The Lord Demon King is Unfathomable!

Chapter 1557 445: The Sword Saint's Resolve (Part 2)

Selas nodded slightly, speaking in a tone tinged with regret, as if making a difficult decision.

"Perhaps she is not destined to be with us, we can only send her, stubborn and unrepentant, to meet her so-called Pseudo-God."

The Sword Saint arriving at Sparrow Wood Territory is a problem.

But since he hasn't gone to see that "Holy Daughter", and has chosen to camp at Wheat Field Village tens of kilometers away, it seems he is also suspicious of the so-called "Holy Daughter's" identity.

Since that's the case, let the Ratmen assassins go first.

They will absolutely have no misgivings.

...

At Sparrow Wood Castle, Luo Yan opened his eyes, filled with surprise.

"...Sword Saint?!"

In my territory?!

He did indeed notice the Rock Inn at Wheat Field Village, and the swordsman carrying the great sword, but he never associated this person with the legendary Rock Sword Saint.

After all, the span is indeed too great; no one would think a man appearing as a mercenary could actually possess demigod strength!

Luo Yan has seen the imperial demigods at the Holy City, such as the renowned Marshal Laco, whose aura and style are much superior.

Moreover, during this period, the strange individuals arriving at Wheat Field Village are more than just that guy; there are plenty of men with stories written all over their faces.

There are disgraced nobles pretending to escape as farmers, and farmers pretending to be nobles to swindle, even ones claiming to be the "Divine Son" himself and "Second Saintess".

He has noticed, directly or indirectly, not just the great swordsman.

Once a piece of land loses order, all kinds of monsters and demons will spawn.

As Luo Yan quietly pondered, Youyou's urgent voice and the creamy mist emerged together.

"Lord Demon King! It's bad, the Sword Sword Sword Saint is only tens of kilometers away from you now! What should we do?!"

"Why panic? There are still dozens of kilometers." Luo Yan glanced at Youyou floating beside him, calmly saying.

Although he actually felt a bit anxious inside, it didn't stop him from wearing a relaxed expression.

Actually...

There's really nothing to panic about.

That Sword Saint has been staying at Wheat Field Village for nearly a month, if he wanted to do anything, he wouldn't wait until now.

Luckily, he had steadied himself earlier, not directly using the "Butterfly of All Things" to swap places.

Otherwise, if he suddenly appeared in front of the Sword Saint, he'd have to put back on the "Prince Colin" disguise he just slipped off.

As for not making a move, that's impossible; if half of the players were killed, he'd intervene personally. As much as the players' gaming experience matters, he couldn't possibly let Chaos Apostles massacre his people.

That said, this demigod-level Sword Saint's prowess is astonishing, managing to finish off the Chaos God's Selection with a single move.

Not even using a Domain!

It's worth noting that as the Chaos God's Selection, though only in strength, he's already superior to the demigod-level under Saint Sis's Faith System.

"...But Lord Demon King, what if the Sword Saint comes knocking?" Youyou couldn't help asking quietly, seeing Lord Demon King's indifference.

Luo Yan replied calmly.

"Why rush? Isn't there still the Holy Daughter?"

Youyou: "...But, but he's a demigod! She's just an ordinary person; can she manage?"

Luo Yan chuckled lightly, speaking calmly.

"Perhaps before she couldn't, but after my training... she's already more than capable."

An ordinary person might even become an advantage.

Her soul bears no mark of his own, even less so the Sword Saint, or Saint Sis himself, could see anything.

Moreover, the Sword Saint is very courteous to ordinary people, this in some ways resembles himself.

If she's lucky, she might even win the Sword Saint over to the Salvation Army's side, or at least help them clear some obstacles.

Youyou gazed in shock at the composed and seemingly in-control Lord Demon King, a surge of admiration rising involuntarily.

Indeed, worthy of being Lord Demon King.

Hiding behind a woman's again...

...

With the death of the "Executioner" Ah Ka, the rebel army outside Wheat Field Village, frightened by the Sword Saint's reputation, surrendered, throwing away their weapons. Yet anyone could see the lurking defiance behind the fear.

Clearly, they haven't repented for their crimes, simply thinking they're doomed, thus taking off their headscarves.

How to deal with nearly five thousand captives became the ensuing issue.

Some players proposed turning them into Corpse Ghosts, the safest way, and gaining some experience on the side. However, the majority felt this was too extreme because these NPCs seemed quite human, making it a pity to kill them.

Regardless of their suggestions, finally, it depended on the decree of the Holy Daughter, who consulted the Divine Son behind her.

The merciful Flame King, after a brief contemplation, decided to give these ordinary people, blinded by Chaos, a chance.

Outside Wheat Field Village, near the riverside lumberyard, nearly five thousand individuals huddled on the open ground, anxiously looking at their surroundings.

At this moment, they resembled sacrificial cattle or sheep, lacking any of their previous swagger.

Salvation Army soldiers, gripping grass forks and firearms, encircled them tightly, prepared and vigilant.

Although until a few months ago, both sides were still in the same camp, they now serve different masters.

If the Holy Daughter gave the order, the Salvationists, blinded by bloodlust, wouldn't hesitate after eating their fill for several days.
