Chapter 328 - The threat of a million demon monarchs (1/2)

Meng Chuan transformed into a lightning snake and arrived outside the eastern city wall in the blink of an eye. He charged at the third Firmament demon monarchs. Wherever the lightning snake pa.s.sed, third Firmament demon monarchs collapsed.

“Not good.”

“Run!”

“Quick, flee.” Seeing how fast the lightning snake was, the other third Firmament demon monarchs were alarmed. They immediately burrowed into the ground and fled.

The lightning snake stopped, and Meng Chuan’s figure appeared. Only 51 third Firmament demon monarchs died out of more than 200. The rest fled in fear?

The demon monarchs fled decisively upon sensing the threat of death! It was only thanks to Meng Chuan being the fastest in the world that he had killed 51 third Firmament demon monarchs in such a short time. As for those that fled underground, Meng Chuan could do nothing. After all, he was but a single person.

Swoosh. Meng Chuan transformed into a lightning snake and rushed towards the northern city wall.

Liu Qiyue flew south. She released Quintessential Essence threads; they surged towards the southern city wall.

These demon monarchs are coming from outside the city. They didn’t enter the city from underground. From the looks of it, the demons also know of the existence of Demon Seeking PaG.o.das.

If demon monarchs charged into the city from underground and slaughtered the population wantonly, it would result in a terrifying destruction. Therefore, Changfeng City had built six Demon Seeking PaG.o.das aboveground. Another six Demon Seeking PaG.o.das were built 2.5 kilometers underground and were distributed intricately. When a large group of demon monarchs released their demonic powers, they wouldn’t be able to escape the notice of all the Demon Seeking PaG.o.das. Traveling underground without the usage of demonic powers was much slower. Furthermore, they would create too big a commotion. The G.o.dfiends responsible for underground defense would sense the intense vibrations.

If they want to enter the city from below, they’ll have to wait for orders five kilometers underground. Only after they travel upwards for five kilometers will they reach the city. It will take them the same amount of time to travel 50 kilometers on the surface. That amount of time is sufficient for Archean Mountain’s reinforcements to arrive.

Ordinary demon monarchs weren’t fast to begin with. They would take about 300 seconds to travel 50 kilometers on land.

An ordinary demon monarch will arrive within 30 seconds if they fly from four kilometers away. Archean Mountain reinforcements won’t be able to arrive in time. Ah Chuan is the fastest in the world. He can travel about 500 kilometers in 30 seconds. Liu Qiyue pondered. She used Phoenix Flight to fly 15 kilometers. She was still 20 kilometers away from the southern city wall. At that moment, her Quintessential Essence threads had already crossed the city wall and attacked the demon monarchs.

Upon sensing a Marquis G.o.dfiend’s Quintessential Essence threads, over 500 demon monarchs at the southern wall immediately fled underground. However, the Quintessential Essence threads were too fast. Liu Qiyue killed over 100 demon monarchs.

Not good. They’re about to enter the city. High in the sky, Liu Qiyue immediately saw over 200 third Firmament demon monarchs arriving at the city wall. The demon monarchs had varying speeds. The faster demon monarchs deliberately slowed down to stay with the main group of demon monarchs.

Swis.h.!.+ Swis.h.!.+ Swis.h.!.+

The demon monarchs jumped over the city wall and tried to start a ma.s.sacre. The Quintessential Essence threads were unable to threaten them.

In her anxiety, Liu Qiyue saw a bolt of lightning rush over. Wherever it pa.s.sed, demon monarchs died.

“Not good.”

“Run!”

Just as the third Firmament demon monarchs leaped over the city wall and began their ma.s.sacre, they saw a bolt of lightning flash past them. The demon monarchs died one after another. They fled without any hesitation.

Meng Chuan looked into the distance. Many buildings and trees were reduced to ruins. Blood flowed from some of the ruins.

The city was too large. Meng Chuan first went to the eastern city wall before going to the northern city wall. After that, he went to the western city wall. Marchioness Plum Snow was slower than Liu Qiyue, so the western city wall was in a worse state. Finally, he came to the southern city wall.

“Ah Chuan.” Liu Qiyue flew to Meng Chuan’s side.

“Over 600 demon monarchs died. The rest fled,” said Meng Chuan. “Changfeng City has suffered significant losses. Hundreds of people have died on the western city wall. The southern city wall suffered the most casualties, probably tens of thousands.”

He was just one step slower.

More than 200 third Firmament demon monarchs charged into the city. They had fled after being slaughtered, but still, tens of thousands of people had died. This was the destructive power of demon monarchs.

If only he could be faster!

“What about the other large cities? Are there any requests for help?” asked Liu Qiyue.

“Two large cities have requested help. One is over 5,000 kilometers away from us, while the other is 3,000 kilometers away from us. Archean Mountain immediately arranged for reinforcements to be sent. They have withdrawn the requests for backup,” said Meng Chuan.

Marchioness Plum Snow flew over from afar. She had seen more than 200 places in the city’s southern region affected by the demon monarchs. She sighed and said, “Changfeng City is too large. Just circling it is a 300-kilometer journey. It’s really impressive that Marquis Eastcalm rescued the four city walls in 30 seconds. If it were just Junior Sister Liu and me, it would be much worse.”

“If it weren’t for Ah Chuan, I would have to use Phoenix’s Nirvana,” said Liu Qiyue. “I’m not sure if my Quintessential Essence threads can reach 50 kilometers even with Phoenix’s Nirvana.”

Meng Chuan looked at his wife and held her hand.
