At the very moment the Three Great Demon Kings and their forces rushed back to the Guyao Realm, countless eyes across the entire Xuanhuang Star Domain turned towards it.
"Immediately activate our hidden eyes within the Guyao Realm! Send back the latest news from this battle with the utmost speed!"
"Pass down the order! Send people to closely monitor this matter and report back promptly!"
…
Even the higher-ups of several ancient sects and clans within the Sacred Domain issued orders one after another, dispatching elite scouts to pay immediate attention to the situation.
Currently, within the slave living quarters of the Northern District in the Guyao Realm.
"Everyone! Fantastic news! My master has come to rescue everyone from the Guyao Realm. Quickly gather your belongings and leave with my master!"
Hu Miao's graceful figure flitted, arriving above rows of crude stone huts as she began shouting.
Immediately after, Huang Shang, Elder Feng, Tang Biao, and Tang Wu also rushed into the slave living area, shouting everywhere.
The five of them were all masters at the Yuan Soul Realm, their voices amplified by energy turning into rolling soundwaves that traveled far, clearly reaching the ears of the slaves.
Thus, in this entire region, all the slaves simultaneously stopped their actions, revealing incredulous gazes.
These slaves had been captured and brought here by the Ancient Demon Race, almost treated like livestock, penned up in this freezing, snowy land, enduring endless abuse and torment, surviving with immense hardship.
Deep within their hearts, though there was a desperate hope—a wish that one day they could escape this hellish place—they also knew all too well that with their strength, it was simply impossible to escape the Guyao Realm.
Moreover, many human slaves had already given birth to descendants in this area, reproducing generation after generation. They had begun to accept this fate of generational servitude!
They never imagined such an event would occur today.
"Is it real or fake?"
"It's been so many years, why would someone suddenly come to rescue us?"
Some gray-haired, elderly slaves, leaning on canes and trembling unsteadily, emerged from stone huts, looking up at the sky.
After being captured, these old slaves had served the Ancient Demon Race like beasts of burden, toiling for many years. Now that they were aged and weak, they could only wait for death.
However, most of these aged slaves were martial arts experts in their day, having tempered their bodies to be far stronger than ordinary people, so their lifespans were also much longer than average.
"How dare you! Who are you?"
In this Northern District, aside from the human slaves, there were also many Ancient Demon Race forces stationed here as guards. At this moment, these Ancient Demon Race troops were also alarmed, rushing out from their camps.
"Kill them!"
Hu Miao and the other four showed no courtesy whatsoever. They charged forward, killing any demon they saw!
Especially Huang Shang. As he devoured more and more Soul Bodies, his Ghost Art became increasingly formidable. With a light wave of his hand, he could imprison and swallow an entire group of Ancient Demon Race soldiers' Soul Bodies in one gulp.
In mere moments, all the Ancient Demon Race forces stationed in this Northern District were slaughtered!
"Well killed!"
"Could it be... they truly came to rescue us from the Guyao Realm?"
This scene filled each human slave with anticipation.
For so many years, these stationed Ancient Demon Race troops in the Northern District would curse, beat, scold, or directly kill the human slaves at the slightest dissatisfaction, even taking pleasure in torturing them!
Now, unexpectedly, they were all wiped out in mere moments!
Just at that moment.
"Elder Tang Boguang!"
"Is that really you, Elder?"
Suddenly, Tang Wu and Tang Biao both fixed their gazes on an elderly man with gray hair.
That old man leaned on a black cane, dressed in simple animal skins, leaning against the wooden door of a stone hut, looking up into the high sky with difficulty.
"Elder Tang Boguang..."
Hearing this address, the old man trembled all over. Instantly, his muddled eyes erupted with astonishing brilliance as he looked at Tang Wu and Tang Biao.
*Whoosh! Whoosh!*
Tang Wu and Tang Biao rapidly descended from the high sky, landing together in front of the old man.
"Elder Tang Boguang, it must be you! Elder Tang Wu has shown us your portrait several times." "Before coming to the Guyao Realm, Elder Tang Wu repeatedly instructed the two of us to watch carefully and try to find you, Elder!" "Who would have thought Heaven has eyes, finally letting us find you!"
Tang Wu and Tang Biao spoke together, half-kneeling before the elder.
"Elder Tang Wu... Old Wu?" "You were sent by Old Wu to rescue me?" "Does this mean our Tang Clan has risen again, grown powerful once more, so they sent people to fight their way into the Guyao Realm to save us!"
Elder Tang Boguang immediately became agitated.
"Elder, this time it was Young Master Ye who brought the two of us to rescue you!" "The situation is complex now, and time is critical. It's not the moment for lengthy explanations. After we leave the Guyao Realm, we will report everything to you in detail, Elder!"
Tang Wu said.
"Young Master Ye?" "Brought the two of you?"
Tang Boguang couldn't help but stare blankly, feeling utterly bewildered.
"Just the few of you?" "Want to rescue me?" "That's absolutely impossible!" "Even if you killed these Demon Race troops guarding us, so what? Can you defeat the Three Great Demon Kings?" "You two are far too reckless!" "What is Old Wu thinking, sending you two to your deaths? Utter nonsense!"
Furious, Tang Boguang repeatedly struck the ground with his cane, cursing.
"Elder, you are unaware. Young Master Ye's strength is astonishing. So far, he has already killed over ten Soul Formation Realm experts. He has the ability to rescue you!"
Tang Wu said urgently.
"What?" "Are you talking about him?" "He's only at the early Yuan Soul Realm. He killed over ten Soul Formation Realm experts?"
Tang Boguang's gaze shifted to Ye Yunfei in the distant sky, unable to believe it.
"What's going on?" "Tang Wu, Tang Biao, hurry up! The Ancient Demon Race forces will be here soon!"
Ye Yunfei, sensing through his Soul Power that Tang Wu, Tang Biao, and Tang Boguang were actually chatting, couldn't help but urge them.
"Elder, there's little time left. Please trust us, come with us immediately!"
Tang Wu and Tang Biao both bowed low, their heads touching the ground.
"Alright!" "I believe you. Let this be a final gamble for my fate!"
Elder Tang Boguang finally nodded heavily.
"Everyone listen! They are our saviors, come to rescue us from the Guyao Realm!" "Everyone follow orders!"
Then, Tang Boguang began shouting.
Tang Wu and Tang Biao helped Tang Boguang soar into the air.
"It's Elder Tang!" "Elder Tang's words are trustworthy. It seems someone really has come to rescue us!"
It was evident that Elder Tang Boguang held extremely high prestige within this slave region. The moment he spoke, the other slaves responded one after another, roaring excitedly.
Subsequently, all the slaves began quickly gathering their belongings.
"Little bastard Ye Yunfei, come and meet your death!"
Just at that moment, an angry roar erupted, transforming into a vast soundwave that came rolling forward.
*Rumble…*
One Demon Race airship after another appeared densely packed, cutting through the empty air.
The Ancient Demon Race's main force had arrived!
"I've been waiting for you."
High in the sky, Ye Yunfei stood with his hands behind his back, alone facing hundreds of oncoming ships, and said coldly.
"Speed up!" "Old Huang, immediately teleport those people into the Mirage Tower!"
Ye Yunfei said to Huang Shang. Ye Yunfei had already entrusted the Mirage Tower to Huang Shang's care. Huang Shang's Ghost Art grew ever more potent, and his ability to conceal his traces was incredibly strong.
"Understood!"
Huang Shang began accelerating, swiftly teleporting the slaves into the Mirage Tower.
With Elder Tang Boguang personally overseeing matters, all the human slaves cooperated fully, obediently following orders.
Moreover, among these human slaves, many were martial artists in their day, possessing certain insight and discernment. They could tell these people truly were reinforcements.
They understood that perhaps the moment to change their fate had finally arrived. How could they not cooperate?
Just then, the hundreds of Ancient Demon Race airships finally arrived!
"So you are Ye Yunfei!"
From the lead airship, an elderly member of the Ancient Demon Race emerged, his body somewhat stooped. His two eyes were like icy heavenly blades, locking onto Ye Yunfei.
It was precisely Advisor Tiangu!
"Ye Yunfei, we meet again!" "Today is your death!"
From another airship, a grizzled Ancient Demon Race elder radiating bloody light charged out. It was Xue Tu.
Immediately after, wave after wave of Ancient Demon Race forces continuously surged out from the airships.
"One at the late Soul Formation Realm, eight at the mid stage. And twenty at the early stage. And this is only part of the Ancient Demon Race's Soul Formation Realm experts. No wonder the Ancient Demon Race, though only a second-rate power in the Xuanhuang Star Domain, could endure for such long years and remain standing unshaken. Such heritage is something even Heavenly Dao Academy might not compare to."
Ye Yunfei swept his gaze over the present Ancient Demon Race troops, unable to help but sigh in admiration.
"But so what!" "This time, I will definitely make the Ancient Demon Race pay a bloody price!"
Ye Yunfei's gaze turned sharp, thick with killing intent.
