Helian Kuang burst into tears, regretting his actions to the point of complete collapse. The other families and forces that had surrendered to the Huai Palace, especially those whose names had been called out by the Huai Palace, could no longer sit still. They fell to the ground one after another, desperately confessing, begging, swearing, and expressing their loyalty to the Little Demon Queen in fear...
The strength and pressure of the Little Demon Empress were extremely terrifying, and the crimes committed by the Huai Palace were a thousand times more terrifying. They might not be afraid of death, but who wouldn't be afraid of being cursed by the world and being infamous for eternity...
"Little Demon Empress, we really don't know what the Huai Palace did... We don't know anything at all..."
"If we knew... even if we were given ten thousand more courages, we would never dare to have any contact with the Huai Palace... I have never even seen that Ming Wang..."
“Prince Huai… you… you… you are so cruel! Not only did you murder the Demon King, you also harmed the entire Illusory Demon Realm… Such a crime deserves the punishment of heaven and earth, and even the slaughter of all nine clans! If we had known earlier… our Jiufang family would have spared no effort to chop you into pieces…”
"Little Demon Queen, although we two brothers are... blinded by greed,... we really don't know anything about the affairs of the Huai Palace. Otherwise, even if we die, we brothers will never have anything to do with the Huai Palace... If we say even a single lie, we brothers will be struck by lightning... Please forgive us for our ignorance, Little Demon Queen... We two brothers will be loyal to you in the future..." The speakers were Bai Guihun and Bai Guiming, who had besieged Yun Qinghong before. As the Huai Palace listed his crimes, they were also scared to death.
“I have always been loyal to the Demon King’s clan and the Little Demon Queen… The reason I surrendered to the Huai Palace was only because I thought the Little Demon Queen was in danger and I did it to protect myself… I really didn’t know anything about the crimes of the Huai Palace… These words of mine and my loyalty are witnessed by the sun and the moon, and the heaven and earth…” A general wearing golden armor fell to the ground, almost breaking his head.
There were cries of grief in the hall, and those who were crawling on the ground were all powerful men or members of proud families. Just an hour ago, they were all so arrogant, but now, they were kneeling and crying like the most humble prisoners, desperately begging for mercy in fear and regret...
As for the people in the Huai Palace, they all collapsed to the ground, their eyes were either terrified or empty, and they couldn't even groan. They knew that from today on, the Huai Palace was doomed. As people in the Huai Palace, they were almost scared to death by these crimes.
Death can be quick and painless.
However, if a person's fame turns into a stigma overnight, he will be cursed by countless people both during his lifetime and after his death. Even his descendants and his family will be looked down upon and rejected by others... Even his ancestors will be ashamed of it. That is countless times more humiliating and terrifying than simple death.
And they were on the edge of this. The crime committed by the Huai Palace was a heinous crime that had never happened in the Illusory Demon Realm, enough to anger all gods and humans. And they had indeed betrayed the Demon Royal Family and pledged allegiance to the Huai Palace. Once this crime was confirmed by the Little Demon Queen, all their glory would sink into the most filthy mud.
Even if they really had no idea about the crimes committed by the Huai Palace...they had never seen the Ming King who had disappeared for a long time.
The Little Demon Empress slowly raised her eyes and said coldly, "I can believe that you are completely unaware of the crimes committed by Prince Huai's Mansion."
The Little Demon Queen's words made them overjoyed, but her next words were like a bucket of cold water pouring down on their heads: "But the Prince of Huai has disobeyed me overtly and covertly countless times over the years, and has used all means to suppress the powerful families loyal to me. His ambitions have long been obvious! Even if you are blind, you should know it clearly! But you would rather abandon me and surrender to the Prince of Huai's Mansion! It's no different from disobeying and rebelling... How dare you ask me for mercy!!"
The Little Demon Empress' words undoubtedly hit the weak spot of these people. She knew exactly what they had done and what they were thinking. The seven families, the princes' palaces, and all those who surrendered to the Huai Palace were all trembling. The only thing they could do was to desperately beg for mercy, show loyalty, and even swear the most vicious oath...
The Little Demon Queen slowly stretched out her hand. This movement of hers instantly made everyone hold their breath… That delicate little hand that was as white and tender as fresh snow was undoubtedly the hand of death that could take their lives in an instant in their eyes.
clang!
As the Little Demon Queen flipped her hand, a short blade with a cold glow flew out from Bai Guiming's body and landed in front of Prince Huai. Half of the blade pierced the ground, and the Little Demon Queen's deep voice rang out, "Since you want to show your loyalty... Very good. Whoever kills Prince Huai with his own hands, I will pardon his crime!"
There was a moment of dead silence in the hall, and then a surge of air suddenly erupted, shaking the Demon King Hall as if there was an earthquake. Those who had been kneeling on the ground all rushed towards King Huai like crazy, their speed was so fast, and the violent profound energy surging in their bodies almost exceeded the limit of their lives.
Helian Kuangli was the closest and reacted the fastest. He grabbed the short blade stuck in the ground, his eyes red, and rushed towards Prince Huai with a roar of hatred: "Prince Huai...die for me!!"
Of course his hatred was not false. In his current situation, he certainly would not blame himself for betraying his ancestors, but would put it all on Prince Huai... He concentrated all his strength on the short blade in his hand and pierced Prince Huai's vitals, wishing he could split his body in half.
At this moment, there was a loud bang in the sky, and the roof of the Demon King's Palace collapsed on a large scale. A red-black flame that covered the sky and the sun blasted down with a scorching and sinister air wave... Before the flames arrived, the extremely violent air wave had knocked all the people who rushed towards Prince Huai to the ground, and the ground of the hall was sinking rapidly at a speed visible to the naked eye.
“It’s King Ming… Be careful!” Yun Che shouted, grabbed the Heaven Smiting Sword, and rushed in front of Yun Qinghong and Mu Yurou.
The Little Demon Queen flicked her long sleeves, and the Golden Crow flames shot up into the sky, instantly shattering the demonic flames that filled the sky. As the Fallen Demonic Flames dissipated, a figure in a silver robe appeared in the sky a hundred feet above.
"Ming...King!!" All those who had seen Ming King in those days exclaimed. Although Ming King had disappeared for more than a hundred years, his appearance had not changed at all during these years. However, seeing this "Smiling Buddha" again, his once gentle and polite image without any pretense of a prince had now become a devil's smile.
The Little Demon Queen floated into the air, facing King Ming in mid-air, her eyes radiating icy murderous intent: "King Ming, I thought you didn't have the courage to come out."
"Alas." King Ming looked at the miserable state of the Huai Palace below and sighed briefly, "Become a king, and be defeated as a bandit. This king originally thought about the day of success, and naturally thought about the consequences of failure... However, this king did not lose to anyone, but to the Golden Crow spirit... Human power cannot resist the gods after all. Otherwise, this Fantasy Demon Realm would have been the world of this king's clan."
"Ming Wang...it's really you!!" Mu Feiyan pointed at Ming Wang, her whole body shaking with anger: "The former Demon King valued and trusted you. When you wanted to leave Demon King City, the former Demon King and I tried our best to keep you...Back then, the Demon King asked me to be careful of you, but I didn't take it seriously...I didn't expect you to be such an ungrateful, despicable and vicious person!"
“Hehe…” King Ming smiled indifferently: “A person’s life can be as short as a few dozen years or as long as a few thousand years. After that, it will turn into scorched earth and scatter across the heaven and earth. How short it is. In this short life, if you have ambition, how can you be willing to be inferior to others, and how can you be someone else’s minister. His Demon King family can be the emperor of the Demon King, so why can’t my family! I just did a lot of things that mediocre people want to do but dare not do, or even don’t have the courage to think about! What’s wrong with me! Even if I lose today, I have regrets, but I have absolutely no regrets!”
“What King Ming said is totally wrong.” Yun Che smiled faintly and said slowly.
"Oh?" King Ming looked at him sideways and said, "Then tell me what I said was wrong."
“It’s not any one sentence, it’s all wrong.” Yun Che shook his head and smiled slightly, but it was a smile of contempt: “What is a human? A person may not be able to stand tall, may not have great achievements, and may live a mediocre life. The reason why a person is a human is not only because he has a human body and an independent will, but most importantly, he has the most basic humanity, shame, and conscience. Ming Wang, do you have these? Oh... It seems that you don’t have any at all. Then, what qualifications do you have to call yourself a human? At best, you are just a vicious beast.”
"Since your premise of being a human being is wrong, everything else is of course a bunch of bullshit."
"Also, you are comparing yourself to the Demon King Clan. It is simply a huge joke. Why can the Demon King Clan be the emperor for ten thousand years? This has nothing to do with whether the Demon King Clan inherits the Golden Crow bloodline! Back then, it was the Demon King Ancestor who quelled the rebellion of the Illusionary Demons, ended the disputes between the human race and the demon race, unified the entire Illusionary Demon Realm, and made the Illusionary Demon Realm peaceful for ten thousand years without any major disputes! Therefore, the Demon King Clan is qualified to rule the world and is qualified to accept the submission of the Illusionary Demon people. And you, King Ming... what qualifications do you have!?"
"As a member of the Illusory Demon Royal Family, you have received the grace of the Demon King Family. You have a noble status since birth and enjoy the best resources. However, instead of being grateful and loyal, you have developed a sinful and rebellious heart! You even invited wolves into the house, causing the Illusory Demon Realm to suffer a great disaster and causing chaos in the Demon King City. You also killed the Demon King and the Little Demon King in a mean and vicious way, and almost killed the Little Demon Queen in the Golden Crow Thunder Flame Valley... Not only have you made no contribution to the Illusory Demon Realm, but you have also caused great harm! Compared to the great achievements of the Demon King Family in unifying the Illusory Demon Realm, you, the Ming King, are only mean and vicious! What qualifications do you have and how can you compare with the Demon King Family!"
"The Demon King family can rule for ten thousand years, and the world will be at peace. As for you, even if your evil plot really succeeds, when the truth comes to light, you will eventually be destroyed by the anger of the Phantom Demon people, and it will never last long!"
"And your father, your grandfather, and your ancestors, do you think they will be pleased and proud of your so-called 'ambition'? No, they will only feel pain, sadness, and disgust, and wish they could jump out of the underworld and strangle you to death with their own hands! Because you have brought shame to their reputation and made your entire family a disgrace forever..."
"shut up!!!"
Even though Ming Wang had always been calm in the face of a disastrous defeat, he let out an extremely hoarse and angry roar at this moment. His face was distorted, and his originally calm pupils were also violently turbulent. In this world, the sharpest thing is not a weapon, but a word that pierces the heart! Every word and every sentence of Yun Che was like the sharpest steel needle, piercing his weak spot fiercely, piercing his state of mind that he thought was as solid as a rock and could look down on everything.
He finally experienced the sharpness of Yun Che’s words... and finally understood why his son, Prince Huai, almost lost his lungs because of Yun Che, and even left a trauma.
“Hey! You’ve become angry out of shame.” The aura released by Ming Wang in his rage was shocking, but Yun Che was not afraid. He smiled and said, “The winner is the king and the loser is the bandit? No, no, no, that’s for heroes. This sentence is totally unsuitable for you. Right now, you are nothing more than a stray dog that will be shouted down and cursed by everyone!”
Ming Wang's body began to tremble: "I will... kill you!!" Mobile users please visit http://m.piaotia.net
