The Simple Life of Killing Demons

Book 12: Chapter 65

Volume 12 Chapter 65 : The Siege (4)

"Sir Lin Xiang!" Being pleasantly surprised, Faner and Jane-Era immediately rushed towards Lin Xiang, "We knew that Sir Lin Xiang will definitely come back to save us."

"Yup, I'm back." At that moment, Lin Xiang saw Fox lying on the ground. Fox also looked at Lin Xiang, and smiled at him, "Hey."

"Are you alright?" Lin Xiang noticed that Fox's foot was pinned under a wooden board, and there was blood everywhere.

"Do I look alright to you? Are you just going to stand there like that and do nothing?"

"Uh Fan'er, Jane-Era let go first, I'll help Fox." Lin Xiang came to Fox and reached out to grab the broken pieces of the city gate.

"Ha!" The veins in his hand bulged. Lin Xiang exerted great effort to lift the debris and threw it aside.

"Its so heavy! What is this?!"

"Its a piece of the city gate." Jensy hurriedly squatted down to check Fox's injuries. Both of her legs were seriously injured. Fortunately, the relief sculpture of the city gate gave some support to prevent Foxs legs from getting crushed further, so Foxs thighs were not severely injured. Despite that, she could not walk at the moment.

"Jensy, take Fox away quickly, we have quite a few companions out here." As the fog dispersed, they could clearly see the incoming demon soldiers outside the gate, densely packed. The bull-headed demon clan walked into the city gate with an axe in hand, spewing flames out of its nose. Even the demonic insects had flipped over.

Lin Xiang could not help, but break into cold sweat. It was the first time he was facing so many enemies.

"Master!" Dusty ran over. As always, she was the first to reach him, followed by Reidy and Fire Lotus. Then there was Silent Water. Silent Water's stamina was not great. She was panting and blushing from running all the way from the teleportation area. She had no choice but to bend down and take a break.

Meanwhile, behind Silent Water, there was a large group of commoner spirits.

Due to the teleportation crystal being interfered with, Lin Xiang had to wait in the human world for several hours. In the end, he could not wait any longer, so he asked Risa and the others to return first, deciding to take the risk by having Freed teleport him to the demon world first. Fortunately, the location where he was teleported to was near the teleportation area and not surrounded by demon soldiers. Therefore, Silent Water and the others used the special teleportation magic between spirits and their masters to get to him.

The teleportation area was close to the North gate. After Silent Water and the others arrived, Lin Xiang heard screams.

They immediately rushed to the source of the sound, that was when they saw that Bloom Water had injured the only few soldiers guarding the North gate. The North gate was opened, letting the nearby exploring demonic insects enter.

After about a hundred demonic insects came in, Bloom Water and his guards used weak magic to attack the demonic insects, angering them. After that, they hid in the ground, hiding their identities and their doings. The crazed demonic insects then targeted the commoners hiding in the surrounding houses, who were not strong enough to combat.

Without further hesitation, Lin Xiang told Silent Water and the others to keep their distance from the demonic insects, and started their attack.

In a few minutes, hundreds of demonic insects were taken care of, which surprised Lin Xiang. It was completely different from the time in the world beyond the skies. He noticed that he now had his cold sword, which made killing the demonic insects as easy as cutting tofu. Moreover, the cold sword would freeze their wounds and prevent the corrosive liquid from splashing out. Silent Water and the others attacks were also very powerful. Lin Xiang believed that their attack power was at least stronger than that of the soldiers from the outer world.

Among them, Fire Lotus's attack was the fiercest. Under her raging flames, a large area of demonic insects was turned into charcoal.

The most unforgettable scene for the spirits was when Fire Lotus rescued a young spirit who had just lost their parents and were almost eaten by demonic insects. That image had been deeply etched in their minds.

The emotionless girl waved her hand casually, while her flames devoured the demonic insects that wanted to attack the young spirit. She then walked to the spirit's side and helped the spirit up.

After the demonic insects were wiped out, the spirits closed the city gate and gathered together to mourn the death of the victims.

"Why arent any of you fighting back?" Lin Xiang asked the spirits.

Why didnt they fight back? That question stumped them.

What were they doing just now? They were just blindly trying to escape to a safe place. Fight back? Fighting against those terrifying, powerful demon insects? They did not have the courage for that.

Sir Lin Xiang Please stop joking. We are too weak. You should have seen that the spirit who wanted to save his companions. His name is Hyman and he was skillfully dismembered by two of them. It was too terrifying!

"Just now, I saw my relative die before my own eyes Boohoohoo."

"Yes, Sir Lin Xiang, we can't do it at all, we are incapable of dealing with such enemies."

One by one, the spirits all showed signs of fear and cowardice.

"No! As long as everyone works together, we can definitely drive out those invaders!" Lin Xiang's voice was loud and firm.

"I don't understand why you all think you can't defeat them. There is a saying that humans have: There is strength in numbers. A single bamboo stick can be snapped easily, but what about five, or ten bamboo sticks? An enemy cannot be defeated by a single individual, but with two people, three people, we can have a chance to win!"

An invincible enemy does not exist, because the greatest enemy is always within ourselves!" Freed and Lin Xiang said at the same time.

""

Upon hearing Lin Xiang's words, all the spirits fell silent.

Lying on the ground, a little spirit girl, who had been crying beside the blood-stained white cloth covering her parents, stood up and wiped away her tears. She looked at Fire Lotus as she spoke, "I want I want to avenge my parents! I I want to be as strong as the big sister here!"

Fire Lotus did not say a word, but nodded instead.

"Sir Lin Xiang." A male lionman walked out from among the group of spirits, "Although I have not received proper training and still lack battle experience, I am still willing to protect Delza, to protect our home, even if death awaits me! I will get in those evil creatures way!"

"That's right! I used to have a dream of becoming a soldier. Although I failed for some reasons, now, its about time I fulfil that dream."

"Yes! To defend our country, for our family, I want to fight!"

Several spirits also stood up.

Subsequently, more and more spirits began to respond.

Youre right! You all have always complained that your strength is inferior to us noble spirits, but that was never true. Youve always relied on guards and soldiers, thinking that youll be safe with them around, so you havent been training yourself and began burying your own abilities. This is the moment to tap into your hidden capabilities. Those who don't want to die, use your own strength to protect yourselves." Reidy shouted.

"Oh!" The city lord's daughter spoke with great charisma. Those spirits who were still hesitating were all encouraged after listening to Reidy's speech, and they went all out. For themselves and their family, they must fight!

"Bang!" There was a loud noise, coming from the East, where red light covered the area.

Lin Xiang felt something was amiss and rushed over immediately.

The demonic insects were staring at Lin Xiang closely, holding a grudge against being pushed over by Lin Xiang.

The battle blood of the demon soldiers began to boil when they saw so many spirits present.

As for the spirits, although their bodies could not help trembling in face of heavily sinister demon soldiers, they all remained clenching their fists.
