Chapter 1446: Tracing the Source
“Go!”
As Liu Ming raised one hand, 8 Mountain River Pearls flew out with dazzling yellow light.
Boom!
8 huge mountains crashed into the group of demon corpses with great power, almost knocking away all the demon corpses that rushed toward them.
2 ancient demon corpses didn’t get hit by the giant mountains, but their momentum was also slowed down by the yellow light.
At this moment, Zhao Qianying made a gesture, and dozens of purple chains spewed out from the purple cauldron, binding the 2 ancient demon corpses that had not been knocked away.
Liu Ming made a sword gesture, and Void Sword Maru slashed at 1 of the demon corpses. Another emerald green blade light flew out of his sleeve and attacked the other demon corpse. It was the Green Demon Marrow Blade.
They joined forces and killed 2 more demon corpses in the blink of an eye!
In mid-air, Huangfu Jiangu’s face suddenly turned ugly when he saw Liu Ming and Zhao Qianying kill several ancient demon corpses in a row.
He knew he would have a hard time fighting an ancient demon corpse alone, but Liu Ming and Zhao Qianying displayed unexpected combat strength under the siege of 20 ancient demon corpses.
Judging from this situation, as long as there was sufficient time, he believed that it was not impossible for Liu Ming and Zhao Qianying to kill all 20 ancient demon corpses.
On the other side, the originally disorganized army of Blood Lion Legion had been basically reorganized under the command of 8 Celestial State commanders. The fight with the Liu Family army had restarted.
At this point, both sides were determined to finish the war.
“Your Highness, are we going to help the 2 people below or stop the Liu Family army?” A Celestial State red-robed demon asked Huangfu Jiangu softly.
“Kill!”
Huangfu Jiangu shouted angrily and flew downward first, but the direction was not the Liu Family army, but the remaining ancient demon corpses.
As the prince second only to Huangfu Liushui among the direct descendants of the Huangfu Family, he had always been quite conceited. In terms of talent and cultivation, he was not inferior to Liu Ming. However, Liu Ming interfered with the last selection ritual, and he stole his limelight this time. He was of course unhappy.
With Huangfu Jiangu taking the lead, the others around him were startled for a moment and immediately rushed toward the remaining nearly 20 ancient demon corpses.
For a time, weapon lights and demonic qi intertwined in the air, and explosions sounded continuously, immediately diverting the attention of those ancient demon corpses.
Liu Ming breathed a sigh of relief. Although the Mountain River Pearls could temporarily control these ancient demon corpses, his spiritual power was consumed very quickly. With Celestial State helpers like Huangfu Jiangu, his pressure was greatly reduced.
The Blood Lion Legion and Liu Family army in the distance were also fighting in full swing.
Although the Blood Lion Legion had just experienced a catastrophe, its overall strength was still much greater than that of the Liu Family army. Several Celestial States were also dispatched to deal with the ancient demon corpses.
If it was 1 vs 1, these ancient demon corpses couldn’t cause any trouble even if they were powerful…
An hour later, the 20 ancient demon corpses were finally eliminated under the siege of more than 20 people including Liu Ming.
In the valley on the other side, the war involving more than 100,000 demons finally changed from a stalemate to a one-sided situation.
The Blood Lion Legion was indeed one of the Huangfu Family’s trump cards. Coupled with the number advantage and morale, although both sides suffered casualties, the Liu Family army was gradually defeated.
In particular, after Liu Ming and others wiped out the demon corpses, the Blood Lion Legion suddenly increased its combat power by more than 20 Celestial States. The Liu Family army immediately fell like a landslide.
In mid-air, Ruan Wangtian, who was still fighting with Huangfu Yupo, was in a bad state. His clothes were in tatters, bloodstains could be faintly seen.
Obviously, Huangfu Yupo, who exerted her true strength, was much stronger than him.
He controlled the demonic dragon to block Huangfu Yupo’s attack, then he pulled the distance of several ten meters away from her. As he looked at the war situation below, his gloomy face looked even more dire.
As of now, the Liu Family had only 20,000 to 30,000 soldiers left, less than half of what it was at the beginning. Many of them were seriously injured too. If the war continued, the entire army might really be defeated entirely.
Seeing that the war was lost, he sighed lightly and immediately gave the order to disperse and retreat.
After receiving the retreat order, the Liu Family army, which had lost their fighting spirit, immediately fled in all directions.
However, the Blood Lion Legion divided into several groups and pursued them separately.
Ruan Wangtian forced back Huangfu Yupo with an attack, then he launched a cluster of blue light, which exploded in mid air. A space fissure appeared after the explosion.
He flashed into it instantly.
Huangfu Yupo did not pursue him. She stopped her attacks with a wave of her hand.
She also looked a little tired. She had been fighting against a Mystic Comprehending State of similar strength for so long, so her spiritual power was also consumed a lot.
She looked at the Blood Lion Legion that was pursuing the enemies, and she frowned slightly and launched several symbols into a communication disk array in her hand. The communication disk array flashed and turned dim.
Less than half an hour later, the Blood Lion Legion that had been scattered in pursuit returned to the valley.
After a bloody battle, the initially 10,000 soldiers of the Blood Lion Legion had reduced to 70,000. The loss was more than 1/3, which was a big deal.
Huangfu Yupo stood on a cliff in a valley with all high rank commanders standing beside her.
Her face was slightly pale, showing her tiredness.
She looked around with a gloomy face, and then she regained her composure.
To her great relief, the Celestial State demons didn’t lose much.
“I will cut the unnecessary nonsense. You all fought bravely this time. I will take note of your merits. When the Liu Family’s rebellion is quelled, I will reward based on your merits.” Huangfu Yupo said in a deep voice.
After she said that, everyone present didn’t look at ease much. No one who had just experienced a life-and-death battle could calm down immediately.
“The Liu Family army is defeated and their morale is low, so now is a good time for us to drive them out of the Yin State!” Huangfu Yupo announced with a slightly loud voice.
“Affirmative!”
Hearing this, the surrounding Blood Lion Legion soldiers cheered up and shouted in unison.
At this time, Liu Ming stood in the corner among the Celestial State demons and watched Huangfu Yupo issue the orders.
In this battle, Huangfu Yupo obviously took a big risk, but if it weren’t for this, it would be impossible to achieve such results in such a short period of time.
Judging from her next deployment, she had clearly figured out the Liu Family’s stronghold in Yin State. It wouldn’t be long for her to complete the initial mission soon.
This speed was probably the fastest among the six legions sent by Central Imperial.
After a while, the high rank commanders of the Blood Lion Legion left the cliff with all their troops.
Only Huangfu Yupo, Zhao Qianying, and Liu Ming were left on the cliff.
“Family Master Liu, thanks for your crucial help.” Huangfu Yupo looked at Liu Ming and said with a calm expression.
Although she had been fighting with Liu Family’s Ruan Wangtian in the sky, she had seen every move of the war below. She naturally knew that Liu Ming played a decisive role in this war.
“This is what I should do.” Liu Ming said humbly with an indifferent face.
Zhao Qianying pursed her lips slightly as if she was a little unconvinced.
“Ying’er, you too. You have made great contributions.” Huangfu Yupo saw the expression of Zhao Qianying and said with a smile.
“Master, don’t flatter me. It’s all thanks to Liu… Mr. Liu, otherwise I would have been injured by those demon corpses.” Zhao Qianying glanced at Liu Ming with a red face, then she said softly.
Huangfu Yupo smiled and said,
“I will report your outstanding performance to Sir Demon Emperor in the future.”
Liu Ming thanked indifferently, but Zhao Qianying said nothing.
Huangfu Yupo fell silent immediately for a while, seeming to be thinking about something.
Liu Ming stood aside with his hands down. He had various thoughts in his mind, but he did not speak.
Seeing this, Zhao Qianying could only wait quietly aside with her head down slightly.
“Family Master Liu, do you notice anything from this battle?” Huangfu Yupo suddenly broke the silence.
“Although these ancient demon corpses are much weaker than they were in Demon Abyss, after all, their cultivation is solid and their defense is extremely strong. I’m afraid they are the biggest force in the Liu Family this time.” Liu Ming showed a hint of hesitation as he said to this point.
“Go on.” Upon hearing this, Huangfu Yupo’s eyes lit up. Zhao Qianying also looked at Liu Ming.
“With all due respect, now that there were 100 ancient demon corpses in Yin State alone, the other states should face a similar situation. If the Liu Family continuously summons them from Demon Abyss, this war is unwinnable.” Liu Ming said slowly.
“Right! In fact, Sir Demon Emperor has another intention for sending me to Yin State to stop the Liu Family’s invasion in Yin State. He wanted me to find out the origin of those demon corpses. I originally planned to regain the lost territory first before looking into this matter, but it seems that we must take action immediately.” Huangfu Yupo nodded and said in a deep voice.
Liu Ming thought of something vaguely, but he did not answer.
“Among the Blood Lion Legion, no one can match Family Master Liu in terms of cultivation, strength, or mind. Therefore, I would like to ask Family Master Liu to go to Han State to see if the demon corpses come from that place.” Huangfu Yupo said.
Han State, as the place where the entrance to the Demon Abyss appeared, was obviously the most suspicious.
