Protect Our Clan Leader

...

At the same time as the Immortal Supreme was holding back the pursuers, Wang Ying Xuan, Wang Licui, and others had already led the captives quite a distance away.

Under the night sky, hundreds of ragged captives stumbled through the mountains and forests, helping each other run in silence, daring not to pause for even a moment. Yet, even though they used all their strength, moving much faster than ordinary humans, they still couldn't match the pursuit soldiers from the Gluttonous Demon King's Castle.

Their shackles restricted the flow of Mysterious Energy, and these shackles couldn't be unlocked quickly. Even with Wang Licui and Wang Ying Xuan using various means to help, their speed couldn't compare with the elite soldiers of the castle.

Moreover, after traveling hundreds of miles overnight, their stamina was gradually wearing out. The injuries on their bodies and the negative effects of their weakened condition were severely amplified, making them even slower.

Zhang Huaibing continuously poured Mysterious Energy into the Wind Spirit Pearl, using its power to speed up everyone, yet he still felt worried and couldn't help but send a voice transmission to Wang Ying Xuan: "Sister Ying Xuan, are you really sure Princess Su Yun will send someone to meet us? What if she doesn't understand the message you wanted to convey?"

They were on the Demonic Clan's territory, miles away from the Human race's defense zone. If the Immortal Supreme's projection was destroyed and there was no assistance, these captives were doomed!

"Then it means Sister Su Yun is too stupid to be the next Immortal Emperor. I will definitely stop her from ascending," Wang Ying Xuan was using the Codex's power to boost everyone's morale and replied in transmitted voice, "As for us, we can only abandon the burdensome captives and escape ourselves."

Wang Ying Xuan had already considered various possibilities, and naturally, this situation was within her considerations. Of course, she estimated that the likelihood of this situation occurring was less than one percent.

"That's too heartless, isn't it?" Zhang Huaibing's face twitched.

"Brother Huaibing with feelings and loyalty, if you want to stay and die with them, I have no objections." Wang Ying Xuan admired him and patted his shoulder, "I will definitely erect a monument in the Immortal Palace for your heroic sacrifice."

"Uh..."

After Wang Ying Xuan said this, Zhang Huaibing's facial muscles twitched again, realizing he was being foolishly impulsive again.

Fortunately, Princess Su Yun didn't disappoint.

While they were desperately running, tremendous powers suddenly soared up from a distant mountain hollow.

Then, dazzling Lights streaked across the night sky, like a cluster of falling stars shooting towards them.

The power was magnificent, and the momentum was earth-shaking.

Especially the three leading ones, who were as brilliant as the bright moon in the night sky.

These three were obviously the Human race's three Transcendent Void Realm big shots.

Clearly, they noticed the commotion at the Gluttonous Demon King's Castle and the movements of the pursuing soldiers and knew the time was right, promptly coming to support.

The grand display was obviously a signal indicating "Our side has come to aid, quickly connect."

Seeing this, the captives who were already nearing exhaustion felt their spirits rejuvenated, hope sparking in their eyes.

"It's the Human cultivators! Our reinforcements have arrived!"

"Aunt Lici, shout quickly!" Wang Ying Xuan's spirits lifted, "The reinforcements arrived faster than I anticipated."

"Roar~~"

Wang Licui immediately let out a powerful roar.

In an instant, the roar was akin to the bellow of a prehistoric beast, the sound waves thundering and causing the surrounding dense forest to rustle.

However, after roaring, she felt puzzled. Why did she roar just because Yuxuan asked her to?

"Is that Ying Xuan and Lici?"

Following the roar, the reinforcements flying from the sky spotted them in the dense forest, and the Light's speed suddenly increased. In the blink of an eye, many experts descended from the sky.

Hundreds of Human elite stepped through various Lights, penetrating the night, their overwhelming force filling the sky, bringing unparalleled safety.

This scene truly felt like the descent of heavenly troops.

Many captives, rescued at last, found their eyes brimming with tears.

They hadn't cried when tortured, hadn't cried when almost cooked, didn't cry during their exhausting escape, but at this moment, they couldn't hold back.

Even Zhang Huaibing felt a sense of surviving disaster, his long-tensed nerves finally relaxing.

Among everyone, the most composed were probably Wang Licui, Wang Ying Xuan, and Lan Wanyi. Wang Licui and Lan Wanyi were always carefree, and Wang Ying Xuan had everything under control.

The Demonic World's tunneling rat was startled by the sight of so many Human cultivators, shrinking beside Wang Licui's feet, not daring to move.

Within a few breaths, all reinforcements had landed, surrounding Wang Ying Xuan and the captives in the center. Some Purple Abode Realm cultivators autonomously spread out, serving as guards.

"Hahaha!"

In the crowd, Wu Yinghao and the three Transcendent Void big shots stepped forward together, laughing heartily as they gave Wang Licui and the others a big thumbs up: "Well done! I knew those explosions were caused by you!"

"Yinghao, don't babble." Old Ancestor Wei Long reminded sternly, "This place is too close to the Gluttonous Demon King's Castle, and with another castle on each wing serving as a support point, it's truly not suitable to linger."
