Chapter 60 (2/2)

…

The four demon monarchs had stopped temporarily because something very important had happened.

“Demon Monarch Whitesink.” Demon Monarch Ape, Demon Monarch Domineering Roar, and Demon Monarch Poison Pool looked at the army’s leader, Demon Monarch Whitesink.

“What happened?” asked Domineering Roar with a voice transmission.

Whitesink took out a token from his chest, and his gaze swept around. With a voice transmission, he said, “This token was bestowed to me by the Mountain Lord. It can be used to commandeer the entire army. At the same time, this token can sense the 18 commanders’ tokens. I am certain that 9 of the 18 Commanders have already died.”

“Half of them died?” Amidst the black fog, Poison Pool was extremely shocked.

“That’s impossible.” Ape couldn’t help but say, “These commanders are virtually invincible in the mortal realm. Their opponents are all human mortals. It’s very difficult for them to die in battle. How can half of them die in battle so quickly?”

“The moment the invasion began, I quickly sensed the death of two commanders,” said Whitesink through a voice transmission. “But back then, we had to deal with the three Godfiends from Jadesun Palace. I didn’t want you to be distracted, so I didn’t mention it. But following that, I sensed commanders dying one after another. Just a moment ago, I sensed that in the southeastern and northern regions, three commanders died in quick succession within seconds. Now, we have already lost nine commanders. I have to mention that if this continues, I’m afraid all eighteen commanders will die.”

“How could this be? How did the commanders die to mortals so easily? How did nine commanders get killed so easily?” The other three demon monarchs turned anxious as well.

Ape frowned. “We weren’t in a hurry to finish the battle with the Godfiends in Jadesun Palace because we were confident that the demon army could flatten Eastcalm Prefecture. If it turns out that our demon army is destroyed, what’s the point of us fighting here?”

“There’s only one possibility for nine commanders to be killed.” Whitesink’s eyes were cold as he sent a voice transmission. “There are other Godfiends in Eastcalm Prefecture City. There might even be more than one of them. These Godfiends in hiding are recklessly slaughtering the demons.”

The three demon monarchs agreed. If one demon commander had died, it could be blamed on humans relying on traps and killing a commander through body count.

To have nine die in a short period of time, all they could think of was one possibility—a Godfiend had taken action.

“They don’t dare to help Palace Lord Jadesun fight us. It shows that they aren’t strong enough. They are likely newly advanced Godfiends who have just broken through. They are very young, weak Godfiends,” said Whitesink with a voice transmission. “Demon Monarch Poison Pool, take my token and set off quickly. Head to the demon commanders who are still alive! Once you discover a Godfiend, kill them immediately.”

“Alright, I’ll go over.” The black fog-shrouded Poison Pool stretched out his iridescent green arm and took the token. “If it’s a new Godfiend, I’ll definitely be able to kill them easily.”

Those that were chosen by Mountain Lord Nine Convocation were rather powerful second Firmament demons.

Swoosh.

He rapidly flew southeast with his black fog.

…

Yun Wanhai, Fairy Meng, and Palace Lord Jadesun took the opportunity to consume pills to heal as quickly as possible. However, their expressions changed slightly when they saw a demon monarch shrouded in black fog leaving.

“Why did the demon monarch leave?” Fairy Meng’s heart tightened. She was most worried about the hope of her family—Meng Chuan. But now, she couldn’t afford to think too much. The remaining three demon monarchs were charging over again.

“Kill them.” Demon Monarch Whitesink and the other two were clearly more desperate than before. They were now worried about the demon army. If the demon army was slaughtered and they lost the war, Mountain Lord Nine Convocation would severely punish them.

Boom!

Palace Lord Jadesun once again clashed with them. Only he could resist them! If he couldn’t hold them back, both Fairy Meng and Yun Wanhai—who were seriously injured—would be instantly torn apart.
