The Crown Prince's rebuttal completely angered the Second Prince, and the endless quarrel began again, with neither of them giving in!
All the ministers in the Golden Palace looked helpless. Ever since Mr. Yan announced his abdication, the quarrels have never stopped!
It can be said that: there is a small quarrel every three days and a big quarrel every five days!
This also caused the strength of the Skyfire Holy Court to decline significantly in recent years, and many useful policies could not be implemented. Originally, it was not a big deal. After all, with the strength of the Skyfire Holy Court, this loss was nothing!
But the sudden rise of the Demon Cult changed everything. Now that the Demon Cult's army has arrived, the two of them are still thinking about killing each other's forces!
It can be seen that the current battle for the throne has entered a life-and-death stage!
But none of the ministers dared to stop them, because the last minister who tried to stop the quarrel had been executed by slow slicing because he stepped into the Golden Palace with his left foot first!
Just when the argument was getting heated!
Cough cough!
A cough was heard, and then an old man in a eunuch's robe appeared in the hall. It was Wei Ting!
"Okay, Crown Prince and Second Prince, stop arguing!" Wei Ting said with a frown as he looked at the two people quarreling.
The Crown Prince and the Second Prince glanced at Wei Ting who had come out, a gleam of light flashed in their eyes, and they stopped arguing!
Many ministers breathed a sigh of relief when they saw Wei Ting appear. Although Wei Ting was only a eunuch chief and had no real power, don't forget that this is a fantasy world!
Venerable Wei Ting's fourth-level strength has established his status in the Holy Skyfire Court. Even the two princes dare not be disrespectful to him!
"General Manager Wei, please give us your judgment. The Crown Prince actually ordered the Tianlong Army to resist the millions of demon soldiers of the Demon Cult for ten days. Isn't this just asking them to die?" The Second Prince looked at Wei Ting and complained.
Wei Ting waved his hand and was about to say something when he heard hurried footsteps outside...
Tatt! Tatt! Tatt…
"Report..."
An armored guard ran madly into the Golden Throne Hall, knelt on one knee on the ground, and said quickly:
"Report, urgent military information has come from the front line. The Demon Cult army has captured Bianhuang City an hour ago!"
"The million-strong Tianlong Army was completely annihilated, and the commander Ding Xiu was killed in the battle!"
What?
Upon hearing the news, the Second Prince jumped up instantly, a trace of disbelief flashed in his eyes, and he shouted loudly:
"How is it possible? All of the millions of Tianlong soldiers are at the semi-saint level, and Ding Xiu can even burst out the combat power of the third level of the Venerable. How could he die so easily!"
Not only the Second Prince, but even the Crown Prince and many senior ministers were all filled with disbelief. The news was truly too terrifying!
What do you mean the Demon Cult destroyed the Tianlong Army an hour ago? You should know that the Demon Cult army just arrived at Bianhuang City an hour and a half ago!
Doesn't that mean that the Demon Cult army killed a million Tianlong soldiers in less than half an hour?
"Could it be that the legend is true, that the leader of the Demon Cult is invincible, and his demon soldiers are also invincible?"
A minister of rites spoke slowly, instantly causing a sense of depression in the Golden Throne Hall!
"snort!"
A cold snort was heard, and endless waves instantly spread throughout the entire Golden Palace, and the Minister of Rites who had just spoken was directly shocked to death!
"You are a scoundrel who has deceived the people with your lies. You deserve to die!" Wei Ting glanced at the dead Minister of Rites, a trace of coldness flashed in his eyes, and then he looked at the guards and questioned:
"How was the Tianlong Army destroyed? Was it because of the demon Zhou, or was there some other reason? Please tell me in detail!"
Other civil and military officials also stared at the guard. They also wanted to know why the Tianlong Army was destroyed so quickly!
The guard was so frightened that he trembled for a moment. He did not dare to hesitate and directly described what happened on the battlefield in detail!
As the guard spoke, he noticed that the faces of everyone in the hall changed!
"What, you mean it was the Twelve Demon Kings who killed Ding Xiu, and the other high-ranking members of the Demon Cult did not take action?" The Second Prince questioned the guard, as if he had heard something strange.
The situation is similar for other civil and military ministers. As giants in Yangzhou, they have a deep understanding of the Demon Cult over the years!
Of course, they knew about the Twelve Demon Kings. They were the absolute high-level members of the Demon Cult, but they also knew about the cultivation of the Twelve Demon Kings. Ten years ago, they were only at the third or fourth level of the Great Saint at most!
Only ten years had passed, yet he was able to kill Ding Xiu, who had the combat power of a Venerable!
Isn’t this a fucking joke to the world?
The guard must have been wrong. It wasn't the Twelve Demon Kings, but the Demon Zhou who took action!
"Yes, it's absolutely true. This is the photo bead sent from the front!" The guard looked at the disbelieving expressions on everyone's faces, hurriedly took out a photo bead and handed it to the second prince.
Then, the scene of the Demon Cult army attacking the Tianlong army began to appear on the photo bead, with two million demon soldiers frantically killing the Tianlong army!
The Twelve Demon Kings even beat Ding Xiu to death after he had been outbursts continuously!
"This... this... evil cult... what should we do?" A minister was so frightened that he wanted to say something discouraging, but he didn't dare to finish it!
Not only him, but all the other ministers had livid faces and fear in their eyes. The fighting power displayed by the Twelve Demon Kings was simply too strong!
The entire Golden Throne Hall fell silent in an instant!
At this moment, hurried footsteps were heard outside again!
"Report..."
An armored guard appeared outside the city, knelt on one knee, and quickly said: "Emergency military information has been received from the front line. The demon cult army has divided into three groups and is attacking our imperial city. More than fifty cities have been captured!"
Before everyone had digested this horrific news, another guard ran in and said loudly:
"Report... Urgent military information has been received from the front line. No one dares to stop the Demon Cult army wherever it passes. Many city lords have opened their cities and surrendered!"
"The Demon Cult's army is advancing rapidly, and they may reach the Imperial City by tonight at the earliest!"
Bang!
The prince smashed the chair under his seat with a slap, his eyes full of disbelief, and he muttered:
"How is this possible? The Demon Cult can actually attack the Imperial City in one day. If the Demon Cult wins, how can I inherit the throne?"
The prince immediately turned his gaze to Wei Ting and said in a deep voice: "General Manager Wei, please let father come out of seclusion, otherwise the demon cult army will attack the imperial city!"
"Yes, this is a matter of life and death, we must inform father!" The second prince also hurriedly echoed, not daring to contradict the crown prince.
The current situation does not allow them to quarrel. Once the Demon Cult really attacks the imperial city and destroys the Skyfire Empire, what's the point of them fighting for the throne?
I'm afraid they will all be skinned and eaten. After all, it is well known that people in the Demon Cult love to eat monsters!
The Skyfire Empire is an empire of monsters and beasts, and eighty percent of their ministers are monsters!
