Chapter 873 862: Dark Elf Reinforcements
"Lord Wolf King! Something terrible has happened! Both princes have been kidnapped!"
In the central tent of the Snow Wolf Clan's military camp, a messenger soldier rushed in from afar, filled with fear as he knelt and shouted.
"What?! How did they find it there?!"
"That's impossible!"
The king of the Snow Wolf Clan stood up abruptly from the main seat, his eyes full of disbelief.
"Mr. Wolf, can't you just contact them over there to confirm? But I'm afraid by the time you do, the cold vegetables will be even colder."
"Oh, by the way, on Snowfield Star, no matter when, the cold vegetables are always cold, hahaha!"
Beside the king of the Snow Wolf Clan, a dark-skinned female elf laughed coquettishly, seemingly not taking the king seriously.
"Dark Elf Lady, please do not joke at such a time! Otherwise, I will consider the Dark Elf Clan our eternal enemies!"
The king's eyes were fierce as he looked at the female elf, his face menacing.
"Hehehe, both your sons have been taken away, how will you consider us Dark Elves your eternal enemies~ Unless you plan to live for a few millennia? The lifespan of your Snow Wolf Clan isn't that long, is it?"
The mocking smile of the Dark Elf Lady made the king want to stand up and fight her, but reality forced him to swallow his anger and kneel heavily before her.
"Forgiving Dark Elf Lady, please excuse my earlier excessive attitude. The Snow Wolf Clan will forever be the most loyal ally of the Dark Elf Clan."
"I... I also humbly request the Dark Elf Lady to... to assist me..."
In the end, the king of the Snow Wolf Clan admitted defeat. Unlike the Bloodthirsty Wolf Clan, they lived in the cold Snowfield Star Domain, where the temperature was below freezing year-round, a climate very unwelcoming to Outer Realm Life Remnants.
Moreover, the Snow Wolf Clan wasn't particularly powerful, so they hadn't been mentally invaded by the Outer Realm Life Remnants.
This situation left the king with no leverage when confronting the Dark Elves.
"Getting help from us isn't impossible. As long as I report to the higher-ups, you'll immediately receive reinforcements from the Dark Elf Clan."
"However... regarding the Youhua Grass we discussed earlier, we want seventy percent of it! And the rest must be prioritized for sale to us!"
The female Dark Elf seized the moment to make an outrageous demand, knowing the Snow Wolf Clan King had no one else to turn to.
"I... I agree!"
After a struggle, the king ultimately capitulated, realizing there was no alternative; the strength of the Dark Elf Clan far surpassed the Snow Wolf Clan.
And with help from the Dark Elves, the invaders would all perish on Snowfield Star! Their corpses would fertilize the Youhua Grass, thriving even better, making the seventy percent seem less daunting.
However, he failed to comprehend that even the Dark Elf reinforcements couldn't defeat Bai Yan, the Great Demon King!
"Very well, a pleasure doing business."
The charming appearance of the Dark Elf Lady made the king swallow hard, though her dark skin was difficult for him to accept.
The Snow Wolf Clan favored white-haired mates; the whiter, the more beautiful, a preference unchanged even for other species.
"A pleasure doing business..."
Although his expression was dour, a glimmer of hope was born in the king's eye, which Bai Yan, hidden in the void, detected thoroughly with his Divine Thought.
"The Dark Elf Clan? I've only seen the Elf Clan, curious about their connection?"
In the void, Bai Yan mumbled to himself, snowflakes drifting by his side.
Originally, he came to coerce the Snow Wolf Clan King into surrendering with force, hoping to also uncover news of the Outer Realm Life Remnants.
Yet clearly, he found something far more intriguing.
"In that case, I'll let you live for now. I'll observe the Dark Elves first, then let you understand true fear."
Bai Yan smiled, vanishing into the snowstorm without anyone noticing.
At three in the afternoon, Bai Yan returned to Demon Island and received a report about troublesome female elves on the battlefield.
Though their dark skin made them easily spotted in the snow, their combat prowess was formidable, ten times more powerful than even a proper Demon Warrior could just barely withstand.
Typically, it took four to five Demon Warriors to take down a single nimble Dark Elf soldier.
This infuriated Bai Yan, who trained his Demon Warriors not as toys!
"Order the Demon Warriors into full engagement!"
In the Central Hall, Bai Yan's directive echoed as he crossed the Rainbow Bridge, arriving once more on Snowfield Star.
Amid a bewildered battlefield, he spotted the dark-skinned Dark Elves darting across the snowy expanse.
The female Dark Elf soldiers, with their chests flat and uninterested, wielded magic Bai Yan realized was for battle purposes upon using his Divine Thought.
To Bai Yan, a brutish and meaningless ritual typifying lower civilizations, savagery, and disrespect.
Yet, in truth, the Dark Elf Clan's history was as long as the Elf Clan's.
They were erstwhile kin, split from the Elf Clan during a major crisis, cursed by them as they survived the Endless Star Sea.
Today, they've grown stronger, excelling in many areas beyond the Elf Clan!
Their dual-dagger close-combat abilities surpassed the Elves Bai Yan knew.
Yet now wasn't a time to admire Dark Elf beauty; Bai Yan's presence on the battlefield bolstered Demon Soldier morale, driving them against the Dark Elves and Snow Wolf Clan.
Remarkably, the 100,000-strong Dark Elf army nearly turned the tide, almost winning!
With Bai Yan's arrival, though, they fell back continuously.
Against the well-equipped Demon Warriors, aside from full-on attacks from top-tier beings, no force could breach their defenses.
Thus, the Dark Elf army fell, defeated by Bai Yan and his Demon Warriors.
Bai Yan himself remained airborne, visible to all, ensuring his warriors saw his presence.
This maximized their courage, battle intent...
When the Dark Elf army abandoned half their corpses and fled in panic, the standby Demon Island sprang into action!
