Seeing this, Yi Feng let out a long sigh of relief. Fortunately, the Human Race was hostile toward the Essence Fire Race. If the Heavenly River Sword Sovereign and Yan Que had joined forces, they would never have been able to hold their ground and would have had no choice but to use their final resort.
"Pass down the order. Retain eighteen strongholds. Everyone else is to withdraw, including the women, children, the old, and the weak."
Yi Feng gave the order.
He had originally intended to retain thirty-six strongholds.
After this battle, he could only reduce his forces once more. Holding eighteen strongholds would be enough. As for the territory they gave up, let the Human Race, Yaksha Race, and Essence Fire Race fight over it!
The Human Race, Yaksha Race, and Essence Fire Race were mortal enemies. They had attacked the Lizard Race precisely to seize Cultivation Resources. Once the Lizard Race gave up its territory, it was impossible for them to coexist peacefully. All of them wanted to occupy and take more, so conflicts would naturally erupt.
"Clan Leader, there's no need to bring back the old, weak, women, and children, is there? What use can they possibly be? They'll only become a burden. The Sky Lizard Mountain Range can't accommodate so many outsiders."

"Free up some space. Carry out the order!"
Yi Feng issued the command without the slightest courtesy.
Bu Dan's brows drew tightly together. He had no idea what Yi Feng wanted those women, children, the old, and the weak for. It made sense to hold
