Zaun wasn't only accompanied by the Little Demon Queen; standing beside her were Queen Medusa, an elven princess, and a demon princess...
What about those two women with extraordinary demeanor?
Judging from their figures and demeanor, they seemed to be the two who represented the snake clan in the arena at the last tournament. However, the two women were wearing veils at that time, and no one expected them to be so stunningly beautiful.
As a prince of the demon race, the second prince had seen countless beauties since childhood, but he had never seen so many of such exceptional quality.
What makes this Zuan so special that it can possess so many stunning beauties?
The Second Prince's anger level increased by 303...
However, this was merely a male's instinctive jealousy and reaction. He was a powerful and ruthless man, and his attention was quickly shifted from these women. Looking at the young prince in his yellow robe, he said sternly, "Fifth brother, how dare you wear the imperial robe without permission! Do you know that this is a crime punishable by the extermination of nine generations of your family!"
The young prince was quite young and was usually afraid of his fierce second brother. Now, when the prince shouted at him, he trembled and instinctively shrank back.
Suddenly, a pair of warm, steady hands landed on his shoulders, and Zu An's voice rang out: "Always talking about executing nine generations of relatives, has the Second Prince forgotten that you are also one of his nine generations of relatives?"
The little prince suddenly felt a sense of security and instinctively gripped Zu'an's sleeve tightly, even more so than when he grabbed the little demon queen.
The little demon queen felt both gratified and puzzled, and for a moment she couldn't quite explain her thoughts.
The second prince suddenly felt a tightness in his chest, as if I had told him I could fight my way from the royal court gates all the way to the palace without blinking, and then he asked me if my eyes were dry.
He snorted coldly: "The throne of the Demon Emperor is not something you can sit on just by wearing an imperial robe. Such treason is outrageous, and I will clean house today."
"The old Demon Emperor personally passed the throne to the young prince, and this is proof. The young prince's succession is legitimate. Second Prince, do not make a mistake!" Zu An raised the Sun-Shooting Bow, which immediately drew a chorus of exclamations from the Second Prince's camp.
The Sun-Shooting Bow is a renowned divine weapon of the demon race. For a long time, it was held by the demon emperor, and it would only be passed on to the next demon emperor when he was about to abdicate. Over time, the Sun-Shooting Bow became a symbol of imperial power.
Now that everyone has seen the Sun-Shooting Bow in Zu'an's hands, how could they not be shocked?
"How did you get the Sun-Shooting Bow?" The Second Prince was both shocked and furious. What he feared most was the Sun-Shooting Bow on the Crown Prince's person. Although he was confident that he had a high probability of defeating the Crown Prince with his true strength, it was not so certain if the other party had a divine weapon like the Sun-Shooting Bow.
At first, I was glad that my tactics were appropriate and that the Crown Prince did not have the opportunity to take out the Sun-Shooting Bow.
Who knew that after killing him, they didn't find the Sun-Shooting Bow. They were wondering where the other party had hidden it, never expecting it to appear in Zaun's hands.
Zuan said calmly, "Of course it was given to me by the old Demon Emperor. Did you really think I could snatch this thing from the Demon Emperor?"
The three goddesses, Yu, Yan, and Yun, who knew the truth, had strange expressions, but the others had no doubts at all, because the Demon Emperor was so powerful that if he didn't give it up, no one else could take it.
The second prince was also surprised and doubtful: "But why would Father give you the Sun-Shooting Bow? Wasn't it with the Crown Prince before? I think you snatched it from him."
Zuan sneered, "The Golden Crow Prince has been with the old Demon Emperor in the secret realm the whole time. Try taking one and see what happens."
"You've entered the secret realm too?" The Second Prince was surprised. It wasn't a secret that the Crown Prince and the Demon Emperor had entered the secret realm in the imperial mausoleum; everyone in the upper echelons knew about it.
"Of course, the Golden Crow Prince was treacherous and launched a sneak attack on the old Demon Emperor in the secret realm. Therefore, the old Demon Emperor was heartbroken and stripped him of his ownership of the Sun-Shooting Bow. Before his death, he handed the Sun-Shooting Bow to me, asking me to assist the young prince in ascending the throne." Zu An said calmly. The young prince was too young, and there would inevitably be a lot of criticism. He had to make sure that the young prince ascended the throne legitimately.
But there was still a crown prince ahead of him, so he had a flash of inspiration and this argument not only discredited the crown prince's legitimacy, but also made the young prince's ascension to the throne seem reasonable.
Yan Xuehen and the other two women secretly admired him. This guy really had some quick wit. This way, he not only avoided becoming the enemy of the entire demon race by killing the demon emperor, but also solved the problem of the title between the crown prince and the little prince.
The little demon queen was also somewhat surprised. This was the first time she had heard the details of the demon emperor's death. She guessed that there must be more to the story, but she wisely did not ask any further questions. This version of events was most beneficial to her and her son.
The others were in an uproar, many of them learning of the old demon emperor's death for the first time, and many even wept bitterly.
Others were utterly shocked, because these words revealed far too much information.
The second prince thought to himself, "So that's what happened in the secret realm. No wonder..."
Even if it were true, he wouldn't accept it: "Hmph, what a joke. The Crown Prince has always been favored by the Emperor and will pass the throne to him. What motive would he have to harm the Emperor?"
As he spoke, he became somewhat detached from the story, never expecting that one day he would actually be speaking up for the Crown Prince.
He coughed and continued, "Moreover, the Demon Emperor's cultivation is at the Divine level. Even if the Crown Prince were to plot against him, he wouldn't be able to harm him."
This statement was echoed by his subordinates. "Yes, what kind of existence is the Demon Emperor? He's invincible! Even if he was ambushed by the Crown Prince, how could he possibly be in any danger?"
This made even those on Xiao Yaohou's side look at Zuan with some suspicion.
Zuan seemed to have anticipated his questioning and calmly explained, "It was only because there was a clue to the elixir of immortality in the secret realm that the old demon emperor defeated the powerful guardian of the elixir of immortality. Just as he was about to obtain the elixir, the crown prince suddenly launched a sneak attack, which left the old demon emperor severely injured and beyond medical help."
