The Good-for-Nothing Seventh Miss - Chapter 673

Chapter 673: You Won’t Die if You Don’t Seek Death (4)

Pei Yuan furrowed his brows in deep thought.

Shen Yanxiao did not wait for an answer before she said, “Let me tell you the answer. At first, there were 30800 low-ranked demons, 6790 intermediate-ranked demons, and 231 high-ranked demons!”

The moment the numbers were revealed, Pei Yuan and the others’ expression slightly changed.

The number of demons in the five main cities of the Forsaken Land was indeed higher than ordinary cities. However, no one had really given it a count. But when Shen Yanxiao revealed the number thirty thousand, it stunned everyone.

Over thirty thousand demons! What a terrifying number it was!

In ordinary cities, the number of demons would not exceed a few thousand, at most it would not exceed ten thousand. The number of high-ranked demons would also be in the two digits. But even with such a number, it had caused the four countries a number of splitting headaches. Even at the cost of a large amount of money and manpower, they had barely managed to reclaim three cities.

However, the number of demons in Sun Never Sets far exceeded the total number of demons in the other three cities!

Not to mention that Shen Yanxiao had only brought over a hundred men into the Forsaken Land. In normal sense, it was basically impossible to reclaim a city in a single month even with a hundred thousand men!

Shen Yanxiao smiled, and as she looked at their astonished expression, she slowly asked, “Does the state teacher know how many demons there are currently in this city?”

Pei Yuan’s heart skipped a beat. He did not expect there to be so many demons here in the city, and even though he was unaware of how much Shen Yanxiao had managed to clear, it was hard for him to handle even if only ten percent remained. When he dared to claim that he would eliminate all the demons here, it was because Pei Yuan assumed there were not many demons left. He merely saw several high-ranked demons in the vicinity, so in his mind, it was not impossible to deal with them with his abilities and with the White Marsh’s assistance.

Shen Yanxiao’s expression at that very moment caused an ominous premonition to rise up from his heart.

Shen Yanxiao chuckled and said, “30800 low-ranked demons, 6790 intermediate-ranked demons and 231… high-ranked demons.”

Boom!

Shen Yanxiao’s words were similar to an atomic bomb dropping into Pei Yuan’s mind. The number of demons in the city was exactly the same!

“Impossible! I only saw a few high-ranked demons. Plus, the majority of this city is in ruins, so it is impossible to conceal so many low and intermediate-ranked demons. They are unable to transform so how could they avoid my detection!” Pei Yuan did not believe her. What she said was too terrifying and if it was true, not to mention eliminating them, all of them would just turn into food for these demons.

Shen Yanxiao suddenly relaxed and leisurely looked at the slightly panicking Pei Yuan before she sighed and shook her head.

“State teacher, since you know I dared to keep these high-ranked demons, how could you not believe that I have hid the rest away?”

“You!” Pei Yuan felt anything but calm. Shen Yanxiao’s current attitude was evidently different from her previous facade. Previously, that little girl had repeatedly tolerated their farce. However, she now revealed the relationship between her and the demons without any hesitation with an arrogant expression on her face.

The experienced Pei Yuan knew that this was a dangerous sign.

In fact, Pei Yuan who was known for his cleverness had unknowingly brought upon a huge disaster on himself and his group.

He should have never, ever mentioned a single word about demons.
