The Female Cannon Fodder With Boundless Merits-Chapter 1380 - 1393: Evil King’s Pursuit of His Consort (12)

Chapter 1380: Chapter 1393: Evil King’s Pursuit of His Consort (12)

Mortal World

It has been a full day since the demon soldiers and demon generals suddenly broke through the city gates and flooded into the city, committing large-scale slaughter.

The City Lord exhausted all his strength to light the Immortal Inquiry Incense. The blue smoke reached the sky, but there was no response from the Upper Immortals they worshipped for a long time.

All the citizens knelt in front of Wenxian Hall, utterly despairing.

Faced with the ferocious and terrifying demon soldiers and generals, the frail bodies of ordinary mortals were as vulnerable as vegetables, offering no resistance whatsoever.

Even the robust martial artists couldn’t withstand a single blow or scratch from them.

Most importantly, these demon soldiers and generals were more brutal than the most wicked bandits and robbers.

Not only did they burn, kill, plunder, but they also cruelly ate the flesh and drank the blood, laughing loudly with excitement at the sight of weak mortals in terror and despair.

In normal times, those hypocritical cultivators always shouted to fight against them. Even the Evil King was somewhat restricted by some agreements with both factions and couldn’t be as recklessly unrestrained as today.

The gentle mortal women of the Mortal World were tender and soft, falling lifeless without much suffering, leaving much to be desired.

Su Family Manor

"Zheng’er, quickly take the younger sisters into the secret chamber. No matter what happens outside, you must not come out."

The current Family Head of the Su Family, Su Qi, leaning on a cane, instructed with a serious expression, "The outside is completely surrounded by those demons. Our family’s defensive array probably won’t hold for long. Those demons will soon break in."

"How could it be...." Su Qi’s daughter-in-law covered her mouth, trembling all over, tears uncontrollably streaming from her eyes.

Her hands tightly clasped together, she anxiously sought comfort from her husband, "Wasn’t the array given by Auntie? Didn’t she become a cultivator too? How could it...." not withstand.

Her last murmurs faded into her husband’s silent rage, her sobs uncontrollable.

"The array given by Auntie won’t hold much longer. Zheng’er, you are still young, and your future is long. You must not fall into the hands of those demons, just...." Su Qi’s sorrowful eyes swept over the terrified faces of the younger generation in the room, then signaled the servant behind him to come forward.

The servant held a large box, filled to the brim with daggers, the cold gleaming light pushing the somber atmosphere in the room to its peak.

Some collapsed on the ground, while others wailed loudly.

Su Qi just said with a desperate resolve, "Each of you, take one. If you fall into the hands of the demons.... this will spare you some pain."

"Grandfather, is there really no way? Auntie she...." A young boy with a still slightly naive face was at a loss and bewildered in the face of such changes.

"Auntie hasn’t contacted us for eighty years.... Father once said, the cultivation world is full of perils, she probably...."

An elderly man in a wheelchair, frail and ancient, was helped in.

"Ancestor, why have you come."

"I’ve lived long enough. If not for holding the hope of seeing my sister once more, I would have left long ago.... Zheng’er, you are the hope of the Su Family. As long as there is one last person from the Su Family, the Su Family will not perish, so hurry...."

"Today, none of you shall leave."

Arrogant and brutal laughter, accompanied by the tragic sounds of flesh and blood clashing, echoed throughout every corner of Su Family Manor.

The face of the Su Family members changed drastically, "Zheng’er, quickly, take your younger siblings and leave."

Su Qi’s daughter-in-law, a woman who was usually as soft as a boneless creature, suddenly burst with enormous strength, pushing her children towards the secret chamber.

Unfortunately, they underestimated the capabilities of the demons.

Everyone in the room involuntarily levitated, swept out and fell into the largest outer courtyard of the Su Family Manor.

This place was once the training ground of Su Family Manor, vast and spacious.

But now, the training ground resembled a blood-soaked hell, with piles and piles of corpses.

Some still had their eyes open, dying with regret, some had severed limbs, faces contorted....

These people were the elite guards of the Su Family Manor, unable to hold out even for a moment.

Even the Su Family Ancestor, who had seen much of the world, turned pale with fright.

"Heaven wants to destroy my Su Family."

No one knew why, overnight, the demons suddenly invaded the city, killing anyone on sight.

Standing here, one could hear the various sobbing cries and screams of despair from outside.

The screams of women, the crying of infants, made it feel as if one had fallen into an endless hell.

Yet the Immortal Leaders, whom they dedicated their entire city’s strength to worship, did not appear.... At the crucial moment when they needed them the most, they did not come.

"Don’t come any closer, the Immortal Inquiry Incense has been fully burnt, the Immortal Leaders will be here soon."

Su Qi blocked his family behind him, speaking urgently and resolutely.

"Hahaha.... Those people won’t come, the massacre of the city was ordered by the Evil King. Even the reputable sects wouldn’t dare to offend our Evil King...."

"Do you really think you lowly ants are worth those people’s attention.... It’s only those insignificant loose cultivators who covet your offerings."

"By now, seeing our Evil Sect’s banner, they must be trembling in fear, hiding who knows where."

The hearts of the Su Family sank bit by bit, falling into the abyss of despair.

The leading evil cultivator, as if observing ants in his palm, relished the terror and despair within his prey.

His voice resonated like sound waves throughout the city.

He wasn’t just speaking to the people of Su Family Manor, but to all the mortals in the city.

In the next second, feeling the bloodlust-laced negative energy in the air, he took a deep, intoxicated breath.

This feeling, how intoxicating it was.

Like an addict, he eagerly snapped his fingers, "Leave this place to me, you go revel."

The group of demons following him hollered loudly, excitedly leaping and vanishing from sight.

Almost immediately, the cries outside multiplied, and the more pungent stench of blood filled the air.

Several members of the Su Family couldn’t help but retch.

The civilians, upon hearing this, as if losing their faith, froze on the spot, gradually lowering their resistance and quickly were slain by the demons.

They held on until now, driven by hope.... that the Immortal Leaders wouldn’t abandon them mortals.

Hadn’t they said, mortals are humans too.... But it wasn’t so, after all.

The citizens kneeling inside and outside Wenxian Hall, praying for the descent of the Immortal Leaders, had their foreheads pressed against the cold ground, yet felt as if soaked in freezing ice.

Suddenly, the City Lord leaped up from the ground, using all his strength to topple the Immortal statue inside Wenxian Hall, smashing it to pieces.

"Those bastards, I’ll fight you to the death."
