Chapter 2863
byTime passed in a flash, and it was already one month.
During this one month, some changes occurred within the Wu Niu Tribe’s residence.
The most obvious change was the sharp increase in the number of people.
Previously, after three months of battle and supplementation, the three-thousand-strong team had expanded to five thousand people. After capturing this city, the number had increased by a lot more, reaching as many as seven thousand.
And now, this seven thousand had more than doubled two or three times, and the number was approaching the twenty-thousand mark.
This was an extremely terrifying number, completely beyond what a Great Wizard could control. Only those Witch Kings could command so many tribesmen.
The additional tribesmen were naturally sent over by the Demon Kings led by Philip. Under the leadership of Rain Dew and other Wizards, with their efforts in treatment, many tribesmen had regained their sanity.
The Witch Warriors didn’t know where these demonized tribesmen came from. They just followed Yang Kai’s order and accepted them outside every now and then. Among them, both Baoji and Shaya had also made a lot of contributions. If it weren’t for the two Demon Kings taking the lead, the handover work would surely not have been so smooth.
Every wizard is so busy that their feet don’t touch the ground, but all of them look delighted.
This is not the only good thing. Because among those delivered clansmen, there are actually some Wu.
Originally, there were only a dozen Wu in the Wu Niu Tribe, but after one month, this number has expanded to as many as forty or fifty. Most of them are Wu Tu and Wu Shi, and there are only a few who are at the wizard level. There is not a single great wizard in sight.
It is reasonable to think so. The great wizard himself has the protection of witchcraft and is generally unlikely to be demonized. If they really encounter the strong of the Demon Race, they will definitely be killed. How could it be possible to leave it to Yang Kai？
In addition, the magic beasts under the various great demons have also been sent one after another.
Originally, the cavalry team of the Wu Niu Tribe had only dozens of people, but now it can expand to one thousand. A full one thousand cavalry, once they charge, the momentum they can set off is definitely not to be underestimated. This will definitely play a huge role in future wars.
With the increase in the number of people, each small team naturally has to be reorganized. However, Yang Kai did not intervene in this matter and let Yu Lu take care of it. He believes that they can handle all this well.
The air cavalry goes out to reconnaissance every day, and the scope of reconnaissance is getting farther and farther.
According to the information obtained, the barbarians’ counterattack on this side has been quite effective. They have recovered a large area of lost ground. Wherever the armies of each tribe pass, they often win more and lose less, gradually suppressing the Demon Race towards the north.
The vast battle line is shrinking, and the Demon Race’s troops are gradually beginning to concentrate. The resistance and counterattacks that the Barbarian Race encounters are getting stronger and more intense. Several large tribes have already gathered all their strength to engage in major battles with the Demon Race, with wins and losses on both sides.
Anyone with a bit of foresight knows that those scattered wars will probably be rare in the days to come, and a large-scale battle between the two races is about to begin.
This is indeed the case. One day a month later, a sharp bugle suddenly sounded in the station. That was the bugle to gather all the people.
At the same time, there was a knock on the door outside Yang Kai’s, and Yu’s voice came.
Yang Kai got up and opened the door. The twins were standing outside, with solemn expressions. When she saw him appear, Yu immediately said, “Sir, the Witch Kings have gathered all the clansmen of the Southern Barbarian Tribe to gather in the Jiaohe area!
Yang Kai’s expression became solemn： “How long is the time limit？”
“Within ten days.”
“Is this going to be a decisive battle with someone？” Yang Kai frowned.
Yu said, “The message said that there are more than a dozen Demon Kings gathering there, so it is necessary to integrate the strength of all the Southern Barbarian Tribes.”
“More than a dozen Demon Kings…” Yang Kai raised his eyebrows. The first thought that came to his mind was whether there were any of his own people among these dozen Demon Kings. If there were, then things would be easier.
The bugle sound in the city was still echoing. Since it was an order issued by the Witch Kings, Yang Kai naturally couldn’t disobey. He nodded and said, “Let the tribesmen prepare. We will set off in two hours.”
“Yes！” The twins nodded and turned to leave.
Two hours later, nearly twenty thousand people gathered outside the city. Yang Kai didn’t ride the giant eagle but sat upright on the back of a tall demonic beast. Looking around at his army, he didn’t say much and just waved his hand and shouted in a low voice, “Set off！”
The sound of uniform steps rang out and the rhythm of trampling on the ground was like the sound of war drums. Nearly twenty thousand people, divided into more than twenty small teams, marched mightily towards the Jiaohe area.
After a while, Yang Kai turned his head and looked at Bao Qi and said in a low voice, “Ask Fei Li what the situation is on the Demon Race side.”
Bao Qi nodded slightly, and a black crow flew out from his body surface, flapped its wings and disappeared from everyone’s sight. Many barbarians were used to it.
The march of twenty thousand people was not a simple matter. The coordination, cooperation, and alert of each team were all knowledge. Although Yang Kai was in charge of so many people for the first time, he also had the depth of the Emperor Respect Jing and a powerful spiritual thought. Therefore, after experiencing the initial discomfort of a few days, he could quickly issue various orders in an orderly manner and command with great ease, like a real commander who had experienced the battlefield.
Although the number of the army was large, the speed was not slow at all.
Encountering some scattered and wandering demons on the way, they easily wiped them out. All the way through the battles, the morale of the Wu Niu Tribe rose steadily.
However, a hint of unease welled up in Yang Kai’s heart.
Because Fili had not replied at all, which made him smell something bad. Fili had been branded with a soul brand by him and had become his slave. Although he couldn’t sense his thoughts because of the long distance, Yang Kai also knew that Fili would never betray him again.
But after several days, he still didn’t wait for his reply.
In his perception, Fili hadn’t died either.
It was not until the seventh day that a small black dot appeared on the horizon. Yang Kai looked up and confirmed that it was a black crow by demonic energy. This was the most common means of communication among the Demon Kings.
The black crow flew straight towards this side, circled over the army for a while, and then landed on Bao Qi’s shoulder.
Bao Qi caught the black crow, and the lifelike black crow immediately turned into a wisp of black qi and was sucked into his body by him.
Immediately, Bao Qi trembled all over, and an expression of horror actually emerged. He turned his head and said to Yang Kai, “Mo Duo… is here！”
“What？” Shaya’s face also lost its color, and she looked at Bao Qi in shock： “How could he come？”
Yang Kai frowned and said： “Who is that？”
From the expressions of the two Demon Kings, he guessed that this Modo must be an extremely powerful fellow. Otherwise, it wouldn’t have made Bao Qi and Sha Ya so afraid. And an existence whose name alone could have such an effect was probably only…
“Modo is a Demon Saint！”
Yang Kai became even more confused： “Aren’t all the Demon Saints healing their injuries？ What’s the situation with this Modo？” He turned his head and looked at Sha Ya. He had basically obtained all the information about the Demon Race from Sha Ya. Sha Ya had indeed said that the Demon Saints were all healing their injuries before, and the information obtained by the Barbarian Race also proved this point.
For a powerhouse like a Demon Saint to be injured, it wouldn’t be possible to fully recover in just a few months.
Sha Ya’s face was pale as she said： “Lord Modo… should be a newcomer.”
“A newcomer？”
Bao Qi said： “He just arrived recently.”
Yang Kai was shocked： “It can still be like this？ Can your Demon Realm send Demon Saints over at any time？”
If this was really the case, then the Barbarian Race would have no hope at all. In the last battle of the Saints, the Demon Saints didn’t have it easy, and the Wu Saints also didn’t have it easy. Both sides were eager to heal their injuries so there had been no figure of the Saints in the past few months.
But if the Demon Realm could send other Demon Saints over at will, the Barbarian Race simply wouldn’t have the power to resist.
Bao Qi shook his head and said, “Under normal circumstances, it’s impossible. The boundary wall opened by the Great Demon God last time has allowed enough demons to pass through. If more demons pass through, the boundary wall will definitely become unstable, and we won’t be able to go back either. Lord Modo… might have paid some price to be able to descend to this land.”
Shaya also said, “The means of the Demon Saints are beyond imagination. Perhaps there are some things we don’t understand.”
Bao Qi took a light breath and said, “Anyway, Demon Saint Modo has come, and his target is the Southern Barbarian Tribe.”
Yang Kai’s expression changed.
“Sir, we can’t go there anymore. The reason why Philip replied so late is because there is Demon Saint Modo by his side, and he didn’t dare to send messages casually. But according to the news he got, this time Demon Saint Modo wants to wipe out one of your tribes to let you barbarians know the consequences of killing demons. The reason he hasn’t taken action has been waiting for you to gather. Once the time is almost right, he will display his supernatural powers and make you total annihilation.
Shaya said, “Yes, sir, it’s better to go back.”
Yang Kai glanced at them and said in a deep voice, “If it were you, would you go forward bravely or shrink back in fear？”
The two didn’t answer. Not to mention what Shaya would do, Bao Qi would definitely go forward bravely. Twenty thousand people is not a small number. Once they merge into the Southern Barbarian Tribe, perhaps they can have some unexpected effects. Not to mention turning the situation around, it will definitely greatly increase the strength of the Southern Barbarian Tribe.
Both of them already knew Yang Kai’s choice.
“Accelerate the advance！” Yang Kai shouted in a low voice and urged the demonic beast beneath him, and the speed suddenly increased.
The incantations of the wizards rang out, and circles of light of the Levitation Spell enveloped the army, and the marching speed immediately increased a lot.
In one day, they covered the distance of two days, and the assembly point was in sight.
But at this moment, an extremely uneasy aura suddenly enveloped from all directions. It seemed that the entire heaven and earth had perceived something abnormal and was warning all things in the world.
The demonic beasts beneath the cavalry’s crotches clearly showed uneasiness and uncontrollably hissed and became irritable. Even dozens of demonic beasts rushed into the crowd, causing the orderly team to be in chaos for a while.
The rhythm of the army’s advance was suddenly disrupted.
Yang Kai frowned and looked up ahead as if he felt something. His eyes narrowed slightly, and he raised his hand to stop the army’s advance.
The restlessness of the demonic beasts became more and more intense. The cavalry tried their best to suppress it, but it had no effect.
