What the two Sovereigns were most worried about was that the Demon Sovereign would punish the Fox Sovereign in a fit of rage. If that happened, the situation might really get out of hand.
After all, the Demon Sovereign was the highest sovereign of the Demon Race. His words were the law, and he could be reasonable even if he was unreasonable. Hence, the Fox Sovereign took the initiative and suppressed the Demon Sovereign on the basis of reason. He first made the hot-tempered Sovereign feel that he was in the wrong, and then everything would be fine.
From the looks of it, things were developing smoothly. Of course, the Phoenix Sovereign had also contributed a lot. In the entire Demon Race, apart from the Phoenix Sovereign, even the Dragon Queen might not be able to persuade her Demon Sovereign husband.
"It doesn't matter whether you spare Azure Dragon or not … Azure Dragon killed my son, and I have already killed him on the spot!" The Fox Sovereign's face darkened, and he said sorrowfully, "What Your Majesty needs to consider now is that the Fox Race is in a frenzy because of this matter … I … can no longer suppress it …"
The Demon Sovereign stared. "What did you say? Azure Dragon is dead? "
Then, he stared again. "The Fox Race is in chaos? Nine-tailed White, you have been the Fox Sovereign for so many years. As the leader of the Fox Race, you can't suppress the emotions of your people? What are you doing? "
The Fox Sovereign said coldly, "Your Majesty, you must be joking. The reason why the Fox Race is so furious is because of my son's unjust death. What right do I have to suppress it? On the other hand, if I suppress this emotion directly, wouldn't I be going against the law … How can I lead the Fox Race? "
The Fox Sovereign snorted, and said, "When the Dragon Prince died, Your Majesty suppressed it?"
The Demon Sovereign was dumbfounded.
He couldn't help but feel his face turn purple. How dare the fox expose my shortcomings!
In just two sentences, the Fox Sovereign had already glossed over the Azure Dragon's death, and even suppressed the Demon Sovereign on the basis of righteousness.
The Phoenix Sovereign interrupted, and said, "Your Majesty, water has its source, trees have their roots, and everything has its cause. That Azure Dragon used the Soul Exterminating Palm on the Fox Prince … And he didn't even greet him. He suddenly attacked when he was caught off guard … The Fox Prince's soul was instantly destroyed … Even though the Fox Queen tried her best to save him, she could only keep a remnant of his soul … If the Fox Race doesn't have any emotions, and doesn't do anything, that would be the Fox Sovereign's failure. This matter of his … is indeed difficult!"
Demon Sovereign was enraged, "That bastard Qing Long! At such a critical juncture, you actually want to use your position to avenge a personal grudge. You really deserve to die! "
The Phoenix Monarch said, "Sigh, the life and death of the Azure Dragon are already inconsequential. Your Majesty … the Fox Monarch only has this one successor … Thankfully, I arrived in time and managed to protect the remnant of that child's soul. However, in terms of reviving the soul and prolonging its life, I'm unable to do it myself. I need Your Majesty to join forces with me to have any hope of reviving it."
The Fox Emperor cupped his hands and said, "Your Majesty, please take pity on my son's fate."
The Demon Sovereign looked at the Phoenix Sovereign and said in a low voice, "Phoenix Sovereign, I understand what you mean. This is something that should be done … However, even if you and I don't hesitate to expend a lot of our vitality and give it our all, we will at most have less than 40% success rate … That's fine, but if both of us drop our cultivation levels, it will be difficult for us to recover our peak battle prowess in a hundred years. There will be a lot of trouble in the future … Are you sure you want to do this?!"
The Phoenix Monarch said solemnly, "I think that it can be done, that it should be done, that it must be done."
The Demon Sovereign was silent for a moment before he finally nodded. "Since you have already decided, I will agree to it. However, Fox Emperor, you must also promise me one thing."
"Please speak, Your Majesty."
The Demon Sovereign sighed. "Azure Dragon is the main culprit of this matter. If he dies, then so be it. However, as the saying goes, if he dies, then he dies. As for Azure Dragon's family and clansmen … just raise your hand."
The Fox Emperor was silent for a moment before he said, "Since Your Majesty has spoken, as long as they don't take the initiative to provoke me … I will consider it. However, if they take the initiative to find trouble with me … I will still retaliate at the first instant. My son was killed, the Empress was bullied, and the palace was destroyed … If anyone tries to bully me and still wants me to tolerate it, I would rather not be the Fox Emperor than to do so! "
The Demon Sovereign sighed deeply. "That's good, that's good!"
This matter had come to an end.
The next moment, the Phoenix Monarch immediately issued an order.
"Pass down the Demon Sovereign's order. The Fox Demon who destroyed the underground prison has been captured and brought to justice! This matter ends here. It has come to an end. "
He then turned to the Fox Emperor. "Brother Fox, it won't be a problem for the Fox Clan to send out a Saint Venerable to cooperate with us and put on an act, right?"
The Fox Emperor had a complicated expression. "No problem."
The Demon Sovereign at the side was full of confusion. After a moment, he said angrily, "Phoenix Monarch! What's wrong with you? When did you capture that Fox Demon? Why didn't I know about it? Don't you think you can do whatever you want just because I love you?! "
The Phoenix Monarch sighed. "We haven't captured that Fox Demon yet, but … if we continue to carry out your orders, the entire Demon Clan might end up killing each other …"
The Demon Sovereign was stunned.
Although he was not as smart as the Phoenix Monarch and had a bad temper, he could easily do some reckless things when his temper flared up. However, since he could become the King of the Demon Clan, he was not a fool. He naturally had the heart of an Emperor. After the Phoenix Monarch said this, he immediately understood. There should be a huge loophole in his original orders, and it had already been used by a Heart Demon!
"Send it out immediately!"
The Phoenix Monarch directly took the Demon Sovereign's seal, stamped it, and threw it out.
Then, a second Demon Sovereign's order was passed down.
"Calculate all the casualties and deaths!"
The Demon Sovereign's expression instantly changed. He hurriedly stopped him. "What's the point of calculating the casualties … there's no need for that …"
The Phoenix Monarch slowly said, "Calculating the casualties is for your own sake."
Demon Sovereign: "…"
"In order to let you know … what a stupid thing you've done. Only the most detailed information is the best proof!" The Phoenix Monarch indifferently glanced at the Demon Sovereign.
The Demon Sovereign's expression instantly darkened. I knew you were not a good person!
Otherwise, why would I stop you …
However, the situation was obvious now. It was impossible to stop him. Because the Demon Sovereign's order had already been stamped and passed down.
"What do we do next?" The Demon Sovereign's expression darkened.
"What do we do? You're the Demon Sovereign, okay! " The Phoenix Monarch stretched lazily and was a little weak. "You always create a mess for me to clean up. Tell me, after so many years, how many times have you done it? I'd rather you not love me, so that I can still be free! "
The Demon Sovereign opened his mouth and was unable to say anything. After a long while, he struggled to say, "Back then, you said you didn't want to do it. Now it's all my fault …"
The Phoenix Monarch was so angry that his stomach hurt.
I'm not a member of the Demon Sovereign Clan. How can I do it? Just this point alone was enough to cause the entire Demon Clan to riot — could every Demon Clan become a Demon Sovereign regardless of their clan?
If this theory was spread … then the Demon Emperor's Realm would really be finished!
Moreover … who allowed you to become the number one expert in the Demon Clan Grand Tournament back then?
Was it because I didn't want to do it? Even if I risked my life, I still couldn't beat you, okay?!
You're the number one expert in the world. Of course you have to be the Demon Sovereign!
The Demon Clan's principle was that the strong were revered. This was the principle!
Also, also, don't be so ambiguous every time you speak. What do you mean by loving me? What the f * ck is that?!
"Forget it!" The Phoenix Monarch sat down sullenly and scolded through gritted teeth, "I owed you in my past life. In this life, the entire Demon Clan will have to clean up your mess for you!"
Although the Demon Sovereign's intelligence was only above average, he had always been very sensitive to insults. His expression suddenly changed at the Phoenix Monarch's words, and he said angrily, "Whose father are you?! Phoenix Monarch, I realize that you're getting cocky now. Do you still know who's at the top and who's at the bottom … "
As he spoke, he began to roll up his sleeves.
The Phoenix Monarch was so angry that he was speechless. His face was ashen. 'Didn't I just blurt it out?'
The Fox Monarch was half trying to smooth things over and half changing the topic. "Your Majesty, may I ask how many Ethereal Amethysts you have?"
The Demon Sovereign's attention was immediately diverted. He scratched his head and said, "That stuff is very rare. I have about thirty pieces here … Why?"
The Fox Monarch looked hopeless. "Thirty pieces, that's not enough …"
The Demon Sovereign, "…???"
'I've already said that stuff is rare. I have more than thirty pieces here, and that's definitely the most I have in the Demon Clan. I didn't say that I'll give it to you. What do you mean by' not enough '?!'
The Phoenix Monarch had already pulled him down from the throne, but he did not notice at all. He simply walked down from the throne and walked up to the Fox Monarch, asking a series of questions, "What do you want the Ethereal Amethysts for? This stuff is rare even among the humans, and even rarer among the Demon Clan … "
On the other side, the Phoenix Monarch was already sitting on the throne and issuing orders. "Sovereigns of the various clans, gather for a meeting. Also, the elites of the clans that specialize in soul energy and mental energy are not to be left behind. I want everyone to gather at the Demon Palace within two hours. "
His subordinates left to carry out the orders.
No one felt that there was anything wrong with the Phoenix Monarch sitting on the Demon Sovereign's throne and issuing orders. They were probably used to it.
The Demon Sovereign, on the other hand, did not feel anything was amiss. He was still frowning and looking worried. "This … this Ethereal Amethysts … where do I get them? If it were something else, or something that the Demon Clan can get their hands on … I can gather them for you no matter how many you have, but this Ethereal Amethysts … there's not much of them in the entire Bound of Universe … "
On the other side, the Phoenix Monarch's orders were passed down one after another. Of course, they were all in the name of the Demon Sovereign.
The Demon Sovereign patted the Fox Monarch's shoulder and sighed. "I understand, I understand how you feel … sigh …"
He could not help but recall the time when his son was killed by the Nine-Lives Cat. Nostalgia filled the Demon Sovereign's eyes. "Don't worry, the Phoenix Monarch and I will do our best. Even if our combat power is reduced, we won't regret it …"
The Fox Monarch nodded repeatedly.
He looked at the Demon Sovereign with a strange gaze and then at the Phoenix Monarch who was sitting on the throne boldly. He was suddenly convinced.
This fellow was not worried about being usurped at all … Perhaps he did not even have such a thought in his heart?
Should it be said that being simple-minded was also a form of happiness?
Yun Yang, who was still on his way, acutely noticed that the turmoil in the Demon Clan seemed to have calmed down all of a sudden!
This was obviously not right. People's hearts were moved by wealth. With such a terrible situation, even if a large number of officials were to intervene, it would still be difficult to pacify the situation!
Yun Yang probed around, seemingly unintentionally, and immediately understood that the Demon Emperor's Court had sent out the news that the demon fox had been captured!
Once the news was out, the enthusiasm of the entire Demon Emperor's Realm to capture the demon fox plummeted. Once the source of the unrest was eliminated, the chaos was immediately pacified.
"How did she get captured …"
"Useless demon fox, how could she be captured so easily …"
"Ahhh … My chance to ascend to the heavens in a single bound! … "
"How despicable! Who was it that snatched away my opportunity? Your father will not live under the same sky as him! "
"How could it be so fast? How could it be so fast? Didn't they say that the demon fox was very, very powerful? "
"Yes, yes. Didn't they say that the demon fox's ability was at the pinnacle of the Supreme Saint level, comparable to a Saint Lord's combat power? She even has the ability to change forms. How could she be so useless …"
"Let's get straight to the battle situation. How many experts were sent out? Millions of imperial guards were sent out … Wouldn't it be a piece of cake to capture the demon fox then? With such a military force, no matter how powerful her combat power is, she won't be of any help to the overall situation! "
"Sigh …"
Countless demonic beasts were disappointed and unwilling. Their hearts were filled with reluctance!
It was such a waste of such an opportunity.
Yun Yang, on the other hand, immediately felt that something was amiss.
The previous news was too advantageous to him, allowing him to stir up trouble smoothly. He followed the Demon Emperor's order and went with the flow, stirring up this bloody catastrophe of the Demon Race. As long as he, the source, was not dealt with, there would be no end to this catastrophe. Now, however, he had suddenly taken drastic measures to stop everything. It was too abnormal. It was completely different from the Demon Emperor's style of doing things that Yun Yang knew. It was as if he had become a different person – a demon!
Moreover, he was a very intelligent demon who could see through the big picture. An intelligent demon?
In the past, people often said that one was as intelligent as a demon, and Yun Yang had been praised as being as intelligent as a demon. However, Yun Yang felt that he had not met any demon that could be considered a worthy opponent during this trip to the Demon Race. Not even the Demon Emperor was an exception. In fact, the current Demon Emperor was an idiot. It could be seen from the Demon Emperor's order that Yun Yang had used to its fullest potential!
Now, however, the Demon Emperor's order from the Demon Emperor's palace had surprised Yun Yang!
Apart from the surprise, there were still many thoughts that lingered in his mind. How could he fish in troubled waters after what they had done?
But it was still not right. If the Demon Emperor himself had such wisdom, the first Demon Decree would not have been sent out of the Demon Emperor Palace. So now, the other Demon Decree directly took drastic measures and destroyed his plan to set the prairie ablaze with sparks. Who was it?
Could there be a great demon in the Demon Emperor's court who could change the Demon Emperor's decision?
Was it not said that the Demon Emperor's ability was astonishing and that he was the top of the Demon Race?
Now that a wise person had entered the fray, he had to be cautious. Yun Yang stopped his' preaching 'journey at once and quickly left the team he had just joined. He then sprinted tens of thousands of miles in an extremely short amount of time. He then made a turn and sprinted back for another seven thousand miles.
Along the way, he kept changing his identity, his appearance, and his race background …
In total, Yun Yang had killed fifteen demons and changed into the demon's appearance. After using it for a while, he would throw it away and change again, repeating the process …
On this day, Yun Yang had changed his appearance again. He had turned into a tiger demon and walked calmly on the road. He looked no different from any other ordinary demon.
However, on the surface, the Fox Demon's kill order had been withdrawn. In reality, the high-end tracking methods had never stopped at all. Now that the Phoenix Emperor was in charge of the situation, they were even more incisive. In reality, the Demon Race's tracking divine consciousness had started tracking him less than half a day after his wolf demon form left.
The resourceful Celestial Wolf had become a new wanted criminal.
Yun Yang had changed his identity eight times and his soul wave eight times, but it was like a parasite that he could not shake off!
Then, Yun Yang changed his identity seven times in an extremely short period of time. Only then did he finally get rid of the prickling feeling.
"The Demon Race's tracking method this time is rather terrifying. The effect is remarkable!"
"What should I do next?"
Yun Yang pondered.
The current situation had somewhat exceeded his expectations. It was difficult to handle.
