Chapter 389: Chapter 18 I Want to Go Home (Two in One)_5
He suddenly turned around, his footsteps trampling amidst the wave of demons, charging towards Dragon City:
"All of you, die, die..."
From his eyes burst a cruel red light, slaughtering his way into the city.
And as his body underwent a horrifying transformation, a vast change also emerged within Dragon City.
Li Hao saw Li Tianzong, who had turned back to kill, wreathed in a sky-high Demonic Qi that was even more fearsome than that of the Grand Tao of Peace Realm, towering like a Demon God.
As he stepped over Dragon City, all the soldiers who had been diligently fighting the demon wave suddenly came to a halt.
Then, they all emitted billows of black Qi from their bodies, resembling demons or specters coming back to life, joining the wave of demons and turning to slaughter the city's civilians.
Those civilians also started to emit black Qi, transforming into demons, destroying buildings and houses everywhere.
Li Hao hovered mid-air, witnessing this sudden horrifying change, and was completely dumbfounded.
It was just the invasion of the demon wave before, but now, even the soldiers and civilians of Dragon City had turned their weapons, becoming demons!
Is this the true difficulty of breaching the Mo River?
Li Hao felt a bone-chilling coldness, a taste of bitterness.
The task of guarding Dragon City for ten days would usually show such transformations by the eighth or ninth day, even on the tenth day.
Even if they cooperated with everyone to hold Dragon City, in the end, they would still have to face the transformation of all the soldiers within, including Li Tianzong's transformation.
Why would this happen?
Li Hao could not comprehend how anyone could overcome such difficulty.
Even the Grand Tao of Peace Realm would be impossible!
Roar! Roar!
At that moment, terrifying roars echoed throughout the city.
Those soldiers who were initially fighting the demons now had black light shining from their eyes, riding on the backs of the very demons they had previously considered mortal foes, destroying and demolishing everything within the city.
Moreover, a multitude of demons, as if going mad, started converging towards Li Hao.
"Hao Er!"
From a distance, Li Xiaoran's figure swiftly approached, equally shocked by this scene.
Now, almost the entire city had fallen.
Except for the Divine General Mansion, where the Array had yet to shatter.
Outside the Divine General Mansion, the sky and earth were covered in demons and transformed soldiers, and now it seemed that the only protectors left were Li Hao and Li Xiaoran.
Just the two of them to face all this and protect Dragon City, that was the real challenge.
Li Hao wanted to laugh, but couldn't. He knew that the Mo River at the ghostly-tier was perilous, but this was his first time truly feeling it.

No wonder his second uncle said that even those at the Four Stands Realm should not easily enter a ghostly-tier Mo River, as it was very easy not to return...
"So this is it..."
Li Xiaoran came near Li Hao, staring at the swarming demons from all sides, his face turning pained and bitter as he seemed to understand.
"The final battle for Dragon City confronts us with the resurrected obsession of our elder brother..."
"Turns out what we ultimately have to guard is our elder brother..."
He felt grief, an obsession turned demonic.
His elder brother's life-long obsession had been to protect Dragon City, but in death, it had instead become the greatest threat to protecting the city by the Mo River.
Watching Li Tianzong approaching step by step through the void like a Demon God, Li Xiaoran said sadly:
"Elder brother, wake up, we've come to take you home!"
Li Tianzong's stride seemed to pause for an instant, but it was only a very faint moment before he continued stepping forward.
On his shoulder, chest, and back, multiple ferocious demon heads grew, mocking and looking down at Li Hao and Li Xiaoran with disdain:
"Prepare to stay here as part of this burial ground, to accompany your elder brother, for none of you shall leave."
"He will never wake up again, you're all going to die!"
"No one is leaving this Mo River, stay and join us!"
Amid their cold mockery, Li Tianzong's eyes glowed fiercely red as he stepped forward, his mouth murmuring as if chanting:
"I must protect Dragon City, no one shall approach, I will lead all the soldiers home, I want to take them home..."
"I want to... take them home!"
His eyes ablaze with red light, his body emitted an Abyssal demonic aura, far surpassing the demonic power of the Grand Tao of Peace Realm.
Li Xiaoran roared in sorrow, "Elder brother, the battle of Dragon City ended long ago, only you did not return, only you did not return!"
Boom!
Li Tianzong suddenly raised his hand, launching a terrifying bolt of lightning.
Li Xiaoran didn't even have time to react, seeing only a blur before his eyes, but Li Hao noticed it, his expression changing rapidly as he hurriedly raised his sword to strike.
Sword Qi shattered the thunderous intent.
Li Hao shielded Li Xiaoran behind him, looking up at the towering Li Tianzong taking giant strides like a hundred-zhang Demon God, and whispered to Li Xiaoran at his back:
"Fourth Uncle, step back and let me try."
"Hao Er, what are you going to do?"
Li Xiaoran couldn't help but look at him, his eyes filled with sorrow, nothing but despair.
This despair wasn't about dying here, but rather about Li Hao dying here, about their elder brother being trapped here forever, unable to replace release.
Who else could take their elder brother away from here and back to the family shrine, if they were to perish here?
Li Hao said nothing, just quietly watched Li Tianzong as he drew ever closer, his grip on his sword tightening.
Flashes of the past two months crossed his mind, including the low words from last night's banquet.
"If only you were my son..."
Li Hao's energy surged wildly, and at that moment, he opened himself completely, allowing the Power of Heaven and Earth to flow through him unrestrained.
"Since you wish to go home, allow me to pave a section of the road for you."
"Let's see if my life can be exchanged for..."
Li Hao said softly, taking a step forward.
This step was toward death, but also toward an unprecedented extreme, transforming into the utmost pinnacle of immortality!
He had no other choice, to not battle was to die, and rather than such an end, he chose to stake his life in a final gamble!
