“From the looks of it, they won’t be able to hold on for much longer.” Shen Yanxiao crouched on the boulder and surveyed the situation. Demons and humans were no different to her. But she finally found a bunch of demons after looking for a long ti; if she just let the, slipped away now, wouldn’t it be a pity?.
Shen Yanxiao touched her chin and thought of a good idea.
She initially wanted to challenge the advanced-ranked demons to a one-on-one fight, but with so many low-ranked demons around, it would be troubleso to continue with her endeavour. So why not...
The rcenaries at the bottom of the boulder looked at the demons with despair.
Fang Qiu gasped for air as blood continued to flow from the wound on his arm.
Their team had co to the mountain range to search for a dicinal ingredient. As the leader of a large rcenary group, Fang Qiu led about four hundred rcenaries into the forest. They did not expect to encounter such a situation.
Demons in the mountains and forests were different from those in cities. The forr were rarely any large-scale groups. Fang Qiu had co with the hope that he would get lucky. He did not expect to encounter such a calamity.
If he were to rely on his strength alone, it wouldn’t be impossible for him to break out of the encirclent. After all, he was already a Great Swordsman. Even if he could not defeat the enemy, he could still protect his life.
However...
Fang Qiu felt helpless as he looked at the man and woman who were being protected by the rcenaries.
They were looking for a dicinal ingredient called the Joy-Sucking Grass, an ingredient that was needed to treat the leader of the Blizzard rcenary Group. And the identity of the young man and woman behind him were not to be belittled. The young man was the son of one of the five great rcenary groups in the God Wind Alliance, the Iron Blood rcenary Group’s leader, Gu Feng. The young woman was the daughter of their city lord, Long Xueyao.
Since the Joy-Sucking Grass was needed for the city lord to treat his illness, Long Xueyao decided to tag along as a show of filial piety. As for Gu Feng, he deliberately followed Long Xueyao.
But, they were still exploring the Forsaken Land. At first, Fang Qiu did not want to bring the young master and young miss with him. However, the leaders of the Blizzard rcenary Group and the Iron Blood rcenary Group had sent orders for him to bring them with him. They had even hired advanced-level professionals for protection.
In the end, Fang Qiu finally agreed.
However, when they encountered the demons, the twenty advanced-level experts quickly lost their lives to the two advanced-ranked demons. Fang Qiu had also lost more than half of his rcenaries, forcing him into a corner.
Fang Qiu wanted to escape, but if he were to do that, Long Xueyao and Gu Feng would definitely lose their lives. And if the two leaders were to discover their children’s death, it would also be his ti to die.
Thus, Fang Qiu had no choice but to fight. However, his heart bled as he looked at the two advanced-ranked demons in front of him.
Even though he was a Great Swordsman, he was not a match for two advanced-ranked demons!
Either way, he would die. Fang Qiu felt hopeless.
He could only look at the two advanced-ranked demons and say, “Since you two are the elites among demons, I believe you are not unreasonable. We are from Blizzard City, and even though Blizzard City and demons have not been on good terms for many years, we still have lived in harmony. So, please be magnanimous and let us leave.”
Advanced-ranked demons normally had the sa IQ as humans, so Fang Qiu had no choice but to use that thod to negotiate with these two demons.
“Ha?” One of the advanced-ranked demons laughed wildly as if he had heard the funniest joke in the world. He looked at Fang Qiu and said, “Did I hear wrongly? A human actually dares to negotiate with a demon like that? So what if you are from Blizzard City? You are humans, and we are demons. You are our food.”
