Dugu Yu, the Lord of Nanyu City, has been worried these days. Just outside his city, more than a hundred miles away, on the other side of the Bovilia Plain, Nanhuo City was occupied by the human coalition.
Lord Nangong Wei and several other lords personally led an army of 300,000 to surround Nanhuo City.
He had been worried about the development of the war. After learning that the demon army of 300,000 and hundreds of warships had surrounded South Fire City, he breathed a sigh of relief, thinking that South Fire City would be recaptured soon.
Unexpectedly, the news that came back was that the demon army had lost the first battle and suffered heavy losses. Hundreds of warships were destroyed, and only about 100,000 people were left out of the 300,000-strong army.
This news was originally kept secret, but Nanyu City was closest to the battlefield and received the news the fastest.
Nangong Wei sent orders, requesting more than 20 cities to withdraw a part of their garrison to form reinforcements. Dugu Yu also sent out 10,000 reinforcements. He thought he was the closest and these 10,000 people could be sent to the battlefield in just one hour, so he waited for other cities to send troops to the capital first.
Who would have thought that in the early morning, he saw flames rising into the sky and dark clouds in the direction of Nanhuo City. Feeling that something was not right, he immediately sent people to investigate.
It didn't take long before the scout warrior ran back in panic, followed by a large number of injured demon warriors.
"It's bad, Lord City Lord, our defense camp has been captured by the human coalition forces."
Dugu Yu was horrified: "What about Lord Nangong?"
"He and Lord Jiang Zhong were surrounded, and Lord Zuolu escaped first."
"Ah, where is General Ward in the north? He went back to the north to gather reinforcements, but he never came back."
Dugu Yu felt as if his head was hit by a hammer, buzzing, and he quickly asked people to continue investigating and receive the defeated soldiers and wounded from the battlefield.
Just when he was busy and extremely nervous, he received a message from Nangong Wei from Nanhuo City.
Nangong Wei's face was terribly gloomy: "Lord Dugu Yu, tell City Lord Sun Hu to lead the army to retreat to Nanyue City, and then you go to the Amethyst Mine and quickly deliver a ton of amethyst ore to Nanhuo City. Do you understand?"
Dugu Yu was confused. He didn't understand why he had to retreat to Nanyue City, and not only that Sun Hu had to retreat to Nanyue City as well, but also that amethyst ore had to be sent to Nanhuo City.
"I understand, but why..."
Nangong Wei shouted angrily: "Just listen and understand, don't worry about why. I'll give you one hour. You must deliver the amethyst ore before dawn, otherwise you will be held accountable."
After receiving Nangong Wei's order, Dugu Yu dared not delay. Nangong Wei was moody and could not afford to punish him for incompetence.
He quickly contacted Sun Hu and transferred the holographic image of Nangong Wei to Sun Hu.
City Lord Sun Hu is a giant nearly three meters tall. He is taller than other demons. Since the lord has issued an order, he dare not disobey it.
Dugu Yu took a spaceship to the mining area to move another ton of ore, and then quickly drove the spaceship to Nanhuo City.
Along the way, we saw blazing flames burning on the plains of Bevilia, and countless corpses of demons lying in the mud, with blood gathering into rivers.
Dugu Yuxin's heart continued to sink, which showed that this was a brutal battle.
At this time in Nanhuo City, the magic defense barrier had disappeared, and the human coalition forces armed with live ammunition stood on the top of the city wall. A demon spaceship flew over, and someone immediately reported it to Ye Feng and his team, and aimed the magic crystal cannon at the spaceship.
Dugu Yu hovered the spaceship over Nanhuo City and shouted, "We are here to transport ore. Where is our lord?"
Tianqizi stood on the top of the city wall, responsible for defending the city wall. He sneered and said, "Your lord is in our city. General Ye has something to say. You can land."
Dugu Yu landed the spaceship on top of the wide city wall.
Ye Feng calculated the time and found that it was no more than an hour. He smiled and said, "Lord Nangong, you are really punctual. It seems that the ore has been delivered at the agreed time."
"Since I delivered the ore as agreed, you should let me go."
"Wait a minute, I'm still waiting for news from Nanyu City and Nanyang City."
Nangong Wei said contemptuously: "Your efficiency is too slow. Didn't you send people out to inquire about the situation in Nanyu City a long time ago? Why haven't they come back yet? Were they caught by my people?"
Ye Feng smiled and said, "Don't worry, our people are outside."
Ouyang Dao and Ouyang Yuan slowly descended from the sky on their flying swords. The two sword lights were as dazzling as mercury. The two Daluo Golden Immortals exuded powerful immortal spirits, and their every move gave people a feeling of immortal style.
Nangong Wei was shocked when he saw this. There were so many talented people in Nanhuo City.
Ouyang Dao clasped his fists and said, "Reporting to General Ye, the two of us have been monitoring Nanyu City and Nanyang City. Their city defenders have already retreated. At this moment, the demon people are scrambling to retreat."
"Lord Nangong, please, I hope we can have a pleasant cooperation."
Accompanied by Ye Feng, Nangong Wei came to the top of the city wall.
He felt indignant, happy? I am lucky that I am not hated to death. You guys are blackmailing me and threatening me. I will definitely find an opportunity to repay you double for all the hatred.
Seeing Nangong Wei coming over under the guard of a group of people, Dugu Yu hurriedly went to greet him in panic.
Nangong Wei has always been arrogant. He usually shows off his power and aggressiveness to his subordinates. But after seeing Dugu Yu today, he showed a weak and powerless look.
He took a few steps and staggered, as if he had suffered a heavy blow. He was shaky and almost fell.
Dugu Yu quickly supported Nangong Wei and expressed deep sympathy: "Sir, are you okay? Are you injured?"
Nangong Wei showed a painful look, waved his hands, didn't want to say anything, pointed to the spaceship behind him, signaled Dugu Yu to get on the spaceship quickly, and leave here quickly to avoid humans changing their minds.
Ye Feng waved at the spaceship, as if saying goodbye to an old friend.
"Remember to come and play often."
Come play? Play shit.
Looking at Ye Feng through the glass, Nangong Wei wished he could bomb Nanhuo City with the magic crystal cannon immediately. He roared on the spaceship.
"Boy, don't be complacent. I will let you know the benefits of this deity."
Dugu Yu's spaceship slowly took off and then flew rapidly to the south, as fast as a flash of lightning, eager to escape from this place and quickly disappeared from everyone's sight.
The entire Nanhuo City was in an uproar, and began a near-carnival celebration. People sang and danced, drank and sang, celebrating the ancient warriors joining the human coalition and celebrating the victory of this battle.
Elder Tianqin looked at Ye Feng with admiration: "Good boy, we have finally gained a foothold in the Demon Realm, and occupied the most fertile land in the Demon Nine Realms, the Bevilia Plain."
