Everyone suppressed their doubts.The situation in the battle was constantly evolving.“Cash on delivery, shut down the formation first.”Mo Xian calmly opened his hand; his spatial ring was in his palm.Balza walked forward step by step.The entire battlefield was eerily quiet at this moment.Finally, Balza stopped three steps away from Mo Xian.Because Mo Xian clenched his fist, his gaze fixed on the torture formation behind him, and said coldly, “Bring the person over here!”As soon as he finished speaking, he took a step back and said indifferently, “Prepare to retreat.”His voice was unmistakable, and the enemy heard it clearly.In the Demon Clan's command center.Kaliel was anxious and shouted angrily, “Shut down the formation while advancing from the rear.”“Balza, the moment the enemy enters your attack range, attack immediately!”At this moment, a change in human nature occurred.Balza considered himself very clever. He didn't simply follow Caryl's orders, but coldly told Mo Xian, "The formation is behind us. If you want people, come with me."With that, Balza feigned retreat, turning back to the execution formation."Come on," Balza grinned at Mo Xian.The two were now thirty meters apart.Mo Xian's face turned cold. He glanced back at the soldiers behind him, pointing to one of them, "Follow me."At that moment, the gazes of the hundreds of elite human soldiers, comprised of eighth and ninth realm cultivators, followed Mo Xian's gaze.That soldier looked completely unfamiliar.He didn't recognize him at all.The soldier, however, remained unmoved, silently walking to Mo Xian's side.Mo Xian and the disguised Lin He walked towards the execution formation.The two warriors in human uniforms moved further and further away from the human ranks, and closer and closer to the demon army.Thirty meters—a distance that seemed short, yet also long.If the demon army attacked en masse, Mo Xian wouldn't be able to escape.As expected, Mo Xian was separated from the humans, surrounded by demon warriors on all sides, yet he showed no fear, not even the slightest tension.Because he knew Li An was behind him, Lin He was beside him.These names were synonymous with security!Kariel, watching this scene, even straightened up slightly, muttering, "Good, good, good."Mo Xian was the backbone of the Eighteenth War Zone. With his death, the zone would be leaderless, and the entire war zone would be easily crushed by the demon army!The night was silent, the wind blowing gently.Everyone was silent.Whether on the city walls or below, there was utter silence.But Mo Xian still hadn't reached the position Balza wanted."I'll say it one last time, deactivate the formation." Mo Xian stared intently at his opponent.Balza snorted coldly, slightly raising his hand to issue the command."Deactivate the formation!"In the rear fortress, the demon soldiers controlling the Lingchi Formation pressed the deactivation button.The light from the array slowly faded.Balza stared at Mo Xian, but the next second, his expression changed slightly, because the unassuming soldier beside Mo Xian suddenly raised his eyes.Those ordinary pupils held nothing but killing intent!"Release your killing intent towards me?"In that moment of stunned silence,the sky changed.A gust of wind swept by.The figure beside Mo Xian vanished abruptly!"Whoosh!"A gust of wind swept by!A sense of foreboding surged through Balza's heart.But it was too late.Lin He instantly activated, moving at an invisible speed through the center of the array, skillfully carrying six people, and doing one last thing.He threw a bomb at the ground beneath his feet!"Boom!" A deafening explosion erupted, and chaos descended upon the demon camp.Chaos!Li An wanted even greater chaos! Mo Xian moved with lightning speed. Just as Lin He threw the bomb, he also unleashed a source energy smoke grenade and roared, "Cover the hostages' retreat!" A booming human voice echoed through the smoke and explosion.A sandstorm raged!The soldiers on the city wall were ecstatic.Everyone clearly saw that the six people bound to the execution array had vanished!"Success!"The soldiers cheered for almost the duration of a single sentence!Because they all saw it—our army was retreating!On the city wall, source energy gunners instantly formed ranks and opened fire on the rear of our elite troops!The remaining elementalists and martial artists were in a predicament.The distance was too great.From the execution array to the city gate was a full two thousand miles. The elementalists' spells, cast from such a distance, had already lost a tenth of their destructive power, and the martial artists were even more helpless.Should they go out of the city to engage?Below.Mo Xian roared into his military headset, "All elementalists and martial artists on the city walls, hold your positions and await my orders!"Don't move!Don't rush!Every soldier was poised for battle, crouching on the city walls or standing at the city gates, ready to charge at any moment!Before the demon camp, Balzac didn't even consider what was happening!Kaliel was the same.They only knew that the prize they had almost obtained was about to slip away!Balzac roared, "Attack!""All troops, attack! Pursue! Kill! Kill! Kill!!!" The entire demon army charged out, their battle cries deafening!The two thousand demon troops who had been "hidden" in the rear also rushed directly towards the Eighteenth War Zone.Chaos ensued.Everything was in chaos.A smoke grenade, a bomb, a shout of retreat obscured the vision of all the demons and disrupted their thoughts.They knew only one thing: the enemy had abducted six prisoners and was rapidly retreating.They're escaping, so what about us?Chase them!No need to think, just chase them, kill as many as you can!Balza and Commander-in-Chief Caryl roared furiously!A fierce battle suddenly erupted under the previously peaceful night sky, flames, howling winds, and dark elements whistling past the ears of Mo Xian's army!Bulls of law-based energy blasts rained down from behind them!But they didn't turn back.Battle-hardened warriors possessed an exceptionally keen sense for energy fluctuations.They charged towards our headquarters amidst the colorful law-based fire, dodging and weaving, and for a short time, not a single one was hit.Afar away, Auriel took a deep breath, forcing himself to calm amidst the chaos.Something's wrong!How did the enemy manage to rescue those six people?Take six people away in an instant—what speed, what strength!? The enemy camp has top-tier experts!But that was all Aurel thought of.His second thought was that even a single top-tier expert couldn't withstand the onslaught of two thousand troops.Then charge!On the border battlefield.Hundreds of human soldiers rushed towards the city walls.A small demon force led by Balza followed closely behind, with two thousand demon troops advancing at full speed, charging towards the gates of the Eighteenth War Zone!On the city walls, Li An's eyes blazed.Why retreat instead of attacking immediately?To lure the enemy deeper!He was calculating the distance!If they counterattacked immediately, the enemy, seeing the situation was unfavorable, would definitely flee, and some would escape!Therefore, Li An ordered Mo Xian to shout for a retreat, feigning weakness to lure the enemy deeper!There was only one objective!After so much calm, a crimson killing intent appeared in Li An's eyes.His mind replayed Mo Xian's grievances and helplessness, and the lines of admiration for Li An on Xie Jianguo and the other five soldiers' resumes!Dare to torture my followers to death!I'll kill you all!Leave no one alive!The important thing was the two thousand troops behind them.Two thousand li… one thousand li… They were getting closer and closer to the Great Wall, while Balza's small army was already at the city gates!
