Chapter 803: The Demon God Emperor’s Plan (II) (2/2)

“Rest up and reorganise here for two ours, and then head to the Yale Province.”

The Yale Province was located in the north. Although it was still very far away from the Central Province, it was beside the Tombal Mountain Pass guarded by the Mage Temple. It was not close to the Dragon Resisting Mountain Pass.

Currently, they were gathered on a flatter area within some mountains fifty kilometers from the provincial capital they had just destroyed. Although there were quite a few ordinary soldiers in the provinces here, but the threat they posed was basically non-existent. Otherwise, they would not have been able to march right through the demon territory, destroying six capitals consecutively in such a short amount of time.

According to the information from behind, the hundred-thousand-man demon army stationed outside the Exorcist Mountain Pass had already mobilised its troops, besieging the mountain pass. However, they were not lead by a demon god, so they were clearly just putting on an act. If battle really did break out, they would definitely be the ones who would suffer defeat. One of the reasons why Long Haochen had let Han Yu return first was so he could find an opportunity to deal a heavy blow to this demon army, which would reduce the pressure on the Exorcist Mountain Pass even more. Currently, the Exorcist Mountain Pass was the weakest fort out of the six. They had secretly sent away around half of their people, but they were also protected by nine Eternal Heroes.

Although there were more soldiers at the Exorcity Mountain Pass than the Dragon Resisting Mountain Pass, their strength was nowhere close two-hundred-thousand-man demon army Long Haochen had destroyed. Long Haochen’s army was a gathering of the true elites of humanity, so the demon army there would pose no threat under Han Yu’s command as a divine knight.

“Huh?” Just as he thought about the countermeasures and estimated the Demon God Emperor’s possible actions, Long Haochen suddenly raised his head. He looked to the south-east in some doubt.

Although Xiao Huo and Shu Yongxiao had exceeded him in terms of cultivation, he was still the strongest there in terms of mental force. As matter of fact, it would not even be an exaggeration to label him as the strongest among all of humanity. As they were located within the territory of the demons, Long Haochen was constantly alert. His mental force had covered a range of over five kilometers across, so he would immediately notice any disturbances.

“There’s a demon heading our way. He’s not weak, at least of the eighth step,” Long Haochen frowned.

“I’ll go?” Cai’er was ready to investigate.

Long Haochen shook his head, “No need. Let’s just wait for him to arrive. He’s directly traveling in our direction, so he’s clearly discovered us. Since it’s only a single person, he’ll definitely have something to rely on. He shouldn’t be here to fight.”

As he said that, he smiled. He thought to himself that if he had guessed correctly, it was very likely that the demon would be the person he was waiting for.

The person had arrived very quickly. After appearing in Long Haochen’s scouting range ten minutes ago, she appeared on the top of a mountain around the campsite of the human army. As they were located in a flat area among the mountains, they were not particularly well hidden. When the demon saw them, she immediately made his way down. At the same time, she raised her hands high over his head, indicating that she had come peacefully.

Very soon, she drew near. From her stature, she was actually a woman. She was covered in black clothes, which also covered her head. It was impossible to tell how she looked like.

“Stop.” Yang Wenzhao stood up in the outskirts and raised his heavy sword, blocking the female demon’s path.

The person in black stopped, “I have no ill intentions. Long Haochen, you really are still alive.” As she said that, the person raised her hand and took off the black balaclava around her head.

Although Long Haochen hag guessed why this demon had come suddenly, he still could not help but become dumbfounded when he saw who it was. Disbelief filled his eyes, “Why have you come personally?”

Wasn’t the person standing before Yang Wenzhao in black clothes the most beloved daughter of the Moon Demon God Agares, princess of the Moon Demon clan, Yue Ye?

After five years, Yue Ye seemed mostly the same as before. The lifespan of powerful demons was much longer than humans. Five years would not leave a single trace on her. However, her gaze did seem even more calm, and her cultivation was greater than before. She had reached the peak of the eighth step at the very least and was approaching the ninth.

“If I don’t come in person, how will you trust me?” Yue Ye was in slight anguish as her gaze was slightly melancholy as well. In those five years, many things had happened, but the figure that had left the deepest impression in her heart never changed.

In the past, when she heard about Long Haochen’s death, she became drowned in grief for an entire month. She knew that the information she had provided to Long Haochen had become a part of the Demon God Emperor’s trap.

And recently, when she heard Long Haochen was still alive, she felt disbelief at first. She completely struggled to believe that he would be revived when even the Demon God Emperor had confirmed he was dead. It was very difficult for her to describe her emotions back then. Even she herself had no idea whether she felt joy or caution.
