Chapter 732 Lord Emissary, Meng Tu
He believed Lin Qiye was not lying to him, but he also believed in his instinct.
Perhaps he and Lin Qiye had missed something, which was the source of his feeling.
Seeing how serious he was, Lin Qiye also realized something was amiss.
He suddenly remembered that the Demon God Sculpture was still in the ox-headed demon's body.
Could that be the source of Meng Tu's anxiety?
At that thought, Lin Qiye's figure flashed. He immediately went down to look for the Demon God Sculpture.
Meng Tu frowned and looked at Lin Qiye in confusion.
Just as he was about to say something, his expression suddenly changed.
"Get back!"
At the same time, Lin Qiye noticed something was amiss. Before Meng Tu could even shout, he had already started to retreat.
The next second, the space he stood in suddenly collapsed.
Like a broken dam, the area that stretched for hundreds of thousands of meters collapsed in the blink of an eye, forming a terrifying black hole.
Lin Qiye retreated far from the black hole and looked at the horror beyond his sight with lingering fear.
Meng Tu also appeared beside him, his expression hideous.
"Detestable! I didn't expect the situation to be worse than I thought!"
Lin Qiye did not look good either. He did not expect the Demon God Sculpture he had just thrown away would cause such a ruckus.
Moreover, looking at Meng Tu's expression, the things about to happen were not as simple as a few hundred demons.
Sure enough, as soon as the two landed in a relatively safe area, a terrifying energy fluctuation came from the depths of the black hole.
"Hurry up and leave. I can't hold them off for too long!"
Meng Tu's aura suddenly expanded, and his powerful energy made Lin Qiye feel relaxed and happy.
"Lord Emissary, could it be that demons outside the southern warzone have come to help?"
Lin Qiye asked, frowning.
He did not sense any aura that surpassed Meng Tu's from within the teleportation passage.
The strongest aura was the one that had fought with Meng Tu. It should be the strongest demon in the southern warzone, King Tuo Ni.
There were many powerful auras, and he could roughly sense more than a thousand Immortal Realm demons. Apart from them, there were only low-level demons he couldn't sense an end to.
For Lin Qiye, no matter how many low-level demons there were, it was useless.
The only ones more troublesome were the thousand or so Immortal Realm demons.
However, with Meng Tu by their side, they had nothing to fear as long as they worked together.
Meng Tu turned to look at Lin Qiye. Seeing that he was fearless, he said, "This is just a temporary teleportation channel. Demons from outside the southern warzone can't appear here. However, don't think you can rest easy with me here. The demons coming now are probably enough to sweep through all the major cities! Even I can't face them head-on!"
What he didn't mention was that during his battle with King Tuo Ni, he had already faintly sensed the demon race's arrangements.
The demons that had teleported here were probably all the demons in the southern warzone!
It was difficult to estimate the number, and it might even exceed 100 billion!
He gave Wei Tong and the others half an hour to evacuate the residents of Ocean City because it was the maximum time he could buy.
Once this time was over and too many demons came out, even he would be drowned in the sea of demons and never have a chance to escape!
An army of ants could even kill an elephant, not to mention the incoming army was an army of hundreds of billions of demons.
After hearing Meng Tu's words, Lin Qiye already had a plan in mind.
In a one-on-one situation, his strength could not be compared to Meng Tu's.
However, when dealing with demons, Meng Tu could only stand on the sidelines when compared to him, especially low-level demons.
After a short moment of consideration, Lin Qiye looked at Meng Tu and said sternly, "Lord Emissary, I think we can join forces and try."
Meng Tu stared at Lin Qiye.
"You're too naive. To tell you the truth, there's a high probability that the demons coming will exceed 100 billion, and the leader is King Tuo Ni! If you don't leave now, you won't have another chance when he gets here!"
Lin Qiye, already mentally prepared, was slightly shocked by the exaggerated figure. However, he quickly recovered and replied, "What if I can block this dimensional gateway?"
Meng Tu's pupils immediately contracted when he heard this.
"Do you know what you're saying?"
Blocking a teleportation passage that extended for hundreds of thousands of meters was something Meng Tu found unimaginable.
He couldn't think of any way to do this, and he couldn't imagine how a guy at the peak of the Earth Immortal Realm had the confidence to say such a thing.
Lin Qiye's expression became serious. When he met Meng Tu's eyes, he did not dodge at all.
"I only have one question. I wonder if Lord Emissary can stop King Tuo Ni?"
Seeing that Lin Qiye did not answer his question and instead turned it around, Meng Tu had a strange feeling in his heart.
As long as he could stop King Tuo Ni, Lin Qiye could stop the army of demons!
Once this thought came out, Meng Tu was instantly shocked.
However, he quickly calmed down and thought he was being whimsical.
He snorted with a cold face. "Hmph, young man, you're underestimating me."
Meng Tu was obviously unhappy that a boy, merely at the Earth Immortal Realm, dared to speak to him like that.
Even if Lin Qiye was a genius, he was just an ant in front of him!
Lin Qiye could hear the dissatisfaction in Meng Tu's tone. He smiled and cupped his hands, "Since Lord Emissary is not afraid of King Tuo Ni, I will have to trouble you to be my bodyguard for now.
"Leave this dimensional gateway to me!"
Meng Tu looked at Lin Qiye's calm expression and felt the strong confidence he exuded.
He suddenly felt as if the person standing by him was not a youth at the peak of the Earth Immortal Realm but an imposing Supreme!
After a short daze, Meng Tu realized he had lost his composure and coughed.
Then, he looked at Lin Qiye with an unprecedented solemness.
"Boy, you can't joke about this. Your talent is rare, and your future achievements will be extraordinary. If you are not confident, it is best to leave now."
"As long as you can protect me from King Tuo Ni, I'm 100% confident I can block this portal!"
Lin Qiye's tone was firm.
Meng Tu stared at him for a long time, and the conclusion he got was to believe in the youth in front of him!
His thoughts spun quickly.
In the end, Meng Tu made a quick decision and nodded at Lin Qiye.
"Alright, since you're determined, I have no reason to retreat! Don't worry. As long as I'm here, even if there are dozens of demons at the peak of the Celestial Realm, I'll definitely protect you, let alone King Tuo Ni!"
As he said this, Meng Tu had made up his mind.
He had to ensure Lin Qiye's safety. Even if he had to die here, he had to send Lin Qiye away safely!
He saw a power called hope in Lin Qiye. It was not difficult to predict that once he matured, the human race would have one more Supreme Guardian in the future.
As the two conversed, the dimensional portal continued to expand.
Only when it reached a diameter of nearly a million meters did it gradually stop.
A million meters was equivalent to two thousand miles.
Lin Qiye closed his eyes and sensed for a moment. He estimated that the dimensional portal's expansion limit should not exceed 2,500 miles.
It was still far from the limit he could bear. He couldn't help but secretly heave a sigh of relief.
The moment the dimensional gateway stopped expanding, a foul aura began to spread out from the black hole.
Crackling sounds could be heard from the depths.
All the calm was broken the moment a giant claw reached out.
"In that case, Lord Emissary, I'll have to trouble you for the next step."
