The Demon Lord of the Great Blade, the leader of the Four Great Demon Lords, had now recovered and saw that the Flying Spirit Demon Lord was completely drawn into Wang Long's plan. On the surface, it seemed that the Flying Spirit Demon Lord had the upper hand, but in reality, it had led to an underestimation of Wang Long's strength.
This was exactly the outcome Wang Long desired.
Previously, Shunshen had secretly informed him that they could perform a flash movement, but now Cai Burin was being firmly suppressed by two Ancient Demon Lords, leaving no room for retreat.
Wang Long needed someone to "provide" him with an opportunity!
The Flying Spirit Demon Lord, caught up in the fight, did not realize that Wang Long was getting closer to Cai Burin. He only noticed that he had no resistance against Wang Long's Evil Wind.
However, the Demon Lord of the Great Blade mistakenly believed he had seen through Wang Long.
"Want to save your companion?" Suddenly, the Demon Lord of the Great Blade appeared in front of Wang Long, blocking his path with a horizontal strike. "Dream on!"
With a strong enemy in front and pursuers behind, the Demon Lord of the Great Blade found it strange that a smug smile appeared on Wang Long's face. Just as he sensed something was wrong, Wang Long vanished from his sight!
"Flash Movement!" By the time both the Demon Lord of the Great Blade and the Flying Spirit Demon Lord realized Wang Long's plan, it was already too late. A wave of Evil Wind and a beam of Blade Light were inevitably heading towards their own side.
Especially concerning the attack from the Flying Spirit Demon Lord.
On the surface, his Evil Wind seemed like a technique of his own, but only he and Brahma Demon King knew that it was a very special treasure, formless and invisible. His control over such a treasure could not be as effortless as his own techniques. Moreover, facing off against the Demon Lord of the Great Blade, whether he could fully retract his treasure was uncertain—what if he fully retracted it while the Demon Lord of the Great Blade did not pull back his own Blade Light?
In fact, his concerns were not unfounded.
With a loud explosion, when the two forces collided, the beam of Blade Light struck the Evil Wind, but instead of passing through it, both powers clashed violently against each other, sending both of the strongest Ancient Demon Lords flying away and rendering them unable to threaten Wang Long and Cai Burin any further.
Meanwhile, on another front, two members of the Water Crossing Demon Lord were pressing down on Cai Burin, seemingly just moments away from defeating him. However, they were shocked to see Wang Long break through towards them directly from between the two powerful figures—the Demon Lord of the Great Blade and the Flying Spirit Demon Lord!
Given their strengths, each one surpassed Wang Long, but at this moment, although they had suppressed Cai Burin, he managed to launch fierce counterattacks whenever they let their guard down. Consequently, they misjudged Wang Long's strength, thinking he must possess some formidable magic or treasure capable of defeating both the Demon Lord of the Great Blade and the Flying Spirit Demon Lord. In their panic, they even hesitated to attack aggressively against Cai Burin, instead adopting a defensive stance to avoid falling into one of Wang Long's traps.
This was precisely what Wang Long wanted!
Seizing his chance, he grabbed hold of Cai Burin, shouting loudly: "Shunshen!”
On the other side, the Demon Lord of the Great Blade, who had just stabilized his stance, shouted, "Don't be fooled by him; they are trying to escape!"
However, it was already too late. Amidst Wang Long's disdainful sneer, the three of them simultaneously vanished without a trace.
"Damn it! How could we, the three great masters, be toyed with like this!" Seeing Wang Long and the others disappear, the Flying Spirit Demon Lord furiously punched down a large tree.
"Alright, what good does it do to say this now?" The Demon Lord of the Great Blade remained the calmest among the four. This was his nature. Since they had already failed, there was no point in regretting; it was more practical to figure out how to salvage the situation.
But not everyone was as magnanimous as he was.
The Flying Spirit Demon Lord glared at him fiercely: "Demon Lord of the Great Blade! Did you deliberately block me just now because you saw I was about to succeed, allowing them to escape?"
Even with his good temper, the Demon Lord of the Great Blade could not help but respond with a frown: "What do you mean by that? Don't shift all your failures onto others!"
"Enough! Everyone stop arguing about this." This time, even the Water Crossing Demon Lord and others did not come to his aid; they also felt that the Flying Spirit Demon Lord had gone a bit too far.
"Hmph! You two were focused on dealing with Cai Burin just now and didn't see what happened. I clearly had Wang Long cornered to the point where he didn't dare look back and could only flee for his life. If you hadn't intervened, even if we hadn't captured him yet, he wouldn't have had a chance to push back against Water Crossing Demon Lord and the others! So tell us, why did you step in front of him and injure my treasure with your blade?"
The Demon Lord of the Great Blade coldly looked at him: "Was he really in such dire straits when you were chasing him? Why did I see that he was intentionally leading you towards the battlefield with Water Crossing Demon Lord and Cai Burin, while you were completely oblivious? Given how things were going, if I hadn't intervened, you would have likely been led into attacking Water Crossing Demon Lord and caused casualties among our own people! Think about it; at that time Shunshen had already partially regained his strength!"
"Uh." The Flying Spirit Demon Lord was taken aback; he had nothing more to argue. He knew that although his treasure was exceptionally strange, its greatest weakness was still its speed against such top-tier experts. It might have been exploited by Wang Long, not to mention Shunshen providing backup; as long as they seized the opportunity, dodging a fatal blow wouldn't be too difficult.
More importantly, he realized that the Demon Lord of the Great Blade had hit upon his situation perfectly. He truly hadn't noticed that Wang Long had already moved towards Cai Burin's side. This critical oversight made him feel a chill inside: thankfully...
"Flying Spirit Demon Lord, listen to me! I don't care how much dissatisfaction you have inside or how high your self-esteem is! This time I was appointed as the person in charge by Lord Brahma himself. If you have any grievances, wait until we return and complain to Lurking Demon King. If we continue to act without unity and undermine each other’s efforts afterward, then don’t blame me for being ruthless!"
This time not only did the Flying Spirit Demon Lord lower his head, but even Water Crossing Demon Lord couldn't help but do so as well. He understood that this statement from the Demon Lord of the Great Blade referred to when he first clashed with Wang Long. If any one of them had left Cai Burin to support the Demon Lord of the Great Blade or strike Wang Long at that moment, he would have either died or been left in a very embarrassing situation and wouldn't have been able to execute any further strategies!
Although they still harbored doubts about whether the Demon Lord of the Great Blade could suppress Wang Long's strength, they no longer dared to voice them directly.
"Ahem, let's put this matter on hold for now. Letting those three escape is partly our fault for being too careless. However, if something like this happens again, it will be difficult for us four to explain ourselves to Brahma Demon King afterward. What are your thoughts on our next course of action?"
Seeing the current situation was quite awkward, the most low-key Iron War Demon Lord had to take on the role of a mediator.
"Well, we still need to see where they have moved to. The previous Cai Burin was injured by the two of us, and he certainly hasn't recovered yet. Moreover, Wang Long faced off against Giant Force Demon Lord earlier, so he must have paid some price as well! Now is the perfect time to catch up, as they are at their weakest."
"I agree!"
Upon hearing Water Crossing Demon Lord's words, the other two Demon Lords expressed their agreement. Only Giant Force Demon Lord remained silent, pondering.
The warriors of the Demon Clan controlling the Flying Cross Star Morning Annihilation Formation rushed over after hearing their inquiry: "Reporting to several Demon Lords, although those four enemies have teleported away, they haven't escaped too far. They are located in the northwest, near Yichuan Peak."
"Oh? It doesn't seem too far," Water Crossing Demon Lord sighed in relief upon hearing the report. "If we hurry now, we can catch up within half a stick of incense. Giant Force Demon Lord, you won't have any objections this time, will you?"
"You guessed correctly," Giant Force Demon Lord replied calmly. "I do have an objection; this time, we cannot pursue!"
"Uh."
As soon as Giant Force Demon Lord said this, the internal conflicts that had been somewhat alleviated flared up again.
