"Child, do you understand the meaning of the word elder?" Xu Lengcheng slightly noticed Tang Yan's excitement, and exchanged a meaningful look with Xu Pojun without any trace.
Xu Pojun said: "Taking the military perspective as an example, there are two generals who join the army at the same time. After a thousand years of fighting, they will face a choice. The general with higher martial arts talent can stay in the army, continue to fight, and continue to grow.
.The other general is better at military strategy. He can go to the Military Academy or stay in the army as a military staff officer.
The general who enters the Military Academy will be called an elder from now on. Unless he still has nostalgia for martial arts, most of his energy will be invested in military planning and military deployment, and a small amount of energy will be used to consolidate existing strength.
Therefore, the elders of each tribe are old monsters who have lived for many years. They no longer pursue strength, but focus on internal affairs of the tribe. They will be loyal to the continuation of the race beyond all else.
Sometimes they do things that are unethical or even unbelievable. This is common. It cannot be said that it is 100% correct. At least in their opinion, they think they have made the right decision.
You are still young now and cannot experience that kind of emotion and pressure. When you really stand at that height, you will naturally understand."
"Please continue." Tang Yan frowned. This statement obviously did not convince him. There must be other secrets within the Demon Spirit Clan.
Once it was just doubt, now it is certainty.
There must have been something extreme that stimulated those elders.
It must be some unknown crisis that affected those elders.
Tang Yan admitted that the 'trigger' incident mentioned by Xu Lengcheng was a crisis, and it was still a very serious crisis. It was enough for the Demon Spirit Clan to face severe tests and choices, but it was absolutely impossible for the elders of the clan to 'compromise'
, or even 'submit to weakness' and kill your own emperor!
Recalling Xu Lengcheng's previous explanation, the Demon Spirit Tribe is a race that is not afraid of challenges, and it is also a race that is good at fighting. Even if they give it a try, or... secretly seal away Prince Cang!
Anyway, the news that Prince Cang became the emperor is very secret. You can let him make a secret killing move. This is the best choice. Why do you have to kill the Demon Spirit Emperor and assist Prince Cang?!
Thinking about it again, since my father is so powerful and a great man, he should use the strength of his entire family to go crazy while leaving a backup plan. It is impossible for him not to realize the consequences of his failure.
Xu Lengcheng noticed that Tang Yan's brows were furrowed and he was not convinced by his words. He remained silent for a while before explaining: "I understand your suspicion, but the facts did happen and have been placed in history. The elders of the Demon Spirit Tribe chose
Prince Cang gave up the Demon Spirit Emperor.
If I insist on giving some more explanations, I can give two more.
First, the Demon Spirit Clan was tired of the continuous wars in the Demon Spirit Emperor's era, and the accumulated conflicts broke out in an extreme way at that specific period; second, Prince Cang's ambition caused trouble, and he convinced some elders, gradually infiltrated, and threatened*
Under the inducement, more elders were trapped."
Tang Yan responded silently and made no comments, but the second explanation...seemed...somewhat reasonable, and it was the only explanation that could withstand consideration, but...why did it always feel like something was wrong?
Xu Lengcheng added: "Prince Cang, with the protection and assistance of many elders, bypassed our Bone Clan, which was on good terms with the Demon Spirit Emperor, and secretly contacted the Spirit Clan and the Star Clan, and even contacted the Mo Qilin and the Blood Demon Clan.
Because the demon clan was extremely rampant during that time, the Demon Spirit Emperor had been stationed in Western Xinjiang all year round, and the elders in the clan were doing their best to provide cover. The Demon Spirit Emperor did not notice the abnormality, and probably did not expect such a thing to happen.
In this way, after a long agreement, a conspiracy was born.
About fifty years ago, a sudden drastic change occurred in the Evil Emperor's Way in the central restricted area. The Spirit Clan and the Star Clan encountered teams from the War Demon Clan. The Human Emperors of the two tribes personally sent a request for help to the Demon Spirit Emperor who was sitting in southern Xinjiang.
make.
Strangely enough, the Demon Spirit Emperor had no doubts and seemed to be very anxious. He assembled nearly a million legions and six slaves that day and headed south to the Evil Emperor's Road.
But when he got to the Evil Emperor's Way, he realized that he had been tricked!
It was not a life-and-death melee at all, but a rehearsed trap! It was a trap that Prince Cang had united with the two ancient clans and the demon clan for decades!
The battle that year was unprecedentedly cruel and loud, causing a sensation on Beidalu. The Demon Spirit Emperor was attacked from both sides and endured the all-out onslaught of the Star Human Emperor, Spirit Emperor, Blood Demon Emperor, and Mo Qilin. The Demon Spirit Emperor he commanded
Millions of elite soldiers of the tribe launched a rebellion instigated by Prince Cang's spies.
The whole scene was chaotic.
The fierce battle lasted for three days and three nights, from the Evil Emperor's Path to the Evil Ghost's Path, then to the Death God Stream, Tiandang Mountain, and finally back to the Evil Emperor's Path. The space where they were killed collapsed, and even entered the void for a time.
The Demon Spirit Emperor showed all his strength and intended to return to the ancient Demon Spirit Clan. However, faced with the desperate pursuit of powerful enemies from all directions and the gradually expanding internal rebellion, Prince Cang blocked the Demon Spirit Emperor's return path in southern Xinjiang.
Later, the six slaves were defeated one after another, three died in the mountains, two died in the divine stream, and one slave forcibly self-destructed after following the Demon Spirit Emperor back to the Evil Emperor's Way. The Demon Spirit Emperor was beheaded of three souls and two souls, and was suppressed to death in the Evil Emperor.
Imperial Way."
"The Demon Spirit Emperor...is he really dead?" Tang Yan asked tentatively.
"It's dead. The four emperors have joined forces and involved the three races of humans, monsters and demons. How can there be any room for it?"
Xu Pojun said: "You may feel that there is something fishy about the whole incident. Not only you, but everyone in the world feels that there is something fishy. Even the four emperors who were instigated by Prince Cang feel that there is something wrong. They are worried that it is the demon spirit emperor and Prince Cang.
trap.
But the Demon Spirit Emperor is dead, and the facts have been established and become history. All the strangeness and doubts have become the fun of boring people to relieve their boredom. You just rack your brains and stuff "conspiracy theories" and "human nature theories" into it.
It is impossible to rewrite history and bring the Demon Spirit Emperor back from the dead.
The Demon Spirit Emperor is really dead, and Prince Cang has taken control of the Demon Spirit Clan. This is the fact, and this is the 'consequence' created by all the 'antecedents'."
Xu Pojun repeatedly emphasized that he hoped to wake Tang Yan up and stop thinking meaninglessly.
So what if you come up with a reason?
So what?!
Tang Yan was thinking hard in his heart, but appeared calm on the surface: "I'm fine, you continue."
"The reason why the Star Human Emperor and the Spirit Emperor cooperated with Prince Cang, even joining forces with Mo Qilin and the Blood Demon Emperor, is because Prince Cang's promotion to the throne is completely in line with the interests of the human race.
First, Prince Cang’s strength is slightly lower and he will not be as ambitious as the Demon Spirit Emperor, so the various tribes will not feel threatened. Second, there is no need for all tribes to join forces to sanction, and there is no need to launch a large-scale battle, so the Demon Spirit tribe can be easily affected.
Third, the Demon Spirit Clan still has the Human Emperor in charge, so the strength of the entire clan will be affected but will not be significantly weakened.
Generally speaking, the demon spirit tribe controlled by Prince Cang can make all tribes feel safe. It can not only dominate the human race, but can also resist the demon tribe, killing two birds with one stone."
Xu Lengcheng also said: "The demon clan and the demon clan each had their own agenda, and they reluctantly agreed to Prince Cang's proposal, and also joined hands with the two human emperors to kill the demon spirit emperor. However, after the incident, the blood demon clan and the heavenly demon clan jointly
The Demon Emperor Taotie in the northwest wilderness and Mo Qilin in the Eastern Demon Region immediately gathered their armies and launched an unprecedented battle to destroy the Demon Spirit Clan in one fell swoop.
But the Demon Spirit Clan did not collapse as expected. The Star Clan and the Spirit Clan all gathered their armies. The Star Clan pushed into the Demon Spirit Clan's territory, and the Spirit Clan went south to the Demon Realm to threaten Mo Qilin.
During that period, the three tribes mobilized tens of millions of troops, affecting the seven top overlords, but in the end they did not start a fight and each of them stopped their troops and returned to their tribes."
"Why?" Tang Yan asked immediately, because he seemed to have grasped the key point.
The Blood Demon Clan and the Heavenly Demon Clan are both the strongest demon clans. Even if they are supported by the Star Clan and the Spirit Clan, so what? A turbulent Demon Spirit Clan is like a tiger that has drunk poison. Poke it with a few knives.
, it will definitely take half of its life, and let it completely fall into the root of the disease.
With the bloody nature of the Blood Demon Clan and the Heavenly Demon Clan, and the domineering power of Mo Qilin, they will not let go of the opportunity.
Unless... there is another reason.
"Do you think it's so easy to kill the Demon Spirit Emperor? The Demon Spirit Emperor once severely injured Mo Qilin on his own, how powerful he is. Even if the four emperors join forces to kill him, they will still have to use all their strength. The Demon Spirit Emperor is even less likely to do so.
He will sit back and wait for death, and it is even more terrifying to fight back before death.
The battle that year was very tragic, and the four emperors behaved normally afterward, but everyone could guess that the injuries were very serious, and no one knew how serious it was. But the tacit agreement to stop fighting at that moment made people realize
, it definitely hurt the muscles and bones and the foundation.
After that, Mo Qilin never personally invaded the Demon Spirit Clan again, and the Blood Demon Emperor never killed Prince Cang. The Star Clan and the Spirit Clan were very cautious in their activities."
Xu Yan suddenly said: "The Demon Spirit Emperor dethroned the four emperors at the cost of death?!"
When the words came out, he stopped forcibly, closed his mouth, swayed his eyes, and breathed slightly.
Tang Yan's face was so solemn that it looked like it could ooze water.
It seems like I'm holding on to something tightly, but... instead I feel even more confused...
Xu Lengcheng suddenly smiled slightly: "Master Tang, why do you care so much about the Demon Spirit Clan? Especially Prince Cang and...the Demon Spirit Emperor..."
