Chapter 1047 Battling The First Fiend Ancestor (1/2)
There were two main reasons why the first fiend ancestor kept himself hidden in the cities. The first was that he had not recovered all of his strength yet, so he dared not launch an attack. The second reason? He feared Darren! Rather, he feared Darren's avatar. He felt that the avatar still possessed formidable strength.
However, the first fiend ancestor settled for a long period of recovery. He had sent low-level fiends to capture human souls that he could feed on. His two body parts had fused, and he felt his old strength gradually return. He no longer had to fear the silver-eyed avatar.
He watched Darren from afar, biding his time. When the right moment came, he would kill him.
Darren snaked through the low-level fiends and killed tens of thousands of them in an instant.

”Retreating is not an option. If we leave, hundreds of thousands of people in the Holy City will be killed. All we can do is fight against him together.” ”Time waits for no man,” Francis sighed.
The first fiend ancestor had chosen to come in person. This could only mean that he had prepared himself for battle. There was no place they could retreat except the Eternal Forbidden Domain.
Even if they wanted to retreat to the Eternal Forbidden Domain, they could only take half-step emperors with them. The others would be left to fend for themselves. They had no other choice but to face their enemy head on.
”Guards and elders, kill these low-level fiends,” Francis said, telepathically.
”Yes, sir!”
”Darren, we mu
