The Good for Nothing Seventh Young Lady
Chapter 2645: Humans Will Never Be Slaves (2)

The flames of war were heating up. Apart from the Barren Land, the fighting in the other four countries was also continuing.

Under the fierce offensive of the devil army, the defense lines of the various countries were constantly shrinking to the rear, and the foreign allies that were cooperating with human beings continued to attack the devils.

On the battlefield in the Barren Land, the fighting was long and tragic.

Shen Yanxiao received news from the front line that the twelve devil generals were going to attack, but their targets were not the rulers of the major races. Instead of approaching the five main cities, they extended their claws to the city lord of each big city.

In the short span of two days, more than ten city lords were killed by the devils that had snuck into the cities; even the city lords’ families were affected: they were almost completely destroyed.

Shen Yanxiao was furious.

If you want to fight, fight fair and square. What did it mean for a group of powerful devil generals to specially run to abuse their city lords?

Inside the hall, Du Lang silently watched Shen Yanxiao as she laughed her extreme anger out. Since the war began, no matter how fierce the situation was, Shen Yanxiao had always maintained absolute calmness while she commanded the overall situation; today, however, their lord was really enraged.

"If I don't give them some color to see, they would really think my Barren Land is easy to bully, huh." Shen Yanxiao's clenched fists made a cracking sound.

She had always known that the Devil Race was formidable, so she had adopted a war of attrition to weaken the devil army. And even if the twelve devil generals made their moves, she was prepared. But she never expected that the twelve devil generals would target the city lords of each city.

According to the news from Silver Hands, the twelve devil generals had been trying to force the city lords to disclose the entrance to the underground passage.

To be on the safe side, all the entrances to the underground passages had been moved long ago. In addition to the city lord of each city, there was no second person who knew where the entrance to this passage was. Once the city gate was forced open, the city lord would lead the rest of the fighting forces to safety through the underground passage as soon as possible.

After fighting for quite a long time, the devils could not have failed to discover the existence of this underground passage, but when they invaded the city, the underground passage of that city had been blown up already; they could not get more clues.

The twelve devil generals were targeting the city lords, partly because they wanted to get information about the underground passage.

The Barren Land had strong defenses. Shen Yanxiao's war of attrition had already played a great role. It was impossible for the devil army to advance to The Rising Sun City in a short period of time at a normal speed, so they thought of other methods.

The city lords became their method to seize a breakthrough.

The good news was that, so far, no city lord had told the devil generals the location of their underground passage.

The underground passages of the Barren Land were still safe.

But this behavior of the devils had truly angered Shen Yanxiao.

"Lord, calm down." Uncle Jiu said.

Looking at Shen Yanxiao's expression, he felt that something bad was going to happen.

"Don't worry, I won't mess things up." Shen Yanxiao narrowed her eyes. If she continued to allow the devils to misbehave like this, there would be more and more losses. The city lords would be killed and, without a new leader to replace them, the city would not be able to organize an effective defense when attacked by the devil army, and no one would lead the people to enter the underground passage after the gate was broken.

Even if the devils could not find the underground passage, it was already a headache for the deployment of the city’s defense to be disrupted. If Shen Yanxiao would just let them continue doing this, she would not be Shen Yanxiao.
