Chapter 874: Inheritance is the Strongest
The old man with ram’s horns kept a vigilant watch, and nobody dared step out of the Aura Barrier to meet the challenge.
Who knows if he might spring a surprise attack at any moment?
They couldn’t even withstand a direct confrontation, let alone a sneak attack from him.
Carson Flores didn’t have much of a choice; after all, the enemy was too strong, and also extremely cautious. Trapping him was basically impossible.
After all, he already knew he possessed the Five Elements Essence, so he wouldn’t be caught off guard and fail to dodge.
Once he was prepared, given the difference in their strengths, the moment Carson made his move, the old man would have enough time to escape.
The Aura Cannons all converged their fire on the old man with ram’s horns, beginning their bombardment.
The old man was mighty, but he didn’t take the hits head-on; after all, those were city defense Aura Cannons, and their power was far from small.
Carson Flores watched the old man dodging in mid-air and called out, "You said before that for every one of your kind killed across the border, you’d slaughter three of our cities in retaliation, an eye for an eye. What’s this about? Was the order to massacre the cities given by the Demon Emperor Heir?"
The old man with ram’s horns replied coldly, "Your Human Race’s powerhouses have been pursuing the Demon Emperor Heir, from Misrds State to Central Divine Continent, and then to Easty Prefecture. Failing to catch him and out of fury, they slaughtered three thousand of our Demon Race kin, which included many of Divine Crocodile King’s descendants. Divine Crocodile King ordered me to enter Eastern Emperor Province and wipe out three cities as a warning. I have already destroyed two, and this is the third."
Carson Flores’s heart eased a bit—it was a relief that the order to massacre the cities was not issued by his father.
