Noticing the exchange of glances between the two wasn't just the Little Demon Queen; Yun Jianyue's voice also rang out: "You brat, didn't you say before that you and that elf princess were innocent?"
Yan Xuehen and Yu Yanluo, who were standing nearby, also looked over upon hearing this.
"We are indeed innocent." Zu'an felt a little guilty and secretly added that he and Xue'er were in love, so whatever they did was naturally innocent.
"I don't believe you." Yun Jianyue sneered repeatedly, Yan Xuehen remained expressionless, while Yu Yanluo looked amused.
Seeing the small waves of anger accumulating in the background, Zuan was also at a loss; having too many female confidantes could easily lead to disaster.
At this moment, Peacock King spoke to Qiao Xueying, but she was worried about exposing Zu An's identity, so she looked away.
Zuan then changed the subject, asking, "Is that middle-aged man in front of Lionheart and the others Lion King?"
The princes, including Shimin, stood respectfully behind a middle-aged man. The man had blond hair, a thick beard, and was much more imposing than Shimin and his companions. Even from a distance, one could feel his inexplicable aura.
Yu Yanluo replied, "That's right, he is Shi Zhentian, the patriarch of the Lion Clan, whose cultivation is unfathomable."
"Lion Shakes the Sky?" Zu'an looked at him strangely. Why don't you call yourself Optimus Prime?
Yun Jianyue sneered, "At most, he's just a Grandmaster. He's not unfathomable at all."
Yu Yanluo: "..."
As a grandmaster herself, it's hard to refute what she's saying.
Zuan then noticed another tall man not far from Shi Zhentian. He had an extremely broad back and incredibly well-developed muscles. He was wearing a short-sleeved shirt that revealed two large, tattooed arms covered in various ferocious patterns. He looked like a gangster boss.
1200ksw.
Looking at Hu Yong and the others, who used to be so unruly, standing obediently behind him like kittens, Zu An thought to himself, "This must be Hu Qianxiao."
Thinking of the rumors between him and Tu Shanyu, Zu An wondered if he would be so angry that he would unite with the Lion Clan if he knew that he had slept with Tu Shanyu first.
Speaking of which, Tu Shanyu hasn't come to the royal court yet. I wonder if something happened to her or if she was delayed by something.
While feeling worried, I noticed that Princess Soren was also following behind a middleman, who seemed to be her elder in the demon realm.
They still have Shang Liuyu's position, and are even above Shi Zhentian and Hu Qianxiao. This shows how powerful the Sea Clan and Demon Clan are among the demon race. Unless Shi Zhentian and Hu Qianxiao determine a Beast King, it will be impossible for them to stand on equal footing with the two races.
At this moment, Black Tooth Fei began the ritual, and the various novel and bizarre procedures left Zu An speechless, thinking that the differences between the demon race and the human race were indeed very large.
Then the Demon Emperor spoke, the gist of which was to thank people from all races for traveling thousands of miles to attend the conference. Zu An secretly sneered, thinking, "Isn't this just a way of blatantly summoning people from all races to the royal court to test their loyalty? Who would dare not come?"
However, there were indeed some exceptions. For example, neither the Dragon King of the Sea Clan nor the Demon King of the Demon Clan came in person, but only sent representatives. This shows how powerful the two clans are, and that they are not afraid of the Demon Emperor.
In addition, although the chieftains of races like the Lion Clan and the Tiger Clan came, the rising stars of the younger generation, such as the Western Lion and the Northern Tiger, did not come. Obviously, they were also worried about something unexpected happening at the royal court, so they left their most capable heirs in the clan to avoid being wiped out.
Next, the Demon Emperor announced that he had chosen the Golden Crow Prince as his successor. He said that once the representatives of the various races had decided on their successors, the succession ceremony would begin, and he hoped that all races would continue to support the Golden Crow Prince.
The Golden Crow Prince surveyed the entire scene with smug satisfaction, accepting the congratulations and worship from all the tribes.
The second prince, standing below the platform, looked furious and lowered his head, his face dark and his thoughts unreadable.
The third prince, fourth prince, and youngest prince beside him looked normal, because they were not qualified to compete for the throne, regardless of age, seniority, or ability.
"That sounds nice, but it's just forcing all the races to pledge allegiance to the new emperor." Yun Jianyue scoffed. "That bird-like Golden Crow Prince has been making a fool of himself all this time, yet it hasn't affected his decision at all?"
Yu Yanluo said, "Judging from my interactions with people of various races these days, the Demon Emperor must have been very fond of the late Great Demon Queen, and naturally extended that affection to her own son, the Golden Crow Prince."
Yun Jianyue was somewhat surprised: "I didn't expect that this Demon Emperor is actually a devoted person. Compared to some people, he is far more noble."
As he spoke, he glanced sideways at Zu'an.
Zuan Waterfall Sweat: "His devotion is just talk. After the Great Demon Queen passed away, he still took in many concubines, including a beauty like the Little Demon Queen."
Yun Jianyue snorted: "Men are all the same, no good."
Zuan: "..."
This woman has never had any romantic experience. What man in the world would dare to betray her?
The result, however, is this cynical and misanthropic demeanor.
Yan Xuehen said, "In fact, the Golden Crow Prince is also a dragon among men. At his age, his cultivation and combat power are already quite extraordinary. It's just that he was unlucky and was defeated by Azu twice in a row."
Zu An looked embarrassed: "Ah, it's rare for Sister Yan to praise me like this."
"Who praised you? You were able to beat him only because your techniques were a perfect match. Against other experts, your combat strength might not even surpass that of the Golden Crow Prince." Yan Xuehen spat, her face flushed, and turned away, ignoring him.
Yun Jianyue, standing to the side, looked puzzled. She felt that the Ice Stone Woman had changed recently, but she couldn't quite put her finger on it.
