immediately supporting the prisoners up.

Below the platform.

Ye Qingyu's mood was suddenly elevated.

The Human Race no longer had to keep their heads low.

Along the way, he had seen too many repulsive sights, too many hideous faces, but then in this world there were, after all, courageous and kind people, such as Elder Zheng, such as the innkeeper and his wife and the others. When the earth is shrouded in darkness, there will always be some people that will adhere to their principles and the bottom line. Even if their strength was not enough, even if they were like moths flying into a flame, they still bravely and with no thought for their own safety sent out a warm glow, was that not right?

Ye Qingyu's heavy heart these days was suddenly lifted.

During the chaos, and as all eyes and attention were drawn to the execution platform, something unexpected happened again.

Boom!

From the square-shaped formation of prisoner carts at the side of the execution platform came a sudden explosion!

A strong man chained to the formation chain, suddenly broke free with a burst of tyrannical blade qi.

In this moment, a golden blade light broke out from the body of the strong man, like a peerless sword, and all over his body was an incomparably piercing sharp aura being emitted. And with a clear and thunderous roar, beams of matchless blade qi resembling streams of flowing light came shooting out at all directions, extremely fast.

“Ah...”

“No!”

“Pff!”

Miserable shrieks sounded.

The demon elites that were guarding the prisoner carts had never thought that the powerful formation chains that were enough to trap Heaven Ascension experts would shatter like that. Caught off guard, the dozens of demon soldiers were instantly split into fragments of corpses, demonic blood splattered and dropped to the ground like wheats under the sickle of a farmer.

“You...” The demon elite captain’s strength was slightly stronger, and just able to block the attack.

But before he could say anything, a yuan qi sword had severed him into two at the waist.

The blade was too fast.

The feeling of pain was not even felt.

He finally saw the true face of the attacker, as if he had just seen a ghost.

Scar-faced Jin.

This skillful attacker that had blade light enveloped all over his body was unexpectedly the butcher treated as a resister and locked up as a result from defending the old man, Scar-faced Jin!

No one would have thought that the butcher that did not reveal the slightest yuan qi, after a sudden change, had become a skillful sword expert.

It was an assassination.

In a state of confusion, the officers still could not understood what had just happened.

“Rescue them.”

Scar-faced Jin thundered.

The look of his eyes was resolute and calm, and as he swung out the yuan qi sword, its sword qi moved right through unhindered, instantly beheading dozens of demon guards.

Out of the blue, the demon soldiers that guarded the prisoner carts were in turmoil.

Especially after the captain of the army was killed, the remaining demon spider soldiers went blank and came to a halt.

The more elite the soldiers, the more they required command and directions; this sort of response was rooted deep in their blood and bones.

As the Demon Spider Race were blank and confused, from the increasingly chaotic crowd, there was another group of lightning-like shadows darting toward the prisoner carts. After a brief series of onslaught, almost in the shortest time possible, the Demon Spider elite soldiers guarding the prisoner carts were all killed.

The entire course of events was too much for the eyes to take in.

Ye Qingyu turned his head to look to this side.

At first glance, he was greatly astonished.

Because he had never once thought that the people who took the lead to break through the prisoner carts in cooperation with Scar-faced Jin, were also acquaintances——

The crippled old man and the blind girl!

During the two times that Ye Qingyu visited Flowing Light City, he had seen this father and daughter in the inn, and did not find the slightest fluctuation of martial artist yuan qi, nor felt that the pitiful father and daughter, who sang for a living, were martial experts.

But now, everything was overturned.

In the distance.

The crippled old man's originally weak body soared to the sky, his imposing manner was piercing sharp like that of a fierce beast.

The mahogany fiddle in his hand exuded a faint halo of light. He strummed the strings with his left hand, and gently pulled the bow with his right. The strings slightly quivered, and a silent sound wave came crashing towards the demon soldiers guarding the prisoners like a monstrous wave.

The sound waves were carrying a mysterious and strange power. Where it passed, the Demon Spider soldiers felt a buzz ringing in their ears, uneasy, and the confusion in their eyes was increasingly obvious.

And the blind girl who was like a kitten curled up in her father's arms yesterday, still with a dirty face as before, as if a layer of ash was across her face, and her eyes were still big and lifeless. Wisps of grey mist emerged from the bottom of her eyes, and at the same time, the aroma of the palm-sized apricot blossom pattern sachet in her hand was growing more intense than before.

The girl gently loosened the threads on the sachet, a hint of apricot mist slowly gushed out from the sachet.

Her slender little hand gently fanned a few times in the void, and the faint apricot-coloured mist wafted in the direction of the demon army.

As the faint apricot-coloured mist drifted to the Demon Spider soldiers, their movement also slowed.

The group of Demon Spider soldiers was both frightened and shocked at the same time, their limbs gradually paralyzed, and eventually they lost control of their body.

As for the thirtyodd human experts, they were more and more courageous as the battle progressed, like entering into a place where there was no one! Charging straight ahead with irresistible force, they broke up the formation of the Demon Spider soldiers in less than a few seconds.

In a twinkling, the imprisoned heroes were almost all rescued.

Things went very well.

……

On the observatory platform.

Devouring Heaven Demon General was sitting quietly and calmly.

Whether it was the black-moled lackey kicked flying, the innkeeper and other people charging onto the execution platform, or even Scar-faced Jin rose up in revolt and coordinated with the father and daughter to almost wipe out the demon spider soldiers that were guarding the prisoner carts and rescued the people inside, this commander of the Devouring Heaven Camp had not displayed the slightest panic or anger.

He narrowed his eyes.

Within the scarlet pupils was a faint mocking expression flickering.

He slightly curved his mouth, full of a merciless intent.

In fact, not only the Devouring Heaven Demon General, even the deputy general next to him, as well as the strange white-clothed twins all had not responded with any action.

As if everything that happened on the field had nothing to do with them.

They stood quietly, like a group of passers-by watching a play.

……

On the public plaza.

The almost one hundred thousand people that had fallen into chaos.

Ye Qingyu finally recovered from his initial shock.

Right away, he noticed the strange stillness of the experts of the Demon Spider Race.

It was absolutely not a normal scene.

Hu Bugui also furrowed his brows in puzzlement.

The two people exchanged a glance, shaking their head at the same time, and held back their plan to attack.

Because they sensed that the matter today was not as simple as it looked on the surface.

The Demon Spider Race must have a backup plan.

……

On the execution platform.

The innkeeper and his wife and the other companions had saved all the people dragged onto the execution platform and completely wiped out the henchmen that rushed over to stop them, only Chen Zhengliang luckily survived. However, he had sustained an injury to his abdomen, blood dyed his robe red, frightened out of his senses and did not dare to fight again. He turned and bolted to the Devouring Heaven Demon General...

“General, save me!”

Chen Zhengliag like a stray dog, crawled over to where the Devouring Heaven Demon General sat to beg for help.

The innkeeper did not try to catch up. Instead, he swung his foot and kicked up a truncated sword on the ground, sending it flying toward Chen Zhengliang’s back.

But Zheng Zhengliang evaded and bolted faster than before.

“Don't chase a cornered enemy, it’s more important to save the people,” the beautiful lady owner reminded in a low voice.

The innkeeper stopped his steps when he heard this, glanced over at the Devouring Heaven Demon General in the distance, a trace of fear flickering in his eyes, and finally gave up chasing after Chen Zhengliang. “We let that bastard off too lightly... Xiaoge, send a signal, tell the brothers outside to attack, cover us to bring people out.”

The beautiful lady boss nodded, taking out an object from her bosom to throw into the sky.

Swoosh!

Flowing light filled the sky

The dim void where snow was swirling in the air was suddenly lit up.

The next second.

Boom!

In the southern side of the public plaza was a violent force erupting.

An earthquake-like shaking began at the public plaza.

And then, just thousands of meters away, a team of Demon Spider soldiers in the most south of the square was exploded away. A gap suddenly opened up at the edge of the heavily guarded square, and then, hundreds of human experts, all in the same armour, came charging in from the outside, launching into battle with the Demon Spider experts...

“Go!”

The innkeeper thundered, leading the people toward the crowd on the plaza.

On the other side.

The father-daughter pair also led the rest of the people, while defending the heroes, towards the south of the public square.

“It's our Human Race, get out of the way, save these heroes.”

Scar-faced Jin roared.

His voice, like a clap of thunder, resounded across the void.

The hundreds of thousands of people on the public square, who seemed confused, upon hearing such a roar, hurriedly stepped back, separating out a long path that led to the south of the square.

“Run!”

The innkeeper and the others rose with force and spirit.

A group of people was about to charge.

When at this time——

“Kekekeke... you want to leave like that?”

An incomparably grim voice sounded from the higher observatory platform.

The Devouring Heaven Demon General who was sitting on the higher observatory platform, expressionless all along, finally slowly stood up, his mouth curving with a contempt and cruel smile.

Before the voice faded.

WoWoWo——!

The bugle horn rang like a long howl from an ancient beast.

In the void, suddenly there were dark red ripples flashing, and the four deputy generals standing at Devouring Heaven Demon Generals side had come to the air hundred meters away from the ground, divided into four positions. There was a terrifying peak Heaven Ascension stage aura surging from their bodies, like four ancient unscalable mountains, crushing the air, and a dark red demonic patterned net, like a ferocious demon snake, began to spread from under their feet, almost covering the upper void of the whole square...

Damn, it, its the [Spider Silk Soul Destroying Net]!

The innkeeper, upon seeing this scene, immediately cried out in surprise.

Quickly run, don't get caught in this formation, otherwise no one will be able to escape. Scar-faced Jin also had a sudden huge change of expression, his eyes revealing his annoyance.

The martial artists that came to the rescue were all quite strong, the lowest was in the Bitter Sea boundary. Their movements and action were already very rapid, coming and going like the wind, but the nearly hundred people that they saved all had their cultivation sealed, seriously injured, and moved with inconvenience. As a result it was really difficult to bring them along.

But

Rumble!

Another series of cannon shots like an invitation from death sounded.

The vibration around was like thunder rumbling. Looking at the ruins in the distance beyond the public square, huge demon beasts emerged one by one, Demon Spider Race cavalries like a black current engulfed over and the ground was also quaking. Suddenly, this black cavalry tide had surrounded the huge square once again. Whether it was the former Demon Spider elite soldiers or the rescue team, they were all surrounded.

The situation, at this moment, had taken an abrupt turn.

Hahaha, a bunch of stupid things, actually want to save people in the hands of my Devouring Heaven camp?

The Devouring Heaven Demon Generals icy cold voice, like that of the god of death, echoed between heaven and earth.

ClangClangClang

The Demon Spider cavalries that surrounded the periphery were numerous and close together like a black current. The huge ferocious demon beasts on horses and the tall Demon Spider cavalries heavily struck their shields with their spears, and the tens of thousands of clanging metal combined into one, like a raging tide, sent chills down ones spine.

The innkeeper and others also all had a change of countenance.

Their plan was already considered very secretive.

Including Scar-faced Jins cover, the backup support were all thought about.

But they did not expect the Demon Spider Race, as though had already predicted all this, would make such preparations.

Gazing at the [Spider Silk Soul Destroying Net] formation about to close, everyone was burning with anxiety, and frantically rushed towards the periphery.

But the Demon Spider army's counterattack also, at this moment, finally descended.

Hundreds of black figures, like lightning descended from the demonic clouds in the sky, blocked the inn owner and other peoples way.

Black-coloured armours and steel blades.

These were the elites of the Demon Spider Race army, the real elites selected from thousands.

Their swords were unsheathed.

Their blades flashed like lightning.

The rescuer experts immediately felt an enormous pressure.

This had undoubtedly made the situation more hopeless.

If they wanted to run again, they will be blocked by these elite soldiers and won't be able to escape.

Quickly run, ignore us... Elder Zheng anxiously yelled out.

Some of the other rescued people were beginning to struggle too.

Brothers, go, leave us old and weak, even if we escape, we are crippled, you shouldn't have come to save us.

Uncle, my meridians have been crippled, its useless... Mother and father are dead, I also cannot live, I cannot be a burden to you, let me die, hurry leave. The child that said the Human Race does not give in shouted loudly, knocking into a boulder but was dragged back by Scar-faced Jin.

Today we came to save you, we will all survive together, if we cannot save you guys, then we will die together. Scar-faced Jin laughed heartily, looking at the other companions around, and said in a more heroic voice, Brothers, give our lives for righteousness today, even if we die under a sword, we leave the sweet fragrance of chivalry! Kill!

The blade light soared, charging into the enemy, in order to open up a path.

Capture the leader first in order to capture all the followers!

The innkeeper roared, unexpectedly turned around, turning into a stream of flowing light and charged toward the direction of the Devouring Heaven Demon General.

Thats right, we will cover for you, Scar-faced Jin, take everyone and leave. The crippled old man understood the innkeepers intention, he turned his erhu and strummed the strings, transforming into a stream of flowing light and darted toward Devouring Heaven Demon General.

The young and beautiful lady boss and the blind woman followed closely behind.

If they could kill the Devouring Heaven Demon General, or just seriously wound him, that would throw the Demon Spider army into chaos and may give everyone a chance to survive.

But

Reckless!

Devouring Heaven Demon General wore a contemptuous look on his face, raised his hand, and then pulled out an evil-spirit-emitting blade in a backhand motion.

The blade flashed.

He administered a vertical strike across the air.

A black demonic qi came gushing out the blade with earth-shattering force.

Boom!

In the midst of the deafening noise, a terrifying yuan qi power burst forth.

The pupils of the innkeeper and the other three people were suddenly dilated.

After a roar, an ink-coloured demon beast was scattered in the air, the brush in the innkeepers hand began to crack, the blue-green dragon restored to its real form of a green hairpin broken into two, the silver sword qi was dispersed by the demonic qi, the crippled old mans erhu strings snapped, the apricot blossoms withered, turning into ashes, and the apricot embroidery on the blind girl's sachet also suddenly faded.

High up in the air, the life weapons of the innkeeper and other three people were completely destroyed, and their bodies also suffered an impact, falling from the sky like a kite!

It was just a blow, but it destroyed all obstacles in its way.

𝐟𝚛𝕖𝚎𝕨𝗲𝐛𝚗𝐨𝐯𝐞𝕝.𝐜𝗼𝗺

The innkeeper and the other three were instantly defeated, sent flying back into the crowd.

Mister... someone exclaimed, hurrying over to help them.

The Devouring Heaven Demon General stood firmly on the platform, with no intention of giving chase.

Clang.

And even sheathed his blade.

Bring them alive, I want to kill them each slowly, so that all the people know what the result would be for those that go against my Demon Spider Race.

A voice, cold as the words from death, burst out from the mouth of the commander of Devouring Heaven camp.

At this moment, the temperature around the huge square plummeted.

Under the attack of hundreds of Demon Spider elites, the innkeeper and the other people were constantly being compressed. Never mind counterattacking, even defending themselves became incredibly difficult.

The atmosphere was more and more hopeless.

On the Devouring Heaven Demon Generals face, there was a cruel and ferocious smile blossoming.

He was like a fisherman overflowing with a murderous intent, as he was slowly collecting the nets, he already began to think about how to slaughter the fishes in the net.

But at this time, there was another change.

All of a sudden!

The spaces around the Devouring Heaven Demon General began to twist, and a beam of icy cold light as swift as a sudden clap of thunder penetrated his chest!

His expression took on an abrupt change, and in the midst of a muffled noise, a jet of blood spurted from his chest.

How dare you to plot against me... you, get the hell out.

Infuriated, there was an ominous glint in the Devouring Heaven Demon Generals eyes, the demonic flame in his palm soared, making a grabbing motion in the air.

Che

There was a muffled sound in the void.

The next moment, where Devouring Heaven Demon Generals palm was in the void, a figure gradually grew clearer.

The crowd gasped in disbelief.

Its him!

How would it be him!

It's Chen Zhengliang!

Is he not a lackey of the Demon Spider Race, why would he assassinate the Demon Spider Race?

The one held in the hand of Devouring Heaven Demon General was the defeated lackey Chen Zhengliang!

Devouring Heaven Demon Generals tremendous hand was wrapped around the head of Chen Zhengliang, a look of astonishment across his face.

He did not think that the one who launched a sneak attack on him was this cowardly trash.

So its you!

In the Devouring Heaven Demon Generals eyes was a terrifying scarlet flame flashing, evidently enraged. His chest shook, an invisible demon flame yuan qi screeched, and the faint chill-emitting dagger was slowly forced out from the wound.

Klang

The dagger tainted with the Devouring Heaven Demon Generals blood dropped to the ground, and in the blink of an eye corroded into a pool of molten iron.

The chest area of the black armour was left with a hole the size of a date.

Very good, I am beginning to appreciate you, so you have been abasing yourself just for this moment? Keke, unfortunately, your strength is not good enough, even if it was a sneak attack, you still cant kill me... Keke, however, I have not been injured for a long time, you are the first human to wound me in this hundred years, Devouring Heaven Demon General said coldly.

Chen Zhengliangs head was fully restrained, and with the slightest force, Devouring Heaven Demon General could easily crush his head, and destroy his consciousness.

But his face was without a trace of panic and fear.

But there was just a tinge of regret.

It's a pity I cant kill you, Chen Zhengliang said in an incomparably regretful tone of voice. And that I also cannot save my brothers and sisters!

Hahaha, kill me? Just you alone? The Devouring Heaven Demon Generals fingers were slowly tightening, Chen Zhengliangs neck was gradually being distorted and his complexion began to turn blue. The Devouring Heaven Demon Generals hand was pointing to below the execution platform. Just with these defeated people?

As he was speaking, his line of sight shifted to the southern direction where the ruins of the City Lords residence was.

There, the hundreds of experts that came to help were all surrounded by Demon Spider elites. If it was not for the fact that the ruthless Devouring Heaven Demon General wanted to torture before killing them, these nearly hundred people would have been wiped out.

He laughed scornfully, looking down at the distorted head of Chen Zhengliang that was about to be crush and asked coldly, Or the group idiots in the southern direction?

When Chen Zhengliang heard these words he looked to the south, gently closing his eyes.

He had evidently accepted such a fate.

The Human Race is in peril, I die for a good cause, I have no regrets. One day, a saint of the Human Race will quell the evil of the world!

Devouring Heaven Demon General burst out laughing when he heard what was said, like hearing the most unbelievable joke, Haha, the saint of the Human Race? The saint of the Human Race again? What a huge joke! It is as easy for me to kill you as crushing an ant. A small ant unexpectedly imagines the wildest things. Let me send you on your road, to find that the Human Race saint in the afterworld!

After these words, the Devouring Heaven General slowly applied force to his hand.

Chen Zhengliang silently trembled with pain.

In a distant place.

Upon seeing this scene, the eyes of the innkeeper and others were cracking.

Brother Zhengliang... The innkeeper roared in anger, but could not do anything.

Only a few of them were aware of Chen Zhengliangs true identity.

This chess piece was placed early on when the city was breached.

The combined attack of the Innkeeper and the others before was just a cover, the real attacker was Chen Zhengliang.

As long as Chen Zhengliang was able to kill or heavily wound the Devouring Heaven Demon General, there will be a turning point and hope in today's matter.

It's just that...

What a pity.

They were defeated when victory was within reach.

Chen Zhengliang heaved a long sigh, Brother Ling, I am sorry... hahahahaha. I have the mind to kill villains, but lack strength to reverse the situation. How? How?

With that, he shut his eyes and awaited death.

Heavens, the masters of my Human Race, where are they, why have they not appeared. The Innkeeper known as Brother Ling, watching his brother about to be killed tragically while they had not been able to rescue the hundreds of heroes, he finally could not help the tears coursing down his face and let out a long sigh facing the sky, Blood is flowing like a river, why has the Human Race saint not appeared? Why does a great man of the Human Race have to die like this...

Could this really be the death of Flowing Light City? Elder Zheng also had tears coursing down his cheeks.

Despair.

Immense despair surrounded them all.

Haha... Upon seeing this scene, Devouring Heaven Demon General had greatly satisfied his abnormal mentality, wildly laughed, The saint of the Human Race? He is dead. Haha, now Clear River Domain already belongs to the Demon Spider Race. Even if the Human Race saint appears, he will be killed like an ant, hahahaha!

Before his voice faded.

Is that right? A little spider dares insult the saints, you really do not know the immensity of heaven and earth.

A piercing voice suddenly sounded without warning.

The voice was not loud, but was filled with a mysterious force that easily drowned the laughter of the Devouring Heaven Demon General, so that everyone in this huge chaotic square could hear it clearly.

The blood-coloured pupils of the Devouring Heaven Demon General were suddenly shrinking.

The innkeeper and the others below were also astonished.

Before there was a response.

Swoosh.

A lightning-like figure shot out of the crowd.

In a flash, the figure came to before the Devouring Heaven Demon General, throwing a thunderous punch.

What?

Devouring Heaven Demon Generals complexion wildly changed, when he felt that this punch contained an indefensible force. Before the fist shadow had arrived, a tyrannical force had already made him feel suffocated.

It was too fast and too strong.

Caught off guard, the Devouring Heaven Demon General could not evade in time and was unable to draw his sword.

One hand wrapped around Chen Zhengliangs head, he could only punch and fight back with his other hand.

Boom boom boom!

Lights flashed, and in the twinkle of an eye, innumerable punches were thrown out.

Like the wrath of heaven, qi spread to everywhere, and the surrounding Demon Spider Race experts were sent flying while vomiting blood. Devouring Heaven Demon General only felt his wrist going numb and could not even see the opponent's face. He did not give any other reaction, but could only instinctively continue to punch out, wanting to curb the opponents endless fist force.

At the same time, he was frantically retreating and wanting to pull away.

But everything was futile.

This moment of danger and crisis made Devouring Heaven Demon General feel as if he was drawn into the eye of the storm. He could only punch out and retreat further and further.

Under his opponents mad attacks, he didn't even have time to pull back his hand that was holding Chen Zhengliang.

This was absolutely his first time seeing this sort of frightening pressure.

The unending and uninterrupted fist force that was like the setting sun on a long river was too oppressive, that Devouring Heaven Demon General almost suffocated, and even his sight blurred.

The tremendous pressure made his mind go blank, and he even lost the ability to think.

All the reactions of his body at this moment were the instincts of an Immortal Step expert.

It was unknown when those flash flood-like punches opposite finally stopped.

The Devouring Heaven Demon General, with great difficulty, opened his mouth. He had lost count of how many steps he had moved back, and felt as though even his consciousness were shattered in his body, and that his body seemed to not belong to him.

The crowd that stared in stunned silence suddenly broke into exclamations.

Red Devil Captain suddenly sharply screamed like he had seen a ghost, General, your arm...

Devouring Heaven Demon General subconsciously looked toward his left arm.

The left arm was missing.

The left arm that was holding the head of Chen Zhengliang, the one that could decide the fate of the Human Race with one thought, had unexpectedly been severed from the shoulder.

A layer of pale silver frost was diffusing from the fractured place, so there was not the slightest pain.

Indescribable shock and fear submerged the Devouring Heaven Demon General.

He shook his head, sight gradually restored to normal, and looked up.

Opposite.

In the air ten meters away from the ground.

A slightly fat body stood in the air.

The mans hand was holding Chen Zhengliang by the shoulder, the other hand carrying a severed arm.

The Devouring Heaven Demon Generals arm was severed
