บท 455: This Is No Victory

"Fall back! Retreat!"

Shi Hou faltered for a moment before continuing his escape with his near-death lord. Despite losing his arm and his horns, he did not stop running. And his voice was even greater than before, overtaking every other voice and sound. 

Huo Shen and Ao Shuang stopped mid-air, no longer chasing at Ling Xue. 

They looked at each other before glaring at the Yao Princess. 

"This isn't over." 

They turned away and returned to their clans, retreating from the fight. She watched them go, breathing heavily as the crimson aura dissipated. The flute fell to her side as the Yao Demon descended down to her clan. 

"Princess! Are you okay?" the clan members asked. 

She nodded while her eyes continued to stay on them. 

"Yes, I'm fine. Of all the clans to have joined them, I didn't expect it to be the Huo Clan and the Ao Clan. Those two are mad", she muttered. 

"Are we giving chase?" they asked.
