Qing Ying looked over and saw that it was Chi Yu who had sent him flying in the nick of time, saving him from the jaws of the Armor Engulfing Demon.
Chi Yu also rolled to the ground with the force of the impact.
The Armor Engulfing Demon was enraged after missing its target. It screeched and turned around, preparing to attack again.
Qing Ying smiled bitterly. He knew that he was doomed, so he relaxed and asked loudly, "Why did you save me?"
Chi Yu sneered, "Hmph, I may look down on you, but do you think I'll leave you in the lurch?"
"Ha, you're a little more pleasing to the eye now." Qing Ying laughed loudly. "But it looks like there's no chance. How about this, if I don't die this time, let's have a good fight. Whoever wins will be the boss, alright?"
"You think I'm scared of you?" Chi Yu continued to sneer, but his eyes were fixed on the Armor Engulfing Demon that was about to attack.
Chi!
The Armor Devouring Demon suddenly moved and charged towards Chi Yu.
At this moment, Chi Yu was lying on the ground. He couldn't escape even if he wanted to, so he could only watch helplessly as the Armor Engulfing Demon charged toward him.
Just as he was about to die, he felt a sudden impact on his thigh, knocking him sideways.
He looked over and saw that Qing Ying had used the wall's recoil to knock him aside at the critical moment.
Qing Ying laughed loudly. "I, Emperor Qing Ying, am not someone who owes favors. I'll return it to you."
Chi Yu faltered. He was a little touched, but he still said coldly, "You're still so stubborn even in the face of death. You go first. We'll fight again when I get there."
However, after knocking Chi Yu aside, Qing Ying didn't have the strength to dodge. The Armor Engulfing Demon landed on his chest. Without another word, it bit down with its massive mouth.
"Be careful!" Chi Yu cried out.
In the nick of time, a ray of moonlight suddenly attacked from the side, knocking the Armor Engulfing Demon away. It twitched a few times before falling to the ground, dead.
Qing Ying was overjoyed. "Yue Yao, you came to save me?"
Yue Yao landed lightly beside Qing Ying and helped him up. She glared at him, her face full of lingering fear.
Qing Ying felt as if he had eaten ice cream during the hottest days of summer when he saw Yue Yao's expression. He could only smile foolishly.
Chi Yu took the opportunity to stand up and frowned. "General Yue, what's going on?"
Yue Yao shook her head. "I don't know. A large number of evil demons suddenly appeared in the camp. There's even a half-step Sage Hundred-Joint Demon there. Many people are injured.
Qingying didn't expect the situation to be so serious. She asked worriedly, "Marshal Lan Xiao should already be dealing with it, right?"
Yue Yao shook her head. "I don't know why, but Marshal Lan Xiao still hasn't shown himself. I'm worried that …"
She did not finish speaking, but Qing Ying and Chi Yu both understood what she meant, and their faces turned pale.
If something were to happen to Marshal Lan Xiao, then who would be able to stop the Half-Saint Evil Devil?
Chi Yu gritted her teeth and suddenly said, "We can't care so much now. We have to join the battle."
Qing Ying also had the same thought. She frowned, "But what about the thing in my hand?"
"Go in and find the key. Open it yourself." Chi Yu clenched her teeth and decided to go inside.
Breaking the shackles without permission was a serious crime, but he couldn't care less about it now.
The three of them rushed into the inspection room and were immediately shocked.
The inside was filled with corpses. The people from the Supervision Department were all dead.
They didn't expect the situation to be so serious, and their hearts sank.
"The key is here." Yue Yao found the key to the handcuffs on one of the corpses.
After breaking the shackles, Qingying and Chi Yu regained their strength. Just as they were about to speak, they suddenly felt a violent fluctuation in the distance.
"It's from Big Brother. Let's go quickly." Qingying treated Yang Xuan as her big brother, and she was very anxious.
Although Yue Yao knew that Yang Xuan was a Saint and should be fine, she couldn't help but be worried. Hearing Qingying say this, she turned around and left without another word.
Chi Yu pondered for a moment, then also followed.
By the time they arrived, they found that the situation had already reached a critical juncture.
The people on the Alliance's side were already having a hard time dealing with one Half-Saint Evil Devil, let alone two.
At this moment, the two Hundred-Joint Demons were rampaging, spraying green liquid into the air. Wherever they passed, not even a blade of grass could be seen.
The people on the Alliance's side were already at a disadvantage, and now they were in an even worse situation. They were chased by the two Hundred-Joint Demons and had no way to fight back.
Qingying didn't even have time to say goodbye to Yang Xuan. She screamed and rushed out.
Chi Yu didn't want to be left behind, and she also rushed toward the other Hundred-Joint Demon.
Yue Yao didn't move. She rushed to Yang Xuan and said anxiously, "Holy Lord …"
Yang Xuan made a shushing gesture at her, his gaze fixed on the ground in front of him.
Yue Yao's face was filled with confusion and anxiety. She didn't understand why Yang Xuan hadn't made a move until now and had let so many people die for nothing.
Just as she was about to ask Yang Xuan again, she suddenly felt the ground under her feet start to move.
Yue Yao was shocked. Just as she was about to fly up, she suddenly felt a powerful suction force coming from the ground. It firmly held her in place, and she couldn't move at all.
In the next instant, a huge spike with a cold glint broke out of the ground and shot toward her.
Yue Yao was terrified. She couldn't move at all, and she felt a power as vast as the universe rushing toward her. The pressure was so great that her body almost shattered.
A deep sense of fear spread through her body. Yue Yao couldn't help but cry out in shock, "A Saint-level evil spirit?"
She wasn't the only one. Everyone's hearts instantly sank into an abyss when they felt the overwhelming aura. They couldn't see the slightest bit of light.
They originally thought that the appearance of a half-Saint-level evil spirit here was already a great disaster. Who would've thought that a Saint-level evil spirit would follow closely behind?
At this moment, everyone felt as if they had been plunged into an ice cellar.
The huge spike was about to pierce Yue Yao's body. Qingying's eyes were about to pop out of their sockets. She tried to rush over, but it was too late.
"Yue Yao!!!" she screamed in agony.
In the nick of time, a jade-white hand suddenly reached over and pulled Yue Yao up from the ground. Then, it flung her away.
Qingying was overjoyed. She hurriedly rushed over and caught Yue Yao.
Only then did everyone clearly see that the person who had pulled Yue Yao away was Yang Xuan, who hadn't had much of a presence all this time.
"Who is that?" someone asked.
"I don't know. He's been with Yue Yao all this time. I heard that he's her guest."
"He's so powerful. To be able to save someone from a Saint-level evil spirit's attack, he probably has the power of at least five emperors."
The spectators discussed animatedly. Even the dozen or so emperors who were battling the two Hundred-Jointed Demons took the time to look at Yang Xuan.
Rumble, rumble, rumble!
The ground began to tremble. Dirt and rocks flew in all directions and smashed into the distance.
First, a huge spike pierced through the ground, revealing a sinister, cold light. Then, a huge body gradually appeared before everyone's eyes.
After that thing appeared, the two Hundred-Jointed Demons actually stopped their attacks for the first time. Instead, they knelt down and kowtowed to it.
The emperors also didn't have the heart to continue fighting. With heavy hearts, they all stopped fighting and turned their attention over.
Amongst the crowd, only Yang Xuan had a faint smile on his face.
He had seen this evil spirit before!
