The Second Prince said urgently, "The elites of all races are now trapped. If we don't lead people to rescue them in time, their entire army will be wiped out, and our demon race will be finished as well. How can we, with just a mere Iron Plains City, withstand the endless demons?"
The Peacock King said in a deep voice, "This matter is of great importance and requires careful consideration..."
The second prince was anxious: "As the saying goes, speed is of the essence in war. The elite forces of various races in the sealed land may be wiped out at any time. How can we take our time to plan?"
Peacock King hesitated for a moment, knowing that if the Little Demon Queen's army was wiped out, he would not be able to hold the place.
Just then, Kong Nanwu spoke up, "Please, Second Prince, enter the city first so we can discuss the specific details."
The Second Prince was overjoyed: "Thank you so much, Sister Nanwu!"
He then summoned his men to prepare to enter the city, and the soldiers cheered.
At this moment, Kong Nanwu said crisply, "Second Prince, please don't misunderstand. We are asking you to enter the city alone."
The second prince's face immediately darkened: "What do you mean by this?"
Kong Nanwu said apologetically, "Please forgive us, Second Prince. We bear the heavy responsibility of defending the city and cannot take any risks."
The second prince was furious: "You mean my men will be a threat to you if they enter the city? We've fought bravely on the front lines, losing most of our brothers, and now many of us are seriously wounded. Is this how you treat us frontline soldiers? Aren't you afraid of alienating the others?"
His soldiers began to clamor, and many of the more short-tempered ones even started cursing her for being heartless.
His words were so persuasive that even many soldiers on the city wall couldn't help but show signs of reluctance.
Kong Nanwu said coldly, "The Second Prince is also a renowned general. He should know that we cannot easily let people into the city under these circumstances. Afterwards, I will personally apologize to all the soldiers. In addition, the Peacock Clan will prepare a generous gift for each of them."
"Everyone's about to die, who wants your generous gifts!" The Second Prince cursed angrily, but no matter what he said, Kong Nanwu remained unmoved.
The Peacock King was initially somewhat hesitant, but he always trusted his daughter's wisdom. He opened his mouth, but ultimately said nothing.
Just then, the Second Prince suddenly thought of something and hurriedly waved his hand. Soon, a beautiful woman with a graceful figure was brought out from the camp: "If you don't believe me, you should believe Queen Medusa. She has a close relationship with the Regent and is also a close friend of the Little Demon Queen. She is going to war alongside the Little Demon Queen this time. She wouldn't lie to you, would she?"
As he spoke, he secretly transmitted his voice to Yu Yanluo: "If you don't do as we agreed before, not only will your two dear little maids lose their lives, but I will also immediately trigger the Soul-Devouring Spider within you. At that time, you will become a walking corpse that can be controlled by others. I don't think you would want to see that happen."
Yu Yanluo remained calm and nodded slightly.
Although the other party treated them with courtesy overall, how could they not be wary of these prisoners? They had previously used the Soul-Devouring Spider's poison on her when she was off guard, precisely to use it at this crucial moment.
Even Kong Nanwu was somewhat moved: "Queen Medusa? Are the Little Demon Queen and the Regent well?"
Yu Yanluo took a deep breath and slowly said, "The Regent is still well, but the Little Demon Queen is not so sure."
The Second Prince, standing to the side, smirked, wanting to exaggerate the Little Demon Queen's situation as much as possible so that they would be eager to send troops to rescue her.
"What happened to the Little Demon Queen?" Peacock King asked hurriedly.
At this moment, Yu Yanluo suddenly said quickly, "The Second Prince has betrayed the demon race and colluded with demons. You must not open the city gates!"
The Second Prince's smug smile froze on his face. He was both shocked and furious. How dare she!
