176 Surely he will die
Faced with the questions of several family heads, Ye Haotian answered them one by one in addition to concealing the matter of rebirth.
The chaos caused by the secret of Ye Haotian's body slowly returned to calm.
The eyes of the masters who looked at him again were full of admiration and pride, and even the tone of their words changed.
"Ye Gongzi, you just said that one of the reasons why the Demon Clan captured you was that you were able to become a sacrifice to open the spatial passage, so what is the other reason?" Xu Changqing asked respectfully.
"Strength. The Demon Soul can greatly increase the strength of the Demon Lord. ”
Thinking of the words that Ying Jiu said during the battle in the afternoon, Ye Haotian added: "It will also be effective against some demon clans who rely on devouring to improve their strength. ”
"Devour, how to swallow?" Su Ning'er, who had been stunned for a long time, finally relieved herself and couldn't help asking.
"What do you say?"
Ye Haotian squinted at Su Ning'er with a little depressed eyes, thinking to himself that you are either killing or swallowing, it seems that you will not be happy if you don't kill me.
Su Ning'er asked, "Just eat it?"
"Pretty much. Ye Haotian nodded and teased, "What, are you hungry again?"
"Not hungry. Su Ning'er replied without thinking about it, and continued: "Then if I eat you and absorb your power, will the demon soul be destroyed?"
Hearing this, several pairs of eyes staring at Ye Haotian suddenly lit up, and soon dimmed again.
"You can't destroy it. Zhuzhu, who had never spoken out, interjected: "Even if Ye Haotian is eaten, he can only absorb part of the power, and the demon soul will find a new host." ”
"How do you know?" asked Su Ning'er as she turned her head to look at Zhuzhu.
"Because ......" Zhuzhu looked at Ye Haotian hesitantly, and said to Su Ning'er very seriously: "I know." ”
Zhu Zhu's voice was very calm, and this answer was also very unreasonable, but everyone who heard it did not have the slightest doubt in their hearts, as if her words were oracles, the most refined and pure truth in the world, even Su Ning'er stopped making a sound after a sigh.
Time passed slowly, and as the mystery of Ye Haotian's identity as the son of the Demon God was solved one by one, the thoughts of several masters quickly returned to reality.
"Ye Gongzi, Lord of the City, the demon army is still outside the city, and it may attack the city at any time, how to fight in the next battle?" Yu Hua straightened his waist and asked loudly, not only him, but also several other family masters were arrogant when they heard that they were going to fight, revealing a fearless spirit that looked at death as home.
Ye Haotian looked at Xu Heihu, and his heart suddenly became extremely heavy.
The identity of the son of the demon god was his biggest secret, and in normal times, he would not confess to these family heads anyway. He was able to say it without concealment tonight, because he didn't want the family masters in front of him to die too confused, because he knew that the next time the demon army attacked the city, any resistance would be useless, they would all die, not only them, but all the defenders and civilians in the city would not be able to live.
Seeing that Xu Heihu, who had been silent, was also staring at him, and he didn't mean to speak, Ye Haotian was silent for a long time, and finally said what he thought in his heart.
"In the next battle, I don't have any confidence, no matter how I fight, the city will be broken, and we, and all the people in the city, may ...... will all die. ”
......
......
The chamber was quiet, and everyone's mood became heavy, as if a mountain had suddenly been pressed.
They already knew this result, but they didn't want to think about it, and they didn't dare to face it, they hoped to get a glimmer of hope from Ye Haotian, even if it was self-deception, it could make the time of waiting for death feel better, unfortunately, this guy who was fortunate enough to be favored by the gods didn't seem to have learned the mercy of the gods, how could he tell the truth?
Just as everyone's faces gradually showed a look of dazed and disappointed, an old and hoarse voice suddenly came from outside.
"It's going to die, I don't think so. ”
With the voice, a tall, thin old man in a dark robe with a slightly curved back walked in from outside.
"Uncle. ”
Seeing the visitor, several heads of the family all greeted them, and their attitudes were extremely respectful. Xu Heihu also got up from his chair and stepped forward to salute.
Ye Haotian was stunned, he didn't expect Zhang Laoqi, the owner of the coffin shop, to be so respected, he didn't have time to think about it, and he also stepped forward and saluted: "Uncle Qi, why are you here?"
The old man didn't even look at the family masters, his eyes fell directly on Ye Haotian, as if he knew him for the first time, he looked up and down a few times, and a rare smile of approval appeared on his cold old face, and said: "Son of the Demon God, four thousand city citizens have won the battle against the eight thousand demon army, which is amazing." ”
Seeing that this old man with a gloomy face all day long could laugh, Ye Haotian felt a little nervous inexplicably, and a scene on the drum tower in the afternoon suddenly appeared in front of him, and hurriedly said: "Uncle Qi, you are even more amazing, if it weren't for your drum sound to boost morale, the city might have been broken a long time ago." ”
"Uncle Qi, is there anything wrong with you coming to the City Lord's Mansion so late?" Xu Heihu gave the old man to his seat.
"I just want to tell the city lord and a few family heads that the coffins in my coffin shop are no longer enough. The old man said lightly, his voice full of great dissatisfaction.
Xu Heihu paused for a moment, quickly understood what the old man meant, and said guiltily: "Uncle Qi, we have done our best, don't worry, if the demon army wants to enter the city, it will have to step on the corpses of my Xu Heihu and several family heads, as long as we live, we will never let the children and women in the city be hurt in the slightest." ”
"Yes, Uncle Qi, we are not afraid of death. Yu Hua said.
"Yes, we have made up our minds, the city is in the people, the city is dead!" Yan Sha said.
"Uncle. Xu Changqing stood up, bowed deeply to the old man, and said slowly: "You are the oldest elder in Quicksand City, although no one has been in the army for several generations, but after all, you are the descendants of the Quicksand Army, the military soul of the Quicksand Army has not been lost, and the ancestors of the family dare not forget, now that the demon army is besieging the city, the disaster is at the head, I believe that the people of the city will never disgrace the ancestors......"
Halfway through the words, Su Ning'er pulled the corner of Ye Haotian's clothes and asked in a low voice: "This old man, what are you talking about, what quicksand army, why can't I understand, is it very powerful?"
Without waiting for Ye Haotian to speak, Xu Heihu next to him answered: "Then there is no need to say, of course it is powerful, it is the strongest demon slaying army in the Great Xia Kingdom!" When he spoke, Xu Heihu's face was full of pride, and his dim eyes exuded brilliance.
"Is it?How strong is the most powerful demon slaying army?Is it more powerful than the gold-armored fire cavalry in Anyang?" Su Ning'er bypassed Ye Haotian and came to Xu Heihu's side and asked.
Xu Heihu snorted and said disdainfully: "What is the Golden Armor Fire Cavalry, compared to the Quicksand Army, it is not worth mentioning. ”
"Blow it, you'll be there. Su Ning'er had a feeling of being deceived, and said: "Everyone in the Fire Cavalry is a cultivator at the peak of the Three Realms, and the armor they wear is also an extremely precious three-rank emperor costume, my father said, it is the most elite top army in the Great Xia Kingdom." ”
