Chapter 262 Perfect Calculation
Just as Lan Yue was about to enjoy some more gossip, Jiang the Demon King on the other side suddenly foamed at the mouth in anger and fainted instantly.
The incident happened very suddenly, and the surrounding demon kings did not react in time. When they heard the commotion, they found that Jiang Demon King's demon wife had climbed up to his side at some point and was crying miserably.
"Old Jiang, what's wrong with you? Are you going to die? No! How can you bear to leave me and more than a hundred children behind!" This female demon was quite patient. She clearly heard the gossip from the other side of the story, but she pretended that nothing had happened, even though her voice was almost hoarse from shouting.
The surrounding demons looked at each other, clearly unable to understand the situation before them, nor could they comprehend the actions of their demon wife.
Those demon kings were actually happy to see Jiang the Demon King make a fool of himself and didn't care about his situation at all. After all, if Jiang the Demon King died, they could still place themselves in the Demon King's Palace.
Given that Jiang the Demon King's younger brother is so unruly and incompetent, unable to even defeat an ordinary demon general, how could he possibly hold onto the Demon King's position? In the end, the Demon King's throne will still belong to them!
Just as these demon kings were pondering who should replace them, the Sixth Prince suddenly swung out his black and gold longsword, which flew out and landed firmly between Jiang Demon King and the female demon.
All the demons heard a crisp sound, and upon closer inspection, they discovered a long, black and red needle that had been deflected by the longsword, then bounced off and embedded itself in the wall of the Demon King's Palace.
Immediately afterwards, the wall of the Demon King's Palace collapsed with a roar, and the place where the black and red needles were nailed was slowly corroded, revealing a huge hole.
Seeing this terrifying scene, many demon kings felt a chill run down their spines, as if the long needle was about to rush towards them at any moment.
The chubby demon king in the dark purple robe swallowed hard. He looked at the female demon with some fear, but felt incredibly lucky: "Luckily, I haven't married or had a demon wife all these years, otherwise, wouldn't I have been pierced in the head by this soul-fixing needle?"
The more the ancient demon king thought about it, the more terrifying it became.
He had never paid any attention to the female demons before, especially the Demon King's harem.
But if you think about it carefully, there was a time when a demon king was killed by his concubines in the harem and replaced for a hundred years.
Not long ago, Luo Mowang's concubines openly cheated on him. Who knows if they will join forces to deal with Luo Mowang in the future?
Now he has witnessed Jiang the Demon King being assassinated by his own demon wife! That was such a long, top-grade soul needle! Soul needles of this quality can only be forged in some special secret realms. As for the kind of soul needle that can assassinate a demon king, it takes hundreds of years to forge.
It has to be said that this demon wife is really persistent. She has been watching Jiang the Demon King for so long, just to take his life!
At this moment, the ancient demon king suddenly developed a fear of marriage. He felt that he was no better than the demon king, and often secretly devoured weak female demons and threw them into the abyss.
What if these female demons have surviving family members, or have special abilities to be reborn? Wouldn't he be in danger?
The ancient demon king trembled with fear, vowing to become a demon without desires from now on!
It's nothing, he just loves cultivating! He doesn't like female demons at all!
Jiang, who was already half-conscious, was unaware of the harm his deeds had caused to the other demon kings.
Although he was foaming at the mouth, he was not completely unconscious and was still conscious. He just couldn't control his body and could only feel a cold, poisonous gas spreading through his body.
When the soul needle flew over, Jiang the Demon King sensed it instantly. He used almost all his strength and exhausted all his mental energy, but he could only slow down the speed of the soul needle and had no way to stop it.
Jiang the Demon King's eyes were bloodshot, but he had no strength left and could not use any magic. He could only stare at his demon wife with bloodshot eyes.
At that moment, a long sword flew over and pierced straight into the bluestone bricks of the Demon King's Palace, firmly blocking the soul needle.
Jiang the Demon King was very familiar with this longsword; it was something his half-demon son had found in his private treasury when he became the Sixth Prince.
When he gave it away, the Demon King was very reluctant to part with it. After all, this demon sword was left to him by his father and had been tempered for thousands of years. Even he didn't know what level it could reach in the future.
But Luan Feng is still his son after all. It's one thing to ignore him normally, but now that he's in such an important position, he has to offer something good to win him over in order to solidify his power in the Demon King's Palace.
Otherwise, if his son were to become the Sixth Prince and then ignore him, wouldn't he be ridiculed by the other demon kings?
After giving away the demon sword, Jiang the Demon King felt a pang of regret for a while, but he never expected that at this crucial moment, it would be this very demon sword that saved his life.
At this moment, he was incredibly excited, feeling that he still had a son, and that his son still cared about him!
The sons born to the Demon Wife are all her younger brother's, but the Sixth Prince is different! Luan Feng's mother was a prodigy of the human race, and was even hailed as the hope of the cultivation world.
He witnessed the birth of this half-demon son with his own eyes, so this must be his only son!
Jiang the Demon King made a hoarse sound as he desperately mobilized his demonic power to fight against the cold, poisonous gas. After circulating it for a long time, he finally managed to temporarily control the poisonous gas.
Immediately afterward, his eyes hardened, and he jumped up from the ground, grabbed the demon wife opposite him with one hand, and snapped her neck in front of her incredulous eyes. Then he took back all the secret realm keys and spatial rings that he had given her.
He originally wanted to teach the two twin demon generals next to him a lesson, but the stubborn poison in his body seemed to be boiling again, so he had no choice but to swallow the blood in his mouth and leave the scene with Luan Feng.
This left many demons around feeling very disappointed, as they felt they could no longer watch the drama unfold.
However, having received so much information, they were still very pleased with the outcome. They all smiled and looked in the direction of Jiang the Demon King, especially Luo the Demon King, who was gloating and even slapping his thigh with joy.
Luo Mowang always felt that he was very miserable, after all, his son had cheated on him so many times, which was very rare even in the demon realm.
But unexpectedly, things got even worse for Jiang the Demon King. More than a hundred sons were not his own, and his demon wife, with whom he had lived for a thousand years, was about to assassinate him on the spot.
He almost died laughing. Demon King Luo felt that everything was preordained. Demon King Jiang had been laughing the loudest before, and now it was finally his turn to laugh at the other party!
Jiang the Demon King, who was carrying his son into the air, was so angry that he vomited blood again. However, he knew that he could not show any fear at this time. He could only swallow the blood back and, ignoring the two boiling forces in his body, speed up and returned to his palace.
Luan Feng remained silent throughout, seemingly having discerned something, allowing the demon king in front of him to carry him.
The little black ball of fur, Lan Yue, was secretly talking to him using telepathy.
"Didn't you say your dad was the demon you hated the most? Why did you save him just now?"
Lan Yue was very curious. She felt that according to the Sixth Prince's thinking, he should wish that old guy would die without a burial place. How could he suddenly have a kind heart?
The Sixth Prince, who had been brought back to his bedchamber, pinched the little dumpling and said in a mysterious voice, "This old guy can't die yet. If he dies now, everything will benefit the twins and that female demon, and all the schemes we set up before will be wasted."
Lan Yue suddenly realized something. She recalled the scene of sweeping through that secret realm before, and suddenly understood.
"But can the old Demon King trust you? After all, the Demon King of the Demon Realm is very powerful and can find some clues."
Lan Yue didn't think that the Demon King wouldn't have noticed them just because they had erased their presence.
The Sixth Prince smiled again, unconcerned: "Little Black, do you think the old man now believes me or that female demon?"
"Even if he saw me enter the secret realm with his own eyes, he will still blame it all on that female demon."
The little black ball blinked, thinking that the Sixth Prince in front of it was truly a master strategist.
Could it be that when he made his move, he had already anticipated that Jiang the Demon King would foam at the mouth on the spot?
Regardless, they're all incredibly impressive!
Lan Yue was full of admiration. She thought that with such a clever mind by her side, what did it matter if it was the Demon King's Palace? It could definitely stir up this mess!
She wants to make the Demon King's Palace too busy to deal with its own problems, so that they will have the energy to deal with the cultivation world.
But what's with this nickname "Little Black"? When was her name downgraded?
Lan Yue almost jumped up.
