After leaving the team, the adventurer ladies regretted it deeply

Seeing Lin Da hang his head, unable to utter a single word in rebuttal, the Demons burst into laughter, revealing smug smiles.

If Phoenix Tail Flower dared to use itself as bait, why wouldn't they?

Let the adventurers of Mystic Continent witness the terrifying cohesion of the Demon race!

The Phoenix Tail Flower Adventure Team, like birds trapped in a cage, was surrounded by the Demons in layers, yet no battle ensued. It seemed the Demons were deliberately keeping Lin Da and his team as "bait" to draw out the "Adventurers' Alliance" hiding nearby.

Lin Da kept his head down stubbornly.

Luckily, all the Demons were flying overhead, so none could see the expression on his face.

His white teeth bit hard on the inside of his lip.

Lin Da needed the pain to distract his attention.

Otherwise,

Otherwise...

He feared he would lose his composure.

Before long, several figures appeared in the distance.

The Demons' cohesion was indeed terrifying, and within a short time, another five adventure teams arrived.

Out of the corner of his eye, Lin Da saw one of the teams flying in from the Seven Layer Mountain region, each Demon exuding an extremely profound aura.

The average level had reached an astonishing 47!

Aside from Tasya, who guessed Lin Da's thoughts, the rest of the Phoenix Tail Flower Team felt a twinge of anxiety.

Monica clutched Lin Da's sleeve in fear, while Lulu also pursed her lips, with cold sweat trickling down her forehead.

The appearance of the few girls bracing for danger further convinced the Demons that the Adventurers' Alliance did not have many people.

Especially the little girl with brown hair, her large eyes brimming with tears, looked terrified as she hid in Lin Da's arms.

Her demeanor did not seem feigned at all.

"You called us here just for this novice Sunrise Level team?"

The leader of the Demon adventure team that had come from Seven Layer Mountain was a man with a big beard.

This person said gravely, "Yifeng, don't think that because you're under Lady Bai Mian, you can order us around at will."

"Black Tiger Group Leader, our aim isn't them," Yifeng said gently, shaking his head as he explained his analysis.

The newly arrived Demons suddenly understood.

So they were using the Phoenix Tail Flower Team as bait to lure out the hidden Adventurers' Alliance.

The Black Tiger Group Leader nodded and said, "I see. But let me be clear, the strongest of those Mystic Continent adventure teams belongs to us."

"Heh heh heh, we of the Ferocious Beast adventure team are very interested in that topic as well."

The highest-level Demons started to quarrel over the prey, each wanting to personally kill the strongest among their adversaries.

The Black Tiger Group Leader and the Ferocious Beast Group Leader's eyes were bulging, showing signs that they were about to come to blows.

"Um, can I say something?"

Lin Da raised his hand.

The crowd ignored him, each arguing their own case.

Until Lin Da spoke for the third time, the Black Tiger Group Leader said impatiently, "Speak now if you have something to say, fart if you have to fart, don't disrupt the division of spoils!"

Lin Da: "Is this all of the Demons here?"

"Hmph, how could it be!

But yes, basically all the Demons nearby who saw the distress signal have rushed over.

Ha ha ha, you must be stunned by the cohesion of our Demons!

By the way, where's your so-called Adventurers' Alliance? They wouldn't have gotten scared off by our numbers, would they?"

The Black Tiger Group Leader scoffed, "Mystic Continent is really just a rabble!"

Seeing Lin Da's peculiar expression, the Black Tiger Group Leader frowned and said, "What, are your last words to ask how many Demons have shown up?

Can't you use your eyes?

But never mind, it's no harm telling you.

We have a total of 22 adventure teams, 243 individuals!"

The Demons puffed out their chests, proud of this number.

Being able to gather so many in such a short time was certainly unimaginable for the adventurers.

"243 Moon Rank, that's indeed a lot," Lin Da nodded.

In Cangqing Province's South Red-White Region, there were less than 50 Moon Rank combined.

Such a sight was hard to find elsewhere.

"Hey, where's your Adventurers' Alliance? Why haven't they shown up?"

Yifeng had a bad feeling.

Half an hour passed, and not a shadow of the Alliance had been seen.

Facing the puzzled looks of the crowd, Lin Da said calmly, "The Adventurers' Alliance hasn't failed to show up, they've been here all along."

"Where?"

The Black Tiger Group Leader looked fierce as he drew his curved saber, his Battle Qi erupting like a volcano, gushing forth.

The other Demons also looked around warily, as if facing a great enemy.

But whether it was newly advanced 40-level Moon Ranks or seasoned 47-level ones like the Black Tiger Group Leader, the perceptions they extended found nothing.

"Facing death, you still dare to deceive us?" Black Tiger Group Leader was furious. "I'll cut out the tongue of you, lying little wretch!"

"Sigh."

Lin Da sighed.

He spread his Black Wing Plume and flew to a position level with Black Tiger Group Leader.

"Can't you see, the Adventurers' Alliance has already appeared."

Holding a black card in the palm of his hand, Lin Da calmly drew out the Serpent Shadow Patterned Sword, pointing it at the dense mass of Demons ahead.

A moment of silence fell from the sky.

Because Lin Da's behavior was too arrogant, everyone suspected there was another meaning to his words.

After careful consideration... it seemed to be literal.

Were they, over 200 Demons and 22 adventure teams, really surrounded by Lin Da alone?!

Black Tiger Group Leader realized this and, instead of anger, he burst into laughter, his beard quivering as though it might fall from his chin.

Veins popped out on his forehead, as if they were about to burst.

"Good, I've adventured for more than fifty years and have never seen anyone as arrogant as you.

The last one, who called himself 'Wolf King' Volgan, was also arrogant, but compared to you, he was a humble gentleman."

"Everyone, hold back. I want to devour this kid alive!" roared Black Tiger Group Leader, launching himself toward Lin Da.

The greatsword in his hand became like a rampant Thunder Dragon, with the sound of lightning crackling and popping, changing the color of the entire sky.

His opening move was his Ultimate Skill, Thunder Slash!

For all the Demons, the moment Black Tiger Group Leader made a move, the outcome of the battle was already decided.

Level 47 against level 42, with the former being a battle-hardened Senior Moon Order, there was simply no comparison between the two.

Over 200 Demons showed a cruel smile.

Difeng thought regretfully, Black Crow, it's a pity I cannot avenge you personally.

Let Black Tiger Group Leader cleave this boy in two.

You must watch closely with wide eyes.

In Difeng's imagination, the soul of Black Crow lingered beside him, standing shoulder to shoulder with him, revealing a cold and bloodthirsty smile.

After watching this battle, Black Crow's soul would be able to rest in peace, ascending to heaven as he wished.

Difeng was relieved, thinking that he could return to his hometown and share this good news with Black Crow's wife.

Meanwhile, Lulu and the others were initially tense.

But as Lin Da showed a calm demeanor, they began to guess at something.

"Could it be..."

A shock ran through Lulu's heart.

In her mind, the shadow of a man both loved and hated involuntarily appeared, enshrouded in black.

At the instant Black Tiger Group Leader made his move, the stars and moon in the sky seemed to be blocked by a black curtain.

The entire land plunged into a darkness so deep that one couldn't see their own hand before them.

What's going on?

Everyone was baffled.

The Goddess's Trial? Magical Creatures? Or was it magic from the Adventurers' Alliance?

The first to change was Black Tiger Group Leader.

This powerhouse who had dominated the Seven Layer Mountain Region was petrified, frozen in mid-air.

His hand, holding a saber, gradually loosened.

The weapon fell towards the ground.

Whoosh!!!

Black flames suddenly engulfed Black Tiger Group Leader.

After a moment, his figure vanished.

This level 47 Senior Moon Order, except for his demonic horn, left not a trace behind.

No one knew what happened.

Even the most terrifying Magical Creatures of the 20th layer of the Great Mystery Continent couldn't erase the life of a level 47 Moon Order so easily.

It was like throwing a piece of paper into a roaring fire, instantly consumed.

Under the gaze of hundreds of stunned onlookers, a strange man appeared in the sky.

The man was tall, carrying a black magic sword on his back, with a pure white mask covering his face, only showing the eye sockets.

His coat fluttered in mid-air, and the man's eyes beneath the mask were devoid of warmth, coldly sweeping over the Demons below.

Each person he looked at felt a chill through their body, limbs numb, as if their Magic Circuits had also frozen.

The man reached back, drawing the pitch-black magic sword from its sheath.

The sword was about one and a half meters long and a palm's width wide, tapering towards the tip, with a string of faintly glowing runes along the spine.

The most striking feature was the hollow circular guard with a black gem suspended within, rotating in some pattern.

Upon seeing that nightmarish longsword, Yifeng, Difeng, and others showed a drastic change in expression!

How could it be him!?
