Chapter 1963: Chapter 187: The Demon Emperor Gains a Princess! Riches in Peril_4
Only the Third Prince, Shentu Jingming, appeared unbothered and indifferent to praise or criticism, adopting a stance much like "Let him be strong, let him be strong; a breeze brushes the hill. Let him be fierce, let him be fierce; an iron chain blocks the big river."
Su Yun’s great victory, what does it have to do with him~
This shameless attitude naturally provoked the Demon Emperor’s anger, which escalated rapidly: "Old Third, can’t you have some shame? At least give this Emperor a statement! People are asking what our three princes are doing!"
"Old Ancestor." Shentu Jingming responded indifferently, "Let them say whatever they want. It won’t make me lose a piece of flesh. Besides, that Su Yun Princess is indeed formidable. I can’t match that feat, nor am I a match for her."
What he said was indeed the truth. Because the facts were just like that.
Yet it was exactly because it was the truth that made the Demon Emperor more upset.
He grew increasingly furious, turned, and lifted the Demon Emperor’s throne, ready to smash the little rascal Shentu Jingming.
Luckily, the Eunuch quickly intervened and stopped him: "Your Majesty, you know very well that the Third Prince has always been this reckless. Don’t take it seriously, anger is bad for your health, Your Majesty~"
"Old Ancestor, if it really doesn’t work out, why don’t I discuss with Ruobing to team up and try the outer battlefield?" The Third Prince suggested, shrinking his neck, "I think Ruobing is pretty smart, maybe we can win a battle."
The Demon Emperor had calmed down a bit, but upon hearing this, his anger flared up again, and he roared furiously: "You shameless dog! You haven’t even made any progress with Wang Ruobing and you’re already planning to mooch off her? How could this Emperor raise such a shameless wretch?!"
The First Prince and Second Prince looked down and dared not speak, but inwardly they sneered.
The Old Third is indeed still reckless, even at a time like this, he dares to provoke the Old Ancestor?
Now, it seems he will fall out of favor.
But unexpectedly.
After yelling, the Demon Emperor miraculously calmed down, coldly said: "Fine, go find Ruobing later. Let’s discuss how we can achieve a great feat and suppress Su Yun’s arrogance."
This actually works?
The First Prince and Second Prince were dumbfounded.
Old Ancestor, didn’t you just say that mooching is completely shameless?
"Not going. If you want to find her, do it yourself." The Third Prince turned his head, even showing arrogance, "This Prince has decided to retrieve his shame and won’t mooch off others anymore."
"You damn dog..."
The Demon Emperor was so angry he wanted to smash something again, but only got halfway through his sentence.
Suddenly.
There was an unusual disturbance in the sky outside the Demonic Hall.
"Buzz~~!"
A deep buzzing sound echoed throughout the heavens and earth.
Blazing red light exploded in the distance.
In an instant, the crimson glow swept across half of the sky, "burning" the clouds in the sky to crimson red.
The fire spread, like a lotus blooming, but also seemed like karma flames, exuding an atrocious and suffocating power.
Such a bizarre change immediately captured everyone’s attention.
"This is..." The Demon Emperor was initially confused, then suddenly recalled something, "Karma fire filling the sky, red lotus descending... This is the heavenly phenomenon caused by the Absolute Red Lotus Bloodline of our Shentu line inducing Heaven and Earth Laws upon birth!"
"Quick, check which children of our Shentu clan were born today and see whose child caused the heavenly anomaly."
Only some offspring of particularly strong bloodlines can trigger heavenly phenomena upon birth. In other words, children who can cause such phenomena at birth are not simple.
The Eunuch quickly left to investigate.
Before long, he returned, beaming with joy: "Great news, great news~ Your Majesty, it’s the Direct Line daughter of the Liexia Wang Fu who caused the heavenly anomaly upon her birth."
"It’s a daughter?"
The Demon Emperor’s expression remained unchanged, but there was a fleeting disappointment in his eyes.
Although the True Demon Sutra of their Shentu clan didn’t pick gender, being of fire attribute, it was generally more suited for males to cultivate. Historically, except for that one exception, all Demon Emperors were males.
Even he personally preferred choosing a Prince for succession.
However, upon reconsidering, he suddenly showed delight: "Hahaha~ A daughter is good, a daughter is good~! Send a decree to Liexia Wang Fu to prepare for my visit. Tell them if the child’s bloodline is qualified, this Emperor will immediately confer her as ’Princess.’
The ’Princess’ title in the Demonic Dynasty is not casually conferred. Conferring ’Princess’ means she also has the right to contend for the Demon Emperor title.
However, the Demon Emperor’s happiness obviously wasn’t solely because of a new heir.
Just now, when he thought of the four words ’Demonic Dynasty Princess’, Wang Fugui’s image suddenly appeared in his mind.
Immortal Dynasty can win over Wang Fugui, isn’t it because Immortal Dynasty has a princess?
And now, the Demonic Dynasty also has a princess.
Although Wang Fugui is the Princess Mansion Head of Yun Mengyu’s Princess Mansion, isn’t it true they haven’t married yet? Wang Fugui is currently only fifteen or sixteen years old, and even two or three decades later, he would still only be thirty or forty, still very young. Who can predict the future?
If our little princess can win over Wang Fugui, then Wang Fugui would have to call him "Old Ancestor" in the future?
