"Ancient Demon Venerable!"

Listening to Li Ming's name, all the Spirit Clan elders in the main hall looked at each other one by one, not knowing what the situation was?

"Your Excellency, could you please explain carefully, what is the situation of the Ancient Demon Venerable?" Youlan Empress Yu's face was confused, so she hurriedly asked.

At this time, Li Ming knew the situation, and the emotional spirit clan didn't know what happened to the demon clan, nor did he know the existence of the ancient demon venerable, but with the spirit clan's understanding of the demon legion, he felt that the strength of the demon legion this time was too strong, far from being able to compete with them, so he was ready to give up Peace City and leave this dangerous place.

"These situations, Elder Linghuai and Elder Lingyan have seen with my own eyes, some people may question me when I say it, so please ask the two elders to explain it to you." Li Ming turned his head and said.

"Elders, what do you all know?" Empress Youlan asked curiously.

"Patriarch Qiyu, we have been accompanying Engong during this time, and we have seen a lot of legends in the ancient god realm, and the most thrilling thing for us is the appearance of the ancient demon clan...... "Elder Linghuai began to tell everyone in detail what he knew......

He started from accompanying Li Ming to unlock the seal of the Zhentian Seal, until he entered Heping City and found that the Dragon Clan was plotted against and the Dragon King was injured, until he found the Ancient Demon Soul and helped the Dragon Clan escape from the Holy Land, and then investigated the matter of the Fengwu Mountain Range and the Red Flame Fire Phoenix, and accidentally discovered the situation of the Death Altar, and finally the identity of the Ancient Demon Venerable was ascertained, and the matter of the successful resurrection of the Demon Flame Vermilion Bird was told from beginning to end......

The elders of the Spirit Clan widened their eyes when they heard this, and they kept exclaiming, as if they were all shocked by this whole incident.

"I can testify to the words of the old wood, His Excellency Engong is here to remind the patriarch and the clansmen that the conspiracy of the Demon Venerable must be stopped." Elder Lingyan nodded and said.

"You should know by now, the previous battle was just an attempt by the two empires to expand their territory, but now the Ancient Demon Venerable wants to unify the entire Spirit Realm, and then turn this place into a new Demon Realm! At that time, the earth will wither, and the entire spirit world will become a barren world, and you spirit race will suffer the most! Li Ming Zhengse said.

"That's exactly what happened!" All the Spirit Clan elders frowned in unison when they heard this, and they were all very worried.

"Your Majesty, if what the two elders and this Excellency said is indeed correct, then our previous plan is completely wrong......," said one of the elders.

"That's true, it seems that my previous considerations are superfluous, if it is really the Ancient Demon Venerable who wants to occupy the Spirit Realm, no matter where our Spirit Clan flees, we will not be able to get rid of the Demon Venerable's clutches!" The Great Elder nodded and said.

"Could it be that this is the reason why both the Protoss and the Heavenly Mandate Royal Family have given you command of the military?" Empress Youlan asked.

"Yes, now that the Divine Venerable and Her Majesty the Empress are aware of this matter, that's why I have full authority to command the two armies against the threat of the Demon Venerable. And now, the Demon Venerable has come to the city, and tomorrow he will officially enter the Peace City and launch an attack on the Mandate of Heaven Contract. If this step of its plan succeeds, the consequences must be clear to the patriarch. Li Ming said.

"Destroying the contract stone tablet is equivalent to the Heavenly Mandate Empire taking the lead in tearing up the contract, then the two major legions of the entire Heavenly Mandate Empire will be affected by the contract curse within the scope of Peace City, and all their strength will be reduced...... Demon Venerable: This is to occupy Peace City faster and safer. Empress Youlan nodded and said.

"This rule is really helpless, why doesn't the one who attacks the stone tablet take the initiative to start a war?" Li Ming has always thought that there is something wrong with this condition.

"Your question is very good, I can tell you that if it is an ordinary person who attacks the stone tablet, it will be considered by the contract to take the initiative to initiate a battle, but now the situation you said is very clear, the peace contract in the spirit world is only valid for people in the spirit world, but if it is the ancient demon clan who does it himself, the contract curse will only take effect on the Mandate of Heaven Empire. When ordinary demons and Chaos Empire warriors attack the stele, the contract curse will fall on them. Do you understand that I explain this? Empress Youlan said.

"Ah...... It turned out to be so! Li Ming finally figured it all out, emotionally speaking, it was with his special identity that the Ancient Demon Venerable came up with such a strategy.

Then tomorrow, the one who enters Peace City and takes the lead in attacking the contract stele will definitely be the Demon Venerable himself!

Only NPCs who are not constrained by the peace pact between the two empires can do this......

"We spirits have always been a neutral race, and in order to ensure peace between the two empires, our ancestors accepted the invitation when the two empires signed a peace contract and took on the important task of protecting the city of peace. But now, the flames of war are about to ignite, and our spirit clan has no way to retreat, and we can only fight hard! Empress Youlan looked at the group of elders on both sides.

"Obey the orders of the patriarch, and the Spirit Clan will fight to the death!" All the elders replied in unison, and the voices resounded throughout the hall.

"Your Excellency is satisfied now, since there is no way to avoid it, even if all the Spirit Clan dies in Peace City, we will not give up our mission." Empress Youlan looked at Li Ming and said with a faint smile.

"Patriarch don't worry so much, I'm here to negotiate with you a way to protect Peace City and ensure the safety of the Spirit Clan." Li Ming nodded and said.

"Do you already have a way? The appearance of the Ancient Demon Venerable has exceeded our expectations, because from the information we have obtained so far, the strength of the entire Demon Race and the Chaos Legion is extremely strong, even if you have all the command rights of the two major legions of the Mandate of Heaven, you can't compete with the army of the Ancient Demon Venerable, not to mention the power of our Spirit Race, our mission is to defend, but we can't take the initiative to attack. Empress Youlan asked.

"I understand all of this, so what I want to say is that as long as the patriarch finds a way to help me protect the contract stele, I can ensure the safety of the Spirit Clan, even if the Peace City cannot be defended, I can provide a safe environment for all the Spirit Clan to take refuge temporarily." Li Ming said.

"Guarding the Stele of the Contract is our mission, but if the Ancient Demon Venerable takes action personally, even I can't compete with it." Empress Youlan frowned and said.

"In terms of strength, the current Demon Venerable is indeed very amazing, but I only need the patriarch to help me complete the two conditions, and I don't need you to fight to the death." Li Ming said.

"Oh, what do we need to promise you?" The Empress Youlan and the elders were all overjoyed.

"The first condition, I want the nobles to help me defend the Mandate of Heaven Contract for a period of time, and during this time, no matter what the circumstances, I can't let the Demon Venerable destroy the contract stone tablet." Li Ming said.

"I can promise you, but if you tell us the exact defense time, I'm afraid we won't be able to bear it if it's too long." Empress Youlan said.

"Then I'll have to ask the patriarch what the defensive barrier of the contract stone tablet is." Li Ming said with a smile.
