"But if His Majesty were to find out that this was our dereliction of duty and that we were deceived, resulting in such heavy losses, our fates would be bleak." A shark demon grandmaster had a grave expression.
The other shark demons nodded. Even if they thought with their knees, it was obvious that if the shark demon king were to find out that they had been tricked by Xia Ping, they would obediently hand over the palace's treasures.
All of them would probably have to die to appease the shark demon king's anger.
"Since that's the case, we can't speak the truth. Just say that we were indeed threatened by Xia Ping. He buried a nuclear bomb in the city and we had no choice but to agree to his threats."
A shark demon grandmaster said in a deep voice.
"That's right. We can say that we fought a battle of wits and courage with this shameless human. Finally, we managed to protect the entire city from this evil human. This is a meritorious deed."
"That's right. Let's just say it like that. That way, even His Majesty can't blame us."
"Let's say it like that. Remember, we have to speak in unison or we will all die."
Many shark demon grandmasters immediately decided to conceal a portion of the truth. Otherwise, they would probably be used as scapegoats by the enraged shark demon king and be torn to shreds.
Following that, they immediately used their communication devices to contact the shark demon king who was thousands of kilometers away.
…
At this moment, hundreds of kilometers away from Giant Island, in the sea demon coalition's base camp, many demon kings had gathered. They were attending a banquet, watching beautiful demons dance and drinking fine wine. They were very happy.
At this moment, a shark demon hurriedly walked in with a flustered expression. He went directly to the shark demon king's side and whispered a few words into his ear.
"What?!"
After hearing this, the excited Shark Demon King couldn't help but shout, "You're saying that son of a bitch Xia Ping actually drove a warship into our Shark Demon Clan's city and even conveniently looted all the treasures in our palace? Plundering everything?!"
With a bang, he could not help but slap the stone table in front of him. Instantly, it shattered into pieces and a shocking crack appeared on the ground.
All the demon kings present could feel the shark demon king's rage. It could not be suppressed at all.
At this moment, his face was as black as charcoal. It was like dark clouds had gathered, and the entire banquet hall was filled with an oppressive aura. This was a demon king's rage. The surrounding maidservants were trembling, afraid that they would be implicated.
"Is this true or not? Are you sure it's true? "Shark Demon Monarch gritted his teeth. He still couldn't believe it.
This was because this matter was just too shocking. He was still fighting on the Giant Island, wanting to exterminate a large number of humans. Who would have thought that in the blink of an eye, his own nest would suffer a calamity and be ransacked by a little thief?
If this was the truth, it would go crazy.
"It's true, it's confirmed. The general who stayed behind came to contact us personally."
The shark monster guard braced himself and nodded. When he had first heard this news, he had been extremely shocked. But after confirming it again and again, he had no choice but to believe it. He hurriedly came to report.
"It's said that the human thief even buried a nuclear bomb in our city, intending to blow up our nest and wipe us all out. Fortunately, our commander fought with this shameless human in a battle of wits and courage, preventing the demons in the entire city from being annihilated, minimizing the losses." It described the news from the shark demon general.
"What did you say?!"
Shark Demon Monarch flew into a rage. "That b * tch actually dared to bury a nuclear bomb in the city of my Shark Demon Race. He even wants to blow up the entire nest of our race. How dare he do such a thing?!"
"He's courting death. He clearly wants to die!"
His entire body was trembling. If Xia Ping really succeeded, then even if he slaughtered the Giant Island today, his Shark Demon Race would be erased from the Endless Sea tomorrow. They would no longer have the prestige they had today.
"It can't be, right? How can that human be so arrogant? Does he want to fight to the death with the Shark Demon Monarch? "
"It's been a fight to the death for a long time. He's already attacking the Giant Island and wants to exterminate his entire clan. There's no room for reconciliation."
"We want to kill his entire clan, but he also wants to kill our entire clan. How ruthless."
"This human is indeed ruthless. He actually directly entered the Shark Demon Race's nest and wants to wipe us all out. If he really succeeds, the Shark Demon Race will probably suffer a great blow. It will take at least a thousand years for them to recover."
"Heavens, that's an underwater world thousands of meters deep. The water pressure is extremely high. How did this human go down there?"
"It's said that this human has a super battleship that can be used on land, sea, and air. It can fly up into the sky, dive into the ground, and dive into the sea."
"Even so, it's impossible to sneak into the underwater city without a sound. There are enchantments all around. It's impossible not to alarm the other demon soldiers."
"Perhaps this human has a secret treasure on him that can hide from the detection of the enchantments."
"Damn it. If he dares to sneak into the Shark Demon Race's city today, will he also sneak into our city tomorrow?"
The other demon monarchs were also shocked. They didn't expect such a thing to happen.
Originally, they relied on the underwater world as a natural stronghold and had nothing to fear. It had always been them who attacked human cities, not humans who attacked their own cities.
Therefore, they could advance and retreat as they pleased, coming and going like the wind. They didn't fear humans at all.
Even if they failed, they could hide in the sea, and humans couldn't do anything to them.
But now, it seemed that this wasn't the case at all. Humans had already begun to threaten the underwater world, and they could enter and leave as they pleased.
A chill surged in their hearts. Today, the Shark Demon Monarch had been robbed. Tomorrow, they might be robbed.
Instantly, many demon monarchs' eyes flickered. They felt a sense of danger.
"This won't do. I have to return to my territory and see what happened." The Shark Demon Monarch immediately stood up. He was burning with anxiety. He wanted to know how severe his losses were.
Even though the guards had reported that his palace had been ransacked, he didn't see it with his own eyes. He was still skeptical, wondering if it was an illusion or a joke.
"Shark Demon Monarch, I'll go with you." The Shadow Demon Monarch also stood up, his eyes flashing. "Perhaps that human hasn't gone far. We can join forces.
"If there's a chance, we'll wipe him out completely. The two of us can take care of each other.
"If we can kill that human, there's no way out."
He volunteered, hoping to take this opportunity to do Shark Demon Monarch a favor.
"Good. As expected of the Shadow Demon Monarch. A friend in need is a friend indeed. I, Shark Demon Monarch, will remember your assistance this time. Let's go together." The Shark Demon Monarch looked gratefully at the Shadow Demon Monarch.
The two immediately took action and left the island.
Given the demon monarchs' Cloud Treading speed, they were extremely fast. Moreover, they were moving at full speed. There was no room for them to hold back. In just an hour, they returned to the Shark Demon Race's territory.
