Chapter 390 Battle Against a Hundred Demons!

"My lord, the battle between the Mad Demons and the Fiends has ended!"

As he rushed toward Yu Zhun, Pago's eyes were filled with excitement, and his body trembled slightly with excitement.

"Both groups of demons suffered casualties in this battle. The number of members of the Fiend Demon Clan has plummeted from sixty-two to fifty-seven, while the number of members of the Mad Demon Clan has dropped even further from over fifty to forty-six!"

"Not bad." Yu Zhun nodded in satisfaction.

As expected, the Mad Demons and the Fiends, two powerful demonic groups near the God of Slaughter, started fighting each other, thanks to Pag's instigation.

In the past few days, in addition to getting the new members working together, the Killing Gods have also been keeping a close eye on the situation of the Mad Demons and the Fiends.

Now that the battle between these two demonic factions has come to an end, not only has the Killing God Clan safely passed through the most dangerous period of adjustment, but it has also allowed Yu Zhun to better implement his next plan.

“Forty-six people, that’s a good number,” Yu Zhun said with a smile. “Gather everyone, let’s go and devour the Mad Demons.”

He had previously worried that the fact that thirty people could defeat more than fifty demons would bring the God of Slaughter into the sights of the Hundred Demons too early.

Now, the Mad Demons have only forty-odd people left, and they have just suffered heavy losses in a battle with the Fiends. It wouldn't be too conspicuous for the Killing Gods to devour them.

At Yu Zhun's command, the thirty members of the Killing God Clan quickly gathered, their eyes fixed on Yu Zhun, filled with longing for the next battle.

"As you all know, our goal has always been clear: to win first place in the upcoming war against the demons." Yu Zhun said slowly. "I'm not afraid to tell you all that our goal is very clear: to win first place in the upcoming war against the demons."

"What we need to do now is to advance to the Hundred Demons before the War of the Demons begins."

"Advancement among the Hundred Demons is not easy."

"Surrounded by wolves, we face numerous difficulties."

"But no matter what, we must fight our way out."

"If we can't even do this, how can we expect to win in the even more frenzied battle against the demons?"

At this point, Yu Zhun slowly looked at each member.

"Now, follow me into battle."

"Our first objective: to devour the Madmen!"

"kill!!!!"

A loud shout pierced the sky, and everyone responded in unison. Then, following Yu Zhun's footsteps, they rushed quickly towards the direction of the Mad Demons.

When they arrived at the border between their own territory and the territory of the Madmen, the Madmen on the other side had already arrived upon hearing the news.

The leader of the Madman Clan, Wao, was a powerful figure with a withered and emaciated appearance, but whose eyes were filled with madness. He stared intently at Yu Zhun, the leader of the Killing God Clan, and a sinister smile appeared on his lips.

"I never expected that you would choose us."

"What ridiculous and foolish fellows! Do you really think I didn't see through your little trick of sowing discord?"

"Hmm?" Yu Zhun raised an eyebrow, a hint of surprise in his eyes. "You figured it out?"

"I can see that. You're still fighting the Demon Clan?"

"Hahaha, what are the mere Sha Demons?" Wao laughed loudly, his eyes full of disdain when he mentioned the Sha Demons. "A bunch of fat sheep waiting to be slaughtered. If I wasn't afraid of provoking the Hundred Demons to attack if I swallowed them, I would have wiped them out long ago."

“During this time, the Demon Clan has been hiding from us, secretly plotting to devour you.”

"I'm really looking forward to this opportunity to have them fight us!"

Upon hearing this, Yu Zhun's gaze towards Wao deepened.

This guy saw through it and decided to play along.

That's really crazy.

"So... the casualties on both sides were also intentional?"

"nature."

Wao grinned, his face full of smugness. "Whether it's the Mad Demons or the Fiends, we outnumber you by a great deal. How can we lure you into making a move without losing some of our members?"

"I originally thought I would need to fight the Fiends again, but I didn't expect you to be so bold."

“We, the Madmen, still have forty-six of us at this moment, and under my deliberate control, those who died were the weakest of us.”

"How dare you come looking for us?"

Upon hearing this, the powerful members of the Mad Demon Clan all let out contemptuous and disdainful laughter, while the members of the God of Slaughter Clan's expressions darkened.

Pago's expression was extremely grave. He had thought everything was going according to his plan, but little did he know that while he was scheming against others, he was also being schemed against. "Lord Yu Zhun, I..."

Yu Zhun waved his hand, interrupting Pago's words, and looked at Wao with a strange expression.

It has to be said that anyone who can control a group of demons can't be a fool. Wao may seem crazy, but he's actually quite shrewd.

Unfortunately, he still misjudged one thing.

Wao believed that the Killers were sowing discord between them and the Sha to protect themselves from being targeted by the two Sha and left to their own devices.

But in reality, Yu Zhun's goal was simply to get through the adjustment period.

Now that the adjustment period is over, even if the Mad Demon Clan and the Fiend Clan have not suffered any losses, Yu Zhun will still not hesitate to regard them as prey.

There's absolutely no need for the fanatics to deliberately reduce their numbers to lure people in.

"Formation!"

With a soft shout from Yu Zhun, the auras of the thirty members of the Killing God Clan instantly converged, and a true demon rose from the ground.

Ok?
A hint of surprise flashed in Wao's eyes.

The reason he spoke those words so bluntly in front of Yu Zhun was because he was certain they couldn't escape his grasp.

Even knowing this, the Godslayers showed no fear or thought of fleeing, and without hesitation formed an array and attacked…

This was somewhat beyond his expectations.

In a flash, Wao shouted, "Form ranks!"

The auras of the forty-six people instantly converged, and a True Demon, whose aura was even more powerful than that of the True Demons of the Killing God Clan, quickly appeared.

The two true demons faced off across the distance, and then instantly engaged in a fierce battle.

Amidst the overwhelming demonic power and splashing demonic energy, the battle finally ended with Lu Wen's controlled True Demon piercing through the Mad Demon Clan's True Demons with a single sword strike.

As the True Demon Collapsed and the formation shattered, all forty-six members of the Mad Demon Clan were sent flying backward, while the others all fainted. Only Wao, with his superior strength, stood shakily in place.

He stared intently at Yu Zhun as he approached, the madness in his eyes completely replaced by fear.

At that moment, he understood everything.

Your own presumptuous plans only benefit others.

"you…"

Before Wao could finish speaking, his chest was instantly pierced by Yu Zhun's dagger.

"Imprison others, then awaken them."

As soon as Yu Zhun finished speaking, the excited members of the Killing Gods group quickly took action.

Yu Zhun stood still, gazing intently at the void not far away. After a moment, he spoke loudly, "If you're here, then come out."

"I didn't expect that you could sense me."

Qiu Ke emerged from the distant void with a solemn expression, his gaze towards Yu Zhun and the others filled with deep gravity.

The Demon Clan and the Mad Clan were evenly matched, but the Mad Clan was wiped out by the God of Slaughter.

Even if he couldn't believe it, Joker had his answer: this group of only thirty demons posed a great threat to the Sha Demons!
So what should we do next?
Take advantage of the time before the Killing Gods and the Mad Demons have fully integrated and attack the Killing Gods.

No, even if the Killing Gods don't absorb members of the Mad Demons, they still have a high chance of defeating the Fiends!
So it seems that he only has two paths in front of him.

First, migrate or leave; if you can't win, run away.

This path, however, is also a dead end for the Demon Clan, who are already being targeted by the other Hundred Demons. Therefore, the only path he can take is the second one.

During the period of integration of the Godslayer Clan, seize the time to absorb other demons and rapidly increase the number of members through integration!

Just as Qiu Ke's expression kept changing and his mind was filled with thoughts and plans, Yu Zhun gave a cold laugh.

"Still not coming out?"

what?
Joker was taken aback.

Immediately afterwards, his expression changed drastically, and he looked sharply to his side.

Not far from him, another demon slowly walked out.

"Wayne!" Joker couldn't help but exclaim.

The other party was not the leader of the demons, but just an ordinary member of the demons, but the demons they belonged to were the Hundred Demons!
Why is this guy here?
Qiu Ke suddenly turned to look at Yu Zhun, and then realized what was happening.

Yes, once the Killing Gods consume the Mad Demons, their numbers will reach an astonishing seventy-six. Although this number does not exceed the warning line of a hundred demons, it is already very close.

Therefore, Wayne comes representing the Hundred Demons behind him!

He's here to confirm the number of members of the Killing Gods Clan!
Once he understood this, a smile immediately appeared in Joker's eyes.

Perhaps, there is a third way for me.

So, is that just waiting for the Hundred Demons to kill the Gods and destroy them?

"Behind me are the Dragonkin," Wayne said calmly. "At this moment, I will not get involved in anything."

"Is that so?" Yu Zhun smiled noncommittally, then turned to look at the group of madmen in front of him who had regained their senses. "You only have one minute."

Tell me, what is your worth?

"I will only select twenty people of sufficient value to join the God of Slaughter; the rest will die here."

"what?!"

The madmen were all stunned for a moment, then burst into angry curses.

Joker, who was watching from the sidelines, was also stunned.

The Godslayers...only twenty people?

He couldn't help but think of the news he had heard before about the God of Slaughter wiping out the entire Tao Demon Clan and the Evil Demon Clan, and a chill ran through him.

This guy…

This guy is even crazier than Wao!
No, the Demon Clan absolutely cannot lose!
Otherwise, I might end up like Wao!

There's no need to wait any longer; the Dragon Demons behind Wayne are unlikely to directly attack the God of Slaughter, who only numbers fifty.

Therefore, you must protect yourself!

He wants to train the Demon Clan to be even more powerful and able to rival the Gods of Slaughter before the training is over!

With that thought in mind, Joker turned and left without hesitation.

Wayne watched Joker's departing figure with great interest, then looked at Yu Zhun with a deep gaze.

It only swallowed such a small number of people.

That's quite cautious.

only…

With the war against the demons imminent, even if the God of Slaughter has the ability to turn the world upside down, it is impossible for them to smoothly advance to the Hundred Demons.

Their current cleverness will only delay their downfall.

Thinking of this, Wayne shook his head and disappeared from the spot.

On the other side, Yu Zhun had already selected twenty new members and ordered the elimination of all the others.

Turning his head and seeing Joker and Wayne already gone, a confident smile appeared on his lips.

"Return to the territory and prepare for integration."

Seeing the incredibly excited crowd, Yu Zhun paused slightly, "Our next prey is the Demon Clan!"
-
"Om-"

As a wall of murderous aura soared into the sky and swallowed up the true demons of the Demonic Fiend Clan, the mighty true demons instantly collapsed, and the seventy-nine figures hidden among the true demons were all sent flying backward.

Yu Zhun calmly dispelled the True Demon and walked step by step to Qiu Ke, whose face was extremely dejected.

"Why..." Joker murmured, his eyes filled with madness and confusion, "Why are you all so strong?"

"I had already recruited seventy-nine members, which was almost a risky move."

Why can't we still defeat you?!

"Because your men are too weak." Yu Zhun said calmly, and then pierced Qiu Ke's chest without hesitation.

With more than eighty people, the Hundred Demons would have a reason to attack directly, so the Fiend Demons kept their numbers at seventy-nine and completed the integration process in almost the same amount of time as the God of Slaughter.

Unfortunately, Yu Zhun and the others were all prodigies.

The Demonic Battle Formation reduces the importance of individual strength, but even if individual combat power is not so important, extremely disparate talents will still become the final factor in determining the direction of the balance.

Yu Zhun has five such chips.

"Same as always, leave only thirty people, kill the rest."

He casually gave the order, and Yu Zhun looked into the void not far away. Two figures slowly emerged under his gaze.

Leading the way was a powerful figure with a terrifying aura, followed by Wayne, whom they had met before.

Yu Zhun's eyes flickered slightly, "Zhuo Ge, the leader of the Dragon Demons?"

"It's me." Zhuo Ge nodded slightly, his eyes filled with a hint of excitement as he looked at Yu Zhun.

"You have fifty men first, then you recruit thirty more. It seems you are ready to fight the Hundred Demons."

"In that case, we, the Dragon Demons, will take action this time."

"I am very interested in you."

"Therefore I will not kill you; I will make you all join my Dragon Demon Clan."

"With your participation, I believe that in the upcoming battle of the demons, our Dragon Demon Clan will achieve very good results."

"Or, you could be smart and give up your current demon followers and join our Dragon Demon Clan."

"This way, everyone's relationship can be more harmonious."

As Zhuoge finished speaking, the arena suddenly fell silent.

After a moment, Yu Zhun chuckled, "May I ask, Chief Zhuoge, you said that if we join you, we can achieve a very good result in the Demon War... what place do you mean by that result?"

“This…” Zhuoge stroked his chin, actually seriously considering Yu Zhun’s question, “Based on the situation of the last Demon War, if you join, there might be hope for the top twenty.”

"Top twenty...?" Yu Zhun's smile became a little strange. "That's a bit low."

"After all, our goal is to be number one."

"Therefore, we have no choice but to wait until the integration is complete before engaging in a direct battle with you Dragon Demons."

Even if the Hundred Demons were to attack a group of less than a hundred demons, they would still have to maintain a basic level of decorum and would not attack during the opponent's period of adjustment.

Upon hearing Yu Zhun's words, Zhuo Ge paused even while rubbing his chin, his expression turning strange as if he had heard something out of the blue.

"Your goal is to be number one?"

"Not bad." Yu Zhun chuckled. "Also..."

"Leader Zhuoge is a good person. After the Dragon Demon Clan is defeated, I think you are quite suitable to join the God of Slaughter Clan."
