Protect Our Clan Leader

Chapter 3122: Chapter 103: Return of the King! One Queen, Two Consorts

...

Right when Wang Fugui took the risk to win over Great Commander Fear and achieved some success.

The [Heitoa Pass] on the right flank of the Dongxia Army went through a meat grinder of a battle.

The terrain of Heitoa Pass is treacherous, surrounded by harsh conditions of the Void Sea, where massive space rifts crisscross, and countless corrosive black mists emanate from the gaps, even the powerful physiques of the Demonic Clan find it hard to withstand.

To pass through Heitoa Pass, one can only traverse a winding, narrow path.

This path is complex, with few flying boats able to pass at any given time, and is lined with several defensive lines held firm, accompanied by the numerous void formations arranged by the Human race, creating an indomitable fortress.

This formidable pass was specifically built by the Human race ten thousand years ago to resist the Extinction Department. However, after its fall later on, Heitoa Pass remained in the hands of the Demonic Clan.

Only this time did Ji Taichang seize the opportunity as Great Commander Apocalypse was injured and missing, to retake this grand pass.

However, this time, Heitoa Pass fell again, and the Dongxia Eighth Corps stationed there was annihilated to the last, with the eighth legion commander Yao Changsheng severely wounded and captured.

Of course, the Demonic Clan paid a heavy price too, suffering a one-to-one casualty ratio despite having several times the military strength. If every battle with the Demonic Clan could achieve a one-to-one loss ratio, Ji Marshal would grin even in his dreams.

At this moment.

In the council hall of Heitoa Pass.

Under the lead of Great Commander Fallen, the upper echelon of the Demonic Clan is celebrating, with all kinds of fine wines and delicacies piled all over.

On the main seat, Great Commander Fallen is holding a female immortal of the Human race, drinking with great enjoyment.

Like most Demonic Commanders, it possesses the typical appearance of a high-ranking demon: a towering build, massive horns on its head, and a pair of enormous membranous wings exuding overwhelming ferocity.

Only its jet-black hair is rare among the Demonic Clan, making it particularly distinctive.

”Great, Great Commander, let me fill your cup.”

Two female immortals of the Human race, eyes full of fear, are nestled by its side, serving it cautiously as it eats and drinks.

Unlike Great Commander Fear, Fallen seems to prefer female immortals of the Human race and is more willing to have them serve him, so Fallen has several female immortals in his retinue.

However, in this lively celebration banquet aimed at celebrating the capture of Heitoa Pass, not all Demonic Clansmen are happy.

In a corner, two Demon Lords with powerful auras have extremely gloomy expressions, contrasting starkly with the surrounding atmosphere.

They seem not yet out of the war, still carrying wounds, with a strong scent of bloodshed remaining on them.

Behind them sits a group of similarly low-spirited Demon Lords and generals.

”Blood Pigeon, if not for you bringing in wolves, we wouldn’t be in such a pitiful state.” One female Demon Lord glares fiercely at another Demon Lord, pointing to herself, then to the group of Demon Lords and generals behind her, ”Look at now, look at them, don’t they look like a pack of stray dogs?”

She is enchantingly beautiful, yet now appears somewhat disheveled, with her purple eyes filled with endless fury, clearly emotions pent up for a long time.

”Zhiwei!” Blood Dove Demon Lord’s mood is equally bad, and being pointed at and accused like this, his sharp avian eyes grow increasingly cold, ”Can you really blame me, the Demon Lord? If you hadn’t repeatedly opposed me, creating internal strife, Blood Dove would have long hoisted the banner of the Destroyer Devil Territory.”

Indeed, these two are currently the only two Level Sixteen Demon Lords within the Destroyer Devil Territory.

Initially, Blood Dove Demon Lord was rallying some forces planning to establish himself, akin to the ”Independent Faction,” whereas the forces led by Zhiwei Demon Lord were clearly awaiting the return of the Exterminator, always insisting on waiting for the return of the Great Commander Exterminator, belonging to the ”Supporting Faction” of the Destroyer.

But now, neither is having a good time because they both belong to the ”Cannon Fodder Faction.”

”With just you, can you carry the banner of our Destroyer Devil Territory?” Zhiwei sneers, looking as if hearing a joke, ”Have you even looked at yourself? What are you but a nobody?”

”And you? Are you any better?” Blood Dove Demon Lord retorted sarcastically, ”Don’t think I don’t know, you secretly sent people to contact the [Queen of Pain] two years ago, are you ready to give up waiting for the commander’s return and pledge allegiance elsewhere?”

”Tit for tat, weren’t you secretly contacting the [Tyrant Lord] too?” Zhiwei Demon Lord added a stab, ”Have you already prepared to become a dog?”

The two Level Sixteen Demon Lords exchanged sharp words, each seemingly nonchalant, yet deep in their hearts, both were bleeding.

Recently, they’ve been having a miserable time.

First, they discreetly declined the invitations from the Queen of Pain and the Tyrant Lord, only to be ”dispatched” to serve under Great Commander Fallen, yet Fallen didn’t value them at all, assigning them all sorts of menial and grueling tasks.

Just like in this [Bloody Battle at Heitoa Pass], Zhiwei Demon Lord and Blood Dove Demon Lord had successively served as cannon fodder vanguards.

In such a meat grinder of a vicious battle, although they eventually secured victory, their losses were equally severe.

Now, they are like two injured, bloodletting Fierce Beasts, with too many negative emotions bottled up inside, only able to alleviate their pain through mutual accusations and complaints.
