Chapter 760 – A Massive Black Mountain

Several mountainous black silhouettes reached the highest point of the snowy peak.
Once they crossed this place, they would be in the human world, although both maps and military intelligence indicated that this place should be deserted.
The demon expert leading the group had only one hand, and raised it at this time to indicate that the group should halt.
The cold wind howled, rustling the demon's iron clothes, throwing his black hair into disarray, and revealing his demon horns, which seemed both real and unreal.
His eyes were a dark green and extremely cruel. His tall and sturdy body exuded a powerful Qi. Anyone who saw him would feel a boundless fear.
The second-ranked Demon General, Hai Di.
In Xuelao City or the snowy plains, amongst demons or humans, all were used to addressing him as Lord Hai Di, out of respect or fear.
As the personage in the Demon Army second only to the Demon Commander, he had killed countless human soldiers and cultivators, his vicious reputation spreading far and wide.
Several years ago, he had been one of the participants in the demons' attempt to ambush and kill Su Li on the snowy plains.
At that time, Su Li had cut off Hai Di's arm with a single slash while he had left a deep wound on Su Li's arm.
One could imagine just how monstrously powerful this demon must be, to be able to injure Su Li.
Hai Di looked down upon the courtyard nestled in the snowy mountains, an extremely rare tinge of apprehension appearing on his face.
There were very few matters in the world that could shock him.
That courtyard was very far away from this highest peak, perhaps a thousand-some zhang. In the eyes of the demon experts on the peak, this courtyard was like a miniature landscape in a pot. The starlight fell upon this landscape, upon the young man standing on the bridge over the lake who was as small as a grain of sand. For anyone but Hai Di, it would simply be impossible to clearly make out the appearance of the young man.
He had been able to see, so he was very shocked.
It was at this moment that the young man raised his head to the peak.
Separated by a thousand zhang of mountains, they silently stared at each other for a long time.
”I did not expect for it to be Your Holiness,” Hai Di expressionlessly said.
He naturally spoke in Demon language, his voice deep and filled with a strange charm.
……
……
”Leave as quickly as possible. Something will happen here soon, and I might not be able to protect you when that time comes.”
After saying, Chen Changsheng felt a ripple from the hidden Divine Staff.
This informed him that the demons had already arrived, and the ones who had come were probably terrifying experts that he could not deal with.
His gaze moved upward, reaching the highest part of the mountains, but he could not see clearly what was up there.
No matter how great his eyesight, it was impossible to see through the infinite darkness there.
But he knew who was there.
An Hua, the general, and all the rest of their group were very shocked, because he had not said that he wouldn't consider protecting them, but that he couldn't protect them…
Just who was this foe soon to arrive that not even the Pope could protect them from?
A fierce gale suddenly stirred over the spring-like stillness of the lake. The frigid wind off the mountains tore away at the atmosphere of the four seasons and rushed to and fro across the lake, its howls grating on the ear.
The howling of the wind also contained a few other noises.
Excepting An Hua, everyone could hear that this was Demon language. The general even heard the words 'Your Holiness' in them.
They all turned grim, realizing that the foes coming were demons, and presumably demon experts!
