Lan Ling was really surprised that the Devil Priest Crown Prince would come to visit him.
So he had to stop his journey in the Witch Kingdom City and leave the Witch Kingdom City with Zhi Ning and her son, and Fang Qingzhuo and her daughter.
Although Yi Xin, the high priest of the Holy Demon Palace, didn't say anything, her eyes were really full of reluctance.
To be honest, Lan Ling had never seen such a look in her eyes. It was too devout, too fanatical.
This kind of look was like the most infatuated woman looking at her lover who was about to go far away, extremely reluctant but unable to hold him back. It was also like the left-behind children in the countryside looking at their parents who were about to go out to work, extremely reluctant but unable to hold them back.
This was the power of faith!
Before, Lan Ling thought that the loyalty of the Witch Kingdom to him was like that of the Centaurs.
But now he knew that the people of the Witch Kingdom, especially the people of the Holy Demon Palace, had a much deeper faith and loyalty to Lan Ling.
The Centaurs only knelt down and worshipped him after Lan Ling showed some kind of divine power, and the faith and loyalty of the Witch Kingdom was completely unreasonable.
They regarded themselves as the women of the Demon Emperor, and also as the daughters of the Demon Emperor.
In short, this was an extremely deep and complicated emotion, and it was deeply rooted in their blood and genes, never to be changed.
So when Lan Ling walked in the city of the Witch Kingdom, he deeply felt that he was a god, especially in the eyes of the high priests of the Holy Demon Palace and the older women of the Witch Kingdom.
The young warriors of the Witch Kingdom would also look at Lan Ling with curious and provocative eyes, full of the excitement and boldness of a girl.
And the way the older people of the Witch Kingdom looked at Lan Ling was really completely indescribable.
"I will come to see you often." Lan Ling couldn't help but reach out and touch the head of the high priest Yi Xin.
"Yes!" The eyes of this white-haired and beautiful high priest in her 70s showed an intoxicated and happy light, and then she bowed deeply.
…
After returning to the Flame Demon City, Lan Ling met the Devil Priest Crown Prince!
This was an elegant person!
Yes, this was a very, very elegant person!
"Demonic Kingdom's Crown Prince, Xiao Bai, greets the Emperor of the Balrog Empire, Your Majesty Lan Ling!" The Demonic Kingdom's Crown Prince bowed to Lan Ling meticulously.
Little White was his name.
In fact, the names of the devil race's bigwigs were usually very down-to-earth.
For example, the Young Rakshasa King was originally called Sugar Man, but he later changed his name to Tangren. The Tian Sha Crown Prince's name was Xiao Dao, while the Devil Kingdom's Crown Prince's name was Xiao Bai.
On the other hand, an illegitimate child like the Netherworld Prince needed to be given a lofty and dignified name.
"Greetings to your father." Lan Ling said, "Please sit!"
After the two sat down, Gou Li served them tea.
The Demonic Monk Crown Prince said, "I came to visit Your Majesty Lan Ling this time because I have a few questions to ask you!"
Lan Ling said, "Please speak, but I might disappoint you."
The Demonic Monk Crown Prince said, "The first question is, what do you think the ultimate goal of a civilization is?"
Lan Ling said, "I think it should be survival and freedom!"
The Demonic Monk Crown Prince's eyes lit up and he said, "Your Majesty's words have really touched my heart and revealed the true meaning. All the actions of a civilization, all the wars, all the production, are ultimately for two goals: survival and freedom. The so-called freedom is the liberation of all kinds of shackles. For example, a long time ago, people in human countries used manpower to hoe the land. They wanted to free their hands and not let themselves be so tired, so they used oxen to plow the land. This is a kind of freedom. For example, when we walk on the ground every day, we like to observe the ground from a height of less than two meters, which is very limited. We climb mountains, but after climbing mountains, we still feel that it is not high enough, so we want to fly. So we tame all kinds of flying demon beasts in order to free our vision and see further and higher. The primitive human countries found that gathering could no longer support so many people and could no longer survive, so they learned to farm. "
Lan Ling said, "When a world can no longer survive, they need the ability to go to another world."
The Demonic Monk Crown Prince said, "So all civilizations are for survival and freedom. But some people say that the ultimate goal of any civilization is only one, and that is eternity. What do you think? "
Lan Ling said, "In a sense, this view is correct, but it is very pessimistic. It is like saying that a person's focus is death, and death is a kind of eternity. "
The Demonic Monk Crown Prince said, "Death is eternity and the end. Whether it was for a person or a civilization, it was the same. This sentence is completely impeccable. What do you think? "
Lan Ling shook his head and said, "Reincarnation is eternity, and death is just a part of the reincarnation. For example, a person will definitely die. But the children and grandchildren he gives birth to are the continuation of life. Even if a world is destroyed, it is also brewing the power of rebirth. Even if the whole universe is completely destroyed, it will erupt again after countless years. "
"Clap clap clap clap …" The Demonic Monk Crown Prince applauded and said, "I often debate with Na Xue. Her view is that eternity is the ultimate goal of a life, or a civilization. I don't agree, but I can't win against her. Your theory has given me great inspiration. "
"Unfortunately, our views can't be proven, because there is no absolute truth in this world," Lan Ling said.
"But I think you are right. You have deeply inspired me." The Demonic Monk Crown Prince said, "Then let me ask you a second question. Between survival and freedom, which do you think is more important?"
Lan Ling said, "There is a poem. Love is precious, but life is more expensive. For freedom, both can be abandoned."
The Demonic Monk Crown Prince smiled and drank the tea.
Lan Ling said, "This poem is very noble and great. Whether it is the person who wrote this poem or the person who put it into practice, they are all very great people. In any world, they are like torches, illuminating the road ahead. But … at the end of the day, survival is more important than freedom! No matter in politics or civilization, romanticism is not tolerated! "
The Demonic Monk Crown Prince poured his own tea and raised his cup to Lan Ling. "I really regret not having met you earlier!"
Then he asked, "Then let me ask a third question. What stage is the Demon Race in in terms of survival and freedom?"
Lan Ling said, "Survival, to be exact, survival!"
The Demonic Monk Crown Prince bowed and said, "Thank you, Your Majesty Lan Ling!"
This one sentence was filled with endless complex emotions and secrets.
Because Lan Ling's answer was equivalent to affirming the current situation of the Demonic Monk Empire, affirming all the strategies of the Demonic Monk Empire against the Dragon Temple at this time, and did not make the Demonic Monk Empire into the ranks of the traitors of the Demon Race.
At this time, no words could describe the shock and amazement in Lan Ling's heart.
The most difficult thing in this world is to defeat a person in thinking, which is to make another person agree with your thinking.
From the beginning of the conversation, the Demonic Monk Crown Prince controlled the whole rhythm.
The first question was, what was the ultimate goal of a civilization? Survival and development, but it could also be extended to survival and freedom. Development was to liberate one's body and spirit.
The second question was, which was more important, survival or freedom? Of course, survival.
The third question was, what stage was the Demon Race in now? Of course, it was the stage of survival.
After these three questions, the Demonic Monk Crown Prince completely set the tone in front of Lan Ling. The Demonic Monk Empire was in line with the justice of the Demon Race, even if it had a rather ambiguous relationship with the Dragon Temple at this time.
"The fourth question is a personal question. You can choose not to answer it," the Demonic Monk Crown Prince said.
Lan Ling said, "Go ahead."
The Demonic Monk Crown Prince said, "Between the Ancient Dragon and the Ancient Gods And Demons, who do you think is more powerful?"
Wow!
Lan Ling's heart was filled with astonishment!
He had never seen such … such a powerful person!
Even the Tangs couldn't compare with such amazing talent.
This question alone was a fatal blow to Lan Ling! It even made it impossible for Lan Ling to turn the tables!
Lan Ling thought for a while and said, "It should be the Dragon who is more powerful!"
Without a doubt, this was the absolutely correct answer. It couldn't be completely denied just because Lan Ling chose to become the Demon Emperor.
Look at the Aurora Gate, then look at the organization of the Dragon's believers, the Dragon Temple, the Temple of the Sky, and the ultimate power on the moon. They were not just a little bit more powerful than the Demon Race. Most of the time, the Demon Race was scattered. The Ertian The Great and the Emperor Of Doom were just short-lived.
Even in the Heavens, the Dragon was more powerful than the Ancient Gods And Demons.
So here was the problem!
Eros was the combination of the will of the Dragon and the Gods And Demons. So the will of the Dragon and the Gods And Demons would definitely compete for the control of the host?
So why did they think that the more powerful Dragon would lose?
Since the will of the Dragon would win in the end, then why did they think that the so-called Lord of Eros was the Demon Emperor and could completely represent the will of the Demon Race civilization?
And history had indeed proved that the will of the Dragon had won in the end!
This was irrefutable!
After the Ertian The Great destroyed the Temple of the Sky, on the eve of the counterattack against the Moon's Dragon Temple's ultimate power, he suddenly disappeared without a trace, causing the glorious Demon Race Empire to be destroyed.
The Emperor Of Doom tried to use the power of the stars to bombard the Temple of the Sky. As a result, the power of the stars blasted the entire Demon Capital of Doom into ruins.
The key was that the Star Magic Weapon was controlled by the Emperor Of Doom alone. Only he knew to use this object to bombard the Temple of the Sky, and only he knew when to bombard it.
Why did the power of the stars directly hit the Emperor Of Doom the second before he bombarded the Temple of the Sky? Why did he bombard the Emperor Of Doom and the Demon Capital of the Empire of Doom into ruins?
All history proved that the so-called Lord of Eros had become a disaster for the Demon Race.
There were many things that could not be thought about in detail. Thinking about it would make people's hair stand on end. This was the fear of thinking about it in detail.
The Devil Path Crown Prince did not say a word behind this. Instead, he bowed deeply to Lan Ling and said, "Thank you for your frankness."
The whole debate was over!
The Devil Path Crown Prince won. He only had one argument. The Devil Path Empire was more representative of the interests and justice of the Demon Race than the Balrog Empire. Lan Ling could not refute him.
Then he got up and bowed to Lan Ling again and said, "Thank you for your hospitality and your undisguised conversation with me. Goodbye!"
Lan Ling said, "I will see you off!"
"I dare not …" the Devil Path Crown Prince said.
Then Lan Ling walked him to the gate of Flame Demon City.
"Please wait!" The Devil Path Crown Prince said, "I sincerely invite you to visit the Devil Path Empire at a suitable time. My father is very eager to meet you."
"It would be my honor!" Lan Ling said.
The Devil Path Crown Prince hesitated for a moment and said, "Your Majesty Lan Ling, please pay attention and be careful of the traces of the Dragon Temple!"
Lan Ling said, "Okay, thank you!"
The Devil Path Crown Prince took his leave and headed directly to the sea in the west. This was a signal to Lan Ling that he was going directly north to return to the Devil Path Empire!
…
When he returned to Flame Demon City, the Tang people were already waiting there.
The two of them were silent, and no one spoke.
"Have you dealt with him before?" Lan Ling asked.
"No!" The Tang people said, "But … he made me feel inferior. His talent is far above mine, in every aspect."
"Yes …" Lan Ling said, "He's so amazing. He's the first one I've seen since I came to this world. He directly defeated me in theory, defeating my Flame Demon Empire, proving that his Demon Empire represented the benefits and future of the Demon race's civilization, causing his Demon Empire to become the only hope of the Demon race's civilization. And the key is that I have no room to refute! "
The Tang people said, "To be honest, after listening to his words, I was almost shaken for a moment. My loyalty to the Balrog Empire and my hope in you were shaken! Especially the last question he asked, who is more powerful, the Dragon or the Gods And Demons? "
This is how this world is. Being defeated in the highest sense is equivalent to being pulled out of one's bones.
This is just like in 1971, when the People's Republic of China officially replaced the Republic of China in Taiwan as a permanent member of the United Nations.
This is equivalent to the entire world, the Republic of China has been completely rejected in name, with no hope of making a comeback.
Of course, the debate between the Devil Path Crown Prince and Lan Ling has not yet reached this level of lethality, but it is very similar.
The Tang people said, "Your Majesty, are you affected?"
The Tang people were very concerned about this question. If Lan Ling, as the supreme ruler, was defeated in ideology and spirit, there would be no hope for the future.
Lan Ling shook his head and said, "Of course not!"
The Tang people said, "Why not? Because his words are completely irrefutable. "
Lan Ling said, "I am not interested in all theories, all doctrines, and all ideals to revitalize the demon civilization. All doctrines, all theoretical weapons, are just my tools. I use what is suitable for me, and throw aside what is not suitable for me. Under my leadership, there may be a revival of the demon race in the future, but that is just an accessory to my personal desires. For me, there is only one goal, and that is to destroy the Dragon Temple. Anyone who stands in front of this goal must die. As for the great ideals and the like, I am very sorry, but we will talk about it after I destroy the Dragon Temple. "
The Tang people were stunned, and his mouth was open for a long time. After a few minutes, he said, "My … God!"
Lan Ling said to the Tang people, "You were fooled by the Devil Path Crown Prince because you read too many books and think too much."
The Tang people said after a long time, "I found that only those who treat history as a whore can make history."
Lan Ling said, "Of course, you worship a woman like a goddess and put yourself in a humble position. Of course it is difficult to sleep with her."
The Tang people were silent for a long time, and then said again, "My … God!"
