"What is happening?" The Heavenly Slayer, suspended in mid-air, forced back two elite members of the Demon Clan and turned around, feeling a chill run down his spine.
At some point, the Demon Clan had split into two sharp forces that directly breached the defenses of their camp from the side. Now they were attacking from both front and back. In front of them was a group of soldiers who had been demoralized and slaughtered!
"How could this be?"
The Heavenly Slayer began to realize that it wasn't that the Demon Clan's attack was too weak; rather, they were employing a feigned attack! The purpose was to draw attention away from their true killing moves coming from two other directions.
"This is terrifying." Although he didn't know the enemy's commanding abilities, just this kind of strategic maneuvering made the Heavenly Slayer feel inadequate. No wonder they were being beaten so badly; despite having numerical superiority, they were in an absolutely passive defensive position!
Now it was too late to think about this; faced with attacks from both sides, and with the enemy's routed soldiers aiding in the assault on their formation, how could they possibly withstand this blow?
"We can only retreat!" Despite feeling extremely reluctant, the Heavenly Slayer knew that if he delayed any longer, he would be trapped by these Demon Clan Demon Lords. By then, even if he wanted to escape, it would likely come at a significant cost!
Just then, a Thunder Net suddenly descended from the sky. Its landing point was right where the chaotic soldiers were charging from behind!
This was an indiscriminate strike that did not differentiate between divine beings and the Demon Clan!
The strength of the newcomer was unfathomable; such a powerful Thunder Net could cover such a wide area of attack. Even the Heavenly Slayer himself might not be able to achieve that!
"What kind of person is this?" The method of attack that did not distinguish between friend and foe left everyone present bewildered. As they looked at the scene filled with casualties, they all shared the same thought: "Are they friend or foe?"
Following their confusion, two figures simultaneously descended from the sky, one of whom was surprisingly familiar to them.
"You are Cai Burin from the Holy Divine Gate!" Others might not recognize him well, but how could the Heavenly Slayer forget this guy who made him grit his teeth in hatred? "How did you end up here? What was that Thunder Net you just used? Why did you also attack our own people?"
Cai Burin was unwilling to even look at him, coldly saying, "Because they just tried to disrupt our formation. The only thing those slightly weaker Divine Warriors can use to counter the Ancient Demon and Demon Army is their battle formation. If the formation is thrown into chaos, there's no need to fight; we will undoubtedly lose. Didn't Lord Zhan Tian see that just now?"
Heavenly Slayer, filled with rage, retorted, "Even so, is that your reason to turn on your own people? They are all disciples of our Four Major Sects! You traitor, I see you have allied with the Demon Clan, which is why you would strike so hard against our own!"
He was so furious that he wished he could directly kill Cai Burin and the others on the spot. Although they had come to help, he wanted nothing more than to label them as traitors so he could easily attack them without leaving any evidence behind.
He even felt that the urgency of eliminating him surpassed the battle against the Demon Clan!
The ordinary Divine Warriors were caught in a dilemma; both were elders of their Divine Clan Sect, but Cai Burin's status was completely incomparable to Heavenly Slayer's. Although Cai Burin's attack had indeed interrupted the Demon Clan's offensive and caused them significant losses, it had also resulted in the deaths of many divine disciples, which some among them found hard to accept.
Thus, no one stepped forward to speak up for him at that moment.
"Hahaha," Cai Burin howled in despair, "With a great enemy before us, I came here to help you face them. I never expected you would prioritize personal grudges at such a time. I truly don't know how you became this commander!"
"Hmph! Well said; you are clearly a spy they want to insert into our divine clan. I'm afraid that when we expose our backs to you, it will be your moment to strike us hard. At that point, our front line will truly collapse in one blow! Hmph, this is your conspiracy."
"Idiot!"
"What?" Heavenly Slayer was furious that they dared to openly provoke him, his nose twisting in anger.
"Based on the situation just now, do you think they need any spies to break through your defenses? Reverse God Slash!"
At this moment, the Demon Clan finally stabilized their minds after suffering setbacks and regained their formation as they charged toward them once again.
Cai Burin struck down their two top forwards in a single blow.
Now, even if they had some wariness towards Cai Burin, they could no longer afford to care. No matter what, at least they would not be as crazed as Heavenly Slayer; in their hearts, the Demon Clan was still their primary enemy.
Heavenly Slayer looked at the current situation and hesitated. Suddenly, more than ten figures flashed in from a distance.
"That's True Navigator!" Upon seeing the newcomers, Heavenly Slayer's thoughts vanished.
No one could have imagined that at such a critical moment, the Xuanmen Sect Leader had actually returned!
"Hahaha, the Xuanmen Sect Leader has returned! All disciples, fight fiercely against the enemies; the Demon Clan won't be arrogant for long!" Heavenly Slayer knew that with Zhenhang present, he had no chance to act against Cai Burin. He was not someone his subordinates could easily manipulate.
At this moment, he could only put on a brave front for the sake of the divine clan to boost morale while thinking about how to deal with the upcoming situation.
"What is going on? In just one day, they have already pushed this far!" True Navigator looked at the tragic scene before him, feeling heartbroken. "Heavenly Slayer, how are you managing as the commander?"
Hearing Zhenhang's immediate accusations without leaving him any face made Heavenly Slayer feel immense anger. However, given his status, he dared not challenge True Navigator's authority and could only lower his head. "Daoist, I have done my utmost, but you Four Great Sect Leaders have moved all the experts away; I am powerless!"
True Navigator was infuriated by his attempt to shift all responsibility onto them and his stubborn refusal to admit fault. However, his eloquence was average, and given the urgency of the situation, it was not a time for words. He could only sigh deeply and glare at him.
"Fortunately, now that True Navigator has returned, with your skills, dealing with these Demon Clan warriors should not be too difficult."
Cai Burin and Evil and Malicious, who had just repelled another wave of attacks from the Demon Clan, had now arrived by their side. They bowed to True Navigator and said, "Daoist, you have finally arrived. We need you to take charge of the situation here; with our strength, we can only stabilize one or two fronts. The other three directions are already extremely critical."
“Master Zhenhang, this time you are powerless.” Hearing the words of Cai Burin and Heavenly Slayer, Zhenhang's expression darkened. An elder from the Xuanmen stepped forward and said, “The previous sect leaders had already sensed something was amiss behind us. After discussion, they decided that Master Zhenhang should not preside over the situation. However, on the way, we encountered a Surprising Yuan Turtle. At that time, Master Zhenhang fought fiercely against the Surprising Yuan Turtle to protect us and ultimately defeated it with a single strike, but he was severely injured in the process. Now…”
This time, not only Cai Burin but also Heavenly Slayer's expression changed drastically.
This truly spells disaster!
The warriors below were waiting to see how the Xuanmen Sect Leader, True Navigator, would unleash his power to annihilate the Demon Clan. However, after waiting for a long time without any movement and seeing their dispirited expressions, an ominous feeling began to arise in their hearts.
Even the Demon Clan members, upon recognizing True Navigator's identity, were initially shocked and fearful. However, after observing for a while and noticing that he had no intention of attacking and that even the golden light array suppressing their Spiritual Essence had vanished, they began to harbor doubts about whether he was injured. The retreat order that was already on the tip of their tongues was abruptly halted.
“However, it’s alright. With these Xuanmen elders who have returned with me, their strength is formidable enough to bolster your power. The question is what to do about other directions.”
Cai Burin sighed deeply: “This time I fear we cannot come up with any good solutions. If Wang Long were here, he might have some ideas. Now the Demon Clan has essentially copied his tactics from when he ambushed them outside Nanhua City. And now they are using it against our divine race—what in the world is going on!”
True Navigator felt a stir in his heart and asked in confusion, “Cai Burin, what are you talking about? Dragon Head? Tactics? What’s going on?”
Cai Burin understood that True Navigator had been in another realm and only projected himself into the divine realm; thus he was not very familiar with the current situation in the divine realm, especially in those remote areas. Taking advantage of the fact that the Demon Clan had not yet attacked, he explained Wang Long's identity and how they referred to him as a brother while serving him. He recounted how Wang Long had used a small force to exploit the weaknesses of the Demon Clan's army during several ambushes outside Nanhua City to achieve significant victories against them.
