Chapter 152: Strong enemies approach, driving them out for thousands of miles
Chapter 152: Strong enemies approach, driving them out for thousands of milesThe expressions of Man Jin and the other elephants changed dramatically. They quickly retracted their tusks and retreated. At the same time, a fire ignited within them, expelling traces of medicinal residue from their bodies.
As the residue was expelled, their tusks slowly retracted.
The pressure was too overwhelming, beyond what mere willpower could overcome. They could fight those of the same realm, but facing someone a level higher meant death if they didn't retreat.
As the beasts retreated, Xu Hei had already used all his strength to flee into the distance.
At this moment, a phantom image of a middle-aged man emerged from the token, gradually becoming solid.
This man was dressed in white, holding a cup of tea in one hand while the other was behind his back. His eyes were deep, like the sun, moon, and stars, as if he had experienced the vicissitudes of life, yet his face showed no signs of aging.
The moment they saw him, the demon kings felt their scalps tingle, their expressions horrified, as if facing a formidable enemy.
Qin Xuanji, the Grand Elder of the Heavenly Puppet Sect, stood as one of the strongest figures at the pinnacle between the two nations.
He alone could rival ten thousand troops!
The demonic beasts instantly lost their will to fight and retreated, forming a group.
The old monkey king had thought that elders of the Heavenly Puppet Sect couldn't come here, but this shattered his perception.
Though he didn't know if it was an avatar or some other method, the pressure was something they couldn't withstand.
After Qin Xuanji appeared, he didn't take any action, merely releasing his divine sense, sweeping it underground.
The range of this divine sense was vast, far exceeding any Core Formation Stage cultivator; no one could escape its
"Hmph, forget it."
Qin Xuanji shook his head, no longer concerned.
In fact, he had a more important matter to attend to here, one that surpassed everything else, even his attack on the Chu Kingdom was to pave the way for it.
Compared to that, rebels, bandits, and the Flood Dragon were insignificant.
He looked at the demon kings in the distance and spoke loudly, "Esteemed demon kings, my Heavenly Puppet Sect has important matters to attend to here."
"Our sect's third-generation ancestor had ties with your demon lord. Today, we won't make things difficult for you. You only need to retreat ten thousand miles and find another place to reside. Once the matter is settled, this area will be returned."
Qin Xuanji's voice was calm and unruffled.
The demonic beasts exchanged glances, falling into a deathly silence.
The old monkey king remained silent for a long time before speaking in a deep voice, "How long?"
"A year at the shortest, three to five years at the longest," Qin Xuanji replied flatly.
The old demon monkey fell silent.
A year was manageable, but if it dragged on, how would they survive? Moreover, the other party hadn't specified a concrete timeframe. What if it exceeded five years?
"What?"
Qin Xuanji's gaze flickered as he looked at the old monkey king, "Do you have any objections?"
Just a look made the old monkey king's heart tremble, forcing him to retreat several steps, spitting blood.
The difference in realms was terrifying!
This left the demon kings horrified. The old monkey king was at least mid-Golden Core, yet he couldn't withstand even a glance.
"We have no choice but to yield. Qin Xuanji didn't go for the kill, so we shouldn't be ungrateful," the old monkey king said faintly.
"We have no other option," the Purple Lightning Lion King muttered bitterly.
"The territories deep within Wu Mountain are already occupied by other demon kings. We either fight for them or develop on the outskirts."
"Damn humans, they all deserve to die!"
Despite their unwillingness and anger, the demon kings were helpless.
The opponent's strength was too overwhelming for them to contend with.
As long as someone stronger could drive you out of your territory, saying they'll borrow it for three to five years without outright seizing it was already courteous.
Of course, Qin Xuanji might have his own concerns, preventing him from acting recklessly.
However, the demon kings didn't dare to gamble, nor did they see the need to take such a huge risk to offend the immensely powerful Heavenly Puppet Sect.
"Let's hope you keep your word," the old monkey king said, staring at Qin Xuanji.
"As long as you don't cause trouble, I'll naturally keep my promise," Qin Xuanji replied.
After exchanging a few words, the demon kings had no choice but to abandon the area and leave.
Man Jin's territory seemed to be right at the edge of the ten thousand miles, uncertain if they needed to relocate.
Just then, Qin Xuanji's gaze subtly glanced at him, causing Man Jin to shiver internally and hastily speed up his departure.
