Chapter 161 - Letting It Bleed (1/2)
“Let the demon monarchs enter the human world?” Supremacy Qin Wu and Supremacy Bai Yaoyue’s expressions changed.
Xu Yingwu looked at the two Supremacies in front of him and indifferently said, “Before the demons invaded, Black Sand Grotto-Heaven had been hunting down my Two World Island. Archean Mountain secretly encouraged their actions, hoping that they would destroy Two World Island completely.”
“We never attacked,” said Qin Wu calmly with a smile.
“My Black Sand Grotto-Heaven hasn’t hunted you down for the past 800 years,” said Bai Yaoyue. “The early days of the demon invasion weren’t very intense. Two World Island should’ve recovered long ago.”
“We did.” Xu Yingwu nodded, then sneered. “But look at the territory that Two World Island controls! Miasma-covered jungles, mountains, and countless islands. Both your sects occupy vast swathes of land that have huge populations! Your rich, vast lands allow for a higher population than what our Two World Island can attain with the territory we control.”
“In terms of size, Two World Island oversees a much bigger area,” said Bai Yaoyue with a sneer.
Black Sand Grotto-Heaven and Two World Island had a blood feud—one that caused irreconcilable hatred.
Black Sand Grotto-Heaven once had a chance of unifying the world under their banner. Back then, Imperial Lord Black Sand was the strongest human expert. He had five Creation Supremacies under his command. Only Archean Mountain barely held on against their forces. Archean Mountain turtled-up and relied on the inheritances left behind by their forefathers. They hoped to defend until Imperial Lord Black Sand died—which would lead to the inevitable decline of Black Sand Grotto-Heaven.
However, Black Sand Grotto-Heaven fractured internally. They would’ve survived the internal turmoil, but Elder Yin Yang acted against Imperial Lord Black Sand at a critical moment! As a general under the strongest human expert—Imperial Lord Black Sand—Elder Yin Yang was deeply trusted by Imperial Lord Black Sand. To everyone’s surprise, Elder Yin Yang acted against Imperial Lord Black Sand, causing him to be severely injured.
Left severely injured, Imperial Lord Black Sand had to face the internal turmoil within his sect, which led to his death.
As this happened, Elder Yin Yang led a group of followers away and established the Two World Island Sect.
It took over 100 hundred years before Black Sand Grotto-Heaven recovered from the inner turmoil and reunited as one. Imperial Lord Black Sand’s faction won, and they hated Two World Island to the bone! They began hunting down Two World Island. A starving camel is still bigger than a horse, so for Black Sand Grotto-Heaven—the sect that had nearly unified the world under their banner—they could easily hunt down Two World Island.
Ever since its creation, Two World Island had been resisting Black Sand Grotto-Heaven constantly. They had to be on the run. It was truly tragic. Only when the demons invaded did the three sects abandon their hatred and stop fighting. Two World Island took this opportunity to recover.
“Two World Island does indeed oversee more territory than Archean Mountain and Black Sand Grotto-Heaven, but they are all jungles, mountains, and islands,” said Xu Yingwu. “Although we have the largest territory, we have the smallest population. Within our territory, there’s a super-large city pa.s.s, the same as both your sects’ territories. However, we have way more small and medium-sized city pa.s.ses than any of you.
“Our Two World Island has fewer G.o.dfiends than both your sects!” Xu Yingwu shook his head and sneered. “I can ignore the small city pa.s.ses as they are easily defended. However, for the past few years, Two World Island’s G.o.dfiends have been defending against the demons desperately. Unfortunately, we have fewer G.o.dfiends than either of your sects. What can we do? We are sacrificing our lives just to defend!
“Archean Mountain and Black Sand Grotto-Heaven are already feeling the pinch when 20 G.o.dfiend disciples are dying a year. As for our Two World Island? Sixty-one G.o.dfiend disciples died last year!” Xu Yingwu stared at Qin Wu and Bai Yaoyue venomously. “A decade ago, we were losing 20 G.o.dfiend disciples a year, but last year, 60 died. If this continues, Two World Island’s Great Solar G.o.dfiends will all be dead in ten years!”
Qin Wu and Bai Yaoyue fell silent.
Two World Island was the weakest of the three supreme human sects, and they also protected the largest territory. Their territory had the most World Entrances.
“When all the Great Solar G.o.dfiends are dead, what will be the point of us existing?” Xu Yingwu sneered. “Without giving the weaker G.o.dfiends a chance to grow, the human race will lose an entire generation! In a few centuries, the current Marquis and Regis G.o.dfiends will all die of old age! Only the Supremacies will be alive to defend the entire human world! The demons are invading the human world like locusts. How many legs and arms do you have? The speed we can kill the demons isn’t as fast as their reproduction speed!
