Witch Death Arc [7]
On the side of the demons, it was another gloomy cloud.
Demon Emperor Zeus originally wanted to use the pursuit behavior to save some face for himself and erect some prestige, but he didn't know that it would be self-defeating and his prestige would be ruined.
Of course, no one dared to say anything about him, no matter whether those high-ranking demons were disappointed or happy.
Glad? Oh, and of course there are happy ones. The Witch Emperor swept through the territory of the six demon lords, but didn't there still three that completely retained their strength? The strength of the six demon lords has been greatly damaged, and the remaining three naturally appear to be strong and elevated.
Inside the demon race, it is also not monolithic.
β¦β¦
"Don't make any trouble!" Zeus's face turned pale, he was annoyed by the recent struggle for power and profit among the high-level leaders of the demon clan, "If anyone dares to take advantage of the opportunity of the heavy losses of the six major territories to seek the status and interests of the six demon lords, I will never allow it!" Once such a despicable thing happens, the whole world will fight against it! β
"Your Majesty!" The Lord of Space and the other six Demon Lords immediately bowed down and echoed (the Lord of Time died, and his fellow disciples inherited the position of the Demon Lord). This mention of Zeus completely maintained their six damaged demon lords. Of course, this also has the full support of the six of them.
Zeus said in a dull voice: "Now that our people have been newly defeated, and the territory is scorched earth, we must resume production immediately." Some key broken fortresses must also be built quickly. During this time, our people must work together to get through this most difficult time. Any internal friction must not be tolerated. β
Most of the senior executives on the scene agreed. Yes, after this fiasco, the loss of the demon clan is too great, so big that it is unknown whether it can recuperate within a hundred years.
"However, we also have to find a way to cause some trouble for the Wu Clan!" Zeus said, "Otherwise, let them be directed against us with all their energy, and we will not be able to live in peace...... What do you all have? β
The three ministers and the Nine Demon Lords exchanged words, but they didn't say anything valuable.
In the end, Zeus frowned and ordered most of them to leave, leaving only the Lord of Space and the Lord of Killing. When they followed the previous Demon Emperor to besiege and kill Long Yin, these two people were parties and witnesses. Originally, there was the previous Lord of Time, but that one had already been shot by Xin Yao with an arrow in the middle of the war.
At this time, only Zeus and the two demon lords were left, and Zeus asked in a low voice: "Both, you followed the emperor to besiege and kill Long Yin, and confirmed that Long Yin died at that time?" β
The two demon lords glanced at each other, and then both nodded seriously. The Lord of Slaughter also added: "After being controlled by the first emperor, even the Dragon Soul Flash can't be cast, it's absolutely impossible." Chen and Long Yin belonged to the same tribe and knew this very well. β
Zeus shook his head and said, "However, the Witch Emperor wants me to 'hand over' Long Yin!" What does that mean? Could it be that they are sure that Long Yin is not dead? β
The two demon lords were surprised at the same time, and the killing lord was even more cold: "This ...... To be able to make such a positive judgment, it must be the war beast White Tiger of TongguΓ² Longyin. As long as both the master and the war beast are alive, the connection between the two sides will not be broken, it must be so! Can...... How is this possible? After being controlled by the first emperor, how could Long Yin not die! β
The Lord of Space also nodded and said, "At that time, the angle was not right, and the three of us were trying our best to block the Wu clan army below, and we really couldn't see all of them. However, it is an indisputable fact that Long Yin was controlled by the first emperor and lifted into the air. And at the same time that the first emperor shattered Long Yin, I could also feel Long Yin's death in an instant, which should not be wrong. β
That's weird......
Could it be that the structure of this guy Long Yin is different from others? Even if the body is shattered, it still exists in other special forms?
I don't understand.
However, the cunning Zeus was still thinking about it, saying, "But in any case, it means that the Wu clan will not be able to find the whereabouts of Long Yin. In that case, I think we can take advantage of it. β
"In fact, the Wu clan and the imperial inheritance of my clan are the same, and they all need the power of the will of the world. Originally, Long Yin had accumulated so much prestige, so it was difficult for others to inherit the throne. β
"And now, we can create an illusion that everyone in the Wu Clan will be disappointed and even angry with Long Yin! When the time comes, the people of the Wu clan will find out with grief and indignation that the inheritor chosen by their Witch Emperor is such an unbearable person. β
"At that time, hum, I'm afraid that the faith of the Wu clan will be extremely weak, and it will be even more difficult to gather the power of the will of the world."
The Lord of Space and the Lord of Killing looked at each other and nodded, although the current Demon Emperor was not as strong as the previous one, it seemed to be a lot more cunning than the previous one. No, it's a lot wiser.
β¦β¦
Subsequently, Zeus ordered the spies stationed among the witches to investigate the situation of the dragon. For a long time, the demon clan has not stopped infiltrating within the Wu clan, otherwise it would not have rebelled against so many Heavenly Witch-level masters one after another.
After a long period of investigation, the news reported by those spies was exactly the same.
Long Yin is indeed gone, and the entire Wu clan does not know his whereabouts, and even the Witch Emperor is anxious to look for him, but there is no trace. Now everyone suspects that Long Yin is dead, but his war beast White Tiger always insists that his master is not dead, and that strange connection with it still exists!
After Zeus received so many reports one after another, he had a number in his heart.
So, half a year after the end of that tragic war, the demons sent out a shocking message. After this news spread to the Wu Clan, it was three months later, and it detonated the anger of the entire Wu Clan!
This news is very simple - Long Yin, the head of the Nine Heavenly Witches of the Wu Clan, has announced his surrender to the Great Demon Emperor! Regardless of his previous suspicions, His Majesty the Demon Emperor announced the appointment of Long Yin as the "God of War Demon Lord", acting as the personal guard of His Majesty the Demon Emperor, and receiving the same level of treatment as the Nine Demon Lords, rewarding the two counties of the territory near the imperial capital......
When the news came, the entire Wu clan was about to explode.
Impossible, how could the Dragon Hidden Heavenly Witch rebel! He is the hero of the Wu Clan, the head of the Nine Heavenly Witches, and the inheritor of the Witch Emperor, how could he rebel!
He...... Even if he is captured and commits suicide, he can't rebel, otherwise where is the dignity of the Wu clan!
Anyone can betray the Wu Clan, but you Long Yin shouldn't, you are the future Wu Emperor!!
In an instant, Long Yin went from a hero of the Wu clan to the number one traitor in the history of the Wu clan.
In the past 10,000 years, there has never been a mutinous Witch Emperor. Therefore, as the inheritor of the Witch Emperor and the head of the Nine Heavenly Witches, Long Yin naturally became the highest-ranking and strongest traitor in ten thousand years.
Of course, more Wu people chose not to believe it, after all, it was too unbelievable.
However, the Demon Emperor used some illusion magic skills to create an image of Long Yin, and appeared several times in the imperial capital, is it difficult? It's not difficult at all.
In that illusion, the created "Long Yin" grovels and obeys Zeus, with a despicable traitorous face. But the image is just right, which makes this "Long Yin" maintain some pride, and disdain to contact people other than Zeus. In this way, it is less likely to expose this illusion.
In the imperial capital, there are also spies who are bought by the Wu clan. The spies sent the news back to the Wic, and it seemed to be confirmed.
The entire Wu clan was collectively silent.
However, everyone will not be silent in their hearts, but will roar in the depths of their hearts.
"Witch Emperor, what kind of bastard heir are you choosing!"
"Yes, Long Yin is very powerful. However, this kind of traitorous and boneless villain, no matter how strong he is, what about it? Is he qualified to be the next Witch Emperor? β
"Hey, no matter what, Long Yin is also a high-level member of the Wu Clan...... Even if he was born in the folk in his early years, he was finally in a high position in the following decades. After decades of fighting in the big dye vat of the high-level, I'm afraid that I have also been contaminated with the shameless characteristics of the high-level Wu clan, hey......"
All kinds of questions, all kinds of sighs.
Even if the Witch Emperor firmly believes that there is fraud in it, he even speculates that the announcement of the so-called Dragon Yin Rebellion must be an illusion created by the Demon Emperor to sow discord. In fact, the speculation is completely in line with the facts.
But do the common people believe it? Even if some people choose to believe, many people still have strong doubts after all.
Moreover, the common people have reasons to be suspicious - didn't your high-level officials say that Long Yin is not dead? Even Long Yin's war beast, the White Tiger, swore an oath and insisted that his master was not dead. Well, since you're not dead, why haven't you shown up for so long? If you have the ability, you can let Long Yin come forward to clarify!
However, Long Yin could not appear.
The longer the time drags on, the deeper this suspicion becomes. So much so that the Witch Emperor sadly discovered that it was no longer possible to unite the will of the people and complete the inheritance of the imperial system
For, the power of the will that can be used must come from devout faith. With that attitude of doubt, even strict suspicion, how can these people be expected to dedicate their willpower again?
β¦β¦
In the palace, the Witch Emperor sighed helplessly: "Long Yin, I know that you kid will not be a traitor, but where is you bastard!" β
"The longer you don't show up, the deeper the suspicion of the people!"
"Even, the suspicion and anger of the entire Wu ruling class became more and more intense. Even if I support other inheritors, no one will be convinced. β
"Today, it is so difficult to unite the will of the people. Add you such a thing, this ...... Should the imperial rule really be cut off in my hands......"
β¦β¦
Border Yongzhou.
Facing the familiar and cold battlefield of witches and demons, the Great Heaven Wu Xinyao was in a daze.
For months, the news of Long Yin's rebellion broke her heart. She didn't believe that Long Yin would really rebel, and her heartbreak was how the common people scolded Long Yin as a traitor, and he was the biggest traitor in 10,000 years.
And she is the wife of this traitor, even if she hasn't been married. And according to the original agreement, the Lord of Time was killed, and this procedure should have been ...... Hey, how could that be.
"Eldest sister, are you still waiting for the boss?" Dabai, who turned into a cat on the side, hung his head in frustration, "Or I'...... I simply lied that the connection was broken and said the boss was dead. Letting the boss bear such an eternal infamy, I sound very distressed and distressed. β
Xin Yao smiled bitterly and shook her head: "No, once the seeds of doubt take root and sprout, they will spread like weeds like crazy, and they will no longer be eradicated cleanly and useless...... His Majesty said, give us ten years - wait for him. β
