Mo Qi retreated repeatedly, "Don't come closer, quickly stop her."
The others were about to step forward, blocking Mo Qi.
Shui Han suddenly stopped again, looking fixedly at Mo Qi, and everyone else stared at her.
Mo Qi's heart pounded!
Shui Han said, her voice icy, "You wish!"
Then, she turned sideways and walked away.
The crowd naturally parted to create a path, and she walked straight out.
"After you've saved everyone, I will still kill you!" Long after her figure disappeared, her cold voice echoed. Da Feng Novel Network
"With so many people, how can they all be saved?" Mo Qi roared, looking outside the cave.
At this moment, Huo Chengfeng walked in, looking everywhere for Mo Qi but couldn't find him.
Since Mo Qi had shed his disguise, Huo Chengfeng didn't recognize him.
Niu Jiye pointed at Mo Qi, "Here."
Mo Qi nodded.
Huo Chengfeng was stunned for a moment, then cleared his throat, "Manager Lou ran off. He was gone before I got here!"
It was over, a bolt from the blue!
This meant that future battles would be even more difficult, even arduous.
However, this was not the time to dwell on that.
There were still so many people waiting to be treated!
But at this moment, having more people meant tasks could be done more easily.
He mobilized everyone, assigning some to find refining furnaces, others to move beneficial spirit stones, and some to stand guard outside to prevent the demon guards from attacking.
He himself began to sort the raw materials and refine the detoxification spirit stones.
They worked tirelessly for a day and a night, and everyone was detoxified!
Mo Qi was utterly exhausted, with dark circles under his eyes.
Mo Qi wanted to sleep, but Huo Chengfeng told him that it was not safe here. The demon guards could send troops at any moment, and they would be trapped like fish in a barrel.
Therefore, they needed to relocate and find a safe place.
Mo Qi then thought of Mianjiang Mountain.
There were still many people there; perhaps they were still fighting hard?
"We need to find a safe stronghold, but we can't abandon this place. This place can provide us with a continuous supply of spirit stones," Mo Qi said.
"That's right," Niu Jiye nodded. "If we find a stronghold nearby and support each other, they won't dare to attack the Beigou mining field easily."
"Good," Mo Qi nodded. "This place will be defended by Senior Huo and you, and you will be responsible for the spirit stone extraction here. However, all the Sparrow Fragment Spirit Stones are to be destroyed."
This was also a lucrative assignment! Huo Chengfeng and Niu Jiye immediately agreed.
Mo Qi made further arrangements, clearly assigning who would stay and who would go to Mianjiang Mountain.
"Let's go to Mianjiang Mountain," Mo Qi said after making the arrangements.
Figures shot into the sky, emerging from the deep pit, passing through the tunnel, and exiting the mine gate, soaring into the heavens.
Like caged birds breaking free from their prisons, they rushed towards the vast, boundless sky, meeting the brilliant, dazzling sunlight.
Light and shadow intertwined, forming a torrent in the air, tearing through the sky, leaving long trails, endlessly brilliant.
Mo Qi looked back and saw a surging crowd, people moving about, and all of them fixed their gaze upon him.
He inexplicably felt a sense of accomplishment!
But then he remembered that many more people were still in dire straits, and his heart felt a pang of melancholy.
At one moment, he suddenly saw Shui Han. Why was she following them?
Was she really still waiting to kill him?
What a wicked twist of fate!
How could he have saved such an ungrateful wretch?
He couldn't help but quicken his pace.
When the group arrived in the vicinity of Mianjiang Mountain, they saw light and figures flashing from afar.
It seemed the demon guards had indeed sent troops to "suppress the bandits."
Mo Qi immediately turned to Ye Zhixun and said, "We likely have another fierce battle ahead!"
Ye Zhixun said calmly, "What will be, will be!"
As they got closer, they could gradually discern the battle.
A contingent of demon guards was attacking a corner of the mountains below from the air. Myriad divine abilities and spells were unleashed, light and shadow flickered, and the sound was like thunder.
Suddenly, a light barrier rose in front of them. Most of the attacks were blocked outside the barrier.
A small portion of the divine abilities penetrated the formation, only to be dissolved by the divine light within.
Since the demon guards did not enter the formation, Lü Pinghou and the others inside could not do anything to them. However, they also could not break the formation. They could only stare blankly from outside for a long time, attacking intermittently.
However, even a strong formation, without effective counterattacks, could not withstand the onslaught.
Seeing cracks appearing in various parts of the formation, Mo Qi waved his hand, "Attack!"
Myriad divine abilities and spells flashed, striking at the demon guards.
Seeing a large force approaching from behind, the demon guards hurriedly turned their formations and unleashed their divine abilities and treasures, meeting Mo Qi and his group's attacks.
The sound of booming explosions was incessant as divine abilities and spells collided, divine lights crisscrossing and colliding.
Shattered divine lights burst forth like fireworks, scattering colorful fragments in all directions.
Countless fragments shot outwards, occasionally striking soldiers and miners.
The backlash and surging power continuously propagated outwards.
Overall, greater pressure was exerted on the demon guards. Numerous soldiers were knocked to the ground, and some began to retreat.
On the other side, Wei Li and the others within the formation, seeing their reinforcements arrive, were overjoyed and also launched attacks on the demon guards.
For a time, the demon guards were attacked from both sides, unable to cope, and began to flee towards the flanks.
Mo Qi and his group did not pursue. Welcomed by Yin Tiancheng and others, they entered the formation in an orderly fashion.
Mo Qi's first action was to inquire about the usage of the Thunderclap Pills.
Hai Qin and Lü Pinghou both told Mo Qi that they had not yet used the Nine Heavens Divine Arrows, as the situation had not escalated to that point.
This made Mo Qi very relieved, and he unceremoniously took back the Nine Heavens Divine Arrows.
After all, these items could not be refined in the demon realm.
These were limited editions!
Upon entering the formation, Mo Qi discovered that Shui Han had followed them.
Mo Qi quickly walked over and told her, "There are many more mining fields in the demon realm, and we still have many people to save."
Shui Han glanced at him indifferently, "You go ahead with your business, I won't kill you for now."
"Then why are you following us?" Mo Qi asked, puzzled.
"To kill you!"
Mo Qi: "..."
After the two groups merged, Mo Qi immediately convened an emergency meeting with some of the influential figures.
The first item on the agenda was to discuss their future direction and goals.
After much heated discussion, everyone unanimously agreed to officially rebel against the Demon Emperor from this point forward, with Mo Qi declaring himself king. Their goal was to rescue more citizens oppressed by the Demon Emperor, overthrow the Demon Emperor, break out of the demon realm, and ascend to the Lingxiao Palace!
Mo Qi, however, politely declined, stating that he was from the human world and did not advocate for breaking out of the demon realm, as it would bring disaster to the human world.
Ye Zhixun then proposed that they first defeat the Demon Emperor, and as for breaking out of the demon realm, they could discuss it later, and they could ascend directly to the heavens without disturbing the human world.
Mo Qi found this feasible, but he also told everyone that proclaiming themselves king was premature. Their current strength was far from being able to contend with the Demon Emperor, and declaring themselves king would only provoke the Demon Emperor to attack them with full force.
