King of Creation Chapter 2168 - 2153: Divine Guard Team

The words ’childish’ made the face of the Seventh Crown Prince of the Demon Emperor, Congyun, turn blue and red alternately, feeling extremely embarrassed.

Of course, it wasn’t that the Seventh Crown Prince of the Demon Emperor, Congyun, was childish; he was simply too confident as he pursued all the way.

He never expected that Ye Zhen would have laid an ambush with the Water Clan here, and such a strong one at that.

It’s worth noting, in the countless years of wars on the Human Demon Battlefield, the Water Clan has either been besieged by armies or hunted as food and trophies by both sides.

Water Demon?

What kind of thing is that?

On the Human Demon Battlefield, not only has it been unseen for many years, it hasn’t even been heard of.

And to be defeated by this elite force carefully prepared by Ye Zhen, brought along by the Great Saints of Jinghai, Fug Hai, and Sea-Breaking, the Seventh Crown Prince of the Demon Emperor, Congyun, could not feel more justified in his defeat!

The tactics of ambush, combined with the advantage of the Blood River increasing the Water Clan’s combat power while decreasing the combat power of the Demon Clan soldiers.

It was hard not to be defeated.

It is no injustice that the great army of the Seventh Crown Prince Cong Yun encountered this devastating defeat!

As for how this Water Clan came to the Blood River...

The reason is simple - Ye Zhen brought them through the Mirage Dragon Pearl Space.

When Ye Zhen came to survey the terrain of the Blood River Fortress, he brought the Great Saints of Jinghai and others to temporarily settle in the Blood River.

To be honest, bringing along such a Water Clan was particularly strenuous.

Not to mention the unbelievable amount of food consumed along the way.

The higher the cultivation of the Water Clan demons, the greater their appetite.

However, today’s battle achievements alone make it worthwhile!

After his face turned a pale shade, the expression of the Seventh Crown Prince Cong Yun suddenly recovered, "In this battle, your prior arrangement of the Water Clan elite forces indeed won, and I concede to you.

But our battle has just begun.

From this day forth, I will never be so careless again!" Killing intent suddenly filled the face of the Seventh Crown Prince Cong Yun.

"The next time we meet will be the day of your death!" The face of the Seventh Crown Prince Cong Yun was full of determination.

"Next time?"

Ye Zhen suddenly chuckled, "The day isn’t over yet; how can there already be a ’next time’!"

Upon hearing this, the Seventh Crown Prince Cong Yun’s expression slightly changed, "Do you think you can stop me from leaving today?"

Ye Zhen looked at the two Demon Lords of the Demon Clan Dao Realm whose auras blanketed this part of the world from afar and slowly shook his head, "I don’t have the capability to keep Your Highness here, but as for your army today, none should think about going back!"

The truth is, Ye Zhen honestly didn’t have the confidence to detain the Seventh Crown Prince Cong Yun!

"Dream on!"

The gaze of the Seventh Crown Prince Cong Yun sharpened like arrows, looking at the elite below who were the very best of his great army.

If they all perished here, the combat strength of his forces at the Blood River Fortress would be reduced by at least half.

Amongst them were even the elite forces of his Crown Prince Guard.

Thus, even though this force had already suffered more than half casualties, he must bring the remaining ones back!

"Retreat the entire army!" The Seventh Crown Prince Cong Yun instantly issued the order.

"Even if you wish to retreat, your army must have a chance to do so!" Ye Zhen sighed leisurely, pointing at the battlefield below and shaking his head, "Look, do they still have the chance to retreat?"

The Sky-Breaking Dragon-Slaying Crossbow has already killed nearly all the experts daring to show themselves in this army, and the remaining elites did not dare to reveal themselves.

The siege by the Water Clan, the slaughter by the army, the assault by the Demon Spirit Soldiers, the chaotic state — all made it increasingly difficult for the Seventh Crown Prince Cong Yun’s army.

"Have you forgotten, I still have them!"

With a wave of his hand, seventy-one streaks of black light flew from the Seventh Crown Prince’s palm, and in an instant, a chillingly fierce aura arose as seventy-one Demon Emperor Battle Puppets roared into the battlefield.

Each Demon Emperor Battle Puppet possessed strength far surpassing an ordinary Ninth Stage of the Realm King Realm expert, fearless and with extremely strong combat power.

Each Demon Emperor Battle Puppet could be used as a half-step Dao Realm force.

Previously, during the scramble for the Ancient Demon God’s heritage in the Demon Soul Realm, twenty-nine of his hundred Demon Emperor Battle Puppets fell.

At this moment, to rescue the remaining elite, the Seventh Crown Prince Cong Yun went all out, deploying all the remaining seventy-one Demon Emperor Battle Puppets.

If he could not take these remaining elites back, the combat power of his forces at the Blood River Fortress would greatly decrease, making it hard to conquer it with the current military strength.

For the Seventh Crown Prince Cong Yun, having a million-strong army unable to take even a Blood River Fortress guarded by a mere Zone 22 Human Clan army was shameful.

That would be a black mark.

That would be a handle for his brothers, who are competing with him for the throne of the Demon Emperor, to attack him.

He must take back as many of these elite as he can.

At the moment the Demon Emperor Battle Puppets appeared, Ye Zhen’s expression changed dramatically!

The reason Ye Zhen did not hesitate to expose the Water Clan elite force brought by the Great Saints of Jinghai was to lay the foundation that the Blood River War Zone could not be breached.

The Seventh Crown Prince Cong Yun brought a million-strong army. Prior to this, Ye Zhen’s sneak attack on the vanguard had reduced its strength to 820,000.

This time, with Gu Tieqi’s attack from both sides on Cairo Fortress and Jii Qi, the Seventh Crown Prince Cong Yun’s forces were reduced by nearly 60,000 again.

The Seventh Crown Prince Cong Yun’s forces suddenly shrank to 760,000.

At this moment, in the battlefield, the 80,000 troops brought by the Seventh Crown Prince Cong Yun were the elite of the elite of his army.

Eliminating them was equivalent to removing the backbone of the Seventh Crown Prince Cong Yun’s great army.

Not only would it reduce the Seventh Crown Prince Cong Yun’s forces to 680,000, it would also double the reduction in combat power of his army.

If this objective is achieved, the Seventh Crown Prince Cong Yun’s remaining forces of 680,000 with reduced combat power and low morale would find it extremely difficult to breach the Blood River Fortress, Yang Gate Fortress, Cairo Fortress, or the elite force outside led by Ye Zhen.

This would easily maintain the defense until two days later when Governor Ni Feng from the Northern War Zone arrives with at least 100,000 reinforcements, even potentially turning defense into offense.

This was also the strategic goal of Ye Zhen’s military plan this time.

But if the Seventh Crown Prince Cong Yun manages to take this portion of the elite back, the result would be different.

It would subject Ye Zhen’s Blood River Fortress defenses to tremendous pressure and casualties over the next two days, and it would waste the well-crafted strategic opportunities of Ye Zhen.

Despite the high vigilance of the Demon Clan’s army, Ye Zhen’s elite force had no chance; it was the proactive provocation of Jii Qi by the garrison under Gu Tieqi that secured this strategic opportunity, and the 5,000-strong North Sea Heavenly Wave Army boys in Cairo Fortress cannot die in vain!

Moreover, throughout more than a day of defensive battles, Ye Zhen’s North Sea Heavenly Wave Army had already suffered more than 10,000 casualties, with countless wounded.

The pressure to defend would only increase; this battle requires complete annihilation of the enemy!

"Demon Emperor Battle Puppet?"

A cold smile suddenly appeared on Ye Zhen’s lips, "Your Highness, you are not the only one who has such means, I have them too!"

"Yidongqing Divine Tree Guardian Corps, Divine Guard Team, come out!"

With a thought, the light of the Mirage Dragon Pearl Space’s exit appeared near Ye Zhen’s palm, over a thousand streaks of flowing light flew from Ye Zhen’s palm.

A surge of powerful and violent King Realm auras suddenly appeared.

A thousand and ten experts clad in distinctive Yizhi Sand Sea attire materialized out of thin air.

Among these thousand and ten, a thousand were all King Realm experts, and their cultivation ranged from Mid-stage to Late Stage of the Realm King Realm.

The remaining ten were Dao Realm experts!

They were Dao Realm Divine Guards from Yizhi Sand Sea, led by palace managers Huang Tuo, Patan, Zhang Yide, and Qinglian.

At the same moment, Ye Zhen let out a light shout into the void, "Achou!"

Instantly, there was an inexplicable fluctuation in the void, seemingly without much change.

However, the two watchers from the Sect of the Demon Emperor in the Dao Realm exhibited some unease as they looked toward the distant depths behind them.
