Sometimes, to the living beings of the Nine Heavens, the most dangerous thing in the Human-Demon Battlefield was not the Demons, but their own kind.
Wu Dong's encounter in the camp was proof of this.
Therefore, when he saw three rays of light flying into the range of his inexplicable sense, Xie Tian stopped.
100,000 miles away.
"Little Brother Song!"
"Luckily, we found you!"
"You're fine? That's great! "
…
The three rays of light landed in front of Xun Song, their faces full of surprise.
Xun Song was overjoyed to see them. "Senior Brothers, how did you find me?"
"Do you even need to ask?" A middle-aged cultivator with a heavy body laughed. "As soon as Master sensed that you were in danger, he immediately summoned us to find you. Luckily, you're fine!"
"Yes, Little Brother Song, if Master knew that you were fine, he would be so happy!"
"Eh? Oh right, Little Brother Song, Master clearly sensed that you were in danger, but why do you look unharmed? "
Xun Song's heart skipped a beat, but he smiled and said, "I was indeed in danger. Fortunately, I had the help of an expert. Otherwise … I'm afraid I would be separated from Master and Senior Brothers forever."
Hearing this, the three of them sighed and comforted him.
"Since you're fine, don't worry too much, Little Brother Song." The middle-aged cultivator patted Xun Song's shoulder and praised him with a smile, "Your team has returned. I have to say, you've earned a lot of face for Master this time, Little Brother."
Xun Song said with a face full of shame, "I thought we could kill that severely injured Demon General by combining our strength … By the way, how are the casualties of my teammates?"
"Eighty percent of them died in battle, sigh …" The middle-aged cultivator shook his head and sighed. "When we return, I'm afraid you'll have to join another team. Don't worry, with Master around, he'll definitely make arrangements for you. After all, you're the only one among us who has a chance of entering that place!"
At the mention of that place, the eyes of the three Senior Brothers burst out with intense and extremely contradictory hope and disappointment.
The intertwined hope and disappointment finally turned into a slightly flattering light of expectation that fell on Xun Song.
Xun Song was incomparably enjoying being watched by such a gaze, but his expression was one of fear and trepidation.
"Senior Brothers, please don't be like this. If it weren't for your help, let alone that place, I'm afraid I would have already died in the Human Demon Battlefield. This Junior Brother will forever remember your kindness!"
"Haha!"
"We're all fellow disciples. Little Brother Song, you're treating me like an outsider."
"That's right. If we don't treat you well, are we supposed to treat others well?"
…
After some laughter, the three Senior Brothers began to prepare for their return.
Unexpectedly, Xun Song frowned and said, "Three Senior Brothers, I came across an item earlier, and I keep feeling that it's a little strange, but I can't see through it …"
As he spoke, he took out Mo Blasphemy's statue from the camp.
The three Senior Brothers looked at it and exclaimed, "This is … Senior Mo Du's statue?"
"Mo Du?"
"That's right. Junior Brother, you might not know this, but Senior Mo Du is the founder of the scavengers!"
"So that's how it is!" Xun Song came to a sudden realization. He then asked in puzzlement, "Senior Brothers, do you know what's the use of this thing?"
"Use?" The middle-aged cultivator was startled. He then laughed and said, "Junior Brother, this is just an ordinary statue, and the craftsmanship is very crude … Hmm, in my memory, Senior Mo Du seems to have only passed down a Mo Du Ruler. There's no other statue of any kind."
"I see …" Xun Song frowned for a while before his expression relaxed. "If that's the case, then forget it."
The middle-aged cultivator nodded. Seeing Xun Song put away the statue again, he did not say anything. He only smiled and said, "Master has been very concerned about your safety these days. Now that there's nothing else, let's go back.
"I'll leave everything to you, Senior Brothers!"
Seeing this, Xie Tian felt that the Hunyuan Immortal Sect was actually quite a good sect.
Of course, what the Hunyuan Immortal Sect was like had nothing to do with him.
What he was more concerned about was that the statue couldn't just run off to a faraway place like this.
Just as he was thinking about how to retrieve the statue, he suddenly raised his head and looked into the distance with a frown.
At this moment …
The expressions of the three Heaven's Equal Mighty Beings who came to find Xun Song suddenly changed!
"Oh no!"
"The aura of a Demon General!"
"Five!"
…
In the Human Demon Battlefield, the Demon Captain's counterpart was the Daozu, and the Demon General's counterpart was the Heaven's Equal Mighty Beings.
However, this was only a comparison of cultivation levels.
In this comparison system, both the Demon Captain and the Demon General were far more powerful than the Daozu and Heaven's Equal Mighty Beings.
If it had only been a Planted Demon General, Xun Song's three senior brothers might have been shocked by its sudden appearance, but they definitely wouldn't have fled with Xun Song like they were doing now.
Xun Song was also stunned.
The team he was in was quite a good one. There were fifty-six peak Daozu and sixteen half-step Heaven's Equal Mighty Beings.
There were seventy-two of them, and they had ambushed a severely injured Demon General. In the end, the Demon General did not die, but eighty percent of his team had perished.
But now, he had just met his three Senior Brothers …
Five more Demon Generals had appeared behind him!
As panic-stricken as he was, he even subconsciously began to blame his three Senior Brothers for drawing such a terrifying enemy over!
"It's him …"
When it came to discovering the sudden appearance of the Demon General, Xie Tian was faster than Xun Song's three Senior Brothers.
However, what surprised him even more was that one of the five Demon Generals was the Demon General that he had tricked into not daring to move.
He did not even need to think to know that the Demon General that he had tricked was making a late counterattack.
"Five Demon Generals, is this necessary …"
Xie Tian wanted to laugh bitterly, but he realized that he could not.
This was because he knew very well that once he was exposed, the five Demon Generals that were chasing after Xun Song and the other three would give up on the three Heaven's Equal Mighty Beings and come after him.
Sighing softly, he placed his hand on Wu Guang's shoulder.
"Don't talk, calm down."
As soon as he finished speaking, a faint mist emerged from Xie Tian's body and instantly enveloped the two of them.
Wu Dong was still wondering why Xie Shao was doing this …
Not long after, when he saw five streaks of light that he could not even see clearly whizzing past his head, he understood everything.
There was only one type of light that he could not see clearly in this world …
The light of the Demon Generals.
Thus, what had just happened was that there were five Demon Generals that had flown past less than a hundred thousand feet away from him, and he was still alive.
"Very, very, very lucky …"
After a long while, Wu Dong's teeth chattered as he spoke these two words.
Xie Tian nodded in agreement. "We are very lucky, but they …"
"They?"
"Xun Song and the three Heaven's Equal Mighty Beings of the Hunyuan Immortal Sect who came to find him."
Wu Dong thought about it and finally understood why Xie Tian had stopped earlier, but he still did not understand what Xie Tian was saying.
"W-What happened to them?"
"They are very unfortunate."
"Huh?"
"The five devil generals have gone to chase after them."
"Huh … how could that be …"
"Because I'm hiding."
Xie Tian replied casually before dragging Wu Dong in the direction that the two groups had disappeared in.
Wu Dong thought about it for a long time before he understood what Xie Tian meant.
The instant he understood, his legs gave out from under him, and if it were not for Xie Tian holding onto him, he would definitely have fallen to the ground.
