Ling Yuan was not the only one to catch the Saint Heavenly Demon Emperor's aura immediately. He also instantly sensed the terrifying pressure approaching from afar.
The Heart Demon Emperor's group, who had just been hesitant and intent on fleeing, suddenly found their confidence soaring. They stood their ground, ready to fight to the death. There was no need to think about it—the Saint Heavenly Demon Emperor had definitely arrived.
Ling Yuan could clearly sense that the newcomer's strength far surpassed the Heart Demon Emperor's. He was the strongest Outer Realm opponent Ling Yuan had encountered so far.
To be honest, after breaking through to the Late Saint Grade, Ling Yuan had been itching for a fight. He especially wanted a genuine battle against a top-tier powerhouse of this level, to test his current true limits.
But the situation did not allow him to act willfully.
The Heart Demon Emperor and the others were far too troublesome. If they all ganged up on him, Ling Yuan would have to avoid their edge as well.
The Saint Heavenly Demon Emperor practically represented the peak of the Peak Late Saint Grade.
If he had to compare him to Great Thousand World experts, the Saint Heavenly Demon Emperor could fight two or three Sword Saints.
Though both were Late Saint Grade, the Saint Heavenly Demon Emperor's combat power was simply absurd.
Unless one had reached the Half-Step Ruler level, basically no one could kill him.
Ling Yuan knew his own limits. At present, he could at most fight the other man evenly. Completely defeating and killing him was impossible.
To be safe, Ling Yuan planned to retreat first.
There were so many of them on the other side. Running away was nothing shameful.
Insisting on staying to fight head-on, only to be trapped
