Jin Hong was extremely depressed, but this ascetic had one formidable trick: endurance. So this time, he was determined to ignore Zhang Su and devote all his time and energy to me. With that mere shift in focus, the pressure on my side increased considerably.
Zhang Su still refused to let up, continuing to spit out vicious, soul-crushing words. Unfortunately, Jin Hong seemed to have gone deaf and paid her no attention. I snickered inwardly and continued wantonly wrecking the army and fleet Zhang Su had brought.
Without the Divine Tortoise Warships as an anchor, the Rogue Cultivators suffered catastrophic losses. It was as though someone had plunged a razor-sharp knife into them, sending blood spraying as if it cost nothing.
Although Zhang Su ordered everyone to retreat, I kept hounding her, making her suffer terribly. With one side suffering while the other did nothing, she was gnashing her teeth in hatred. She was probably wondering whether Jin Hong had joined forces with me and was preparing to unify the Demon God Realm. The more she thought about it, the more frightened she became, and she hurriedly issued several orders for everyone to scatter and retreat, lest they be wiped out in one fell swoop.
When I saw Zhang Su flee with her troops, I did not pursue her. Instead, I used spatial movement and stood in a certain stretch of space.
Jin Hong had originally been fighting me alongside Zhang Su. Now that Zhang Su had protected her companions and fled, the old man stood there alone, staring blankly. It was a rather cruel turn of events.
