Chapter 866 - Where Is My Comrade?!

The region, where Lu Ze and the girls were, received most of the attention, whether it was from the blade demons or humans.

Witnessing Keke Lusi getting trapped in darkness, the blade demons stopped retreating. They couldn’t just give up on a level-8 star state without a fight.

The level-9 star state blade demon roared, “Scatter the darkness and save Keke Lusi! How dare you?!”

The human side increased the forces of their attacks. Nevertheless, all the blade demons continued to block them. They were willing to directly receive the hits just so they could interrupt the darkness surrounding their comrade.

The leading level-9 star state also took a hit from Iman in exchange for a chance to shoot out a black sword ray towards the darkness.

After the group noticed the incoming attacks launched at them, their expressions changed. If it were just level-6 or level-7 star state attacks, it wouldn’t affect them gravely. But level-9 star state attacks were something else! Lu Ze quickly used space god art to reach Lu Li and the other girls. “Come, let’s leave…”

Before he could proceed, Lu Ze stopped in his tracks. His expression became odd. All the girls had the same reaction.

As it turned out, all the attacks that were launched didn’t have a particular target at all. Some seemed to be heading for the group, but the others also landed on Keke Lusi. The same went for the retaliation sent by the level-9 star state, Keke Lusi just ran around in the darkness like a fly.

Lu Ze and the girls could only watch the level-9 star state shoot a black sword ray, which was actually heading for Keke Lusi…

Lu Ze’s mouth twitched as he remarked, “Li, the beings outside cannot see through the mist, can they?”

Lu Li responded, “The Eternal Darkness Mist is a cosmic cloud state divine art. Ordinary level-9 star states wouldn’t be able to clearly see the situation inside with my current power.”

Everyone: “…”

Lu Ze and the girls dodged the weak attacks. They simply stood by as they witnessed the level-9 star state sword ray approached Keke Lusi.

Keke Lusi finally sensed the incoming threat.

His consciousness was fading away due to the eerie divine art. He let out strange roars.

His sword flashed vibrantly as it clumsily clashed with the sword ray.

‘Rumble!!’

A shockwave rattled the mist.

Lu Li’s face went pale. “I can’t hold on!”

Right then, the mist slowly retreated. The fate of Keke Lusi was finally revealed. The level-9 sword ray ended up shattering his sword and slicing his armor.

Everyone saw it.

Blade demons: “???”

Humans: ???

They watched the blade demon shoot the sword ray but…

‘W-why did it hit Keke Lusi?’

Keke Lusi was flung a thousand kilometers away. The reason he wasn’t dead yet was due to the eerie divine art. His combat power managed to rose up. The level-9 star state blade demon didn’t know what to say. He opened his mouth but nothing came out.

At this moment, another roar filled the space. Dark-red streams spun around Keke Lusi as his chi became uncanny.

With this scene, the faces of the Blade Demon Race changed. “Oh shit! Blood Demon Transformation! Keke Lusi was forced to use a forbidden divine art?!”

Keke Lusi shot across space and appeared before the level-9 star state. His arm blades flashed with terrifying dark-red spirit light as he hacked towards the blade demon that rendered the blow earlier.

Lu Ze and the girls: “???”

‘An internal conflict?’

The arms of the level-9 star state blade demon also glowed and blocked the attack.

‘Rumble!!’ The level-9 star state and Keke Lusi were blown away by the force released by the clash. “General Duoduo Nike!!”

“Damn it! Keke Lusi has lost his mind after using Blood Demon transformation! What do we do?!”

“Stop him?!”

“Who?!”

Keke Lusi could hold himself against Duoduo Nike a little now. Who would dare to go up?

Moreover…

The human side wasn’t going to let this opportunity slip. True enough, Iman roared, “Attack!”

The humans used maximized their forces to attack the blade demons.

Qiuyue Hesha’s face appeared strange. “No wonder I felt his consciousness turn chaotic after using that divine art. I thought it was some mental force defense technique…”

Lu Ze chimed in, “As long as you become an idiot, you won’t be controlled, right? I don’t see any problem with that..”

Lu Li smiled. “… If it weren’t for that blade demon’s attack, he might really be fine now.”

Duoduo Nike wanted to die. He blocked Keke Lusi’s attacks while watching out for Iman. He roared, “Retreat! Hurry!”

Everyone withdrew.

Given this development, Lu Ze and the girls smiled.

Qiuyue Hesha used seduction god art. Instantly, all the star states were affected, except for Duoduo Nike and the other level-8 star state.

It was a brief moment, but the blade demons were assaulted once again.

Quite some blade demons were heavily injured. Some even died on the spot. The rest had received some damages too.

Lu Ze and Nangong Jing charged towards the other level-8 star state.

He was already having a difficult time facing two level-8 human star states. When he saw Lu Ze and Nangong Jing inched closer, his face became pale.

He cried out, “General Duoduo Nike!”

Duoduo Nike saw this, of course. His eyes flashed with a sliver of pain as he ordered, “Run! Try your best to survive!”

Hearing this, all the blade demons rejoiced. Some had blood light appearing around them as they tore through space and disappeared from the spot.

Some used runic scrolls that also helped them experienced a surge in speed.

Some weaker blade demons were about to do the same, but they stopped after Qiuyue Hesha used seduction god art. Naturally, they were massacred by humans.

The level-8 star state blade demon also tore open a green scroll. He instantly turned into a beam and disappeared.

Duoduo Nike looked coldly at Lu Ze before breaking free from Keke Lusi and disappearing thereafter.

Only Keke Lusi was left behind.

He roared at Duoduo Nike.

He was going to keep chasing after the other blade demon.

At this moment, the dark-red light around flashed, and a bloody smoke spread out. His chi instantly dropped.

His divine art had faded away, and his mind was clear again.

He looked around but only saw humans. He didn’t see a single blade demon.

‘Where are my teammates?!’

‘A-am I… abandoned?!’
