Chapter 413: The Shock of the Holy Skyfire Court
The rebuttal of the crown prince completely angered the second prince, and the endless quarrel began again, and no one gave in!
The elders in the Golden Palace were all helpless. Since Yan Zun announced his abdication, this quarrel has never stopped!
It can be said that: a small quarrel every three days, a big quarrel every five days!
This also caused the strength of the Heavenly Fire Holy Court to decline a lot in recent years, and many useful policies could not be implemented. It was nothing at first, after all, with the strength of the Heavenly Fire Holy Court, this loss was nothing!
But the sudden rise of the Demon Cult changed everything. Now the Demon Cult army has come, and the two are still thinking about killing each other's forces!
It can be seen that the current battle for the throne has entered the stage of life and death!
But the elders did not dare to stop it, because the last elder who stopped the quarrel between the two had been executed by Lingchi because his left foot stepped into the Golden Palace first!
Just when the quarrel was getting white-hot!
Ahem!
A cough sounded, and then an old man in a eunuch robe appeared in the hall. It was Wei Ting!
"Okay, Crown Prince, Second Prince, stop arguing!" Wei Ting frowned as he looked at the two people arguing.
The Crown Prince and Second Prince looked at Wei Ting who came out, and a gleam of light flashed in their eyes, and they stopped arguing!
Many elders were relieved when they saw Wei Ting appear. Although Wei Ting was just a eunuch steward and had no real power, don't forget that this is a fantasy world!
The strength of the fourth level of Wei Ting Venerable has established his status in the Holy Court of Heavenly Fire. Even the two crown princes dare not be rude to him!
"General Manager Wei, you come to judge. 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 asking them to die!" The second prince looked at Wei Ting and complained.
Wei Ting waved his hand, and just as he was about to say something, a burst of hurried footsteps came from outside.
Thump! Thump! Thump.!
"Report!"
An armored guard ran into the Golden Palace frantically, knelt on one knee, and said quickly:
"Report, urgent military information from the front line, the Demon Cult army has captured Bianhuang City an hour ago!"
"The million Tianlong Army was completely destroyed, and the commander Ding Xiu has died in battle!"
What?
After hearing this news, the second prince jumped up instantly, with a flash of disbelief in his eyes, and shouted loudly:
"How is it possible? The million Tianlong Army is all in the realm of half-saints, 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 cabinet ministers, all looked unbelieving, the news was really too scary!
What do you mean that the Demon Cult destroyed the Tianlong Army an hour ago? You must know that the Demon Cult army had just landed in Bianhuang City an hour and a half ago!
Doesn't that mean that the Demon Cult army killed the million Tianlong Army 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 said leisurely, and instantly a sense of depression was created in the Golden Palace!
"Hmph!"
A cold snort sounded, and infinite fluctuations instantly spread throughout the Golden Palace, and the minister of rites who had just spoken was directly shocked to death!
"You are misleading the people with your lies, damn it!" Wei Ting glanced at the dead minister of rites, a trace of coldness flashed in his eyes, and then he looked at the guard and asked:
"How was the Tianlong Army destroyed? Was it because of the demon Zhou, or other reasons? Please tell me in detail!"
The other civil and military ministers also stared at the guard. They also wanted to know why the Tianlong Army was destroyed so quickly!
The guard was frightened and trembled for a moment. He did not dare to hesitate and directly described the battlefield in detail!
As the guard spoke, he found 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 looked at the guard and questioned, as if he had heard a strange incident.
The other civil and military ministers were similar. As giants in Yangzhou, they had a deep understanding of the Demon Cult over the years!
They naturally knew about the Twelve Demon Kings, who were the absolute high-ranking 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!
It has only been ten years, and they were able to kill Ding Xiu, who had the combat power of a Venerable!
Isn't this a joke?
It must be that the guard was wrong. It wasn't the Twelve Demon Kings, but the Demon Zhou who took action!
"Yes, it's true. This is the photo bead sent from the front!" The guard looked at the unbelieving expressions on everyone's faces, and hurriedly took out a photo bead and handed it to the second prince.
Then the photo bead began to show the scene of the Demon Cult army attacking the Tianlong Army, and two million demon soldiers frantically killing the Tianlong Army!
The twelve demon kings even beat Ding Xiu to death for his continuous outbursts!
"What should we do with the Demon Cult?" A minister was so frightened that he was about to say something discouraging, but he didn't dare to finish it!
Not only him, but other ministers all had livid faces and fear in their eyes. It was really that the fighting power shown by the twelve demon kings was too strong!
The entire Jinluan Palace was instantly silent!
At this moment, a burst of hurried footsteps came from 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 routes and is attacking our imperial city. More than fifty cities have been captured!"
Before everyone digested this horrible news, another guard ran in and said loudly:
"Report, urgent military information from the front line, no one dared to stop the demon cult army wherever it passed, and many city lords opened their cities to surrender!"
"The demon cult army is advancing rapidly, and it may reach the imperial city as early as tonight!"
Bang!
The prince slapped the chair under his seat and broke it. His eyes were full of disbelief, and he murmured:
"How is this possible? The demon cult can reach the imperial city in one day. If the demon cult wins, how can I inherit the throne?"
The prince instantly looked at Wei Ting and said in a deep voice:
"General Manager Wei, let my father come out of seclusion, otherwise the demon cult army will attack the imperial city!"
"Yes, this is a matter of life and death, and I must inform my father!" The second prince also hurriedly echoed, not daring to sing against the prince.
The situation now does not allow them to argue. Once the Demon Cult really attacks the imperial city and destroys the Skyfire Empire, what is the point of them fighting for the throne!
I am afraid they will all be skinned and eaten. After all, it is well known that the people in the Demon Cult love to eat monsters!
And the Skyfire Empire is even more of a monster empire. Most of their ministers are monsters!
