289: Qingshui Xianjun takes action! One move wipes out!

“Damn it!”

On the other side, the Descendant of the Earth Mother fled in a panic and headed straight for the Imperial Capital.

She knew that place had the Willow God’s protection, and even a peak seventh-tier Demon would not dare to set foot there easily; she was safe. But when she thought of the powerful Demons appearing in the vicinity of the Imperial Capital, the Descendant of the Earth Mother felt a pang of melancholy.

“The ancient seals have been breaking one after another, causing all the evil Demons that were sealed back then to be released, throwing the world into chaos!”

“I really don’t know what this world will become in the future. What if that Demonic Tiger… also becomes a member of the Demon race? Will humanity still have a way to survive?”

If Xia Fan knew that the Descendant of the Earth Mother still harbored such prejudice and suspicion towards him, he would probably be so angry he’d laugh!

This kind of baseless, private speculation was truly a headache, but no matter what you said, it was impossible to change the other party’s inner thoughts.

The Descendant of the Earth Mother was extremely fast, and with the help of the power of the Earth, she hurriedly returned to the Imperial Capital.

Only then did her heart completely relax, but she also quickly gathered some people, asking them about the situation around them and whether there were corresponding personnel to deal with it… Meanwhile, in a giant city in the eastern part of the Divine Land, it was already overcrowded.

On the city walls, a large number of humans gathered, constantly bombarding the dense, almost boundless Demon Soldiers outside with their firearms and artillery shells, their faces filled with worry.

“The West Gate is about to fall!”

Soon after, a fourth-tier cultivator came to this section of the city wall and called out to a few people, “Quick, come with me and resist the Demon Soldiers together!”

“Otherwise, if they open a breach in the west, this city won’t be able to hold!”

“We are also short-staffed here; we can’t spare anyone!”

Opposite him, a fifth-tier ability user, while controlling a large amount of flames to gush out, shouted without looking back, “How many people did the Demons gather for this attack? Have you found out clearly?”

“At least… fifty thousand!”

Upon hearing this number, everyone nearby froze, then their faces filled with despair!

The Demons not only came in a fierce tide, but they also had tough hides, making it difficult for ordinary firearms to harm them.

The reason why there were still many ordinary people holding firearms or artillery shells on the city walls was that it could slow down the Demons’ advance, and sometimes, with luck, they could penetrate the vulnerable parts of a Demon Soldier, such as their eyes or throat.

But such situations were, after all, rare.

The true resistance against the Demon army was only a dozen or so human powerhouses on each section of the city wall.

“Go find Old Man Fang!”

Seeing that the fourth-tier cultivator still refused to leave, the fifth-tier ability user pushed him, “As long as Old Man Fang agrees to let us transfer people over, I’ll go with you!”

“Go quickly, don’t block me!”

This person stomped his foot, gritted his teeth, turned, and ran.

The Old Man Fang they spoke of was the only late-sixth-tier powerhouse in this giant city. He was currently stationed in the center, so that if any city gate had a problem, he could rush there immediately.

However, in Old Man Fang’s eyes, the situation at the West Gate was probably not too serious yet, and he might very well return empty-handed this time.

However, when this fourth-tier ability user arrived at the city center, he saw Old Man Fang rushing towards the East Gate. He immediately froze, then shouted loudly, “Old Man Fang, there are mountains obstructing the East Gate, and the Demon attack isn’t too fierce. Why are you going there?”

“There’s a powerful Demon appearing!”

Old Man Fang dropped these words, then increased his speed, turning into a streak of light and rushing out.

After he arrived at the East Gate, he carefully sensed and indeed detected an abnormal aura in the nearby mountain forest. He immediately roared, “Since you’ve come, why don’t you show yourself?!”

“Hiding and sneaking around, are you still a powerhouse?”

“Hehehe, I didn’t expect to be discovered so quickly.”

Not long after the voice fell, a laugh echoed from the mountain forest outside the East Gate, and then a figure fifty to sixty meters tall stood up and strode forward.

He stopped a few hundred meters from the East Gate. “A sixth-tier ant? How dare you be presumptuous in front of This Lord?”

“You’re not worth my time!”

Old Man Fang felt a surge of anger, thinking, “Who are you looking down on?” But when he sensed the peak seventh-tier aura erupting from the other party, he immediately froze, and despair spread in his eyes. “Se… peak seventh-tier?”

When these four words were spoken, the surroundings seemed to fall into a dead silence.

“Hmph!”

“Since you know This Lord’s strength, do you still dare to advance?”

“Why not?”

Old Man Fang looked at his compatriots on the city wall constantly resisting the Demons, and the old, weak, women, and children in the city. After gritting his teeth, he condensed his aura to its peak and charged out, “Demon, even if I die, I will bite off a piece of your flesh!”

“Overestimating yourself!”

Boom—

In an instant, a loud bang erupted.

Before everyone could see the course of the battle, they saw Old Man Fang fly straight back, his body appearing exceptionally frail as he landed on the city wall, motionless!

With just one strike, this peak seventh-tier Demon powerhouse had killed him.

This scene filled everyone with deep fear, while the Demons outside the city were excited and immediately intensified their attack.

“Old Man Fang… is dead!”

At some point, this news spread wildly throughout the city, quickly causing the other human powerhouses to fall into deep despair.

They originally had hope with Old Man Fang in command, but now… that hope was shattered.

Indeed, after the news of Old Man Fang’s demise spread throughout the city, the western side first showed signs of collapse. If it weren’t for people pouring out artillery fire without restraint, these Demon Soldiers would probably have swarmed in.

“Demon!”

Suddenly, the seventh-tier Demon powerhouse looked up, his expression very solemn.

In his line of sight, he saw a young man descending gracefully, his gaze towards the Demons filled with disgust.

Especially when he saw Demons slaughtering humans, the young man’s anger was no longer concealed.

“Summon Rain!”

The person who arrived was Azure Water Immortal Monarch!

Currently, he had recovered his eighth-tier strength. He was originally completing a certain task nearby when he suddenly sensed the aura fluctuations here and rushed over.

He had always disliked Demons and wished he could kill them quickly. Therefore, the first thing he did after appearing was to directly cast the immortal spell — Summon Rain!

Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh—

In an instant, black rain suddenly poured down from the sky. All Demon Soldiers who came into contact with this black rain were instantly killed!

The peak seventh-tier Demon powerhouse was immediately furious, but the moment he touched the black rain, he also showed a look of horror, and then, before he could resist, all his vitality was gone.

A mighty peak seventh-tier powerhouse was actually defeated in a single move!
