The Heavenly Drum sounded, and the sky was as black as ink.
There was dead silence on the Plum Mountain. The demons looked at the sudden change in the situation. At that moment, most of them had lost their fighting spirit.
The faces of the dozen or so demon commanders were as cold as ice. The few who had come to help the Plum Mountain also had the intention to retreat.
Wasn't Yang Jian always a lone wolf?
Why did it change this time? The Dragon Palace's shrimp soldiers and crab generals, the Heavenly Palace's Heavenly Soldiers and Heavenly Generals, and the Middle Continent's Immortal Dao came to help. Even the Wu people of the North Continent jumped out and joined in!
At that moment, it was not too important to fight those Magi. What was important was how to retreat safely so that the demons would not be greatly injured by the destruction of the Plum Mountain lineage!
"Quick, inform the patriarch …"
"The patriarchs have already arrived. They secretly met with me just now," a Golden Demon of Daira said in a low voice. "Today, we have to protect the lives of our clansmen. It would be best if we can dampen Yang Jian's spirit. It's fine if we abandon the Plum Mountain. The Primordial World is huge. There is a place for us to settle down."
"But the Plum Mountain is Patriarch Mei's territory. If we give it up like this, won't we be in trouble when Patriarch Mei returns from the Chaos?"
"That's not what we should think about. Yang Jian has to obtain this territory."
"Hmph!" The Flood Dragon King Lin Zhi's face was livid. He shouted coldly, "Bring me my saber!"
At that moment, more than ten ox demons carried a blue and white saber and walked forward. They knelt on one knee at the same time. Wang Linzhi grabbed the saber and looked at Yang Jian fiercely in the distance.
"Let me test the true abilities of this Perfected Lord Erlang!"
"Big Brother, wait!" Yuan Hong hurriedly stood up and pressed his brother's wrist with one hand. He said in a low voice, "The enemy is powerful, and the Heavenly Soldiers of the Celestial Court have set up an inescapable trap. The Plum Mountain is not a bystander. It is our home. Why don't we arrange for the brothers to evacuate first? When we fight later, we will not be restrained. "
Wang Linzhi snorted with an unfriendly expression. "Why, Second Brother, do you think I can't defeat Yang Jian?"
"Big Brother's divine bravery isn't something a hothead like Yang Jian who doesn't know the immensity of heaven and earth can compare to!" Yuan Hong laughed dryly, but he still urged, "But today's battle won't decide life and death. The situation is turbulent, and we need to be mindful of the vitality of the various races."
"That's right, Big Brother, hum!" At the side, the pig spirit Zhu Zizhen snorted. "Let's send our family away first before we fight with them!"
"Sigh!" Wang Linzhi flicked his sleeves and plunged the broadsword into the limestone beneath his feet, cutting through it like tofu.
"Brothers, I originally intended to provoke Yang Jian and make him promise to fight me. After that, I'll defeat him and make him return in low spirits. At that time, the dangerous situation we're in today would naturally be resolved!"
Hearing Wang Linzhi's words, the demons couldn't help but nod lightly. The snake spirit Chang Hao rubbed his chin and said, "I see that Yang Jian is very conceited. Who knows, he might agree."
Yuan Hong sighed in his heart, but he couldn't say anything that would boost the enemy's morale and diminish his own, so he said, "Big Brother's method is naturally feasible, but we should still make more preparations. Let those who can't fight leave first. That way, when Big Brother fights, he will naturally be free of worries."
"Then let's do as you say, Brother!"
Wang Linzhi sat back in his chair, a little depressed. Yuan Hong heaved a sigh of relief, his eyes filled with some thought, and he gave a few orders.
A moment later, amidst the drumming in the sky, there was some commotion in various parts of Mount Mei.
Figures with weak demonic aura gathered and retreated towards the northwest. There were too many of them to count.
The immortals in the sky wanted to stop them, but when they saw that those were only small demons that had yet to take human form, it would be too degrading for them to make a move.
Although the demon race had used a vicious plan to exterminate the human race in the past, human cultivators usually wouldn't be so ruthless when they exterminated demons, leaving not even a blade of grass behind.
Generally speaking, the demon race couldn't be completely exterminated. If postnatal lifeforms wanted to cultivate, most of them could be considered to be on the path of demons.
"Who is True Lord Erlang waiting for?" An old Daoist asked curiously.
Lü Chunyang thought of what happened yesterday and sighed softly. He gave a simple explanation with voice transmission, causing the many human experts who came to this place to look very unfriendly.
"This Mei Guihun and Mei Linhan!" A hot-tempered uncle scolded. "We're really giving them face! Exterminating demons is a major matter for the human race, but they're discussing personal gains and losses! Not to mention that Plum City and the demons of Mount Mei have a blood feud to begin with! "
Someone said, "The True Lord is probably waiting like this for the many righteous people in Plum City!"
"Sigh, I don't know what the Plum City Lord is thinking. Is he afraid that Yang Jian will take over Mount Mei?"
Lü Chunyang said, "Brother Yang Jian has already stated clearly that he won't take over Mount Mei completely. He will only station his troops here. Other than the place where his troops are stationed, they can build cities everywhere else."
"Then why aren't they here yet? They're really unreasonable! "
After thinking about it, Lü Chunyang still remembered his old relationship with the Mei family. He said, "I'll go to Plum City to take a look."
"Alright, go and come back quickly."
"I don't want you to come back, we've already cleared this place!"
"Hahaha!"
The Daoists were all laughing and talking, it was obvious that they were full of confidence. Lu Chunyang shook his head and smiled bitterly. He rode on his sword and flew away. These few days, he seemed to have aged a few years, and his handsome face was filled with worry.
What's going on with Plum City?
"Deputy City Lord! Send out your troops, we need them! "
The one who shouted was a thin man. He was one of the city's Daira, Guo Shen. "The drumming has been going on for so long! True Lord Erlang is waiting for us! Why hasn't he sent out the troops yet? "
Mei Linhan's face was livid. He seemed to have some misgivings. He said in a low voice, "Wait a little longer …"
"Mei Linhan!" Zhang Boshi jumped up and scolded, "Did you receive benefits from the demon race? Or did your primordial spirit get replaced with a demon soul? "
"What nonsense are you spouting!" Mei Linhan shouted angrily. He glared at Zhang Boshi, the veins on his forehead bulging as if he was about to swallow someone up. "It's not time yet!"
Even Yao Gonglin, who was usually the most tolerant, said, "Then how long do you want to wait?"
"Hmph! They're all shortsighted and fawning people! They don't even think about our lineage! " Mei Linhan swept his sleeves and pointed to the sky. "Don't you understand what Yang Jian is planning? Why did he leave the main position for us? He wants us, the Meishan lineage, to fight, to kill, to shed blood! And he will sit back and enjoy the fruits of our labor! If his allies suffer too many casualties, he will definitely not be able to explain himself! Don't you understand?! "
Zhang Boshi gritted his teeth and scolded, "Don't be such a despicable person!"
"Men! Tie Zhang Boshi up for me! "
A group of soldiers with high cultivation levels immediately rushed up to capture Zhang Boshi.
"Let's see who dares!" Zhang Boshi released his aura. His peak Golden Immortal combat strength was greatly enhanced by his appearance, intimidating the soldiers who were about to attack.
The burly man was quite shrewd. He shouted, "If you don't give a good explanation today and just refuse to send troops to suppress the demons of Mei Mountain, the men of Mei City will definitely think that you, Mei Linhan, are a traitor who defected to the enemy!"
Below the city, a lieutenant shouted, "Why don't you let us go kill the enemy!"
His voice was like a match that had been doused with oil. The city was instantly in chaos.
"City Lord! Send troops! "
"Let the City Lord come out! We want to see the City Lord! "
"These demons have a blood feud with us. We have been fighting for so many years. Why are we cowards when it's time to exterminate the demons!"
"City Lord, come out! We want to see the City Lord! "
Mei Linhan's expression gradually changed. He gritted his teeth and shouted, "All of you, shut up! My meaning is the meaning of the City Lord! It's not that we don't want to kill the enemy! We are waiting for the best time! Take back Mei Mountain in one fell swoop! "
The generals of Mei City looked at each other. Many people's eyes were filled with deep disappointment, but some people nodded in agreement. They seemed to be convinced by Mei Linhan.
"Deputy City Lord," Yao Gonglin said calmly, "3,625 years ago, the Center Continent had the help of the Hundred Immortals Sect. We won a great victory and could have taken down Mei Mountain in one fell swoop. Why was our city suddenly attacked by the demons? Our troops had to lead the troops back to help, which resulted in our failure."
Mei Linhan was stunned. He turned to look at Yao Gonglin and frowned. "The demons are treacherous. What can I do with such a vicious plan?"
"Then how did they cross the array and appear directly in the city!" Yao Gonglin suddenly became agitated. "You haven't given us an explanation for this until now!"
The corner of Mei Linhan's mouth twitched, but he just snorted coldly. "What does this have to do with me? It should be the work of the powerful figures of the demon race. "
"Okay." Yao Gonglin nodded and asked again, "Then why did a group of troops suddenly disappear one thousand and nine hundred years ago … and why did the city suddenly suffer from a fire twenty-six thousand years ago?"
"In the past few years, we went from being on the decline to having a firm foothold, and now we have the strength to spare to crusade against Mount Meishan. But why is it that after the crusade against Mount Meishan and after defeating the demon army again and again, things like this always happen!?
Yao Gonglin paused and did not say much. He walked to Zhang Boshi's side.
Among the generals of Mei City, three people also walked to Yao Gonglin's side. One was surnamed Kang, one was surnamed Li, and the other was Daira Jinxian named Guo Shen.
The five of them looked at Mei Linhan with unfriendly expressions. Yao Gonglin said in a low voice, "Today, if City Lord Mei still doesn't order the troops to attack, give us an explanation for what happened in the past!"
"Yao Gonglin! How dare you go against your superiors! "Mei Linhan was a little fierce.
"Go? Attack? "Yao Gonglin raised his head and laughed, but there were tears in the corners of his eyes." When did we decide who is superior? We cultivate together, live together, and live together! Didn't we gather here today to avenge our parents and the hundreds of thousands of our people who died at the hands of the Demon Race?! Let's take revenge! "
"Revenge!"
"Revenge! Revenge! "
Tens of thousands of Mei Mountain soldiers below the city shouted at the same time. On the city wall, more and more figures moved to Yao Gonglin's side.
Mei Linhan's hand trembled and he suddenly sneered. His words were as cold as ice, revealing a cold wind of the underworld!
"Rebel! Rebel! All of you rebel! If that's the case! What's the use of keeping you alive! "
Suddenly, a cold murderous aura emerged from Mei Linhan's body. In the city, a dazzling light shot up into the sky!
The expressions of the generals of Mei City changed. Just as they were about to fly up into the sky, a sudden fragrance filled the air. Their bodies went limp uncontrollably.
The dazzling light shot directly into the Great City Defense Formation. No one knew what kind of formation it was, but it suddenly changed the Great City Defense Formation's formation.
Then, it turned into a peerless killing formation!
Lü Chunyang, who was flying above Mei City on his sword, was shocked. He looked at the dazzling light pillar and exclaimed, "Why is there such a strong demon aura here?"
As soon as he finished speaking, the Great City Defense Formation was suddenly activated. Countless light pillars blasted toward Mei City!
