"Don't you want to die? Why are you running around on the battlefield?!"

Suddenly, a shout was heard from the surroundings. Ning Ye and Bai Jingze looked in the direction of the sound. A mound of earth appeared on the ground and a head popped out from it, carefully observing the surroundings.

"..." Ning Ye asked in surprise: "Battlefield?"

This person is lurking on the battlefield. Could he be a spy?

"The Holy Kingdom's army is fighting the Demonic Army, and this is the main battlefield!" The man crawled out of the soil, wearing the armor of the Holy Kingdom's army. He was covered in dust, but his eyes were bright and lively.

Because Bai Jingze was always in the habit of standing behind Ning Ye, the scout soldier first looked at Ning Ye: "Are you monks who came from other places to support the Holy Kingdom? That's great, the Holy Kingdom needs you, and the human race needs you too!"

Ning Ye was slightly surprised. "Have the two sides officially engaged in a war? Excuse me, where is this place?"

The scout said, "This is Fanglu County. Beyond that is the dragon vein. We must hold the Fanglu defense line. Once the demons break into the dragon vein, the Holy Nation will be completely destroyed!"

The dragon vein is the place where the national destiny converges. Once the dragon vein is lost, the country will no longer exist.

The dragon vein is located in the middle of the Northern Holy Land. What Ning Ye did not expect was that the demon army had already taken over half of the territory of the Northern Holy Land in just a few months.

The attack speed is too fast.

"Who is in charge of the defense on the Holy Kingdom side?" Ning Ye asked.

"The Human Emperor is seriously injured and unconscious. The one holding the situation is Crown Prince Shengping."

"Yuzhu..." Ning Ye already knew Yuzhu's identity from Bai Jingze, but when he heard that he was in charge of the situation now, he still found it hard to believe.

In her heart, Luo Yuzhu is still a gentle and introverted child.

Bai Jingze suddenly asked, "Who are the leaders of the demon clan?"

"Eight great demon generals," the scout replied, his eyes glancing at the young man who had asked the question. He suddenly realized that the young man had a striking appearance, but the demon mark between his eyebrows made him look even more sinister and menacing. He pointed at him in horror, "Demon... Demon clan! You, you..."

It was all because he had been focusing on the girl at the beginning, and he never expected that this seemingly righteous girl would actually be in the company of demons!

After a brief moment of shock, anger and hatred filled his eyes: "Damn demons, damn spies! You invaded my territory and killed my people. I will fight you to the death!!"

Ning Ye restrained the scout soldier, locked his arms behind his back, and said calmly, "Don't be impulsive. I'm not a demon spy, and the people next to me are not enemies."

The scout ignored her excuses and believed what he saw.

She travels with the demons and seems to have a close relationship with them. How could these two people not be spies?

It was a pity that he could not defeat the two of them. The power tied to his body was like a mountain, and he could not struggle at all. He stared at Ning Ye with red eyes and cursed:

"You are a human cultivator, how can you associate with the demons! Where's your conscience? Has it been eaten by a dog? Do you know that every time the demons capture a city, they kill people wantonly! They not only massacre the cultivators, but also ordinary people, and even capture women and children to refine magic weapons! They are an evil clan. Even if you are not their enemy, you should not associate with them!"

Ning Ye calmly endured the scolding. She knew that it was difficult to explain ordinary people's prejudices in a few words, especially when the two sides were still fighting.

However, the demons' practice of attacking and massacring cities does go against the laws of nature.

The balance in her heart began to tilt towards the suffering clan.

Bai Jingze was extremely embarrassed. Every word the spy said made his face paler. His hands hanging at his sides were clenched tightly.

This person said that the eight demon generals...

The demons came out in full force this time, with all ten demon generals dispatched, one of whom was his father!

Excluding the two demon generals imprisoned by Ning Ye, there are still eight left, which means that his father is still involved!

But he clearly said that he would no longer serve as the Demon General after taking revenge!

After the spy soldier finished cursing, he looked ready to die. A force of self-explosion emerged from his dantian, ready to drag the two men down with him.

Bai Jingze was startled, "Little Leaf, get out of the way!"

Ning Ye frowned, and quickly covered the spy soldier's dantian with a palm to forcefully calm his self-destructive power. At the same time, he took out an amnesia talisman and stuck it on the other's head.

The scouts fainted and would not remember seeing them when they woke up.

Ning Ye asked Bai Jingze to hide the scouts in his previous hiding place and then clear all traces nearby.

Clapping his hands, he said to him, "Let's go and find Yuzhu. It must be difficult for him to hold on alone now."

After walking a few steps and looking back, I found that Bai Jingze was still standing there, with endless wilderness behind him, and he looked all alone.

"Huh? What's wrong with you?"

"Sorry, Xiao Ye, I have to break my promise. I can't go with you from now on." The spy's words woke him up. He knew how much trouble it would bring her if he continued to follow her.

Ning Ye's eyes fluctuated, "Is it because of what that person said just now?"

She knew that beneath this boy's well-behaved appearance, he had a sensitive and delicate heart, and his life as a dependent made him particularly afraid of causing trouble to others.

"If you're afraid of causing trouble for me, then let me tell you, any trouble you have is not a trouble. We are a family, aren't we? Let me help you, okay?"

"Xiao Aze, the actions of the demons do not represent personal actions, and identity does not equal position."

"Just stick to your own righteousness. Don't overthink anything else, and don't worry about what others think. I believe many people will be able to distinguish right from wrong and eventually accept you like I did."

Ning Ye thought, if I said this, I should be able to persuade him, right?

Bai Jingze knew that she was doing this for his own good, but the more she loved him, the more he couldn't be a fledgling that didn't grow up.

He walked over, leaned over, hugged her gently, and let go.

"Xiao Ye Zi, I know I used to act naively and impulsively, causing trouble for you and everyone else. I won't do that anymore. I won't act on emotion anymore. The demons' recent deployment is suspicious and seems to have some alarming purpose. I want to sneak back and investigate thoroughly. I also want to stop the demons from wantonly slaughtering innocent people in their rear."

If possible, he would also like to persuade his father to end the war.

But the possibility of this happening is too small, so just think about it.

Ning Ye thought about it and agreed with his plan. "Well, then I will too..."

Bai Jingze shook his head, stopping her from saying anything. "I can do this alone. Besides, Yuzhu might need you more."

What he didn't say was that if he could be accepted by the human race one day, he hoped it would be because of his own actions.

Ning Ye pondered for a long time, seeing his determined expression, "This is very risky. Have you really thought it through?"

Bai Jingze nodded, "I will be careful."

Ning Ye stopped trying to dissuade him, but couldn't help but sigh, "Sure enough, the ones with two legs are not as obedient as the ones with four legs."
