In fact, Lan Ling had thought of this question countless times.
Whether it was Ertian The Great or Emperor Doom, why did they want to destroy the world?
When these two Demon Emperors went on the Northern Expedition, they had almost destroyed the human civilization. It shouldn't be hatred. After all, the two Emperors hadn't suffered from Lan Ling. They hadn't been betrayed by their human wives, and they hadn't been killed.
Now he understood!
This was a Planar War, a Planar War.
Once they occupied a piece of land, it meant that they would completely change the energy attribute of the land from the Divine Dragon Attribute to the Demon Race Attribute.
Under the Demon's energy, humans with Dragon blood wouldn't be able to survive.
So, this was really a game of 0 and 1!
Only one side could survive. The other side had to fall.
Construction in the Northern Wilderness was in full swing. One after another, the Tower of the Gods and Demons rose from the ground. Lan Ling's energy recovery speed was getting faster and faster.
At the same time, north of the Thirteen Mountains, the Tower of the Gods and Demons was also under construction.
It should be known that the Dragon Towers in the human kingdom were already very dense, and they were still being built.
Not only that, the Dragon Temple's laboratory and the Dragon Temple's secret manufacturing facility were also working around the clock, creating countless energy weapons. They were building large Sky Fortresses and Star Magic Reaction Cores.
The Dragon Temple opened each mysterious plane and began to tame the energy creatures inside, forming all kinds of energy creature armies.
Both sides were preparing for the big battle in the future.
However, the power on Lan Ling's side was already very clear, while the power on the side of the Dragon Temple was indeed mysterious and unknown.
Lan Ling didn't even know how many Sky Fortresses the Dragon Temple had, how many armies, how many King Arthur, how many King-class experts, and how many Star Magic Reaction Cores.
Know yourself and know your enemy, and you will always be victorious.
And now, Lan Ling knew nothing about the power of the Dragon Temple. He didn't know how much power the Dragon Temple had obtained from the Dragon Emperor and the Lunar Temple.
…
Jiang Xue (the Ancient Witch General Xi Qian) returned to the Dongli Kingdom and secretly met with the King of Dongli, Jiang Shang.
"Father, now that His Majesty has inherited the title of Demon Emperor, where will you go?" Jiang Xue asked.
When Lan Ling inherited the title of Demon Emperor, the one who suffered the most was Jiang Shang. Although he was already in his sixties, his hair, which had always been black, was now as white as snow. This made Jiang Xue's heart ache.
King Dongli Jiang Shang raised his head and asked, "Are you Jiang Xue?"
Without waiting for an answer, King Dongli nodded and said, "Yes, you are Jiang Xue now, not that Demoness. Then let me ask you, Jiang Blood, what do you plan to do? "
Jiang Xue said, "Of course I'm on the side of His Majesty Lan Ling."
"Why?" Jiang Shang asked.
"Because the Dragon Temple is the source of all evil and darkness in the world," Jiang Xue said.
Jiang Shang said, "Then, are you on the side of Demon Emperor to help him lead the Demon Army to annihilate the human nations? To destroy the entire human civilization? "
Jiang Xue said, "His Majesty's enemy is the Dragon Temple, not the people."
"Then ask, why did Ertian The Great and Emperor Doom want to destroy the entire human nations?" Jiang Shang said, "This is a game of 0s and 1s. Moreover, the human nations and the Dragon Temple are inseparable. When the Demon Emperor enters the human nations, the entire energy attribute will change, and countless humans will die. That's why I've always wanted His Majesty Lan Ling to inherit the Dragon Emperor title. Because if he inherits the title of Dragon Emperor, he will naturally be able to improve and reorganize the Dragon Temple. Moreover, he won't need to go on a southern expedition to attack the Demon Race. Both the humans and the Demon Race will be able to coexist in peace. Furthermore, His Majesty Lan Ling can be both the Emperor of the Balrog Empire and the Emperor of the Human Empire, as long as the Demon Race Empire is under the control of Empress Tina. This was originally a win-win plan, but His Majesty Lan Ling rejected me and insisted on becoming the Demon Emperor. Once he becomes the Demon Emperor, he will be completely opposed to the human nations. This is because if he wants to destroy the Dragon Temple, he will have to destroy the human nations first. "
Taking a deep breath and suppressing the agitation in her heart, Jiang Shang continued, "That's right, the human Jung Yeon did cause great harm to His Majesty Lan Ling. However, His Majesty Lan Ling's desperate decision to become the Demon Emperor really pained me. This means that he has long decided to destroy the human nations in his heart. Jiang Xue, although you have been soaked in the blood of the Demon Race, your heart should still be that of a human. Are you going to watch as the human nations are completely destroyed? Are you going to watch as hundreds of millions of humans are slaughtered? "
Jiang Xue's breathing suddenly became hurried, and she said in a hoarse voice, "I firmly believe that His Majesty is not such a person. He is a wise ruler. In his heart, he will not have such a narrow and antagonistic relationship between the humans and the Demon Race."
Jiang Shang shook her head and said, "First of all, His Majesty Lan Ling only wants to destroy the Dragon Temple. He does not have much enmity towards the human nations, but he does not have much pity for them either. To be precise, he does not have any pity for the Demon Race or the human nations. This is because he is already the ruler of the plane and is close to being a god. A high and mighty god will not have any feelings for the ants in the mortal world. Secondly, even if he does have any pity for the humans, it will not change anything. This is because this is determined by the attribute of the bloodline. Once he enters the human nations, it will mean the death of countless humans. "
Jiang Xue was silent for a moment, then she shook her head and said, "No, I still believe that His Majesty will not do this. Perhaps he was once filled with hatred and even wanted to destroy the entire world. However, after inheriting the legacy of the Demon Emperor, his power came from all living things in the world. Therefore, he must be filled with some kind of love for the entire world. Not only the Flame Demon Emperor, but the Emperor Doom also did the same. He destroyed countless nations, but chased the humans to the north instead of killing them all. Ertian The Great did the same. He tried to solve this conflict once and for all, so he succeeded in letting the Demon Race and the humans intermarry and reproduce. That is why the human race was born. "
Jiang Shang said, "Then go and ask His Majesty what he intends to do."
Jiang Xue thought for a moment, then she nodded and said, "Alright, I will ask him now."
Then, she left the Dong Li Nation overnight and returned to the Wilderness in the north, requesting to see Lan Ling.
…
The day after Jiang Xue left, a new guest arrived in the Dong Li Nation. Hearing this name, Jiang Shang frowned. She did not know why the Dragon Temple would send this person.
The person they sent was Fu Lingxi, the alternate Sky High Priest and alternate Sky Chief Judge.
"Your Excellency Jiang Shang, Lan Ling did not inherit the Dragon Emperor as you wished. Instead, he claimed to have become the Demon Emperor. At this time, he has already unified the entire Demon Race's territory and is about to launch a northern expedition, "Fu Lingxi said," When that time comes, the entire human civilization will be destroyed. What will you do? "
"What do you mean?" Jiang Shang said coldly.
Fu Lingxi said, "The Dragon Temple is building a line of defense for the entire human kingdom, and the only gap is the Dong Li Nation. This is because the Dong Li Nation has always been separated from the Dragon Temple's faith. We are very worried that the Dong Li Kingdom will become a breakthrough point or a springboard for the Demon Emperor to attack the human kingdoms. "
The Dong Li King Jiang Shang said, "You are thinking too much. Although I am hostile to the Dragon Temple, I still remember that I am a human, a subject of the Dragon Emperor. It is impossible for me to betray my race and stand to help the evil. "
Fu Lingxi said, "I admire Your Excellency Dong Li King's stand, but words alone are no proof."
The Dong Li King said, "Do you still want me to write a contract?"
"Of course not, most of the time, a contract is just a piece of tissue paper," Fu Lingxi said, "I hope that Your Excellency Dong Li King will join the human kingdom's line of defense built by the Dragon Temple. He agreed to allow the God Dragon Army to move in and to allow the God Dragon Temple to build relevant defensive measures and energy formations within the Dong Li Kingdom. He also agreed to open up the airspace of the Dong Li Kingdom for the God Dragon Temple to station in the Sky Fortress. Open the Dragon Emperor's legacy and join the decisive battle against Lan Ling. "
Hearing this series of humiliating conditions, Jiang Shang sneered, "Do you think that is possible?"
Fu Lingxi said, "Are you trying to cut yourself off from the righteous camp?"
Jiang Shang did not answer, only saying one word, "Scram!"
Fu Lingxi showed a charming smile and left.
…
Jiang Xue returned to the Wild North and asked to see Lan Ling!
"Your subject Jiang Xue greets Your Majesty. Long live Your Majesty, long live Your Majesty." Jiang Xue knelt down and kowtowed.
"Jiang Xue?" Lan Ling was surprised, because it was the Witch General Xi Qian who controlled this body almost all the time.
"That's me," Jiang Xue said, "I have something that I don't understand, Your Majesty."
Lan Ling said, "Speak."
Jiang Xue said, "In Your Majesty's mind, what is the position of all humans?"
Lan Ling said after a moment of silence, "My wife, sister, daughter, and disciple were all captured by the Dragon Temple. They are also humans."
Jiang Xue said, "Queen Jung Yeon killed you, which is a shameful betrayal. Will you vent your anger on the entire human kingdom because of her?"
Lan Ling shook his head, "No."
Jiang Xue said, "If you want to destroy the Dragon Temple, you have to destroy the entire human kingdom. What would you choose?"
This question was not easy to answer. Lan Ling thought for a while and said, "I would choose to destroy the Dragon Temple at all costs."
Instantly, Jiang Xue's tears gushed out. She kowtowed heavily on the ground and remained motionless.
After receiving this answer, she was in great pain.
Lan Ling did not have any enmity towards Lan Ling, but he did not pity her either.
Even though Jiang Xue's bloodline had been changed to that of a demon, she still saw herself as a human. She was a person with true love, so even though she did not know Søren at Blood Shore Mi City, she still saved him for the greater good of humanity.
She was not a petty woman like Zhi Ning. Zhi Ning only cared about her family and did not care about demons or humans. If her husband and son were humans, she would be a human. If they were demons, she would be a demon.
Lan Ling did not speak, nor did he offer any consolation.
If Jiang Xue could not take it and wanted to leave, then he would let her leave. As the esteemed Demon Emperor, he would definitely not compromise and change his stance for Jiang Xue.
"Thank you for your honesty, Your Majesty." Jiang Xue kowtowed and said, "However, Your Majesty, please have some pity for humans at the critical moment, even if it is just a little. Just like how Emperor Doom banished humans to the North and drew a line instead of killing them all. Just like how Ertian The Great created a new race to be closer to humans. "
Lan Ling said, "I will consider it."
"I will take my leave. Long live Your Majesty!" Na Xue kowtowed and left.
…
After Jiang Xue left the Northern Wilderness and returned to Flame Demon City, he asked Empress Tigné and Prime Minister Tang to resign from all his duties.
Tigné did not ask why and agreed immediately. But the Tang asked why?
"Because I have more important things to do," Jiang Xue said.
Tang asked, "Will it go against Your Majesty's interests?"
Jiang Xue shook her head and said, "No."
Tang nodded and said, "Alright then, I will allow it."
Jiang Xue (the Demon Lady had resigned from all her duties) left the Southern Wilderness.
…
The Northern Wilderness!
Jiang Xue didn't cause much of a stir in Lan Ling, but her words did cause some ripples.
But in the end, Lan Ling did not think too deeply about this problem.
"Your Majesty, the leader of the Ghost King Empire's Skeleton Corps, the Rakshasa Mother, requests an audience."
