Chapter 104: Flame Lion Demon An Luoxian
Flame Lion Demon An Luoxian looked at the man who had completely fainted in his hand.
He threw him in front of the Green Demon Rider Xier.
At this time, Green Demon Rider Xier looked at the eighth-level assassin who was still breathing in front of him.
There was a trace of greed in his eyes.
As a seventy-pillar demon god, his strength was only at the peak of the eighth level, but many eighth-level assassins had appeared one after another in recent days. After devouring the spiritual power of these assassins, his strength had improved a lot.
There were already signs of a breakthrough.
Suddenly, a green insect crawled out from under his feet and moved toward the unconscious man.
Not long after, the man's body decayed and disintegrated at a speed visible to the naked eye.
Finally, it turned into a whole green wind and dissipated between heaven and earth.
"Hahaha, Xier, you've eaten so many of them, and still no breakthrough? Too useless! Better give them to me, old bull!" sneered the Winged Bull Mad Demon Sai Gong.
Facing Sai Gong's ridicule, Green Demon Rider Xier didn't get angry. He replied in a somewhat enchanting tone, "Stupid bull, do you think breaking through to the ninth level is easy? If it were so simple, why haven't you broken through yet?"
Under Xier's mocking words, Sai Gong's mood clearly soured. He shouted angrily, "Xier, do you want to fight?!"
Suddenly, a terrifying aura burst out from Sai Gong's body, and the terrifying pressure even caused the ground to sink.
Xier naturally didn't back down. Although their rankings were different, they were both at the peak of the eighth level.
There wasn't much difference between them.
"Enough. Do you think the king doesn't exist?"
A fiery shock wave erupted from Flame Lion Demon An Luoxian's body.
The two who had been on the verge of fighting instantly quieted down.
"An Luoxian, it's not that I don't believe you," Sai Gong grumbled, "but so many humans have died already. Is that military chief of the Exorcist Pass really going to come?"
"Are they idiots?"
"In my opinion, the three of us should just attack the Exorcist Pass head-on. If we strike together, how could they possibly withstand us?"
"I was hoping to go back to my wife early. I'm bored sitting here all day."
"And I heard that the Love Demon God Sidi has already been promoted to the tenth pillar. Who would've thought a human-demon hybrid could boost her strength so much?"
Facing Sai Gong's complaints, Flame Lion Demon An Luoxian said in a low voice:
"Humans are emotional creatures. As long as they know their companions are imprisoned, they will send people to investigate. Judging by the timing, the bait should have been delivered."
"What you need to do is gather the demon army and strike into the Exorcist Pass. Break them from within!"
Xier spoke slowly: "It's a pity we had to send a light-elemental elf."
This attack wasn't just about sending demons to their deaths.
It was part of An Luoxian's plan.
They had spread the news that the Assassin Temple's Reconnaissance Group was trapped and left behind a light-elemental elf marked with a Demon God's imprint outside the Exorcist Pass. As long as the humans dared to merge with it, the mark would activate—and through it, they could open a portal into the Exorcist Pass.
To ensure this mission's success, Flame Lion Demon An Luoxian had leaked the capture of the Assassin Temple's Reconnaissance Group. This would definitely lure a strong human expert to try and rescue them.
According to their intel, only two ninth-level powerhouses remained in the Assassin Temple. If they could lure one out and kill him, then teleport through space, the Exorcist Barrier would collapse!
As the viewpoint zoomed out…
The mountain beneath the three demon gods had become a sea of fire.
Even the hard stones had melted into magma.
Above them, dozens of assassins in Assassin Temple uniforms were suspended in the air, imprisoned by fiery-red energy circles. Most had already lost their breath; only a few were still alive, but clearly, they didn't have long.

At the same time,
In the command center,
Cai'er's father, Sheng Lingxin, was holding a bloodstained cloth with coordinates written on it.
He knew it was a trap—but he had no choice but to go.
At this moment, Shengyue stood beside him.
"This is a trap. You know that," said Shengyue, his hair entirely white.
"I understand. But I still have to go."
"Even No. 1 met with an accident. The opponent this time won't be simple. I'd better go."
Sheng Lingxin shook his head. "The city needs a ninth-level powerhouse to guard it. And even if I go, I'm confident I can escape back to the Exorcist Pass."
Shengyue nodded and said nothing more.

At the same time,
On the commercial street,
After Lin Ze came out of Yue Ye's room, he originally planned to practice.
However, Leng Xiao—awakened by the alarm—insisted on dragging Lin Ze out. With no choice, Lin Ze went with her for a walk.
As for Yue Ye, she was handling business matters with Xiao Yun.
Surprisingly, the nighttime commercial street of the Exorcist Pass was lively and bright.
Despite the war outside, the commercial street remained peaceful.
There were still many people out having fun.
This place probably existed to relieve the pressure on soldiers.
After all, if someone stayed tense for too long, even iron would break.
Without Yue Ye and Xiao Yun around, the energetic and cheerful Leng Xiao completely reverted to her lively self.
Looking at all the delicious food stalls, she was even more eager than Lin Ze.
"It smells so good!"
Holding Lin Ze's hand, Leng Xiao swallowed her saliva when she caught a mouthwatering scent.
"Lin Ze, let's eat that!"
She traced the aroma to a barbecue restaurant with open seating.
Lin Ze didn't object. He liked food too.
Seeing him nod, Leng Xiao pulled him inside.
What left both of them a little helpless was that there were no empty seats anywhere.
The whole place was packed.
At that moment, a smiling clerk approached and asked, "You two—would you be okay with sharing a table?"
Lin Ze looked at Leng Xiao, who was practically drooling, and nodded.
"Alright. Please wait a moment. I'll go ask," the clerk said enthusiastically and walked toward a long table that could seat ten.
Currently, six people were already sitting at that table.
And those six were none other than the members of Cai'er's No. 1 Demon Hunting Group.
Cai'er herself was among them.
