149: The Human Emperor guards the nation's gates, while Su Yan slaughters the Southern Netherworld Demon Emperor!
Three days later.
Blue Star, North Dynasty Country.
After this period of arduous resistance, the Divine Strategy Legion had completely abandoned the Han Country front line recently.
They retreated fully to the North Dynasty Country.
And the North Dynasty Country was the last barrier of the Divine Strategy Legion outside the borders.
There was nowhere left to retreat!
Because retreating any further would only burn the flames of war to the mainland of China!
For this reason.
Long before China launched the expedition plan.
A magnificent crystal stone Great Wall had already been built on the border of North Dynasty Country.
This crystal stone Great Wall stretched and undulated, traversing mountains and ridges, reaching a length of 20 million kilometers.
It was the last hope for all the Human Race in the Yalan Continent!
At this moment.
On a fortress in the middle section of the crystal stone Great Wall.
Ye Zhibai stood in the strong wind, gazing into the distance.
In the distant territory of Han Country.
With Ye Zhibai's keen mental power, he could clearly perceive that.
An unknown energy was stirring there.
This energy was something he had never seen or heard of before.
But it truly existed and was constantly growing.
"What on earth could it be?"
Ye Zhibai thought to himself, his brows knitting slightly.
Because of the unknown,
there was fear!
He had already lived for over two hundred years.
No one understood the meaning of this phrase better than him!
And for the Blue Star Human Race to be able to hold on until now.
Ye Zhibai had made great contributions.
From establishing the Demon Slaying Institute to stabilize the situation in China.
Then establishing authority and creating the Divine Strategy Legion.
And then taking the lead in forming the Human Race Alliance to help other countries resist the Demon Race.
But everyone had forgotten.
The Human Emperor Ye Zhibai in their eyes was once an ignorant youth too.
The strong wind did not cease.
Ye Zhibai lowered his eyes, a look of sorrow suddenly flashing in them.
"I miss what Blue Star looked like before the Awakening era."
"But I am already the last witness."
Yes, that was correct.
The people of his generation.
Had either died in battle or died of old age.
The only Human Emperor Mo Wen, due to memory loss,
could not recall any of the beautiful scenes of Blue Star before it was invaded by the Demon Race.
"I am already old."
Ye Zhibai sighed leisurely,
his warm, jade-like face suddenly appearing much older under the blowing of the border wind.
Buzz, buzz, buzz!
High in the distance.
Three figures approached from afar, breaking through the barrier, and flew to the front in the blink of an eye at the speed of light.
They also landed on the fortress.
The massive aura in the sky, with the arrival of the three,
instantly erupted into bursts of sonic booms,
and then completely converged into Ye Zhibai's body, disappearing without a trace.
"Old Ye!"
"Brother Bai!"
"Junior Martial Uncle Ye!"
The three spoke simultaneously.
They were the Human Emperor Mo Wen, Dugu, and Li Yueqing, respectively!
Ye Zhibai nodded slightly towards the three people who landed in front of him and smiled, saying:
"You finally came."
"How long has it been since the four of us gathered together?"
Li Yueqing's face showed a serious expression, and after thinking carefully, she replied: "About ninety years, right?"
Ye Zhibai sighed with emotion, "It has already been ninety years, I wonder how you have been lately?"
Mo Wen said indifferently: "This question should be asked to Dugu."
The three looked at each other and smiled, then all turned to look at Dugu, who had just come back from the dead.
Dugu's face darkened upon hearing this, and he smiled helplessly.
"Don't mention it, being buried deep in those Hundred Thousand Great Mountains for two years, eating dirt every day, could that taste be good?"
Li Yueqing covered her mouth and chuckled softly.
"How is your injury?" Ye Zhibai asked.
Speaking of this, joy appeared in Dugu's eyes.
He immediately moved his arm and then threw a punch into the air.
Bang!
In an instant.
The fist wind slammed into the air, its momentum like lightning.
And the fist wind grew larger and larger, finally slamming into a mountain peak a hundred miles away.
Instantly.
The mountain peak exploded and scattered from the middle, and the rocks were blasted into powder.
Dugu withdrew his fist and smiled, saying: "The Devilish Qi has been removed for the most part, it will definitely not delay killing the Demon Race!"
Ye Zhibai nodded and looked into the distance again.
Seeing this, Mo Wen's face became serious, and he walked forward slowly and asked:
"Old Ye, is it that the front line here cannot be held?"
After the Talent War ended, the four had made an agreement.
No matter what happened.
None of the four were allowed to leave their posts without authorization; they must hold fast to their own positions.
Unless... the Human Race faced a crisis of extinction!
Ye Zhibai sighed and pointed towards the direction of the opposite Han Country.
"Look."
Mo Wen, Dugu, and Li Yueqing heard this and all looked over.
Because Mo Wen's strength was the strongest.
He became the first person whose face changed in shock.
Then it was Dugu and Li Yueqing.
"What is that!!"
The three asked in shock in unison.
Ye Zhibai shook his head, "I don't know either, but what is certain is that something is brewing there."
On the fortress, silence immediately fell.
The atmosphere became extremely heavy.
The formidable nature of the Demon Race.
Over these years.
They had all experienced it.
But never before had such strange and eerie energy appeared.
Ye Zhibai said bitterly:
"It seems the Demon Race has already learned about the matter of the Land of Divine Punishment, our plan to go to the Holy Capital can only be postponed indefinitely."
At this phrase "postponed indefinitely."
All three were silent.
Because all three understood Ye Zhibai's intention.
This was to fight to the death in the North Dynasty Country, striving to ensure the national gate was not lost!
"Fortunately, our Human Race still has a true god."
"He is the Demon Slayer."
Ye Zhibai's mouth held a warm smile, and a bright light shone from the depths of his eyes.
He continued:
"Thanks to the Demon Slayer, Xiu'er has also grown up."
"In the future, under the leadership of the Demon Slayer, new Human Emperors will continue to be born."
"This is a great era that has never existed before..."
Speaking of this, Ye Zhibai turned to look at the three, his gaze burning.
"Therefore, we must protect the Demon Slayer well! Even if the price paid for this is death!"
At this moment.
The strong wind blew, and the spirit swallowed mountains and rivers.
On the fortress.
Mo Wen smiled faintly, flicking the three-foot green blade in his hand.
"I will not shirk!"
Dugu took a big step forward, his words resounding with force.
"Who else but me!"
Li Yueqing smiled and brushed the hair behind her ear.
"This young woman is willing to protect the Dao for the Demon Slayer!"
Rumble!
Rumble!
Suddenly, right at this moment.
The four heard a mysterious sound from a distant place.
It was like being far in the deep space of the Universe.
And it was also like being close on the ground beneath their feet.
The four's expressions changed simultaneously.
Ye Zhibai's eyes focused, and he said in a deep voice: "The Demon Race, they are here!"
That unknown energy that made people feel fear,
was approaching the crystal stone Great Wall at a speed that made one's scalp tingle!
...
On the other side.
Nine Netherworld, Southern Nether.
On the pitch-black earth, a high tower wreathed in Devilish Qi stood tall against the sky.
Su Yan's figure approached like lightning.
Without a word, he threw a punch with a fist wrapped in various elements.
Bang!
This highest command center for the entire Southern Nether.
Faced with the intrusion of Su Yan, a member of the Human Race, it had no ability to resist whatsoever.
A rumbling sound rang out.
The high tower exploded and collapsed!
The sky of the Southern Nether also collapsed along with it!
Swish!
At this moment, a blood-red figure flew out from the high tower, gritting his teeth and roaring angrily:
"Demon Slayer, you destroyed my Southern Nether experts and ruined my high tower, this Demon Emperor will fight you to the death!"
Su Yan looked down at him with disdain, his posture standing in the air, and said coldly:
"Southern Nether Demon Emperor, now it is your turn."
The Southern Nether Demon Emperor laughed loudly, "This Demon Emperor has absorbed the essence of the Purple Moon for one hundred thousand years, and has long since forged an immortal and indestructible body, how do you intend to kill me?"
"Slaughter."
Su Yan extended one finger, slowly pointing at the Southern Nether Demon Emperor, and said calmly.
Boom!
As soon as the words fell.
The Southern Nether Demon Emperor's laughter stopped abruptly, and his demon body instantly twisted and annihilated.
