Desperate Love: Rebirth of the Demon King

Chapter 154 Ji Wu's comeback (2)

By letting her use this move, Helan Ruofeng can preserve her strength. Besides, her spiritual power can grow on its own without the need for deliberate practice, but this is not the case with Helan Ruofeng.

Thinking of this, Yu Xiaobai’s second wave of attack has been launched.

Ji Wu never dreamed that of the 100,000 demon soldiers he had worked so hard to recruit, 30,000 of them were easily killed by the other side as soon as they appeared.

Seeing the demon soldiers howling everywhere, he was furious, his eyes filled with murderous intent. Now was not the best time to confront Yu Xiaobai, it would be better to rescue all these demon soldiers first. No, it would take time, manpower, and material resources to treat them anyway, why not let him absorb it to increase his cultivation?

Ji Wu not only dared to think, but also dared to do it. He flew out directly, and before he could use the soul controlling technique, he began to continuously absorb the souls of those demon soldiers.

"Damn it, how dare you do this?" Yu Xiaobai couldn't help but curse. He actually sucked the souls of the wounded soldiers in front of his men. Who would dare to work for him in the future?

As expected, the uninjured demon soldiers looked at each other in bewilderment, frightened by Ji Wu's ruthlessness. Some of the timid ones even began to abandon their weapons and retreat.

Ji Zhang obviously felt that his brother's behavior was wrong, but at this time he did not dare to step forward to dissuade Ji Wu.

"You evil creature, don't be so presumptuous." With a loud shout, the four elders suddenly appeared in unison and leaped into the formation to stop Ji Wu from harming the injured demon soldiers.

The situation suddenly changed. Ji Wu was temporarily controlled by the four elders. Yu Xiaobai and Helan Ruofeng retreated to the back, and all the big and small monsters who could rush out also retreated back to their own territories to guard them.

"What should we do in this situation?" Yu Xiaobai looked at Helan Ruofeng.

"Wait and see. If it doesn't work, then go forward to help." Helan Ruofeng looked at the situation carefully and said in a daze.

"Heiduo possesses the unique evil spirit of ancient ferocious beasts. Those who are seriously injured by him will find it difficult to heal their injuries..." Lan Moqiu's voice suddenly appeared beside the two of them.

"What?" Yu Xiaobai looked at Lan Moqiu in surprise, wondering why he suddenly appeared.

"Xiao Yu, the high priest means to let Hei Duo take the opportunity to launch a sneak attack on Ji Wu." Helan Ruofeng reminded from the side.

"Heiduo..." Yu Xiaobai no longer hesitated and shouted at Heiduo in the formation.

Hei Duo, who was madly biting the injured demon soldier, received the call and instantly came in front of Yu Xiaobai.

"Master, are you going to stop? I'm not hurt." Hei Duo reported proudly.

"Heiduo, I'm going to give you a difficult task now. You must complete it." Yu Xiaobai ordered solemnly.

"Master, please tell me. Heiduo will definitely complete the task." Heiduo immediately waited obediently for Yu Xiaobai to give the order.

"Now the four elders are besieging Ji Wu. You sneak up on him and find a way to hurt him. Be sure to protect yourself." Yu Xiaobai had a serious expression. Even though a sneak attack on Ji Wu was important, Hei Duo was also very important to her.

"Okay, Heiduo will complete the task and protect yourself." After Heiduo said this, he flew straight to the place where Ji Wu and the four elders were in a stalemate.

In the formation, Ji Wu, who did not want to waste the demon energy of the wounded soldiers, was now controlled by the four elders.

He had to stop absorbing as soon as possible and break free from the control of the four elders. But the situation was not favorable for him at the moment, and it would take some time for him to break free from their control. If someone attacked him before then, he would be attacked from both sides.

Ji Wu was not wrong at all. Just as he was trying hard to stop absorbing the demon energy, he suddenly felt a sharp pain behind him. When he turned around, he saw that it was Hei Duo biting his butt.

Ji Wu was so angry that he didn't care about the four hostile elders in front of him. He immediately withdrew one hand and attacked Hei Duo.

When Hei Duo saw Ji Wu attacking him, he quickly let go and evacuated Ji Wu.

At this critical moment, the four elders succeeded in their attack. Ji Wu was hit by the four elders. However, Hei Duo was also kicked heavily by Ji Wu and flew away.

The four elders wanted to pursue the victory at that time, but Ji Wu was very annoyed because of his injured buttocks. He had no mood to fight anymore. He retreated to Ji Zhang in a panic to seek shelter.

"Ji Wu, you shameless boy, you actually want to escape..." Hu Xiu couldn't wait to chase him, but was blocked by tens of thousands of demon soldiers in front of him.

"Hu Xiu, you shameless old man! You can run away with a clear conscience, but why can't I? It's really true that only the county magistrate is allowed to set fire, but the common people are not allowed to light lamps!" Ji Wu, who had just escaped from danger, was so angry that his face turned red. He turned around, pointed at Hu Xiu and cursed him mercilessly.

Hearing Ji Wu's accusation, Hu Xiu's face turned red instantly. He opened his mouth to refute, but in the end he just shook his hands in anger.

At this time, Yu Xiaobai, who was standing aside, asked: "Should we take advantage of the situation and pursue them now?" As she spoke, she cast her gaze towards Helan Ruofeng beside her.

However, Helan Ruofeng did not answer Yu Xiaobai's question immediately, but turned to look at Lan Moqiu on the other side.

Lan Moqiu finally understood what Helan Ruofeng meant by looking at him, and said bluntly: "It is not suitable to pursue at this time. You know, even if 30,000 demon soldiers have been lost, there are still more than 70,000 left! All the demons in Yuwu City who can fight together only have more than 40,000 people. Moreover, Ji Wu's spirit control technique is already very powerful. If you want to completely defeat and kill him, you must first break his spirit control technique. It is inappropriate to pursue rashly."

"Now, he has been injured by Hei Duo. It is not easy to recover from the damage caused by the evil spirit. You can use these days to find a way to eliminate the black glazed fire in your body. After the black glazed fire disappears, you can awaken the power of the demon god. At that time, you can save the demon spirit absorbed by Ji Wu."

Lan Moqiu acted promptly and quickly made detailed arrangements for a series of tasks that Yu Xiaobai needed to complete after Ji Wu was injured.

Yu Xiaobai blinked his bright eyes, thought for a while, and asked worriedly, "Then...should we find a way to get him out now? If Ji Wu keeps staying here, we won't be able to calm down and do the things that come next."

Helan Ruofeng, who was standing nearby, raised his eyebrows when he heard this, and said loudly: "Next, Xiaoyu, watch my performance!" Before he finished speaking, he suddenly took a step forward, raised his hands high, and shouted: "Preach!"

In an instant, a dazzling light flashed, and the Sword of Preaching appeared before everyone's eyes again.

Helan Ruofeng did not hesitate. He tightly grasped the hilt of the sword with his right hand and quickly placed his left hand on the sword body, continuously injecting powerful spiritual power into it.

At this moment, Ji Wu, who originally wanted to stay, suddenly changed his expression and his eyes widened in horror.

He had seen the power of preaching and could not allow his soldiers to suffer another heavy blow.

Ji Wu could no longer care about anything else and yelled at the top of his lungs: "Retreat... Retreat! Retreat quickly!"

Following Ji Wu's panicked shouts, the demon soldiers suddenly became chaotic, and each of them turned around and ran away like a frightened bird.

In the blink of an eye, all the figures, including Ji Wu, retreated like the tide and disappeared outside the borders of Yuwu City, leaving only a cloud of dust.

The originally grim battlefield was left with only the wounded soldiers who could not move.

Everyone looked coldly at the demon soldiers injured by Mei Yu. They were almost eaten by their own master just now and now they were completely abandoned. I wonder if they will regret it.

"What should we do with these wounded soldiers?" Sang Zi was the first to ask.

"First find someone to help them heal their wounds. Those who are willing to stay can stay, and those who are not willing to stay can leave on their own." After Yuan Ze finished giving the order, he did not notice anything wrong, and turned his head to ask Yu Xiaobai: "Your Highness, do you think this is a good idea?"

"The Great Elder's approach is undoubtedly correct. I have no objection to it." Yu Xiaobai clearly agreed with Yuan Ze's approach.

As the supreme ruler, there is nothing wrong with being tolerant of his people, and the arrangements made by Yuan Ze are very reasonable.

Yuan Ze felt relieved when he saw Yu Xiaobai agreed with his arrangement. He then turned to look at Sang Zi and gave an order solemnly: "Sang Zi, immediately arrange for personnel to rescue all the injured demon soldiers. Make sure they receive proper medical treatment and care."

Hearing Yuan Ze's instructions, Sang Zi hurriedly nodded respectfully and replied: "Yes, sir! I'll do it right away." After that, he turned around and left in a hurry to carry out the task.

At this time, Ming Changyi, who had been silent all this time, suddenly spoke up and instructed the envoy Gu Chenyang beside him: "Gu Chenyang, you also go to help Sang Zi and make sure this matter is done well."

Upon hearing this, Gu Chenyang immediately clasped his fists and accepted the order: "I will do my best and live up to the trust of the elder!" After saying that, he flashed and rushed in the direction where Sang Zi left.

At this moment, the two timid Qingyu and Cheng Feng beside Ming Changyi actually stood up bravely and asked Ming Changyi in unison: "Elder, please allow us to go together to help."

Ming Changyi showed a rare look of relief and waved his hand to let them go together.

Several energetic young men suddenly rushed out from Bi Cangyan's side, clamoring to join in rescuing the injured demon soldiers.

Yu Xiaobai's eyes swept over the faces of these people one by one, and he couldn't help but exclaimed: "You Yu? Lingchuan? Lan Ruo? Big Brother Mingfeng? Xiao San? Ah! Even Lan Ruo's brothers are here!"

"Xiao Yu..." Lan Ruo was also very excited to see Yu Xiaobai, but her excited and happy expression suddenly returned to calm.

The look of joy was gone, replaced by an indescribable cowardice.

She just looked at Yu Xiaobai from afar, her feet seemed to be nailed to the spot, and she dared not take a step forward.

Not only Lan Ruo, the other people's performance was almost exactly the same as hers. They all shrank back, and seemed to have a little more awe when facing Yu Xiaobai.

Yu Xiaobai was confused by their sudden change in expression. They were obviously happy to see her, but they showed that expression again.

"Lan Ruo? Why are you looking at me like that? And you? Aren't you happy to see me?" Yu Xiaobai suddenly asked sadly.

"You are His Majesty the Demon King, and we are just ordinary demons. We, we are... afraid that you will dislike us and don't want to play with us anymore." Lan Ruo looked at Yu Xiaobai and said softly, but the more she spoke, the lower her voice became.

When Yu Xiaobai heard her reason, the pain in his heart instantly disappeared without a trace. He rushed forward excitedly and grabbed Lan Ruo and said, "Lan Ruo, you think too much. As long as you don't do anything to let me down, you will always be my friend, Yu Xiaobai. I don't care about the identity of the demon king. It's not as free as Yu Xiaobai."

Yu Xiaobai was telling the truth. If she wasn't afraid of Ji Wu and worried about being persecuted by the gods, she would really like to find a place without war and live in seclusion with Helan Ruofeng.

"Xiao Yu, are you really the Demon King?" You Yu asked in a low voice with a tentative look on his face.

"I don't know either. Elder Yuan Ze said I am who I am, so it is me. Even if I am the Demon King, I am still your friend, right?" Yu Xiaobai explained quickly. She didn't want to lose all her friends just because she became a Demon King.

"Xiao Yu, let's go and help the wounded soldiers settle down first. We'll come to find you when we're free." Lan Ruo said at this time.

"Okay, I also have things to deal with." Seeing that Lan Ruo was still not afraid of her, Yu Xiaobai watched them leave.

"Several elders, we must guard Yuwu City and other cities in the demon world more strictly to prevent Ji Wu from launching another sneak attack. Ji Wu is a despicable guy and we have to be on guard against him." Yu Xiaobai then gave her first order after becoming the Demon King.

"Your Highness is absolutely right. I will keep it in mind and pay extra attention to related matters after I return." Ming Changyi bowed slightly and took the lead in expressing his attitude to Yu Xiaobai. His expression was respectful and serious.

Immediately afterwards, Bi Cangyan on the side also hurriedly bowed and responded: "Your Highness, don't worry, I will immediately arrange the defense after I return." His sonorous and powerful attitude was enough to show his importance and determination to this matter.

Seeing this, Yuan Ze did not dare to neglect it and said anxiously: "I, as an old minister, will go all out to re-plan the defense strategy to ensure the safety of Yuwu City and Fengling Capital."

However, at this moment, there was one person who seemed out of place, and that was the homeless Hu Xiu. He was standing alone, with a gloomy look on his face.

"Why are you looking at me? I have nowhere to go now. I...I can only help in Yuwu City. I can also lend a hand in Fengling Capital." Hu Xiu's face was full of grievance. He was already old and had to live under someone else's roof. How could he not feel aggrieved?

"Puchi..." A laugh suddenly rang out. It turned out that Yu Xiaobai couldn't help laughing out loud. The laughter seemed particularly abrupt and loud in the quiet and serious atmosphere.

Helan Ruofeng, who was standing by, reacted very quickly and covered Yu Xiaobai's mouth with his hand, fearing that her laughter would embarrass Hu Xiu. Then, he effortlessly grabbed Yu Xiaobai and dragged her away.

On the other side, Lan Moqiu stood quietly, with the corners of his mouth slightly raised, with a faint, playful smile. That smile gradually changed, and finally turned into a bitter smile.

Thinking of this, Lan Moqiu couldn't help but laugh at himself. He had never owned her, just as she had never truly owned him ten thousand years ago.

At this time, only Yuan Ze and a few other old guys were left there.

Yuan Ze looked around and realized that everyone else had left.

He said, "Everyone, in my opinion, we might as well set up a barrier here. In this way, if anyone dares to trespass into this area without permission, we will be able to detect it in time."

His proposal was unanimously approved by everyone, and everyone nodded in agreement.

Ming Changyi responded impatiently, "Okay! Let's get started. I'm in a hurry to get back to Jiuming City." As he said that, he rolled up his sleeves and prepared to get to work.
