Oh no! I, the weakling, have become the villain!

Chapter 646 Resistance

"What should we do? Is our Qingyan City going to be destroyed?"

"We are not reconciled! We cannot stand by and watch the demons slaughter our loved ones; we must resist!"

In an instant, everyone shouted excitedly, their faces filled with grief and indignation, clearly furious about the demon invasion.

Xu Yao remained silent as he looked at everything before him. He didn't speak but quietly observed these people, wanting to know what they would do.

After observing for a while, I finally understood their plan.

"Is your goal to send me into battle?" Xu Yao asked calmly.

"That's right, the demons have already invaded our area, and we must stop them."

"Only by stopping the demons can we win," said the envoy from Qing Teng City.

"Unfortunately, I don't intend to participate in this battle."

The envoy from Qing Teng City flew into a rage upon hearing Xu Yao's refusal.

"Do you know what you're doing? This concerns the lives of hundreds of thousands of people," the envoy from Qing Teng City said angrily.

“Of course I know, but I don’t think there’s any chance of winning this war,” Xu Yao said.

"What a fool! Do you know how dangerous this world is? Do you know how many enemies we have here?"

The envoy from Qing Teng City spoke coldly.

"Are you questioning my abilities?" Xu Yao sneered.

"You're not questioning me, you're questioning the outcome of this war," the envoy from Qing Teng City said disdainfully.

"Hehe." Xu Yao smiled slightly.

“Although I don’t know how many people you have here, you certainly don’t have more than 500,000,” Xu Yao said confidently.

"What do you mean by that?" the envoy from Qing Teng City asked, frowning.

"It doesn't mean anything. I just wanted to say that there are countless monsters in this world, and the demon race is just one of them."

"Although our human race is relatively weak, we are numerous. Even if you bring together the entire human race, you may not be able to withstand the demon race."

"We humans are the most resilient race in the world. We are not afraid of anyone or anything," Xu Yao said.

"Hmph, that's quite an elegant way to put it, but how do you know that the demons aren't ordinary demons?" the envoy from Qing Teng City said.

"You have many experts here, and our strength is inferior to yours."

"We have no way to fight against the demons; we can only rely on this Qingyan City for defense," Xu Yao said helplessly.

“That’s better than sitting here and waiting to die,” said the envoy from Qing Teng City.

"There's nothing we can do about it; you were the ones who chose this path."

"If you hadn't provoked the demons first, how could the demons have attacked us?"

"And don't forget, you now occupy Qingyan City."

"The Qingyan City you are now protecting once belonged to our Qingyang City."

"Your occupation of Qingyan City is an insult to our Qingyang City," Xu Yao said coldly.

Xu Yao's words startled the envoy from Qing Teng City. He had been so focused on finding reinforcements that he had overlooked this issue.

"Are you from Qingyang City?" the envoy from Qingteng City suddenly asked.

"You don't need to know who I am. In short, Qingyan City will not send troops now," Xu Yao said coldly.

The envoy from Qing Teng City was furious, but he was powerless to do anything about Xu Yao.

"Okay, I'll do as you say."

"But if you lose this battle, the city lord of Qing Teng City will definitely not let you off the hook," the Qing Teng City envoy said viciously.

"You now have only two choices: surrender or die."

"If we surrender, we civilians might not survive. After all, the demons don't allow prisoners; they will kill us."

"The envoy from Qing Teng City spoke slowly."

"I disagree," said the city lord of Qingyan City.

"This is the only way. The demons are now closing in on Qingyan City. We must find a way," the envoy from Qingteng City continued to persuade.

“No, if it’s really like you say, then we’d rather die,” said the city lord of Qingyan City.

"Since that's the case, then you can do whatever you want. I won't keep you company," said the envoy from Qing Teng City.

"Where are you going?" the city lord of Qingyan City asked.

After finishing his speech, the envoy from Qing Teng City turned and left.

"Listen to me, everyone. If you trust me, I can help you fight against the demons. You can stay and help us," said the city lord of Qingyan City.

"We don't believe you. You are not worthy of our trust at all."

“We don’t need anyone’s help,” the people from Qingyan City said.

The envoy from Qingyan City left the city gate; he had to report the situation in Qingyan City to the people of Qingyang City. The people in Qingyan City were in complete chaos.

"Lord, what should we do? If no one helps us, Qingyan City will probably be destroyed by these cowards."

A young man said with concern.

Xu Yao shook his head after hearing this. These people really don't understand politics.

Qingyan City is indeed in a bad state right now, but that's precisely why the demons haven't attacked it immediately.

After all, this place is too far from the demons' lair. If the demons attack, these people will have no chance of escaping, and they won't even have a sliver of hope.

There is still hope for Qingyan City, because it is very close to human territory.

Moreover, when the demons attack the human race, they will definitely encounter some powerful monsters, so even if the demons want to retreat, it will not be easy.

Because these monsters are not just human; other demons will also be attacked by them.

“You don’t believe us, but I want to remind you that demons are not ordinary monsters,” Xu Yao said.

“Although there are many of those monsters, they are no match for the demons at all. No matter how strong they are, they are still no match for the demons,” Xu Yao continued.

After hearing Xu Yao's words, the city lord of Qingyan City pondered for a moment and realized that what Xu Yao said made a lot of sense.

When the envoy from Qingyan City looked at Xu Yao, his eyes darkened. He knew he had no other choice.

"Since you want to die, then do as you please," the envoy from Qing Teng City said before preparing to leave.

“If you want to acquire resources, I can tell you how,” Xu Yao suddenly said.

"Oh, really? What are your conditions?" The envoy from Qing Teng City stopped and asked.
