Chapter 2155: Fury and Severe Punishment!
Inside the Demon Court.
A group of minor demons were running nonstop, shouting joyous words as they ran.
"The Demon Emperor has returned!"
"The Demon Emperor has rewards to bestow!"
"All demons, come forth to pay homage!"
……
This exuberant, jubilant clamor spread throughout the entire Demon Court, startling Ji Meng and Fei Lian, though they quickly regained their composure; Gui Che's face turned even more grim.
Shang Yang said: "Since it has already happened, we must now confess everything to the Demon Emperor. What to do next depends entirely on him."
"There is no other way."
Gui Che was also unwilling, for he had not yet finished sweeping his tail; so if they were to act now, they must first understand the situation, not just stand here talking.
He refused to let the matter be buried, but he would not bear this black mark unjustly.
At this moment, Shang Yang and Fei Dan understood Gui Che's meaning.
Ying Zhao asked: "The Demon Emperor still does not know about the Witch-Slaying Sword. If you do not confess voluntarily, when he finds out, he will punish you."
No one paid attention to Ying Zhao's words, for the Witch-Slaying Sword was originally meant to be forged by the demon race.
Ying Zhao speaking like this would naturally draw no support, and Dong Huang Taiyi and Di Jun might even be pleased by it, so none of them would become the first to speak out.
Ying Zhao stamped his foot and walked out.
He also wanted to speak, but he knew this was not the time—he could only hold his tongue.
The Witch-Slaying Sword has already devastated a large portion of the human race; if this continues, the human race will be wiped out—then can the Witch-Slaying Sword even be completed?
Originally, Ying Zhao had wanted to reason with them, but now he realized reason was useless.
Only this way could the demon race be stopped from forging it.
Ying Zhao hardened his heart!
Once Di Jun and Dong Huang Taiyi return, he will bring it up to them and let them figure out how to resolve it themselves.
Besides, Lu Ya Dao Ren has not returned to the Demon Court for a long time—how could they possibly manage it?
The Demon Court is leaderless!
If this continues, not only will they fail to retrieve the treasures from Penglai Immortal Island, they will also suffer severe losses—this blow strikes them hard.
Judging from Penglai Immortal Island's condition, they have already dismantled it completely.
Dong Huang Taiyi does not know of this matter, but perhaps the current situation is no different from what they claim—so many things have already happened, and they knew nothing.
Di Jun asked: "During my absence from the Demon Court, what has happened to the demon race?"
He stared sharply at the demons below, but not a single demon dared to answer.
This silence made not only Dong Huang Taiyi sense something was wrong, but Di Jun sensed it too.
"Speak!"
"If you do not tell the truth, and trouble arises within the demon race, I will be the first to use you as sacrifices!" Di Jun's voice was icy.
The Ten Great Demon Sages were deeply ashamed; Gui Che now had no choice but to step forward and take responsibility, for all this began with him—he must bear the blame.
Gui Che stood up straight, then knelt down straight, bowing his head to the ground before Di Jun and Dong Huang Taiyi.
Then he recounted all that had occurred during this time between the demon race, the witch race, and the entire Honghuang.
Since Gui Che had been unconscious during this period and knew nothing of what happened outside, Shang Yang and Fei Lian stood beside him to supplement his account.
