Xun Pingyang and Zeng Yue looked pale, their clothes were torn and stained with blood, and the three university scholars who were rescued by the two were still unconscious.

"Where is Kong Yan?" Fang Yun asked as he took a university scholar from Xun Pingyang and carried him on his back.

"Brother Kong Yan was trying to cover our retreat, so I'm afraid he has been... killed in action." Xun Pingyang looked sad.

Fang Yun nodded slightly and wanted to say something, but didn't open his mouth.

Everyone returned to Wanxing Mountain and settled the three seriously injured university scholars. After Xun Pingyang and Zeng Yue had their wounds treated, Fang Yun arrived at the council hall with the two and the demon king of Wanxing Pass.

Hu Li said: "You two can tell me what happened."

Xun Pingyang and Zeng Yue looked at each other, and Xun Pingyang said, "It went smoothly at the beginning. The great demon kings of the Seventh Cold City easily entangled the great demon king of the Blood Demon Barbarian, and then we found the right time to start attacking the camp. Because the timing of the attack was very good, we successfully killed seven demon kings and dozens of demon lords, and severely damaged many demon kings. Then we evacuated quickly as agreed, but Xiong Huan suddenly went crazy and knocked away the great demon king of the Star Demon Barbarian and started chasing us. Thanks to Senior Shuyin who found a way to delay for a while, we escaped from there. But then, the remaining five great demon kings of the Star Demon Barbarian were blocked by the four great demon kings of the Blood Demon Barbarian and a large number of demon kings and demon lords, so that the great demon king of the Star Demon Barbarian was unable to continue to help us, causing Xiong Huan to chase us all the way. We attacked and obstructed Xiong Huan one after another, and were also injured one after another. In the end, when we saw that we were all killed by Xiong Huan, Brother Kong Yan used the Blood and Red Heart to stop Xiong Huan for a while, which gave us the opportunity to get close to Wanxing Pass for help."

"Xiong Huan is dead. I hope the spirit of Grand Secretary Kong Yan can rest in peace. Xiong Huan tried his best to deal with me as soon as we met. It seems that he consumed a lot of energy along the way. He knew that it would be disadvantageous for him if the fight continued." Fang Yun said.

Zeng Yue sighed and said, "We are grateful to Brother Kong Yan, and we should be grateful to you. If you hadn't stopped Xiong Huan in time, we would have died and wouldn't have been able to wait for Senior Shu Yin to arrive."

Hu Li and other demon kings looked ashamed. Not to mention stopping Xiong Huan, they couldn't even get to Fang Yun when Xiong Hui was seriously injured.

Fang Yun said: "This matter was caused by me. Grand Secretary Kong Yan was killed in battle. I should bear the greatest responsibility."

Xun Pingyang frowned and said in a very dissatisfied tone: "If you say so, then Brother Kong Yan's spirit in heaven will not be at peace! From the perspective of military affairs, killing a big demon king and multiple demon kings, while our human race lost a university scholar in battle, is a great victory! From the cause, we all think that your plan is reasonable, even if you are not here, we are very likely to do so. Finally, for us, not only respect your status, not only love your poems and articles, but also love you from the bottom of our hearts. People who dare to take action. When the human race was facing a crisis, you did not sit and wait for death, nor were you afraid of the consequences of failure. You took the initiative to seek a breakthrough. This is the active reason why we were willing to attack. On the way, several of us had rumors and talked about this matter. Brother Kong Yan said that if we died in battle, it had nothing to do with Fang Xusheng or other people. It was just because we were doing what we should do, and death was just a normal result! If we must investigate death, we can only investigate whether our death brought victory to the human race!"

Zeng Yue added: "As the saying goes, victory or defeat does not determine a hero. But we won. After the human race is settled, at least someone will offer a glass of wine and pay respect to their graves!"

Xun Pingyang said slowly: "Not only can you sacrifice everything for the human race, we can do the same. We don't want to die, but when we have to die, we are not afraid of death!"

Fang Yun nodded slightly without saying a word.

Those star demons looked at these three humans with unprecedented emotions surging in their hearts. They suddenly understood why humans with such weak bodies could stand tall in the world and compete for supremacy with all the worlds!

"As long as you are in Shengyuan Continent, you should visit the graves of Peng Zuzhao and others every year. I think their spirits in heaven will feel at peace, just like Brother Kong Yan, knowing that you are alive." Zeng Yue said softly.

Fang Yun pursed his lips and gritted his teeth gently, the moisture in his eyes welled up and quickly dissipated.

The three-valley battle was the thing Fang Yun was most reluctant to recall, but many times, he had to force himself to remember it.

"Those grudges will be avenged one by one. There is no rush, no rush." Fang Yun said slowly.

Many demon kings present felt a chill in their backs. Fang Yun's tone was apparently very calm, but in their perception, every word Fang Yun spoke was like spitting out a sharp real dragon ancient sword.

"What should we do next?" Hu Li asked.

Fang Yun asked, "Next, will the Blood Demon Barbarian Great Demon King in other places get the news and return quickly?"

"Once they learn that the camp has been attacked, they will definitely do so." Hu Li said.

"How long will it take for the earliest great demon king among them to reach the Blood Demon Camp?" Fang Yun asked.

"About... an hour." Hu Li said.

"Very good, we can just make a surprise attack!" Fang Yun said.

The eyes of the two grand secretaries and all the demon kings lit up.

"This is indeed a good strategy! The closer it is to the time when those great demon kings return, the more relaxed the Blood Demon Barbarian camp will be. At first, they will certainly be tight on the outside but relaxed on the inside, but soon they will think they are safe and will no longer be so vigilant. Once we launch a sudden attack, our performance will surely be better than before."

Hu Li said: "However, even if they relax, there will be a great demon king secretly monitoring them. How can we hide it from the great demon king in the beginning?"

Fang Yun smiled slightly and said, "In Xue Yao Man's opinion, who is more powerful, Xiong Huan or Senior Shu Yin?"

Hu Li instinctively replied, "Xiong Huan's notoriety spreads far and wide, and Uncle Shu Yin's reputation... ahem, has always been hidden, so he will probably be looked down upon by the Blood Demon Barbarians."

"What will happen when the wounded Xiong Huan drags the body of the great demon king Shuyin slowly back to the military camp?" Fang Yun asked.

Everyone was surprised and delighted.

"If we can really hide from the Great Demon King, even if only for a while, as long as Uncle Shuyin gets close, he can assassinate another Great Demon King! However, the Blood Demon Barbarians have long been prepared for the illusions of our fox clan, and those Great Demon Kings can see through them at a glance." Hu Li said.

Fang Yun said: "Don't forget our human race's military tactics."

Xun Pingyang said helplessly: "Fang Xusheng, are you going out?"

"Now that the Blood Demon Barbarians have lost a great demon king, and at a time like this when the enemy is weak and I am strong, how can I continue to hide in Wanxing Pass and wait for a good opportunity to slip away?"

Xun Pingyang and Zeng Yue looked at each other and nodded helplessly.

Zeng Yue said: "Fang Xusheng, you must swear to Wen Dan that you must strike once and flee far away, and never fight to the end! We are not afraid of anything else, but we are afraid that you will kill with bloodshot eyes and ignore everything, and finally be held back by the blood demon barbarians. Once the enemy's great demon king comes back, I don't need to say more about the consequences."

"Don't worry, I will cooperate with Senior Shuyin. Regardless of whether the assassination is successful or not, I will retreat immediately."

"Humph, as long as you can deceive the enemy demon king, I will surely be able to assassinate him successfully!"

Shuyin's voice came from nowhere and fell into everyone's ears.

"Okay! Let's head to the Blood Demon Barbarian Camp right away!"
