Xuan Yuanjun and the others certainly could not let Xun Wuying charge forward alone. Even with Demon God supporting him, it would not be enough.
They immediately struck together.
Seeing Xuan Yuanjun and the others coming to kill him, Jiang Hengdao chuckled inwardly.
He had already seen through their true condition. The peak of the strength they had gained by burning their essence blood had passed.
Now they were merely burning essence blood to barely hold on.
In principle, he only needed to stall a little longer, and their essence blood would run dry.

But by then, what pleasure would there be in killing people who had no strength to resist and had given up resisting altogether?
If he was going to kill them, he would do it while they were still desperately struggling, while they still believed there was hope.
Only that would give him unparalleled satisfaction and be more effective for his Ruthlessness Dao.
