My wife is a Nine-tailed Heavenly Fox-Chapter 264: Straight to the Dragon’s Den
Chapter 264: Chapter 264: Straight to the Dragon’s Den
The two demon beasts also didn’t dare to rashly launch another attack.
Instead, they circled around the protective shield, ceaselessly weaving back and forth.
"Why don’t we just kill those two, fluttering about in front of us, it’s pretty annoying!"
Haitang Duoduo couldn’t help but speak up.
Wu Xia, however, gave a wicked smile.
"No rush, those two are my bait for fishing!"
Wu Xia didn’t kill the two demon beasts because he had other plans in mind.
These demon beasts didn’t all charge at once, but acted in waves.
Moreover, the number in each wave was quite small.
Every appearance of two demon beasts required using full strength to kill them instantly.
This consumed too much Spiritual Power.
Better to accumulate small wins, and when more of them showed up, unleash a wide-ranging attack with full power.
This way, there would be a lot less consumption, and the killing would be much more efficient.
The Princess suddenly spoke up, "I always feel like a pair of eyes is watching us from the shadows, and it scares me!"
The Princess said, burying her head deep into Wu Xia’s embrace.
Wu Xia gently stroked the Princess’s hair.
Softly, he leaned closer to the Princess’s cheek.
"Don’t worry, I’m here."
Actually, Wu Xia had also noticed that indeed there was an eye somewhere in the Ruins that was constantly watching them.
That eye seemed far yet also seemed close, but no matter what, they couldn’t locate the other party; Wu Xia had also tried sensing carefully.
But Wu Xia wasn’t planning to act recklessly now because the Ruins were complicated.
From the moment he entered, Wu Xia had been observing the conditions inside the Ruins, and it wasn’t as simple as just harbouring demon beasts.
And from the outside up until now, in fighting with the demon beasts,
The strength of these demon beasts was very weak; the Demon God clan wasn’t that weak.
And they were too easy to kill. As everyone knows, the bodies of demon beasts are inherently strong, with phenomenal defensive power.
Even if their strength was weak, their bodies were not, but these demon beasts,
were like glass, shattering at a mere touch.
This was completely unexpected.
So Wu Xia had not been moving forward but was instead holding position at the entrance.
Nobody knew what might be deeper inside the Ruins.
And as the two demon beasts turned around in circles, they seemed unable to find any flaws that could be exploited.
They then let out piercing roars, which were extremely grating to the ears.
The Princess and Haitang Duoduo couldn’t help but cover their ears with their hands.
Wu Xia, however, was unaffected.
Hearing such a sound, Wu Xia understood that these two guys were probably calling their comrades.
Indeed, moments later, a very heavy roar came from a distance.
One saw from afar a vast expanse of demon beasts.
That scene could only be described as magnificent.
"How can this be, so many all at once?"
Haitang Duoduo was stunned.
There had to be at least several hundred demon beasts.
And their sizes were all very large.
Facing such a massive group of demon beasts, with just the three of them trying to clean them out,
That was almost an impossibility.
"No need to worry too much, however many come, we’ll kill them all, none will escape!"
The two demon beasts, seeing their companions arriving, grew even more rampant, furiously attacking the Energy Shield.
Wu Xia looked indifferent as those elements came close, then suddenly a burst of bright light exploded, forming an invisible cage.
The demon beasts were instantly trapped within a golden cage.
Before the Demon Beasts even had a chance to react, the golden cage suddenly emitted a burst of strong Spiritual Power fluctuation, and in an instant, all the Demon Beasts were dead.
Haitang Duoduo and the Princess were completely dumbfounded by this scene.
In just the blink of an eye, the Demon Beasts were reduced to ash and smoke, leaving nothing behind.
And those two Demon Beasts that had been calling for their comrades, upon seeing this scene, were also dumbstruck and turned to leave.
Haitang Duoduo, seeing this, immediately took action, preparing to kill them.
But she was stopped by Wu Xia.
"Let them go, let them return to deliver the message."
Wu Xia’s original plan had been to simply guard the entrance.
As for the rest, he had no other plans for the time being, but after eliminating this group of Demon Beasts,
Wu Xia had a new idea.
That was to pay a visit to the Demon Beasts’ main camp.
"I say we need to root out the problem; the same trick won’t work on these Demon Beasts a second time!"
The Princess voiced her concerns.
After all, these Demon Beasts were not brainless creatures.
On the contrary, they were capable of thought.
And these Demon Beasts would learn from their failures, so repeating the same old tricks would definitely not work.
Wu Xia, however, just smiled and remained silent.
Instead, he continued to lead the two of them forward.
Though the Princess and Haitang Duoduo didn’t understand,
they had no choice but to follow if Wu Xia went, because that was simply the way things were.
Before they left, Emperor Qing had already instructed them that all of this was for the sake of Qing Country.
And they had absolute trust in Wu Xia and the others.
Even before they had spent time with Wu Xia, they had already had great trust in him.
Wu Xia was a man very much worth relying on.
Unsure how long they had been walking, they were surprised to find plants, trees, flowing water, and rivers within the void.
"It looks like we might be about to leave the Ruins behind us, and perhaps once we’re out, we’ll arrive at the Demon Beasts’ lair!" ƒrēewebnoѵёl.cσm
Wu Xia said with a look of triumph.
Along the way, they weren’t blocked by any Demon Beasts.
Moreover, most of the Demon Beasts, seeing Wu Xia, didn’t even dare to intercept him because they couldn’t outrun him.
Meanwhile, several cities in Yingjiang had already fallen one after another.
Their giant Spiritual Power Mechas stood no chance against these Demon Beasts,
being crushed like snacks, torn to shreds one after another.
Yingjiang hastily sought help from Dragon Country,
specifically asking for Wu Xia by name, hoping he would step in.
After this matter was resolved, they promised to offer abundant resources and money, which would be great news for Emperor Qing, a fantastic opportunity.
Because Yingjiang was not short of money.
It would be an excellent chance to squeeze a hefty sum of money out of them, and while at it, scam them for some resources too, but unfortunately,
Wu Xia was no longer in that place, he had gone to another world.
When the higher-ups in Yingjiang learned that Wu Xia had ventured into the world of the Demon Beasts,
they were so shocked that they were at a loss for words.
They were barely surviving against a few hundred Demon Beasts, and almost half the country had fallen.
The whole nation was in a state of panic.
And there was Wu Xia, who had daringly plunged into the lair of the Demon Beasts all alone.
What kind of extraordinary being was this man?
When General Balma heard this news, he almost fainted.
Because by now, their frontlines had nearly completely collapsed.
They needed someone to help them, or else everything would come to an end.
Their country was in dire straits; they needed a savior like Wu Xia.
