Everything happened too suddenly.
Before this so-called Princess Yu Die died, she still had a cold and arrogant expression on her face. She did not even have the time to show any surprise.
The servants and maids that she brought with her were completely stunned at first, then they screamed.
"How dare you, Lan Ling! This is Princess Sha Yan's adopted sister, the adopted daughter of the Demon royal family!" One of the maids pointed at Lan Ling and screamed, "You have committed a crime punishable by death. You are finished, your entire Flame Demon Flag is finished."
Lan Ling frowned. Were all the servants of Princess Sha Yan so arrogant and stupid?
Yu Die was a bullsh * t princess. She was merely Princess Sha Yan's personal sword servant. The reason why she was adopted by one of the younger brothers of the Demon King was because of Sha Yan's political means. He tried to use a so-called princess to form a marriage alliance with Lan Ling.
It could be said that if it was not for Lan Ling, Yu Die would not even have the title of a fake princess.
These maids and servants of Princess Sha Yan thought that the Rakshasa race was the high and mighty heavens. Even Yu Die, who had been adopted by a member of the royal family, had become a golden branch and jade leaf, a high and mighty mistress in Flame Demon City, possessing a status that surpassed Lan Ling.
The Crown Prince's face was splashed with blood. He was stunned for a moment, then his eyes turned cold. Yu Die was his lover in name. Although they had never slept together, he had promised to take Yu Die as his concubine.
That's right, he was here to cause trouble for Lan Ling.
Lan Ling's rise was not only noticed by the Young Demon King, but also by the Netherworld Prince.
Of course, the Netherworld Prince did not pay much attention to Lan Ling. To him, Lan Ling was just a minor disease. The Demon royal family could easily crush him with a finger. However, it was a crucial moment before the Demon Race's internal war broke out, so Lan Ling had the space to stir up trouble.
After Lan Ling defeated the Black Demon Flag Master, he suddenly looked at the name Lan Ling in astonishment.
However, before he could do anything, the Young Rakshasa King had recruited Lan Ling and married Princess Sha Yan to him. Furthermore, he had also conferred him the title of Flame Demon Flag Master.
To the Netherworld Prince, this was an extremely dangerous signal. He felt that this meant that the Flaming Demon Flag led by Lan Ling had surrendered to the Young Rakshasa King.
All along, this Crown Prince, who was also known as the Young Rakshasa King, was very proud and aloof. He had always disdained to rope in other forces, and had always been cold and distant to the thirteen devil flag owners.
And now, he had actually roped in Lan Ling. In the eyes of the Netherworld Prince, this was a signal. The Young Rakshasa King had begun to form a faction to fight back against the Netherworld Prince's encroachment on the position of the Crown Prince.
For the past ten years, the Netherworld Prince had never stopped fighting for the position of the crown prince.
He had a huge advantage, but also a huge disadvantage.
He had two advantages. First, he had a close relationship with his father, the Rakshasa King.
Although he was an illegitimate child, the Rakshasa King's love for the Netherworld Prince far exceeded that of the Rakshasa Crown Prince. This was because he could feel the admiration and admiration from the Netherworld Prince. He could feel the pride of a father.
However, he could not feel this from the Young Rakshasa King at all. This was because his Crown Prince was too outstanding and too arrogant.
Second, the Netherworld Prince had a very good relationship with the Rakshasa Clan's Elder Guild and the devil flag owners.
This was also thanks to the Rakshasa Crown Prince. This Crown Prince was really too proud and aloof. He always had a face like a statue. Not to mention roping in the forces under him, he was even stingy in meeting and talking to them.
Whether it was the Elder Guild, the elders of the royal family, or the devil flag owners, they all felt that the Rakshasa Crown Prince was really too distant.
However, the Netherworld Prince was completely different. After days of hard work, his relationship with others was very good. Whether it was in the hearts of the devil flag owners, or in the hearts of the royal family and the elders of the Rakshasa Clan, the Netherworld Prince was an outstanding and amiable prince.
Not only did they form a friendship, but they also formed a huge relationship of interest.
It seemed that the Netherworld Prince's influence was overwhelming, and he should have a great advantage in the battle for the position of Crown Prince.
However … in reality, it did not seem to be the case.
In the entire Rakshasa Clan, or even the entire Demon Clan's territory, no one had ever doubted the legitimacy of the Rakshasa Crown Prince inheriting the throne.
Although everyone felt that the Crown Prince was too distant and arrogant, everyone felt that it was reasonable for him to be the successor to the throne.
No matter how hard the Netherworld Prince tried, it seemed like it would be very difficult to change this fact.
What made the Netherworld Prince even angrier was that his elder brother, the Crown Prince, did not even see him as an opponent. He turned a blind eye to the Netherworld Prince seizing power and roping in the nobles.
The Netherworld Prince had always been attacking the position of Crown Prince and had always been eroding the authority of the Rakshasa Crown Prince.
However, the Rakshasa Crown Prince did not seem to care about it at all. In fact, he did not even have the intention to counterattack.
At this moment, the Rakshasa Crown Prince roping in Lan Ling was a signal for the Netherworld Prince to counterattack.
Therefore, he immediately stood up and accepted the challenge as if he had been injected with chicken blood.
His motive was very simple. Elder Brother Crown Prince, didn't you want to lure in Lan Ling as a strong ally? You even did not hesitate to marry Princess Sha Yan to Lan Ling.
In that case, I will chop off your arm and use Lan Ling as a cannonball to attack the Rakshasa Crown Prince.
Previously, no matter what the Netherworld Prince did, the Young Rakshasa King did not move at all. Therefore, he did not have any flaws.
Now, the Young Rakshasa King roping in Lan Ling was a huge flaw in the Netherworld Prince's eyes. It could bring him a huge cannon fire, so he was very excited.
He would definitely make a good move. Not only would he chop off Lan Ling's arm, he would also destroy half of the Young Rakshasa King's position as Crown Prince.
Therefore, the Crown Prince came to the Flame Demon City to ask for the jade butterfly.
The jade butterfly was Lan Ling's concubine. The Crown Prince coming to ask for it was obviously a slap in the face.
If Lan Ling backed down and handed over the jade butterfly, there was no doubt that there would be a huge crack in the marriage between him and Princess Sha Yan.
The best result would be Lan Ling killing Princess Yu Die out of anger.
In that case, not only would the marriage between him and the Rakshasa royal family be completely severed, it would also completely offend the Rakshasa royal family.
Moreover, the Young Rakshasa King, who was the matchmaker of this marriage, had to personally behead Lan Ling in order to regain the royal family's dignity. This was because Yu Die could be considered as the Young Rakshasa King's betrothal to Lan Ling. Now that Lan Ling had killed her, it was undoubtedly a slap in the Young Rakshasa King's face.
If the Young Rakshasa King did not react, he would tarnish the royal family's dignity. If he reacted, he would chop off one of his arms. It was exactly like how Zhuge Liang beheaded Ma Su in the Romance of the Three Kingdoms.
It was because of the above plot that the Crown Prince seduced Yu Die, and gave her a very serious emotional promise. It could even be considered as a private engagement, which filled Yu Die's heart with hope.
Yu Die, this stupid woman, thought that the Crown Prince really liked her, but she did not know that she was just a pathetic tool to be used as cannon fodder.
Furthermore, even though the majority of the servants and maids accompanying Yu Die in her dowry belonged to Princess Sha Yan's Residence, there were a few who had long since been bribed by the cold and despicable Prince. Thus, after following Yu Die to Flame Demon City, they had been inciting her, adding fuel to the fire.
One had to admit that the Netherworld Prince's scheming and craftsmanship were extremely shocking.
He could create an unsolvable situation with just a casual move.
Of course, he would never have thought that it was not Lan Ling who relied on the Young Rakshasa King, but the two of them who were fighting for the same ideal.
…
Holding Yu Die's head, the Crown Prince revealed a gentle smile and said, "Lan Ling, you are really stupid. You jumped into a random trap, thank you!"
Then, his expression suddenly changed into one of extreme grief and indignation.
"How dare you, Lan Ling! Yu Die is the adopted daughter of the Rakshasa royal family. She is my adopted sister and Princess Sha Yan's adopted sister. You killed her just like that, where is the dignity of the royal family? Where is the dignity of His Highness the Crown Prince? " The Crown Prince pointed at Lan Ling while trembling and said, "His Highness the Crown Prince thought so highly of you, betrothed Princess Sha Yan to you, and gave Princess Yu Die as a dowry to you. You … you actually killed Yu Die. You are throwing sh * t on His Highness the Crown Prince's face. You cannot be redeemed!"
At this moment, the Crown Prince's beautiful face was twisted into a hideous expression, as if he was extremely angry, as if he wanted to kill his subordinate for the humiliation of his master.
One had to admit that his acting skills were on point.
"Crown Prince, is your father Elder Mo Kan?" Lan Ling asked.
"So what if he is?" The Crown Prince replied.
Mo Kan, the Rakshasa King's elder brother, a member of the Rakshasa royal family's Elders Council, a member of the Rakshasa clan's Elders Council.
The highest authority in the Rakshasa clan was the Rakshasa clan's Elders Council, followed by the Rakshasa royal family's Elders Council, followed by the 13 Devil Flags.
The Crown Prince's father, Mo Kan, was not only an elder of the Rakshasa clan, but he was also an elder of the royal family. He had absolute authority.
In terms of authority and status, this Crown Prince indeed didn't put a newly promoted Devil Flags owner, Lan Ling, in his eyes.
At this moment, the dozens of servants and maids that Yu Die brought all knelt down and said in a hoarse voice, "Crown Prince, please seek justice for Princess Yu Die. She can't die in vain. Kill that bastard Lan Ling and exterminate his entire clan to avenge the princess."
The Crown Prince said in a sorrowful voice, "I don't have the authority to punish a Devil Flags owner."
Immediately, a servant hurriedly said, "Then who has the authority? We will go and kneel, we will cut our blood and lodge a complaint. We must make that evil chieftain Lan Ling pay with his blood. "
The Crown Prince said, "The Rakshasa clan's Elders Council and the royal family's Elders Council have this authority. However, all the Elders have important matters to attend to. Therefore, the one who has the most authority to deal with this matter now is His Highness the Crown Prince. "
Immediately, the servants cried out loudly, "We will go and beg the Crown Prince, let him exterminate Lan Ling's entire clan. If he doesn't agree, I will kill myself in front of the Minor Rakshasa Palace."
The Crown Prince said, "Yu Die is also my sworn sister. She was actually killed by Lan Ling in front of me. I will also follow you to the Minor Rakshasa Palace to kneel and beg His Highness the Crown Prince to seek justice for my sworn sister Yu Die, to reclaim the dignity of my Rakshasa royal family."
Lan Ling looked at all this with a cold smile.
Then, he suddenly smiled and said, "You guys don't have enough cannonballs. I haven't committed enough crimes. Why don't I give you some more?"
The Crown Prince was startled.
Lan Ling looked at the dozens of servants and maids that Yu Die brought with her, asking slowly, "You guys came from Princess Sha Yan's residence, but if you marry a chicken, follow the chicken. If you marry a dog, follow the dog. Since you came to Flame Demon City, are you my, Lan Ling's servants?"
The few servants in the lead shuddered, feeling a bad premonition.
"As my servants, you guys instigated Yu Die to curse my son, your Little Master. And you guys even said that you want to exterminate my entire clan in front of outsiders. This is blatant betrayal. Servants betraying their masters, what punishment should they receive? "Lan Ling said coldly.
Immediately, the leading servant raised his head and said, "We are the servants of the Rakshasa royal family, not your servants. You marrying Princess Sha Yan is just marrying into the royal family. "
Lan Ling waved his hand, and Gou Li immediately brought over a large stack of contracts, saying, "But, all of your contracts are in my hands. In other words, you guys are no longer Princess Sha Yan's servants, but I, Lan Ling's servants."
Subsequently, Lan Ling said to the Crown Prince, "Crown Prince, it's rare for you to visit my Flame Demon City. Is the performance of beheading a beauty not enough? Next, I'll perform the skinning of a living person, how about it?"
After that, Lan Ling ordered coldly, "Men, skin the few leaders of the 59 servants and maids, and behead the rest. I want to give them to the Crown Prince as a gift!"
Then, dozens of Death Warriors stepped forward and skinned the few leaders of the servants and maids that Princess Sha Yan brought over.
The remaining dozens of people were pressed onto the ground, and their heads were beheaded one by one.
"Ah … Ah … Ah …"
A series of shrill cries resounded.
An incomparably bloody and terrifying scene unfolded in front of the Crown Prince.
And Dina, who pleaded for mercy for Yu Die, also stood on a high place, watching the scene coldly, without any intention of pleading for mercy.
The reason why she pleaded for mercy yesterday was because she didn't want her newborn baby to bear a blood debt.
But as long as she wasn't killed because of her baby, even if Yu Die was torn into pieces, she wouldn't even bat an eyelid.
She didn't have the slightest bit of the Virgin Mary disease.
Seeing this scene, the Crown Prince's scalp went numb.
Some of the servants weren't dead yet, and all of them were peeing their pants. Their eyes were filled with endless pleading and fear.
Their screams were unprecedentedly miserable and terrifying.
Not only Lan Ling, but the entire Flame Demon City's upper echelons were watching all of this coldly.
Lan Ling looked at the Crown Prince and smiled, "Your Highness, aren't you going to stop them? Some of them are your trusted aides, right? If you don't save them, it's very chilling. "
The Crown Prince's face twitched, but he didn't speak.
15 minutes later, all 59 servants and maids were dead. Most of them were beheaded, and the few leaders were skinned.
"Men, bring these human skins and skulls to His Highness. Bring them back to Luosha City." Lan Ling ordered.
Instantly, a few Death Warriors came forward and placed the bloody human skins in front of the Crown Prince.
Then, Lan Ling approached the Crown Prince and said, "If you want to go to Luosha City to complain about me, just Yu Die's head isn't enough. I'll send a few more human skins and dozens of heads as evidence of my sins. Go … Bring them back to complain!"
The Crown Prince looked at Lan Ling with a gaze filled with viciousness, and he said word by word, "Lan Ling, you really know how to court death. If you want to die, I'll fulfill your wish!"
Lan Ling also said word by word, "Tell Netherworld Prince, no matter what he wants to play, I'll play with him!"
