Xu Liao took out the Mountain and Sea Staff and used the power of the Mountain and Sea Scripture. He used the Ancient Elephant Carrying Mountain Transformation and the Mysterious Whale Swallowing Sea Transformation. At the same time, he used a portion of his power to change the Mystic Settling Mirror.
With just a glance, he could tell if there were any living creatures buried under the mud, stones, and collapsed buildings.
If there were living creatures, he would use the Eight Laws of Mountains to move the soil and rocks away to save the people below. He would also bring a stream of water over to cleanse his body and raise his spirits, so that the people he saved would be clean.
After Xu Liao silently saved more than ten people, someone finally joined the ranks of the rescue team with him.
When Xu Liao saved people, he would also dig out the buried treasures and food. With his help, the street gradually became lively, and hope appeared in everyone's eyes.
Although Xu Liao had his own power and gradually gathered a few hundred people to help, it still took him more than ten days to patrol the street. In total, he only saved about one hundred and fifty-nine people. However, he did manage to save a lot of treasures, and temporarily, the people in this street did not have to worry about hunger and cold.
Seventy percent of the people in this street died, and less than six thousand people survived. Although Xu Liao knew the inside story, he could not help but feel miserable. He shouted, "Now that the Celestial Realm has fallen, the demons of Devil Prison can threaten everyone at any time. If you trust me, I will take you to a safe place to rebuild your homes. If you are not willing to go with me, you can stay. However, I will not be able to protect those who stay."
Xu Liao had just saved people, so he had gained the trust of the people in this street. When he said that he would provide a safe place for everyone, some people could not help but be moved, but most people silently shook their heads. They were not willing to leave their homes.
Xu Liao tried to persuade them a few times, but there were only about a hundred people who were willing to go with him. Most of them still wanted to stay where they were.
Xu Liao was also helpless. Although he had powerful magic and could forcibly take these people away, but … he did not want to force them.
Just as Xu Liao was about to leave with more than a hundred people who were willing to follow him, a wave of Devil Qi suddenly rose not far away and quickly rushed towards this street.
Xu Liao activated the Mystic Fixation Mirror and immediately identified the group of magical beasts that were attacking him. These magical beasts were shaped like giant worms and had a thick carapace on their backs. They had six long legs and a pair of giant pincers. They could burrow underground and were very good at hiding.
Therefore, even Xu Liao was only able to recognize the demonic energy when they were close enough.
Just as Xu Liao was about to attack and kill this group of magical beasts, he suddenly thought of something and sighed. He shook his sleeves and kept all the people who were willing to go with him into the Small Universe World. Then, he turned into a ray of black golden light and pretended to fly away. After flying for more than a hundred kilometers, he concealed the light and flew back quietly.
The strongest few demons in this street were only Level 9 Demon Warriors. There were no Demon Kings. The humans were even weaker than the demons. Only one of them was a Level 7 Spiritual Knight. They were more than an hour behind Xu Liao before they noticed the Devil Qi in the distance.
These people's facial expression changed drastically and they hurriedly searched for weapons. The street that they originally lived in was also close to the Immortal Domain. It had never been invaded by demons and magical beasts before. Therefore, they did not know the cruelty of the demons and magical beasts.
After a few hours, this group of magical beasts rushed into the street. They were savage by nature and when they saw so many "blood food", they were excited and started a massacre.
Although the people in this street tried their best to resist, they did not have any combat experience. How could they resist these savage magical beasts?
In just half an hour, more than a hundred people were bitten to death and eaten by the magical beasts. Even the most powerful elephant-trunk demon was surrounded by more than ten magical beasts. He held a thick wooden stick in his hand and waved it repeatedly. However, he still could not resist the magical beasts. Soon, his body was covered in blood.
Xu Liao was not a cruel person after all. He could not hold it in anymore. He turned into a ray of black golden light and descended from the sky. He shouted, "You savage magical beasts, do not harm the innocent!"
Xu Liao smashed the Mountain and Sea Stick and immediately turned a king worm into meat paste. His martial strength was much higher than this group of "commoners". He could kill one with every stick. Usually, it would take more than ten commoners to resist the magical beasts. However, they could not even withstand one move from him.
Although Xu Liao had the intention to save them, he was only one person after all. From time to time, he could still see demonic beasts charging into the crowd. With a swipe of their giant pincers, they would snap ordinary humans and demons into two and tear them apart.
Xu Liao had fought in the Devil Prison for a long time. He had seen countless savage demons and tyrannical magical beasts. He knew that as long as a living being was possessed by a demon, they would no longer be docile and kind. They loved to kill and did things unscrupulously.
He had also seen his own kind killed by the demons as food. However, he had never seen a magical beast attack a human. After all, when he found the camp of the Seven Day War, those people had already been killed.
This hellish scene made Xu Liao's eyes widen. He attacked more and more ruthlessly. There were magical beasts that were constantly being beaten into puddles of blood and gore by his stick.
It was Xu Liao's decision to delay saving people for a moment so that these people could understand the danger and increase the probability of leaving with him.
If there was no threat of life and death, these people would rather protect their homes than leave with him.
If Xu Liao did not care about them, the people and demons in this street would be killed by the demons and magical beasts in a few days at most.
Although Xu Liao did not think that he had done anything wrong, he still hated this scene. He hated these magical beasts that had lost the nature of living beings.
Xu Liao, who was almost unparalleled, only used about ten minutes to kill all the magical beasts. Although he was not tired, when the last magical beast was killed, he still panted heavily. The pressure from his heart made him feel especially heavy.
After the battle ended, the people in the street slowly gathered. An old man shouted, "Can you stay and protect us?"
Immediately, many people responded, asking Xu Liao to stay and protect the people in this street. Everyone's pleading came one after another, mixed with countless hopes.
Xu Liao shook his head and shouted, "I have more people that need to be protected. If you are willing to leave with me and go to a safe place, I can provide protection for you. But if you don't want to leave, there's nothing I can do about it. I still have to protect more people who are willing to trust me. "
Xu Liao's words made most people silent. Some people and demons turned and left, still unwilling to leave with Xu Liao. More people made requests, hoping that Xu Liao could guarantee something.
Xu Liao was not good at dealing with these things. He could only keep shaking his head. In the end, the people who were willing to leave with him unconditionally did not exceed five hundred. It was only one-tenth of the people in this street.
