Good night, sleep early everyone, I will wake up early tomorrow to make up for it!
Chapter 1099: The Cruel War
Demon Province
In a place called the Demon Province Dynasty, near the land where the Archean royalty resided.
Looking from afar, the sky was filled with snow and clouds. Black demonic qi soared into the sky, and terrible cries of killing swept through the nine heavens and ten earths, raging everywhere.
Gloomy clouds covered the land, blood flowed, and corpses were everywhere. Beneath their feet were the corpses of demons and Archean royalty. It was terrifying.
Shi Yan, dressed in purple, stood in mid-air. Around her, 18 demon masters protected her. Her sleeves were a little tattered, torn by dao tools and terrifying combat qi. Obviously, Shi Yan had also gone through a life and death battle.
Shiguan's beautiful hair was a bit messy. Her expression was sad. She didn't want this kind of war to happen, but the Archaic Imperial Race was just too cruel.
They were simply unreasonable. Wherever they went, all life would be killed, leaving nothing behind. Shiguan tried to persuade them several times, hoping that they could coexist peacefully, but the Archaic King Race didn't pay any attention to Shiguan. It was unknown just how many Demon Race civilians they had killed, but this caused Shiguan to be enraged and personally come here.
The two armies fought, and in the end, the millions of soldiers of the Far Ancient Imperial Race were completely annihilated, leaving not a single survivor. As for the Demon Race's side, it wasn't easy for them to win. Their casualties were relatively less severe, and this was all because of Shiguan's unique alchemy methods. The immortal pills and elixirs she distributed had extremely strong healing abilities.
The demons were brave and good at fighting, and their blood was strong. But compared to leading troops in battle, they were still a lot worse than the humans.
Among the demons, the art of leading troops was passed down by the demon emperors from the human military sages. But after such a long time, there were not many people who learned this art.
Because the demons had always used a very simple method of attack, which was to use absolute power to tear apart the enemy's defense line.
In their eyes, instead of studying the art of leading troops, it was better to improve their own abilities. This was the most important thing.
In their eyes, the seemingly cowardly way of fighting was actually the fiercest, most effective, and most wretched way to minimize casualties. However, to them, because they didn't need to use it normally, it didn't have much meaning. Some people who had accumulated a large amount of wealth with great difficulty didn't want to spend it on the human's way of leading soldiers. Instead, they focused more on increasing the destructive power of their own abilities.
Shiguan looked at the countless corpses in front of her and her complexion paled. Although this wasn't the first time she had seen such a scene, she had always played the role of a mediator. But in this war, she was the commander. The majority of the warriors of the Primordial Royal Family had died in her hands, and these Demon Race warriors were her people.
Now, her strength had stepped into the half-step Sage Realm, the same as Yin Zhenluo. But because Shi Yan returned to the demon race to cultivate after that day, no one knew about it.
Because Shi Yan had taken the 'Blue Dragon Divine Medicine', along with the growth of her strength, the medicinal power of the medicine gradually dissolved. In addition to the miraculous' Body of All Medicines', Shi Yan was able to step into the half-step Sage Realm so quickly. Of course, Shi Yan's rapid progress made the Demon General, Shi Zhong, and the others who admired Shi Yan feel ashamed, as if they had been slapped in the face.
The scene in front of her was deeply imprinted in Shi Yan's mind. She was quietly in a daze. Although she had won this war, she did not feel the slightest bit of joy in her heart. Now, she only hoped that Xuanyuan could be by her side, so that she could snuggle into Xuanyuan's arms and cry.
On the side, Shi Ba was covered in wounds and blood. He patted Shi Yan's shoulder and said:
"Little sister, I know what you're thinking in your heart. Look on the bright side. There are some things that we can't control. Right now, what we need to do is very simple, and that is to protect our Devil Race and exterminate all the ancient imperial race members. If we don't do that, our Devil Race will be exterminated by them. We absolutely cannot be lenient."
On the side, Shi Da was also injured in many places, but it was not serious. If Shi Ba had not blocked several attacks for her, Shi Da would not be so injured. Looking at Shi Yan's expression, she could not help but feel distressed. If she could let her little sister live a carefree life, even if it was for her ridiculous ideal, she would be willing to do so. However, now many things were beyond their control. Shi Yan's identity was destined to be involved in this earth-shattering war. For Shi Yan, who was compassionate and could not bear to hurt anything since childhood, as the commander-in-chief of the three armies, she suddenly controlled the life and death of countless Demon Race soldiers. After the war broke out, she also killed so many people. It was too cruel for Shi Yan. Now, she could only let Shi Yan accept such a reality.
"Big brother is right, little sister, you don't have to be sad. This is war, and casualties are bound to be inevitable. This war has been going on for a month. Everyone is tired. Sound the gongs to withdraw and let everyone have a good rest."
"Big brother, sister..." Shi Yan's flawless face and the pair of bright and moving eyes had now become extremely empty. She moved her dry lips and sobbed: "Can you tell me, why is there a war? Although we are not of the same race, we live together in the same world. Everyone gets along peacefully without fighting and killing. Isn't that good? Why do we have to fight to the death? The territory occupied by our Demon Race is not much. We can't even accommodate people anymore. They have such a vast territory, why do they still fight with us? "
Shiguan said as tears streamed down her face. She looked at her hands, which were covered in blood. This was not what she wanted.
"Little sister, let's not talk about this. Let's go home." Shi Ba knew that it was useless for him to say anything more now. He touched Shi Yan's long hair and soothed Shi Yan's emotions. After a pause, he shouted:
"The Corpse Demon Army stays to clean up the battlefield. The other armies return to the city to defend the frontier. No mistakes are allowed."
As soon as the voice fell, countless Devil Clan troops responded in unison, and their fighting spirit soared to the sky. Shiguan looked numb, and it seemed that she was no longer willing to say anything more. Shida was somewhat helpless. Now, she could only let her little sister be alone.
Because Shi Yan had a variety of fighting fires in her body, her killing power was amazing. These days, as the commander-in-chief of the three armies, Shi Yan did not know how many people she had killed. This was undoubtedly a huge psychological impact for the kind-hearted her. Both Shi Da and Shi Ba could understand Shi Yan's mood because they were both experienced people.
The outbreak of the war forced Shi Yan to take action. If she had a trace of mercy, then her own Demon Race warriors would have to die, so she went all out. Now that the war was over, Shi Yan's mood could be imagined.
"Xuanyuan, where are you?" Shi Yan's face was pale. She stared blankly at the sky. The blood clouds were floating, and all directions were filled with a strong murderous aura, as well as the roar of resentful spirits.
All kinds of unwillingness and resentment filled the air. Once a person's mind was not firm, it was easy to be affected.
"Xuanyuan, will you come back soon? I don't want to continue killing like this. Take me away from here. I want to stay away from this place of trouble... "Shi Yan muttered to herself. Her heart was extremely sad. Countless lives withered in her hands and turned into flying ashes. Even the soul did not leave a trace. For the first time, she found that she was so cruel.
She seemed to have become the kind of person she hated the most, like the devil commander, Shi Zhong. Her hands were stained with blood. She had subverted herself.
"Little sister..." Shi Da's heart was in pain. Shi Yan had always been her most beloved sister. When she was a child, she did not listen to her advice and almost died several times. It was Shi Yan who saved her at all costs and with the power of her physique. Therefore, at that time, Shi Da secretly vowed in her heart that she must protect her little sister well. She could do whatever she wanted to do, and she would never be too obstructed, as long as she could make her happy.
Now Shi Yan was in such pain. She felt powerless in her heart.
"Xuanyuan, come back quickly..." Two clear tears fell from Shi Yan's eyes. Pear blossoms stained with rain made people feel distressed. She cried in a low voice and kept repeating this sentence.
Shi Ba swallowed a few elixirs and healed the wounds on his body. He no longer said anything and transmitted his voice to Shi Da, "It seems that this war has hit little sister too hard.
"Looks like this battle has been too great of a blow to little sister. In the past few days, there have been millions of people who have died by little sister's hands alone. Little sister has always been kind, and now that she has killed so many people, it's only natural that she won't be able to recover in a short period of time. I think that little sister should not participate in the upcoming battles."
"Well, you send someone to the 'Blue Dragon Holy Land' to send a message. Once Xuanyuan returns to the 'Blue Dragon Holy Land', inform us immediately. Maybe little sister will feel better if she is by Xuanyuan's side." Shi Da understood Shi Yan's mind the best. As long as Xuanyuan was by her side, she would definitely feel much better.
"I really don't know if Xuanyuan has accumulated tens of thousands of generations of virtue from his ancestors. He can actually make little sister so dead set on him. Forget it, I have no other choice. I will listen to you. If he dares to bully little sister, I will immediately beat him like a dog." When Shi Ba thought of Xuanyuan's appearance of being surrounded by beautiful women, he could not help but want to challenge Xuanyuan to a duel. He simply did not put his little sister in his eyes.
"Alright, let's not talk about this anymore. You may not be able to beat him. I think it's better to forget it. Little sister is not a child. She has a sense of propriety for many things. It is not our turn to worry about it." Shi Da patted her forehead. She also felt very tired. She did not pay much attention to Shi Ba and left with Shi Yan.
