“Didn’t he call you an adult? Why don’t you go have a talk with him?” Ji Fengyan slit the throat of a demon with her sword and smiled at Liu Huo, who had a serious face.

Liu Huo glanced at Ji Fengyan. “If he really took me seriously, then there wouldn’t be this battle.”

Ji Fengyan shrugged her shoulders. She did not take it seriously, but…

She scanned across the demons in the hall and looked towards the Demon King.

“This Demon King can summon unlimited demons as his puppet. If we continue this battle, we will lose our men.”

The demons were all already dead, but the soldiers from the Blaze Army and Wolf Smoke Regiment were all alive. Even if they had to sacrifice one soldier for two demons, it was still a huge loss for them.

“Since he likes to use puppet this much, then I shall meet him.” Ji Fengyan narrowed her eyes. She immediately killed off all the surrounding demons, then she took a step back and shouted, “Everyone evacuate!”

Ji Fengyan’s command made all the soldiers stunned but they could only follow the military orders and distance themselves from the demons, while making their way to the entrance of the palace.

And the puppet demons in the palace did not continue to advance.

The Demon King was complacent and watched in satisfaction at everything. His gaze overlooked everyone and focused on Ji Fengyan.

“Such ignorant brat, now do you know to be afraid?”

Ji Fengyan scoffed, “Afraid? Unfortunately, I never knew the meaning of this word.”

Right after her sentence ended, she whipped out a cloth bag from her Space Soul Jade.

Standing behind Ji Fengyan, Linghe’s eyes immediately lit up after seeing that cloth bag.

Ji Fengyan had asked him to bring the bag from the rations store before the army set off.

The soldiers from the Blaze Army and Wolf Smoke Regiment did not understand why Ji Fengyan had suddenly taken out a cloth bag. Under their doubtful eyes, Ji Fengyan opened the bag.

Crash…

The yellow beans in the bag all fell to the ground one after another under Ji Fengyan’s feet.

Everyone was stunned.

This…

Why did General Ji pour out so many yellow beans?

The Demon King’s lips curled into a cold grin upon seeing those yellow beans, but before he could say something, Ji Fengyan suddenly used her sword tip to make a cut across her palm. A large patch of blood flowed out of her wound to the ground and onto the yellow beans.

“Using my soldiers against your puppets will cause a huge loss to me. Since you like to use puppets, then I shall have some fun with you.” Ji Fengyan’s eyes flashed with a smile. After she told her last word, the beans that were under her feet had instantly sprouted. A thin and tall seedling gradually rose from the beans and formed a strange-looking humanoid vine in front of everyone.

The eerie situation stunned all the soldiers behind Ji Fengyan. Even the almighty Demon King was also shocked.

“What is this?” The Demon King stared at the humanoid vines that were trying to stand up unsteadily. He actually could not sense any life in these things.

“Spilling the beans to form my army.” Ji Fengyan smiled gently. She lifted her hands, then said slowly to those humanoid vines, “go and ‘have some fun’ with them.”

With the command from Ji Fengyan, all the humanoid vines charged towards the palace and started to battle with the demon puppets.

The puppets under the Demon King’s control were not scared of death, and did not know pain, so using her own soldiers to kill these puppets was a loss that Ji Fengyan was unwilling to continue.
