Just as the Demon Emperor stopped.
At that moment, the Soul Vitality of Nine-tailed Jade, which had been forcefully restrained, lost its suppression. It suddenly shook and dissipated. Not only did it make the treatment completely ineffective, but it also caused the damage to Nine-tailed Jade's Divine Soul to worsen. It was almost a devastating blow!
That was … the Demon Emperor cutting off the Dragon Soul's soul energy supply!
At that moment, the Fox Emperor felt that his mind was in chaos. He was completely dumbfounded!
A bolt from the blue struck the top of his head without any warning!
However, he couldn't say anything.
He didn't know why the Demon Emperor did that, but that wasn't the main point. The main point was that his son was with the Demon Emperor and the Phoenix Emperor, and there was no way to save him. If he couldn't control his temper, perhaps this would be the place where he and his son would die!
Or perhaps he would follow in the footsteps of the Nine-Lives Cat and be sealed in the Demon Soul Prison forever!
Even if the Dragon and the Phoenix teamed up, he wouldn't be a match for either of them!
Even if the Phoenix Emperor was on good terms with him, no other demon in this world could compare to the relationship between him and the Demon Emperor!
That was the difference in quality. There was no point in comparing them!
At that moment, he understood the situation. He could only watch as his only son's soul body was filled with cracks that could never be healed!
Then, he suppressed the pain in his heart and thanked the Phoenix Emperor and the Demon Emperor sincerely.
Only then could he leave the Demon Emperor's Palace alive. Only then could he find another way to revive his beloved son's life!
"It's a pity … after thousands of years of cultivation, I still couldn't control the slight leakage of my emotions!"
The Fox Emperor smiled bitterly. His emotions were hard to predict.
Perhaps the Demon Emperor wouldn't notice what he said before he left. However, it was impossible to hide it from the Phoenix Emperor!
At that moment, the Fox Emperor's mind drifted off into the distance, and he suddenly thought of something.
"White robes, red eyes, seven-star golden bones, nine-tailed green mountains, the leader of the demon race!"
That was when his son was born. A strange fragrance wafted through the air, and a refreshing atmosphere lingered in the air. The child's body was covered in white hair, but his eyes were crimson red. There were also seven red moles on his feet, and he was born with golden bones. Even if one didn't understand, it was clear that this child would definitely be extraordinary when he grew up!
He was overjoyed and held a banquet. Countless top-notch experts of the demon race gathered in the hall. At that time, a great demon congratulated him. "Today, the Crown Prince has arrived. We are honored to be here. Why don't we work together to estimate the Crown Prince's future and find out the secrets of heaven?"
At that time, he was drunk and his ears hot, and he responded with a loud roar.
As a result, a total of 24 Saint Monarchs who were close to him joined forces and gathered their Saint Force to ask for the secrets of the heavens!
In the end, the demerit he received was the few sentences displayed.
But when he saw the last sentence of the oracle, he was not happy, but scared out of his wits. He hurriedly gathered ten Demon Clan Elders and used all the Demon Aura in his body to disturb the Heaven's Secret. He managed to change the last sentence to "Master of the Fox Clan".
However, the Demon Heart was unpredictable. The oracle that day still spread.
Even without the oracle, after his son was born, he was exceptionally talented. He had already reached a higher level of cultivation at the age of ten. In less than a hundred years, he already had the cultivation of a Saint King. This was the result of him laying a solid foundation for his son and avoiding any hidden dangers. He rarely gave him supplementary elixirs.
One must know that while any elixir or Heavenly Treasure increased cultivation, it would definitely be accompanied by hidden dangers. The demon race was ultimately not the human race. While the demon body was extremely talented, it made it difficult for the demon body to absorb all the elixirs. If one were to rely on external forces in the early stages of cultivation, the path in the future would only become narrower and narrower.
However, the Fox Crown Prince, the Nine-tailed Jade, relied solely on his own hard work in cultivation. Along the way, he almost ignored the bottleneck and ascended to the heavens. He could be said to be the number one genius in the history of the demon race!
After his son grew up, he displayed extraordinary means. Aside from his high cultivation and extraordinary intelligence, he was also magnanimous, gentle, and honest. All the demons who came into contact with him could not help but feel a sense of recognition.
Without a doubt, this was the natural bearing of a King!
All the members of the Fox Clan were elated. This was because the Crown Prince's current performance showed that the Fox Clan would definitely welcome a wise and mighty monarch in the future!
Not only was this monarch wise and mighty, but he was also kind and generous. From the way he spoke, he was definitely a man of great talent and ambition.
Other than the fact that he was still lacking in the skills of a monarch and his life experience, everything else was impeccable.
The Fox Emperor still remembered that decades ago, his son relied on his own hard work to cultivate to the third stage of the Saint King. That day, he came to him excitedly to report the good news …
How could he forget the pride of his son at that moment!
I am the crown prince, but I have only enjoyed the convenience of the royal family. I have never used the heavenly treasures that are coveted by all demon clans. My body is completely made of Golden Exquisite Bones, without the slightest impurity!
The supreme path is smooth and unobstructed. The Great Dao is within reach!
The Fox Emperor was also extremely excited about this outcome. He knew better than any other demon that his son's future achievements would definitely be stronger than his, much stronger!
Even if it was the Sage, that supreme rank that only existed in legends, it was just a process for his son!
All the roads had been paved!
All that was left was the accumulation of spiritual power and the accumulation of time.
However, the sudden change was like an unexpected calamity falling from the heavens!
He and his beloved Skydemon would be separated forever?!
The Fox Emperor frowned. A memory from a long time ago flashed before his eyes. That time … the Demon Emperor had mentioned his son to him. He had jokingly said, "Nine-tailed White, you have to nurture my nephew well. He is the future leader of the Demon Clan! In the future, my position will be reserved for him, hahaha … "
Perhaps the Spirit Demon Emperor was only joking at that time, but he was so scared that he broke out in cold sweat and almost ran away.
"How, how could I forget such a big matter? It should be this matter that caused the current situation!"
"Long Yutian has never been a meticulous person. Although his cultivation base is high, his talent is exceptional, and he is unparalleled in the world. However, he often makes decisions on impulse. Previously, he had a think tank to help him with his plans. However, after being the Demon Emperor for so many years, as his power grew, he almost dismissed the think tank. "
"This matter, once he agreed to it, he would do his best and would never give up halfway."
"However, the reality now is that he changed his mind halfway."
"This shouldn't be the idea of a demon."
"It was his own decision, a decision made in a split second."
"Yes, yes. If the Dragon and Phoenix's Vital Essence had saved my son, not only would my son's Primordial Spirit be recondensed, there would be hope for his resurrection, and it would even be a blessing in disguise. Think about it, he who has all the advantages of a Dragon, Phoenix, Nine-tailed Fox, and a Nine-tailed Fox. His future would only be broader and more boundless … "
"As for the words that year … the Spirit Demon Emperor must have suddenly remembered those words after he agreed to it!"
"The sky cannot have two suns, and a country cannot have two rulers. What he is trying to save now, or even nurture, might be the successor who will replace him in the future!"
"So he regretted it."
"He didn't want that day to come, and he didn't want to regret it. So … he chose to disappoint us, no, despair!"
The Fox Emperor paced slowly, his thin face expressionless.
"So … he did it on purpose! But why did he do it? And in front of me? Yes, he isn't the Phoenix Emperor. He doesn't know that I have the Heart of Nine Orifices, and he thinks that I can't see through it. And the Phoenix Emperor, out of consideration, won't expose his tricks! "
"In fact, he can even sell himself to me and gain my sincerity … because after all, he did put in a lot of effort."
"As long as my son dies, I won't be able to pose any threat to his throne at all!"
The Fox Emperor raised his head expressionlessly and looked at the dark sky outside the window. He let out a long, long sigh.
"In that case, big brother is no longer my big brother. He is now a Demon Emperor, and only a Demon Emperor!"
"But … I was the one who predicted the heavenly workings that day. If my son should be the ruler of the Demon Race, my son wouldn't have died here!"
"There must be a turn for the better in this matter!"
A cold smirk appeared on the Fox Emperor's face. It was so cold that it could freeze a demon's heart.
In the next moment, his Saint Monarch-level mental strength erupted violently. It was unleashed to its limit without reservation, so much so that the area within seventeen thousand miles was completely enveloped in his domineering mental strength.
"Yun Yang must be within this area!"
"The only one who can save my son now, the only one I can pin my hopes on, is this human!"
"He possesses many unique abilities that are beyond our knowledge. His endless transformations, perhaps the legendary manifestation of the heavens. Since he can possess the extinct mystical materials of the eagle, roc, and condor clans, he might also have a treasure that can condense souls … Also, he had a considerable amount of Ethereal Amethysts with him previously. He might be able to create a miracle … He has created too many miracles in this period of time. If there's still someone who can protect my son from death in this world, it's none other than Yun Yang!"
"No demon knows that the Heart of Nine Orifices combined with my extreme deific consciousness is the strongest insight in this world … Only I can find traces of Yun Yang. Now, I'm going to find him."
"My son mustn't die!"
"I want Yun Yang to save my son!"
"You're the Demon Emperor, no longer my big brother. I don't blame you for your choice. But my son mustn't die! "
"I want to save my son, just like how you didn't hesitate to turn against the old cat for your son back then. It's the same for both of us, it's all for our son!"
"Big brother … this may be the last time I call you that!"
…
In that instant, the Fox Emperor's incomparably vast mental energy shook the entire Demon Imperial City.
In the Demon Emperor's palace, the Demon Emperor was shocked. "Nine-tailed White's mental strength is so terrifying! Could he have hidden his cultivation base before this? "
"But this should be to search for that human's whereabouts, right? Yes, in the end, it was because of that human that his son had died! Of course, Nine-tailed White's rage has to be vented. "
"And that human is the most appropriate and only choice for him to vent his anger!"
…
By then, the Phoenix Emperor had already left the palace and arrived in front of the Fox Emperor.
Although he knew that the Fox Emperor did not want to see anyone now, he still came. This was because the Phoenix Emperor knew very well that if the knot in Nine-tailed White's heart was left unresolved, it would definitely become a threat to the demon race in the future!
Nine-tailed White's destructive power was much, much stronger than the Nine-lives Cat of yesteryear!
"Is the Fox Emperor here?"
"Your Majesty, His Majesty is currently activating his mental strength to search the world, searching for that human's whereabouts."
"I have something to talk to him about, report it quickly."
"This …"
The Phoenix Emperor and the Fox Emperor were the rare few sovereigns in the demon world who were known for their playfulness. They were on good terms with each other, and their relationship was the deepest, second only to the Dragon Emperor. If it were in the past, the guards would not have hesitated and would even lead the Phoenix Emperor to the Fox Emperor's location.
However, things were different now. The Dragon and Phoenix Emperors had failed to save the Linghu Crown Prince, and the latter could no longer be saved. It was not only the Fox Emperor and Empress who were devastated, but the rest of the foxes were also filled with grief and resentment. There were those who hated the Azure Dragon for being merciless and those who hated Yun Yang, the instigator of all this, but there were also those who resented the two sovereigns for not being able to save the Linghu Crown Prince. Now that the Fox Emperor was filled with grief and anger, he was exerting his full power to search for the human's whereabouts. It was inconvenient to disturb him, so he was hesitant when the Phoenix Emperor asked to see him.
At this moment, a gentle voice rang out, "His Majesty, the Phoenix Emperor, has graced us with his presence. Invite him in quickly!"
It was the Fox Empress' voice.
The Phoenix Emperor chuckled humorlessly. "Greetings, sister-in-law."
The Fox Empress came out to welcome them with a smile, looking pleasantly surprised. "Greetings, greetings, greetings. It's the fragrance that brought my son's second uncle here … Tsk tsk, no wonder I've heard the magpies chirping from morning till night. It's my husband's most loyal brother of more than forty thousand years who's here. Your presence brings light to my humble abode, it's an honor to bring light to my humble abode … Quick, quick, quick, please come in quickly."
Her voice was sincere, her expression cordial.
The Phoenix Emperor's expression froze as he said hoarsely, "Sister-in-law … you …"
"Oh, second brother, why are you so courteous? For so many years, our families have always been united and we've gone through so many things together. Thinking back to those eventful times, I can't help but feel warmth in my heart when I think of the earth-shattering and sincere friendship between you brothers. It's an indescribable sense of intimacy. Isn't he home now that he's here? What's there to report? "
The Fox Empress' smile was like a blooming flower, her tone as gentle as it could be.
The Phoenix Emperor coughed and bowed solemnly. "Sister-in-law, what happened to your nephew … I'm utterly ashamed!"
The Fox Empress' expression turned serious. "Oh my, second brother, please don't say that! Just based on the many years of brotherly relationship between you and my husband, what does a mere nephew of yours amount to? What's worth? Not to mention the death of a nephew, for the sake of Second Brother's reputation, the Nine-tailed White Fox slaughtered our entire family. Even in the underworld, we will be moved by your brotherly love and wish you the best of luck! "
"Don't just stand outside when you're home. Come in quickly. I'll go brew some tea for you now … Later, I'll personally cook a few dishes for you, second brother, so that you brothers can have a good drink. As the saying goes, when a man is depressed, he has to drink. Your sister-in-law is insensible, but the Nine-tailed White is sensible … Don't mind it, don't mind it. Please don't mind it, don't mind it. "
The Phoenix Emperor's expression stiffened as he coughed. "Brother Fox is still unleashing his spiritual power … It's really not a good idea to disturb him at this time. Why don't I do it another day …"
"Second brother, what are you saying? You're already here, why do you still need to catch a spy!" The Fox Empress said firmly, "Even if he has a huge matter, he has to let it go! Brotherly relationship is important! "
He suddenly shouted, "Nine-tailed White! Your good brother who has gone through thick and thin with you for more than forty thousand years, has arrived! Why aren't you coming out to greet him warmly! Be careful that I get angry and get your big brother to teach you a lesson, you disobedient good-for-nothing … "
The Phoenix Emperor's face turned into a persimmon as he laughed stiffly. "Well, I'm not here for anything important … Sister-in-law, please do what you need to do. I'll go back now … This …"
Before he finished speaking, he turned around and left. He really could not stay any longer.
The Fox Empress said repeatedly behind him, "Second brother, second brother, how can you leave? You mustn't leave … If you leave and the Nine-tailed White gets angry with me, what can I do? I just lost my son. If I'm also angered by my husband, I really won't be able to survive in this Fox Clan …"
The Phoenix Emperor ignored her and walked even faster. With a flash of his body, he had already disappeared without a trace.
The Fox Empress was throwing a tantrum behind him. "You bunch of blind fools! Your master's good brother is here, and you actually dare to stop him? Are you courting death? Bastards! How many brains do you think you have? Let me tell you, the Nine-tailed White can even neglect his son for his brother. Why would he care about the few of you? Who do you think you are? If there's a next time, I'll definitely skin all of you personally and make fox fur coats for the brothers of your Majesty! "
"…"
The Phoenix Emperor, who was already hundreds of miles away, stopped in mid-air. He closed his eyes wordlessly and retracted all his spiritual power and divine sense.
Behind him, the Fox Empress' words were still reverberating through the void, her voice echoing for thousands of miles.
Every sentence and word of the Fox Empress was like a heavy knife stabbing into the Phoenix Emperor's heart. Stab after stab, stab after stab.
And the Fox Emperor's spiritual power was still reverberating through the void, searching carefully over thousands of miles of land!
Wherever his spiritual power passed, it would crush everything mercilessly. But if there was any obstruction, it would be suppressed without a second word! It was unknown how many demons had lost their lives under the Fox Emperor's violent spiritual power at this moment!
This process was still going on as if it would never end …
…
The Phoenix Emperor turned back reluctantly and looked in the direction of the eruption of spiritual power. His gaze was extremely deep. He looked at the sky of the demon race. Under that crazy spiritual power, pieces of the sky were shattered and reformed …
After a long, long time, his body disappeared into the void.
Only a sigh was left behind.
"Brother, take care!"
… … …
Writing up to this point, everything has been sorted out. But there's still one last thing I can't make up my mind about. It's White Bear and the others … If I sort out the plot, this crazy eruption will pass. gt;
