"Hmph, which demon ancestor are you? How dare you be so arrogant before this general, do you think my iron hammer is made of mud!"
Liang Shitai roared, his primal energy surging, suppressing the man with the Qilin arms. The momentum was so immense that the others couldn't help but glance over.
"Hmph?"
"This human is so powerful!"
The woman with a blood-red spot on her brow spoke coldly, but her eyes sparkled with surprise.
"I am the Demon Ape Ancestor, a subordinate of the Heavenly Sword Desolate Lord!"
"A mere human, the most lowly race in the Savage Realm, why do you not kneel before me?"
The tallest among them, the Demon Ape Ancestor with a pair of Qilin arms, stood up like a giant. His eyes looked down upon Liang Shitai and He Yuanqing as if they were ants.
"Human?"
The man in the red robe, with fiery red feathers on his back, his gaze like ice, spoke coldly: "My kind, Zi Mu of the Fire Crow clan, met his end in your country!"
"I wasn't looking for you, yet you rushed here to die!"
"Demon Ancestor Fire Crow, it's not just Zi Mu who met his end in human territory. My clan's new generation prodigy, Fang Yu, ventured deep into human lands and was annihilated by this Great Han Imperial Dynasty!"
The Blood Feather Demon Ancestor with the blood-red spot on her brow, caressing her long sleeves, her eyes filled with cold killing intent, glared at Liang Shitai and He Yuanqing.
"You two quickly leave. We are here by order of the Great Han Human Emperor to investigate the palace of our Human Imperial Dynasty. If you dare to speak such arrogant words again, we will surely cleave you here!"
He Yuanqing was furious. The entrance to the secret treasury palace of the Imperial Dynasty was right behind these six demon ancestors. As for the other demon ancestors and desolate lords, they had likely already entered.
"Hmph, Great Han Human Emperor?"
"How laughable. That might have some use if we were in human territory, but this is the Heavenly Demon Desolate Domain, not a place for you humans to run wild. Are you seeking death?"
The old man with emerald green eyes and a gaunt figure spoke calmly, but his words revealed killing intent.
"Demon Ancestor Snake Tail, speak less nonsense. We are ordered by the Desolate Lord to guard the entrance. How can we allow humans to act so presumptuously here? If you ask me, we should capture them and keep them as pets, wouldn't that be wonderful!"
The Blood Phoenix Demon Ancestor in the red robe looked at Liang Shitai and He Yuanqing with a smile.
"Those who defy the Human Emperor's decree!"
"Die!" Su Dan Novel Network
Liang Shitai roared, his gaze filled with killing intent. His hands clenched, and two iron hammers condensed, each as large as five liters!
"General Liang, be quick!"
He Yuanqing stepped forward, holding two silver hammers in his hands, which glinted with a chilling light.
"Humans, you seek death!"
...
"Reporting to the Commander, Military Advisor, and all Generals, the Ancient Mang Bull army of the Heavenly Demon Desolate Domain is advancing towards our Great Han border!"
On the northeastern border of the Great Han, the Qilin Legion, led by Meng Tian, was stationed here by order, strictly guarding against the beasts of the Ancient Desolate Domain.
"The 500,000-strong Yan Mang army is still stationed in the Blood Mang tribe and has not advanced!"
A Qilin soldier knelt on one knee and reported respectfully.
"The Yan Mang army shows no unusual activity. Generals, it seems the Yan Mang tribe wishes to reap the benefits of others' struggle!"
Xun An stroked his beard and looked at Meng Tian, Du Guxin, Hua Mulan, and Fu Hao, along with the other generals.
Since the Great Han was promoted to an Imperial Dynasty, the strength of the Qilin Legion had also surged. There were three main generals and two deputy generals, with a total army of over 600,000, a formidable force.
"The Yan Mang and Snake Tail Great Snake tribes have always been at odds with the Ancient Mang Bull and Demon Ape tribes. Their enmity, accumulated over a million years, is irreconcilable. They both wish to annihilate the other and dominate the four directions!"
Du Guxin smiled slightly, his gaze towards Xun An, and said calmly: "The Ancient Mang Bull lineage has mobilized 500,000 troops and is pressing against our Great Han border. Another 500,000 troops of the Yan Mang army are stationed at the Blood Mang tribe. If we engage in battle, this Yan Mang army can reach us at any time. We must be vigilant. May I ask what advice the Military Advisor has to break this?"
"The Yan Mang army is stationed in the Blood Mang tribe, which is already in the heart of the Heavenly Demon Desolate Domain. Once our Great Han forces venture deep into this area, the Snake Tail Great Snake tribe will undoubtedly intervene. At that time, it will trigger a full-scale confrontation between our Great Han and the Heavenly Demon Desolate Domain. Although the Human Emperor has ordered us to guard against the beast armies, there are experts in the Nirvana realm in the Heavenly Demon Desolate Domain."
"The situation in the far north is still unclear. We need to proceed with caution!"
Fu Hao raised her hand, her expression solemn.
"No matter!"
Xun An smiled.
"Generals, the Human Emperor's intention is for us to exploit the enmity between the Ancient Mang Bull lineage and the Snake Tail Great Snake and Yan Mang tribes."
Xun An stood up, his voice calm: "Everyone, the third elder of the Ancient Mang Bull lineage, Hu Lifu, is leading 500,000 troops to press against the border. In terms of both troop strength and top experts, they are far inferior to our Qilin Legion!"
"What is the Military Advisor's meaning?"
Meng Tian sat steadily at the head of the table, clad in armor, his bearing heroic. Especially after breaking through to the Creation Realm, his primal energy was even more profound.
"Hahaha!"
Xun An laughed and shook his head: "Borrow a path to attack the Snake God Temple!"
"It is only a matter of time before our Great Han troops enter the Heavenly Demon Desolate Domain. The Yan Mang and Snake Tail Great Snake tribes are intermarried, intertwined, and at times, indistinguishable. If the two tribes unite, they will create tremendous obstacles for our army. Both now and for future development, one of these two tribes must be eliminated first!"
"Hmm!"
Hua Mulan nodded.
"Military Advisor, no matter how much the Ancient Mang Bull lineage and the Snake Tail Great Snake and Yan Mang tribes disagree, they would never ally with us humans to weaken the Snake Tail Great Snake and Yan Mang tribes!"
"The Ancient Mang Bull lineage will certainly not agree easily!"
"What if we offer enough sincerity?"
Xun An stroked his beard, smiling slightly, his demeanor full of confidence.
"Please speak, Military Advisor!"
Du Guxin extended his palm.
"Generals, Hu Lifu is leading 500,000 troops to press against our Great Han border. In terms of military strength, our Qilin Legion is far superior. In terms of top combat power, we have Du Guxin, a top expert in the Creation Realm. Therefore, this army of 500,000 can be annihilated with a flip of a hand, posing no threat!"
"Hmm, the army is not a threat, but where does this 'gift' come from?"
Meng Tian nodded and inquired.
"Hu Lifu's 500,000 troops must be eliminated, but Hu Lifu himself must not be killed."
Xun An shook his head.
"Military Advisor, what do you mean by this?"
Fu Hao stood up, her expression puzzled.
Xun An moved his steps: "Firstly, this will make the Ancient Mang Bull lineage slightly lower its guard. As long as Hu Lifu is alive, the Ancient Mang Bull lineage will not mobilize large armies again; secondly, Hu Lifu still has great use."
"Everyone, the moment we capture Hu Lifu alive, it will be the perfect time for our Qilin Legion to march north and take down the Yan Mang. Their 500,000 troops, but their commander must not be killed either!"
