There were a million imperial guards of the Demon King Empire.
There were 800,000 infantrymen, 170,000 cavalrymen, and 30,000 aerial troops.
All the soldiers were still wearing armor, but there were no bodies under the armor, only souls and skeletons.
Not only the soldiers, but the war horses and flying mounts were also reduced to skeletons.
Therefore, this was the real skeleton army.
The Cursed Eternal World was more like a special energy field, an energy world between life and death, between Yin and Yang.
Back then, Lan Ling was in the ruins of the Misfortune Demon Capital, which was also a world between Yin and Yang.
The only difference was that in the ruins of the Misfortune Demon Capital, time did not flow.
But in the Cursed Eternal World, time flowed normally.
And the Cursed Eternal World was a part of the energy gate, an unfinished energy gate.
From this, it could be seen that the Ancient Demon Emperor obtained the relevant knowledge from the power of the stars, and then began the construction of the energy gate. But perhaps his cultivation was not high enough, or perhaps he was interrupted, the energy gate was only half completed, forming a Cursed Eternal World.
All life that entered this Cursed Eternal World would be completely immortal, as if they were cut off from the Netherworld.
The skeleton army surged out of the exit of the Cursed Eternal World like a tide.
After a few hours, the one million skeleton army gathered on the surface of the sea.
Without ships, the skeleton army stood on the surface of the sea. Without their bodies, they seemed weightless, easily floating on the surface of the sea.
Moreover, this immortal army didn't need any supplies, food, or clothing.
Thousands of years ago, this army was invincible in the Demon Realm. Now, they had transformed into a skeleton army, and their combat strength was even more shocking.
"North, advance!" Following the Rakshasa Mother's order, the one million skeleton army crossed the sea and headed north.
The one million skeleton army covered dozens of miles.
Wherever the one million skeleton army passed, the sky was filled with dark clouds, and the sun could not shine.
Wherever the one million skeleton army passed, it was like night.
Like the green tide of hell, they surged towards the Demonic Flag.
…
Inside Rakshasa City!
With the spread of the news, everyone knew about the terrifying military order signed by the Young Rakshasa King.
Everyone knew that the Young Rakshasa King had disobeyed his father's edict and insisted on sending a 200,000 strong aerial expeditionary force to the Rakshasa Tribe's defensive line.
If his judgment was wrong, if the Demon Empire's united front did not attack the Groundhog Race, then the Young Rakshasa King would be stripped of his position as Crown Prince.
Moreover, the contents of this military order spread throughout the entire Rakshasa Tribe's territory at the fastest speed possible.
Some people wanted to cut off the Young Rakshasa King's escape route.
Furthermore, he created public opinion, claiming that the Young Rakshasa King was siding with an outsider. Instead of staying behind to protect the Rakshasa race, he went to protect the Rakshasa race. He was the Rakshasa race's crown prince, not the Rakshasa race's crown prince.
Some people with ulterior motives tried to create a situation where the wall was down and everyone would give it a shove, trying to attack the Luocha Crown Prince's image in the minds of his subjects.
However, things did not go as planned. The entire Rakshasa City, and even the entire Rakshasa race's territory, remained silent.
Other than the Netherworld Prince's direct subordinates, no one else attacked the Luosha Crown Prince. In fact, the majority of the Rakshasa people were filled with respect for the Rakshasa Crown Prince.
Of course, they did not understand the strategy of the Demon Alliance's higher-ups. They also did not know if the Heaven Demon King would attack the Rakshasa race or the Groundhog Race first. Just by looking at the large number of troops gathered at the Rakshasa race's borders, most of the Rakshasa people felt that the war would break out at the Rakshasa race's borders.
However, in the Demon Alliance's territory, they respected heroes the most.
Even if there were millions of people, they would still go forward. This kind of aura was enough to make people respect him.
The Rakshasa Crown Prince had single-handedly resisted the will of the Demon Alliance's six Great Demon Kings. He had even used his position as Crown Prince as a wager to insist on sending the expeditionary army to the Groundhog Race.
Was he doing this for his own benefit?
Of course not. He was doing this for the greater good, for the entire Demon Alliance.
Such a heroic spirit made countless people respect him.
As for the Rakshasa Crown Prince sending the troops that were supposed to be defending the Rakshasa race to the Groundhog Race, would the Rakshasa people bear a grudge against him?
If this were a human country, it would be very possible and almost certain.
But this was the Demon Race's territory, even though the upper echelons had become politicized and profit-oriented.
Even though the higher-ups were already politicized and did not fear death, the Rakshasa people at the bottom of the hierarchy were still brave and unafraid of death. They yearned for bravery and war. The Young Rakshasa King sending the expeditionary army to the Groundhog Race would instead satisfy their pride.
Look, the Groundhog Race claims to be the strongest? You actually need the Rakshasa race to send troops to save you?
Therefore, after the military pledge incident, the Young Rakshasa King's popularity did not decrease. Instead, it increased.
However, this did not change anything.
If the Demon Alliance's united front did not attack the Groundhog Race but the Rakshasa race, the Rakshasa Crown Prince's position would definitely be lost.
In that case, was it possible that the Heaven Demon King would fight on two fronts?
What if he attacked the Rakshasa race on one side and the Rakshasa race on the other?
The Young Rakshasa King and Lan Ling had analyzed this many times and completely eliminated this possibility.
Firstly, the Rakshasa King had gathered the main forces of both sides at the Rakshasa border. This battle was destined to be a long one.
Secondly, given the Rakshasa King's character, it was very easy for him to become an appeaser. They had always been the target of the Heaven Killer King. As long as the Heaven Killer King did not attack the Rakshasa Clan and displayed unparalleled power, the Rakshasa Clan would most likely surrender to him.
The Rakshasa King valued his reputation very much. Once the Heaven Demon King attacked the Rakshasa race, it would be a battle to the death. The Rakshasa King would lose the chance to convince him to surrender.
The Rakshasa King was a very complicated person.
He was very smart, and his eyes were very sharp. He was filled with a sense of danger. Therefore, he was the first to discover the Heaven Demon King's ambition. A few years ago, he had been working hard to establish the Demon Alliance.
He valued his reputation very much. For the sake of his reputation, he would do anything.
Therefore, even though he knew that the Young Rakshasa King was the best successor, for the sake of his own dignity, he still did not hesitate to ask the Rakshasa King to write the military pledge. This caused the crisis of changing the crown prince. He knew that once the crown prince was changed, the Rakshasa race would be in great danger.
He was very easily swayed by his emotions. Once he said something, he would not take it back. Therefore, even though he knew that many things were wrong and he did not want to do them, he still did them.
However, this person's heart was always full of compromises.
For example, the Lady in Black Veil had repeatedly humiliated him. Gu Tu had even tried to rape and humiliate his daughter, Princess Sha Yan.
Even though he was very angry, he had still compromised in the end. In order to protect his reputation, for the authority of his words, and to teach the Young Rakshasa King a lesson, he had forced Sha Yan and Lan Ling to divorce and married Sha Yan to Gu Tu.
Therefore, this person could not be described with a single word.
Regardless of whether he was fierce on the outside or intelligent and brilliant, these words could not be used to describe this person.
Because of this character trait, the Heaven Demon King had always regarded the Rakshasa King as a person who believed in surrendering.
However, the Rakshasa King was different. He was an ambitious, selfish, and domineering person. On the surface, he was not as intelligent and farsighted as the Rakshasa King. However, he was very stubborn and would definitely not surrender. He would rather die in battle than surrender.
Based on this analysis, the Young Rakshasa King and Lan Ling concluded that the Heaven Demon King's first target would definitely be the Rakshasa race. There would definitely be no surprises.
…
Heaven-Reaching Pavilion, Heaven-Piercing Pavilion, Heaven-Piercing Pavilion.
The Heaven Demon King's Crown Prince said, "Father, the Young Rakshasa King used his position as the Crown Prince as a wager to send over 200,000 expeditionary troops to the Rakshasa race's defense line."
The Heaven Demon King sighed and said, "Rakshasa, that fool. He has a good son. It's a pity that his intelligence is not enough to convince such an outstanding son. "
The Heaven Demon King said, "Then how should we deal with this?"
The Heaven Demon King said, "Everything will continue. Although the Rakshasa Crown Prince has caused trouble for our lightning battle, he will only be able to buy us some time at most. He will be able to extend the time it takes for us to wipe out the Rakshasa race, but he won't be able to change the overall situation."
The Heaven Demon King said, "Once the war breaks out and proves that the Rakshasa Crown Prince is right, the Demon Alliance will immediately let him take command and lead the Demon Alliance's army. What should we do then?"
The Heaven Demon King shook his head and said, "That's impossible. You think too highly of the Six Great Demon Kings. If the war breaks out and proves that they are wrong and only the Rakshasa Crown Prince is right, they will only suppress him even more and isolate him even more. "
The Heaven Demon King said, "Then should we get rid of him immediately in case he becomes an obstacle to our conquest strategy?"
"No!" Princess Tigné, who had been silent all this while, said, "I want to defeat him on the battlefield. Don't kill him."
The Heaven Demon King laughed loudly and said, "Did you hear that? Don't touch him. Let Tigné defeat him completely on the battlefield and then kill him! "
…
Rakshasa City!
Over the past few days, Rakshasa City had been deathly silent.
Everyone was waiting for the war to break out. Would it break out at the border of the Rakshasa race or the border of the Rakshasa race?
Was the Rakshasa Crown Prince right or wrong?
No one dared to make a sound. It was as if everyone in the huge capital was holding their breath.
However …
This morning, the commotion and loud noises completely broke the silence.
Huge crystal cannons sounded. The radiance of the crystal fireworks almost blocked the sunlight.
Festive and intense music resounded throughout the entire Rakshasa City.
Every street in Rakshasa City was filled with fresh flowers.
Every house that led to Princess Sha Yan's residence was wrapped in red silk.
An unprecedentedly huge wedding procession appeared in Rakshasa City.
The successor of Venerable Zhonglou, the young master of the Sky Demon Flag, Gu Tu, was going to marry Princess Sha Yan.
The elder brother of the Rakshasa king, the Rakshasa royal elder, Mo Kan, was going to officiate the wedding.
The Sky Demon Flag sent a hundred thousand cavalrymen and ten thousand aerial cavalrymen into Rakshasa City to marry Princess Sha Yan.
This was an unprecedented extravagance, even more so than when the young Rakshasa king married Consort Nishang.
This sudden wedding shocked the entire Rakshasa race and Rakshasa City.
Many people were shocked. Wasn't Princess Sha Yan already married? Wasn't she the wife of Lan Ling, the master of the Fire Demon Flag? Why was the Sky Demon Flag here to escort the bride?
Was this robbery?
The huge wedding procession arrived outside Princess Sha Yan's mansion and surrounded the entire mansion.
Crown Prince Gu Tu, who was riding a huge Ghost Ray, wore a golden embroidered robe and looked like a luxurious groom. He hovered above Princess Sha Yan's residence and shouted, "Where is my wife, Sha Yan? Your husband is bringing you back to Sky Demon City to get married. "
Princess Sha Yan's residence was silent.
Crown Prince Gu Tu shouted again, "Where is my wife, Princess Sha Yan? Your husband is bringing you back to Sky Demon City to get married. "
His voice was so loud that it almost resounded through the entire Rakshasa City.
After a full fifteen minutes, Princess Sha Yan appeared.
She looked up at her cousin, Crown Prince Gu Tu, and said coldly, "I already have a man I love, I already have a husband, and that is the master of the Fire Demon Flag, Lan Ling. What show are you singing now?"
Crown Prince Gu Tu laughed and said, "Lan Ling? That lowly human bastard? How could he be worthy of Your Highness? After being defeated by me in the duel, he almost lost his life and fled like a stray dog. Now, His Majesty, the Rakshasa King, has already annulled your marriage and betrothed you to me. You are naturally my wife. "
Princess Sha Yan said, "As long as I don't agree, no one can annul my marriage with my husband, Lan Ling. Get out of here immediately, don't provoke my husband's dignity, or you will have to bear the consequences … "
"Bear the consequences …" Crown Prince Gu Tu held his stomach and laughed, "Just by relying on that human bastard, Lan Ling? If not for the crown prince's support, he would be worse than a dog, and he would have to bear the consequences? After being defeated by me, he fled like a stray dog. Could it be that he still wants to take revenge on me? I'm waiting for his revenge, let him come … hahaha! "
Princess Sha Yan's expression turned serious, and she put on a brocade robe.
On this robe, the totem of the Fire Demon Flag was embroidered with golden threads. She said seriously, "As the wife of the Fire Demon Flag's master, I represent the Fire Demon Flag and the Fire Demon Council to officially announce to the Sky Demon Flag that you all should immediately get out of my Princess Sha Yan's residence and apologize to the Fire Demon Flag's master, Lan Ling, immediately. Otherwise, the Fire Demon Flag will use any means to take revenge on you. Once the Fire Demon Flag strikes, don't say that you didn't warn us!"
Princess Sha Yan's serious expression surprised Elder Mo Kan and Crown Prince Gu Tu.
Then, Crown Prince Gu Tu laughed loudly, "As the saying goes, a macaque is crowned with a crown. That bastard Lan Ling, who has just obtained the Fire Demon Flag and suddenly became rich after a long period of poverty, can't wait to put on a show. Such a clown's behavior really makes people laugh."
After saying that, he really held his stomach and laughed loudly, pretending to laugh until his stomach hurt.
"Laugh, why aren't you laughing …" Crown Prince Gu Tu said.
In an instant, countless people below also laughed loudly, humiliating Lan Ling and Princess Sha Yan.
Princess Sha Yan said sternly, "Elder Mo Kan, as well as everyone in Rakshasa City as witnesses, my Flaming Demon Flag has already issued a solemn warning, but the Heavenly Demon Flag is still brazenly humiliating my husband, Lan Ling. Then, no matter what happens next, the Sky Demon Flag only has itself to blame. "
Princess Sha Yan's words used up all of her magic power, resounding throughout the whole Rakshasa City.
Then, Princess Sha Yan said coldly, "I will count down from ten, get out of my Princess Residence immediately!"
Crown Prince Gu Tu's expression turned cold, "Princess Sha Yan, His Majesty Rakshasa King betrothed you to me, but you actually rejected the marriage? Your behavior, where do you put the Sky Demon Flag's face? If you continue to be stubborn, your husband can only use special methods. In any case, as long as I bring you home, I will f * ck you eight to ten times, and you will be obedient. There is no problem between a man and a woman that cannot be solved with sex. If ten times isn't enough, I will do it eleven times, hahaha! "
Princess Sha Yan counted down, "Ten, nine, eight, seven …"
Crown Prince Gu Tu also counted down, "Five, four, three, two, one …"
When the countdown ended, the Sky Demon Flag's Crown Prince Gu Tu directly ordered, "Men, bring Princess Sha Yan into the bridal sedan and bring her back to Sky Demon City!"
This Crown Prince Gu Tu actually wanted to forcefully snatch Lan Ling's wife, Princess Sha Yan, back to Sky Demon City.
