As the smoke cleared, this could undoubtedly be called a great victory for their Dragon City from any perspective. Wang Long had employed clever strategies, accurately guessing the intentions of several Ghost Kings from the Yin Ghost Clan, ultimately catching them off guard just when they thought they were about to achieve a great triumph.
However, in the face of such a significant victory, while the ordinary warriors cheered with joy, Wang Long and his companions could not find any happiness. Looking at Cai Burin and the Elder of Dragon City, whose bodies were helplessly writhing, they felt an immense sorrow in their hearts.
“Brother Cai,” Wang Long sighed deeply and bent down to try to assist him.
But Cai Burin suddenly shook his head fiercely, his usually stoic face now filled with distress: “Don’t touch me!”
“Don’t touch me!”
Wang Long was taken aback.
Cai Burin endured the pain coursing through his body, desperately trying to move even a little bit, even if it was just a slight shift!
But he was no longer able to do so.
“Brother Cai.”
“I’ve already said it! Don’t move me!” Cai Burin gritted his teeth, his face turning red as he seemed not to be trying to perform any action but merely striving to maintain the last shred of dignity in front of everyone!
The onlookers gazed at him, at the Elder of Dragon City, feeling a sudden warmth in their eyes.
Today was not the day with the highest casualties since their Dragon City had entered the Divine Realm, but it would be a scene that everyone present would never forget.
“Find a way to see how we can save Brother Cai,” Wang Long said as he and his companions turned their backs on Cai Burin and the Elder. The Elder had already given up, but Cai Burin was still making futile efforts, and Wang Long could no longer bear to watch.
“This might not be so easy,” Liu Yancheng shook his head. “The spiritual tendons are crucial for transmitting power throughout the body; now that they have been completely extracted…”
"Go find a way! At least make him able to move like a normal person!" Wang Long did not listen to his nonsense and repeated his command once more.
"Uh, yes." Liu Yancheng could only nod in agreement.
Wang Long focused and said, "This time, the results we achieved seem considerable, but we need to let the warriors know that the real battle has not yet begun! I have carefully examined the records brought from Xuanmen and found that these Four Great Demon Kings are merely elder-level figures within the Yin Ghost Clan. However, there is still a significant gap compared to the true top-tier figures or newly emerged masters like that Dizang! Moreover, the Yin Ghost Clan does not only have this small number of warriors. We are now entering a state where the enemy is hidden while we are exposed; one careless move could be exploited by them."
"That's right. Although we achieved considerable results this time, the opponent only sent a small force, so they were not severely injured by this battle. Furthermore, when they strike again, we do not know when that will be. It effectively ties down all our forces."
Princess Liling smiled and said, "At least we don't have to worry too much about this issue for now, right? Don't forget that they have just suffered a heavy blow. Even if they want to initiate another large-scale battle, they must consider the morale issue after losing so many warriors. Those Yin Ghost Clan members cannot maintain strong morale like other races."
"You are correct in saying that, but I want to point out that if that guy named Dizang leads an elite team to employ ambush tactics again, who among you can be 100% sure that you can escape safely from his hands?"
A long silence fell among the elders.
Even those at the top level of strength among the elders, such as Wang Yuanxian, lost their confidence after Cai Burin was caught off guard by a deadly attack.
As Wang Long said, although they achieved a great victory this time, the final outcome did not fundamentally improve, especially with Dizang's next move exerting tremendous deterrent power. While they sympathized with Cai Burin's plight in their hearts, they couldn't help but feel a chill run down their spines.
As an elder-level master, who would want their strength to leave their body in such a manner, becoming worse than useless?
"Alright, let's first tally our gains this time. Then everyone should thoroughly understand the collections we brought back; we need to be well-informed about some of the Yin Ghost's tactics. After that, we will launch another offensive against the Giant Clan!"
"Yes!"
Wang Long turned to Jiang Xue and asked, "Jiang Xue, what's wrong? Are you feeling unwell?"
Jiang Xue hesitated slightly and said, "I'm fine, but I just feel that if we offend the Giant Clan without first eliminating the Yin Ghost Clan, it might put us in a situation where we are attacked from both sides. That wouldn't be good for us."
"However, on the other hand, it could also be a way to turn passivity into initiative. For instance, the Yin Ghost Clan certainly didn't expect that after we just defeated one of their attacks, we would dare to launch an Initiative Strike against them while they are preparing for a more comprehensive battle. Moreover, they will need time to mobilize their forces. Taking advantage of this opportunity, we should place the area around the Gateway to the Abyss on the Human Emperor's side under our Defensive Array and surveillance. At the same time, we need to clarify the situation with the Giant Clan so that we don't fall into their traps like we did with the Yin Ghost Clan."
Lingfeng flashed. Countless thick trees flew backward as Wang Long and Jiang Xue swiftly advanced through the dense forest without being hindered by the trees at all.
However, the further they went, the more they sensed something unusual about this place.
Compared to other areas of the divine realm, the trees and even the beasts here were extraordinarily large, as if this unique environment was formed by magnifying their ordinary world threefold.
It was clear without much thought that this place was naturally suited for the Giant Clan to live in.
Boom!
At that moment, a tremendous sound suddenly erupted ahead. Wang Long and Jiang Xue were already somewhat familiar with such noises and immediately slowed down as they approached cautiously.
As expected, they found three or five members of the Giant Clan fiercely battling several enormous beasts.
Unlike Wang Long and his companions or other races in the divine realm, when facing these gigantic beasts, the Giant Clan fought without needing any Spiritual Essence; they relied solely on their immense strength.
Wang Long and his companions watched coldly from a distance. The previous waves of giants had been defeated at the moment of their victory by Wang Long and Jiang Xue. If these members of the Giant Clan didn't possess any special abilities, they would likely meet a similar fate.
No matter how strong they were, in terms of speed, they were no match for Wang Long and Jiang Xue.
Boom!
Finally, facing such a large group of beasts, the five members of the Giant Clan were able to kill them all in a very short time, either by smashing them, beating them to death, or throwing them down. Looking at the corpses of the beasts scattered all over the ground, Wang Long and his companion couldn't help but feel a strange chill in their hearts.
Of course, with their strength, achieving such results was quite easy. Once the Flying Sword was unleashed, there would be no living beings left in the vicinity.
However, the cruelty implied in killing each beast with their own hands made them uncomfortable.
They remembered that in the real world, a Vampire Demon eliminated by the previous leader of Dragon City, Wang Long's father, once said: "You people kill with swords and Spiritual Essence; I merely suck Blood Kill from people. The number of people you kill is no less than mine. Why do you dare to call me a demon?"
But in reality, the method of killing is indeed very important!
Cruelty, sympathy, and brutal torture are emotions inherent to humans. Even true saints can only suppress these negative emotions; they cannot completely sever them from their minds.
Similarly, ordinary people have certain limits regarding cruelty and brutality. Just like Wang Long and Jiang Xue, whose hearts were as hard as steel, but upon seeing Cai Burin's previous state and now witnessing these giants brutally smashing one beast after another until they burst apart and their intestines spilled out—this was unimaginable unless one was in a state of rage.
Moreover, it was as if these giants were doing this as part of their daily routine.
Jiang Xue slightly shook her head and looked at Wang Long. "Should we act now?"
Wang Long was about to speak when he suddenly noticed something flash by at an astonishing speed at the edge of his vision. Alarmed, he gestured to Jiang Xue to remain calm and not act impulsively.
