The Villain Pleads With the Heroine To Kill Him

Chapter 45: Heavy Losses, This Protagonist Is Too Unlucky

After a quarter of an hour, only 30 of the 40 demon powerhouses escaped, and 10 died.

The three months of training had come to an end. The elders of the many sects and families stood calmly outside the ancient battlefield, waiting. They were all hoping that the juniors in their sects and families would benefit from this training.

This was the moment they looked forward to the most whenever their juniors entered the ancient battlefield. Everyone was curious to see which sect or aristocratic family would come out on top in this trial.

Suddenly, the barrier at the entrance trembled. Then, a group of people rushed out from inside.

Seeing that someone had come out, the people waiting outside were excited. About an hour later, more than 200 people had walked out from inside.

Strange, why did so few people come out?

I remember that there were more than a thousand people when they opened the barrier. Why did only two hundred people come out?

Among the 200 people who came out, only 16 people from the Sky Sword Sect came out, 15 people from the Thousand Puppet Sect, 20 people from the Weapon Refining Sect, 9 people from the Pill Sect, and 13 people from the Buddhist Sect.

Only the Xiao family had the most people. The other families also had a few people, and some of the younger ones did not come out at all. Of course, no one from the Holy Maiden Sect came out.

Whats going on? Why did so few people come out this time?

Why did no one from the Holy Maiden Sect come out? The Second Elder, who was in charge of welcoming the disciples of the Holy Maiden Sect, was confused.

Seeing that no one answered, Xiao Yichen suddenly spoke, Elder, Yichen let the Holy Maiden Sect down this time.

Nephew Yichen, whats going on? The Second Elders expression changed.

The people around them also looked at them curiously.

Elder, this time, there were demon powerhouses who entered the ancient battlefield. In fact, the leader was a branch of the demon race, Ji Lie. This person is in the Nascent Soul Realm.

What Nascent Soul Realm? How did someone in the Nascent Soul Realm get in? Someone could not help but be surprised.

He is indeed in the nascent soul realm. As for how he got in, we dont know.

The Demonic Sect cultivators he brought with him formed 15 small teams. Each team had 20 people, 11 Golden Core Realm cultivators and 9 Core Formation Realm cultivators.

At first, we didnt know what was going on. The scattered people were killed by them one by one. Later, we realized something was wrong and gathered into two groups.

One team is led by me, and the other team is led by Junior Sister Qingcheng.

This Ji Lie is too cunning. We fell into his ambush and suffered heavy casualties. The last time, our two groups joined together to fight them to the death, we were able to get the upper hand and chase them all the way.

Unexpectedly, they secretly left a card up their sleeves and prepared forty late-stage Golden Core experts to deal with us.

When I saw that the situation was not good, I retreated with my people. Junior Sister Qingcheng and the disciples of the Holy Maiden Sect did not leave. After that, we lost contact.

Im afraid that Junior Martial Sister Qingcheng and the others are already dead!

He was thinking of Ye Qingcheng, the woman he loved. Unfortunately, she didnt know when to back down. He might have died also if he hadnt retreated!

Hearing Xiao Yichens words, the Second Elder of the Holy Maiden Sects face darkened. She felt as if she had aged ten years in an instant. A hundred elite disciples of the sect were gone just like that.

There were also Ye Qingcheng and Qin Lu. They had thought that these two would shine in the cultivation world in the future. They did not expect that they would be gone just like that!

The more she thought about it, the sadder she felt.

Seeing the Second Elder of the Holy Maiden Sect like this, everyone showed sympathy on their faces.

However, at this moment, the barrier trembled again. Then, one figure after another rushed out. One person, two people, three peoplethere were a total of fifty-two people.

Seeing these people, the Second Elder, who was originally heartbroken, suddenly showed excitement on her face. Qingcheng, youre finally back. You scared me to death.

Sect Elder, Im sorry for making you worry!

Its okay. Its good that youre back.

Sect Elder, the enemy this time was too strong. I couldnt bring more disciples out. I feel ashamed of myself, Ye Qingcheng said apologetically.

However, her words were exceptionally harsh to the ears of the crowd. Because among all the sects and families, the Holy Maiden Sect had the most people coming out.

Even she felt ashamed. The others might as well find a hole to hide in.

Junior Sister Qingcheng, youre still alive. Thats great! Seeing that Ye Qingcheng was not dead, Xiao Yichen hurried over. His expression could not hide his excitement.

But before Ye Qingcheng could speak, a disciple of the Holy Maiden Sect sneered, Senior Brother Xiao, were all alive. You must be very disappointed!

Uh, how could that be? Im more than happy that youre all alive!

Senior Brother Xiao, if we were willing to stay and fight with us, perhaps more people would be alive. Unfortunately, Senior Brother Xiao is timid and afraid of death, so he retreated with his people.

Hearing the words of this disciple of the Holy Maiden Sect, everyone looked at Xiao Yichen strangely.

Seeing that Xiao Yichen was being scolded, a disciple of the Xiao family said unhappily.

Little girl, what do you know? At that time, Ji Lie brought dozens of demonic cultivator experts who were in the late stage of the Golden Elixir Realm. If we fought head-on, more people would die. Retreating was the best way!

Speaking of which, how did you all survive? Could it be that you colluded with the demonic sect?
