Chapter 427: He Offered Too Much (1)

Yang Hong placed his hands on his knees and even stabbed his treasured Mo Mei Sword into the ground beside him.

He said with his breathing ragging, “Your Highness, I can’t take it anymore. I really can’t.”

Even though Zhou Shu had shared the Golden Bell Shield Technique with him, he hadn’t cultivated it himself. After fighting for an entire day, he was so tired that his entire body was numb.

Although he knew that Zhou Shu was giving him a chance to contribute, he didn’t want to kill anymore now. He just wanted to lie flat.

“How can a man say he can’t?” Zhou Shu said calmly.

On this day, he had brought Yang Hong around the Zhuling Grotto-Heaven. Once they met a demonic beast, he would throw Yang Hong out to kill it.

Sometimes, when there were already human troops surrounding the demonic beasts, Zhou Shu would make them stop and let Yang Hong kill the demonic beasts.

In fact, Zhou Shu would even kick over some of the overly powerful demonic beasts that Yang Hong couldn’t deal with and let him kill them with his Mo Mei Sword.

This process was both blissful and painful for Yang Hong.

At the end of the day, he was still in the Ten Nations Martial Arts Tournament space. After killing so many demonic beasts, Yang Hong didn’t know how his military merits would be calculated.

When he went back, he would be promoted by three ranks, right?

But this process was also very painful.

Even with the Golden Bell Shield protecting his body, it was really not that easy to fight demonic beasts. Not only was it tiring, but it also hurt to be hit.

If others knew what Yang Hong was thinking, they would definitely spit in his face.

The king had personally brought him to earn military merits, and he actually dared to complain!

Wasn’t he being ungrateful?

“Your Highness, I really can’t do it anymore,” Yang Hong said, “I’ll really die of exhaustion if this continues.”

“Forget it. Go back to camp on your own.” Before he finished speaking, Zhou Shu had already disappeared.

Yang Hong opened his mouth.

Where am I, and how far is this place from the camp?

I’m so tired that I can barely lift my fingers, and I don’t have the strength that His Highness shared. I will die if I encounter a demonic beast.

Yang Hong looked around helplessly, his hair standing on end.

Zhou Shu naturally didn’t leave Yang Hong in a dangerous place. There were no demonic beasts nearby.

There were not many demonic beasts left in the Zhuling Grotto-Heaven.

The rest were already harmless.

For example, the demonic beast miners and Yao Qing, who had failed to retreat and had no choice but to continue working with Zhou Shu.

The main force of the million-strong Demon Realm army had already been sent back to the Demon Realm. The demonic beasts still in the Zhuling Grotto-Heaven had been wiped out by the human army over the past few days.

Under such circumstances, there was no longer any danger in the Zhuling Grotto-Heaven.

Zhou Shu still had things to do, so he naturally wouldn’t send Yang Hong back to the camp.

After a few breaths, Zhou Shu arrived at the blood vortex guarded by Meng Bai.

The blood vortex was still ten feet wide. In the middle of the black hole, lightning surrounded it, and the scenery of the Demon Realm was slightly visible inside.

“King of the South!” Meng Bai greeted.

“Great General, things have changed. Our plans are about to change.” Zhou Shu went straight to the point.

“Things have changed?” Meng Bai’s expression turned solemn. “Tell me about it, Your Highness.”

“This world will collapse completely in three months at most. When that happens, everything here will be destroyed. Before that happens, we have to get out of here.” Zhou Shu didn’t beat around the bush.

“What?” Meng Bai was shocked. He subconsciously looked at the blood vortex.

There were still almost two years before the Ten Nations Martial Arts Tournament battlefield reopened. If they had to leave this world within three months, they could only pass through the Demon Realm…

In an instant, countless thoughts flashed through Meng Bai’s mind.

He even completed a tactical deduction!

The result was the Ten Nations Alliance being completely wiped out!

Behind this passage was the Demon Realm!

Once they went over, they would not only face the million-strong Demon Realm army from before but also the endless reinforcements from the Demon Realm.

Entering the Demon Realm was no different from courting death.

“Yes, that’s the only way.” Zhou Shu nodded, confirming Meng Bai’s thoughts. “Now, we can only take a detour through the Demon Realm to return to the Ten Nations. There’s no other way.”

Meng Bai was stunned on the spot. It was easier said than done to take a detour to the Demon Realm and return to the Ten Nations.

“Your Highness, there are only a total of ninety thousand people left in this world,” Meng Bai said with a heavy expression. “Even though there are ninety thousand people, and they can all fight, it’s still only ninety thousand people.

“If we go to the Demon Realm, the enemies we face might be ten times, a hundred times more!”

Meng Bai didn’t say the word ‘hopeless’.

“So what?” Zhou Shu said. “It’s better than staying in this world and waiting for death.

“If we stay here, we’ll definitely die in three months. If we go to the Demon Realm, we still have a chance of survival.”

Meng Bai smiled bitterly. This chance of survival was too slim.

Even if they went to the Demon Realm, they wouldn’t know how to return to the Ten Nations. Would the Demon Realm give them a chance to find their way home?

“Great General, this matter is not negotiable. We have to go to the Demon Realm no matter what,” Zhou Shu said solemnly.

“What you have to do now is to get prepared with General Wang Mu and the others! I have some Dark Cloud Armor sets. You’ll be in charge of who gets the equipment.”

Zhou Shu waved his hand, and countless Dark Cloud Armor sets fell to the ground.

Meng Bai was dumbfounded. Even though he was already used to Zhou Shu creating things from time to time, it was still difficult for him to imagine how Zhou Shu had forged so many Dark Cloud Armor sets.
