Chapter 1811 Turning the Tables!

Upon hearing the question from the Angry Shield, the demon elders exchanged glances, none daring to be the first to respond.

Aside from the unicorn still arguing, emphasizing that the activation of "war buff" and the 'abuse of power' by the Angry Shield are two different things.

The rule-abiding idiot is still getting hung up on the procedures.

But the cunning old foxes had already foreseen how things would end.

After a moment of silence, it was the same old, seemingly very old demon elder, who appeared to be a tree root spirit, who coughed and spoke:

"Cough cough."

"Unicorn, calm down."

Whether Elder Fury Shield abused his power still needs to be investigated and studied by the Elders Council before a conclusion can be drawn.

"So let's put it aside for now."

"But right now, the activation of the special force field 'War Enhancement' is a fact that has already occurred and cannot be changed."

"This change must be inextricably linked to Liu Wenjian, the Demon King, and others entering the path of suffering."

"Therefore, before the full investigation results are available, Elder Fury Shield's merits outweigh his demerits."

"If we follow your request, Unicorn, and forcibly detain a demon elder whose merits outweigh his demerits, and submit him for trial..."

"What would other demons think if they saw this?"

"How will the entire Holy Land view our Elders Council?"

"But, but..." The unicorn wanted to say something more.

But before he could finish speaking, he was coldly interrupted by the opposing team's Angry Shield:

"What's the point?"

"Everything I have done is for the prosperity and strength of my Great Holy Domain!"

"I ask you, if there are no challengers on the Path of Suffering, will the special force field of 'War Blessing' be activated?"

"If I hadn't acted decisively before, and instead had been procrastinating like you, would my Holy Land have been able to seize the opportunity to wage war against the outside world so quickly?!"

"On the contrary, it's you, the one-horned one!"

"Could your previous actions in preventing Demon King Liu Wenjian from entering the Path of Suffering be considered as delaying the activation of the 'War Blessing' special force field?"

"Isn't your so-called following the rules and procedures a way of shirking your responsibilities and hindering the prosperity of my Great Holy Domain?!"

His words were so precise and airtight, leaving no room for error.

Combined with the special force field that has now been fully activated, it instantly reversed the situation that was unfavorable to his rage shield!

The unicorn's mouth was slightly open as it listened to the words that sounded like heavy hammer blows. Fine beads of sweat began to appear on its astonished face.

Is that what Fury Shield said?

It seems that's really the case...

But why did it turn out like this?

He was simply following the rules set by the elders and doing his duty!

How did they suddenly turn around and get accused of obstructing the activation of the special force field and hindering the prosperity of the Holy Land?!

"I...I..." The unicorn was speechless, and after a long while, it finally managed to utter a rebuttal:

"You were the one who abused your power first, so how did it become my fault?!"

"I abused my power?" Angry Shield sneered.

"Without my flexibility and adaptability, would the special force field have been activated so smoothly?"

"You say the elders are all incompetent and lazy, criticizing them as unambitious parasites, then what are you?"

"A decisive executor, a visionary pioneer?"

"If all the demon elders in the council were like you, would my Great Holy Domain have any chance of development at all?!"

With just a few words, he struck a chord with the demon elders.

It's still the Angry Shield that's capable of being a 'demon'!

Instead of blaming them for their previous 'reckless accountability' actions,

Instead, they spoke up for them and tried their best to save face for them.

Such good partners deserve to be maintained!

"Alright, now that things have come to this, I believe the elders have a general understanding of the situation." The demon elder, who resembled an old tree root, spoke again, summarizing the matter:

"Elder Wrath Shield is devoted to the Sanctuary and adaptable. Although he wasn't directly responsible for activating the special force field 'War Enhancement,' his contribution is undeniable!"

“I propose that the Elders’ Council temporarily record Elder Fury Shield’s merits, and then settle the accounts after this special force field is over.”

The demon elders all nodded in approval.

The demon elder, who resembled a tree root come to life, smiled amicably at the shield, as if silently asking if the other party was satisfied with his actions.

Angry Shield merely raised his eyebrows without uttering a word.

The demon elder, seemingly possessed by tree roots, immediately understood, and suddenly changed his tone, his words turning icy cold:

"...As for the unicorn, his slander of colleagues, abuse of power, and obstruction of the Holy Domain's development are irrefutable facts!"

“I propose that the Elders immediately detain this person in the Blood Prison to await trial!”

"Everyone can share their thoughts now."

After speaking, the demon elder looked around, appearing to be impartial in enforcing the law and humbly accepting the opinions of his colleagues.

“I agree with Elder Cuojie’s proposal.”

"Agree."

"I second the motion."

"It should have been done a long time ago..."

The demon elders spoke one after another, and apart from the unicorn himself, none of them objected.

Some impatient individuals even suggested skipping the trial process altogether and killing the unicorn on the spot.

The unicorn who was listening in was so frightened that he almost wet his pants on the spot.

Fortunately, Elder Cunjie, who resembled a tree root spirit, was not an impatient person. He politely declined the hurried suggestions and calmly said:

"Since everyone agrees with my proposal, let's express our opinions!"

"Those who disagree with detaining the unicorn on the spot and sending him to the Blood Prison, please raise your objections now."

None of the demon elders spoke up; their opinions were unanimously in agreement.

Elder Cuojie waited a moment, then nodded in satisfaction:

"Since everyone has agreed, let's implement it."

"Please trouble Elder Wrath Shield to assign two helpers to escort the unicorn to the Blood Prison..."

At this point, several demon elders who were on good terms with Wrath Shield immediately moved closer to the unicorn.

He seemed to be volunteering for the task.

Despite harboring a thousand grievances, the unicorn found it difficult to utter a word under the oppressive pressure of the elders' overwhelming majority.

They could only stand there, trembling, and resigned to their tragic fate.

But at this moment,

But the situation took a turn for the better in a way he never expected.

"Wait a moment, I have something to say." Wrath Shield suddenly spoke up, interrupting the actions of several demon elders.

"Hey, it's definitely better to execute them on the spot, right?"

A demon elder to the left of the unicorn couldn't wait to chime in.

"No... what I meant was that the special force field 'War Enhancement' has already been activated, and we can't afford to waste any of our high-end combat power."

"Although the unicorn made a mistake, he is still a demon elder."

"We don't need to rush to punish him. We can let him take the lead in the demonic tide and redeem himself through meritorious service!"

What do you all think?
