The Empress has abandoned me? I'll support a new emperor and destroy your kingdom!

Su Che stumbled into the inner camp.

Yun Jin was already waiting there.

She saw Su Che's expression, but her face did not change.

But she walked over twice as fast as usual.

She reached out to support Su Che, placing her palm on his shoulder.

A warm spiritual energy surged from her palm into Su Che's body; it was the healing power of Nanming Li Huo Sheng.

The wound is healing at a speed visible to the naked eye.

Su Che felt his strength slowly returning.

"You're injured," Yun Jin said.

"It's a minor injury, it doesn't hurt."

Yun Jin looked at him; Su Che's face was pale, and his lips were bloodless.

"Jin'er, wasn't it amazing how I developed my second bloodline without using the power of the Emperor's Vein or the items from the Divine Ranking?"

Yun Jin did not answer.

But she didn't remove her hand from Su Che's shoulder.

The spiritual energy was continuously poured in until Su Che's complexion regained its color.

"Jin'er, that's enough. Save your spiritual energy for any unexpected enemies."

"My husband is far more important than my enemy."

Su Che smiled and reached out to hold Yun Jin's hand.

"Jin'er, I'm alright. I feel like I've grasped some of the tricks of using the Bloodthirsty Demon God."

"Um."

"You stay and guard the inner camp; I'll go check things out at the front."

"I'll go with you."

"No need. I..."

"I'll go with you."

"Okay, then you follow behind me."

"Um."

......

The two walked out of the inner camp.

The fighting outside continues.

The demon soldiers have breached the camp walls and poured into the outer camp area.

The vampire garrison resisted from behind the inner camp's fortifications, while archers fired from high ground.

Su Che surveyed the battlefield situation.

Although there were many demon soldiers, the space inside the camp was limited, and only a few dozen could enter at a time.

The vampire defenders are able to hold out for the time being by taking advantage of the terrain.

But the problem is that there are even more demon soldiers in the dense forest.

If they continue to pour in, the vampire defenders will eventually be worn down.

"We need to cut off their escape route," Su Che said in a low voice.

"What do you mean?" Xueyan asked.

"The demon soldiers emerged from the dense forest, crossed the plains, and charged towards the camp walls. This distance is their supply line. If their supply line can be cut off, the demon soldiers who have already poured into the inner camp will become an isolated force."

"Send a small team to flank the forest and set it ablaze. The demon soldiers fear fire. Once the fire starts, the demon soldiers inside the forest will be too afraid to come out, and those who have already left will not be able to return."

Xueyan thought for a moment: "But who should we send? We don't have enough manpower right now."

"I'll go."

"Young clan leader! You just finished fighting..."

"Blood Rock, guard the inner camp. I'll be right back."

Su Che didn't give Xue Yan a chance to finish speaking, and turned to leave, with Yun Jin following behind him.

The two left the inner camp and bypassed the battlefield from the flank.

Su Che checked his condition as he ran.

Blood Rage consumed a large amount of health.

Although Yun Jin's external injuries have healed, her internal qi and blood deficiency has not yet fully recovered.

The power of the Blood Demon God bloodline that he can currently mobilize is very limited.

"Netherworld, in my current state, can I still use Bloodrage Berserk?"

"Barely. It will last very short a time, probably no more than thirty breaths."

"Thirty breaths are enough."

The two circled around to the edge of the dense forest.

From here, one can see a large number of demon soldiers pouring out of the dense forest.

If a fire could be lit, it would at least temporarily halt their movement.

Su Che squatted down and picked up a few dry branches from the ground.

He took out a tinderbox and lit it; the flames instantly shot up, ten times larger than a normal fire.

Using the fire from the Southern Ming Dynasty to light tree branches is reminiscent of using an anti-aircraft gun to kill a mosquito.

......

Su Che threw the burning dry branches into the bushes at the edge of the dense forest.

Unlike ordinary flames, the Southern Bright Fire carries the power of laws.

Once the bushes were set ablaze, the flames quickly spread to the surrounding trees.

But what Su Che wanted was not for the Southern Ming Fire to burn itself.

He merely used the Southern Bright Fire as a catalyst to ignite ordinary spiritual wood.

Once the fire spreads, there will be no need for the Southern Ming fire to maintain it.

The fire spread rapidly.

The bushes and low trees at the edge of the dense forest were on fire, and the flames spread deeper into the forest.

Smoke billows.

The demon soldiers in the dense forest began to stir.

Low-level demon soldiers instinctively fear fire, especially since this is Nanming Li Fire.

As soon as the fire started, they began to scatter and flee.

Those demon soldiers controlled by the ghost race's soul magic were also affected.

The soul connections that control them become unstable due to the interference of the flames.

"It's having some effect." Su Che looked at the chaos in the dense forest and breathed a sigh of relief.

But just then, a roar came from deep within the dense forest.

The sound didn't resemble the shouts of demon soldiers; it was more like the roar of some high-level demon.

The sound waves caused the leaves to fall in a rustling sound, and Su Che's eardrums were ringing.

A giant beast charged out of the dense forest.

That was a demon general in human form.

It has a tiger's head and a human body, standing two zhang tall, and its entire body is covered with golden tiger-striped fur.

Its aura was as heavy as a mountain.

Late stage of the Void Breaking Realm.

The demon general extinguished the ordinary flames in front of him with a single palm strike, then turned to look at Su Che and Yun Jin.

Its gaze lingered on Yun Jin for a moment.

Su Che could sense that it was assessing Yun Jin's threat level.

Then it decisively chose Su Che.
