Whoosh!
The Leo Tribe and its vassal clans' Monster Kings reacted and stood beside the Leo King. They stared at the Green Wyrm Tribe and the other four races' Monster Kings vigilantly, preventing them from attacking the Leo King and avenging the Green Wyrm King.
"Clan Leader, sob sob sob, I beg the Monster Kings to avenge the Clan Leader on account of the unity of the four races."
The Green Wyrm Tribe's Monster Kings pounced on the Green Wyrm King's corpse and cried bitterly. They stared at the Leo King with hatred and knelt down on one knee towards the Black Tiger King, White Bear King and Zi Que 'er Monster King as they pleaded bitterly.
The three Monster Kings' expressions were ugly. Although the Leo Tribe had killed the Green Wyrm King, only Zi Que 'er Monster King was still in peak condition. The Black Tiger King and the White Bear King were severely injured, how could they be a match for the Leo King and the others?
Moreover, they were still hoping for the Leo King to lead them to victory. Why would they attack the Leo King just because of a dead man?
The White Bear King and the Black Tiger King remained silent. They were afraid that they would follow in the Green Wyrm King's footsteps.
Zi Que 'er sighed softly and said earnestly, "If we kill the Leo King, all of us will die. If we don't kill him, we still have a chance to live. What do you think we should do?"
The dozen or so Monster Kings of the Green Flood Dragon Race were stunned and stopped crying. That's right. Even if they could kill the Lion King, they couldn't. Although the Green Flood Dragon King was important, it was a matter of life and death. Everyone was selfish. It was just that they were unwilling.
The Leo King's eyes glimmered when he saw this scene and his lips curled into a proud smile.
The reason why he ordered his subordinates to kill the Green Dragon King was to test if the White Bear King, the Black Tiger King, and the Zi Que 'er King would seek revenge on him for the sake of their so-called friendship. He was very satisfied with the result. Between life and death, they had made the right choice.
"Those who are willing to follow me, I will let bygones be bygones and find a way to live. Now, make your choice."
The Leo King said calmly. With two to three hundred Monster Kings protecting him, he was very confident.
The demon monarchs exchanged looks. They knew that it was time to take a stand. No one was willing to die if they could live. With a splash, more than half of the demon monarchs went to Leonis's side.
Some of the Demon Kings were originally from the vassal families of the four major races. However, in order to show their loyalty to the Leonis King, they glared angrily at the people of the four major races who were hesitating because they could not put down their pride. They looked as if they would attack them if they did not submit. The scene looked extremely ironic.
At this moment, the dark side of human nature received the most profound interpretation.
"Forget it, forget it. For the continuation of the race, I submit!"
The Black Tiger King sighed dispiritedly. With the support of his clansmen, he walked shakily towards the Leonis King.
"Let's advance and retreat together!"
The White Bear King let out a bitter laugh and came to the Lion King's side with the help of his clansmen.
"Where's Zi Que 'er?"
The Leonis King looked complacently at the hesitant Demon Monarch Zi Que 'er. He had coveted this mature and beautiful woman for a long time. However, in the past, he only dared to think about it but did not dare to do it. Now, this beautiful woman was still at his mercy. At the thought of this, a burning greed flashed across his eyes.
Demon Monarch Zi Que 'er's senses were extremely sharp. Although the Leonis King had concealed it very well, how could he possibly hide it from her? She could not help but feel a strong sense of disgust in her heart. She frowned slightly but a charming smile appeared on her face. "Since everyone has made their choice, if I don't know what's good for me, won't I spoil everyone's mood?"
"Hahaha, Zi Que 'er is indeed a wonderful person. I like her!"
The Leonis King pointed at Zi Que 'er and laughed in high spirits. His arrogant manner made it seem as if he had already become a king.
Luo Yunhai forced a smile. Looking at the group of demon monarchs surrounding his big brother, he sighed in his heart. His big brother was playing with fire.
But what could he do? The Lion Clan had no way out. In order to survive and the continuation of their clan, they could only ask a tiger for its skin and drink poison to quench their thirst, even if the price was unbearable.
A hundred kilometers away, the upper echelons of the Winged Clan Alliance all had uncertain expressions. Lang Li could not hold it in any longer. Looking at the expressionless Winged Clan Patriarch, he could not help but say, "What are we waiting for? We must stop them. "
"Yes. Who knows who the powerful reinforcements Luo Yunji spoke of are. If we do not stop them immediately and they really summon powerful reinforcements, all our efforts will be in vain."
Yuan Ming chimed in restlessly.
"Kill them while they are down. Even if they don't have powerful reinforcements, we cannot give them time to recover."
Kong Mi narrowed his eyes and said solemnly.
The upper echelons of the Winged Clan Alliance all spoke up to stop them from asking for reinforcements and nip the situation in the bud.
The Winged Clan Patriarch's expression was calm. Hearing the worried suggestions of the upper echelons, he looked deeply at Ding Ning. "What does the chief say?"
"Wait!"
Ding Ning answered casually. He slowly looked around before saying indifferently, "Aren't you all curious about who Luo Yunji's so-called partner is?"
"As long as we win, who cares who it is," Niu Yue said in a slightly aggressive tone.
Niu Yue's tone was a little harsh. They were about to succeed, but Ding Ning still asked them to bide their time. This made him very dissatisfied, and he could not help but be a little angry when he spoke.
The others did not speak, but their expressions seemed to agree with Niu Yue's words.
Ding Ning was not angry. He said calmly, "When Luo Yunji spoke of this mysterious faction, he seemed very confident. What does this mean?"
"It means that this faction is very powerful, so powerful that Luo Yunji is full of confidence in them. He thinks that once they act, they can easily control the situation."
Kong Mi said slowly with a thoughtful look on his face.
Ding Ning nodded approvingly. "I know that everyone is anxious to reap the fruits of victory, but have you all thought about it? If this mysterious faction is really as powerful as the Leo King says, why are they hiding in the dark and cooperating with the Leo King?"
Everyone looked at each other and fell silent. They were thinking hard about this question. Yes, if that faction was really that powerful, why did they have to seek partners?
"Could it be that they're not as powerful as the Leo King thinks?"
Yuan Ming scratched his head and made random guesses.
"No. Since Luo Yunji has high hopes for them, he must be aware of their strength. I feel that once they cooperate, this faction will definitely take over the leading position in the dark. As the one who benefits the most on the surface, Luo Yunji will definitely pay a price that he cannot bear. That's why Luo Yunhai has been hesitant all this while."
Kong Lei's beautiful eyes shone with the light of wisdom. Her cherry lips parted slightly as she guessed. "I think that this faction cannot see the light of day. At least, they cannot openly stand in the light as it will cause the entire Demon Clan to retaliate. That's why they are hiding in the dark and controlling Luo Yunji in order to achieve some unseen goal."
Everyone was instantly shocked. They all looked at Ding Ning, wanting to know if Kong Lei's answer was true.
If it was true, then this mysterious faction was really too terrifying. What were they plotting? The Thousand Demon Territory? Or the Sacred Mountain?
Ding Ning looked at Kong Lei encouragingly. "Go on."
Kong Lei was happy to receive the affirmation of her lover. Her thoughts became clearer. After thinking for a while, she said with assurance, "Although the Thousand Demon Territory is not small, there are only so many powerful clans. Everyone knows that other than the clans that are participating in the war, although there are many other powerful clans, even if they join forces, it will not be so easy to defeat us. It's impossible for Luo Yunji to be so confident. Furthermore, even if they are the fishermen, it's not to the extent that they cannot see the light of day. So …"
At this point, Kong Lei paused. Feeling Ding Ning's encouraging gaze, her expression also became serious. "So I think that this mysterious faction is very likely not a faction of the Thousand Demon Territory, but an external faction. That's why they have to hide in the dark and control Luo Yunji to achieve some unspeakable goal."
"What? An external faction? "
Someone cried out in shock.
"Could it be the Demon Clan of the Great Wilderness?"
Lang Li frowned and guessed.
"Impossible. The Demon Clan of the Great Wilderness are all demonic beasts that have no intelligence and only have instincts. How could they have such intelligence."
Bai Chuanxiu directly shook her head and denied.
"But other than the Demon Clan of the Great Wilderness, what other external faction could there be?"
You Ye knitted his brows tightly, unable to figure it out.
"Do you guys think it's the Sea Demon Clan from the Infinite Sea?"
Niu Yue suddenly thought of something and guessed with an ugly expression.
"Impossible. Although the Sea Demon Clan can go ashore for a short period of time, they can't live on land for a long time. Moreover, the resources in the Infinite Sea are much more abundant than on land. They wouldn't be interested in the resources of the Thousand Demon Territory."
Kong Mi shook his head and denied Niu Yue's guess with reason and evidence.
"That's right. If the Sea Demon Clan could live on land, they could easily crush the Thousand Demon Territory with their endless number of Sea Demons. There would be no need for so many schemes."
Yuan Ming also agreed with Kong Mi's thoughts and said with slight self-mockery.
"If it's not the Demon Clan of the Great Wilderness or the Sea Demon Clan, who else could it be?"
Lang Li rubbed his chin and asked in confusion.
The Patriarch of the Winged Tribe looked at Ding Ning as if he could see through a person's heart. He suddenly said, "So this is the reason why the chief wants to continue waiting?"
The moment the Patriarch of the Winged Tribe spoke, everyone quieted down. The entire place was silent. Everyone looked at Ding Ning and waited for his answer.
"That's right!"
Ding Ning did not deny it. He nodded and said calmly, "These people hide themselves and act strangely. They must be plotting something big. Moreover, their strength cannot be underestimated. If we let this force hide in the dark and stir up trouble, we won't be able to live in peace even if we enter the Thousand Demon City. Therefore, this time, I plan to lure them out from the dark and bring them to the light. As long as they show themselves, it'll be easy to find out who they are and we'll be able to prepare for the next step."
"But have you thought about the consequences? If they are really as strong as Luo Yunji said, then according to your plan, all of us here will most likely die. "
The Patriarch of the Winged Tribe's murky old eyes shone brightly. He spoke unhurriedly, but his tone was filled with a strong sense of oppression.
Everyone shuddered when they heard that. Yes, if the enemy hiding in the dark was really powerful, they would be the first to bear the brunt and would not be able to escape.
There were even some clever people who secretly guessed that the chief speaker's sudden question was because he suspected that Ding Ning's motive was not simple.
However, Ding Ning smiled and shrugged. He said in a very irresponsible manner, "That's not something I should consider. Patriarch, do you think that we can live peacefully in the Thousand Demon City if we don't dig this group of people out and figure out their motive?"
"Haven't the Black Tiger King and the others lived well in the Thousand Demon City for so many years? I don't see them doing anything. "
The Patriarch of the Winged Tribe's tone was aggressive, as if he was trying to suppress Ding Ning. Everyone's eyes flickered and they had different thoughts.
