Chapter 228: Forward

??

Li Yuanqing grabbed the necks of the two devils with both hands.

The power of these two devils was completely suppressed by Li Yuanqing and they could not move at all.

Seeing that the devils outside had been dealt with by a fellow human, the humans in the cellar also crawled up.

Li Yuanqing casually strangled the two devils to death. After the devils died, their strength quickly dissipated into the air. Their bodies were not made of substance, so after they died, only two black robes were left on the ground.

Seeing that Li Yuanqing could easily deal with two powerful devils, many humans were amazed. However, they were more worried.

In terms of strength, they could deal with these two devils together. However, the other brothers of these devils were not far from here. If they attacked them, they would easily attract the others.

If they lured all the devil army here, they would have no way out and their only refuge would be discovered.

“Thank you for saving us!” This group of people did not speak for a long time. They only walked up to Li Yuanqing as the representative, who was the leading old man, arrived.

Li Yuanqing’s expression was cold. No one could tell what he was thinking.

“Where are the others? It’s too dangerous for you to be here. Follow me.”

For a moment, the old man could not figure out why this fellow was here. He said these words the moment he arrived and asked them to follow him. Why was he talking so rudely when he was dressed like a young man? It was so dangerous outside. If he followed him, would he die outside?

Someone in the team was unconvinced and asked, “Young Master, we don’t even know where you came from. How can we humans stay outside if you suddenly want us to follow you? The outside has already become a paradise for the devils. If we go out, we will die.”

“Where did you come from? You don’t seem to know much about the situation here. Do you know that this is not a place for us humans to stay?”

Seeing that they had no intention of leaving, Li Yuanqing did not have the time to explain to them. He waved his hand and these people suddenly felt their surroundings change. For some reason, they appeared in a strange space.

This space was very empty.

Li Yuanqing specially opened up a small world in his domain and temporarily accommodated these people here.

Now that Sea City was filled with devils, it was better to collect these people before chasing these monsters away.

The devils who were searching everywhere in the city suddenly became fewer in number. A force appeared from nowhere and caused them a lot of trouble.

The devils in the search team slowly began to gather. They had also sensed the abnormality and thought that the humans trapped below must have fought back with their lives.

In less than half an hour, there were fewer members of the devil’s search team in the entire Sea City.

Other than those who were lucky enough not to encounter it, basically everyone who encountered that human was dead.

Therefore, such a reputation spread among these devils. It was said that there was a god-like human who wandered around Sea City specially to capture them.

The devils’ leader even personally left the City Lord Manor to search everywhere, but he could not find this legendary troublemaker.

Li Yuanqing stood on the other side of the moat of Sea City and looked back. He felt a huge energy behind him, as if a pair of eyes were staring at him. He advanced another hundred miles and found the members of the advance team who had fled just now. He released all the humans he had taken in.

These team members still had lingering fears. They had just escaped death. What kind of scene was this? The devils were like locusts that could kill people easily. Fortunately, they ran fast enough and escaped. If not for that, they would have long been wiped out outside Sea City.

The sudden appearance of a large group of people from the sky frightened them out of their wits. After taking a closer look, they realized that these people were all from the same race.

So it was a false alarm.

“How did you escape? Why are you here?”

The people who were placed here were also dumbfounded. They did not know what had happened just now for them to be transferred to this place.

“Just now, there was a young man who looked dignified and quite handsome. He saved us all. Just a wave of his hand, we arrived at a small house. Then, we waited for an unknown period of time before we arrived.”

According to the description of this group of people, they did not come up with any useful information. Everyone was confused.

However, the fact that these two groups of people would be together made things clear.

Wasn’t the young man they were talking about just now the guy who saved them in the hands of the devils?

“But isn’t that guy dead? We saw him rush into the devils and never come back. He must be dead.”

“That’s right. We saw him go in with our own eyes. How can he still be alive?”

The members of the advance army could not believe it. The fool who was clearly dead just now was said to have rushed in to save people. This was impossible. He was surrounded by so many devils, he should be eaten clean in the end, leaving nothing behind. His soul might have dissipated and there would be nothing left.

“Isn’t the legend of the Sword Immortal circulating in your Ping City?” Someone asked.

“Sword Immortal? How can the Sword Immortal come to this place?”

The members of the advance army found it ridiculous. However, they could not understand why these people would suddenly appear here. This was really strange.

General Sun called his subordinates to the side and discussed softly. “Did you notice anything strange when these people appeared just now?”

The subordinate scratched his head and thought for a long time. He replied hesitantly, “I didn’t feel anything at first, but they suddenly appeared, as if they had fallen from the sky.”

“Think again. Nothing unusual happened?”

Under General Sun’s interrogation, his subordinates’ eyes suddenly widened.

“General, I saw some movements in Sea City just now. A dense evil aura spread out there. Could it be the devils in Sea City?”

General Sun narrowed his eyes and thought carefully. “Then you mean that these people are spies sent by the devils?”

“General, I wouldn’t dare to say that. It’s just that the appearance of these people is too strange. There are no signs at all. Moreover, Sea City should have already been sealed by the devils. How could they escape? It’s really strange.”

The two of them discussed for a while. The more they thought about it, the more they felt that something was wrong. Sea City was clearly surrounded by the devils, and there were not many lively people here.

Then where did these guys come from? They looked fine, but judging from the situation inside, these people might not be good people.

General Sun carefully sized up this group of people and said in a low voice, “I think you’re right. These devils must be unwilling to accept the fact we escaped and will definitely find an opportunity to fight back. We have to make preparations early just in case.”

“General, you’re wise! I felt that the way these people appeared was too strange. Now that I think about it, there’s most likely a problem. Then how should we deal with them now? They seem to be from the same race as us.”

“How are we of the same race?” General Sun reminded, “If they betray the human race and are willing to be the lackeys of the devils, then we will have an irreconcilable relationship with them. There’s nothing to say about being of the same race.”

General Sun’s words confused his subordinates.

“General, do you mean to—?”

His subordinate made a beheading gesture. General Sun hurriedly pressed his hand down and carefully looked at the humans. He was relieved to find that no one had seen him.

“Let’s settle these people down for the time being and appease them. It’s best to gather them all together and deal with them together in the future. However, we can’t let them discover us. We must be careful.”

“Don’t worry, General. Leave it to me.”

The adjutant commander gathered the many humans and demons who had escaped from Sea City on a small platform in the mountain.

These people had just escaped and were still in a daze. They obediently listened to the arrangements and both sides were peaceful.

On the other side, in the City Lord Manor of Sea City.

A black robe was spread on the main seat of the City Lord. It was dark inside, as if there was a human-shaped thing.

Behind the black robe was a limb as thick as an arm. It extended from the back of the human figure and reached above its head from time to time. This additional limb had a crack at the top. Inside was a fist-sized eyeball.

This eyeball was black and white. In the small circle with half a radius, it was pure black. This black was very deep. If one stared at it, it was as if they had fallen into an abyss. In the white area outside, there were suddenly countless very narrow concentric circles. These concentric circles were like waves that slowly fluctuated at a certain frequency.

A strange energy spread out with this big eye as the center.

At this moment, the outward ripples suddenly reflected back in a direction and hit the eye, interrupting all the energy that it had spread out.

The black shadow sitting on the City Lord’s throne slowly retracted his third hand and fused into his back. He slowly stood up and coughed softly. There was a cloak floating below. Under the cloak was a black fog that kept spreading sinister energy.

“Lord Devil King!” The devils below bowed respectfully.

The Devil King raised his head in surprise and looked in the direction of the energy fluctuation. He wanted to probe again, but he hesitated. He clearly had lingering fears and was actually at a disadvantage in the first exchange.

“No wonder he could get all these ants out in such a short period of time. This person’s strength can’t be underestimated.”

As soon as the Devil King spoke, the entire hall was filled with buzzing sounds.

“Lord Devil King, are you saying that a powerful human has arrived in Sea City?” The person below said in frustration, “At first, we only decided to fight because we received the news and realized that the demons were getting weaker and weaker. Who knew that the humans would rise again? This is troublesome.”

The Devil King was silent, as if he was thinking about something.

“After so many years, the demon race has always controlled these areas. How can there be a human who can reach such powerful strength?”

The Devil King was very puzzled. In the past, they only knew that humans were vassals of the demons and could only be slaves to the demons. However, this time, the demons were unable to withstand a single blow and were easily dealt with. Why did such a powerful figure appear in the human race? What happened?

The devil below muttered, “Humans can rise in such a short period of time. They probably obtained some treasure inheritance. I heard that there were many treasures buried underground here in the past. Could it be that the human race obtained these by chance and greatly increased their strength?”

“That’s a possibility.”

This was probably the only way for these humans to rise in such a short period of time. The other possibilities were too low.

“If you want to blame someone, you can only blame these demons for being stupid. They have such good conditions, but they had to lose everything they had. They even let the human race rise again. They deserve to be extinct.”

The Devil King snorted coldly and said, “These demons are so stupid by nature. If not for their natural good bloodline, they would have long become inferior.”

“Your Majesty, what should we do now? How should we deal with this human?”

At the mention of this human, the arm on the Devil King’s back hurt. He said slowly, “That guy has already taken what he wants and brought those hiding humans out. They’re already a hundred miles away and shouldn’t return for the time being. We’ll guard here first. When he attacks again, we’ll naturally have a way to deal with him.”

“Then I’ll order them to strengthen the city defense.”

“Destroy all these exposed human nests.”

“Yessir!”
