Huaxian City is currently in a chilling atmosphere. The city is full of fully armed female warriors from the Nine-Tails Familia clan with resolute expressions.
Those warriors are basically banshees, coming from the families of Hua Niao Juan and Qing Xing Lan respectively.
Due to Tamamo-mae's personal preference, most of the Nine-Tails Familia are banshees, especially those belonging to the Flower Bird Maki and Aoi Hōdō.
Of course, the rise of Yin and the decline of Yang does not mean that the Nine-Tails clan is weak in combat effectiveness.
The fact is, compared with the other two demon emperors' clans, except that the Nine-Tails clan has fewer members, its combat effectiveness is not inferior to them.
As for the small number of people in the clan, it is not because there are too many female demons in the Nine-tailed Familia clan, and the yin is strong and the yang is weak, so it is difficult to breed offspring.
In fact, there are many ways for the demon clan to reproduce their offspring, including sexual reproduction, asexual reproduction, and even part-sexual reproduction like the Yuki Onna clan.
Therefore, the demon tribe does not have any difficulty in breeding offspring, even if a tribe is basically not a banshee.
The real reason why the Nine-Tailed Familia clan has so few people is that Tamamo-mae didn't take in too many Familia during his lifetime.
In fact, given the great strength of Tamamo-zen's reigning Demon Emperor, if she wishes to dominate the island country, it is not impossible to bring all the island nation's demon clan under her command.
But she didn't do that, so she took in a small number of dependents and maintained a delicate balance with the other two Demon Emperors.
No one knows why she did that. From the perspective of Hanatori Maki and other former subordinates of Tamamo Mae, maybe it was because Tamamo Mae didn't like fighting and wanted to ensure the external harmony of the island country's demon clan.
That kind of balance has indeed ensured the peace of the island country's monster clan for hundreds of years.
However, this was based on the fact that Tamamo Mae was still alive. After Tamamo Mae's death, that balance was broken. The weakness of the Nine-Tails clan with fewer members and fewer demon kings was quickly reflected.
"Qing Deng, they have a lot of people here, not only the Snow Maiden clan, but also the Bachi clan, the traitorous Arakawa clan, and even..."
At this time, Hua Niao Juan and other three demon kings were standing at the top of the city.
Seeing more and more black shadows to the north, and densely covering the entire plain, Hanamori's heart suddenly sank.
Although she knew that they would face a fierce battle tomorrow, and tomorrow they would face the most powerful one among the original Nine-tailed Familia - the Snow Maiden Clan.
But she could not help but underestimate the Snow Demon King's determination to deal with them. Those who came that time were not just the Snow Maiden clan, but also members of the traitorous Demon King's clan, and even...
"Those people should be the members of the Shuton clan!"
Qing Xingdeng took the words from the Flower and Bird Scroll, stretched out his jade finger, and pointed at the large number of black shadows that were flying out of the space door one after another.
Judging from the aura, the black shadows that flew out later were completely different from those of the Nine-Tailed Familia. They were demon clans that carried the aura of another Demon King.
The powerful presences of the leaders of the group of monsters also made Hua Niaojuan and Qing Xingdeng feel somewhat familiar.
Those few are clearly the demon kings of the drunken family members!
"One, two, three, four, five, six... plus in Arakawa, eight feet, there is the Demon King Xuerong of the Snow Maiden clan. Nine demon kings actually came here. That's really impressive!"
Qing Xingdeng counted the number of demon kings who came that time, and suddenly said in shock.
"..."
Hanana Maki remained silent, while Akeno frowned and tightened her brows.
Qing Xingdeng sighed and continued:
"On the other hand, they have me on their side, and if he adds Akeno's three demon king-level combat powers, then... it's really going to be a big trouble!"
Is it really a big trouble?
According to the original plan, the three of them had to work together to defeat the Demon King and the traitor Demon King of the Snow Maiden clan and force the Snow Demon Emperor to show up.
There were three mistakes in the first place, and with the presence of an outsider on the other side, it would not be easy to do it.
However, who would have known that the Snow Demon Emperor would actually find six demon kings from the Shutun family clan that time.
The situation has also changed from three mistakes, three mistakes, one thing, and nine mistakes, which is equivalent to each of them asking to pay three demon kings by mistake.
In this situation, even if there is help from outsiders, it is almost impossible to win!
The arrival of the demon king of the Shuten clan was beyond the expectations of the three girls. It was not that they had not thought of that, but it was actually a bit unreasonable.
Although everyone knew about the Snow Demon Emperor's collusion with Shuten, in everyone's eyes, the two Demon Emperors were not allies at best.
Conquering the Nine-Tails Familia is such a trivial matter. With the Snow Demon Emperor's arrogance, how could Keke go to the trouble of swallowing his leg after drinking alcohol?
That's unreasonable!
"Hurry and inform Master Kyuubi that the situation has changed..."
Hua Niaojuan was the first to react and immediately summoned a subordinate to inform Haoren.
It was completely different from what was expected from the beginning, and it may be difficult to implement Lord Kyuubi's plan.
Although Haoren had no specific plan to explain to Hua Niao Juan and others in detail, he would tell them that after forcing the Snow Demon Emperor out of his legs, he would find his own way to make the wrong payment.
But Ru Ming seems to think that it may be necessary to prepare for the worst.
What is the worst case scenario?
If all the demon kings of Jiutun Tongtong are here, there is no guarantee that Jiutun Tongzi won't get involved secretly.
If Shuten Douji also comes, that would be the worst case scenario.
Kyuubi-sama mistakenly assigned one Demon Emperor. It might be possible to do well with the coordination of strategies and various arrangements, but if he chooses to assign two Demon Emperors by mistake, then I'm afraid...
When he thought of that, Hua Niaojuan's face suddenly turned red, and he even went to Han Zhen to report the news to Zhu Dong.
"Wait a minute, I'll tell Mr. Kyuubi that the situation has changed and ask him to evacuate as soon as possible. They will try to delay it as long as possible!"
There is a shadow demon who was ordered by Hanatori to report the news. She has the ability to transform into shadows and can sneak into any place unknowingly and silently, which is a good leg for espionage work.
There was such a shadow demon who was good at escaping shadows. After receiving the order, he quickly turned into a shadow, left the city, and fled towards the east mountain.
However, the moment Yongxuan left the city, there was a slight spatial fluctuation.
Then the city wall suddenly opened a small space crack in the air, and a sharp ice blade quickly flew out of the crack, directly hitting the shadow that had just escaped from the east city wall.
"ah--!"
Suddenly, a shrill scream came from the shadow, and at a moment in the east, the shadow suddenly revealed its shape, turning into a cold corpse that was cut into two pieces by the ice blade.
The shadow demon who went to report the news was killed on the spot.
After the ice blade was shot, a beautiful woman's figure gradually appeared in the space crack.
The beautiful woman has long snow-red hair and is wearing a snow suit. She has a delicate appearance and a curvy figure, and she has the style of a mature woman.
"Xue Rong, deny me!"
After the beautiful woman in snow clothes appeared, Hua Niao Juan recognized her identity instantly.
Xuerong, the Demon King of the Snow Girl Clan, was also the most powerful Demon King under the command of Tamamo Mae.
Regardless of whether it was based on seniority or strength, Xuerong's status in the Nine-Tails Familia had previously surpassed that of Hua Niao Juan.
They are both demon kings of the Nine-Tails clan, and Hanatori Juan and Xuerong had a pretty good personal relationship before.
If we meet again tomorrow, we will already be enemies.
"Flowers and birds, long time no see..."
The beautiful woman nodded slightly at the flowers and birds, but her expression was unusually indifferent.
"I heard that we have welcomed back the successor of Tamamo-mae and rejected my king.
I'm sorry, but tomorrow, none of us will be able to get out of there alive!"
…
At the same time, there was a high mountain to the east of Huaxian City. Haoren stood on the top of the mountain, but did not observe the movement of Huaxian City in the distance.
Huaxian City has various arrangements, so I just hope you don't leave the city, as there won't be any danger for the time being.
Therefore, he is not worried about any accidents in Huaxian City. Of course, the most important thing is that he has no time to pay attention to the situation there at the moment.
Because at that time he was setting up an extremely complicated barrier.
The dark purple runes were carved one by one by Haoren along a strange matrix.
The runes shone with a mysterious light, and at the same time exuded the unknown aura of the liquid, as if it were something indescribable.
There is a small bowl placed in the center of the matrix, which seems to contain several pieces of black feather-like things. It looks like a sacrifice or an offering, and it is full of mysterious atmosphere.
Mystery lingers in the black feather, and it looks particularly dreamy against the purple light.
"Haoren, the situation seems to be good. There are a lot of people coming from the Snow Demon Emperor. Hua Niaojuan and the others may not be able to resist them. They must rescue them. Otherwise, I'm afraid the city will be destroyed in a short time..."
Just because Haoren didn't observe the situation in Huaxian City, it doesn't mean they didn't.
Just when he was concentrating on carving the barrier matrix, Xue Ji suddenly came to him and shouted softly.
"..."
However, Haoren did not respond to Xue Ji.
Even after hearing the unexpected news, he didn't even frown, his expression remained extremely calm.
To Xue Ji, it seemed that Haoren was too focused on describing the matrix and failed to hear what she said clearly.
"Haoren, Haoren, did I hear what he said?"
"There seem to be a lot of enemies..."
She shouted softly next to her twice more, but she still didn't get a response from Haoren.
Gradually, Xue Ji frowned slightly.
For some reason, Haoren's indifferent attitude at the moment gave her a not-so-good idea.
"Haoren, do you agree with my plan? Let Hua Niaojuan and the others hold them back, even if they pay for it with their lives. Then I will take advantage of this opportunity to do something there...am I depicting something?"
Xue Ji couldn't understand what Haoren was doing, or what he was portraying.
That's right, something unexpected has obviously appeared, and there are obviously more enemies than imagined.
If the plan really changes, then we should rescue Hanatori and others as soon as possible, and then take them to evacuate this place.
However, Haoren still acted as if nothing had happened and was still executing the original plan.
That approach made her feel slightly uncomfortable.
But she also felt that Haoren should not be that kind of person, so she patiently asked.
"Xue Ji, I should know him. Is he that kind of person?"
When Xue Ji asked, Haoren raised his head and chuckled:
"Victory gained at the expense of others is not worthy of being called victory to him!"
Maybe Haoren is not a righteous partner, or maybe the trouble he encounters has nothing to do with him, but it just doesn't matter.
However, he is not a principled person.
He won't do anything that he's not sure about, nor will he agree to it.
And once he agrees to something, he will try his best to get the maximum results with the minimum loss.
"It's just that there are more enemies. It would be too rash to set up a trap without even considering those circumstances.
Xue Ji, do I know that even if there are ten times more enemies coming, even if the three demon kings of the island country arrive together, it is all under his consideration..."
After saying that sentence, Haoren just finished carving the last stroke of the matrix.
A burst of deep purple light shone, and at that moment, the matrix emitted enough light to block the moonlight, but it was blocked by the shielding barrier Haoren had put in place in advance.
The entire matrix exudes an unusually sacred yet ancient atmosphere.
As the matrix took shape, Haoren closed his eyes and began to whisper something that sounded like a mantra or a blessing.
"The maid of the supreme god Odin, the female warrior who searches for heroic spirits, the goddess of war who organizes war, I will temporarily replace Odin and obey my call...
At this moment, sublime your body beyond the surface of the earth and leave the all-devouring fanaticism outside..."
Xue Ji felt very strange when Yu Haoren suddenly started to recite a spell.
I would like to know if general witchcraft can be cast without reciting incantations.
And spiritual arts...
In the early days when human beings had just mastered spiritual arts, it may have been necessary to chant mantras to release spiritual arts.
However, in the past two hundred years, with the development of human science and technology, humans have developed various methods of shortening the chanting of mantras. In the past, they even achieved the goal of releasing spiritual magic without chanting.
Contrary to the current modern system of spiritual arts, apart from the spiritual arts similar to those of witches, there are generally very few spiritual arts that require chanting spells to release.
Chanting mantras is regarded as a backward and unscientific method of releasing spiritual magic, and has been eliminated.
However, nothing is ever wrong.
In terms of modern systems of spirituality, it is not correct to say that chanting is not permitted.
For that kind of ancient spiritual art, chanting can maximize its power.
Sometimes it is even necessary to arrange ancient matrices so that the power of spiritual arts can be exerted to a greater extent.
Just like the ancient rune magic released by Haoren at this moment.
"Run magic, Valkyrie summons!"
As Haoren's singing came to an end, a brilliant red light suddenly descended on the mountainous area, dyeing the entire mountain peak crimson.
With the arrival of the red light, the purple matrix on the ground gradually began to split, evolving into a huge crimson matrix with three "pin" characters arranged. The matrix was like burning flames, and it was like three rounds of red rising from the top of the mountain.
The month is normal.
If Haoren had not arranged a barrier to cover it in advance, I am afraid that the dazzling red light would be deeply reflected in the eyes of all creatures outside the fairyland in the painting.
At the moment when the crimson character matrix appeared on the top of the mountain, the hot breath of the liquid slowly filled the air, and the temperature around the entire mountain seemed to have increased a lot in an instant.
In the hot and swaying air, the black feathers in the center of the matrix began to spontaneously ignite without fire. As each feather burned, a person appeared in the matrix wearing a battle armor, with wings on his back, and a golden spear in his legs.
images of women.
There are nine black feathers in total, so three figures are summoned outside each crimson matrix, for a total of nine.
Of course, although those figures have the appearance of human women, there is no breath of life. They are dyed in red and gray, and they exist like inorganic sculptures.
But around it, there is an unusually sacred, yet frightening aura of Ye Chang.
The aura of every female figure among them has reached the level of the reigning demon king.
And Haoren summoned nine reigning demon kings at once. The terrifying and unbelievable scene shocked Xue Ji.
