Cloud Calamity Clan, Demon Alliance headquarters.
"Unfilial son, unfilial son, unfilial son …"
The Devil King was furious because his son, the Devil Crown Prince, had done something that crossed his bottom line.
He fancied himself clever and repeatedly disagreed with the Demon Alliance's decision. It was one thing for him to act like he was the only sober person in the world.
In just a few days, the Demon Alliance's army at the Demon Alliance's border had already exceeded 13 million troops. There were now another million troops.
Furthermore, the Demon Alliance and the Demon Empire's united front were still increasing their troops. It was as if they were ready for a decisive battle right from the start.
It was as if both sides had the intention to finish the battle in one go.
Everyone in the world could tell that the battle would definitely break out at the Demon Alliance's border.
However, the Devil Crown Prince still claimed that the Earth Demon Tribe was the Sky Demon Tribe's target. That was absurd. He even went to the Ground Demon Tribe to warn the Crown Prince.
The Devil King could just treat it as his son's own cleverness being the victim of his own cleverness.
However, what the Devil King could not accept was that the Devil Crown Prince planned to deploy his direct military force to the Earth Demon Tribe's defense line.
Not only that, he even summoned the Werewolf Tribe and the 17 Demon Clans to form a mercenary army to defend the Earth Demon Tribe's defense line.
The Devil King was both shocked and furious when he heard this news.
The Werewolf Tribe and the 17 Demon Clans could not even command him. Yet, they were mobilizing half of their forces just for the Young Devil King.
Although the Young Devil King was only the Crown Prince, the army under his command was a very powerful force.
Ten thousand Dragon Hawk Cavalrymen, three thousand Ghost Ray Cavalrymen, five hundred Black Blood Flying Cavalry, and various infantrymen added up to hundreds of thousands of troops.
The Werewolf Tribe and the 17 Demon Clans had mobilized a combined army of more than two hundred thousand!
Most of these two hundred thousand demons were aerial troops. There were also ten thousand Werewolf Cavalrymen.
What kind of elite force was this?
One had to know that the Demon Alliance's aerial troops stationed at the Demon Alliance's border were only about three hundred thousand.
However, the Devil Crown Prince wanted to deploy two hundred thousand aerial troops and ten thousand Werewolf Cavalrymen at the useless Earth Demon Tribe's defense line?
This was a powerful force that could even change the tides of the war. Why wasn't it deployed at the Demon Alliance's border? Why wasn't it used to defend the Rakshasa Tribe?
Devil King really admired and even envied his son's charisma. He could even command the Demon Race and the Wolf Race, not to mention that he had also recruited Lan Ling. Naturally, he could command the 30,000 centaurs.
This son of his was really amazing. He was really too outstanding.
However, wasn't he going against his father's wishes by deploying such a massive military force at the Earth Slaying Tribe's defensive line? Wasn't that disagreeing with the entire Demon Race Alliance?
To put it lightly, this was looking down on the Devil King. To put it more seriously, it could even be linked to an attempt to rebel.
Devil King looked at Elder Mo Kan, then shifted his gaze to his absolute confidant, High Priest Xi Ting.
Xi Ting could be said to be the most mysterious person in the entire Rakshasa Tribe. He did not hold any official position, and the so-called high priest was just something that others casually called him.
He only had one identity: Devil King's trusted advisor.
There were very few people who had seen him, and he rarely showed himself in front of others. No one even knew what race he was.
Because he wasn't a member of any race. He was a human.
"Advisor, is the news accurate?" Devil King asked.
Advisor Xi Ting bowed and said, "Your Majesty, the news is accurate. His Highness the Crown Prince's aerial army is already gathering. The 17 Demon Race and the Wolf Army are also gathering at Rakshasa City. They will finish gathering the day after tomorrow and head for the Earth Slaying Tribe's defensive line. "
"Unfilial son, unfilial son, unfilial son …" Devil King raged. "Send someone back to Rakshasa City on the Ghost Skates. Warn that unfilial son to immediately use this military force to defend Rakshasa City. If he dares to send this army to the Earth Slaying Tribe's defensive line, I'll cripple him … "
Elder Mo Kan's eyes lit up when he heard this.
However, Devil King did not say this out loud. Despite his rage, he still retained his rationality.
"No, Xi Ting, you go personally!" Devil King said, "Tell that unfilial son that if he dares to send this army to the Earth Slaying Tribe's defensive line, he'll bear the consequences!"
"Yes!" Advisor Xi Ting bowed. Then, he retreated and rode the Ghost Skate to Rakshasa City to convey Devil King's decree.
Devil King said, "Has there been any news from Ying Jun?"
Ying Jun was the Devil King's personal maid. Although she was not conferred the title of Consort, her status was no different from that of a Consort. She basically served by the Devil King's side at all times.
Two days ago, he had sent Ying Jun to Rakshasa City to ask Princess Sha Yan if she was willing to divorce Lan Ling.
"Consort Ying Jun hasn't returned yet," Elder Mo Kan said. "There's something I don't know how to tell His Majesty."
Devil King's eyes narrowed. "Speak."
Elder Mo Kan said, "I've just received news that Gutu and Lan Ling had a duel last night for Princess Sha Yan!"
Devil King's face twitched. "What was the result?"
Elder Mo Kan said, "Lan Ling suffered a crushing defeat and died at Gutu's hands."
"What? Lan Ling is dead? "Devil King was shocked as he stared at Mo Kan.
This group of people's revenge came so quickly. Lan Ling and Young Devil King had just worked together to kill Prince Leng, and they immediately killed Lan Ling.
This made Devil King suck in a breath of cold air.
"Mo Kan, this matter ends here. Don't involve the Crown Prince anymore," Devil King warned coldly.
"Yes, Your Majesty!" Elder Mo Kan said.
Elder Mokan continued, "Princess Sha Yan and Gu Tu are childhood sweethearts and have been in love ever since they were young. They are a match made in heaven. If Prince Gutu had not been cultivating under Zhong Lou the Venerable's tutelage, I'm afraid there wouldn't have been any problems. Now, we can correct the previous mistake and let the two of them get married. What do you think? "
Devil King closed his eyes.
His illegitimate son's methods were really ruthless. One move after another, every move was aimed at the Crown Prince's vital points.
Sha Yan and Young Devil King had the same father and mother. If even she sided with the Netherworld Prince, how unfavorable would the public opinion be for Young Devil King?
In the past, Devil King would not have agreed to this marriage.
However, the Rakshasa Crown Prince had just stepped over his bottom line. He had actually disregarded his authority as a father and the Rakshasa King, and had privately sent troops to the Rakshasa Tribe's defensive line. This was a complete defiance of the King's orders, and he was going against his husband's wishes.
The most taboo thing in a country was the appearance of two voices. There was no absolute unified will.
Moreover, the war was imminent. The Sky Demon Flag was so powerful, and this war relied heavily on the Sky Demon Clan's Demon Leopard Corps and Ghost Ray Corps. If he rejected this marriage, he, Devil King, would be in a bad position.
"If Lan Ling is dead, then so be it. Let's just betroth Sha Yan to Gutu. Let the two of them be even closer," Devil King said.
Elder Mo Kan said, "Yes, this old official will be the matchmaker. I'll go and tell this good news to Sky Demon King."
Coincidentally, the Sky Demon Flag Owner was at the Demon Alliance's headquarters these few days. Because of this war, he would be the vanguard general and needed to participate in the entire war.
Not only Sky Demon King, but the Demon Alliance's six major Demon Clans, dozens of Demon Generals, and Flag Owners were also at the Cloud Disaster Clan, making the final war arrangements.
In a few days, the Demon Alliance's highest command center would be transferred to the Devil Tribe's border to direct the war.
After Elder Mo Kan bid farewell to Devil King, he immediately went to the Cloud Sky Pavilion. In front of dozens of Flag Owners and hundreds of Demon Generals, he smiled at the Sky Demon Flag Owner and said, "Congratulations Sky Demon King, your son, Prince Gutu, is finally going to marry Princess Sha Yan."
Sky Demon King was surprised. "Really?"
Elder Mo Kan said, "Of course. Your Majesty, Devil King, has spoken."
Prince of the Netherworld laughed. "Lovers finally get married. My little sister Sha Yan has finally gotten married to Brother Gutu after so many twists and turns. This matter should be resolved!"
Immediately, dozens of devil flag owners and hundreds of devil generals present congratulated the Celestial Demon Monarch.
It was a lively scene!
…
After flying for a day, Princess Sha Yan finally landed in Cloud Disaster City on the Ghostly Ray.
Her beautiful face was weathered. She rushed to Devil King and knelt down. "Father, please seek justice for your daughter!"
Devil King was startled and said, "Little Yan, you … why did you come here?"
Princess Sha Yan said, "I've been wronged. Father, please seek justice for me."
"Haha …" Devil King caressed his daughter's head and said in a rare gentle tone, "I know everything. It's all because of your Crown Prince Brother's matchmaking. He married you to Lan Ling, causing you to suffer humiliation. Now that Lan Ling is dead, I can betroth you to my cousin Gu Tu. The two of you are childhood sweethearts, you can marry each other. You can do as you wish! "
Princess Sha Yan kowtowed. "Father, I want to sue Gutu and the wet nurse, Hei Sha."
Devil King's expression changed slightly. "What?"
Princess Sha Yan kowtowed. "Father, my husband, Lan Ling, and I love each other very much. Mother and son, Hei Sha and Gutu, tried to break up my husband and Lan Ling in order to attack Crown Prince Brother Brother. Not only that, they were insane. The wet nurse, Madam Black Sha, took advantage of my trust and drugged me. She also tried to make Cousin Brother Brother Gu Tu rape me. My husband, Lan Ling, almost died in Gutu's hands to protect me. "
"What?" Devil King's expression changed.
He was greatly shocked. First, Lan Ling was not dead. Second, Madam Black Sha and Gutu looked down on him, Devil King, and tried to rape his daughter, Princess Sha Yan.
"Lan Ling is not dead?" Devil King asked in a trembling voice.
Princess Sha Yan said, "My husband is not dead, but he almost died. Father, please give me justice and punish the traitor Gutu. "
Devil King was so angry that her whole body trembled.
Audacious, audacious!
Most importantly, not long ago, Elder Mokan said that Gutu and Lan Ling had a duel and killed Lan Ling.
As for Luosha King, in order to beat the Crown Prince and to rope in the Sky Devil Flag, and because he knew that Sha Yan and Lan Ling were not on good terms, to the point that they were like enemies, he betrothed Princess Sha Yan to Gu Tu.
A king's words were hard to change.
Once he said it, it was a golden word that could not be changed.
But now, his daughter, Princess Sha Yan, came and said that she and Lan Ling were very loving, and it was Gutu who tried to rape her. In order to protect her, Lan Ling almost died.
Now, Lan Ling was not dead, and he said that he would betroth Sha Yan to Gutu.
Mokan, Black Demon King, Gutu, and Hei Sha were very bold. They were deceiving the king.
Princess Sha Yan desperately kowtowed and said, "Imperial Father, please seek justice for me and my husband. Punish the Black Veil Saint and Gutu severely!"
Devil King said with a cold expression, "Someone, summon Hei Sha and Gutu to see me quickly!"
…
At the same time, in Devil City.
Military Advisor Xi Ting paid a visit to the Young Devil King and brought the Young Devil King's decree.
"The Crown Prince is not to send any troops to the Earth Demon Tribe's defensive line, or you will have to bear the consequences!"
Young Devil King said, "Is this all of Father's decrees?"
Military Advisor Xi Ting said, "Yes, His Majesty even said that if you disobey the decree, he will abolish your position as Crown Prince, but he took it back halfway!"
Young Devil King was silent for a long time.
Military Advisor Xi Ting bowed and said, "Your Highness, please reconsider!"
Young Devil King said, "Military Advisor's wisdom is unparalleled. What do you think? Who will be Heaven Demon King and Princess Tigné's first target to conquer? "
Military Advisor Xi Ting hesitated for a moment and said, "I agree with Your Highness."
"Then why didn't Military Advisor say it?" Young Devil King said.
Military Advisor Xi Ting said, "As a human, how can I have the right to speak?"
Young Devil King said, "Then I will have to trouble Military Advisor to tell Father that I will be sending my direct troops. As for the Demon Race Allied Army and the Werewolf Army, they are not part of the Devil Race's military power. I have the right to send them anywhere I want. If Father wants to abolish my position as Crown Prince because of this … I can't ignore the danger, so please ask him to abolish me! "
…
Flame Demon City!
Lan Ling laughed in his heart and said, "Mirror, is there anything in this world that you don't know? Why don't you spit it all out at once? "
Mirror Demon King said, "Please forgive me, Master."
Lan Ling said, "Then tell me, are the one million imperial guards of the Ghost King Empire still around? Have they found the curse of immortality? "
Mirror Demon King said, "My great Master, I really don't know about this. It's really a fifty-fifty chance."
Lan Ling said, "Then where is the Infernal Sea?"
Mirror Demon King said, "At the end of the southeast sea, which is also the end of the world. Legend has it that no one who went to the Infernal Sea ever came back, no matter which branch of the demon race they are."
Then, a map appeared in Lan Ling's mind.
The Infernal Sea, the so-called end of the world, was about 39,000 miles away from the Flame Demon Flag.
The three Chimeras flew at full speed, and they could reach it in two days.
With just the troops at hand, it was impossible to completely destroy the Heavenly Demon Flag and exterminate the Heavenly Demon Family.
The one million remaining eternal army of the Ghost King Empire was Lan Ling's greatest hope.
As long as he obtained this army, Lan Ling could sweep the entire Heavenly Demon Flag, and he could even make the Flame Demon Flag's military power even more powerful.
So it seemed like Lan Ling had no other choice.
At daybreak.
Lan Ling took Gou Li and rode the three Chimeras out to sea, flying towards the Infernal Sea in the southeast direction to search for the one million eternal army of the Ghost King Empire.
