Chapter 237: Chapter 234: Boss Covers the Rear

"Alright! Rush there and back! I’ll keep him contained here, giving him no chance to escape."

Seeing firsthand that his maximum output had no effect on Illidan, Mochel became even more cautious.

Moreover, he understood his second brother’s character; at a time like this, if he said he would fetch reinforcements, he truly would. This guy is too proud to use such an excuse to escape.

"Just contain him; don’t attempt to kill him. You won’t be able to."

As he was leaving, the Second Prince gave a careful explanation. He worried that these Yellow Springs Demons were too eager for quick success, and if they experienced massive losses like them, even if he brought reinforcements, it would be useless.

"Rest assured, our race excels at arrays. To trap him... Damn!"

Mochel was originally full of confidence, but before he could pat his chest and assure them, the Yellow Springs Demon King, who had trapped Illidan based on the formation, fell again with two more figures, looking thoroughly dead.

"Not good! He’s attempting to break through. I must summon reinforcements immediately!"

Demigod’s fall is accompanied by anomalies, and the Second Prince naturally could see the situation on the field. Seeing Illidan casually slaying Demon King level experts of the Yellow Springs Demon race amidst encirclement, his expression drastically changed, and he quickly fled without another word.

After the Second Prince had left, the Eldest Prince Mochel commanded his race’s demigods to form a new formation with a gloomy face. No matter how he tried to change the formation, there would still be occasional falls of one or two demigods.

Mochel could see that Illidan, trapped inside, didn’t understand arrays at all. Because he hadn’t found any weak points in the arrays, he was randomly picking a couple of lucky demigods to send them to hell.

"Damn it! How can he be so strong?"

Mochel cursed in frustration. His formation was not only for encirclement; it also connected numerous Demon King-level powerhouses to jointly output power.

But every time they combined their attack, Illidan would smash it with his magic staff, and except for a bit of ripple blowing the corner of his magic robe, it couldn’t harm him at all.

"Adjust the formation! Change from a confinement array to a killing array!"

Seeing that they seemed to have encircled Illidan, but in reality, only they were suffering losses, Mochel quickly became restless.

Since the mainly confining array could not affect him, they might as well switch to a killing array. Not seeking to kill him, but to make him exhausted from dealing with their attacks, as the best defense is offense.

However, after sacrificing eight demigods, the Yellow Springs Demons adjusted the array but still did not achieve the desired effect.

Although Illidan in the center of the array was undergoing overwhelming attacks, he remained calm and was still able to unexpectedly kill a demon or two while fending off their onslaught.

"Damn it! Quick, Mitchell, please come back! Otherwise, we really won’t be able to handle him..."

Seeing his strongest team constantly dwindling, Mochel nearly crushed his molars.

Initially, he had never thought that the siege of a pseudo-Demon Emperor would be like this. If he had known, he would have brought the legion along earlier. Though losing some pseudo-Demon King-level power from the legion’s support through a combined military force didn’t bother him, these genuine Demon King-level experts were definitely the core force of his Great World destruction, and losing each felt like a heart-wrenching pain.

Perhaps the heavens didn’t align with the demons, for while Mochel closely monitored the situation, eagerly awaiting his second brother to return with reinforcements, the first ones he met were not Purgatory Demon race’s demigod experts, but the first was led by the seven great demon kings along with the Dark Demon and Chaos Demon races’ experts. 𝘧𝘳𝘦ℯ𝓌𝘦𝒷𝘯𝑜𝑣𝘦𝓁.𝒸𝘰𝓂

"Hey! Surprised or not, expected or not?"

The head of a young lady peeked into Mochel’s illusionary array from outside. Her first look was at the Demon Dragon Emperor’s eldest prince with a somber expression. He was their old rival; ever since they rose, the two princes of the Demon Dragon Emperor were their biggest threats.

If it weren’t for them being at the critical juncture of the Great World’s destruction, unable to return to the Demon Realm’s main world, their invitation to Lynn would have occurred earlier.

Of course, they actually only found Lynn recently, as the previous year saw no trace of him in the entire Miracle World, so even if they wanted to be early, they couldn’t manage.

"Gluttonous Demon King Betty Russell... Truly, only you could possibly break my illusion array..."

Seeing the young lady’s head that reached inside the array, Mochel said coldly.

The seven great demon kings had unique demon natures, six of which posed no threat to him, but the gluttonous demon nature was the exception.

The reason was simple; her capacity was so vast that as long as she didn’t fear overconsumption, she could devour the demonic qi of an entire city at once.

While his illusion array could deceive all demons, it required demonic qi to operate, and even if the Gluttonous Demon King couldn’t break the illusion herself, as long as she opened her huge mouth and wildly devoured, she could always ingest his "array-using demonic qi", following the source straight to him.

"Why are you alone? Did Mitchell kick the bucket?"

Previously, they fought against Purgatory Demons along the way, so logically, the enemy bigwig they bumped into should have been the Second Prince Mitchell, but how come after searching, they ran into Mochel, the eldest prince controlling the Yellow Springs Demons, which didn’t add up.

"Mitchell is currently leading the Purgatory Demigods to encircle from the rear. Are you here to deliver yourselves to death?"
