Chapter 379: Prompt Reinforcement

The Demon Emperor heading to the Dong City was none other than the gold serpentine crocodile. Standing on his back were Xiang Shaoyun, Devouring Ghost, Du Xuanhao, and their hostage, Tai Kang. The group had gone straight to Dong City after Devouring Ghost's breakthrough.

When Devouring Ghost sensed what was happening in the city, he told Xiang Shaoyun, "Young master, a group of Emperors are fighting ahead of us. Looks like that girl's clan is not doing very well."

"Are there any Sovereigns participating in the battle?" Xiang Shaoyun asked with a frown.

He had also sensed the fierce battle ahead of them. Although his senses were not as sharp as Devouring Ghost's, he was able to sense enough to see that the Dong City was under siege.

Despite that, he maintained his calm and did not rush over recklessly. If there was a Sovereign there as well, he would not be able to help Dong Ziwan. It was not that he was afraid of death, but charging right toward a Sovereign was simply stupid. Both Devouring Ghost and Du Xuanhao were still not strong enough to fight Sovereigns. Going over if there was a Sovereign would be tantamount to suicide.

That was the reason for Xiang Shaoyun's question.

Devouring Ghost frowned and focused for a bit. He then smiled and said, "No Sovereigns. In fact, there aren't even any peak Dragon Ascension Realm cultivators. The strongest are only some ninth-stage Dragon Ascension Realm cultivators, and the rest are Emperors of different stages. I can handle them."

"Good. Let's not delay, then. Go!" Xiang Shaoyun commanded.

"Young Master Xiang, you can't join the battle of Emperors. How about we go into the city and take a look? In any case, we need to figure out which of them are the actual Dong Clan members since we don't know them," suggested Du Xuanhao.

"Oh, that's not a problem. We can just ask him." Xiang Shaoyun gestured at Tai Kang. "Point out the members of the Tai and Xing Clans."

Tai Kang was now under Xiang Shaoyun's full control. Thus, when they approached the battlefield, he started pointing out the members of the Tai and Xing Clans without any hesitation.

"Things are looking bad for the Dong Clan," Du Xuanhao sighed.

"A clan with this strength is merely an early tier-5 organization," said Devouring Ghost with contempt.

"Alright. Devouring Ghost, Big Brother Du, time for you to get some exercise. I only need Jin Wo by my side," said Xiang Shaoyun.

Devouring Ghost had reached the eighth-stage Dragon Ascension Realm and was confident he could now battle peak Dragon Ascension Realm experts. As for Du Xuanhao, he was a peak seventh-stage Dragon Ascension Realm expert. With his saber intent, he could easily kill those of the same stage and put up a fight against those above his stage. As long as there were no Sovereigns present, Xiang Shaoyun believed that they would be able to bring the two enemy clans a nice "surprise".

"Good. Only through battle will I be able to adapt to this body faster," said Devouring Ghost with a smile, his battle intent surging.

He then turned into a specter and rushed into the battlefield. Du Xuanhao's battle intent was also surging. Like a sharp blade that had left its sheath, he stabbed straight into the battlefield. After he had begun cultivating the Scorching Sun Manual and Eighteen Scorching Sun Sabers he had obtained from Xiang Shaoyun, his strength had grown considerably. He was becoming impatient to test his current combat prowess.

Devouring Ghost and Du Xuanhao joining the battlefield changed the tides of battle yet again. Using powers of darkness and light, Devouring Ghost attacked, sending out two different colors
