Behind the Great Wilderness Dynasty No. 164

  Just as Zifeng and Xiaomei were together, the imperial family of the Dahuang Dynasty welcomed two big shots. Even Emperor Zhao Hongyi was careful not to be slow in his treatment of them.

  Even Emperor Shao Fengyun of the Tian Dynasty would be shocked if he saw this scene, because Zhao Hong was usually extremely majestic and had never seen him being so careful in "serving" others.

  In the study, a man and a woman sat in the main seat, while Zhao Hong stood beside them with his body slightly bent and an attitude of respect, which was completely the posture he used to use when treating his former subordinates.

  "Zhao Hong, how long has your clan been staying among humans?" The speaker was a man with sword-like eyebrows and starry eyes, whose elegant demeanor immediately revealed his extraordinary origin.

  Next to him sat a woman with a slender figure, an absolutely beautiful and charming appearance that caught people's eyes, like a fairy who had just walked out of a painting.

  If Chi Feng were here, he would discover that the man was actually his old rival Ye Kuang, and the elegant woman beside him was Ye Mei.

  "Back to our prince, our tribe has been stuck in this human world for 50,000 years." Zhao Hong replied cautiously.

  "Five thousand years!" Ye Kuang laughed and didn't say anything, while Ye Mei stood up beside him, rebuking: "In such a long time, you've only established such a small dynasty. Have you forgotten your mission?"

  "Princess, calm down, princess, calm down." Zhao Hong's expression changed in an instant, and he immediately cupped his hands, while Ye Mei saw him like this, her eyes narrowed, just about to say something but was interrupted by Ye Kuang, who let out a cold snort and sat back down.

  "Speak straight!" Ye Feng waved his hand and said.

  "Thank you, Prince." Zhao Hong straightened up again and said, "The prince doesn't know that the relationships between the various forces of the human race are complex and interconnected. One move can affect the entire situation. Moreover, behind every dynasty is a powerful human cultivator who sits in power. It's really difficult to develop our strength without being suspected. We've done our best."

  "Are you saying I wronged you?" Night Charm's face fell.

  "The princess misunderstood, I didn't mean that. I just wanted to illustrate our current situation." Zhao Hong immediately shook his head in denial.

  "In thirty years, my demonic army will break the seal and descend upon the Wasteland Continent. At that time, humanity will be subjugated under our feet. You should be well aware of this." Ye Crazy said calmly.

  "Yes, I understand." Zhao Hong broke out in a cold sweat. Ye Kuang's words sounded like praise for the strength of their demon clan, but were actually a warning to him.

  For so many years as a king, he would never be inferior to others in terms of mind and strategy. Where did he not understand the meaning of Ye Can's words?

  However, he also had some discontent in his heart.

  After all, he had been the emperor for decades, and his ancestors had ruled supreme for generations. Normally, others would look up to him with respect, but now he had to nod and bow to two young whippersnappers, which made him feel unaccustomed and uncomfortable all over.

  "I heard that your son has a marriage arrangement with the princess of the Tian Shang Dynasty. Is this true?" Ye Kuang asked.

  "It's true, there's still a year before the engagement." Zhao Hong nodded and replied.

  "Very well." Ye Can nodded and said, "I want you to take advantage of this engagement, send troops to merge the Tian Shang Dynasty, and then lead a large army to occupy other dynasties, eliminating anyone who poses a threat to my demon clan, and weakening human power as much as possible.

  "This..." Zhao Hong was in a difficult position, although their clan's power was enough to swallow up the several major dynasties nearby, but if they were to launch a war on the day of the grand wedding, it would be truly unjustifiable.

  Moreover, if their actions are too loud, they will inevitably attract the attention of various major sects. If they are slightly careless, their clan will face a catastrophic disaster.

  "What, you're questioning my decision?" Ye Kuang coldly snorted.

  "No, Prince, you misunderstood me. I was just saying that since you're new here and don't understand the human situation, if we act rashly, it will..."

  "I don't care what the consequences are, now I'm just ordering you as the Demon King's son, got it?" Ye Kuang interrupted Zhao Hong's words without any courtesy, saying sternly.

  "Yes, I understand!" Ye Kuang had already said so, what else could he say?

  "Alright, you can go down now!" Ye Feng waved his hand and said.

  "Dismissed." Zhao Hong said and then backed out, closing the large gate behind him.

  "Big brother..."

  "Shh!" Ye Kuang interrupted Ye Mei's words, casually casting a restrictive spell that enveloped the entire room before nodding at Ye Mei and saying, "You can speak now."

  "Big brother, I think there's something wrong with Zhao Hong. Just now, I deliberately got angry, but he just bowed slightly and completely disrespected me," Ye Mei said.

  In the demon clan, the hierarchy is very strict. Lower demons must kneel when facing higher demons. If in the demon clan, Zhao Hong would have to kneel down in that situation, otherwise it would be considered a crime of lèse-majesté.

  "I know." The scene just now was seen by Ye Fan, otherwise he wouldn't have "reminded" him like that. "Their clan has lived among humans for 50,000 years, and they are probably being gradually assimilated into the human tribe. Their desire to serve the demon tribe is no longer as strong as it used to be. Moreover, as a leader of one side, they have tasted the pleasure of ruling the world, how could they continue to live under humans?"

  "What's going on?" As soon as assimilation was mentioned, Ye Mei furrowed her brow.

  She first thought of the disappearing gods, who were forcibly assimilated by humans, and now, the gods have become a thing of the past, lost in the long river of history.

  Then she thought of their demon tribe, who had interacted with other human tribes on the other four major roads for so many years. Although they were in a position of absolute dominance, they could not escape the nightmare of being assimilated by the human tribe, to the point where the strength of their demon tribe was now far inferior to what it once was.

  Otherwise, they wouldn't need Zhao Hong's branch of help at all, and with their own strength alone, they could sweep across the ancient continent.

  "I just made him do that thing for two purposes. First, it was to stir up the chaos in the Ancient Continent and provide an opportunity for our demonic invasion. Second, it was to test his loyalty to our demonic clan and see how much he still values us. If he disappoints me, then he will no longer have a reason to exist." As he spoke, Ye Can narrowed his eyes, a faint glow flickering in their depths.

  "It turns out that Brother already had a plan in mind, I was just blindly worried." Upon hearing Ye Kuang say this, Ye Mei's tense mood relaxed.

  Suddenly, Ye Mei's expression changed and she said: "Brother, do you think they will take the initiative to attack us and send an expert to get rid of us?"

  "This might not be impossible, but I hope he won't do that. I really don't want to kill my own people." Ye Kuang said calmly, but anyone could hear the helplessness hidden in his words.

  "I hope they don't act foolishly." Ye Mei also nodded, although they were strong, but with just the two of them, it wouldn't be too difficult to completely wipe them out.

  Ye Kuang didn't say a word and sat there lost in thought, Ye Mei also didn't disturb him and quietly sat down beside him to rest.
