"Damn it, has this group gone mad?"

The Four Heavenly Kings’ Army was pursuing Wang Lingguan, only to find that he seemed crazy, rushing towards the group of demons without the slightest hesitation, not even discussing it with his old comrades, choosing such a desperate path that almost made these old fellows furious enough to perish on the spot.

Once they caught on, they followed immediately, but for some reason, when they caught up, those demons became extremely difficult to deal with, maddened and somewhat coordinated, making it very tough to break through.

After barely breaking out and counting their numbers, they found they were less than half of what they were before!

Several deputy generals disappeared inside, making their faces turn pale with rage, swearing that if they found that guy Wang Lingguan, they would crush his bones and scatter his ashes, suppress his spiritual body, never allowing him to reincarnate!

To say they were angry was true. Originally, according to the Four Heavenly Kings’ plan, if a few old comrades worked together, there wouldn’t even be a conflict. Everyone would reasonably allocate those resources, right?

At such times, sticking together for warmth is the real deal. After all, the Mortal Realm is so dangerous now that more strength is needed to protect those resources. They aren’t foolish; at this time, wanting to swallow all the benefits for oneself, no one has the strength for that.....

But unexpectedly, that dog was so greedy, that he did it so decisively, causing them to suffer so tragically, with the direct lineage troops again suffering heavy casualties, and resources lacking, it truly was a Life and Death feud, irreconcilable!

"Boss..." The other Heavenly Kings looked at Dhrtarastra and asked, "What do we do? Where do we go?"

Upon reaching the Mortal Realm, they could only use the Meteor Technique. Although they can’t completely determine the location, with their Divine Power, controlling the approximate area where they land is not too problematic.

"Go to Yundu!" Dhrtarastra said without hesitation.

"Old Liu?" The others couldn’t help but be shocked.

"Compared to those Western ones who eat you alive and spit out the bones, Old Liu is at least of the same lineage as us, all Huaxia descendants. And to refine power, he just suffered a big loss in Vital Energy, with us joining, at least it’s not a bad thing."

"But... can we compete with those Buddhas? We are outsiders...."

"First, survive, then discuss other things. Now trying to gain benefits? Even if he uses us as cannon fodder, at least temporary safety can be guaranteed, and we can act according to circumstances in the future."

"That’s fine..."

"Should we consider Jiangnan?" At this moment, inside the Four Heavenly Kings, a surviving deputy general cautiously asked.

This topic immediately brought silence all around.

"Chen Qing?" Dhrtarastra frowned.

"Lord Dhrtarastra..." The deputy general quickly said, "Chen Qing can accommodate demons and natives, there’s no reason he can’t accommodate his own people."

"His own people?" Zeng Zhangtian sneered, "The Heavenly Emperor has fallen, the Great Formation at Heaven’s Court was sabotaged, most likely by his machinations!"

"It’s just different stances, we’ve reached this point, winners are kings and losers are outlaws, he won’t target us."

"If he can!" Zeng Zhangtian angrily said, "A native force, even relying on some schemes and taking advantage of the situation to break Heaven’s Court, he is inherently weak; once ancient powers recover their strength, even if only half, what can he fight with?"

Upon hearing this, Dhrtarastra nodded, "Clever strategies can’t reign for a lifetime.

Elder Long was careless, but not everyone can afford Chen Qing such an opportunity.

Moreover, precisely because of his actions this time, he will inevitably become a thorn in the side of the other three major forces. It’s not worth joining him."

Hearing this, the deputy general said no more. In fact, deep down he felt that Jiangnan, being Zhao Yang’s force, dared to strategize the downfall of Heaven’s Court with such meager roots. With such courage alone, it’s not comparable to Elder Long or those old folks from the West.

But unfortunately, he’s not the commander, can’t make decisions, and Old Liu is actually alright too. Compared to Elder Long, who is not good at military affairs, Old Liu was at least the War God of the Central Federation!

In terms of military capability, he’s not inferior to Chen Qing, in terms of shrewdness, not inferior to Elder Long, he’s also a good choice, except they have their own direct lineage, and we eventually are just outsiders, the future path is feared to be difficult.

"Where do you think that guy will go?"

Looking at the traces of the group that had long turned into meteors and fled, Zeng Zhangtian’s face was somber, "If he also joined Old Liu, we..."

"He won’t..." Dhrtarastra shook his head, "He won’t join any faction...."

-------------------------------------------

"Sir, isn’t this a bit too extreme for us?"

Wang Lingguan’s deputy general still couldn’t understand until now.

The Heavenly King’s Army, although they performed poorly, they were after all from the same branch. Yet Wang Lingguan, upon seeing them, acted as if he’d seen a ghost, running away without discussing at all.

And the way he escaped was extremely resolute, directly fleeing to the center of the Great Demon encirclement, even startling those Great Demons!

"If we don’t do it decisively, we won’t be able to leave!

" Wang Lingguan sighed and shook his head, "I’ve known them for so many years, don’t I know what kind of people they are?

To keep Elder Long’s resources, we can’t leave them any chances.

If they keep me, they’ll never let go. Even under the guise of separate management, they’ll forcibly demand the resources.

If I don’t comply, the four of them will definitely take action against me.

Don’t think because we’re from the same branch they’ll leave a line, those guys, all sense of loyalty has long since disappeared, haven’t they eaten enough of their fellow kin over the years? "

"They’re already a bunch of demons in human skin, lacking loyalty and competence, but in terms of savagery..... probably even more terrifying than the most venomous demons."

The deputy officer didn’t speak upon hearing this, tacitly agreeing with the boss’s statement.

"Boss, we used some resources to pave the way when we charged through, won’t they also quickly catch up?"

"They won’t!" Wang Lingguan heard this and laughed, "We charged so decisively that those demons couldn’t react at all. Most demons here are clan-based, and they don’t trust each other enough.

Faced with a powerful breakthrough like ours, they definitely can’t stop the siege immediately.

When I used resources to pave the way, those demons would first fall into chaos, even start conflicting over disputes, so our breakthrough was so easy. "

"But it’s different for those chasing us. These demons aren’t stupid, after experiencing the first chaos, they won’t fall for it a second time. When the Heavenly King’s Army comes again, they’ll certainly be blocked vindictively, suffering heavy losses without a doubt!"

"Boss, you are wise..." The deputy general was amazed, never realizing before how clever the boss was?

Usually, he seemed... rather dull.

Wang Lingguan’s eyes were somewhat complicated at the moment, thinking back to the time when he, too, was from the military, having participated in battles against Red Sun.

Though his military merits weren’t as dazzling as Old Liu’s, he was still a distinguished general, and after being drawn by Elder Long, he’s now become a security role.

This world is supposed to be a huge stage, ideally suited for his talents to shine...

But after so many years, he had forgotten... that he was once a general.

"Boss, where do we go?"

"To the Northern Wasteland!"

"Ah?"
