"Regiment Commander!"Several Battalion Commanders, along with the warriors under their command, turned to Regiment Commander Yan in unison, their eyes filled with shock and disbelief.The predetermined target was Demon Cave Number Two, but now they were suddenly changing course to attack Demon Cave Number One—this was tantamount to pushing the First and Third Battalions, who were deep inside Demon Cave Number Two, towards certain death!Everyone knew that more than one Sixth-Tier Demon resided within Demon Cave Number Two, and both Qin Tian and Li Wufeng were below the Sixth-Tier in strength.Just one Sixth-Tier Demon would be enough to completely crush two battalions.Even if Qin Tian possessed the ability of spatial teleportation, how many people could he save from the clutches of a Sixth-Tier Demon?Even the several Battalion Commanders, who Regiment Commander Yan had always held in high regard, were now full of surprise, clearly not expecting him to change his plans at such a critical moment."Regiment Commander!" The Sixth Battalion Commander looked at the increasingly distant outline of the Demon Cave below, and spoke anxiously, "Doing this—""This is a military order!"Regiment Commander Yan let out a cold shout, the pressure of a Sixth-Tier powerhouse sweeping across the entire Battle Group like a tangible force, his gaze sharp as a blade: "Whoever dares to question the order again, can go down and join them."As his words fell, the surroundings instantly became dead silent. Although the warriors dared not speak again, a shared sense of sorrow, like a rabbit grieving for a fox, rose in their eyes.Seeing this, a hint of sinister coldness flashed in Regiment Commander Yan's eyes.He entered Demon Suppression Abyss for one purpose only—to earn merit.Only immense military achievements could rapidly promote his military rank, making him the most dazzling presence among the younger generation of the Yan family in the military, and regaining the family's attention and resource allocation.Over the years, because of that incident, his lineage had fallen from being direct descendants to a collateral branch, and the resources they could divide plummeted.He himself, once the rising star of the family, surrounded by adoration, became a pitiful wretch in the eyes of others, someone who could be mocked at will.Those clan members who once bowed to him now dared to humiliate him publicly; those elders who once saw him as unpolished jade now ignored him. Pain, struggle, despair—all eventually transformed into an unwillingness deep in his bones. He had to rise, even if it meant resorting to unscrupulous means, to reclaim everything that belonged to him.To quickly accumulate military merits, the most direct way was to destroy Demon Nests and Demon Caves.Demon Nests had a strict hierarchy; even the lowest-tier ones housed hundreds of thousands of demons, which was beyond what he could shake at present.Therefore, he set his sights on the Demon Caves.Near the Crimson Gold Battle Group's station, there were two Demon Caves.After his personal investigation, the number of demons in Demon Cave Number One had exceeded ten thousand—a Demon Cave of this scale must contain a Demonic Qi Rift.The Demonic Qi Rift was the source of the endless emergence of demons, and anyone who could destroy the rift would earn astronomical military merits, enough to promote him from Colonel to Senior Colonel.The secret treasure in his hand could destroy Demon Cave Number One and that Demonic Qi Rift, but after activating the secret treasure, he would fall °• N 𝑜 v 𝑒 l i g h t •° into a temporary period of weakness.Demon Cave Number One and Demon Cave Number Two were not far apart. Once the rift in Demon Cave Number One disappeared, the several Sixth-Tier Demons in Demon Cave Number Two would very likely detect the anomaly and rush to reinforce. At that time, even with Sixth-Tier powerhouses guarding him in his weakened state, it would still not be entirely safe.Therefore, he needed a force, a force strong enough to tie down the Sixth-Tier Demons within Demon Cave Number Two.Previously, he had never found a suitable candidate, which caused the plan to be delayed.However, with Qin Tian's arrival, things finally took a turn for the better.In terms of strength, Qin Tian alone could wipe out hundreds of demons with a wave of his hand, making him the strongest among all Battalion Commanders. Fifth-Tier Demons couldn't withstand a few heavenly lightning strikes from him, and even against a Sixth-Tier Demon, though he might not win, he could certainly hold it back for a moment.What's more, nearly a thousand warriors from two battalions combined were an irresistible feast of flesh and blood for Sixth-Tier Demons. This was enough to make them hesitate between investigating the anomaly in the Demonic Qi Rift and slaughtering humans.How could a great man have the kindness of a woman?As a commander, one should regard an army of thousands as mere chess pieces.As long as the Demonic Qi Rift could be destroyed, a small sacrifice was reasonable. Even if this matter were reported to the war zone headquarters, his plan would be flawless.Regiment Commander Yan looked at the demon-infested sky ahead, a cold arc forming at the corner of his mouth."Roar!"A roar filled with endless rage exploded from afar, the terrifying pressure unique to a Sixth-Tier Demon crushing through the canyon from over a dozen miles away. Li Wufeng and his soldiers all changed color, cold sweat instantly beading on their hands gripping their weapons."The Sixth-Tier Demon is out." Li Wufeng gripped his saber hilt, his knuckles white as bone, his gaze sharply sweeping towards the direction where the Crimson Gold Battle Group had assembled.According to the plan, reinforcements should have arrived by now. A Sixth-Tier Demon rushing into the canyon alone was a godsend opportunity for the Battle Group—as long as Regiment Commander Yan arrived in time with that Sixth-Tier expert, two against one to kill the demon, the subsequent plan to destroy Demon Cave Number Two would proceed much more smoothly.However, the next second, his pupils suddenly contracted like needles.The massive Battle Group, carried by the wind carpet, was moving across the skyline, but it was not heading towards the canyon; instead, it was directly turning to the other side."Yan Song!!!"Li Wufeng's furious roar exploded through the canyon, his eyes instantly turning blood-red.He had known that Regiment Commander Yan disliked the First and Third Battalions, so he had always been on edge during missions, fearing that the other party would tamper with the timing of support or the psionic bombs.However, he never expected that the other party would be so decisive—directly abandoning them to their deaths, letting nearly a thousand warriors face the fangs of a Sixth-Tier Demon!This was undisguised murder!At this moment, the other soldiers also clearly saw the distant wind carpet, and their faces instantly drained of color."Battalion Commander."The First Company Commander beside Li Wufeng clutched his arm tightly, his voice trembling, "What's going on? Is Regiment Commander Yan really abandoning us? What should we do?"The aura of the Sixth-Tier Demon was getting closer and closer, the air so hot it seemed about to ignite, the loose stones on the rock walls began to feel scorching, and even breathing carried sparks.Li Wufeng gritted his teeth, making a clacking sound, his forehead veins throbbing like earthworms, and finally, only a blood-soaked resolve remained in his eyes: "No other way,We fight! Even if we die, we'll tear a piece of flesh from this beast!"He roared frantically in his heart: Yan Song, just you wait! Even if I turn into a vengeful spirit, I will never let you go!Whoosh! The figure of the Lava Demon tore through the air, appearing above the canyon, the two fiery trails it dragged behind it scorching black marks across the sky. It flapped its fiery wings, looking down from above at the humans on the rock walls and the demon corpses scattered on the ground, its vertical pupils swirling with rage.Boom!The flames around its body suddenly boiled, and hundreds of fist-sized lava balls condensed out of thin air, each emitting a scorching temperature comparable to a small sun, illuminating the canyon as if it were daytime.The Lava Demon slowly raised its magma-covered palm, and those lava balls rose with its movement, ready to completely engulf the humans below at a single command.At this moment, a deep despair rose in the warriors' eyes. In the face of the absolute power of a Sixth-Tier Demon, they couldn't even put up a decent fight, only waiting for death like lambs to the slaughter.Some young soldiers had even closed their eyes, trembling uncontrollably.Just at this critical moment—bang!A dull thud came from overhead, like someone smashing a red-hot iron block with a giant hammer.The Lava Demon's massive body violently shuddered, half of its head exploding like a watermelon struck by a heavy hammer. Dark green blood mixed with scalding magma splattered across the sky, sizzling black holes into the rock walls where it landed.In an instant, everyone froze in place, staring blankly as the suspended lava balls lost control and, along with the demon's shattered remains, plunged into the valley with long fiery tails, exploding into a raging inferno deep within the canyon.Dead silence.The canyon walls were utterly silent, only the crackling sound of burning magma echoing.The warriors looked at each other, their eyes filled with bewilderment and shock—that was a Sixth-Tier Demon, how could it—just die like that?Who killed it?Li Wufeng stared intently at the demon's remains at the bottom of the valley, a hint of surprise and doubt flashing in his eyes.This wound—
