The screen turns. He Yu and Lan Yi appeared in the Demon Clan's Great Hall again.

Unlike in the past, the demon king sat on it.

The four elders below protested and crusade, and the voices of quarrels continued. He Yu vaguely heard that they seemed to be asking the Demon King to execute the blue clothes. From the altar to the council chamber, the blue coat did not have any expression. As if it is none of your business, or when a person encounters some major changes that cannot be dealt with or changed, he chooses to be numb.

"Enough. The demon king roared and said, "Have you said enough? After all, Lan Yi is the queen of this king, and you pushed it hard at the beginning, but now what's wrong? As soon as something happens, you have to blame all the mistakes on her? This king knows that Lan Yi is certainly wrong, and she is also deceived by the human race, so the crime will not lead to death!"

"King, although the blue clothes are not guilty to death, everything is because of her after all. If she hadn't secretly brought that human race to my demon clan, how could the next thing have happened. Created my demon clan to neglect to take precautions on the night of the king's wedding, and suffered heavy losses. ”

The four elders are wind, fire, water and wood. Wind and fire are a man and a woman. Mizuki is fat and thin, and it is Elder Mu who speaks. Elder Wind is in charge of internal and external information, large and small accident records, and the defense of the clan. Elder Fire is in charge of all agricultural and textile festivals in the clan. Elder Shui is in charge of the medical affairs of the whole clan, including the research and development of alchemy, and the cultivation of new stars. Elder Mu mainly focuses on mechanical weapons and has a deep study of military strategies. It was the high priest who was in charge of the punishment.

Elder Feng couldn't help but say, "Great King, you can't favor Lan Yi just because she is a princess. It must be known that now the crusade of the whole clan is overshadowed day by day, if you can't give an explanation to the clansmen, I am afraid that it will have a great impact on the king's power in the future. ”

"What do you mean by Elder Feng? Why don't you want to think that this king believes in you with all his heart and hands over the defense and safety of his clan, but what about you that day? If you want to be held accountable, you are most responsible. ”

Elder Feng's heart was weak, and he didn't dare to speak for a while.

Elder Shui coughed lightly, swayed his fat body, stepped forward and said with a pleasant face: "Don't be angry, the king. According to the old student's opinion, it is understandable that the king wants to keep the princess. It's just that in this war, the Terrans suffered a lot of damage, even if they all retreated in the end. But compared to the loss of our people, it is much slighter. Therefore, Lao Sheng felt that what Elder Feng said was not unreasonable, after all, it was a fact that the clan was complaining now, and if the king couldn't come up with anything to calm down, I am afraid that it would be difficult to establish prestige in the clan in the future. ”

Elder Huo immediately stepped forward and echoed, "What Elder Shui said is very true, and I hope that the king will think twice before acting. ”

The demon king put his hand on the armrest of the throne, subconsciously tightened, let go, and stood up. He swept down with a deep sweep, and there was an extra silver cone in his hand. It's the one that was pulled out for the blue coat. In a situation that everyone did not expect, he stabbed hard into his chest, and the corners of his lips hooked up a wicked smile, and said, "Do you think this is enough?!!

"Your Majesty!" exclaimed the crowd.

The blue coat is stunned. never imagined that he silently sacrificed so much for himself. He Yu was in a hurry, but he couldn't get close to the other party even half a step by all means.

The demon king's smile did not change, and said: "Lan Yi is the princess of this king, the wife who has not passed the door. Of course, she is at fault, but this king cannot escape the blame. If you have to be held accountable, let the king bear all of them. You don't have to say anything more. But if you don't think it's enough, this king can come again. As he spoke, he gritted his teeth and pulled out the silver cone.

Seeing that the demon king was holding a silver cone, he was about to stab into his chest again, and said in horror, "Don't." However, the other party could not hear at all.

"No need. King, let the old man come!"

As the four elders got out of the way, an old man with white hair and a powerful old man walked in.

"Grandma. Blue Yi was stunned and covered his mouth. I can't imagine what will happen next.

The people said, "High Priest." ”

The high priest nodded slightly at everyone, bent his waist and saluted the demon king: "Great king, the old man is guilty, the old man is ashamed to be the high priest, and the disciples have no way. So that she was deceived by others, unconscious, ignorant and ignorant, which was a dereliction of duty on the part of the old student. ”

The High Priest was serious. Hurry up, please. The Demon King covered his wounds, sat back on his throne, and motioned for her to get up.

The high priest did not get up, and continued: "So the old student has a request, and I hope that the king will fulfill it. ”

Every generation of kings in the clan has always had great respect for and reliance on the high priests. The Demon King was no exception, though he didn't trust her entirely.

The demon king had to take care of it more and said: "If the high priest has any requirements, you can tell me and listen to it, there is no need to salute, let's hurry up." ”

After all, the high priest has served for many years, and he knows that the king he serves is probably temperamental, and he can't get an inch. She got up and said, "Old Sheng knows that Lan Yi's sin this time is unforgivable. Even if the king intends to protect her, there is a place where he can't help himself. Now there are many complaints among the people, and the people are uneasy. If the king can't give them a satisfactory explanation, not only will the king lose the hearts of the people, but even the entire demon clan will suffer a great chaos. ”

The high priest paused for a moment, and made up his mind: "Therefore, Lao Sheng asked the king to allow Lao Sheng to exchange his life for one life, and give an explanation to the clansmen instead of Lan Yi." ”

"How can this be?" said the Demon King.

"Yes, High Priest, as the High Priest of the Demon Clan, the clan will still rely on you in the future, how can you give her life. There was a lot of talk below. I don't know who said that.

The blue clothes were in the distance, and in order to avoid crying, they had to cover their mouths tightly and let their tears wet their hands. Didn't they all say that Grandma was forced to take the blame for her when she died? For this reason, Lan Yi resented the demon king for many years.

The high priest did not bend down, but chose to kneel on the ground.

"How the high priest makes. The demon king stood up excitedly, touched the wound, and frowned slightly.

In the early years, in order to express gratitude for the hard work of each high priest and the lifelong loyalty of not marrying, and dedicating his life to the whole clan, even if he met the king, he also reluctantly bowed down. Including the blue clothes, if it weren't for the fact that the demon king had reached marriageable age, he would have been pushing back and not wanting to get married. The old man in the clan was afraid that he would cut off the emperor's heir, so he boasted about Haikou, and said that as long as the demon king took a fancy to it, the women of the whole clan would marry at will. The demon king will not have a chance to take advantage of the loophole and ask for the blue clothes.

It's just that now that the high priest is performing this great ceremony, the demon king is really in a dilemma.

The high priest said earnestly, "My lord, please let the old man be selfish for a while." Lao Sheng understands that as a high priest, he is responsible for punishment, and he should not have the slightest favoritism. But Lao Sheng is also an ordinary clansman, in addition to the identity of the high priest, he is still a grandmother in blue. Lao Sheng has already lost a granddaughter, and he can't bear to lose another one. Pray for the king's fulfillment. "Anyway, she can't afford to crawl.

"High Priest. Everyone sighed.

"Pray for the king's fulfillment. The high priest repeated with a powerful voice.

The demon king is in a dilemma. Promise no, don't agree and can't find any reason to refute the other party. What's more, in his heart, he couldn't find a better way to excuse Blue Yi.

"No, don't. Blue Yi couldn't cry. How many times her grandmother was indifferent to her, how many times she blamed herself, why it wasn't herself who died in the first place. She thought that grandma must have hated her, why did grandma intercede for her... Even at the cost of a life for a life.

It turned out that grandma had always had her granddaughter in her heart.

The blue clothes desperately beat the invisible and untouchable transparent prohibition in front of him with both hands, and he was so anxious that he was about to collapse.

He Yu couldn't help but grab her and persuaded: "Blue Yi, Blue Yi, you don't want to be like this, it's just one of the big brother's dreams, even if you can pass it now, it will be useless." It's all in the past. You are sober and sober. ”

Lan Yi turned his head in a daze, and said with a foolish smile: "Is it all in the past? Second Highness, you are joking! You see, my grandmother is obviously there." As she spoke, she held out her hand and pointed.

He Yu then saw the following scene.

The high priest waited for a long time and was silent, and then immediately said, "Don't hesitate, great king. Since the death of the Demon Emperor, our clan has suffered a heavy blow, and after a long time, it has finally recovered. I don't want to, now I have been attacked by the Terrans again, and I have suffered too many casualties. The morale of the whole clan is low, the will is depressed, and it is very necessary to be like a warrior like the king, to set an example for everyone, to establish prestige and bring confidence to everyone. ”

The high priest raised his head and said, "My lord, don't bother with such trivial matters as my grandfather and grandson. Lao Sheng was about to return to the dust, but Lan Yi was still very young, and her life had just begun. In exchange for blue clothes, the old students are willing. It's also a very cost-effective thing. When the time comes, as long as the king puts all the blame on Lao Sheng, presumably the people will not be suspicious, and they will be convinced. If so, the king is afraid that there will still be criticism among the clan, and it is not impossible to remove the identity of the blue-clothed saint and be demoted to a maid. ”

The demon king's heart moved deeply. I don't want the high priest to sacrifice his life like this. Even when he died, he also sought a way out for him for the blue clothes. Seeing the high priest's fearless gaze and death-defying expression, the demon king was in awe of her. Half ringing, closed his eyes, and said, "Okay." This king promises you. ”

When everyone saw this, they were all grieved and powerless.

"Old student, thank you, the king. The high priest thanked him heartily and prostrated himself. She used to be energetic and majestic, but she seemed to be several times older all of a sudden. She dragged her old body to her feet slowly. Elder Fire immediately lifted her up with his close proximity. The High Priest gave her a grateful look. Once she was settled, she took off the crown of feathers from her head and handed it to the nearest Fire Elder.

The high priest finally did not forget to say: "I hope that the king will see that Lao Sheng has prophesied for the horoscopes of the demon clan and worked hard all her life, and promised Lao Sheng that he will definitely spare her life." ”

"High priest, rest assured, this king promises you that as long as this king is in the day, he will protect her well. The Demon King swore an oath.

The High Priest smiled slightly. clicked a few times in front of him without hesitation, his power was exhausted, and the corners of his mouth were bleeding. In fact, she could have turned into nothing and chose to return to the earth. The reason why the body was left was just to keep it for the clansmen to show and give an explanation.

Lan Yi watched her grandmother fall to the ground in a daze, even dying, with a satisfied smile on the corner of her mouth. She couldn't take it anymore and fainted.
