After hearing the turtle minister's reminder, the great demons...

They reacted quickly.

They quickly withdrew to carry out Ao Huang's orders.

Soon, only the kneeling Turtle Prime Minister and Ao Huang remained on the field.

It knelt on the ground, looking completely bewildered.

The king's reaction today was really strange.

In the past, it was always very excited and thrilled to return victorious.

It wouldn't be like this now, looking like it's about to go on a killing spree.

Could it be that they suffered a setback in the previous battle?

An idea popped into Gui Xiang's mind.

However, he quickly suppressed it.

A setback?

How is that possible?

Since Ao Huang landed on land.

He has never encountered an enemy who could unleash his full power.

These lowly humans are terribly weak.

How could we possibly let Ao Huang suffer a setback?

Just as the tortoise shell was hesitating.

Ao Huang's cold voice came through.

"Follow me into the palace."

These four short words sent a chill down the spine of the tortoise-like figure.

It hurriedly got up from the ground and followed Ao Huang's footsteps towards the distant palace.

The two traveled without any obstacles.

Soon, they returned to the palace.

Ao Huang entered the main hall and sat directly on the throne.

We returned to the main hall.

Looking back on everything that had happened before.

Attack a small human city.

He actually made himself stand at the top of all demons, creating unparalleled achievements as a demon king.

It became a human's mount.

All of this made Ao Huang feel like he was experiencing a dream.

He felt a mix of emotions.

Sorrow, resentment, and a mix of other emotions welled up in his heart.

He had a thousand words to say.

But it all got stuck in my chest, and I couldn't get it out.

He wanted to tell the Minister of War about his defeat.

But his lingering pride prevented him from knowing how to speak.

Especially when facing his longest-serving subordinate, Gui Xiang.

Ao Huang remained silent.

The turtle on the other side naturally dared not speak rashly.

He knelt on the ground, only able to steal glances at Ao Huang's reaction.

However, Ao Huang was completely different from his previous high spirits.

At this moment, he had a sorrowful expression, his eyes filled with an unyielding sadness.

Moreover, Ao Huang seems to have changed in some way now.

It made him feel a little awkward.

The vast hall was empty, with only two people present. Silence stretched on for a long time, the atmosphere eerily oppressive.

Finally, the tortoise could no longer restrain itself.

He asked, "Your Majesty, what is troubling you? Perhaps I can help you."

Gui Xiang's voice was cautious, as if afraid of angering Ao Huang.

After hearing his words...

Ao Huang's lips twitched for a moment, then he finally sighed, "I have lost..."

Ao Huang ultimately chose to tell the Turtle Prime Minister about his defeat.

After all, this was his most trusted subordinate, and also the most intelligent among his men.

Perhaps I can help him come up with a solution to his current predicament.

After hearing Ao Huang say that he had been defeated.

An incredulous glint flashed in the turtle's eyes.

In his heart, Ao Huang had always been an invincible figure.

Whether in the Western Sea or on land.

Aside from a draw with Ao Yun, who was also a demon king, Ao Huang had never fought another demon king.

They've never lost a game!

Not to mention that this time the enemy is the weak and lowly human beings.

Ao Huang was actually defeated.

How is that possible?

A storm raged in the mind of the tortoise-like figure.

Finally managing a weak smile, he said, "Your Majesty... please don't joke with me..."

After hearing what the turtle minister said.

The sorrow in Ao Huang's eyes deepened.

Admitting defeat to subordinates is not an easy thing.

Why would I, the king, need to lie to you?

He shook his head, a hint of sadness in his voice.

Having said that, he lifted the hairline on his forehead, revealing his severed dragon horns, with only the roots remaining.

Upon closer inspection, Gui Xiang noticed that Ao Huang's dragon horns had been neatly severed from his head.

An incredulous glint suddenly flashed in his eyes.

He finally understood the source of the strangeness he had just witnessed in Ao Huang.

It is these dragon horns!

Dragon horns are a symbol of the dragon race and a source of pride for the dragon demon clan.

If Ao Huang was really joking with him, there's no way he would have cut off his own horn!

Therefore, after witnessing this scene, he had to accept a surprising fact!

Ao Huang was defeated, and his defeat was extremely tragic.

The opponent possesses overwhelming strength.

Otherwise, it would have been impossible to cut off a dragon horn with a hardness comparable to divine iron!

Ao Huang had no intention of showing the tortoise minister the severed edge of his dragon horn.

Therefore, it lasted for a while.

She then covered it up again with her hair.

This action brought the tortoise back to reality from its shock.

He stared blankly, drooling, and asked in an incredulous voice.

"Your Majesty... what exactly happened?"

His voice was filled with surprise and doubt.

Even when they retreated, the situation was still very favorable.

With his extraordinary strength, Ao Huang killed two of the opponent's Nascent Soul cultivators in succession.

It nearly crippled half of the opponent's fighting strength.

How could it have happened in less than an hour?

The situation then reversed; the king was defeated, and even his dragon horns were cut off!

Who defeated him?

Could it be that there are beings among humans who have reached the fusion realm?

The tortoise physiognomy guessed to itself.

After hearing what the tortoise said...
