Demon King: Hero, don’t run away!

The hero’s news is completely absent?

Yang Yu frowned.

If the hero’s whereabouts are confidential, Klaroci would definitely tell Yang Yu truthfully, saying that only the King of Setis knows. It seems that only the King of Setis indeed knows.

”If he doesn’t want to talk, there’s nothing we can do.

Perhaps the hero is undergoing secret training, waiting for a breakthrough.

I have faced the hero before; he still has much room for improvement.

If there’s news of him, please contact me as soon as possible.

There are some things I’d like to hear his thoughts on.

He might be able to provide some insightful opinions.”

Luo Ze Emperor Klaroci nodded solemnly, indicating he would inform Yang Yu immediately if there’s any news about the hero.

After the contact ended, Yang Yu couldn’t help but feel a hint of concern. He was willing to expose his identity to help the hero, planning for the hero to serve as ”bait,” attracting the attention of the Demon Clan to give himself more room to maneuver.

But it has been over a week, and there hasn’t been any news of the hero’s activity...

Could he have been so discouraged that he gave up?

I hope not...

Supposing Heroic Warrior Volcrix suddenly has an epiphany and draws the Holy Sword, what unexpected situations might he encounter...

For example...

Although Yang Yu was always prepared for the worst, when he thought about certain possibilities, his heart couldn’t help but tremble, sincerely hoping those situations wouldn’t occur.

Suppressing the emotional fluctuations on his face, Yang Yu severed the connection with Klaroci, looked toward the distant sky, and, with his companions, proceeded north of Luo Ze Empire to implement his plan.

...

...

Two days later.

Luo Ze Empire, a frontline battle between Luo Ze Empire and Demon King Army.

The bright sun filtered through cotton candy-like clouds, shining on the white snowy terrain, bringing a trace of warmth to the cold Arctic Circle, though it wasn’t enough to melt the ice and snow.

Luo Ze soldiers, clad in red armor, roared courageously, clashing fearlessly against the powerful Demon Clan.

In an instant, blooms of crimson burst in the muddy snow.

Tian Hanxue lightly stepped onto the prominent ice peak, gazing at the nearby battlefield.

The Demon King Army, at an indescribable speed, was swiftly devastating the human forces.

The second wave of troops and logistics team had already passed through the Gate of Demon World, addressing various logistical issues, taking over the administration of different areas.

The Demon King Army’s march was steadily advancing; the human forces were no match for the Demon King Army.

Occasionally, powerful individuals emerged to influence the pace of advancement, but they were all cleaned up by the cadre of the Demon King Army and Tian Hanxue.

Thus far, the Demon King Army had not encountered any significant difficulties.

Except.....

Rewind to the day Yang Yu and the others escaped, Tian Hanxue reported the failed operation to the Deceitful Emperor.

Purple glints flickered beneath the black helm of the Deceitful Emperor, revealing no emotion; his voice remained as low and profound as ever:

”To withstand such an attack and escape from your grasp.

They deserve attention.

But this also has some of your complacency, doesn’t it?”

Tian Hanxue nodded, honestly admitting:

”That person ended up at the Star Eyes Clan’s residence not by chance.

It seemed they had anticipated our visit there early on.

They were also pursuing the truth of something, so I tested whether they could become our allies.

Unfortunately, due to Lord Demon King’s orders, I couldn’t disclose certain information to him.....

Ultimately, the battle ensued, and I revealed my trump card.

If Lord Demon King could allow me to disclose our mission to them, perhaps we could recruit them without bloodshed, making them work for us.”

The Deceitful Emperor firmly dismissed Tian Hanxue’s suggestion:

”Only those who join us and earn our full trust can be told the truth.

Telling them our true mission recklessly might spread the news, and the Resistance Army would undoubtedly resist more fiercely.

Even those working under us might become negligent, or even die for their elusive beliefs.

Until our mission is accomplished, we cannot casually reveal our intel.

This was the experience of past Demon Kings’ failures.

The influence lasted for millennia; back then, the difficulty of the Demon King’s world conquest directly increased by a level.”

Tian Hanxue respectfully replied, ”I understand Lord Demon King’s meticulous intentions and swear never to casually disclose our mission.”

The Deceitful Emperor continued:

”If they truly uncover the truth of the world and acknowledge our actions.

Perhaps they will actively join our cause.

But if there is any chance they become a hindrance, you should not hesitate.

Although I don’t know the details of your battle, I trust your judgment.

If you feel you can’t handle them, bring in the other two.

Remember my words: if they display power beyond specifications.

Absolutely do not choose to clash head-on with them.

Except for the hero, I currently don’t know exactly how many goddess’ apostles exist in this world.

We cannot ascertain the difficulty of dealing with each apostle.”

”Understood, I will be cautious.

For this moment, Lord Demon King has waited a hundred years.

This time will certainly succeed.”

Tian Hanxue replied, and, with the Deceitful Emperor’s permission, rejoined the ranks of the Demon King Army’s world conquest.

Everything returned on track.

The clear skies gradually gathered dark clouds, and heavy snow began to fall.

The battlefield situation was now without suspense; Tian Hanxue stomped on the ice peak with her wooden sandals, her body drifting, disappearing completely with the wind and snow.

Next, she would continue to fulfill the responsibilities of the Four Heavenly Kings, handling all the troublesome enemies on the battlefield, allowing the army to advance more smoothly, bringing more land under the Demon King’s rule.

In Tian Hanxue’s mind, Yang Yu’s visage emerged.

Last time he got away, but he must still be intent on opposing the Demon King.

Perhaps they are somewhere on the battlefield, contemplating ways to hinder the Demon King Army.

If others are called to help, he would certainly be completely taken care of.

Tian Hanxue felt an impulse within; this time she swiftly made a decision:

Let’s try again! Try once more to capture him, eliminate his allies, bring him into her boudoir, and make him surrender.

If it doesn’t work this time, she indeed needs to call others to assist.

If lucky, her two uncles might leave her a ”plaything”; if unlucky, Yang Yu is truly an opponent that must be defeated, her two uncles won’t show mercy.

At that time, she must mentally prepare herself.

Aligning with the strategic route, Tian Hanxue led a small elite team, continuously roaming along various routes, dealing with occasional troublemakers in battle, clearing obstacles for the Demon King Army.

Everything seemed so smooth, but soon after, Tian Hanxue received news of swift retreats from a demon army unit.

The smooth attack of the Demon King Army stalled at a certain fortress

A man wearing a peculiar mask, aided by support from the Goddess Sect, kept the Demon King Army outside the doors.
