Chapter 392 Your human race's federal high command is truly despicable.

After the Nine-Headed Demon Saint finished speaking.

He abruptly turned around and walked back into the snake pit without looking back.

The snakes inside the cave gathered again, completely blocking the entrance.

Half an incense stick later.

The venomous snakes in the snake pit dispersed again.

A man came out from inside.

The man was dressed in a long, dark robe, with an extremely effeminate appearance and skin as white as paper.

But the aura emanating from him was extremely terrifying.

Without any deliberate display, even the surrounding space seemed slightly distorted.

He was none other than a top-tier expert at the level of a nine-star Martial Emperor.

He is also the only son of the Nine-Headed Demon Saint.

Ziying.

Ziying walked straight up to the Demon Saint Shangyang, bowed slightly, and spoke in a high-pitched voice.

"I have met the Demon Saint Shang Yang."

The Demon Saint Shang Yang looked at him and nodded in satisfaction.

"Ziying, you are the son of the Demon Saint, so it is best for you to cleanse the sect."

Ziying didn't speak, but listened quietly.

"The Demon Saint Shangyang continued."

"That traitor from the snake clan should be in the Ten Thousand Mile Mountain right now."

"Because the secrets of heaven are obscured, I cannot calculate her exact location. You will have to find her yourself."

"After finding it."

"Bring her head back to me."

Ziying raised her head, her effeminate face showing no emotion whatsoever.

"Um."

He simply responded with a faint "yes".

Then, Ziying turned around, and his body transformed into a black streak of light that shot out.

……

Now let's turn our attention back to the human race.

federal.

Several days had passed since Lu Chuan returned to Nancheng.

These past few days.

The situation in the entire southwest region suddenly underwent a dramatic change.

Originally, with the demon army pressing in, and the Heavenly Wolf Demon Lord personally issuing orders, dozens of cities in Jiangnan Province and Caiye Province were on the verge of complete collapse.

The warriors in the city suffered heavy casualties, and the defense line collapsed completely.

At this critical moment, eight mysterious black-clad martial emperors suddenly appeared on the battlefield.

These eight people are ridiculously strong.

The methods were extremely cruel.

They appeared.

They charged straight into the demon army and wreaked havoc.

Those high and mighty demon kings and demon emperors couldn't even last a few moves against them.

There were even one or two demon warrior emperors.

He was killed on the spot, and even his demon core was crushed.

The demon army was routed, suffering countless casualties.

The Heavenly Wolf Demon Lord was furious, but he knew that things were beyond saving, so he could only order a temporary retreat.

The situation in the southwest.

It miraculously stabilized.

Even though the human warriors left behind in the southwest knew that the demon race would not let this go and that things would only get more brutal, the situation remained unchanged.

But everyone still breathed a sigh of relief.

Martial artists from various cities are inquiring everywhere about who these eight suddenly appearing Martial Emperors are.

But these eight people seemed to appear out of thin air.

After the fight, they vanished into thin air without leaving any clues.

Soon, with the emergency repairs of infrastructure in major cities, the network in the southwest region was restored.

News that the southwest has been held.

The news spread instantly throughout the entire southwest region, and even the entire human race.

The Federation was completely shaken.

"What?"

"Has the southwest been defended?"

Netizens were stunned when they saw the news.

They originally thought that, faced with the all-out attack of the demon race, the southwest region would fall completely within half a month at most.

They actually held on?

It's incredible.

"Furthermore, eight incredibly powerful and mysterious Martial Emperors have appeared."

"Who are they?"

"Amazing! These eight predecessors are truly the saviors of our human race!"

Just when everyone was excited and happy for the Southwest.

The federal leadership made a jaw-dropping response.

Instead of rewarding the eight Martial Emperors who saved people from dire straits, they immediately sent people down to investigate their identities.

Furthermore, the federal leadership sent a telegram to the entire federation, issuing an extremely strong order.

"Anyone above the Martial Emperor level is strictly prohibited from going to the southwest to provide support."

"We demand that the eight mysterious martial emperors immediately return to their places of origin."

"If this is done immediately, their responsibility for participating in the war without authorization can be waived."

"Otherwise, once their identities are discovered, they will be severely punished."

The moment this telegram was sent out, all the warriors in the Federation were enraged.

Everyone understood that the higher-ups were acting for the greater good, fearing that the actions of these eight Martial Emperors would thoroughly enrage the Demon Lord or even the Demon Saint, thereby triggering a full-scale war between the entire human race and the demon race.

But this is a power transmission.

That's absolutely shameless.

They were risking their lives to save people.

You stabbed me in the back, and you want to be severely punished???

online.

In an instant, a chorus of curses erupted.

"Are all the federal high command officials a bunch of spineless cowards?"

"They went to save tens of millions of people in the southwest, and you still want to punish them?"

"If you're so capable, go fight the demons in the mountains, what are you doing hiding in the capital and spouting nonsense?"

"These spineless cowards who are afraid of death, I must have been blind to believe them."

However, how can an ordinary person's arm twist a thigh?

The federal government maintains extremely strict control over public opinion.

Any post criticizing high-ranking officials that appears online will be forcibly deleted within minutes.

There were even some accounts that used very harsh language.

They were permanently banned.

Even so, it couldn't quell the anger in the hearts of the people.

The incident continues to escalate.

……

southwest.

Jiangnan Province.

South City.

Everyone knows that the demon race has only temporarily retreated, and there will definitely be even more brutal battles to come.

Therefore, the southern city was successfully defended.

But no one thought about rebuilding the infrastructure and restoring the city.

After all, those who stayed behind were all martial artists, and they wouldn't do these kinds of work.

Everyone is making the most of their time to cultivate.

Preparing for war.

Prepare for the next battle.

Therefore, the streets of the southern city remained desolate, with broken bricks and tiles everywhere, a scene of ruins.

Inner city.

Inside the villa.

"Bang."

The villa gate was pushed open forcefully.

Hu Mei pulled a small cart as she walked in from outside.

The cart was filled with all kinds of meat and vegetables.

These are the living resources she just received from the South City Martial Arts Association for the next few days.

As soon as she entered the door, Hu Mei started shouting and yelling.

"Master, Master."

"Did you know?"

"The southwest has been defended; the demon race has been temporarily driven back."

"I heard that eight powerful black-clad Martial Emperors have appeared on the human side. Wow, they've slaughtered the demon race so badly they're running for their lives."

This level of excitement...

Anyone who didn't know better would think she was human.

boom!boom!

The door to the second-floor room opened.

Su Ling'er and Shangguan Yue walked out of the room together.

Both of them were pleasantly surprised to hear Hu Mei's words.

"Did they really hold on?"

"Eight Martial Emperors have also appeared, is that true?"

Nancheng was, after all, a post-war city, where the internet was difficult to restore and the signal was intermittent, so they were unaware of what was happening outside.

Hu Mei nodded vigorously.

But then she just pursed her lips.

"But you federal officials are really despicable."

"They issued a notice demanding that the eight Martial Emperors return immediately, or they would be severely punished."

"I hear it's all negative comments online right now."
