Supreme Alchemist
Chapter 2209 - 2209 2199 Zombie

2209: Chapter 2199: Zombie 2209: Chapter 2199: Zombie This sudden turn of events shocked all the Demon Soldiers watching the battlefield, including Jingzhe and the Dog Head Military Adviser, as Qingxuan spewed out fresh blood before being flung back.

Long Yan did not pursue; such an opponent did not warrant his action.

Watching from atop the walls of Chu Official City, Bai Mu never imagined that Long Yan could defeat Qingxuan to such an extent with merely his physical strength.

“This…”

For a while, the Dog Head Military Adviser didn’t know how best to flatter Jingzhe.

Words stuck in his throat, he didn’t know how to voice them.

Jingzhe’s face, originally beaming with laughter, now turned crimson with effort, devoid of any smugness.

As Qingxuan tumbled from the sky, Demon Soldiers, unable to dodge in time, were even toppled to the ground by the wind from his fall, struggling briefly before dying.

Qingxuan lay struggling on the ground, but the immense power had left his legs numb, rendering him unable to stand.

Long Yan looked around and, although his voice was not loud, it struck a chord in the hearts of every Demon Soldier.

“Who else dares to come forward and seek death?”

After hearing Long Yan’s words, all the Demon Soldiers on the opposite side shrank back a little, intimidated by Long Yan’s might.

Qingxuan, still indignant, shakily stood up using the Steel Fork in his hands.

Though his legs still trembled, he was willing to step forward and fight Long Yan again.

The moment he attempted to sprint, he was stopped by the numerous Demon Soldiers and brought back to Jingzhe.

Today, Jingzhe was enraged to the brink of death, how could this human Strong One appear so suddenly and be so domineering, that even before everyone could react, they were beaten back by Long Yan?

This was a humiliating first for Jingzhe.

“Sir, that opponent is too tough, I…”

Before Qingxuan could finish speaking, his head flew into the air; Jingzhe wiped his Long Knife, signaling that loss removed all reason to exist.

Long Yan watched this scene, concluding that Jingzhe was indeed a tyrant who didn’t even care about the honors Qingxuan had won for him, and directly eradicated him.

The soldiers beside Jingzhe were terrified, quickly prostrating on the ground.

The air was even tainted with the smell of urine; it turned out the Dog Head Military Adviser had soiled himself in fright at the scene.

Long Yan ignored the affairs of their camp.

His hand condensed another dark orb, and he threw the Black Flame Prison into the midst of the Demon Soldiers.

Instantly, those soldiers were reduced to a cloud of ashes.

With Xing Rou’s ambush, the retreat of the Demon Soldiers became inevitable.

Blood formed a small stream, countless corpses laying upon the ground, mostly Demon Soldiers, but several were from the Chu Official City defense army as well.

War is brutal—this sentiment is shared not just by the people of Chu Official City, but also by those from Gigantic King City.

As the battle drew to a close, each side collected their dead before sounding the retreat.

Xing Rou evidently grew accustomed to such a life.

As she took off her Armor, her body bore various scars.

Although the Demon Race’s recovery ability was terrifying, when there were many injuries, the healing became slow.

“Tomorrow should be the final day; after tomorrow, this war will be over.”

Bai Mu smiled at Long Yan and said, it had always been so, the battle would never last more than three days.

If the enemy failed to conquer Chu Official City after three days, they would not be allowed to attack the city for the rest of the year, a rule set by the Demon King.

“Is that so?

I feel that might not be the case.”

Long Yan sipped the tea on the table before speaking.

It must be said, even though there was a scarcity of foods here, the tea in this world carried a hint of fragrance.

Long Yan greatly enjoyed the flavor of this tea.

“Brother Long, what do you mean by this?”

Bai Mu actually had a vague premonition in his heart, but this was still the first time that the issue had been openly discussed.

In fact, seeing the number of Demon Soldiers had already revealed a serious problem; the usual numbers were at least half less than expected, and yet now Chu Official City was facing a siege by a great army.

Long Yan did not pick up Bai Mu’s conversational thread, but simply looked at him with a smile.

He did not believe Bai Mu could still be unclear about what he meant.

“Sigh, alright, Brother Long, I understand now.”

Off to the side, Xing Rou didn’t understand what either of them was talking about; she just kept her head down, eating her meal.

These matters, she couldn’t comprehend; her only job was to fight on the battlefield.

Bai Mu sighed; Jingzhe was not someone content with being subordinate, especially now that the situation within the world was already quite clear.

“Are you willing to bring people with me to seize territory?”

Long Yan’s eyes looked at Bai Mu as he asked such a question.

After all, Bai Mu was one of the key figures who had helped Long Yan escape from the Demon Suppressing Tower; this little favor was certainly within Long Yan’s capability to assist with.

“Seize territory?”

After hearing Long Yan’s words, Bai Mu felt somewhat stunned.

Did Long Yan mean for him to lead these Demon people to seize a plot of resource-rich land?

Bai Mu’s face showed an expression of wild joy.

They had always lacked a powerful combatant to assist them, and if Long Yan was willing, they would, of course, be extremely delighted.

“After this battle, you provide some people, and I’ll take you to clean up Demon Mountain.”

Long Yan’s tone was somewhat indifferent as he spoke.

The cultivation bases of those within Demon Mountain were mostly around that of a Half-Step Divine Emperor; for Bai Mu and his group, it would certainly be much more difficult to handle, but for Long Yan, a Half-step Divine King was simply not enough of a threat currently.

“Good.”

Bai Mu, grateful, took Long Yan’s hand.

The support from Long Yan’s clan could be said to solve a major problem regarding their livelihood; although it seemed like a trivial matter in Long Yan’s eyes, for the Demon Race, a broader living space also meant that they would no longer have to resolve the population issue through war.

The second day was also theoretically the last day of the war; Jingzhe somehow had managed to rally all the Demon Soldiers.

Those Demon Soldiers who had been demoralized overnight were now brimming with high spirits.

Long Yan was simply quietly floating in the air.

Seeing the figure of Long Yan appear, the originally mighty Demon Army retreated a little, after all, Long Yan had taken the lives of a great many Demon Soldiers within a few moves just the day before.

Unexpectedly, Jingzhe spurred his scorpion mount and moved to the front of all the Demon Soldiers.

“Don’t be afraid of them, my children, this time it’s different.”

The corners of Jingzhe’s mouth curved into a slight smile.

Originally, they hadn’t planned to cooperate with such beings, but after Long Yan’s performance yesterday, Jingzhe felt a bit threatened, so he chose to conspire with these beings to take down Chu Official City.

The ground below cracked open, the surrounding temperature began to drop repeatedly, and pairs of gray hands stretched out from inside the ground, one after another, disheveled zombies with gaping mouths climbed out from the earth.

“Jingzhe, how dare you collude with zombies to attack our Chu Official City.”

Bai Mu, standing atop the city wall, was furious.

Jingzhe actually dared to collaborate with zombies; truly reckless.
