Zhou Yun still wanted to persuade him, but Su Fan's figure flashed, and he had already vanished from where he stood.

"Even if you're in the Emperor Sword Realm, you may not be able to withstand them!"

Zhou Yun's delicate brows furrowed.

Su Fan was far too dismissive, far too arrogant.

In her view, Su Fan might be in the Void Sword Realm.

Even if he was in the Void Sword Realm of Sword God Mountain, how could he withstand the Thousand Demon Guard?

At most, he could probably trade a few blows with an ordinary Emperor Realm expert, right?

Su Leng emerged from the reception hall and suddenly remembered that Su Fan was a disciple of Sword God Mountain.

Could he be in the Emperor Sword Realm?

If so, that would be monstrously extraordinary.

"General Su, the Qiankun Guard must gather at once. Su Fan alone..."

Seeing Su Leng, Zhou Yun spoke.

"I understand!"

Su Leng soared into the air, his voice echoing throughout the Gan Royal Estate.

"Qiankun Guard, follow me into battle—destroy the Thousand Demons!"

Boom!

The gates of the Gan Royal Estate's royal city flew open, and the Qiankun Guard surged out in a mighty, imposing procession.

Meanwhile, within the royal estate.

Several clan elders and Su Zhi had already begun making preparations on two fronts: fleeing or surrendering!

If Su Fan won, then naturally everything would continue as usual.

But if he lost, they would either surrender—or, if surrender was impossible, they could only flee...

Demonic aura billowed like rolling clouds, blotting out the sky and covering the sun.

The Thousand Demon Guard charged straight toward the Gan Royal Estate, their overwhelming demonic might unrestrained all along the way.

Wherever they passed, even if a small sect stood in their path, they did not detour around it.

The cultivators within those small sects were frightened into fleeing in all directions.

Countless cultivators felt stifled and humiliated, and many cursed aloud.

Yet no one dared step forward to stop them!

The Thousand Demon Guard was too powerful. How could one person possibly stand against them?

Countless low-level cultivators all hoped that the experts of those great powers would intervene and stop this Demon Race army.

Yet strangely enough.

Countless great powers remained on the sidelines.

They actually allowed this Demon Race army to run rampant through the Human Race dynasty.

Even the Tianwu Royal Estate and the Wenxing Royal Estate showed no reaction.

They sent no troops to offer aid!

Many people caught the scent of something unusual.

The Thousand Demon Guard drew ever closer to the Gan Royal Estate.

Their momentum also grew stronger and stronger, their demonic might shaking all four directions.

Roar!

The roars of demonic beasts rang through the heavens.

Within the Gan Royal Estate, countless people were horrified.

They fled in all directions!

The garrisons in every city of the Gan Royal Estate were utterly shaken.

The Thousand Demon Guard was so powerful—how could they resist?

Some fled.

Some gritted their teeth in fury and held their ground, refusing to leave even in death!

"A bunch of cowards! What is there to fear from those Demon Race brats?!"

"That's right! How can we of the Human Race be frightened away by demon brats without even fighting?"

"This Eastern Region is the territory of our Human Race. How dare those demon brats run wild like this?"

"At worst, we die! We will never be cowards!"

A group of hot-blooded guards formed a battle formation. Ready to face death, they prepared to confront the Thousand Demon Guard!

Rumble!

The earth trembled.

Billowing demonic aura rolled in from ahead, and terrifying demonic might had already swept toward them.

Gulp!

The guards were horrified!

How could they be this powerful?

"If you're cowards, fall back!"

The commander of the guards roared.

"We will never be cowards!"

The guards roared back!

"At worst, we die! I refuse to believe there isn't a single expert willing to fight for our Human Race!"

"Could it be that those experts are all cowards, allowing those Demon Race brats to act wantonly within Human Race territory?!"

The commander of the guards roared.

"Even if every expert is a coward, we will never be cowards!"

One of the guards roared!

"That's right, never cowards!"

Though the guards were weak, and their commander was merely at the early King Realm.

Their momentum was anything but weak.

They faced death as though returning home!

Before the mighty Thousand Demon Guard, they showed not the slightest intention of retreating.

"Kill!"

"That's right! How can we Human Race cultivators be cowards?!"

Some cultivators were stirred until their blood boiled and joined the ranks as well.

"Even if those experts of our Human Race are all cowards, we are not!"

Their furious shouts echoed outward.

At this moment, some experts from the various major powers fell silent.

Some clenched their fists, unable to stop themselves from wanting to act.

But whenever they thought of how their sects would inevitably suffer if they intervened, it was as though shackles had locked them in place!

Rumble, rumble, rumble!

The Thousand Demons attacked.

Vast demonic might came rolling in.

Ten li... five li...

The terrifying momentum of the Thousand Demon Guard was already bearing down on them.

The guards' battle formation swayed as though it might collapse at any moment.

Like a lone boat amid raging waves.

It could sink at any time!

Yet every one of them gritted their teeth and held on, their gazes resolute as they faced death without fear!

"The Gan Royal Estate has committed a grave act of rebellion. By the order of Empress Tianfei, the Gan Royal Estate shall be trampled flat today!"

A voice echoed from within the Demon Race army.

"All unrelated parties, withdraw. Surrender, Gan Royal Estate guards, and you shall not be killed!"

The commander of the Thousand Demon Guard looked at the fragile Gan Royal Estate garrison ahead.

Their courage was commendable!

But it was utterly useless!

One charge would trample them into mud!

They had no power to resist at all!

"As soldiers of the Human Race, we shall never surrender to demon brats!"

"So what if we die in battle!"

The commander of the guards roared.

"Then go die!"

The Thousand Demon Guard commander's gaze turned icy.

These humans still looked down on the Demon Race so much. They were truly detestable!

Boom!

Terrifying demonic power formed into a gigantic hand that propped up the heavens, slamming viciously toward the guards!

He was a great demon of the Emperor Realm!

By himself, he could wipe out this entire garrison!

"Attack!"

The commander of the guards roared.

His aura erupted, and at that moment, every guard unleashed their own aura as well.

They raised the long blades in their hands.

"Slash!"

Boom!

They swung their blades down!

In that instant, the power of the guards gathered together, converging into that single strike.

Rumble!

With the strength of the entire garrison, bolstered by the battle formation, a gigantic long blade slashed fiercely against that enormous hand!

Rumble!

The giant hand split into two.

Yet it did not vanish completely.

"Slash again!"

The guards swung their blades once more.

Boom!

At last, they destroyed the giant hand!

Every guard was drenched in sweat, their breathing ragged, their energy greatly depleted.

With the battle formation's support and the combined strength of all of them, it had taken two strikes merely to block one attack from their opponent!

An Emperor Realm great demon was actually this powerful!

And their opponent had not even gone all out!

"So this is the Qiankun Battle Formation?"

The experts of the various great powers were all deeply astonished.

The Gan Royal Estate had once been the strongest of the three great royal estates bearing different surnames.

Now, though it had declined, it still possessed considerable strength.

This garrison was exceptionally remarkable!

They had actually relied on the Qiankun Battle Formation and their combined strength to withstand an Emperor Realm expert's attack.

Although it had merely been a casual strike, it had still come from an Emperor Realm expert!

"This should be the Small Qiankun Battle Formation. Only the Qiankun Guard can wield the true Qiankun Battle Formation!"

"Oh? Then can the Qiankun Guard withstand this Demon Race army?"

"If it were the Qiankun Guard of old, they naturally could. But now..."

The Gan Royal Estate had declined.

The Qiankun Guard's strength was also far inferior to what it had once been!

"Die!"

The Thousand Demon Guard commander flew into a rage.

His attack had actually been blocked.

Boom!

Demonic aura surged, his momentum soaring in an instant as demonic power condensed into a terrifying wolf demon!

Roar!

A huge phantom of a wolf demon appeared in midair, transforming into an attack that blasted viciously toward the guards!

"Slash!"

The guards swung their blades in attack.

But how could they possibly block this strike?

The attack had already arrived!

"Fight!"

The guards roared, their eyes resolute. They did not retreat, facing death as though returning home!

Boom!

A figure suddenly descended, standing before the guards.
