Demon King Zi Que 'er furrowed her brows suspiciously. The rock gave her a strong sense of danger. She retreated without hesitation and did not forget to shout, "Watch out!"
Unfortunately, while all of this seemed to take a long time to describe, it was actually extremely short. Everything happened in the time it takes for a spark to fly off a flint.
Bam!
The four Demon Kings did not have time to react at all. Their attacks followed the inertia and landed on the rock.
The stone shattered, and a dazzling white light flashed, followed by an earth-shattering explosion. The terrifying airwave formed a shockwave visible to the naked eye, crazily spreading outwards, engulfing everything and annihilating everything.
The surviving soldiers in the river could only let out a miserable cry before they were annihilated by the terrifying shockwave. Countless corpses were swept away by the rapid red river …
The soldiers who did not manage to cross the river looked at each other. When they saw the fear in each other's eyes, someone took the lead and immediately scattered.
The Demon Race soldiers who had crossed the river were pale. Their legs trembled as they groaned in their hearts. Their army of ten million was reduced to less than two million. How were they going to fight like this?
Other than an extremely small number of demon kings who had quick reflexes and fled in panic following Zi Que 'er's warning, there were over four hundred demon kings who could only form a defense with their vigorous blood Qi in a hurry before they were sent flying by the terrifying impact wave. Cracks appeared on their bodies as they spat out blood wildly from their mouths. Their faces were filled with terror as they retreated continuously. Only when they felt that they were safe did they sit down on the ground and continued to vomit blood as they healed their wounds.
The four Demon Kings who were the first to bear the brunt of the attack were even worse off. They were thrown dozens of meters away like rag dolls and their blood dyed the sky red before they fell heavily to the ground.
Only then did the crowd realize that the four Demon Kings' limbs had been blown away. Their chests and abdomens were filled with hideous lacerations which revealed their white bones. Even their beating hearts and internal organs could be seen clearly. Blood flowed freely from their wounds and they looked as miserable as could be.
Fortunately, their blood qi was strong enough and their life force far exceeded that of an ordinary person. They used their extremely vigorous blood qi to maintain their life force and disregarded the consequences of consuming their life force to heal their wounds. Otherwise, they would have been sent to the Western Paradise.
Even so, the four demon kings had suffered unprecedented heavy injuries, and it was impossible for them to possess any combat strength in a short period of time.
Demon King Zi Que 'er's face was ashen as she closed her eyes in despair. Not only had she caused the Four Great Demon Kings to lose their ability to fight, she had also severely injured over four hundred peak-tier Demon Kings, causing the absolute advantage that they had gained to vanish in an instant. The most ironic thing was that throughout this entire process, Ding Ning had only revealed himself for a brief moment before they were completely annihilated and lost the right to participate in the final battle.
A hundred kilometers away, the higher-ups of the Winged Man Alliance watched this scene through a water mirror. Smiles spread across their faces, and their gazes towards Ding Ning were filled with admiration and wariness.
Behind them, over two million warriors stood solemnly and silently, their eyes filled with fanatical worship and admiration when they looked at the young man.
Standing next to Ding Ning, Kong Lei pouted angrily and pinched the softest piece of flesh on his waist with a face full of indignation. She twisted it three times to the left and three times to the right, venting the dissatisfaction in her heart.
Now that things had come to this, how could she not know that she had been fooled by Ding Ning? She had solemnly followed the arrangements in his brocade pouch and gathered all the soldiers with great fanfare. In the end, it was all for the sake of letting everyone witness his magnificent feat. How could a battle maniac like her endure this?
Ding Ning's skin was now so thick that it could block cannonballs, so he did not care about being pinched a few times by her. He kept a calm smile on his face and continued venting the dissatisfaction in his heart for her, as if the piece of flesh on his waist did not belong to him.
"The war is over. It's time for us to settle things with them."
Kong Mi glanced at Ding Ning with a hint of joy and fear, then suggested softly to the Winged Man Patriarch.
The Winged Man Patriarch did not answer. Instead, he looked at Ding Ning. It was all thanks to him that they had won this war with zero casualties. Even though she was the speaker, she had to respect his opinion at this moment.
Ding Ning stood quietly with his hands behind his back and said calmly, "Let's wait. I have a feeling that this war is not truly over yet."
All the speakers frowned, not understanding what he meant. Although there were still two million soldiers in the Demon City army, they had completely lost their fighting spirit and were not a threat at all.
More than four hundred of the five hundred Peak Demon Kings had lost their peak combat strength and could not withstand a single blow. What right did they have to struggle?
However, since Ding Ning had said it, it would not be groundless. They all looked at him anxiously, waiting for his answer.
However, no one knew whether Ding Ning was purposely keeping them in suspense or something else. After saying this, he did not say a word like a statue. No matter how many questions they asked, he did not answer and only let them continue to watch in an unfathomable manner.
"We have lost. We have lost completely. I surrender. I only hope that you can let my people go. Even if we are exiled to the Great Wilderness!"
Demon King Zi Que 'er's bitter voice echoed in the silent space. She knew that the Winged Man Alliance would definitely be able to hear her.
"We admit defeat!"
All the Demon Kings clenched their fists and lowered their heads dejectedly, admitting that they had lost. Although they were very unwilling, the winner was the king and the loser was the bandit. Since they had already lost, they had no right to persist.
"No, I will not admit defeat. I still have a trump card. I have not lost yet."
The Lion King suddenly raised his head, revealing his hideous face that was beyond recognition from the explosion. He roared at the top of his voice.
"Lion King, I know that you are unwilling to admit defeat. How can we be willing to admit defeat? However, the outcome has already been decided. What else can we use to fight against them? Forget it. "
Demon King Zi Que 'er said with a bitter smile, thinking that the Lion King was unwilling to admit defeat.
"No, I have not lost. I will not lose. I still have a trump card that I have yet to use. Third Brother, send a signal to them."
The Lion King had a hideous look on his face. His golden hair was standing on end. He hysterically ordered his third brother, Luo Yunhai.
Luo Yunhai's lips trembled. He hesitated and said, "Big Brother, you have to reconsider. Once you cooperate with them, there will be no turning back."
"Turning back? Do we still have a way to turn back? Do you think those guys from the Winged Man Alliance will let us go? Since we are going to die, let's all die together. "
The Lion King roared crazily.
Everyone could tell that something was wrong. It seemed that this old lion was going to do something crazy.
"Big Brother, please reconsider. Although the Winged Man Alliance will definitely not let us go, our people will not go extinct. There will be a day when we rise again. If you cooperate with those demons, the entire Myriad Demon Territory will be destroyed."
Luo Yunhai's face was bitter as he tried to persuade the Lion King.
"Third Brother, are you going to disobey my orders?"
The Lion King glared at Luo Yunhai furiously. Luo Yunhai could not help but shiver. He lowered his head and was speechless for a long time.
"All those years ago, if it wasn't for Zi Que 'er and all of you being too soft-hearted and didn't annihilate the Winged Clan, it would've caused the calamity today. With this as a lesson, do all of you think the Winged Clan would still be soft-hearted and let all the clans that were present here off? Childish, naive, wake up. We have no other way out. If we fail, it will be equivalent to the extinction of our tribe. Waiting for the enemy to pity us is just a dream. "
The Lion King did not lose his temper at Luo Yunhai. Instead, he used a disdainful tone to bewitch everyone present.
Everyone's expression changed drastically, especially Zi Que 'er and the other three Monster Kings. Their expressions were extremely ugly. Although the Lion King's words were unpleasant to hear, they were very reasonable. It was very likely that they would become the truth.
No, it was almost certain. All the experts of the Winged Man Tribe had been killed by them in the past. Their blood had dyed the Myriad Demon Territory red. How could the Winged Man Tribe not take revenge for this blood feud? Placing the hope of the tribe's survival on the Winged Man Tribe?
It was too unrealistic to think that the Winged Men Tribe would show mercy to him.
"Then what do you think we should do? Also, you have to make it clear. Who are you collaborating with? "
The White Bear King asked in a deep voice. He was also unwilling. If there was a chance of survival, he would fight for it.
"Don't worry about who I'm collaborating with. As long as I ask them for help, they will help us win this war. At that time, the entire Myriad Demon Territory will be ours."
The Lion King said with a strong bewitchment. However, he was still unwilling to reveal the other party's identity.
"Big Brother …"
Luo Yunhai wanted to persuade him anxiously. However, the Lion King shouted angrily, "Shut up!" and he shut his mouth obediently.
As his twin brother, he had lived in the shadow of being bullied by his big brother, Luo Yunhai. He was extremely cowardly, causing him to naturally fear his big brother. Even though Luo Yunhai was seriously injured now and he could kill him with a finger, he did not dare to disobey his big brother.
All the Monster Kings started to think. What were they trying to achieve by starting this war? Wasn't it to dominate the Myriad Demon Territory and live in the Myriad Demon City?
Now that they heard Leonis speak in such a relaxed manner, although they felt that something was amiss, they still wanted to take the risk to survive in the face of death no matter how problematic it was. Since they were already in such a predicament, how bad could it be?
"What price do we need to pay?"
Monster King Zi Que 'er had always been intelligent. She knew that there was no free lunch in this world. Therefore, she asked in an extremely calm and rational manner.
"You don't need to pay a huge price. In fact, after the war is over, your tribe can even live in the Myriad Demon City."
At this point, the Lion King deliberately paused for a moment to let the Monster Kings digest this news. Indeed, almost half of the Monster Kings' eyes lit up. Even their breathing quickened.
One had to know that although there were so many Demon Kings present, almost half of them were from the vassal races of the Four Great Clans and the Lion Clan. There was no one who could enter the Thousand Demon City. To them, the Lion King's promise was undoubtedly filled with endless temptation.
The Black Tiger King and the other three Monster Kings' faces turned extremely ugly. The Lion King's brazen attempt to win their hearts was like a slap to their faces.
But now, if they did not rely on the mysterious power that the Lion King had mentioned, their tribes would be annihilated. Who cared about whether they could live in the Myriad Demon City anymore? They could only suppress the sadness and dissatisfaction in their hearts and listen to him continue.
"I only have one condition. After we defeat the Winged People Alliance, all of you must become the vassal of the Golden Lion Tribe. My Lion Tribe will be your lord."
After the Lion King threw out enough temptation, he finally revealed his ambition. He wanted to rule the Myriad Demon Territory alone.
"Dream on. I would rather die than to serve you as my lord."
The Green Serpent King was enraged and rejected without hesitation.
"Is that so? It doesn't matter if you have the Green Serpent Tribe or not. It doesn't matter to me. Since you want to die, then go ahead and die. "
The Lion King smiled sinisterly. A Monster King from the Lion Tribe suddenly attacked. He smashed the Green Serpent King's head and stood respectfully beside the Lion King.
The pitiful Azure Wyrm King, a fierce and ambitious man of his generation, died in the hands of the Lion Tribe in front of everyone.
