Chapter 494: Five Element Annihilation
Tianyi’s eyes, which had remained dull for years, finally brightened. He scanned the hordes of demons staring warily and hatefully at him. ‘They’re about to attack the headquarters of the Demon Clan. It’s time for me to increase the pressure.’
He first sent a message to the field commander of the front lines to prepare themselves. Since the Immortal Court took command of the assault on the Demon Clan’s Void Continent, they ceded leadership of this battlefront to the Numinous Sword Sect.
The field commander’s title was Snowsword. Ironically as a sword immortal, her greatest strength wasn’t offense, but defense and long-ranged attacks. Not just singular targeting, but anything within her range.
“Let me adjust the positions before you start your offense,” Sword Empress Snowsword said, using her immortal sense.
Tianyi’s lips twitched when he sensed the immortals distancing themselves from him. The ones closest to him were from Immortal Court, while the ones farthest were those from the Numinous Sword Sect. Although both sides were human, Tianyi still felt the meaning behind the proverb, “not of my race, not one of heart.”
Granted, he understood the reasoning. Once he started attacking with all his might, the demons would definitely hard focus on him. Anyone around him would be dragged down and affected because of him. Still, Tianyi felt dejected that no one stayed behind to protect him. Even if it was only for show.
Sword Empress Snowsword obviously wanted the Immortal Court to block the majority of the demon’s wrath. Even if this was a racial war between humans and demons, they were not wholly united. Tianyi still understood. Unless the Demon Clan pulled some bullcrap out of their ass and pressured the Immortal Court and Numinous Sword Sect, these small calculations would continue.
Well, not that he stood on the moral high ground compared to the Numinous Sword Sect after what Ba Shifang and Donghai Longzi did.
“Everything’s ready.”
