""…""

An eerie silence soon spread across the battlefield outside the barrier, as the four remaining Domain Lords all froze upon seeing the soul being devoured by the demonic rat without any chance of escape.

It had to be known that the Domain Lord who had just died, was someone at the Fourth Stage of the Domain Lord Realm!

No matter where in the Sky Empire such a person went, he could be considered a Peak Expert that few people could even hope to contend against, yet such a person had died!

Even worse, he had died in an extremely pitiful manner, being devoured by the demonic rat without even having the chance to put up the slightest resistance…

Roar!

Having devoured the Domain Lord, the demonic rat let out a triumphant roar as its aura grew even stronger.

Roar!

Glancing over towards the four Domain Lords who had frozen upon witnessing the death of one of General Guan subordinates, the demonic rat let out another roar as it arrogantly looked down towards them.

Clearly, the demonic rat no longer viewed the four remaining Domain Lords as a threat!

Not only that, but the two strongest Domain Lords, General Guan and Zi Hui, both had a cautious expression on their faces as they faced off against the demonic rat.

At this point neither of them dared to take a chance to escape from the demonic rat, as it would leave an opening for the demonic rat to attack them. Especially given that their main escape path had been blocked by the giant barrier covering the capital city of the Iron Sky Kingdom…

"…"

Staring at the demonic rat roaring arrogantly towards them, General Guan could not help but look over towards the remains of what could be considered his second strongest subordinate with a depressed expression on his face.

Thinking about how many resources he had spent and just how hard it had been for him to nurture that subordinate, General Guan felt another wave of depression hit him. Among the four Domain Lords left, General Guan was by far the most depressed of all of them, as he honestly had no idea how he had ended up in his current situation…

Nothing had gone as planned! And he had even lost one of his only two Domain Lord subordinates! Even if they managed to deal with Yi Min, General Guan already felt that it was no longer worth it for him… At this point, General Guan just wanted to leave the Iron Sky Kingdom!

Roar!

Sadly, he already knew that was not possible before dealing with the demonic rat in front of them.

"Are we not just taking care of this demonic rat for Yi Min…?" Muttering this to himself as he watched the strengthened demonic rat charge over, General Guan felt even more depressed.

Not only did he have to fight with some terrifying demonic rat, but given the fact that the demonic rat was located in the Iron Sky Kingdom, it would likely have attacked Yi Min if he and the other three were not there…

Just why did this demonic rat show up now…?

Having still not fully grasped why the demonic rat had even showed up in the first place, General Guan utilized his domain and unwillingly began to fight with the demonic rat once again. Even bringing out some of the trump cards he had saved up for dealing with Yi Min, to deal with the demonic rat before it devoured someone else and grew even stronger…

Boom!

BOOM!

Soon enough, both General Guan and Zi Hui began working together seamlessly, as both of them launched attack after attack towards the demonic rat. Immediately creating several enormous craters several dozen meters deep in the ground.

"What is this-"

"Argh-!"

"No-"

Even hitting several of the underground tunnels where the miners and workers had been hiding. Instantly killing them in the process, as those realizing what was happening quickly made their way deeper into the ground to hopefully find somewhere safe before the fight on the surface reached them.

"…"

Looking at the fight outside the barrier suddenly increase in ferocity, Xuan Hao felt a bit surprised as both General Guan and Zi Hui seemed to work perfectly together. Driving back the strengthened demonic rat without letting it gain the slightest advantage.

All of a sudden, General Guan and Zi Hui were the ones controlling the battle as the demonic rat looked like the helpless one, that was constantly being driven back.

Roar!

Feeling more and more wounds accumulate, the demonic rat roared full of anger as it broke free from the darkness domain of Zi Hui that had momentarily restrained it before swinging its tail over towards General Guan who was coming in for an attack.

"Why me again?"

Whoosh~

Barely able to finish what he wanted to say as the giant rat tail hit him with a terrifying force, General Guan was sent flying through the air once again.

Bang!

Crashing face first in the barrier around the capital of the Iron Sky Kingdom.

Looking in through the barrier, General Guan spotted Xuan Hao sitting on top of the wall silently watching as he slid down the side of the barrier.

"…"

"…"

Thump~

Landing on the ground, General Guan remained quietly on the ground without rushing back to join Zi Hui in fighting back against the demonic rat.

To be honest… After seeing Xuan Hao sitting on top of the wall on the other side of the barrier watching as he and Zi Hui were fighting, General Guan realized that he had not thought about what might happen after they finished of the demonic rat.

Would Yi Min really let them go after they had exhausted most of their strength fighting against the demonic rat?

As he thought about this, General Guan suddenly realized that he might not be able to leave the Iron Sky Kingdom…

No! I have to find a way out!

"Zi Hui!"

"Hm?"

Contacting Zi Hui who was currently fighting against the demonic through his divine sense, General Guan directly informed him about their current situation and brought up his worries regarding what would happen to them after they had finished off the demonic rat.

"This is indeed troublesome… Hm… I have a plan, but I don't know if you would be fine with it…"

"You have a plan!? What is it?!"

"It's like this…"

Showing an excited expression, the moment he heard that Zi Hui had a plan, General Guan was not the least bit worried about anything. Instead, being more excited over the fact that he would be able to get out of his current precarious situation alive.

However, his excited expression soon disappeared, and a frown replaced it. The plan Zi Hui had come up with would definitely be able to get them out safely, but… The cost was way too great!

"Are you really sure that this is the only way…?"

"Yes, I'm certain we will be able to get out like this and we might even be able to deal with Yi Min at the same time as this!"

"Alright… I will inform my subordinate about the plan…"

Responding back to Zi Hui in a slightly reluctant tone, General Guan soon informed his subordinate, while Zi Huo informed the elderly Domain Lord about the plan.

The two of them both showed a surprised expression on their faces before solemnly nodding their heads and getting into position.

During the short conversation that Zi Hui and General Guan had through their divine sense, less than a second passed, as they began implementing the plan that Zi Hui had come up with.



"Hm? Looks like they are up to something…"

Observing the fight from behind the barrier on top of the city wall, Xuan Hao instantly realized that the people outside were up to something as he prepared himself just in case.

No matter how strong the barrier around the capital was, Xuan Hao did not dare to let his guard down, as he began to closely observe the movements of the four Domain Lords.

"They want to force the demonic rat to attack the barrier!?"

Seeing the two weaker Domain Lords move just beside the barrier, Xuan Hao could not help but frown as he watched how Zi Hui, and General Guan slowly began to lure it closer and closer to the barrier.

If he was not wrong, they would lure the demonic rat close to the barrier, where the two weaker Domain Lords would get its attention and… Get attacked together with the barrier…?

Tilting his head to the side, as a confused expression appeared on his face, Xuan hao suddenly felt that there was something wrong with what was happening outside the barrier.

Watching as the two weaker Domain Lords suddenly began violently attacking the demonic rat, Xuan Hao felt even more confused as he watched how the two weaker Domain Lords just continued attacking without a care in the world.

Almost like they did not see large claws of the demonic rat currently swiping down towards them…

Just how do they plan to escape that attack!? If they could truly dodge the attack and get the demonic rat to destroy the barrier for them…

Xuan Hao felt even more nervous as he thought about this. Focusing his full attention onto the two weaker Domain Lords. Wanting to see just how they planned to escape from the claw swipe of the demonic rat and have it attack the barrier for them....
