If these demons hadnât kept their beast forms, many wouldâve thought that humans still ruled the area.
In mere moments, they drew close to the group of tied-up humans. Now that they were closer, the two
were able to recognize them. They were, in fact, the people who stayed at the Death Inn. There were
quite a lot of them, eighteen to be exact. However, these people looked pathetic. They were all
decorated with colored ribbons, and some had even lost their limbs.
These people were just different animals to those demons, just like how humans treated pigs as
livestock. The roles had merely reversed here. More importantly, they lacked the strength to defend
themselves.
Smack!
Slapped by a demon, a young teen tumbled over. After that, the demon punched and kicked him. âWhat
the hell? Who gave you permission to pee where ever you want? Do you think this is the toilet? Get up
and lick the floor clean, or we will eat you right now!â
The teen was devastated. At this point, he had lost all hope and wanted to die a swift death.
With a loud yell, he lunged towards that demon, hoping to take it down with him. However, it was all just
wishful thinking. The young teenâs cultivation level was far weaker than these demons, and he was
immediately subdued.
The teen lay on the ground, filled with despair.
It was then that he noticed Albert and Maximilia standing on the roof, hiding in the dark. She signaled to
him not to expose their location and that they would think of a way to save them.

Unexpectedly, that teen started screaming. âLook! Humans! There are humans up there! â
âWhat?â The two were confused.
âHas this guy lost it?â
It caused many demons to look towards the house. Some winged ones even flew up in the blink of an
eye.
âRun!â
Maximilia yelled as she retreated with Albert in her arms. To their demise, she was still slower than the
flying demons.

As they were about to be caught on, she stomped onto a roof with her bare feet, sending hundreds of
tiles up into the air. She then slammed them with her palm as they shot toward the demons like
meteorites. Still holding Rowan, Maximilia jumped to the ground, escaping through the densely packed
buildings with all her might.
Rowan,
Alex,
Unable to help, Albert could only curse the teen under his breath.

Maximilia said, âThat guy doesnât want to live anymore, but heâs a selfish bastard. Since he figured that
itâs hopeless, he wishes to take everyone down with him, including us.â
Whoosh!
Just then, a demon crawled out of the ground. Albert seemed exhilarated to see it. âItâs the golden
phoenix scorpion!â
Albert
Alex
They were here for the scorpion, so it was unexpected that it showed up on its own.
Maximilia said, âWe canât fight here. Letâs just lead it away.â
Albert thought about a place where the strategist had set a formation up in the past and immediately
told Maximilia to go there.
