Green Deer Mountain had originally been the site of a large Market, controlled by Chongyang Academy, where many Dao Discussion Assemblies had been held. When the Demon Race launched a massive invasion and broke into the Demon Subduing Kingdom, Green Deer Mountain also fell into their hands.
Green Deer Mountain's terrain was treacherous, easy to defend and hard to attack, making it highly suitable for establishing a stronghold and stockpiling supplies. The Demon Race had paid no small price to seize Green Deer Mountain in the first place.
After taking Green Deer Mountain, the Demon Race expanded upon its original foundations and stored away the Cultivation Resources they had plundered.
The descendants born from Demon Race members abducting human female cultivators were Half-Demons. The Demon Race was also advancing. Tasks such as setting up Formations, constructing cities, and refining artifacts were mostly handled by Half-Demons. Only Demon Beasts capable of taking human form were qualified to be called the Demon Race. It was not easy for the Demon Race to assume human form, but once they could transform, their strength far surpassed that of ordinary Nascent Soul Cultivators.
Ying Jiu was a Half-Demon. His father, Ying Feng, was also a Half-Demon at the Core Formation Stage. Father and son were patrolling atop the city wall.
"Father, when do you think this war will end? So many of our clansmen have died. The Seven Great Immortal Sects have sent out a great number of disciples. Even my cousin and cousin sister died at the hands of the Seven Great Immortal Sects' disciples."
Ying Jiu spoke with a heart full of worry.
He did not like fighting and killing. He preferred farming, and because of that, his own kind had mocked him endlessly.
"I don't know. Let's hope it ends soon!"
