Chapter 696 - An Ambush 1

Chapter 696 An Ambush 1

With such a huge temptation before him, Situ Ba’s face was filled with the desire for power. If he could catch the two Demon Kings, his status in the Kingdom of the Sacred Dragon would be second only to that of the king. At that time, even the first Terminator would be overshadowed by his glory.
As if he could see that lofty status before him, Situ Ba immediately urged his soldiers to hurry forward, wanting to reach at the most opportune moment.
In the darkness, Situ Ba’s eyes gleamed with excitement.
Suddenly…
A black shadow flashed past the troop.
“What was that!” Zhan Fei received a sudden shock and looked to the side in fear.
Situ Ba frowned slightly. “It might be the guards from the Demon Clan. Everyone stay alert. If you see a demon, kill it immediately.”
He would allow no one to block an opportunity for him to climb upwards.
The Green Nightmare Army was immediately on high alert. However, in the darkness, the torches they held could only light up a limited area. In this underground world saturated with demon aura, they could not see their surroundings clearly.
A large black shadow suddenly brushed by the Green Nightmare Army’s flank. Before any of the Green Nightmare Army soldiers realized it, a tragic scream suddenly rang out from the midst of the Green Nightmare Army.
“Ahhhh!”
The scent of blood followed the piercing and tragic scream and suddenly spread to the entire troop. Situ Ba was in the lead and his expression froze. As he turned to look behind him, he discovered that the troop on the Green Nightmare Army’s flank had been ambushed and over ten soldiers had been minced up in an instant.
However, he had not seen what had attacked the troop!
“What was that! A demon, it must have been a demon.” Zhan Fei’s face was ashen. As the demon aura there was too thick, they could not sense that demons were near.
However, the incident was not at an end. Just as Situ Ba was frowning deeply, a black shadow suddenly swooped down on the troop from above. The huge black shadow brought with it a wind blade that was as sharp as a knife. It moved with the speed of lightning and the Green Nightmare Army became embroiled in a bloody whirlpool.
In an instant, the soldiers of Green Nightmare Army had been sliced into pieces by the wind blade. Blood exploded before their eyes. No one could see what had attacked them. They could only sense that death was imminent.
“Steady!” When he saw his troops dissolve into chaos, Situ Ba’s expression became extremely ugly. A series of suspicions arose in his heart.
By right, once they had formed the Ten Thousand Demon Array, no demon would be allowed to remain near the breeding site of the new Demon King. That was why they had not seen a single demon when they had entered the central region of the demons’ nest.
But…
This sudden ambush had shattered Situ Ba’s view.
“Who saw the thing clearly?” Situ Ba asked coldly.
However, the soldiers of the Green Nightmare Army could not answer Situ Ba’s question. Like lightning, the black shadow appeared and caused another wave of bloodshed and then again vanished instantly and without a trace. Its speed was greater than that of any demon they had encountered before.
“It might be an extremely high-level demon. General Situ, what should we do?” Zhan Fei’s heart was in his throat. The fighting strength of a high-level demon was very great, second only to that of the Demon King. Even a troop led by a Terminator would be hard pressed to withstand its attacks.
