486: Chapter 486 Six Demigods

"Report~~"

"What is the matter?"

"The Human Race seems to be gathering."

"The Human Race is gathering? Could it be that they intend to launch an offensive?"

At the Yao Race camp near the Red Flower Demon Realm Entrance.

Upon hearing this, the Monkey Clan Demon Venerable felt his heart tighten. He was puzzled; for the past three months, the Human Race had been suppressed and beaten, holding their base desperately and never launching an offensive. Why were they suddenly gathering their forces now?

"Tell the minor demons to stay on guard. I will go and take a look. Lei Hu, you go and report this to Demigod Panshan."

"Understood."

After saying this, the lead Monkey Clan Demon Venerable flew into the air and headed toward the Red Flower base. He did not fly fast; after all, he was only there to scout for information, and getting too close would make it easy to be ambushed by the Human Race.

On the other side.

Great Demon King Lei Hu arrived at the Demon Realm Entrance.

At the entrance.

Five tall figures sat cross-legged here, each possessing immense strength. Within a two-kilometer radius, no member of the Yao Race dared to approach, not even the Demon Venerables.

The two Demigods on the left both possessed the same sharp horns and belonged to the Sheep Clan. On the right, one was a Leopard Clan Demigod, and the other was from the Rat Clan.

The one in the center was an ape, pitch-black all over with fur like steel needles. Even while sitting on the ground, it was nearly a hundred meters tall, resembling a small mountain.

Although the four surrounding Demigods were larger in size than this black ape, the strength they radiated was inferior to his.

Clearly.

This Demigod from the Ape Clan possessed the most formidable strength.

"Demigod Panshan, the Human Race is suddenly gathering."

"Demon Venerable Moyun has gone to scout, and he asked me to come and report this."

At this moment.

The Ape Demigod located in the middle of the five figures spoke, "Ye Xiao, what is the situation?"

In mid-air.

A pair of round, amber eyes suddenly opened. The pupils were pitch-black and deep, revealing a calm yet sharp gaze.

As the pupils constricted twice, an invisible gaze seemed to pierce through more than ten kilometers, and a slightly magnetic voice rang out.

"The Human Race is indeed gathering their forces."

Demigod Panshan said, "What are your thoughts, everyone?"

"I don't think there is any need to keep dragging this out. That Human Race woman is clearly at her limit. Let us all attack together and kill her; then we will have taken the Vermilion Bird Kingdom and won the first merit," the Leopard Clan Demigod said.

"Are you going to deal with that Human Race woman yourself? Don't let her take one of us down with her before she dies; it wouldn't be worth the loss," one of the Sheep Clan Demigods said.

"Hmph, cowardly as a rat. What are you afraid of when it's six against one?" the Leopard Clan Demigod snorted coldly.

"Hey, what does that have to do with me? Say what you want, but don't use words indiscriminately," the Rat Clan Demigod retorted, unhappy with the comparison.

Leopard Clan Demigod: "..."

The Sheep Clan Demigod snorted coldly, "Beicang, against that Human Race woman, in a one-on-one fight, other than Panshan, who is her match?"

"You've forgotten the pain once the wound has healed, have you? What, has your arm recovered?"

"Hmph!"

The Leopard Clan's Demigod Beicang snorted coldly and subconsciously touched his arm. The fur on half of his arm was bare; a month ago, the three of them had fought her one-on-one, yet they had still suffered a great loss at the hands of that Human Race woman.

"Then let us split up. There is no point in dragging this out here; that woman cannot block us all at the same time," Demigod Beicang said.

"It would be best not to," Demigod Ye Xiao's voice came from above. "The strength of those three Puppets is not inferior to ours. Once we are alone, we could easily be picked off one by one."

"Those three Puppets have reached the Ninth Realm, which requires at least a First-Grade Divine Body Treasure to activate. In a barren land like Blue Star, how could there be so many Divine Body Treasures?" Demigod Beicang clearly did not want to sit and wait for death by dragging things out like this.

"I am considering it for your sakes. Whether we attack together or split up makes no difference to me," Demigod Ye Xiao said.

Among the avian species, the Owl Clan might not be as fast as the Eagle Clan, but they were much faster than those running on the ground; if he could not win, he could still escape.

"Panshan, what is your view?"

After a few seconds of silence.

Panshan spoke: "Beicang, I know you are anxious for revenge, but there is no need. The Human Race has a saying: 'Caution is the parent of safety.'"

"Hmph!"

Demigod Beicang snorted softly and closed his eyes. With Panshan saying this, it was clear he did not intend to continue the attack.

As expected.

Demigod Panshan said to Lei Hu, "Pass the order down: the next wave of attacks is suspended. Let us see what kind of tricks the Human Race is playing. If they truly launch an offensive, then we will meet them in battle."

"Understood."

"Furthermore, once the entrance stabilizes, have Demigod Shanlun and Demigod Keya enter as soon as possible."

"Yes, Demigod Panshan."

The Yao Race held the advantage in high-end combat power, and Demigod Panshan did not fear war, but the Human Race had always been treacherous, so he had to be on guard.

As for the splitting up that Demigod Beicang suggested, he acted as if he hadn't heard it at all. In wars against the Human Race, there were countless instances where the weak defeated the strong and the few defeated the many; he would not take that risk.

Great Demon King Lei Hu departed.

The entrance returned to silence.

...

Half an hour later.

The entrance twisted for a moment, and a Fox Demon Venerable appeared.

"Why have you come?"

Demigod Panshan asked.

"Zihu pays her respects to Demigod Panshan and to all the Demigods."

"Speak, what is it?"

Panshan's voice was cold, with no discernible tone.

Demon Venerable Zihu said, "Demigod Tianhu has asked this concubine to inquire of Demigod Panshan why the offensive has come to a halt."

"You received the news so quickly?"

"Demigod Tianhu has followers among the Human Race," Zihu said with her head lowered.

Demigod Panshan glanced at Zihu and said, "The Human Race's actions are abnormal, so the offensive is suspended."

"But, according to the plan..."

"Hmm...?"

Panshan's lantern-sized pupils swept across Zihu.

Demon Venerable Zihu's heart tightened instantly, almost stopping, and she dared not speak further.

"Hmph~"

"Go back and tell Tianhu that I am not her subordinate and do not need her to tell me what to do."

"Yes... this concubine understands."

Without staying for even a second longer, Zihu turned around and plunged into the entrance, returning to the Demon Realm.

"Hmph, this Tianhu just wants us to exhaust the Human Race's strength. We have been attacking continuously for a day, yet there hasn't been a single movement from the other world entrances," Demigod Beicang said.

"That's right. They agreed to pin them down, but in reality, they haven't done anything at all, just sending the minor demons below to their deaths," the Rat Clan Demigod chimed in.

From the shadows, Ye Xiao also said, "One cannot help but fear those world entrances of Great Xia. The Human Race's Xiao Weiqing has yet to appear, and no one knows if he is lying in ambush."

"Hmph, I think they are scared out of their wits by that Xiao Weiqing, hesitant and timid," Demigod Beicang said coldly.

Panshan shook his head. "No, I know Huang Qi. He has conquered several civilizations by relying on reading the situation. He definitely suffered a great loss last time; otherwise, he wouldn't be playing dead this time and failing to come to Blue Star."

"Therefore, we must remain vigilant regarding Xiao Weiqing."

Among the three entrances in Great Xia, the Luo River Entrance had the most invading Demigods from the Yao Race, totaling five, yet they had been slow to break the stalemate.

In fact.

The number of engagements at the Demigod level was the lowest among the five entrances, precisely because Xiao Weiqing had not appeared; no one could guarantee they would survive if they were targeted by Xiao Weiqing.

As the saying goes, the Human Race is the most treacherous; one can never be too careful.

If it weren't for the fact that the entrance was not stable enough, they could have sent an army of a million Yao Race soldiers in at once, so they could just drag it out slowly; there was no need to take risks.

At this entrance, they would be able to take it within a week at most.
