Chapter 639: Demon God Sect, If You Don't Listen to Me, I'll Kill You with One Punch (2)

"Do you remember what your mother looks like?" Zhou Shu asked.
"I remember." Xiaoyu'er nodded vigorously.
"Tell me again what to do after you've passed through the altar. Let me see if you've memorized it," Zhou Shu continued.
"After I go over, no matter who I meet, I'll beat them up first and then get them to bring me to the capital of Great Xia to find Mommy," Xiaoyu'er said seriously. "After I find Mommy, I will give her your letter."
"Good girl." Zhou Shu rubbed the little fellow's face. "What if you can't defeat someone?"
"Then run. I can run fast," Xiaoyu'er said proudly.
Zhou Shu nodded. Although the possibility of Xiaoyu'er encountering someone she couldn't defeat on the Ten Nations Continent was almost zero, her mind was still that of a child, which was why he told her this.
"Also, remember. Don't believe anyone unless you find your mother. Do you understand?" Zhou Shu said seriously.
"I remember." Xiaoyu'er waved her hand.
"Do I jump in from here?" Xiaoyu'er pointed at the chessboard.
Zhou Shu looked at Yao Buqi.
Yao Buqi nodded. "This passage is always open. You can go through directly."
"Daddy, I'll go find Mommy then." Then Xiaoyu'er got ready to jump off Zhou Shu's shoulder.
"Go. Be careful on the way. If you can't find your mother, come back the way you came. Do you understand?"
"Don't worry, Daddy. I remember what you said."
The small figure jumped onto the chessboard. There was a ripple on the chessboard, and then Xiaoyu'er disappeared as if she had jumped into water.
"King Zhou, the people on the other end believe in the Demon God. Is that really okay?" Although he knew it had nothing to do with him, Yao Buqi couldn't help asking.
He knew very well that those who believed in the Demon God were traitors of the human race. They were definitely not on the same side as Zhou Shu and the others.
How could the little girl be safe if she fell into the hands of these traitors?
Zhou Shu glanced at Yao Buqi and said casually, "Do you believe that my daughter can beat up a hundred demons like you?"
Yao Buqi: "…"
…
In an unknown place on the Ten Nations Continent, a group of people in black robes and fancy masks was gathered in a cave.
In the cave, other than the masked people, there were also dozens of powerful demonic beasts.
"Sect Master, we've already sent the divine weapon up for many days. Why hasn't the Demon God given us any feedback?" a masked man said in a hoarse voice.
The masked man sitting in the middle said in a deep voice, "Perhaps the Demon God is busy. In the past, it took months before we received any feedback. There's no need to be anxious. Just wait patiently."
He stared at a two-foot-square pool in the middle of the cave.
There was only a thin layer of water in the pool, but it looked shiny, as if there was another world inside.
This was the Demon God Sect's altar.
It was rumored that the master of the Demon God Sect had received a reward from the Demon God from here. From then on, he began to cultivate the Martial Dao. After he reached the first rank of the Martial Dao, he established the Demon God Sect.
This altar contributed greatly to the Demon God Sect's survival from the siege of the Ten Nations.
Many of the cultivation techniques they cultivated and the treasures they used to recruit disciples were gifts from the Demon God.
Of course, they had also been making offerings to the Demon God all these years.
"Sect Master, the Demon God shouldn't use weapons, right?" a disciple asked. "If we offer a divine weapon, will the Demon God not like it?"
"If it were an ordinary weapon, the Demon God would naturally not be interested. But what I offered is not an ordinary weapon." The Demon God Sect's master shook his head. "You don't know the secret of divine weapons. That's why you said that. Such divine weapons are very precious even to the Demon God.
"I think the Demon God might be considering what he should reward us with. That's why he is taking more time.
"But it doesn't matter. Even without the Demon God's reward, our operations won't be affected for the time being."
The Demon God Sect's master said in a low voice, "After the Ten Nations Martial Arts Tournament, the strength of the Ten Nations has greatly decreased, especially Great Wei. Even Emperor Wei Wu has disappeared. Now that they have no leader, it's a good time for us to attack Great Wei.
"If we can take down Great Wei, we will have a base. It will be more helpful for us to welcome the arrival of the Demon God."
He waved his fist. "The members of our Demon God Sect have already gathered in Great Wei. Originally, I thought that after receiving the reward from the Demon God, I would be more confident in taking action.
"But it doesn't matter now. Even if the Demon God can't take care of us for the time being, I have the help of others. We can still succeed!
"Our Demon God Sect will definitely win!"
"Victory!"
"Victory!"
The disciples of the Demon God Sect and the demonic beasts roared at the same time.
Right at this moment, ripples suddenly appeared on the surface of the altar.
Swish—
A black shadow flew out of the water extremely fast.
The cave instantly fell silent.
"The reward from the Demon God is here!" the leader of the Demon God Sect said in a deep voice. He looked at the black shadow and was stunned.
Not far from the altar, a little girl who looked to be only a year or two old with braids was standing there charmingly.
The little girl was wearing a red dress and looked like a doll in a painting. There was still a hint of confusion on her face as she looked around.
The Demon God rewarded a little girl?
What is the meaning of this?
The Demon God Sect's master was confused. Just as he was feeling puzzled, he suddenly heard the sound of rushing wind.
He was shocked, and the spiritual essence in his body surged as he subconsciously wanted to resist.
The next moment, he felt pain in his face. With a bang, his body flew sideways and slammed into the mountain wall before falling to the ground.
Before he could get up, he felt a weight on his back, and his body fell flat against the ground.
Bang bang bang!
The sound was endless. The Demon God Sect's master felt a constant weight on his body, causing him to be confused and dizzy.
"Don't move. If you move again, I'll beat you up." A crisp child's voice sounded in the ears of the Demon God Sect's master.
As if afraid that her words were not convincing, the little red girl punched the mountain wall.
There was a loud bang, and everyone saw light through the mountain wall.
A small hole appeared on the mountain wall. The hole was several kilometers long and pierced through the entire mountain!
Everyone kept quiet out of fear. They were all martial artists, so they naturally knew how difficult it was to do this!
It was easy for a first-rank martial artist to shatter a boulder, but it was extremely difficult to make such a hole in a mountain.
Could it be that the Demon God sent a peerless expert to help us establish the Demon God Kingdom?
This thought flashed through the minds of the Demon God Sect's master and everyone present, including the demonic beasts.
"Did you see that? I'm very powerful." Xiaoyu'er's voice was crisp. She remembered that Zhou Shu had scared people like this. "I can smash your heads into pieces with one punch!"
She waved her small fists and said, "Be good and listen to me, or I'll kill you with a punch!"
The sect master and disciples of the Demon God Sect were thrown together in a pile. There was no need for Xiaoyu'er to show her strength. They already knew that the little girl in front of them was terrifyingly strong. There were so many of them just now, but none of them could see her movements clearly.
One had to know that there were several first-rank experts and first-rank demonic beasts present!
With dozens of people and demonic beasts on his back, the Demon God Sect's master raised his head with difficulty and asked, "What are your orders, Lord?"
Xiaoyu'er thought for a moment and said, "Bring me to the capital of Great Xia. Yes, the capital of Great Xia!"
The Demon God Sect's master was stunned.?Does the Demon God mean that the Demon God Kingdom should not be built on Great Wei's territory but on Great Xia's?
It doesn't seem like a bad idea. If we take down Great Xia together, won't the territory of the Demon God Kingdom be even larger?
The eyes of the Demon God Sect's master lit up. "As you command, Demon God!"
"I'm not called Demon God!" Xiaoyu'er said unhappily. "They said that you should call me Little Princess!"
"Understood." The sect master of the Demon God Sect thought he had figured it out and said loudly, "As you command, Little Princess, I will personally accompany you to the capital of Great Xia!"
Chapter 640: Army Pressure, Xiaoyu'er's Anger (1)
Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
At the border of Great Xia…
It had been several months since Yin Wuyou returned to the Ten Nations Continent.
Back then, the Demon Realm army that had invaded the Ten Nations Continent had been trapped in the capital of Great Wei by the Ten Nations. Because of Zhou Shu's appearance, their escape route had been cut off, and they had been completely wiped out.
Since then, the Ten Nations Continent temporarily regained its previous peace. But beneath the calm water, all the nations were carrying out military preparations.
Back then, Yin Wuyou had said in front of the emperors of the other nations that Great Xia's Forging Division was open to all nations. As long as they had enough money, any nation could purchase the weapons of Great Xia's Forging Division.
In the past few months, the Great Xia Forging Division had received more orders than in the past few years.
As the person in charge of Great Xia's Forging Division, Yin Wuyou was naturally extremely busy.
But there were benefits to being busy. If she wasn't busy, she was afraid that she would miss Zhou Shu so much that she would go crazy!
"Grand Minister, the three thousand Hundred Refinements Ring Pommel Sabers have been handed over to Great Liang," a middle-aged man in his forties said respectfully to Yin Wuyou.
Zhang Yibei had never thought that he could still achieve meteoric success at his age.
Thinking of the scene of forging with Zhou Shu back then, he still felt as if it was yesterday.
At the time, he was only a Forging Apprentice, and Zhou Shu was also a Forging Apprentice.
In the past, he had only dared to dream that he would one day become a true Forging Master and change his fate.
But the more he interacted with him, the further he felt from becoming a Forging Master.
He was already prepared to be an ordinary Forging Apprentice for the rest of his life. He didn't expect such an opportunity to fall from the sky. He was appointed as the superintendent of the 0th Workshop and was in charge of overseeing the forging of all the standard weapons in Great Xia's Forging Division!
He was nominally a superintendent, but his authority was definitely much greater than that of a superintendent.
From an ordinary Forging Apprentice, he had become the top superintendent of the 108 workshops of Great Xia's Forging Division. Zhang Yibei knew that all of this was because he had once worked for Zhou Shu!
What he had to do now was to do the job well. The emperor and the grand minister had made him the superintendent on account of Zhou Shu. He couldn't embarrass him.
"Okay." Yin Wuyou nodded. "Great Qin wants five thousand Horse Slaying Sabers. Speed up the workshops' progress. Everyone has worked hard these past few days, and the remuneration of all Forging Apprentices will increase by fifty percent."
"Thank you, Grand Minister," Zhang Yibei said seriously.
He was about to report the consumption and profits of the workshops when someone suddenly rushed in.
"Your Highness, please return to the capital quickly!"
The person who came was the Divine Constable Bureau's commander, Ma Fengzhang. After the Ten Nations Martial Arts Tournament, Great Xia was short of manpower. Now, when Yin Wuyou went to the various nations to discuss the weapons business, Ma Fengzhang would personally lead people to protect her.
Ma Fengzhang's third-rank cultivation was already very powerful back then. But now, Yin Wuyou was already a first-rank martial artist, while he was still a third-rank martial artist…
It was only because he had more life experience. Otherwise, he didn't know who was protecting who.
"What happened in the capital?" Yin Wuyou said in surprise.
"The cultists of the Demon God Sect have gathered at the border of Great Xia to attack us," Ma Fengzhang said solemnly. "There's an army of the Demon God Sect a hundred kilometers away from us. We have to leave this place as soon as possible!"
They had come to the border this time to deliver a batch of weapons to Great Liang. There were only a few thousand soldiers accompanying them, but they couldn't stop the crazy Demon God Sect.
"Demon God Sect?" Yin Wuyou frowned. "Is it those beasts who worship demonic beasts and have appeared recently?"
"It's them," Ma Fengzhang said. "Actually, the Demon God Sect has always existed. In the past, our Fiend Eradication Army existed to deal with them. But before, the various nations didn't pay enough attention to it. I didn't expect the Demon God Sect to have secretly accumulated such power.
"A month ago, they took down three cities of Great Wei and have already gathered a million soldiers! Now that they've bared their claws to Great Xia, I'm afraid things are a little troublesome."
Ma Fengzhang's expression was very solemn.
Before the Ten Nations Martial Arts Tournament, even if the Demon God Sect had a million soldiers, Great Xia wouldn't be afraid at all.
But in the Ten Nations Martial Arts Tournament, the elites of the three armies of Great Xia had all entered the Ten Nations Martial Arts Tournament battlefield and never returned.
Right now, it might not be able to gather a million soldiers from all of Great Xia. Facing the Demon God Sect, they might not have much of an advantage.
"His Majesty has already mobilized the army. Your Highness, we have to leave the border as soon as possible, or we will be surrounded by the Demon God Sect army—"
Before Ma Fengzhang could finish speaking, he saw smoke and dust soar into the sky in the distance. Then the ground shook.
"Oh no!" Ma Fengzhang's expression changed drastically. "Protect Her Highness!"
In the distance, the Demon God Sect army had already appeared in his field of vision.
The Demon God Sect believed in the Demon God, and they colluded with the demonic beasts on the Ten Nations Continent. In the distance, the troops of the Demon God Sect rode on demonic beasts and waved their weapons. They completely combined the strengths of humans using weapons with the strengths of demonic beasts.
This was a demonic beast cavalry!
Their combat strength was much stronger than that of ordinary armies of the Ten Nations!
"The people from Great Xia's Forging Division are ahead. Kill them all and snatch their weapons!" A loud shout came from afar.
No matter how slow Yin Wuyou's reaction was, she already understood that this Demon God Sect army was coming for them!
Their goal was to snatch the weapons they were delivering to other countries!

"Hmph, do you really think that my Great Xia's Forging Division is a pushover?" Yin Wuyou snorted coldly and unsheathed the Shadow Sword with a clang.
"Commander Ma, prepare for battle," Yin Wuyou said calmly. She had experienced the Ten Nations Martial Arts Tournament, and she had seen bigger scenes. A mere Demon God Sect army couldn't scare her at all!
Ma Fengzhang's expression was solemn. It was too late to retreat now, so he could only fight to the death.
This Demon God Sect army had more than ten thousand people, more than twice their number. This time, it wouldn't be an easy battle.
Ma Fengzhang unsheathed his saber. "Your Highness, please prioritize your safety and protect yourself!"
Yin Wuyou was a first-rank martial artist. If she wanted to leave, the other party wouldn't be able to stop her.
"There are no cowards in Great Xia who escape without fighting," Yin Wuyou said calmly. "Commander Ma, we've fought an army of demonic beasts ten times our number in the Demon Realm. There are only so many of them. We can definitely defeat them!"
Ma Fengzhang smiled bitterly.?How can they be compared like that?
The human armies in the Demon Realm were all elites among the elites of the various nations, not to mention that they were led by famous generals of the various nations.
This didn't include the monster-like Zhou Shu.
What about them now?
It was just an ordinary army, and Ma Fengzhang wasn't good at leading troops to battle. But the enemy was even more cunning than the Demon Realm army.
There was no chance of winning at all.
There was no other way.
As Ma Fengzhang looked at the approaching Demon God Sect army, a determined expression flashed across his face. "Let's fight."
The thousands of soldiers behind them also drew their sabers. Even Zhang Yibei held a saber in his hand.
But most of these thousands of soldiers were ordinary soldiers who had yet to enter the ranks. Even though they were forcing themselves to calm down, their bodies were trembling slightly when facing the Demon God Sect army riding demonic beasts.
"Die!"
Yin Wuyou's figure flashed, and she flew into the sky. With a flick of her wrist, thousands of sword beams shot out, crossed hundreds of meters, and landed in the Demon God Sect army.
Swish!
For a moment, flesh and blood flew everywhere. Countless disciples of the Demon God Sect fell from the backs of the demonic beasts.
Zhang Yibei and the others perked up. The enemy was also mortal and not invincible.
"Kill!" Ma Fengzhang roared and followed closely behind.
Swish, swish, swish—
The sound of blades piercing flesh rang out. When the two sides collided, countless figures fell.
Those who fell were from both the Demon God Sect and the Great Xia army.
All things considered, the Great Xia army probably had more casualties.
This was also normal. Although the people of the Demon God Sect might not all be ranked martial artists, there were demonic beasts under them. Demonic beasts had thick skin and immense strength, posing a huge threat to the Great Xia army.
Fortunately, there was Yin Wuyou, a first-rank martial artist, and Ma Fengzhang, a third-rank martial artist. They bore most of the pressure. Otherwise, the Great Xia army would probably have been scattered.
Boom!
Yin Wuyou killed dozens of demonic beasts again. Suddenly, two figures with powerful auras flew out from behind. There were actually first-rank martial artists in the Demon God Sect!
"Haha, princess of Great Xia, surrender obediently and follow us back to serve the sect master. Who knows, you might even become the wife of our sect master. Otherwise, when we capture you—"
"Die!" Yin Wuyou attacked before they could finish speaking.
She was furious. As she brandished the Shadow Sword, a sharp sword beam was about to cut the two first-rank martial artists of the Demon God Sect into pieces.
"You want to do it the hard way? Don't blame us for not showing mercy later!"
The two first-rank martial artists of the Demon God Sect were furious and counterattacked.
Although Yin Wuyou was a first-rank martial artist, she couldn't spare the time to help the Great Xia army.
Seeing more and more people from the Great Xia army falling, she was angry and anxious.
"Commander Ma, retreat first! I'll stop them!" Yin Wuyou shouted.
"You can't even protect yourself now." The two first-rank martial artists of the Demon God Sect laughed loudly. "Be good and surrender. If you become the wife of the Demon God Sect's master, these people will be on our side. Naturally, they will be able to live!"
"Impudent!" Ma Fengzhang roared. "You're courting death! How dare you offend Great Xia. Aren't you afraid that the King of the South will return?"
"Great Xia's King of the South? Haha, I'm so scared." The two first-rank martial artists of the Demon God Sect laughed impudently as they surrounded Yin Wuyou. "Let him come. I won't kill him!"
"You deserve to die!" Yin Wuyou was furious, and the sword beams became even more violent.
Suddenly, another army appeared on a mountain in the distance.
The army was riding demonic beasts and wearing colorful clothes and masks, which was the clothing style of the Demon God Sect.
Yin Wuyou and Ma Fengzhang's hearts sank.?There's actually more!
This was really troublesome.
On the mountaintop, the master of the Demon God Sect was groveling beside a ten-foot-long tiger demon. On the tiger demon's back was a little girl who was one or two years old and wearing a fiery red dress. She was sitting there with a fruit that was almost the size of her small head in her hand and chewing happily.
"Clown Face, are we almost at the capital of Great Xia?"
The little girl was Xiaoyu'er.
"Princess, Great Xia's territory is ahead. After entering Great Xia's territory, we will reach the capital of Great Xia after walking another five to six thousand kilometers."
The master of the Demon God Sect bowed and said carefully, "But we have to fight our way through. If you don't do anything, it might take longer.
"There seems to be the princess of Great Xia in the Great Xia army ahead. If we can capture her alive, we might be able to use her to threaten the emperor of Great Xia.
"But her cultivation is not weaker than mine. I'm not confident in capturing her alive. If you are willing to lend us a hand—"
"Great Xia's King of the South is useless. If he dares to come, I'll still slap him to death."
Arrogant laughter suddenly came from afar. Xiaoyu'er looked up.
"Clown Face, I think I heard someone mention the King of the South just now, right?" Xiaoyu'er stood up on the tiger demon's back and tiptoed forward to look.
Light flickered in the distance from a battle. Her gaze landed on Yin Wuyou, and her eyes lit up.
"Mommy!" Xiaoyu'er cheered. With a flash of light, she suddenly disappeared.
The expression of the Demon God Sect's master changed. For some reason, he had a very bad feeling.
Boom!
Yin Wuyou was forced back dozens of feet by the attack of the two first-rank martial artists. Her blood was churning as she spat out a mouthful of blood.
"You're no match for us. If you don't want to suffer more, give up struggling."
A first-rank martial artist of the Demon God Sect laughed loudly.
"Being the lover of Great Xia's King of the South is not as satisfying as being the wife of the sect master."
"You deserve to die!" Yin Wuyou gritted her teeth angrily.
"Mommy!"
Just as Yin Wuyou was about to move forward, her vision suddenly darkened. She felt someone hugging her leg.
Shocked, she looked down and saw a little girl hugging her leg, looking up at her with big star-like eyes.
"Mommy!" the little girl shouted. Yin Wuyou was confused.
"What… what did you call me?" Yin Wuyou stammered.
"Mommy," Xiaoyu'er said seriously. "Daddy showed me what you look like. I have a good memory. You are my mother!
"Mommy, why are you vomiting blood? Did someone bully you?" When Xiaoyu'er saw the blood at the corner of Yin Wuyou's mouth, her face instantly swelled with anger.
"I remember now. Someone just shouted that he wanted to kill the King of the South. My father is the King of the South. You want to kill my father and even bullied my mother!"
Xiaoyu'er turned to look at the two first-rank martial artists of the Demon God Sect and said angrily, "Unforgivable!"
The first-rank martial artists of the Demon God Sect were already scared silly. "No, we didn't. Princ—"
Before he could finish speaking, he saw Xiaoyu'er swing her fist at the heads of the two first-rank martial artists.
The two first-rank martial artists of the Demon God Sect, who had been extremely arrogant just now, shattered into pieces like porcelain. They died with grievances!
Chapter 642: Great Xia's Crisis, Sudden Appearance (1)
Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
The two first-rank martial artists died with grievances, and the entire place instantly fell silent.
Everyone looked at the little girl in horror.
Yin Wuyou widened her eyes in disbelief.
She had just fought with the two first-rank martial artists. They were genuine first-rank martial artists, and their cultivation levels were not inferior to hers.
But the two experts were actually blasted into pieces by this little girl dressed like a doll in front of them. This extreme contrast was simply indescribable.
"Clown Face!" Xiaoyu'er's crisp voice sounded angrily.
The Demon God Sect's master shivered on the distant hill.
He wanted to turn around and run, but he knew he couldn't escape.
Although the little girl looked like a baby, her cultivation level was terrifyingly high, and she was ruthless…
He braced himself, flew in front of Xiaoyu'er, bowed, and said cautiously, "Here!"
"Do you also want to bully my mother?" Xiaoyu'er raised her little fist.
Plop—
The Demon God Sec's master was so frightened that he fell to his knees. "I'm innocent, Princess. I don't. I definitely don't!
"It's those two bastards. They deserve to die. Even if you didn't kill them, I would have!"
He pointed at the ground full of bloody flesh.
Xiaoyu'er frowned. She couldn't understand something so complicated. She turned around and looked at Yin Wuyou. "Mommy, should I beat him to death?"
Yin Wuyou had yet to recover from her shock.?Is this little girl really calling me mommy?
"Are you calling me?" Yin Wuyou was now thinking about this matter. As for the life and death of the Demon God Sect's master, she didn't care at all.
"Yes," Xiaoyu'er said. "Mommy, don't you recognize me?"
"I…" Looking at the little girl's innocent expression, Yin Wuyou couldn't bear to refuse. But she really didn't know this little girl.
She wasn't even married. How could she have a daughter?
"Your Highness!"
Xiaoyu'er had suddenly killed two first-rank martial artists, and the sect master was kneeling in front of her. The members of the Demon God Sect had long stopped and retreated to the side.
Ma Fengzhang and the others rushed behind Yin Wuyou and stared at Xiaoyu'er and the people from the Demon God Sect.
"Your Highness, why don't you pretend to be her mother first?" Ma Fengzhang whispered in Yin Wuyou's ear.
Although he didn't quite understand what was going on, it was obvious that the little doll in front wasn't an ordinary person.
Of course. How could someone who could kill two first-rank martial artists with a single punch be an ordinary person?
In any case, it was best that she was not hostile now.
From the looks of it, as long as Yin Wuyou acknowledged it, she would listen to Yin Wuyou. The person kneeling on the ground was clearly the Demon God Sect's master. Now, Yin Wuyou only needed to say a word to kill him. This was definitely a great opportunity.
Yin Wuyou frowned. She understood the logic, but she still couldn't accept it if she didn't make things clear.
She looked at Xiaoyu'er. "What's your name? Why are you calling me mommy?"
"My name is Xiaoyu'er, Zhou Xiaoyu," Xiaoyu'er said crisply. "My father's name is Zhou Shu, and my mother's name is Yin Wuyou. Mommy, don't you know your name?"
Xiaoyu'er's words stunned Yin Wuyou, Ma Fengzhang, and the others.
She might have recognized the wrong person, but the names she mentioned wouldn't be wrong.
Zhou Shu, Yin Wuyou, this little girl didn't get the wrong person at all.
Yin Wuyou was also confused.?Could I really have such a big daughter?
"I'm Yin Wuyou, but I—" Yin Wuyou hesitated.
"That's great." Xiaoyu'er clapped her hands. "Daddy asked me to go to the capital of Great Xia to find my mother. Mommy, is this the capital of Great Xia? Why did Clown Face tell me that I still have to walk for many days to get to the capital of Great Xia?
"He's a baddie. Daddy says I have to beat baddies to death!"
She raised her small fist again.
Seeing Xiaoyu'er about to hammer the Demon God Sect's master to death, Yin Wuyou hurriedly said, "Wait."
Xiaoyu'er's fist stopped above the head of the Demon God Sect's master. He was so frightened that he collapsed to the ground.
"Spare me! Your Highness, spare me!" He wasn't stupid. He shouted at Yin Wuyou, "I'm the Demon God Sect's master. Keeping me alive will be of great use!"
"Xiaoyu'er, don't kill him yet," Yin Wuyou said.
"Clown Face, behave yourself! If you don't listen, I'll beat you to death!" Xiaoyu'er waved her small fists and threatened the Demon God Sect's master. Then she ran to Yin Wuyou's side, hugged her leg, and looked up, smiling happily.
Yin Wuyou's body stiffened. She hesitated for a moment before placing her hand on Xiaoyu'er's head.
Xiaoyu'er smiled even more happily. "Mommy!"
Yin Wuyou felt her heart melt.
She rubbed Xiaoyu'er's head and looked at the Demon God Sect's master. "Who the hell are you?"
He glanced at Xiaoyu'er, who looked like an ordinary little girl, and said carefully, "I am Sun Chuang, the sect master of the Demon God Sect."
"Sun Chuang?" Yin Wuyou turned around and glanced at Ma Fengzhang.
Ma Fengzhang shook his head. The Demon God Sect's master had always been extremely mysterious. The various nations had investigated him for many years, but no one knew his name.
This was the first time he had heard the name Sun Chuang, so he didn't know if it was true.
Chapter 643: Great Xia's Crisis, Sudden Appearance (2)
Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
"Why are you attacking Great Xia?!" Yin Wuyou continued to ask.
Sun Chuang looked helpless.?Why?
We are the Demon God Sect. We are irreconcilable enemies with the Ten Nations. Do we need a reason to attack you?
Thinking of the little fiend, Sun Chuang didn't dare to say this.
Although he was a first-rank martial artist, it was only a matter of one punch…
"We were originally going to attack Great Wei, but the princess said that she was going to the capital of Great Xia. I misunderstood…"
Yin Wuyou and Ma Fengzhang finally understood. The Demon God Sect originally wanted to seize the territory of Great Wei, but the little girl in Yin Wuyou's arms had somehow found them and even said that she wanted to go to the capital of Great Xia.
In the end, the Demon God Sect gathered at the border of Great Xia and seemed to attack Great Xia…
"Go to the side first. I'll think about what to do with you!" Yin Wuyou frowned coldly.
"Your Highness, there are millions of people in the Demon God Sect. I can listen to you. As long as you spare my life, the Demon God Sect will obey you in the future!" Sun Chuang said in a deep voice.
Ma Fengzhang's eyelids twitched.?What do you mean?
His Majesty probably has ,a headache over how to deal with the Demon God Sect's attack right now. In the end, the Demon God Sect's master announced his allegiance here?
All because of the king and princess's daughter?
What would His Majesty think if he knew that the princess and the king even had a daughter…
"Shut up!" Yin Wuyou berated. "I didn't ask you to speak. Behave yourself!"
"Behave yourself!" Xiaoyu'er followed suit.
Sun Chuang immediately fell silent.
"Commander Ma, watch him!"
Yin Wuyou carried Xiaoyu'er and walked toward the tent not far away.
There were still a few tents left where they had set up camp. She wanted to ask Xiaoyu'er about the situation first.
Yin Wuyou and Xiaoyu'er entered the tent while Sun Chuang and Ma Fengzhang looked at each other.
Ma Fengzhang smiled bitterly in his heart.?I'm a third-rank martial artist. Are you serious about getting me to watch over a first-rank martial artist?
Sun Chuang was thinking,?If I escape now, will the little brat chase after me?
What are the chances of successfully escaping?
As for Ma Fengzhang and the others, Sun Chuang didn't care at all.
If not for the princess, even the Great Xia army in front of him wouldn't be enough for him to kill alone.
After hesitating for a long time, Sun Chuang finally chose to stay.
It wasn't completely impossible to escape, but the risk was too great.
The little fiend was much faster than him.
As long as there was life, there was hope. As long as he lived, he could always find an opportunity to turn the tables.
He, Sun Chuang, was just a woodcutter who had nothing back then. The only reason he could be where he was today was because of his patience!
In the tent, Yin Wuyou was reading a letter while Xiaoyu'er was sitting beside her, nibbling on a fruit.
The two of them were as beautiful as flowers. Even if they said they were really mother and daughter, no one would suspect them.
Looking at the letter Zhou Shu asked Xiaoyu'er to bring, the doubts in Yin Wuyou's heart were finally resolved.
It turned out that he had picked her up.
Who would be so heartless as to abandon such a child??Yin Wuyou rubbed Xiaoyu'er's face with some heartache. Xiaoyu'er looked up and sweetly called her mommy again.
Yin Wuyou's heart was about to melt.
"Xiaoyu'er, you'll be my precious daughter from now on. If anyone dares to bully you, I won't let them off!" Yin Wuyou pulled Xiaoyu'er into her arms.
"Mommy, you're the best." Xiaoyu'er giggled.
…
Just as Yin Wuyou was considering how to deal with Sun Chuang, Great Xia's capital had already entered a state of full combat readiness.
Soldiers kept pouring out of the city and heading toward the border.
The Great Xia Imperial Court was also tense.
"Your Majesty, there's news from the front. The Demon God Sect's army gathered at the border has exceeded a million," said Zhang Fuzhi, the minister of war of Great Xia. "I've already mobilized all the soldiers we can mobilize, but we've only gathered eight hundred thousand. Any more will affect the safety of the capital."
If not for the heavy losses in the Ten Nations Martial Arts Tournament, Great Xia's strength would have been much greater.
But now, Great Xia's military strength was simply stretched thin.
Emperor Yuan Feng frowned. "What did Great Qin say?"
"Great Qin has already sent ten thousand elite soldiers to help, but it's just a drop in the bucket," Zhang Fuzhi said.
Who would have thought that the few powerful nations on the Ten Nations Continent couldn't compare to the Demon God Sect in terms of military strength?!
The impact of the Ten Nations Martial Arts Tournament was too great on the Ten Nations. The elites of the various nations had all entered the Ten Nations Martial Arts Tournament battlefield back then. Who would have thought that these elite armies would never return?
"Continue to seek help from the other nations," Emperor Yuan Feng said in a deep voice. Now was no longer the time to care about face. It would be very difficult for Great Xia alone to withstand the attack of the Demon God Sect.
If Great Xia was occupied by the Demon God Sect, it would have a massive impact on the other nations. Now that the Nine Nations were united, they would definitely send troops to help.
"Your Majesty, distant water cannot solve a nearby fire. Even if the various nations send troops, reinforcements won't arrive anytime soon. I suggest that we fortify our defenses and leave nothing usable to the invading enemy!" an old minister with a head full of white hair said with a solemn expression.
"Fortify our defenses and leave nothing usable to the invading enemy?" Emperor Yuan Feng's expression changed.
"Give up some parts of the city in order to earn us some time. That way, we can reduce our front line," the old official said. "When the reinforcements from the various nations arrive, we'll counterattack in one fell swoop!"
"Absolutely not!" Zhang Fuzhi said angrily. "Your Majesty, if we do this, our army will lose their fighting spirit! The territory of Great Xia cannot be lost!
"I request permission to go to the front line. As long as I'm still alive, I will definitely not let those bastards step foot into Great Xia's territory!"
Zhang Fuzhi's burly body erupted with battle intent.
"You're risking the lives of the soldiers!" The old minister was also furious.
"Giving up territory is letting the soldiers sacrifice in vain!" Zhang Fuzhi didn't back down.
The two of them started arguing in the hall. The other ministers were also divided into two groups. For a moment, the Imperial Court was in chaos.
"Enough!" Emperor Yuan Feng was furious. "Can arguing solve the problem?
"If the King of the South and Great General Meng were still here, would there be a need to quarrel like this?"
Emperor Yuan Feng was just short of pointing at the names of the ministers and cursing them for being useless.
"Your Majesty, please calm down." Suddenly, a voice sounded in everyone's ears. "It's just a mere Demon God Sect. I can destroy it with one hand. Why worry?"
Before he finished speaking, a figure appeared out of thin air in the Imperial Court.
"Protect the emperor!" Eunuch Zhang shouted and took a step sideways to stand in front of Emperor Yuan Feng as his aura erupted.
Yin Changhao appeared out of nowhere, and his aura as a first-rank martial artist erupted as he stared at the intruder.
The person who came was a handsome young man who looked to be in his late twenties. He stood there elegantly with a calm expression. "Everyone, don't be nervous. I'm here to help you. I have no ill intentions."
He spread his hands gracefully, indicating that he meant no harm.
Emperor Yuan Feng gestured for Eunuch Zhang to move aside. He looked at the young man and said solemnly, "Who are you?"
This was the Great Xia Imperial Court. For this person to barge in silently, he was definitely not an ordinary person!
"It's not up to you to decide if you mean any harm!" Yin Changhao shouted coldly. "You've trespassed the imperial palace and deserve to be killed!"
He took a step forward and slashed out a sword beam.
The young man's lips curled up. With a flick of his finger, the sword beam shattered. Yin Changhao's body trembled violently, and he took a few steps back.
"You're not my match, so you'd better not attack again. Otherwise, I can't guarantee that I won't hurt you." The young man shook his head. "Your Majesty, I came to help you solve the problem of the Demon God Sect. Without my help, your Great Xia will be destroyed in an instant."
"Alarmist!" Emperor Yuan Feng said coldly. "My Great Xia has been established for a thousand years. How can it be destroyed just because someone wants to?"
"Is that so?" The young man shook his head. "Confidence is a good thing, but blind confidence is foolish.
"Do you believe that it will be easy for me to kill all of you?"
As he spoke, a terrifying aura emanated from his body.
