Beastmaster of the Ages - Chapter 7307

Chapter 7221: Running Away Midway?

“His existence is strategically significant; no one can replace him!”

“If he can end the dispute between the three deputy generals, it will reduce casualties among the Demon Extinction Army brothers. And if he goes into battle, he can draw a lot of firepower, further reducing our casualties. This double reduction is practically salvation for us…” “

Actually, if he truly took command of the entire army, it would be a great benefit to us. It’s just a pity that the three truly influential figures in the Demon Extinction Army are still vying for power…”

Among the lower-ranking soldiers of the Demon Extinction Army, some began to silently speak in support of Li Tianming .

Although still a minority, this voice spread to the higher ranks, reaching the watchtowers where the deputy generals and border generals were located!

Wei Qingyu silently observed the two people beside him regarding these opinions that leaned towards Li Tianming.

Jiu Yang remained expressionless, neither sad nor happy, while Yu Mo subtly tapped his other forearm with his index finger, seemingly lost in thought.

Meanwhile, most of the seven border generals were pondering what this shift in opinion towards Li Tianming within the Demon Extinction Army represented.

“General Qin, what do you think of Li Tianming?” a young Star Clan general suddenly asked.

Qin Kuang, the lion-headed general beside him, glanced at his side and said calmly, “I, Qin Kuang, always judge by the matter, not the person. I must say, this newly appointed War God’s Demon Legion is indeed very useful, and extremely useful! If his abilities are used well, they will definitely benefit the entire Demon Extinction Army; this is a blessing for the Demon Extinction Army.”

At this moment, Jiang Guxu, with his white hair and beard, squinted at the battlefield and slowly said, “His abilities are good, but in my opinion, he’s a bit too impulsive. But considering he’s still young, it’s alright; he has room to grow.”

The other generals, including Chanyu, looked at Li Tianming with changing expressions.

For them, who became the War God was unimportant, and who was behind Li Tianming was also unimportant.

Ultimately, on the surface, Li Tianming’s Dao Companion was also a powerful figure from an outer sect, so it wasn’t appropriate for them to interfere in the core of the Demon Extinction Plan.

However!

At this moment, Li Tianming’s performance, which significantly reduced casualties among the Demon Extermination Army, earned the respect of most of them.

This power belonged to him, to the disciples of the Heavenly Emperor Sect—that was the most crucial point!

Meanwhile, some of the border generals openly expressed their opinions, discussing the matter without regard for the three deputy generals before them.

For the seven border generals, the most important things were their own safety and the safety of the Heavenly Emperor Great Wall, so they had no conflict of interest with Li Tianming.

The three deputy generals acted independently, each restraining the other, but the seven border generals shared a common goal and banded together for mutual support, so they naturally had no fear of the deputy generals.

At this moment, Li Tianming’s bravery in facing the beast tide alone had already reversed many people’s perception of him as a ‘coward.’

Chanyu stared blankly at the white-haired youth fighting alone among the ancient demons.

“This War God Li isn’t cowardly at all! Facing a level three beast tide alone, that’s boundless courage! Who else in the Heavenly Rank 8 can do that?” Chanyu exclaimed.

At this moment, many members of the Demon Extermination Army were also utterly shocked by the scene before them.

“So, Li Tianming wasn’t actually cultivating at the Star Palace these past three years; he’s been keeping a close eye on the defenses of the Heavenly Emperor’s Great Wall.”

“Perhaps this entire demon army was something he prepared over those three years; otherwise, how could it be so astonishing?”

They didn’t know the principle behind Li Tianming’s summoning of the Primordial Ghosts, so they couldn’t help but speculate in this direction.

“He doesn’t show any weakness in battle; instead, he steps forward without fear!”

“At least in terms of courage, I completely admire Li Tianming; he’s truly amazing!”

In an army, anyone who can bravely kill the enemy on the battlefield gains the recognition of many.

Especially on the Heavenly Emperor’s Great Wall, the members of the Demon Extermination Army value courage and strength even more!

Therefore, seeing Li Tianming single-handedly confront the beast tide, the Demon Extermination Army couldn’t help but marvel.

However, at this moment, the battle between the beast tide, mainly composed of ancient demons, and the Primordial Ghost army intensified.

As the battle progressed, Li Tianming’s demon army seemed to be losing ground!

The two sides were initially locked in a stalemate, but now the beast tide seemed to be gradually eroding Li Tianming’s Primordial Demon army!

On the Heavenly Emperor’s Great Wall, wherever everyone’s gaze fell, the gray portion composed of Primordial Demons was gradually diminishing like a receding tide!

At this moment, the balance between the fallen and newly summoned Primordial Demons on the battlefield seemed to have been broken!

Meanwhile, the Demon Extermination Army on the city wall, along with the border generals, leaned forward slightly, their eyes wide.

The three deputy generals, after a moment of slight surprise, smiled.

“War God Li is about to collapse!”

“His army seems to be being devoured bit by bit. Once the demons are completely consumed, he’s finished!”

“Without the support of the demon army, if he were caught in this beast tide, he would surely die!”

“What should we do? Should we go out of the city to support him?”

Because of Li Tianming’s performance, some people had actually changed their minds slightly and were starting to consider him one of their own.

But many others sneered, “He overestimated himself, challenging the Demon Nest alone. He brought this upon himself; why should we risk our lives for him?”

These words caused many wavering members of the Demon-Slaying Army to suddenly stop their thoughts.

Ultimately, they had no real connection with Li Tianming. In fact, due to their respective lieutenants, Li Tianming wasn’t even on their side; they were, in a sense, enemies.

Moreover, without orders to leave the city, they were even less likely to support him.

Li Tianming continued to fight amidst the beast tide, his figure appearing and disappearing among the ancient demons.

A single sword strike could annihilate a large number of ancient demons below the seventh level of Heavenly Fate Reincarnation.

Or, with a full-force attack, he could annihilate an immature eighth-level Heavenly Fate Reincarnation.

This level of power was roughly equivalent to Li Tianming’s mid-level Heavenly Venerable strength.

Even now, with the demon army somewhat weakened, he still cleaved through the demons, weaving through the spray of demonic blood!

As everyone watched this scene, eager to see how Li Tianming would perish…

Li Tianming’s figure disappeared from everyone’s sight and never reappeared!

This time, it wasn’t that his view was obscured by the enormous body of the Primordial Demon; rather, he truly vanished!

Seeing Li Tianming disappear from the battlefield, everyone’s pupils constricted.

The entire Demon Extermination Army was bewildered, and many speculations arose.

“Where is Li Tianming? How could he just vanish like that?”

“Could he have been torn apart by the Primordial Demons, his divine origins trampled?”

“No, although the Demon Legion is in decline, he should still be able to protect himself. At least he wouldn’t die so quickly…”

This speculation was quickly dismissed, as the remaining Primordial Demons were still fighting.

If Li Tianming were dead, why would they still be fighting so intently?

Thus, another speculation surfaced, and in everyone’s minds, it was closer to the truth!

“Could he have escaped?”
