With Ling Yu leading a small group of demons to fight the Xuan Clan's army to the death, Ling Jin and Lu Xuan's retreat became much easier. Most of the demons they faced were ordinary. Although they were forced by the Xuan Clan to attack Ling Jin and the others, they didn't have the heart to fight to the death.
Ling Jin's eyes were completely bloodshot. In terms of strength, she was already the strongest in the Demon Sealing Continent. At this moment, she carried Ling Rou in one hand and attacked with her other hand. Every time she attacked, the wind from her palm easily overturned a group of demons. No one could stop her.
Lu Xuan followed closely behind Ling Jin and did not stay idle. He split his attention between two tasks. He held the sword in his right hand and performed the Five Elements Space Cleaving Slash while condensing the Myriad Thunder Seal in his left hand, repelling wave after wave of counterattacking devils.
With the two of them working together, they quickly carved out a path of blood. In the face of such a tragic battle, Ling Rou's face had already turned deathly pale. Her eyes were tightly shut and she did not dare to look. She could only allow Ling Jin to carry her and break out of the encirclement. Fortunately, Ling Jin was a sentimental person and did not forget to carry Ling Rou to escape at such a critical moment. If she had put Ling Rou down, she would have been torn to pieces by countless demons in an instant.
"Commander Ling, where do we go now?" Lu Xuan found an opportunity to ask Ling Jin.
Ling Jin said solemnly, "Let's go to Demon Sealing Mountain first. Second Uncle and a large number of our clan's warriors are hunting there. We must meet up with them as soon as possible. Once we gather our strength, we'll be able to fight the Xuan Clan. If we let them attack Second Uncle and the others first, the result will be unpredictable. "
Find Ling Shang? Lu Xuan frowned slightly. He had a feeling that finding Ling Shang wasn't a good decision. However, there seemed to be no other choice. The strength of the Ling Clan's castle was limited. If they returned to the castle, they'd probably be caught by the Xuan Clan.
Even so, Lu Xuan still asked, "Is Ling Shang really trustworthy? Why do I feel that there are too many coincidences this time? First, Ling Shang led his army out of Myriad Demon City. Then, rumors spread in Myriad Demon City. The Xuan Clan took the opportunity to take down the Ling Clan. From what I know … Ling Shang seems to be quite close to the Xuan Family, right? "
Ling Jin frowned. She didn't know if she was unhappy with Lu Xuan's words or if she felt that Lu Xuan's words made sense.
"As a fellow member of the Ling Clan, Second Uncle has no reason to betray me. He only interacted with the Xuan Clan because I didn't want to deal with Xuan Jianan. Furthermore, the Ling Clan has so many soldiers there. They can't all betray me."
Lu Xuan thought about it carefully and realized that it was indeed the case. Even if Ling Shang really had the intention to rebel, with his strength alone, he shouldn't be able to instigate all of the Ling clan's subordinates in such a short period of time. Once Ling Jin arrived, he would naturally be able to smoothly take control of the military.
Lu Xuan nodded and said, "Since that's the case, let's not delay any longer and set off right away. I need to recover my strength as soon as possible. As long as I can hold off the Xuan Clan for a period of time, until I reach the Demon Sovereign Realm, then all the rumors and conspiracies will fall apart. "
"Yes, I'll leave everything to you, Brother Xia. Right now, only your strength is the best evidence to make the Demon Clan believe in us. When that time comes, we can use their strength to encircle the Xuan Clan. " Ling Jin agreed with Lu Xuan's point of view. However, all of this was built on the premise that Lu Xuan could reach the Demon Sovereign Realm.
Lu Xuan took a deep breath and didn't say anything else. Right now, his accumulation should be enough. As long as he was given a little more time, not a month, even if it was just half a month, he believed that there was a high chance that he could condense a Five Star Divine Inscription. This was his greatest reliance!
Not only that, Lu Xuan also sincerely wanted to reach the Demon Sovereign Realm. Everything that happened to the Ling Clan was caused by him. Even if he had to find an opportunity to leave the Demon Sealing Continent, he had to ensure that the Ling Clan could live in peace. This was what he was determined to do.
Following which, the two of them brought Ling Rou with them as they soared through the skies towards the Demon Sealing Mountain.
The Demon Sealing Mountain was the first place that Lu Xuan appeared on the Demon Sealing Continent. Thus, he didn't have the time to observe it carefully. Now that he was flying over the mountain, he realized that this mountain range was extraordinarily large. It would not be easy to find Ling Shang and the rest of the Demon Clan.
However, Ling Jin didn't seem to be worried. She brought Lu Xuan and flew towards one of the mountain peaks. Lu Xuan spread out his divine sense and discovered that there were no traces of the Demon Clan here.
Ling Jin lightly shook her head, "It seems like Second Uncle isn't here. Let's go to the next place."
The Ling Clan basically had a few fixed places to hunt. Ling Jin only needed to follow these places and she would eventually find the Demon Clan.
After changing five places in a row, Lu Xuan and Ling Jin finally found traces of the Demon Clan here!
Ling Jin didn't hurry to descend. After observing from midair for a while, she finally nodded, "This place is not bad. There is the Ling Clan's symbol below. It looks like this place is quite peaceful. It shouldn't have been affected by the Xuan Clan."
After saying this, Lu Xuan clearly felt Ling Jin let out a sigh of relief. With this strength, she was finally no longer fighting alone.
The three of them slowly descended and walked towards the central camp. Soon, they were stopped by a few Demon Clan members.
"Who are you? You are not allowed to trespass the Ling Clan's camp! "
Ling Jin glared at the Demon Clan member and said, "Quickly take me to Ling Shang. This is urgent."
"So it's Lord Commander. Lord Ling Shang is currently resting. Please follow me, Commander." The Horned Demon clansman immediately recognized Ling Jin and hurriedly bowed. There were probably very few people on the Demon Sealing Continent who didn't recognize Ling Jin.
After instructing the other Demon Clan members to continue patrolling, the Horned Demon clansman led Ling Jin to look for Ling Shang.
Lu Xuan's eyes constantly scanned his surroundings with a suspicious expression. He felt that these Demon Clan members were a little strange. Their army was neat and tidy, but they were overflowing with killing intent. He had seen Ling Jin's hunting party last time, but he didn't feel this way.
However, Lu Xuan couldn't say what was wrong with them. He could only continue to follow Ling Jin.
After passing through groups of Demon Clan members, Lu Xuan and the others soon arrived at Ling Shang's tent. Without needing to be announced, Ling Jin directly lifted the curtain and entered.
"Who is it?" Ling Shang, who was resting with his eyes closed, suddenly opened his eyes and looked at Ling Jin. Then, he lowered his gaze and hurriedly stood up, "Commander, why have you suddenly come here? There are still two more days before you return from the hunt. Is there something urgent? "
Ling Jin took a deep breath and said, "Something big has happened in Ten Thousand Demon City. Xuan Jianan spread a rumor and incited the Demon Clan to attack my Ling Clan. He wanted to get rid of us as soon as possible. Third Uncle covered my retreat and allowed me to escape. Now … I'm afraid he's already dead."
