Demon God Emperor Descends (I)

"How many types and how many of the Demon Race are participating in this siege?" Sheng Lingxin, rushing towards the city gate, was unaware of the conversation between Ye Qingcang, Sheng Yue, and San Shui. Seeing the soldiers hurrying past, she swiftly stopped them and asked, "What is your mission?"

"Commander-in-Chief?" The armored soldier paused for a second, then was overjoyed and saluted, saying, "My mission is to find you. This is a mission assigned to me by the captain, and also a mission assigned to the captain by the superiors... There are currently seventeen known types of Demon Race participating in this siege, with a total number exceeding two hundred thousand. Due to limited observation capabilities, it is currently unknown whether there are other demons behind this group of Demon Race that have been observed."

"Seventeen kinds?" Sheng Lingxin's pupils contracted.

"Two hundred thousand?" Lan Yanyu, who had been absent-minded, was also taken aback.

In his fear, anger rose within him.

I glanced around instinctively.

They breathed a sigh of relief when they found Ye Qingcang was not there.

Immediately afterward, he felt ashamed of his fear.

Anger simmered until it overflowed. "Lingxin, these events all happened too coincidentally. I think that kid must be a spy for the Demon Race!"

"Before the great battle, you must not speak recklessly and undermine morale. Otherwise, even if you are the leader of the mage corps, you will be punished according to the law!" Sheng Lingxin Heart frowned, rebuking him mercilessly, and continued walking towards the city gate without stopping. "Besides, with Grandfather and the Lord of the San Shui Palace over there, it's not our place to worry about it!"

Lan Yanyu's face turned cold after being told that.

However, considering that the Sheng Lingxin was right, he did not argue loudly.

Follow the Sheng Lingxin.

In just two or three minutes, they arrived at the command post set up on the city wall of Exorcist Pass and met the legion commanders of the various legions, who were in complete chaos.

"Commander, you've finally arrived."

"Greetings, Commander-in-Chief."

"Chief, here is the intelligence we've gathered."

"Chief, here are the current losses."

Upon the arrival of Sheng Lingxin and Lan Yanyu, the restless atmosphere in the tent was quickly dispelled. One after another, the shocking intelligence summaries were taken by Sheng Lingxin. Even after just a quick glance, her eyes still twitched involuntarily.

Lan Yanyu also noticed the strange expression on Sheng Lingxin.

He frowned, leaned closer, and glanced at the intelligence summary.

That one glance nearly made Lan Yanyu's composure crumble. "Seventeen Demon Race legions— the Moon Demon Race, Star Demon Race, Undead Demon Race Clan, Hell Demon Race, Bear Demon Race, Lightning Demon Race Clan, Succubus Demon Race, Sound Demon Race, and more—are marching towards Exorcist Pass. Six of the top ten demon Demon God have arrived, and from top to bottom, they can be identified as: the second pillar, Moon Demon God Agares; the third pillar Star Demon God Vassago; the fourth pillar, Undead Demon God Samigina; the fifth pillar, Hell Demon God Marbas; the sixth pillar, Bear Demon God Valefor; and the tenth pillar, Lightning Demon God Paimon. In addition, there are thirteen other Demon God of varying ranks in the army, suggesting that the Demon God Emperor is about to personally lead the campaign..."

"Report!"

"Report!"

"Urgent message from Zhennan Pass!"

A scout dressed in gray rushed into the tent, took out a bloodstained letter from his arms, and held it up with both hands. "The forty-fifth pillar, the Hidden Demon God Bain, has left Zhennan Pass. Judging from his direction, he seems to be heading to Exorcist Pass. We urge Exorcist Pass to strengthen its vigilance. The Demon Race seem to be planning something big."

"Are you a scout from Zhennan Pass?" Sheng Lingxin strode up to the scout, glanced at his epaulets, opened the letter, and skimmed through it, asking as he read, "What's the situation outside? Besides the Demon God, where are the Demon Race troops?"

"The Demon Race army hasn't moved, but the Hidden Demon God Bain has already joined forces with many Demon God outside the Exorcist Pass..." Even the Sheng Lingxin, the highest military commander of the Exorcist Pass, was bewildered. This scout who had rushed a thousand Southeast Fortress was even more bewildered. He smiled bitterly and said, "I am the captain of the 13th Squadron of the Zhennan Pass Scout Brigade, a sixth-level assassin. I led fifty Fifth Order assassins to escort this message. Unexpectedly, we were surrounded by the Demon Race army. Fortunately, we met our brothers from the Southeast Fortress... Oh, right, there is also a letter from the Southeast Fortress here. Those brothers from the Southeast Fortress stayed behind to cover our retreat. At present, we don't know if they are dead or alive."

Looking at the letter from the Southeast Fortress, delivered by a scout from Zhennan Pass, Sheng Lingxin's face was more grim than ever before, as was the pressure he felt.

The Demon God of Zhennan Pass went to their Exorcist Pass.

It's likely that demons from the Southeast Fortress have also come to Exorcist Pass Demon God from this area.

The Demon Race race has a very clear system.

Without orders from above, these Demon God would never dare to abandon their posts.

The only being capable of commanding the Star Demon God and the Moon Demon God is the Demon God Emperor.

"This is a complete wipeout!" Sheng Lingxin muttered to himself, holding two bloodstained letters and gazing at the map. After only a few seconds of contemplation, he made his decision. "I'll go and consult the heads of the various temples..."

The upper limit of the Exorcist Pass is just enough to deal with a Demon God ranked in the top ten.

Now, apart from the Demon God Emperor, all five of the top Demon God have arrived at the scene.

The Assassin Temple alone is absolutely not enough to hold out.

At this moment, he was even glad that the selection competition for the younger generation of elites was held in Exorcist Pass; otherwise, Yang Haohan and the others would never have been in the city.

However, before Sheng Lingxin could finish speaking, Yang Haohan and the others arrived one after another. Also arriving were Sheng Yue, San Shui, Sheng Cai'er, Ye Qingcang, and Chen Ying'er. They reunited in the command post, and Yang Haohan spoke, taking over the conversation. "The Demon God Emperor's personal expedition was to be expected. The pressure on the Exorcist Pass is immense... Lingxin, you don't need to blame yourself too much. The issue now isn't assigning blame or finding the cause, but how to win this battle, and how much combat power we have?"

"Demon Hunt Squads is nearby."

"Six Ninth Order are ready to reinforce the Exorcist Pass at any time."

"My Magic Temple Master, Li Zhengzhi, is currently tied down by the Eighth Pillar Force Demon God Barbatos, and is temporarily unable to support the Exorcist Pass. However, the Vice Hall Master, Lao Yu, is able to do so; he is a Ninth Order, second-level Spatial Magic God."

Lin Chen, the Vice Hall Master of the Magic Temple, knew it all like the back of his hand.

"Long Xingyu is entangled by the Seventh Demon God Aannan and cannot come to the aid of the Exorcist Pass, but Long Tianyin can." Yang Haohan threw out a trump card, then turned his head and said, "Palace Master Lin, have your Palace Master Yu from the Magic Temple make a trip and bring Long Tianyin over... In the upcoming battle, have him conserve his Magic Power as much as possible. If the Demon God Emperor descends, go to the Knight Temple and invite my brother Yang Haoyu. He is currently Ninth Order, fifth-level Retribution Holy Knight."

The matter has been discussed to this extent.

Everyone realized the seriousness of the situation.

Although the Human Race can indeed spare some Ninth Order powerhouses to participate in the battle, they cannot allow the other fortresses to fall for the sake of Exorcist Pass. Otherwise, there would be no point in defending Exorcist Pass.

"What's going on?" Qiu Yonghao, the Temple Master of the Warrior Temple, who had just woken up and heard the alarm bells blaring at the Exorcist Pass, rushed to the city wall. Looking at the astonished crowd, he rubbed his neck in confusion and asked, "I'm asking you a question... Why are you all looking at me like that?"

"It's nothing." Yang Haohan raised his hand, signaling the others to be quiet, and said succinctly, "The Demon Race are attacking the city, so we're here to discuss things."

Qiu Yonghao nodded, indicating that he understood.

Immediately, he looked at the layout on the sand table.

His eyes widened immediately, his previously confused gaze clearing instantly, and his voice rose an octave. "Moon Demon Race, Star Demon Race, Undead Demon Race, Hell Demon Race... just how many Demon Race have come? Don't tell me these Demon God are here too!"

"We're missing a Demon God Emperor..." Yang Haohan sighed, hesitant to speak, but suddenly felt an energy point, like the sun, appear in his perception. His pupils contracted, and he quickly erected a protective shield in the face of the sudden, immense pressure. At the same time, he couldn't help but groan, blood trickling from the corner of his mouth. "My mouth is more accurate than a crow's mouth..."
