It is said that not only are there many Demons, but the number of Eighth-Layer Great Demons also far exceeds the Tier Eight Human Race powerhouses gathered in the Great Marsh Prefecture. There are at least thirty of them!

Therefore, the Third Princess’s original decision to attack in seven days was temporarily postponed. It is heard that the Third Princess has sent a message back, asking the Profound Phoenix Celestial Sect and the Holy Dragon Association to dispatch more Grand Elders of the Eighth Layer or above. Moreover, the commencement of the war has been postponed to twelve days later!

Lin Xuankong frowned upon hearing this. "More than thirty Eighth-Layer Great Demons... The Thick Earth and Geng Metal Ore Vein are more attractive to Demons than to Human Race powerhouses!"

Little Hu nodded. "After all, Demons don’t have the Treasure Elixirs of the Great Xia Dynasty to consume. They rely on Spiritual Objects to advance, needing far more than humans. Naturally, their demand for Spiritual Objects is greater and more urgent!"

"Hmm, the little guy knows quite a lot now!" Lin Xuankong was somewhat surprised.

Little Hu laughed. "Thanks to Elder Lin’s reincarnation and revival! Otherwise, I would have been a dead tiger by now, without the chance to learn these things from the Feng Family’s library!"

After saying this, he restrained his smile and continued, "Additionally, in the Outer City of the Great Marsh Prefecture, over thirty cities were recently attacked by Great Demons. Nearly a thousand Martial Cultivators were killed or wounded, and hundreds of thousands of ordinary civilians were abducted! Fortunately, the territories of our Feng Family, the Guo Family, and the Yin Talisman Sect have not yet been attacked by Great Demons!"

Because of these attacks, the Third Princess recently dispatched many powerhouses to patrol the Outer City of the Great Marsh Prefecture. As a result, a team of Tier Seven powerhouses was ambushed by Great Demons during their patrol, leading to the deaths of a full six Tier Seven powerhouses!

Lin Xuankong frowned, his heart tightening. "Six Tier Seven powerhouses have fallen on Great Marsh Prefecture territory! Are the Demons already starting to harass the Great Marsh Prefecture? And have any Demons appeared near Prison Dragon City or Flying Dragon Slope?!"

The Demon harassment in the Outer City of the Great Marsh Prefecture made him most worried about Xiao Xiuyi.

Little Hu sighed. "There have been no reports of Demon appearances in Prison Dragon City or Flying Dragon Slope! After all, Prison Dragon City has the Demon-Suppressing Array. Generally, unless it’s a Ninth-Layer Great Demon, no Demon would purposely go there to court trouble!

But the other Outer Cities are in a very precarious situation. Who knows when a Tier Six or Tier Seven Great Demon might appear! I have already withdrawn many Feng Family Cultivators from the Outer City defenses. After all, even I, at the Late Stage of the Fifth Layer, would struggle against a Tier Seven Great Demon. Second, Third, and Fourth Layer Martial Cultivators guarding the Outer City are, in essence, just throwing their lives away!"

Lin Xuankong nodded, his heart growing somewhat heavier.

With this thought, his figure flickered, and he leaped onto the roof of the wooden building, gazing towards Flying Dragon Slope.

With a swift movement, he headed towards the outskirts of the Great Marsh Prefecture.
