854 Invasion
Huanhuan was worried about Shuang Yun’s safety and stayed by the altar at the top of the mountain, waiting for Dong Ya to send her a message.
She waited for two days and one night.
Finally, on the third day, the statue in the middle of the altar lit up.
Huanhuan got up and rushed to the statue. She pressed her hands on it. “Dong Ya, is that you?”
Dong Ya’s voice came from the statue.
“It’s me. His Majesty has been saved. He was seriously injured, but fortunately, his life is intact.”
Huanhuan heaved a sigh of relief. “As long as he’s alive.”
In order to let Shuang Yun recover as soon as possible, she specially cut her finger, filled a bamboo tube with it, and placed it in the space.
When Shuang Yun woke up, he was still very weak. He lay in bed and could not move.
He took the bamboo tube from the space and poured the blood into his mouth.
The wounds on his body immediately healed at a visible speed.
Shuang Yun tore off the cotton cloth on his body, got up, wrote a letter, and put it in the space.
Huanhuan quickly received the letter.
She unfolded the letter. He was just chatting with her, but he revealed a very important piece of information.
The demon beasts were probably going to make a big move!
Shuang Yun was attacked by demons this time. There were a lot of them, and they were well-trained.
Their sudden appearance was definitely not a coincidence.
There must be a huge conspiracy behind this!
In order not to wait for death, Huanhuan decided to take the initiative to attack!
She immediately used the altar to contact the three high priests of the medium-sized beast cities and the witch doctors scattered in the various tribes.
Due to the elders ‘fighting for results’, the number of altars on the beast continent had increased drastically. In just dozens of days, more than 30 altars had appeared in the low-level beast cities of various tribes.
When the divine pillars in the altars lit up, the witch doctors thought that the beast gods had descended. They knelt down and prayed for good weather.
It wasn’t until Huanhuan’s voice entered their ears that they understood that the prophet was calling them.
They followed Huanhuan’s instructions and pressed their palms against the divine pillar.
His originally indistinct voice immediately became clear.
Huanhuan said slowly, “The demons are very likely plotting to enter the beast continent. Immediately think of a way to contact the surrounding tribes and lone beasts. Gather all the beasts and try not to be too far from the altars.”
Everyone was in disbelief.
It had been a long time since the beast continent had gone to war.
The most recent battle was the invasion of the demons 16 years ago, but that battle only spread near Rock City and was stopped. It did not affect the others much.
Hence, after a short moment of shock, the witch doctors quickly regained their composure.
They did not take those demons seriously.
They promised to do as they were told, but in fact, there were not many beasts who were really active in contacting the surrounding tribes. Most of the witch doctors and tribes were optimistic that the demons would be defeated soon and did not seriously carry out the mission given by Lady Huanhuan.
At the foot of Mount Dalai lived a small tribe of only 30 beasts.
As usual, they got up at dawn. After a hurried breakfast, all the young and strong male beasts gathered to go out hunting. The only three females and cubs were left in the tribe.
At this moment, a black cloud appeared in the distance.
At first, the beasts thought it was dark clouds.
When the black cloud approached, they realized that they were not dark clouds at all but countless monsters!
The beasts cried out in horror and fled with their females and cubs.
Unfortunately, they were too late.
The monsters had already swarmed over.
They were like locusts passing through, leaving nothing behind.
The 30-something beasts did not even have the time to struggle before they were instantly devoured, leaving behind only white bones.
The monsters continued forward. Behind them was a fully armed demon army.
The leader of the army was Tao Wei.
Beside Tao Wei were Zhi and Yan.
…
Before long, the news of the demons and monsters joining forces to invade the beast continent spread among the tribes and beast cities.
The witch doctors and tribe leaders who had thought nothing of it before were finally nervous.
They did not dare to slack off anymore and tried their best to contact the nearby tribes and beasts. They gathered near the altar and listened to Lady Huanhuan’s arrangements. They formed self-defense teams and officially began the war to protect their home!
In the 10,000 Beast Temple, Huanhuan’s expression was very ugly.
“Are you really leaving?”
Sang Ye said calmly, “Now that the demons and monsters have joined forces, it’s very disadvantageous to the beasts. I have to return immediately and bring the demon army back to my territory.”
“The demons are already under Tao Wei’s control. If you go back, you’ll probably be like a sheep entering a tiger’s den!”
“I’m the commander of the demons. They have to listen to me.”
Huanhuan asked, “What if they don’t listen to you?”
“Then I’ll beat them until they listen.”
“…”
Huanhuan was confident in Sang Ye’s strength, but there were so many demons. How could he defeat them alone?!
She did not agree with Sang Ye going back at this dangerous moment.
Sang Ye said, “Even if you don’t agree, I’ll leave. The difference is whether you watch me leave or I sneak away behind your back.”
He always looked cold as if he didn’t care about anything, but as long as he made a decision, there was no possibility of changing it.
Huanhuan knew this very well.
She felt a headache coming on. “I’m worried about letting you go back alone. It’s too dangerous.”
Xue Ling, who had been sitting at the side without saying anything, suddenly suggested, “Let Clement go back with him.”
Huanhuan was stunned. “Even with Clement, they’re only father and son. How can they deal with the entire demon race?”
Bai Di explained at the right time, “Clement was born as the master of demons. His strength and Sang Ye’s strength are enough to make the entire demon race wary.”
Since Xue Ling and Bai Di had said so, Huanhuan could only choose to compromise.
“Then let Clement accompany Sang Ye back.”
Sang Ye raised his hand and gently touched her cheek. His voice was still cold, but his tone was surprisingly gentle. “Thank you.”
Huanhuan’s face was still unhappy. “Shuang Yun just got into trouble and we finally saved him. Now, you and Clement are going back to the demon race. All of you are making me worry!”
“When we get back, you can punish us however you want.”
Huanhuan crawled into his arms and hugged his neck tightly. “I can’t bear to punish you. I just want you to be safe.”
Sang Ye hugged her. “We’ll all be safe.”
Since he had already decided to leave, Sang Ye left Rock City that afternoon with his son.
