World-Ending Demon Emperor-Chapter 1650 - 731: Martial Arts War! One-Sided Slaughter!
Leading two thousand five hundred members of the Death Warrior Group, they swiftly flew towards the Misfortune Cave Abode.
When Lanling was one thousand five hundred li away from the Misfortune Cave Abode, he encountered unexpected guests—five Shadow Warriors.
The lead Shadow Warrior bowed towards Lanling and said, "Greetings, Lord Lanling. Our master sent us to provide support."
The master he referred to was, of course, the Rakshasa Crown Prince.
After a moment of silence, Lanling said, "Thank your master for me, but it is unnecessary. Your involvement would complicate the entire battle."
Indeed, if the forces of the Little Rakshasa King joined this martial arts battle, then the five great Venerables, Elder Mokan, Prince You Ming, and other forces would also continue to send more experts, making the entire battle immeasurably complex.
Moreover, in Lanling’s view, this Heaven’s Fury operation was to purge the ranks by annihilating the Misfortune Cave Abode in the most bloody and ruthless manner, to stun the entire Rakshasa Domain.
Most importantly, it must be done entirely relying on his own strength, without using any external aid, otherwise, the intimidation would be insufficient.
He wanted to send a message that, even if the Skeleton Legion is gone, my Flame Demon Banner will not be trampled on. Anyone who provokes me, Lanling, no matter who they are, will be exterminated, their clans obliterated.
The Shadow Warrior said, "Understood, we will report back to our master then." 𝘧𝓇ℯℯ𝑤ℯ𝘣𝓃ℴ𝓋𝑒𝑙.𝑐𝘰𝑚
Lanling said, "Safe travels, sir!"
The five Shadow Warriors departed.
Princess Sha Yan suddenly said, "Husband, I know what you’re thinking. You want to use your own strength to intimidate all enemies—I truly love you for that."
Princess Sha Yan spoke such lovestruck words because Lanling refused the military support from the Little Rakshasa King but accepted the addition of the martial path forces from Princess Sha Yan’s mansion.
Of course, Princess Sha Yan’s mansion couldn’t compare to Prince Youming’s mansion or Elder Mokan’s mansion, having only two Demon Venerable level powerhouses, the Grand Commander of the mansion’s samurai, Talan, and her brother Talong, along with twenty-five Demon Sect Layer powerhouses.
Therefore, in the martial path forces dispatched by Lanling this time, there were as many as twelve Demon Venerable layer powerhouses.
Nine Death Warriors, plus Hei Zhou, Talan, and Talong.
...
When Lanling’s Death Warrior Group was six hundred li from the Misfortune Cave Abode, it was spotted by the flying scout of the Misfortune Cave Abode.
The flying scout of the Misfortune Cave Abode was scared out of their wits and didn’t dare to take a closer look, choosing instead to fly back to the Misfortune Cave Abode at the fastest speed to report.
This airborne scout rode a type of flying steed called Lingmiao, which was extremely fast, seven-tenths faster than a ghost ray.
However, it has a fatal flaw, which is its fragility—it has no combat skills and would be wrecked with a single arrow. Most importantly, its range is very short, unable to fly more than one thousand li in one go, or it could be fatal. After a flight, it needs at least five days of rest.
Moreover, this Lingmiao could only bear very low loads, less than a hundred pounds. Therefore, it could only carry individuals from very small tribes, such as those from the Green Yi Shou Clan.
So, although the Lingmiao steed is extremely fast, with a theoretical flight speed exceeding one thousand four hundred li per hour, it can only be used as a scouting flying mount, completely unsuitable for combat.
Only half an hour later, the flying scout landed in the Misfortune Cave Abode.
The scout from the Green Yi Shou Clan, small and monkey-like, dashed into the abode and knelt, saying, "Master of the Cave, Master of the Cave, Lanling is coming, Lanling is coming..."
At this time, the Misfortune Cave Abode was holding a grand banquet to entertain the martial support group brought by Prince You Ming.
The entire main hall of the abode was filled with hundreds of people, surrounded by glittering lights, wine, and delicacies flowing as if in streams.
Prince You Ming, overwhelmed with affairs, brought over a thousand top martial artists to the Misfortune Cave Abode and, after receiving the highest hospitality, returned to Rakshasa City, as the defense of the entire Rakshasa City rested completely on him and Elder Mokan, with the Crown Prince now thoroughly under house arrest.
Hearing the scout’s report, the Master of Misfortune Cave couldn’t help but feel their heart skip a beat, their body stiffening.
Because Lanling came too quickly.
It had been less than a day since he sent an envoy to Flame Demon City.
This meant that after meeting the envoy, Lanling came straight here, without hesitation or summoning any support.
What did this mean? It meant Lanling was extremely angry and had immense confidence. This realization made the Master of Misfortune Cave very afraid, even though he had met Lanling before and their interaction had been relatively pleasant, as he witnessed the Heavenly Demon blood oath and supported Lanling in replacing the Black Demon Monarch as the ruler of this million-plus square kilometer region.
However, after the battle with the Demon Lord, the Master of Misfortune Cave’s impression of Lanling became vague.
In his memory, Lanling was a crazed opportunist, yet an extraordinarily handsome, powerfully magnetic man, who had created terrifying miracles.
But that was all; after all, his martial ability was, at most, just an Intermediate Demon Sect Master, vastly inferior to the Master of Misfortune Cave.
Yet, he surprisingly annihilated the Heaven Demon Banner, instantly rendering his image enigmatic.
Following that, the Master of Misfortune Cave thought Lanling had no idea that Prince Youming had brought over a thousand top martial artists to provide support. He assumed the Misfortune Cave Abode was solely relying on its own strength, possibly even divided. Moreover, Lanling had gained the martial forces of the Princess’s house, and thus came with great fanfare.
As for the top martial artists of the Demon Sky Clan becoming Lanling’s puppet force, the Master of Misfortune Cave could never have imagined. Because Prince Youming repeatedly confirmed that all the top martial artists of the Demon Sky Clan and the Heaven Demon Banner were dead, all killed by the Skeleton Legion, with thousands of bodies neatly lying on the ground, witnessed clearly by the ghostly-eyed observers of the Rakshasa King.
