Victory and defeat were common in war.
Why couldn't they retreat? Retreating to preserve their strength was the prerequisite for a comeback and victory. These generals had fought countless life-and-death battles with other races on Mount Buzhou.
Although the demons used to be the overlord, they weren't the overlord now. Why couldn't they lose? What did he mean by losing his dignity? That was utter nonsense!
But even if Ye Tianze was talking nonsense, they couldn't do anything to Ye Tianze because the Demon Purification Pot and the Crown Prince didn't stop him.
The Crown Prince didn't stop him, which meant that this was really the will of the Demon Emperor.
At this moment, Zhu Que said, "Carry out the Marshal's order. The demons can't retreat. We've already given up our position as the overlord. If we're facing the Wu people, the God Race, or the Asura Race … we can retreat, but we can't retreat against these animals. The Demon Master is right. We must fight to the death. This concerns our dignity!"
"If the demons choose to retreat in the face of a group of animals, what will the three races of the Primitive Era think of us?"
Zhu Que continued, "Will they think that we're so weak that we're afraid of a group of ants? At that time, won't the three clans launch a war of extermination against the Monster Clan? "
Silence!
The entire Marshal's Mansion was dead silent. The generals didn't speak. They finally understood the hidden danger.
If they retreated in this battle, it would cause a butterfly effect. The three races were now eyeing the demons covetously. They didn't dismount and fight the demons because they knew that they wouldn't gain any benefits if they dismounted.
But if the demons retreated in the face of a group of ants, it would be tantamount to telling the three races that the demons were so weak that they would be afraid of a group of ants.
This wasn't the kind of battle in Mount Buzhou where the outcome of the battle was very common. It was a battle that concerned the survival of the tribe.
The Buzhou Mountain Range was under great pressure, and so were the territories bordering the Monster Race and the non-humankind.
If they retreated, the Other Tribes at the borders and even Mount Buzhou would press forward with all their might. The Shamans were waiting for this opportunity.
"We will fight to the end. Even if we are completely annihilated, we will continue to fight. At the very least, we will tell the three clans that we, the Monster Clan, are not so easily bullied. If they want to dismount and fight in person, they will have to pay a much heavier price than they can imagine!"
The Vermilion Bird said coldly.
She really didn't want to say this because she recognized her identity as a demon, and these were all her fellow demons.
Her heart was in incomparable pain because she knew that these words could convince others, but not herself.
All of this was just a scheme. It was impossible for those demon warriors to know why they had died. This was the fate of ants.
They viewed humans as ants, but in the eyes of the Yao Clan's rulers, weren't they ants as well?
Even the generals in front of him were like ants. If the demons wanted them to die, they had to die. They didn't even have the chance to rebel.
These generals did not say a word as they accepted the order and left.
This also made Ye Tianze realize how powerful the Monster Clan was. This was much more terrifying than the Monster Clan in the outside world.
After all, the Monster Clan had just fallen from their position of overlord. At this moment, the Monster Clan still had the strong dignity and sense of mission of the Monster Clan.
Ye Tianze even felt some respect for them, but he didn't pity these demons.
After all the generals left, Zhu Que sat back down as if she had lost her soul. There was no trace of blood on her face.
Ye Tianze didn't want to comfort her because he knew very well that Zhu Que was not his wife right now. His wife hadn't awakened.
The heavier the blow to her, the better. It would be best if it could destroy her confidence and cause her to become autistic. That way, the true will of Zhu Que might awaken.
"A good game of chess." A voice suddenly entered his mind. It was that immortal peach.
Ye Tianze almost forgot about him. He said, "You're really good at restraining yourself. You didn't say anything for so long."
"Are you kidding? I'm an immortal peach. A 100,000-year-old immortal peach. No, no, two 100,000-year-old immortal peaches. You copied one of them and I swallowed it."
The immortal peach said, "With my identity, it's best that you never remember me. What if you remember me and eat me? What should I do then?"
When Ye Tianze heard this, he remembered that the real thing was the most powerful divine medicine of the Divine Battle Ape, even without the disgusting face on its body.
If he swallowed this immortal peach, he would probably reach the peak of his life.
Ye Tianze smiled at the immortal peach's words. He said, "You still know that you're an immortal peach!"
"Of course I know. I also know that a cold person like you won't eat me just because I have spiritual intelligence," the immortal peach said.
"Wait a minute.
I remember that you've been talking about the human race. You've been staying in the Five Elements Mountain all this time. How do you know about the human race? "
Ye Tianze asked.
"Because … I've seen through the world. You're all in the fog. You think you're on the right path, but in fact, you're just on the wrong path. You're getting farther and farther away from the right path."
The immortal peach's tone was unfathomable. "Don't treat me like a scammer. I've lived longer than you, and I've seen more Emperors than you have."
"Then speak human language!" Ye Tianze said angrily.
"Okay, okay, I'm following you because I want to find the right path. I've decided to follow you. You're the only one who can still walk on the right path. After all, you even have a treasure bowl! For that, I can even sacrifice myself and let you eat me. However, you have to leave a peach pit for me. When the time comes, don't forget to plant me in the new world. That's all I can say. "
The immortal peach said, "You won't understand if I say too much. Besides, something terrible will happen."
"Can you tell what a treasure bowl is?" Ye Tianze asked.
"It's not a treasure. It's a heaven-defying object even in the new world!"
The immortal peach said, "Okay, okay, let's not talk about it. If it wakes up one day, it'll cause trouble for me. Let's talk about this bird. You don't have good taste. Why do you like a bird? "
"Phoenix!"
Ye Tianze roared.
"Okay, okay, okay. Phoenix, phoenix."
The immortal peach said helplessly, "If you want to trick her, you have to trick her thoroughly. How about this? Let me train that monkey in your internal universe. This guy seems to be about to awaken. I'll take it to help you trick the Demon Emperor. How about that?"
Ye Tianze thought of Yuan Chong in his internal universe and immediately understood the immortal peach's meaning.
Now that Yuan Chong had returned to its original state, its will had been erased. As long as it was refined slightly, it could become his clone.
After being nurtured in his body for so long, it had become one with him. As long as it entered his body, he would be able to control it easily.
However, this was his original plan. He didn't plan to let the Vermilion Bird become the demon race's crown prince. He planned to use the stone monkey avatar to replace the Vermilion Bird and infiltrate the demon race as a spy.
Once the Demon Emperor acknowledged the stone monkey and had the intention of making it the Crown Prince, it would be a huge blow to Zhu Que.
Seeing that he was silent for a long time, the immortal peach said with a smile, "I know this is your plan. Although your plan is perfect, it won't be easy to hide it from the Demon Emperor. However, with me, things will be different. That damned monkey in the Lingxiao Hall also treats me as a divine object. If I acknowledge the stone monkey, it means that the Demon Emperor's confidence will be lowered."
"You said it yourself. Now that we're playing the cards in the open, the Demon Emperor knows everything about you. He will be very wary of the stone monkey."
