Hearing the commotion outside the camp, Di Xin walked out quickly.
"What happened?"
Emperor Xin noticed that outside the tent, the lights were brightly lit.
Di Xin had dealt with Dugu Shu in the camp earlier, but he didn't notice that several hours had passed.
It was already late at night, and the entire Heavenly Punishment Emperor was pitch black.
At this time, most of the divine soldiers should have rested, and only a small number of patrolling divine soldiers were left.
"Reporting to Battalion Commander, a large number of strange demons appeared one mile ahead."
Not long after Dugushu's death, the divine soldiers had automatically changed their title from Emperor to Battalion Commander.
Emperor Xin did not let the soldiers change their minds.
"An army of strange demons?"
Emperor Xin looked around, and there were patches of blue light on the empty plain.
Dixin had stayed in the Demon Army Village for a while, and was very familiar with strange demons.
That piece of blue phosphorous fire is the summoning fire used by strange demons.
Looking at the number, there are at least 10,000 to 20,000 strange demons.
Both the strange demons and the divine soldiers from the God Realm entered the Heaven's Punishment Gobi, and the strength of the two sides was almost the same.
But the magic soldiers on the side of the strange demons are much more scattered than the magic soldiers.
The reason is nothing more than that in terms of divine soldiers, although there are two camps including Dugushu and Ye Lingyue, they are all from the Heavenly War Camp, which can be regarded as a faction.
But the strange demons are different. Although there are quite a few strange demons, they come from more than a dozen demon army villages, belong to different families and forces such as the Heavenly Demon Court, and they don't like each other. The odds are also slim.
Therefore, in Emperor Xin's view, the sudden appearance of a force of 10,000 to 20,000 strange demons seemed very unusual.
"Send someone over to inquire, which force of the strange demon does this troop belong to?"
The emperor secretly speculated that the only people who could have such prestige among the strange demons and gather 10,000 or even 20,000 strange demons were the only ones like the Emperor Demon Family and the Heavenly Demon Court.
Just when Emperor Xin sent someone to inquire, his eyes narrowed and he saw the banner in the army of strange demons.
"Xi?"
When seeing this surname, Di Xin's face darkened.
The surname Xi reminded him of a bad name.
It's a pity that Emperor Xin's ominous premonition soon came true, but after a while, the scouts who went to inquire about the forces of strange demons returned.
"Report to Battalion Commander, the troops ahead belong to the Alliance of Strange Demons, and their leader is... Xi Jiuye, the traitorous god. They sent someone to negotiate with us."
The divine soldier who went to inquire was hesitant.
The other party already knew that the leader of this divine weapon force was Emperor Xin.
"It's really him."
Emperor Xin didn't expect that Xi Jiuye would go from being a member of Emperor Mo's family to being the leader of some kind of alliance of strange demons in a short period of time.
It seems that something must have happened in the strange demon, so that Xi Jiuye could take advantage of it.
"Xi Jiuye wants to negotiate with me? If that's the case, I'll meet him."
Emperor Xin was a little surprised that Xi Jiuye would be willing to negotiate with him.
The festival between Emperor Xin and Xi Jiuye is really not small.
But the biggest festival should be Ye Lingyue.
For Xi Jiuye, the emperor has the hatred of taking his wife.
As far as Emperor Xin was concerned, his dislike for Xi Jiuye was entirely because Xi Jiuye had hurt the widow deeply in his previous life.
But since the other party wanted to see him, Emperor Xin naturally couldn't persuade him.
The two agreed to meet in Xi Jiuye's tent.
On the side of the Strange Demon Legion, in Xi Jiuye's camp.
At this time, the strange demon camp was also brightly lit.
In fact, this strange demon army had already arrived near the capital of the Heavenly Punishment Emperor as early as daytime.
The leader of this strange demon army is exactly Xi Jiuye who is also deeply trapped in the Heaven's Punishment Desert.
Like Emperor Ye Lingyue, Xi Jiuye was separated from Ye Lingyue and others before the vision of heaven and earth.
He was looking for Ye Lingyue wholeheartedly, but there was no news of Ye Lingyue.
Until he later learned about the existence of the Heavenly Punishment Dynasty from the strange demon stragglers.
Thus, he also learned about Prince Shawu, and even some news about Feng Tianling.
Xi Jiuye was also very surprised when he learned that Feng Tianling was in the hands of Prince Shawu.
He witnessed Ye Lingyue take out the Heaven Sealing Order with his own eyes, which proved that Ye Lingyue was the host of the Heaven Sealing Order that the strange demon said.
If the Heaven Sealing Order falls into the hands of Prince Shawu, it is very likely that Ye Lingyue also falls into the hands of Prince Shawu.
After Xi Jiuye heard the news, he was so anxious that he immediately decided to rush to the Heavenly Punishment Imperial Capital.
From Xi Jiuye's point of view, even though Ye Lingyue said that she loved Di Xin deeply, she still had a place for herself in her heart.
If he could rescue Ye Lingyue and help him regain Feng Tianling, then maybe a life is worth a life, and Ye Lingyue would forgive everything he did to him back then.
With such thoughts in mind, Xi Jiuye rushed all the way to the Heavenly Punishment Emperor's Capital.
On the way to the Heavenly Punishment Emperor's Capital alone, Xi Jiuye came across several groups of demon soldiers from different demon clans.
These magic army teams were also persecuted by evil spirits and even the prince of evil witches, and their personnel continued to sacrifice.
In order to save their lives and leave the Heaven's Punishment Gobi alive, these strange demon family forces decided to unite after discussion.
They are going to form an alliance of different demons to attack the Heavenly Punishment Imperial Capital together.
Coincidentally, among these strange demon forces, there happened to be many young patriarchs including Mo Changkong, Yu Chiqing and Dongmi Junwu whom Ye Lingyue had met in the Cursed Land.
These young patriarchs from different families, after learning the news of Feng Tianling, all received orders from their families to rush to the Tianzhan battlefield to find Feng Tianling's whereabouts.
On the night that Feng Tianling appeared above the Heaven's Punishment Gobi, they also entered the Heaven's Punishment Gobi one after another.
It's just that their luck is not very good, they can get in but not get out.
Fortunately, Dongmi Junwu and others have dealt with each other in the Cursed Land earlier, and they are familiar with each other.
After some discussion, it was decided to form an alliance.
It's just that the strength of each young patriarch is almost the same, so it is difficult to elect a leader who will convince the crowd.
They finally decided to choose the leader by way of competition.
At that time, Xi Jiuye heard the news, and he immediately participated in the competition.
In the end, Xi Jiuye defeated Dongmi Junwu, the leader of the quasi-alliance, with the advantage of three moves, and became the leader of the Alliance of Strange Demons.
Only then did the nearly 20,000 strange demon army that Emperor Shen saw tonight.
When Xi Jiuye became the leader of the alliance, he quickly impressed Dongmi Junwu and others with the momentum of thunder, and gained a certain prestige among the strange demons.
It is Xi Jiuye's policy to stay outside the Heavenly Punishment Imperial Capital and not attack the Heavenly Punishment Imperial Capital rashly.
It's just that neither Xi Jiuye nor Emperor Shen thought that the two would meet again in this way.
The purpose of the two attacking the Heavenly Punishment Imperial Capital at first was the same, both to rescue Ye Lingyue.
