The power of Grotto-Heaven Masters erupted, and monstrous airwaves sent countless demonic beasts flying.
The six Grotto-Heaven Masters were like a reliable Great Wall, blocking the demonic beast army outside the human continent.
It had to be said that the six Grotto-Heaven Masters were comparable to an army of a million humans, and the effect was even better.
If they had stepped out earlier, the human race wouldn't have experienced so many hardships.
Of course, this was mainly because the Demon Realm didn't expect human Grotto-Heaven Masters to attack so directly. Otherwise, the Demon Emperor of the Demon Realm wouldn't sit back and do nothing.
Under normal circumstances, Demon Emperors and Grotto-Heaven Masters only existed as deterrence forces. It was actually very rare for them to fight.
After all, be it Demon Emperors or Grotto-Heaven Masters, they were pillars of their respective races and wouldn't take action easily.
Now, the six Grotto-Heaven Masters had appeared on the battlefield without any warning.
The Demon Realm didn't expect this to happen at all.
Therefore, it was originally the Demon Realm army attacking the human race. But now, it was the human race attacking the Demon Realm.
The million-strong demonic beast army was forced back a hundred kilometers by the six Grotto-Heaven Masters.
By the time Demon Emperors of the Demon Realm rushed over, the battle was already over.
Facing the six Grotto-Heaven Masters, the Demon Emperors could only stare at them. No Demon Emperor dared to start a war without permission.
The spectacular sneak attack ended just like that.
...
At this moment, Zhou Shu had already returned to the Xu Ling Grotto-Heaven from the Lu family.
After proposing marriage to Emperor Yuan Feng and Lu Wenshuang's parents, the two women could finally officially stay by his side.
Ever since Zhou Shu returned from ancient times, this was the first time he had time to be alone with the two women.
During this period, they were like blazing fire and dry wood, like a welcome rain after a long drought.
Yang Hong, Sun Gongping, Mi Ziwen, and the others tactfully gave Zhou Shu two days.
It wasn't until the third day that everyone gathered in the Xu Ling Grotto-Heaven again.
"Your Highness, peace has already returned to the borders. With the six Grotto-Heaven Masters presiding over things, there shouldn't be any demonic beasts breaching the borders for the time being."
Mi Ziwen first told Zhou Shu about the current situation at the border between the human race and the Demon Realm.
Zhou Shu nodded. "Big Brother, brothers, I won't bother saying niceties. I'm back. Great Wei will continue as usual. This is the foundation you built—"
"Your Highness!" Yang Hong said.
"Let me finish," Zhou Shu interrupted Yang Hong. "I understand what you mean, but you should know that I'm not interested in being an emperor. I don't know anything about handling state affairs.
"Everyone risked their lives and fought together. We have to give them a future. You have all managed Great Wei very well."
Zhou Shu smiled. "Of course, I'm not saying this to draw a line with you. In the future, we will still be comrades fighting side by side.
"Everyone, although our current situation doesn't seem bad, I want to tell you that the demonic beasts of the Demon Realm have never been a threat to the human race. There is an even stronger enemy behind them.
"That enemy is the one who may bring us a calamity."
Mi Ziwen said grimly, "I have long suspected that there is a mastermind behind the demonic beasts. As expected..."
He had long had some suspicions about the Demon Realm's troop deployments.
It was just that there had been no evidence.
Now that he heard Zhou Shu's words, he finally understood.
"Your Highness, who is our enemy?" Yang Hong asked curiously.
"The enemy is from beyond the heavens," Zhou Shu said.
Everyone was already Grotto-Heaven realm experts and qualified to come into contact with the truth.
He told them about the enemy from beyond the heavens.
After hearing this, everyone fell silent.
Originally, they thought that since Zhou Shu had returned and subdued so many Grotto-Heaven Masters, they could finally rest easy.n0VeLusb.c0m
But now, they discovered that they had been frogs at the bottom of a well.
The demonic beasts they had always treated as enemies were only cannon fodder.
It was this cannon fodder that exhausted them over the years. The real enemy...
Everyone's hearts sank.
Since Zhou Shu was so serious, it meant that the enemy was really difficult to deal with.
"Yao Qing, you faced the enemy from beyond the heavens back then. Tell them what the enemy is like," Zhou Shu said.
Fear flashed across the eyes of Yao Qing.
Everyone's hearts skipped a beat.
Everyone had seen Yao Qing's strength. He could even kill a Grotto-Heaven Master.
What kind of existence could make him feel fear?
"The enemy from beyond the heavens is very strong," Yao Qing said solemnly. "The weakest among them are at least at the Grotto-Heaven realm. The strongest are even stronger than Grotto-Heaven Masters.
"And there are countless of them. It's impossible to stop them."
In Yao Qing's previous life, Bai Yue had been trapped outside the world after mending the heavens. Later, he had died at the hands of the enemy from beyond the heavens.
After everyone listened to Yao Qing's story, their hearts became heavier and heavier.
"I'm telling you this because I want you to know the truth," Zhou Shu said.
"You don't have to react like this. If there are enemies, we'll just fight. They want to invade us. We can't just sit back and wait for death.
"Since the ancient races could defeat them, so can we. Our human race is stronger than back then."
