“Sky Devil end-phase!!”
Hearing this news left a shocked expression on the middle-aged Divine Lieutenant’s face.
“Sky Devil end-phase is equivalent to a human Dao Profound Realm’s ability. That’s a top rate top exponent among the demon tribe! He’s not someone that an army like us can fight against.”
The middle-aged Divine Lieutenant’s cultivation was merely in Heart Profound Realm end-phase. As compared with a Sky Devil end-phase, it was a difference of an entire large realm. It wasn’t something that the other party could rival, not to mention his subordinates.
Seeing his worried look, Huang Yueli immediately continued, “I heard that the Sky Devil seemed to be stuck at a bottleneck in the process of advancing. The reason why the demon tribe attacked us was mainly because they wanted to capture some human and god clan practitioners to refine as blood pills.”
The middle-aged Divine Lieutenant muttered irresolutely, “No wonder… no wonder their attacks had become so frequent recently. So, this is why…”
Xia Yunxi nodded. “But that Sky Devil is on the verge of advancing and he’s probably focused totally on cultivating. So he wouldn’t personally come and command the war. I believe that we won’t be in fatal danger temporarily.”
The middle-aged Divine Lieutenant delved into deep thoughts and had no choice but to admit that what she said was right.
“Sigh, I hope it’s true! Our camp is the nearest to the demon tribe’s control area among the other twelve camps so we must hold the fort. Otherwise, the demon tribe manages to break through our defense and go nearer to Blessed City! That’s right, your abilities are rather outstanding. I happen to have two team leaders who died in the battle yesterday and I can tell that you are suitable candidates…”
When he said that, all the practitioners were stunned.
Most practitioners who were just enlisted would need to start from the base.
Although Huang Yueli and Xia Yunxi had revealed their skills earlier, the devil stones that they had accumulated were worth around three to four thousand military credits.
But they had just arrived after all. If they were members of the god clan, that was passable. But now, they were disguised as humans!
If a human practitioner who had just enlisted was promoted to be a team leader, it would be hard to convince the others.
Huang Yueli and Xia Yunxi were surprised as well, but their worries were different from other people.
Huang Yueli frowned and asked in a muted tone, “This… Divine Lieutenant, we want to serve in the military very much and defeat the devils with our brothers together. But unfortunately, we have something urgent to do and must head back to Blessed City immediately. So we can only thank you for your kind intention.”
“What??” The Divine Lieutenant said in shock, “You specially teleported to Blessed City, isn’t it to be enlisted??”
Huang Yueli and Xia Yunxi shook their heads at the same time.
The middle-aged Divine Lieutenant’s expression sunk and he spoke in displeasure, “The current situation is so dire. As humans, you’re not thinking about joining the allied armies to fight for the humans. Instead, you’re trying to escape to Blessed City in such an urgent situation? The two of you are so cowardly, do you even have the qualifications to be a practitioner?”
“Cough cough, this… Divine Lieutenant, please don’t be mistaken. We really have some urgent matters!”
Huang Yueli also felt a little awkward. Her words did sound a little like they were planning to desert the army.
But in reality, she wanted very much to stay and accumulate the military merits. But she was even more worried that Li Moying would be worried about her if she had disappeared!
In her heart, nothing else was more important than Li Moying.
However, the middle-aged Divine Lieutenant could not accept their decision.
