401: A one-month agreement
With the appearance of the Taotie Demon God's aura, everyone in the field except for Old Man Wan had a drastic change in expression!
Strong!
So strong it was suffocating!
When that aura appeared, it felt as if the entire world was about to be devoured by it!
The Taotie Demon God, the current strongest expert of the Demon Race!
And also a Ninth Rank Peak existence!
Of course, its Ninth Rank Peak was different from ordinary ones; it had already reached the very end of the Ninth Rank Peak. If it took one more step forward, it would be the legendary Tenth Rank!
Fang Bai also stared at the sky with a heavy gaze; just a single trace of aura let him feel the gap between them!
This Taotie Demon God's strength was even above that of Night Demon!
Damn it!
I'm still not strong enough!
At the same time, space twisted, and a giant face appeared in the field, looking down upon all living beings with indifferent eyes.
Seeing this, the demon beasts immediately seemed to salute.
Gluttonous God's gaze swept around, eventually landing on Fang Bai for just two seconds before shifting to Old Man Wan.
Old Man Wan said calmly, "Does your Demon Race want to fight, or surrender?"
As soon as these words were spoken, the demon race members were all enraged.
Space Demon God stared at Old Man Wan, a flash of wariness crossing its eyes.
This old fellow's strength was too terrifying; even if it teamed up with Gluttonous God, they wouldn't be able to kill him!
Old Man Wan's strength was even slightly greater than Gluttonous God's!
For such a terrifying human to appear in the Human Race was simply ridiculous!
No, now there's also Fang Bai!
The Demon Race also realized that they could no longer give the humans more time!
If things continued to develop like this, their strength would surely overturn the Demon Race!
Hearing Old Man Wan's words, Gluttonous God said slowly, "Old fellow, this time, your Human Race has won."
At this, Old Man Wan narrowed his eyes. "Do you mean you're admitting defeat?"
Gluttonous God said slowly, "It is not admitting defeat. How about this: in one month, our two races will launch the final war."
One month!
Both the Human Race and the Demon Race took on heavy expressions.
They knew that in one month, one side would surely perish!
This would be the final battle between the two races!
Hearing this, Old Man Wan chuckled. "Since we're going to fight in a month, why not fight now?"
Gluttonous God said indifferently, "You are indeed strong, but it is almost impossible for the Human Race to defeat my Demon Race. This month is less of a buffer and more of the time I am granting your Human Race."
"When the time comes, life or death will depend entirely on strength!"
Old Man Wan fell into deep thought.
Fang Bai glanced at Gluttonous God.
The opponent was clearly trying to stall for time. As for the purpose, it was nothing more than letting that Huan Demon God recover its strength. By then, the Demon Race would have three Ninth Rank Peaks!
No! It's four!
There's also Night Demon!
Four Ninth Rank Peaks!
And for the Human Race so far, only Old Man Wan has reached this level!
One against four—they certainly didn't have the advantage!
Of course, if they started the war now, it would clearly be disadvantageous for the Human Race as well!
Ultimately, the Human Race's strength was still a bit weaker.
This was undoubtedly an open play by the Demon Race!
"Fine."
After a moment, Old Man Wan spoke slowly.
Gluttonous God revealed a smile. "Then it's a deal. In one month, we'll decide life and death!"
It suddenly looked at Fang Bai and gave a strange smile. "The reason you were able to improve so rapidly is by devouring the blood-and-qi energy of my race, isn't it?"
Fang Bai remained silent.
Gluttonous God continued, "Without that blood-and-qi energy, your strength will stop here. From now on, I guarantee you won't be able to kill a single demon beast!"
Fang Bai's face immediately darkened!
Damn it! This sneaky bastard!
"Demon Race, retreat!"
The demon army retreated like a tide, and the battle came to an end.
At the same time, the demon armies at the borders of the Dragon Country also withdrew.
Murong Hai and the others also breathed a sigh of relief.
The Demon Race's offensive had nearly been more than they could handle.
Above the Demon Realm, only Old Man Wan and the others remained.
All the ancestors had heavy expressions, because this time, everyone knew in their hearts that humanity had reached a true moment of life or death!
Old Man Wan said slowly, "Everyone, we only have one month. Within this month, do everything in your power to increase your strength!"
Everyone nodded one after another.
Escape?
It's not that they hadn't thought about playing it safe to save themselves, but it wasn't realistic.
Without Old Man Wan in the Dragon Country, even if they were Ninth Rank, they would ultimately be unable to escape death!
In the past, Ninth-Rank Experts stood high above, but now, Ninth Rank Peaks were the absolute powerhouses!
Before a Ninth Rank Peak, a Ninth Rank was like an ant!
And now, they could only count on Old Man Wan.
These ancestors left one after another.
At this time, an old man walked slowly up to Fang Bai and looked at him with a smile. "For young friend Fang to achieve such success is the fortune of the Human Race."
Fang Bai raised an eyebrow. "And who might you be?"
The old man smiled and said, "I am Su Lingkong, the Old Ancestor of the Su Family."
Old Ancestor of the Su Family!
The Su Family was a 'one gate, two supremes' household, possessing two Ninth-Rank Experts; besides Su Yunsheng, it was this old man before him.
Fang Bai realized, "I see."
He could see through the other's cultivation; like him, he was at the Late Ninth-Rank.
Among the Ninth Ranks of the Dragon Country, there were still quite a few experts.
Old Ancestor Su smiled and said, "That little girl of mine, Su Su, has always been thinking of you, so I've also been deeply impressed by you."
Others: "..."
Damn it! You old immortal, trying to get close, aren't you?
At the same time, they felt some regret—why didn't their own families have any women? If they could win over this young man, it would be the fortune of their entire clan!
Fang Bai laughed. "Class Monitor Su and I are classmates."
Old Ancestor Su asked with an amiable smile, "What does young friend think of the girl Su Su?"
Fang Bai thought for a moment and said, "She's quite good. Beautiful and exceptionally talented."
Old Ancestor Su's smile grew even brighter. "Since you like her, then I'll take charge and betroth Su Su to you, how about it?"
Fang Bai's eyelid twitched. 'Fine, fine, fine, so this is what you were waiting for?'
He gave a light cough and said, "Senior must be joking. Marriage is a major matter that requires asking the person themselves. Besides, with a great enemy currently before us, romantic feelings should be set aside for now."
Old Ancestor Su gave a sheepish smile. "That makes sense. Then, when you have time, come visit the Su Family as a guest."
He couldn't say much more; after all, while he might have treated this youngster as a junior before, the other's strength was now no weaker than his own—things were different now.
Old Ancestor Su left.
Su Yunsheng walked over.
Fang Bai instinctively said, "You don't want to marry your daughter to me too, do you?"
"???"
Su Yunsheng's face darkened. "Am I that kind of person?"
Fang Bai said with a smile, "Who knows? What if you all want to curry favor with me?"
Su Yunsheng said indifferently, "Does currying favor with you really require a marriage alliance? I recall you owe me a favor, right?"
Fang Bai was stunned, then the curve of his lips widened. "Oh~ I almost forgot about that!"
Saying that, he suddenly raised his hand and pressed down.
In the next second, Su Yunsheng's expression changed drastically. He felt a terrifying force envelop him, causing his entire waist to buckle under the weight as he bent over!
Fang Bai smiled radiantly. "I'm much more badass than you now!"
Su Yunsheng: "..."
