Chapter 837: Long Haochen’s Ancestry? (II)

All the people controlling the magic cannons died from the dragon’s roar. Long Haochen still failed to stop the Demon God Emperor’s attack. He was still the one who had lost the clash. However, if he had not tried to stop the Demon God Emperor, there would not just have been deaths. Even the tough magic cannons would have been destroyed under the Demon God Emperor’s roar.

Long Haochen knew very well that his full strength attack, the attack that had contained the Divine Light Waltz, had been defeated. Even though it was not obvious, the Demon God Emperor’s strength still seemed insurmountable, because the Demon God Emperor was clearly nowhere close to trying his hardest without using the demon god transformation and the power of the Devil Dragon Pillar.

The Demon God Emperor said at great ease, “Let’s leave the matters here to the others. Let’s go up and play. It’s been a very long while since someone’s made me interested in fighting. You should feel proud just over that.”

As he said that, the Demon God Emperor rose into the air as a streak of dark golden light.

Long Haochen showed no weakness. He flapped his wings and flew off as a white streak of light.

The two leaders rose into the air together and entered their own battlefield. To the demons, this was unbelievable, because they had never thought that there would actually someone who could hold his ground against the Demon God Emperor. To the humans, they felt greatly relieved, because Long Haochen could actually stop the Demon God Emperor. This brought them significant confidence.

As the two leaders rose into the air, the battle between the humans and demons completely unfolded. Without the Demon God Emperor’s orders, all nineteen demon gods, including the Moon Demon God and Star Demon God, entered the battle, leading the demon army towards the Dragon Resisting Mountain Pass.

The light from the Devil Dragon Pillar did not shift as the Demon God Emperor rose into the air. Its dark golden light continued to protect the demons. It was possible to say that the blast from the magic cannons earlier would have caused even greater losses for the demons if it were not for the Devil Dragon Pillar’s protection.

The human powerhouses all set off as well, receiving the demon army boldly. The two sides engaged in a full scale clash.

Long Haochen had already played a huge role on the battlefield. It was because of his block that the magic cannons were not completely destroyed. While the people behind the cannons had died, they could be replaced and the magic cannons could be used again. Even though the new people would be less skilled compared to the original group, they were actually able to maintain a balance as soon as the two sides clashed with the support of over two hundred magic cannons.

Aside from the nine who fell in battle, basically all sixty-three Eternal Heroes had gathered here. It was exactly because of their existence, over fifty domain wielding powerhouses, over a dozen of which could use Self Incarnating Domains with two peak existences at the seventh rank of the ninth step, that the humans were able to hold their ground against the demons.

The battle had never been so intense before.

Shu Yongxiao went to receive the Moon Demon God Agares, while Xiao Huo faced off against the Star Demon God Vassago.

Originally, it should have been revered. However, Vassago was a prophet, so assassins posed no threat to him at all. No matter how powerful Shu Yongxiao’s attacks were, Vassago would always be able to predict where the attacks were coming, so just how limited did her strength become?

This was why Shu Yongxiao and Xiao Huo switched opponents. Shu Yongxiao kept Agares busy, while Xiao Huo forcefully took on Vassago.

Their battles had reached great intensity from the very beginning.

All the ninth step powerhouses of the Bright Glimmer of Hope fought against demon gods as well. Cai’er also appeared on the battlefield immediately, keeping three demon gods busy with the combined efforts of the twelve holy guards.

The most intense part of the battlefield were not those battles, but the battle between the Divine Knight of Adjudication and Trial Long Xingyu and the red-haired, bulky Berserk Demon God Amon who ranked seventh among the demon gods.

They were an pair of old rivals. Long Xingyu had always been slightly weaker than Amon. Now that they had met again, they were especially furious for battle. Right from the start, they became glued to each other in combat.

The people that received the other demon gods basically were all Eternal Heroes of the fifth rank. The Starry Sky Holy Knight Yang Haoyu lead the human powerhouses to stop the Devil Dragon groups. In that moment, the full-blown holy war had unfolded outside the Dragon Resisting Mountain Pass.

Long Haochen followed the Demon God Emperor to an altitude of over three thousand meters before the Demon God Emperor stopped. Long Haochen remained several hundred meters away from him.

As Long Haochen climbed up in the sky, his mind had completely settled down. Regardless of how the battle between the demons and the union ended, the final, deciding battle would be between him and the Demon God Emperor. If he lost, then it went without saying. No one else in the humans could stop the Demon God Emperor. If the Demon God Emperor lost, then even if the Dragon Resisting Mountain Pass had lost their battle, Long Haochen would have the chance to turn everything around. Long Haochen had given orders before the battle that if they were unable to stop the demons, they could carry out a strategic retreat and temporarily abandon the Dragon Resisting Mountain Pass.

There actually were not a lot of people who remained behind in the Dragon Resisting Mountain Pass. Ordinary knights and warriors were unable to play a great role in this battle where the apex clashed against the apex. They had all retreated to the Knights’ Sacred Mountain, forming a second line of defence. Once they carried out a strategic retreat, they could use the light magic arrays from the Knights’ Sacred Mountain to last a bit longer, and Long Haochen completely believed that as long as his battle against the Demon God Emperor had been drawn out long enough, the final victor of the holy war would still be the humans even if both sides sustained heavy casualties. Yue Ye’s organisation had yet to play their most critical role.

“Long Haochen, do you still plan on being obstinate at a time like this?” The Demon God Emperor stood with crossed arms, as if he was not concerned with the battle below at all.

“Obstinate?” Long Haochen found this rather funny as he looked at the Demon God Emperor, “For some reason, when I’ve met your majesty once again, your mental state seemed to be rather off. Perhaps something’s happened to your head from cultivating too much?”

The Demon God Emperor was not annoyed by Long Haochen’s quip, “Something’s happened to my head? Long Haochen, do you really think I’m treating you like this just because of your talent and your current ability? Do you really think you can stand up to me with your current strength? I have my reason for constantly holding back.”

Long Haochen was surprised. He had never thought that after ascending into the sky, the Demon God Emperor would not attack him immediately, but instead try to speak to him earnestly. For some reason, the Demon God Emperor’s expression and tone made him slightly uneasy.

“What’s the reason?” Long Haochen asked coldly. Dragging it out would only be beneficial to him. He obviously was in no hurry to fight the Demon God Emperor.

The Demon God Emperor smiled indifferently, “I can tell that you have great confidence in this battle. You clearly know your strength is nowhere as great as mine, yet you still want to challenge me individually. Just the courage to do so is probably unmatched in the world. Before I tell you my reason, I want to explain why you’re so confident. If I’ve guessed correctly, your confidence stems from Agares, or maybe even Vassago?”

With that, Long Haochen immediately shuddered. He was no longer able to keep his emotions under control. He had never thought the Demon God Emperor would mention this to him in such an easygoing tone.

A cold light flashed through the Demon God Emperor’s eyes, “Agares, how impressive, Agares! As my most trusted brother, you’ve set up this trap for me.”

“The reason why we lost the battles of the Southeastern Fort and the Myriad Beasts Mountain Pass was because your Temple Union was just too well-prepared. You might have even received information much faster than me. If it weren’t for a traitor among my demons who supplied you enough information and had kept the information away from me, could you still have achieved something like that? Among my race, the only ones with the bravery and ability to do something like that is Agares, Vassago, Samigina and Marbas, while the one who’s always been responsible for the news regarding the military situation is Agares. It really was my good brother! I just don’t understand what benefit this will bring him. Is he trying to replace me?”

After a moment of shock, Long Haochen recovered him cool, “The Demon God Emperor really is the Demon God Emperor after all. From this string of unanticipated events, you’ve immediately located the source of it all. However, what I’m very curious about is why you’re not worried at all.”

The Demon God Emperor smiled warmly. He really did not seem flustered at all, “Why should I be? Agares’ betrayal really has pained me. It’s even likely that Vassago has begun question himself because of Agares. However, do you think that it’s enough to shake my foundations? You don’t understand the demons well enough. I can tell you that before you defeat me, at least before I’ve appeared to be defeated, the two of them will never just betray me. Do you really think I’m called the Demon God Emperor for nothing? As long as I am still the greatest powerhouse of this realm, no one will openly betray me. As for dealing with them, it’s not too late after the battle here ends. I believe that even if Agares has been collaborating with you, it’s a limited collaboration. If he’s bold enough to stake everything in a single move, he wouldn’t have waited until now.”

Long Haochen’s heart sank. The Demon God Emperor was just too confident, such that it even affected his own mental state.

That’s right. The Moon Demon God Agares was the true leader of Yue Ye’s organisation. It was exactly because of his leadership that it could grow to such a colossal organisation among the demons. Otherwise, how were they supposed to hide under the nose of the Demon God Emperor?

In the past when Yue Ye had revealed to him that the Demon God Emperor wanted to deal with him, Agares had purposefully made it happen. Agares did not wish to see him dead. Instead, Agares wished that he could lead the humans to truly rise up against the demons.
