Prime Minister Cao's proud expression turned into shock. He was about to refuse, but Wu Shihuan didn't give him the chance at all: "Father, the adults in the valley said that they are old friends with Emperor Yang Ao!"
As soon as these words come out, there will definitely be two states in the demon clan's court: shock and silence!
At this moment they chose to be quiet.
The silence more than the shock showed how huge the weight of the Tenth Prince's words was.
The demon emperor above also sat in a crooked posture, straightened his attitude, and looked solemnly. Whenever the demon clan hears the title Yang Ao Emperor, no demon dares to be disrespectful!
Prime Minister Cao looked even more surprised and delighted. Is this tenth prince really stupid?
In which human world will the human race who are old friends with Emperor Yang Ao appear?
This is impossible!
Prime Minister Cao didn't believe it, and it was impossible to believe it. None of the demonic officials in the court believed Wu Shihuan's words.
Even the demon emperor above also chose not to believe it.
They were silent for a brief moment because they felt that the tenth prince's words were a bit ridiculous.
...
Prime Minister Cao sneered and said: "Your Highness, Tenth Prince, don't say it's a joke. You said that you regard the other person as an adult in the human world because he is strong. We can all understand. In order to save your life, don't call the human race an adult, even if it is a subordinate. There’s nothing wrong with kneeling.”
Wu Shihuan knew that these people would not believe his words, so he asked the two younger brothers who were kneeling on the ground behind him: "Zuo and You, tell me, what is the strength of that adult!"
"Strength is indescribable, unfathomable, and reaches the heavens and the earth!" Zuo replied in a very competent manner.
"Indescribable strength? In the early years of my campaign against the human race, there was no one with indescribable cultivation! It is impossible for such a person to exist in that human race! His Highness's men will naturally listen to you, even if you ask them to say goodbye. Even if dad is dead, they won’t refuse, right?”
At this time, a rough voice came from outside the palace, and Wu Shihuan's eyes flashed with greater vigilance. The person coming was the supreme commander of Wu Kingdom: Meng Zhenguan!
The Meng family has assisted the Wu Kingdom for three hundred generations. It can be said that they are super important ministers. Even the Demon Emperor has to give him three points of support.
It was with the help of Meng Zhenguan that Demon Emperor Wu Canguang seized the throne among the other princes.
Meng Zhen Guan is three meters tall, and his majestic body has the texture of cast copper. Unlike other demon clans, Meng Zhen Guan has the large horns on his head that curve to his cheeks, adding a bit of a unique sense of domineering to him.
Meng Zhenguan walked straight up, stared at Wu Shihuan from a high position and said calmly: "Your Highness, when you go to the land of the human race this time, not only the whole Wu Kingdom is watching, but also the royal families of many countries are watching. The prince of the Wu Kingdom is going to the human race." Land, he returned quickly without any gain, and even recognized the human race as his master, which inevitably disappoints His Majesty and makes other countries laugh at him."
Wu Shihuan knew that he was coming back today, and these old guys in the court were all ready to cause trouble for him. Whether it was Prime Minister Cao or Meng Zhenguan, they all supported the fourth prince.
He went to the human race and came back within a day, and gained nothing. He also recognized the human race as an adult. This matter was not conducive to Wu Shihuan from any aspect.
Facing these accusations and questioning voices, Wu Shihuan felt a little lonely and powerless at this moment.
The demon emperor above had a good impression of Wu Shihuan. In fact, Wu Shihuan came back from the human race with nothing, which is nothing. When encountering danger, it is common sense to deal with it carefully.
But it is simply ridiculous to say from his mouth: Emperor Yang Ao and that human race are old friends!
Wu Canguang had a sullen face, trying not to let himself get angry. He looked at Wu Shihuan and said, "Huan'er, go down and go to the wall of our clan's forbidden area by yourself. You are not allowed to leave without my permission!"
"Father, everything the child said is true. If you don't believe it, you can send Prime Minister Cao or Marshal Meng to find out the truth!" Before Wu Shihuan left, he thought that since he didn't believe him, then he would send these old men to him. Bideng was all dragged into the deep valley.
The adult has a good temper, but the monsters around him are not good-tempered. Moreover, the adult has told himself not to go to the human race. If these two elders really go there, it will definitely be bad.
Wu Canguang couldn't bear it anymore and shouted: "Get out! Get off!"
Wu Shihuan's face was calm: "My son, please leave me. Father, please calm down."
After saying that, he took his two younger brothers and left the court.
...
After Wu Shihuan had gone far away, Prime Minister Cao said, "Your Majesty, in my opinion, has the tenth prince been brainwashed by the strong men of the human race?"
Meng Zhenguan also said later: "It looks like it to me. There is a strange power fluctuation on it. I just searched and found that I couldn't see through it."
"His Royal Highness, the Tenth Prince, is as talented as the Fourth Prince among the princes. He has already reached the early stage of the Demon Infant Realm. Among humans, the Immortal Ascension Realm may be able to kill His Highness Tenth Prince, but he is not able to control His Highness's heart and soul. He must be one of the human beings. The two peak realms: True God and Immortality! Only these two realms can have a chance of controlling His Highness’s heart and soul!”
Prime Minister Cao looked deeply at Meng Zhenguan, and then echoed: "Your Majesty, what Marshal Meng said is absolutely true. It is very possible that these Tenth Highnesses are controlled by strong men from the human race. Maybe the conversation we just had has already That human is eavesdropping!"
"I second the proposal to strictly confine His Royal Highness! And the souls of his guards will be tested!"
Meng Zhenguan: "The general also agrees with Prime Minister Cao's point of view. This group of humans is very cunning. After discovering His Highness Tenth, not only did they not get rid of him, they actually let him back. Your Majesty, this matter is very serious! It even concerns me. National security is in danger!”
Wu Canguang frowned after hearing this. This soul search was very damaging to the foundation. If it doesn't work well, it will directly become a disability.
When Meng Zhenguan saw that the Demon Emperor was silent, he said again: "Your Majesty, we have been preparing for a hundred years to attack the human race. The last time we went to war with the human race, all other countries went there, but our country, Wu, did not participate in the war and missed out on the plunder of many resources. This time, we can’t miss the opportunity!”
"This attack on the human race, because His Highness Tenth Highness was eager to take credit, returned in vain, and even disturbed the morale of our army. Your Majesty must strictly investigate His Highness Tenth Highness and the two guards around him."
"Besides, your Majesty's cultivation has reached a bottleneck, and the demon race has no resources to utilize. Only the flesh, blood and resources of the human race can help your majesty return to the top!"
Only Meng Zhenguan dared to say this sentence in the whole court. On the surface, it was telling the Demon King that only by attacking the human race can he break through the cultivation level. In fact, it was also telling: Your Majesty, your time is running out and you can’t wait much longer!
Wu Canguang looked down with a serious look on his face. The old injuries from back then had almost exhausted his lifespan. He relied on spiritual plant elixirs to stay alive every day, treating the symptoms but not the root cause. Now the only way to save his life is to break through the realm!
Of course, how could Wu Canguang not understand the truth behind today's situation of verbally attacking the ten princes in court? Apart from 10% remaining neutral, 90% of the civil and military officials of the dynasty were still neutral. Prince.
When the tenth prince made a mistake, this group of people seized the opportunity to attack him and attacked him in groups.
But the Wu Kingdom's plan to send troops to the human race has indeed been suppressed by the tenth prince today. This is not a small crime.
Wu Canguang sighed inwardly: "Huan'er, why are you so careless? My father can protect you now."
Since ancient times, anyone who undermines military morale before the demon clan goes out on an expedition, regardless of whether they are princes or nobles, has been punished with serious crimes. Moreover, the tenth prince, who was leading the battle, was stared at by countless eyes.
Wu Canguang's eyes were deep, and he looked at a general on the left and said: "Gong Yuan, go and search for the souls of the two guards beside Jiang Huan'er! Investigate this matter thoroughly!"
"In addition, send people to the human race!"
Prime Minister Cao volunteered at this time: "Your Majesty, I am willing to go to the human race in person. I would like to see what kind of strength the people in the Ghost Immortal Valley can control His Highness!"
"allow!"
No one in the whole court thought there was anything wrong with Prime Minister Cao's invitation. Everyone thought it was normal because they didn't believe what the tenth prince said.
"Your Majesty, the fourth prince said a few days ago that he wanted to go to the human race and make meritorious service to the country. Can the fourth prince go with him?" Prime Minister Cao was trying to help the fourth prince with his military exploits. At this time, the tenth prince was already in a weak position, so it was very suitable for the fourth prince to step forward directly.
Wu Canguang said without any hesitation: "Accurate!"
...
On the way back from the court, Prime Minister Cao and Meng Zhenguan walked side by side.
Prime Minister Cao smiled at this time and said: "The combat power is still indescribable, but I want to see how indescribable it is!"
Meng Zhenguan said: "The junior is the junior. Without the protection of the elders, if you walk out of this stable palace, you will come back in disgrace. Prime Minister Cao, you must take good care of these four highnesses. If the situation is not right, retreat immediately."
Prime Minister Cao smiled confidently and said: "Marshal Meng, just keep your heart in your stomach. When the truth comes out, there are only a handful of humans who can fight me."
"This battle achievement was easily won by me and the Fourth Highness. That kid was still too young after all. We made a little effort and let him fall into a deep valley. Apart from his talent, he has nothing. This throne can only belong to the Fourth Prince. Your Highness."
