Much as he hated to admit it, Flame Demon Rat had a keen eye.
His strike had hit the Human Race right in its weak spot.
Shennong's force had only been meant to hold the Star Race back.
It had no capacity to deal with the Devil Race at all.
The moment Flame Demon Rat struck, he exposed the Human Race's intentions.
Whoever had orchestrated this had seized the timing with uncanny precision.
"Alas, if that is the case, then I really have failed the trust the Human Sovereign placed in me."
Shennong sighed softly.
Though this had been an unforeseen event beyond his control,
he still could not reconcile himself to it.
But what good did that do? Faced with an entire Devil Race legion, he had no means of dealing with it.
Just then, Fuxi, far away in the South, also received the news.
How could he possibly not be keeping an eye on Shennong's movements?
After discovering the disturbance at Shennong's camp, Fuxi was not disheartened. Instead, delight rose in his heart.
"Flame Demon Rat, you've finally let your fox's tail show."
"I've been searching for you for so long. I thought you'd already fled back to the Devil Race!"
"To think you still dared to wander around the battlefield."
This was something Fuxi truly had not expected.
Fuxi looked at the battlefield map. "Finish this battle swiftly, then return to reinforce Shennong."
Beside him, Xuanyuan nodded. "Yes, Your Majesty."
The Devil Ancestor force they were clearing out this time was only an ordinary legion. They wanted to break through the Human Race's blockade and enter the heart of the Primordial World, which naturally put them in Fuxi's sights.
Those bent solely on wreaking havoc would receive no mercy. They would be slain outright.
Their battle proceeded
