Chapter 596: The Wolf Smoke Regiment (2)All the demons inside the village suddenly turned and scurried in the sound’s direction.
Originally thinking they were doomed, the Blaze Army soldiers clenched their swords and gaped as they watched the demons’ hasty retreat.
“What’s going on?”
The demons’ abrupt withdrawal was completely beyond their expectations.
Nevertheless, they quickly recovered their senses. Holding those two children, they rapidly made to escape.
Upon reaching the village pathway—they were dumbstruck by the sight before them.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtA petite figure was standing upon a flying sword high up in the air. She was holding a white bugle horn half the size of a forearm and blowing into it at a moderate pace. Legions of demons looked like they were attracted by some kind of force and surged toward the sound—emptying the village within seconds.
“It’s… it’s the General of the Wolf Smoke Regiment…” One of the Blaze Army soldiers detected with his keen eyesight—that figure in mid-air was Ji Fengyan, the Wolf Smoke Regiment General who just arrived yesterday!
“The Wolf Smoke Regiment…” The Blaze Army were dumbfounded. They didn’t know why would the General of the Wolf Smoke Regiment be appearing here.
As they remained in a daze, a team of men suddenly barreled over from the right side.
The Blaze Army soldiers instinctively raised their weapons. However, they realized on a closer look that the men before them were wearing shabby coats of armour.
Among the three armies, only the Wolf Smoke Regiment’s uniform would look so scruffy.
“Blaze Army?” The leader of the Wolf Smoke Regiment team asked the group.
The Blaze Army soldier started a little before nodding.
“Just this many of you?” The leader glanced over the rest of the Blaze Army troops.
The Blaze Army soldiers face turned ashen. They had over a hundred men before encountering the demons. In just half a day, an entire village had perished, while only a few of their own men were left.
Seeing their reactions, the leader understood the situation. “I am the Wolf Smoke Regiment’s Deputy General, Linghe. We were under orders to rescue you. Please follow us.”
With that, Linghe turned around to lead the Blaze Army off.
The Blaze Army troops regained their senses and asked, “But… your General, she…”
If they were not wrong, Ji Fengyan was alone at the spot where the demons were gathering. And Linghe actually wanted to lead them in the opposite direction to escape. Wouldn’t they be abandoning Ji Fengyan and letting her fight the demons on her own?

He just smiled and gazed at that solitary figure flying in the wind. “Our General alone is enough.”
The Blaze Army men thought that the Wolf Smoke Regiment must be insane. Although the village was not huge, at least a thousand demons had been hidden inside!
Otherwise, their hundred-strong team would not have fallen into such dire straits.
The soldiers felt something was off but didn’t have time to ponder this further under the pressing circumstances. They could only hurry after Linghe and company to escape from this dangerous area.
The congregation only stopped after Linghe led the Blaze Army soldiers and those two children out of the village.
“Is there anyone else alive in the village?” Linghe suddenly asked.
The Blaze Army men shook their heads solemnly.
