Chapter 833: The Demon God Emperor’s Wrath (I) (1/2)
The humans had achieved victory in the two battles in three short days. The Demon God Emperor’s calculations were extremely accurate. Unfortunately, he calculated what would happen at the start, but he failed to calculate the end result.
Long Haochen clenched his hand firmly, “It’ll be up to us next. If we can defeat the Demon God Emperor’s army of elites, then the situation between us and the demons will reverse.”
He was right. An army of a million demon elites had been defeated and seven demon gods had died as well. That was enough to shake the foundations of the demons. In particular, the heavy losses of the Fiends, Hell Demons and Bear Demons formed an incalculably great blow to the demons. If they could deal a blow to the Devil Dragons, Moon Demons and Star Demons here, then the bright glimmer of hope really would have arrived.
Yang Haohan said sternly, “Haochen, there’s something I must warn you. Before we completely defeat the Demon God Emperor, we can’t say that victory’s already been determined. As long as the Demon God Emperor hasn’t been defeated, then we still can’t break out of this age of darkness completely. Are you really confident that you can achieve this?”
Long Haochen shook his head, but his face gradually shone with a special light, “In the past, the Scion of Samsara used his life to heavily injure the Demon God Emperor back then, leading to his early death. I don’t think I’m any weaker than the Scion of Samsara back then and I also possess advantages that the Scion of Samsara didn’t. I have no confidence in defeating the Demon God Emperor. My cultivation is nowhere near enough for me to by his opponent. However, if it really comes to that point where he wants me to die, I will do whatever it takes to pull his demon god pillar down with me. Once the Devil Dragon Pillar is destroyed, the demons will definitely fall.”
He said this firmly. The determination in his eyes even shocked Long Tianyin and Yang Haohan.
“Hangchen, you…” Long Tianyin only felt like there was a lump in his throat, but he was unable to say anything.
For the greater picture, he completely supported Long Haochen, but Long Haochen was his only grandson after all! He was also the only child of the Long Family. Long Xinyu and Bai Yue had produced no one else besides him. If Long Haochen died in battle, then that would be the end of their Long Family!
However, as the chairman of the union and the Divine Knight of Glory and Leadership, he had an inescapable duty to face the Demon God Emperor. No one could replace him. The most crucial battle would depend on his ability.
The light in Yang Haohan’s eyes flickered, “Good, good, chairman. With what you’ve said, there’s no reason for me to value my old life. If I die, I have to die before you. Our Knight Temple has gathered all six divine knights, so I refuse to believe that we can’t defeat the Demon God Emperor.”
Long Tianyin recovered from his sorry, “Yeah, old Yang’s right. When time comes, we’ll all die in battle. All three generations. If we have to die, then let’s completely uproot the Long Family. Let’s die on the battlefield together.”
Long Haochen took in a deep breath, “Grandfather, Grandfather Yang, you should go. I think Yue Ye’s side won’t be able to hide the news much longer. It never rains, but it pours. Once the Demon God Emperor takes action, it’ll definitely be a battle that determines victory overall. It’ll also be the battle determining whether we can break out of this darkness.”
The Dragon Resisting Mountain Pass was constructed in a mountain range. Three days ago, when the Demon God Emperor lead his nineteen demon gods here, the mountain pass was filled by a killing aura. Now, the aura had grown thicker and thicker.
Woooooo! War horns rang out in the Dragon Resisting Mountain Pass as figures emerged from the mountain, standing on the walls of the fort.
Not a single regular warrior or mage appeared. The people that could stand on the walls were powerhouses of the seventh step at the very least.
The temple head of the Mage Temple, Li Zhengzhi, had come with his strongest wind mage squad and all nine Eternal Heroes sent to protect the Mage Temple. As soon as the battle at the Southeastern Fort and Myriad Beasts Mountain Pass had begun, he had lead his army of mages and Eternal Heroes over.
Apart from Li Zhengzhi, the higher-ups of the Assassin Temple that was the closest to the Knight Temple came as well. Personally lead by Sheng Yue, there were thirty-six Hidden Heroic Assassins of the eighth step, eleven Heroic Assassins of the ninth step and six Eternal Heroes.
The strongest force obviously came from the Knight Temple itself. With Long Haochen in the lead, the six divine knights stood in a single line in the centre of the Dragon Resisting Mountain Pass.
The master of the Divine Throne of Eternity and Creation, the Divine Knight of Glory and Leadership, Long Haochen.
The master of the Divine Throne of Terror and Sadness, the Divine Knight of Destruction and Forgiveness, Han Yu.
The master of the Divine Throne of Doom and Slaughter, the Divine Knight of Adjudication and Trial, Long Xingyu.
The master of the Divine Throne of Protection and Mercy, the Divine Knight of Defence and Planning, Yang Haohan.
