"The Strongest Martial Emperor in the City"!
Upon noticing Yang Qi and Emperor Jueying charging towards them, the leading cultivator's face darkened, "Too fast! Without the advantage of numbers, we can't stop them at all!"
Yang Qi and his companion left the battlefield, and the Seven Evils Emperor and others immediately took their place and intercepted the six practitioners. In this way, the Jueying Emperor and Yang Qi could concentrate on dealing with the other seven practitioners from the monster clan!
The seven cultivators from the monster clan obviously saw this, and their faces suddenly became extremely ugly. The strength of Yang Qi and Emperor Jueying was far above theirs. Once they were killed by the two, all seven of them would be in danger.
The most crucial thing is that the two of them are too fast. If they don’t send cultivators to stop them, Yang Qi and Emperor Jueying will soon catch up with the seven of them.
Thinking of this, the face of the leading demon beast cultivator changed for a moment, and he said in a deep voice, "If you want to survive, you must send cultivators to hold back Emperor Jueying and the mysterious cultivator!"
As soon as these words were spoken, the remaining six practitioners fell silent. In their plan, there was no such arrangement at all. The seven of them should be able to escape directly and would not be responsible for covering the retreat.
Facing Yang Qi and Emperor Jueying, if they stayed behind to cover their retreat, the final outcome would be predictable. In this situation, among the seven practitioners who had a chance to survive, who would be willing to stay behind to cover their retreat
After all, when you reach the peak of the Eight-Star Martial Emperor, you are only one step away from the Emperor level. No one wants to die unless it is absolutely necessary!
The leading demon beast cultivator, seeing that no one took the initiative to stay behind to cover the retreat, couldn't help but look gloomy, and said coldly, "If no one stays behind to cover the retreat, none of us can leave alive!"
Without anyone to cover their retreat, once Yang Qi and the other two came to attack, the seven of them would inevitably be in a tough fight. By then, no one would be able to escape and all would die.
Seeing this, the late-stage eight-star martial emperor cultivator said calmly, "I will stay behind to cover your retreat!"
Among the crowd, his strength is relatively weak. Once Yang Qi and Emperor Jueying come to kill him, it will be almost impossible for him to escape with his strength. In this case, it is better for him to stay behind to cover their retreat and fight for a chance to survive for other practitioners!
"Let this emperor stay as well!" said a burly cultivator from the monster clan.
He is the practitioner with the longest years of practice among all the people. In addition to gaining military merit, he also hopes to hone himself and strive to reach the level of Emperor in his lifetime when he enters the Void Battlefield.
Now, facing the certain death of being the last one to leave, he chose to stay. After all, other practitioners had a better chance of reaching the level of Emperor than he did. Between the two choices of dying together and being the last one to leave, he chose the latter.
As the two men finished speaking, the other five practitioners fell silent. It was obvious that none of them wanted to stay behind to cover their retreat. It was impossible for them to stop Yang Qi and Emperor Xuxing with just the two practitioners in front of them.
The cultivator who was the leader of the demon beast clan had a serious look on his face. He looked at his two companions and said, "You two stay behind to cover our retreat!"
Hearing this, the expressions of the two cultivators from the monster clan changed, but they did not dare to refute at all, and could only nod.
"Let's go!"
After four practitioners stayed behind to cover their retreat, the leading practitioner from the monster clan immediately led his two companions and fled towards the depths of the dark red fog without slowing down.
"war!"
The four practitioners who stayed behind looked at each other, and then formed two teams and attacked Yang Qi and Emperor Jueying respectively. Even if the two practitioners were no match for Yang Qi and Emperor Jueying, they could still stop them slightly.
Looking at the two cultivators coming to kill him, Yang Qi couldn't help but frown slightly, then looked at Emperor Jueying not far away and said, "Daoyou Jueying, do you need me to use the Cauldron of All Things?"
From the time Yang Qi entered the monster tribe's settlement from the human tribe's settlement to now, Yang Qi has never used the Cauldron of All Things, mainly to hide his strength. After all, the information about Yang Qi in the void battlefield is not detailed and accurate. In this case, Yang Qi can hide his strength to play an unexpected role at the critical moment.
Upon hearing this, Emperor Jueying shook his head slightly and said, "No need. Even if you use the Cauldron of All Things, it will be difficult for us to keep all the cultivators of this group of monsters!"
By activating the Cauldron of All Things to exert soul suppression, their advantage could indeed be further expanded. However, facing the desperate practitioners of the Monster Clan, they would have to spend some time to break through the opponent's blockade.
What's more, there are still three cultivators who escaped. Once the other party scatters to escape and keeps a certain distance, it will be impossible for Yang Qi and the other person to keep all three escaped cultivators.
Since it is impossible to keep all the practitioners of the monster clan, instead of letting Yang Qi expose all his strength and means, it is better to let Yang Qi hide his strength. This will be more beneficial for them to gain military merits when they hunt down the practitioners of the monster clan next time.
They came to the Monster Clan's base not just to kill the Monster Clan practitioners in front of them, but to kill more Monster Clan practitioners and gain more military merits. There is no need to expose all their strength and means for the sake of momentary pleasure.
Once all the strength and means are exposed, it will be easier to be targeted by the practitioners of the monster clan, and it will be much more difficult to gain military merit.
Therefore, after a brief consideration, Emperor Jueying did not choose to let Yang Qi reveal the existence of the Cauldron of All Things, but let Yang Qi continue to hide his strength!
Hearing Emperor Jueying's words, Yang Qi was stunned at first, but then he understood Emperor Jueying's thoughts, and he strongly agreed with Emperor Jueying's ideas.
In the absence of certainty of keeping all the cultivators of the Monster Beast Clan alive, preserving their strength is more important to Yang Qi and others than hunting down more cultivators of the Monster Beast Clan.
Boom! Boom!
In a flash, Yang Qi and Emperor Jueying were fighting with the four cultivators who came to kill them. Even though the four cultivators from the monster clan started to fight desperately, facing Yang Qi and Emperor Jueying, who were both top-notch cultivators in the early stage of Nine-Star Martial Emperor, the four cultivators from the monster clan were instantly at a disadvantage even after fighting desperately.
The late-stage eight-star martial emperor's gaze fell on Yang Qi, his face full of disbelief, and he thought to himself, "Who on earth is this person? How could he have such terrifying strength?"
It was no wonder that the late eight-star martial emperor was so shocked. He himself was at the peak of the eight-star martial emperor level. In the void battlefield, he was considered a demon. However, in front of Yang Qi, his strength was not worth mentioning. Although he was also at the late eight-star martial emperor level, Yang Qi was considered to be quite powerful even at the early nine-star martial emperor level.
