Chapter 2604 Final Preparations (6)
It wasn't that Shen Yanxiao was selfless, but because she knew that even if she wanted to hide, she couldn't.

Others didn't know, but she and Xiu knew very well that with Satan's insistence on Shen Yanxiao's shell, even if she hid in the other four countries, once Satan learned of it, he would definitely bring the main force of the Devil race and slaughter his way to where she was. The cities in the other four countries simply couldn't compare with the might of Sun Never Sets. If the Devil race's main force attacked them, it was likely that they wouldn't last long. But in the Forsaken Land, Shen Yanxiao was still very confident.
Her title as the Demon Lord wasn't just an empty title. Every city in the Forsaken Land was built under her supervision. She dared to pat her chest and declare that even the smallest city in the Forsaken Land had much stronger defenses than the capital cities of each of the four countries!
Instead of being beaten passively, it was better to attack head-on!
Even if she died, Shen Yanxiao would strip the Devil race of a layer of skin!
No one else said anything about Shen Yanxiao's proposal, while Xiu merely stared back at her with deep eyes.
The forces of the Devil race were frightening. The news Shen Yanxiao brought back was indeed not good news. When night fell, the five rulers who were baptized by this bad news left the City Lord Mansion.
After travelling for three days non-stop without any sleep, Shen Yanxiao, who had tried all afternoon to keep up her spirits to say what she had to say, was already exhausted. As soon as Xi Yan left, Shen Yanxiao collapsed on the chair, looking pale.
Shen Siyu gave the Dragon God a meaningful glance and the two left together.
This moment was left for Xiu and Shen Yanxiao, who were reunited after a long period of separation.
Xiu held Shen Yanxiao in his arms and gently embraced her like a rare treasure. He brushed off the hair hanging down on her forehead and wiped the dust on her face with his sleeve. He was full of care and affection, as if she were the only one that could enter his eyes in this world.
"Xiu, do you think we will lose this war?" Having seen the strength of the Devil race, Shen Yanxiao was really not sure about this coming war.
The army sent by the major races, put together, had a total of over twenty million troops, but this number was not as large as the devil army, not to mention that there were still the demons and demon beasts.
"I don't know." Xiu whispered.
"I will do my best." Shen Yanxiao secretly clenched her fists. Although the current state of things was very unfavorable for them, they had a natural advantage — the main battlefield was on their territory.
Shen Yanxiao had used the previous period of time to upgrade the overall defenses of the Brilliance Continent. Without Shen Yanxiao's proactive step, the unprepared Brilliance Continent would surely have been unable to resist the attack of the devils. But now, moats had been dug at the edges of every city, be it large or small. Artilleries had been set up on the walls, and archer towers had been built.
Their troops might not be as numerous as the Devil race's, but they had excellent geographical advantages. As long as they could make good use of the city's defense and offense, they could deplete the enemy's forces before they could invade the city.
So what if a city reached its limit? There were numerous cities on the Brilliance Continent. If the devils want to win, they must sweep all the cities in the entire Brilliance Continent to the ground!
Xiu bowed his head and kissed Shen Yanxiao on the forehead. This little girl was not knocked down by the huge army of the Devil race. On the contrary, it aroused her fighting spirit even more. This was a good thing.
