Na Xue didn't faint because she was out of stamina.
Even though she hadn't slept or rested for more than two months since the start of the war, she was a King Arthur, and a very powerful King Arthur at that. Therefore, it was impossible for her to run out of stamina.
The reason she fainted was a protective mechanism of her body, to prevent her mind from suffering further damage.
After a few hours, Princess Na Xue regained consciousness. She had finally calmed down.
Di Jun once again used the softest tone he could muster, "Retreat!"
"No …" Na Xue's gaze became crazy again, "This war isn't over yet, and I haven't lost yet. I firmly believe that Lan Ling and Tigné are still here. If we retreat, all our efforts will be wasted! "
Di Jun's face twitched.
The woman in front of him, whom he admired and loved the most, was really paranoid to the extreme.
"Di Jun, I'm serious. Do you believe me? Lan Ling and Tigné are really still here, but we can't find them. " Princess Na Xue's expression was calm, but her gaze was crazy, "Therefore, we must not retreat. Once we retreat, all our efforts will be wasted!"
"Na Xue …" Di Jun's voice rose a few octaves.
"Brother, I know what you're thinking. You think that I'm a sore loser and that I've lost my mind." Na Xue said, "But my intuition tells me that Lan Ling and Tigné are still here. The Tigné Army hasn't left either. As long as we continue to surround this place, we'll be able to catch both of them one day! "
Di Jun was silent for a long time, then said, "I know that there's a fine line between a genius and a lunatic. But I can't understand whether it's a genius or a lunatic. I only know two things. First, our army has been on this expedition for three months. Even though many high-level Blood-sucking Demons don't need direct supplies, most of the monsters and armies require astronomical amounts of supplies. The Rakshasa Race's territory in the Netherworld can no longer support them. Don't forget, we only have half of the Demon Tribe's territory. The supplies we brought from the northern wilderness are almost all used up. Especially the crystals, they won't last for more than a few days. "
Na Xue said, "Then let's ask the Heaven Killing King to support us. He now controls the territories and resources of five demon territories."
"For a despicable person like him, everything he offers comes with a price, and the ultimate price is for you to marry his son." Di Ming said, "The second point, and the most important one, is that you have to pay a price for everything he offers. Lan Ling's Hell Lightning had used up all of the Death Nether Energy in this tens of thousands of square kilometers of land. In other words, the Undead Warriors that we wanted to create would soon lose their source of energy. They wouldn't be able to turn into Undead Warriors. If that happens, our Blood-sucking Demon Clan will suffer great damage. "
This caused Na Xue's face to twitch violently.
Over ten million of Na Xue's Blood-sucking Demon Clan had died in this battle. There were only less than two million relatively intact corpses left. She was preparing to create an Undead Warrior army.
Of course, it didn't mean that two million corpses could create two million Undead Warriors. It would be amazing if she could create five hundred thousand Undead Warriors at most.
During the process of refining corpses, most of the corpses were just nourishment.
"The corpses that were about to become Undead Warriors are dying one by one," said Di Ming. "Even though our Blood-sucking Demon Clan is powerful, the Undead Army is our trump card, our ultimate power. Our Undead Army has suffered great losses in the past two months. If we can't replenish them in time, we might not be able to recover. "
"My master, the Blood-sucking Demon Clan and the Undead Warriors are our foundation!" Di Ming said, "If we lose our great power, what's the use even if we eliminate Lan Ling and Tigné? Won't we be working for the Heaven Killing King? "
Na Xue said, "Di Ming, you don't understand! You don't know how fast Lan Ling grows. Once we miss this chance to eliminate him, we might not be able to in the future. "
Di Ming said, "Since he grows so fast and is so powerful, why do we have to eliminate him? Why do we have to eliminate him? Doesn't that mean he's the destined master of the Demon Clan? "
"You're talking about fate! You're talking about rotten fate!" Na Xue raised her voice, "Why is the master of Eros the master of the Demon Clan? Why does everyone have to kneel before him? The Demon Emperor represents the rotten tradition. If we want the Demon Clan's civilization to rise again, we have to take a new path. We have to carry out a revolution against the rotten tradition. We have to defeat the dark mountain that is the legend of the Demon Emperor! "
Di Ming said, "You didn't believe in this at all. This is clearly Demon Buddha's theory."
Then, Di Jun said, "Your goal is the revival of the demon race's civilization. If Lan Ling represents an even greater power, if he can lead the demon race to a revival, then what right do you have to say that he is rotten?"
Na Xue's gaze turned cold. "What do you mean?"
Di Ming said, "The most fundamental reason is that you're not willing to be under someone else. You're full of ambition. In the northern wilderness, you're not willing to be under Demon Buddha. In the southern wilderness, you're not willing to be under Lan Ling either. So, all that talk about eliminating tradition and rot is fake. Maybe you want the Demon Clan to be revived, but it's a revival led by you, Na Xue. If it wasn't the revival of the Demon Race under your rule, but the revival of the Demon Race under Lan Ling's rule, then you would also annihilate Lan Ling completely, even if the Demon Race's civilization completely perished! "
Di Ming's words tore apart all pretense!
Na Xue's face twitched, killing intent bursting out of her eyes!
If it was anyone else, they'd be crushed to pieces if they dared to expose her inner thoughts and tear off her arrogant mask. So, even to Di Ming, she was filled with murderous intent.
But soon, she suppressed it. Her beautiful face flushed red and she let out a long sigh. "Di Ming, you're right. I'm not willing to be under someone else. I'm ambitious. If it's not me, Na Xue, leading the Demon Clan, I'd rather not have it. For this goal, I'm willing to pay any price! No one can control my fate other than me, whether it's the Demon Emperor or the heavens. I want to sit at the peak, even if it's just for a second, even if I'll be crushed to pieces in the next second. Then my life will be worth it! "
Instantly, the Imperial Jun became completely silent.
Na Xue said, "If you want to realize the Demon Clan's great revival, if you think Lan Ling is a better candidate, you can leave!"
Di Ming knelt down again.
"Na Xue, I've said it before. I don't care about the Demon Clan's revival or the God of Destiny." Di Ming sighed. "I only care about you … I hope you live happily and get what you want. I tore off your mask because I want you to face your true self. I don't want you to put on layers of masks and theories. You'll go crazy and destroy yourself! "
"Forget the so-called God of Destiny, forget the Demon Clan's revival. You, Na Xue, are fighting for yourself, for your fate, for your ambition." Di Ming said, "There's no need for any noble goal. It'd be great if the Demon Clan's revival can be accomplished, but it doesn't matter if it can't. Because at best, it is only a by-product of realizing one's ambition! "
Na Xue shuddered and looked at Di Ming.
Di Ming said, "I've only interacted with Lan Ling for a short time, but I feel like I have a good understanding of him. At least in his heart, the revival of the Demon Clan's civilization and dark justice are all bullsh * t. He only has one thought in his heart: I want to kill everyone in the Dragon Temple! So you're the same. Don't make your thinking simpler. You want to realize your ambition. You don't have to pay any price or use any means to achieve it. Whatever ideals, whatever ideals, they're all to fool the world. The Demon Queen might have ideals, the Winged King might have ideals, and so does Tigné. That's why they've all become his subjects. Lan Ling doesn't have ideals, so he's the King. His dream is to realize his own desires, and all the other great things that he risked his life for are just accessories to his desires. "
Na Xue calmly looked at Di Jun. Suddenly, she stretched out her arms and patted Di Jun. "Thank you, thank you for waking me up from my dream. I'm possessed!"
Di Ming said, "Since you're awake, let's retreat!"
"No, we can't …" Na Xue said, "We really can't. Once we retreat, it'll be difficult to eliminate Lan Ling again. This is a rare opportunity."
Di Ming said, "You're willing to pay the price of losing 500,000 undead warriors to wait for a chance to eliminate Lan Ling and Tigné, even if it's an illusory chance?"
"Yes!" Na Xue said, "Because I know that if we let Lan Ling leave, the consequences will be far more terrifying than losing 500,000 undead warriors!"
Di Ming looked at Na Xue and sighed deeply. No wonder he was just a subject.
Maybe he could break Na Xue's mental barrier and even persuade some of her thoughts. But he could never change her will.
Meanwhile, Na Xue's thoughts had just been subverted, but she still wouldn't go with the flow. She was still firm in some of her wills.
Most people thought that Na Xue's strategic thinking had already been changed by Di Jun, so how could a mere retreat be possible?
However, Na Xue could change her beliefs, but she couldn't change her will.
It was like some super figures in history. Their beliefs and beliefs would constantly change, from a republic to a federation, then to communism, then to socialism. The only thing that didn't change was the will to rule the world. The so-called beliefs and beliefs were all tools.
It was precisely because he understood this that even though Di Jun felt a stabbing pain in his heart, he did not insist on Na Xue's retreat. This was because he could not be sure if his insistence was correct.
"Continue to defend and never retreat. Wait for Lan Ling and Tigné to appear again. Kill Lan Ling and Tigné at all costs! " Na Xue said, "Because Heaven Killer King can compromise, but Lan Ling won't. There's no possibility of them working together!"
"Yes!" Di Ming said.
…
Na Xue was amazing!
Even in such a desperate situation, she still stuck to her beliefs and never retreated!
Although no one could prove it, her defense and siege were right! Lan Ling and Tigné were still here and didn't leave.
But most of the time, things didn't change according to her will.
After surrounding Cloud Disaster Royal City for five days, Heaven Killer King didn't want to persist anymore. He wanted to retreat and stop the supply of resources to Na Xue's army!
Na Xue was furious. She scolded in front of Di Ming, "He's useless!"
Then, Na Xue went to Heaven Killer King and emphasized her opinion again. Lan Ling and Tigné didn't leave. They were still in Cloud Disaster Royal City, but they were hiding in an unknown way.
She begged Heaven Killer King to hold on for another month and a half. After that, if Lan Ling and Tigné didn't appear, Na Xue and Heaven Killer King would retreat together!
Then, Heaven Killer King's gaze and tone became extremely eerie. "Princess Na Xue, are you so sure that Lan Ling and Tigné are still in Cloud Disaster Royal City?"
"Yes!" Na Xue said, "I believe in my instinct and my understanding of Lan Ling. I can guarantee that Lan Ling and Tigné are still in Cloud Disaster Royal City! "
Heaven Killer King said, "What if you're wrong?"
"Impossible!" Na Xue said.
Heaven Killer King's voice changed. "How about we make a contract? If Lan Ling and Tigné don't appear in one month and a half, you will marry my son, the Crown Prince of Heaven Killer King. How about that? "
Princess Na Xue's expression changed drastically.
Heaven Killer King didn't really want to retreat. He was waiting for her here.
He was really a despicable person. He would do anything to achieve his goal!
Now, she understood why the Omen's Blood Oath could be used as a piece of paper to clean up the mess in the Southern Wilderness. This was a country where people's beliefs had collapsed. The only things they believed in were power and benefits!
In such an environment where people would do anything to achieve their goals, it was not noble to stick to the contract. It was completely stupid!
Princess Na Xue closed her beautiful eyes and struggled! She wasn't struggling to agree. She was struggling to get herself killed!
Heaven Killer King said, "I won't force you at all. If you want to stay, then stay. I want to retreat. I'm even willing to provide you with five days' worth of resources! "
Na Xue laughed coldly in her heart. If Heaven Killer King retreated, Na Xue wouldn't need to stay.
Only if the two families worked together could they kill Lan Ling and Tigné. If Na Xue and her family stayed, they would die together.
"I don't believe that Lan Ling and Tigné are still here. But in order to marry my daughter-in-law, Princess Na Xue, I'm willing to pay the price!" Heaven Killer King said, "I don't care if I have to pay an astronomical price to besiege an empty city for one and a half months. So, as long as you make a contract, if Lan Ling and Tigné don't appear in one and a half months, you will marry my son, the Crown Prince of Heaven Killer King. My millions of troops will accompany you to besiege the city to the end! "
Princess Na Xue's chest heaved up and down. Her clothes were almost torn apart.
But she gradually calmed down and said slowly, "Okay, it's a deal!"
