Chapter 58: Ah Chuan is Here!

With a flash, Liu Qiyue appeared beside Dean Zhong Qianhe. They joined forces to pin down the two terrifying demon commanders.

Dean, Liu Qiyue said in a low voice. The special flame is very draining on my Quintessential Energy. I can only fire another 80 arrows at most.

Dean Zhong wasnt surprised. Liu Qiyue was only at the late-stage of the Mortal Shedding realm. It was difficult for her to maintain the Phoenix Divine Bodys abilities.

Dont be anxious. Well try our best to stall for time, said Dean Zhong with a voice transmission. We will stall them for as long as we can! As long as the Godfiends win, well be saved.

Yes. Liu Qiyue nodded and shot arrows with all her might.

You can shoot slower, said Dean Zhong with a voice transmission. Ill use my full strength. Just support me. As long as we can hold back the two commanders, thats enough.

Okay. Liu Qiyue was extremely solemn.

We cant delay. Any delay might lead to unforeseen circumstances. Perhaps, a Godfiend might come to save this human woman who has awakened her phoenix bloodline, said Commander Wyrm with a voice transmission to his companion. We have to be fast. As long as we capture this human woman alive, we will immediately send her back to Nine Convocation fief and offer her to the Mountain Lord.

Yes, youre right. As long as we capture this woman, sacrificing all the demons under us will be worth it. Commander Ox agreed as well. The demons followed the law of the jungle and thought nothing of the ordinary demons beneath them. In fact, these brutal and bloody battles were something the demons were pleased to see. A brutal battle would cause many weak demons to die and also temper the powerful demons.

Wasnt it good to save on food while grooming the strong if more died?

Therefore, the human Godfiends that presided over important city passes would often encounter demon attacks.

Charge! The two of us will hold back the two sharpshooters. Destroy this Blazing Sun Castle! Commander Ox roared.

Charge, destroy Blazing Sun Castle! Commander Wyrm gave the same order.

Kill!

Kill!

Kill!

Immediately, a group of demon lieutenant commanders charged forward with a large number of demons. When the two armies gathered, their numbers increased greatly. Liu Qiyue and Dean Zhong were busy holding back the two commanders. This made it easy for the lieutenant commanders. In just a few seconds, they rushed to the bottom of Blazing Sun Castle.

The dense horde of demons immediately leaped up towards the windows.

Fire! Large bolts shot out from the windows and penetrated the demons bodies. However, there were too many demons. Some managed to jump up to the windows.

Brothers, charge! A large group of human experts was inside the castle. They blocked the demons that were flooding in through the windows.

The battle at Blazing Sun Dao Academy had entered a brutal melee fight!

One demon after another charged in. There were even lieutenant commanders leading the charge. The moment the lieutenant commanders struck out with their axes, the ballistae exploded. The soldiers and disciples who were operating the ballistae were sent flying backward as blood splattered everywhere. They were instantly killed.

Kill! The human experts held the terrain advantage. Thanks to the windows, they could fight numbers that exceeded theirs. They killed demon after demon. The demons fell to the ground.

When Dean Zhong saw this cruel scene, his eyelids twitched, and he immediately ordered, Light up the fire beacon and release the smoke.

Yes. Immediately, one of the lecturers responded and went to light the fire beacon.

Lighting the fire beacon meant that a Dao Academy had reached a dire situation. It wouldnt be long before it was completely destroyed.

Soon, one of the large smoke pipes in Blazing Sun Castle billowed with smokewhich rose into the sky. The entire Eastcalm Prefecture could see it. Whoever had survived in Eastcalm Prefecture knew what this scene meantBlazing Sun Dao Academy was in a desperate situation and was requesting help!

The bloody battle in Blazing Sun Castle continued.

Die. A muscular man wielding a shield and a great-axe chopped down upon a demon lieutenant commander. His body was covered in blood, and his eyes were red. But then, two lieutenant commanders joined forces and charged towards him. A human expert who has comprehended Force. Join forces and kill him.

The advantage the demons had with their overall strength was too great.

The lieutenant commanders were all formidable. The greater demons were comparable to those with Seamless realm bodies. Many of them had reached the Unity realm. Even if humans had the advantage of terrain, they were still suppressed and forced to retreat constantly.

As the number of demons that ascended Blazing Sun Castle increased, the humans began to lose their terrain advantage.

I really cant hold on any longer. Dean Zhong looked at the pale-faced Liu Qiyuewho had used up all her Quintessential Energy. Yet, she had begun desperately casting forbidden spells. He then looked at the human warriorswho were forced to retreatfrantically fending off the demons. Be it the experienced soldiers, the retired soldiers, or the young disciples of the Dao Academy, all of them were using forbidden spells to fight for their lives.

There was no way out. They could only give it their all.

Each one we take down counts. If I can take down two, it will be worth it! A crippled veteran charged forwards and put himself between the Dao Academy disciples and the demons.

Senior Sister Yi, if we survive, will you marry me?

Yes, I promise you.

Dad, Ive killed demons as well. The young disciples also went into a frenzy. They had reached the Marrow Cleansing realm and were considered to have great potential among their generation. However, they had already been forced into a corner.

Tears streamed down their faces as they watched their fellow disciples die in battle. They were also going all out.

Are we still going to lose? Liu Qiyuewho had used forbidden Godfiend spellswas trembling slightly. Dad and Ah Chuan I really want to see them again.

At that moment, Liu Qiyue missed her father terribly as well as Ah Chuan.

As a sharpshooter, Liu Qiyue often used Quintessential Energy to nourish her eyes. This allowed her to see things that were very far away clearly. As she stared at the two demon commanderswho were located far away from Blazing Sun Castlewhile shooting at them, she suddenly noticed a figure clad in lightning charge over.

Thats Liu Qiyue couldnt help but tear up. They grew up together. Although the figure was very fast, she was certain. Ah Chuan! Ah Chuan is here!

Ah Chuan! Liu Qiyue suddenly let out a hiss, her voice sounding a little shrill. Leave! Dont come here! Leave, do you hear me!?

The entire Blazing Sun Dao Academy was in a dire situation. Before the Godfiend realm, it was impossible for mortals to rescue them with their individual strength. In the eyes of almost all mortalsincluding Liu Qiyue and Dean Zhongthe dire situation that Blazing Sun Dao Academy was facing now was only salvageable if a Godfiend came to save them.

Theres a human. The demonswho were still charging forwarddiscovered a lightning-clad figure charging towards them.

How dare you attack our demon army. You must be tempting fate.

Tear him apart.

These demons wouldnt dare to defend against such a fast-moving human in a one-on-one fight. But now that they were two armies combined, they were surrounded by a dense cluster of allies! Their numbers bolstered their confidence. They felt that as long as it wasnt a Godfiend, they would be able to tear anyone apart if they dared to charge in.

Kill him.

Squash him!

A group of demons threw their flying axes or spat out venom. Others spewed threads, attempting to pin Meng Chuan down.

Swoosh!

The lightning-clad figure blurred as it streaked across the sky. Meng Chuan easily avoided many obstacles and charged into the demon horde.

This human really has a death wish. The demons rushed over crazily. Since demons were attacking Blazing Sun Castle, a dense horde of demons surrounded the castle. Instantly, nearly a hundred demons charged towards Meng Chuan with confidence.

Pfft! Pfft! Pfft! Pfft! Pfft! Pfft!

Six dazzling arc-ing saber beams swept across the area. Each beam was dozens of feet long, and their speed terrifying. The demons were packed too close to each other and couldnt dodge in time.

With just six saber beams, he sliced through nearly a hundred demons that had come charging at him. Instantly, the entire area was filled with dismembered demon bodies. This caused the castle siege to falter slightly as many demons couldnt help but look over. After all, the two armies combined numbered about two thousand demons. And nearly a hundred had died in the blink of an eye?

The soldiers, retired veterans, and Dao Academy disciples naturally noticed as well.

They saw a bolt of lightning rapidly charge through the demons. Six blinding saber beams whistled through the air. Many demons were culled like wheat being harvested.

You two deal with the other demons. Leave the two commanders to me. A voice resounded throughout Blazing Sun Dao Academy as the lightning-clad figure headed straight for the two demon commanders.
