727 The Grotto-Heavens Appear, The Demon Realm Retreats Temporarily (2)

At this moment, Ji Lutian finally couldn’t hold on any longer, and his body swayed. If Zheng Sanguang hadn’t caught him in time, he would probably have sat on the ground like Zhou Shu.

“How are you? Are you seriously injured?” Zheng Sanguang supported Ji Lutian and was at a loss. He had no problem fighting, but he really couldn’t treat him.

“I’m fine. I just need to rest for a while.” Ji Lutian shook his head. “Please send me to see Brother Zheng.”

Zheng Sanguang seemed to know Ji Lutian. He nodded solemnly and supported Ji Lutian as light rose under his feet. The next moment, he rode away on a cloud.

Zhou Shu opened his mouth, but no sound came out. Even though Zheng Sanguang left, the people from the Sima Grotto-Heaven and the Xu Ling Grotto-Heaven were still here. Moreover, Zheng Sanguang had just said that the grotto-heavens had already appeared, so he would definitely have to deal with them in the future.

The doubts in his heart would be resolved one day.

“Daddy!” Xiaoyu’er scuttled to Zhou Shu’s side and said dejectedly, “That big dog ran away. I didn’t kill him.”

“It’s okay.” Zhou Shu comforted her and saw Meng Bai and Mi Ziwen supporting each other as they walked over.

The two of them were covered in injuries, and they even had to support each other when they walked. It was obvious how serious their injuries were.

But although his injuries were serious, they still survived. In this battle, countless comrades would never be able to return to the Ten Nations Continent.

“Great General, Big Brother…” Zhou Shu said.

The three of them looked at each other with complicated expressions.

Who would have thought that things would turn out like this just as they set up base in the Demon Realm?

The 30,000-strong Ten Nations Alliance had already seen their homeland, but they had fallen in front of their homes.

After a long silence, Zhou Shu asked, “How are the casualties?”

Meng Bai and Mi Ziwen shook their heads. They hadn’t had time to count the casualties, but they didn’t need to. They knew that the numbers wouldn’t be good.

Just from what they saw with their own eyes, Han Dazhi of Great Liang had died in battle, Zhang Wuyuan of Great Qi had died in battle, Tang Chengshi of Great Jin had died in battle…

These people had experienced the Ten Nations Martial Arts Tournament and the series of battles in the Demon Realm, but they had all died in this sudden battle.

“What are you doing?”

Just as the three of them had mixed feelings, a commotion suddenly sounded.

When they looked up, they saw that Great Qin’s Xu Shi seemed to be in a conflict with the people from the Sima Grotto-Heaven and the Xu Ling Grotto-Heaven.

“Big Brother, help me up.” Zhou Shu frowned and forced himself up.

After going through the crowd, Zhou Shu finally arrived in front of Xu Shi and the others with the support of Xiao Jianghe.

“This is Great Qin’s territory. Great Qin will defend it!” Xu Shi was also covered in injuries. He changed from his usual style and spoke angrily to the person opposite him.

“Defend? How are you going to defend? With your heads?” The person opposite snorted coldly. “I told you to get lost, so get lost. Why are you talking so much nonsense?”

This person’s tone was extremely impatient. In the battle just now, all the forces had suffered casualties, and no one was in a good mood.

Zhou Shu pulled over a Great Qin soldier and asked about the situation.

After asking, Zhou Shu used his saber to support himself on the ground and stepped forward. “Lord Xu, calm down.”

“Your Highness!” Xu Shi looked over and saw that it was Zhou Shu. He cupped his hands in greeting. “Your Highness, you came at the right time. I don’t know where these people came from, but they’re too rude! They actually asked Great Qin’s elite soldiers to retreat and hand this place over to them.”

Zhou Shu nodded. “I understand. Lord Xu, how about leaving this matter to me?”

Xu Shi was stunned for a moment. Although Zhou Shu was Great Qin’s Side-by-side King, he had never cared about Great Qin’s matters.

He pondered for a moment and nodded.

“You’re a king of Great Qin?” The person on the other side looked at Zhou Shu. “You came at the right time. Get all the useless Great Qin people to retreat. Don’t hinder us from setting up defenses here.”

Zhou Shu frowned slightly. He didn’t know if he was from the Sima Grotto-Heaven or the Xu Ling Grotto-Heaven. Although he had good intentions, his tone was too annoying.

What do you mean by useless Great Qin people? You’re fighting demonic beasts, but aren’t they also fighting demonic beasts?

“Aren’t you going overboard?” Zhou Shu said coldly.

“Overboard?” The man smiled coldly. “Am I wrong? You don’t even have a cultivation level above the third rank of the Martial Dao. If you’re not trash, what are you?”

“Were you born with high cultivation?” Zhou Shu could tell that this person was at the Earth Immortal realm. In the past, there were definitely many experts like him. “We’re all fighting the invasion of the Demon Realm. Why hurt others?”

“We’re the ones fighting. What can you do? Wave a flag and shout? What things can you useless people do except increase the battle results of the demonic beasts?” The man sneered.

“Your Highness!” Xu Shi couldn’t stand it anymore. They had just lost countless soldiers in battle. Facing the Demon Realm army, these good soldiers hadn’t even taken a single step back.

“Have you never learned how to speak?” Zhou Shu’s expression darkened.

What Zheng Sanguang said had made him feel that he had misunderstood the grotto-heavens. In addition, both sides had fought side by side against the Demon Realm army, so he had been very polite.

But this person’s every word was full of disdain for the Ten Nations’ armies. The soldiers of the Ten Nations had just fought to the death. They couldn’t be insulted!

“If you haven’t learned how to speak, go back and learn properly before coming out and embarrassing yourself!” Zhou Shu said coldly. So what if he was an Earth Immortal? He was only equivalent to a Great Demon. It wasn’t like he hadn’t killed a Great Demon before!

“You’re very bold.” The man’s eyes narrowed slightly, and his killing intent erupted.

The powerful killing intent seemed to lower the surrounding temperature. Xu Shi, Xiao Jianghe, and the others involuntarily took a few steps back.

Zhou Shu had no strength left, but in his sea of consciousness, five towering mountains automatically appeared and suppressed everything. He didn’t move or shake as he looked straight at the man. “Since we’re fighting side by side, we are considered comrades. You’d better be polite.”

“Haha…” The man laughed. “Do you trash think you’re worthy of being our comrade? I’ll say it again. Get lost immediately! If you delay us from setting up our defenses, don’t blame me for being ruthless!”

Zhou Shu was also a little angry. Are all people from these grotto-heavens so arrogant?

“Your Highness!” The people of Great Qin were violent to begin with, and Xu Shi couldn’t take it anymore.

Zhou Shu shook his head. “Get the brothers to retreat first.”

Be it the Ten Nations Alliance or the elite soldiers of Great Qin, after the battle just now, they were all exhausted and injured.

In any case, the Demon Realm army wouldn’t attack for a while. Since this person was so arrogant, he would let them set up defenses here first.

Xu Shi took a deep breath. Although he was a little unwilling, he would definitely not object to Zhou Shu in front of outsiders.

“Yes!” Xu Shi gritted his teeth.

Zhou Shu turned to look at Meng Bai. “Great General, tell our people to retreat to the Ten Nations Continent. Retreat thirty kilometers.”

Meng Bai nodded and cupped his hands. “Yes, I’ll make arrangements now.”

Zhou Shu looked at the man from the grotto-heavens. “May I know your name?”

“Hmph, that’s right.” The man sneered. “Useless people should have the self-awareness of being useless. Defending against demonic beasts isn’t something that trash like you can do.

“With us resisting the demonic beasts, you only need to be grateful. As for my name, you don’t need to know. You and I are not from the same world at all!”
