Despite Wang Zheng's arrogant demeanor, he was actually quite panicked inside.
However, he had no choice. Not to mention that he no longer had enough spiritual energy, even if he did, he wouldn't dare gamble on whether the powerful beast would appear again and whether he could be resurrected.
The bolder and more arrogant he becomes, the more likely he is to convince the other party that he truly has a powerful background, making them hesitant to act against him.
Upon hearing Wang Zheng's words, the Spirit Elephant King's face turned pale and then red, but he stubbornly maintained his composure out of pride.
"Impossible. The Poisonous Python King was seriously injured. How could it dare to plot against you directly? It must have been you who killed him to steal his treasure and was tempted by his wealth."
Besides, you just killed that venomous python king right in front of us so that there would be no evidence against you.”
Meanwhile, the silver-haired demon king, who had previously been humiliated by Wang Zheng, also spoke up to provoke others.
"That's right, now that you've killed everyone, you can say whatever you want."
Wang Zheng's gaze sharpened instantly, and he angrily rebuked:
"What are you barking about? Do you have any right to speak here? You spineless dog dare to bark and howl in my China! If you don't dare to lay a hand on me today, I will kill you one day!"
Wang Zheng had already figured out that this guy wasn't a local demon king; just by looking at his outfit, he knew he was an outsider.
It now seems that the sudden appearance of those foreign beasts in Yunnan was probably related to these demon kings.
Besides the Azure Moon Wolf King, there were several other demon kings who seemed out of place, but they were all smart enough not to get involved.
Only the Azure Moon Wolf King, harboring malice, charged ahead.
Although Wang Zheng didn't know what these demon kings were up to, it was always right to sow discord among them.
Moreover, the more arrogant he acts now, the better his chances of survival.
In addition, he had long disliked this demon king, so he immediately launched into a tirade.
The silver-haired demon king was originally from the wolf clan. Unable to survive in Britain, he accepted the peacock demon king's invitation to settle in China.
However, as soon as they arrived, they were looked down upon by the other local demon kings, and they even had a lot of unpleasantness with the other local demon kings because of the division of territories.
Even the Spirit Elephant King and several others were quite hostile towards him.
These foreign demon kings are all the same; they couldn't make a living in their hometowns, so they thought of going to sea to seek a way to survive.
He originally wanted to leave a good impression on the Spirit Elephant King and ease their previous relationship, but he didn't expect to lose face from the very beginning.
Now things have gotten really bad. Not only is he being looked down upon because of his foreign nationality, but he's also been called a spineless dog by Wang Zheng, a junior. It's like his deepest wounds have been touched. He's really tried to steal a chicken but lost the rice instead.
Enraged, the Azure Moon Wolf King tried to make a move, but was once again stopped by the Peacock Demon King.
The Peacock Demon King wasn't angry and continued:
"Regardless of the truth, my nephew was killed by you. If you don't give an explanation, this matter will probably not end well today."
Wang Zheng snorted coldly and glared.
"What kind of explanation is this? How can we, the offspring of divine beasts, be so easily humiliated? Killing them is killing them!"
Just like now, you're stronger than me, so you can kill me. If you dare to make a move, go ahead and try.
If you don't dare, then get out of here right now. I will come to you one by one to learn from your humiliation of being trapped here today.
"But I'm afraid you, Peacock Demon King, have long forgotten the glory of your ancestors!"
Wang Zheng has gradually become immersed in the role, and his exaggerations are getting more and more outrageous.
Now he speaks without thinking, doing whatever is most arrogant and boastful.
He regretted his words of revenge as soon as they left his mouth.
However, he breathed a sigh of relief after seeing that the group of demon kings were somewhat intimidated by him.
"It seems these guys are all cowards who only bet on the weak. I need to be more assertive."
When the demon kings heard Wang Zheng utter a few new words, they began to exchange ideas.
"That kid is too arrogant, how dare he!"
"How dare you be so presumptuous in front of so many demon kings, you mere half-demon?"
"I have a feeling that this kid's words sound somewhat plausible. Putting aside his abilities, his arrogance makes him seem like he doesn't have any powerful backing."
"That's not entirely true. Even if his so-called father is a demon king, can't the eighteen brothers of Yunnan stop him if we work together?"
"Didn't you hear him claim to be a descendant of a divine beast? Do you even know what a divine beast is? You've seen his true form just now, haven't you? Have you ever seen such a strange beast? And what about the Candle Dragon Heavenly Emperor he just mentioned? Do you even know what that is?"
...
Listening to the chattering of his brothers behind him, and Wang Zheng's so-called ancestral glory, the Peacock Demon King was completely bewildered.
His earliest memories were of his childhood in the circus. Although he recalled many memories after he became aware of them, in his mind, his parents were just ordinary birds, not even mythical beasts.
He himself mutated and evolved after absorbing enough spiritual energy after the cave appeared. As for his ancestors' glory, he himself had no idea.
But looking at Wang Zheng's "you're not worthy to be my companion" attitude, it actually seemed quite convincing.
