Glancing at the Old Demon General on the ground, the Old Demon King said: Boss, Third, Seventh, and Tenth, are these the four people you recommend?
Hearing this, the twelve earth demon generals immediately suppressed the cold light in their eyes, raised their heads and looked at the earth demon king, and said: Report to your majesty, yes!
Nodding, the Earth Demon King shouted to the outside of the hall and ordered the eldest prince, third prince, seventh prince, and tenth prince to enter the palace!
Immediately after finishing speaking, guards hurriedly left outside the palace, apparently to summon the four princes.
Seeing this situation, the twelve earth demon generals all breathed a sigh of relief, knowing that the next thing to do was to choose one of the four people to be the next earth demon king. For a time, the twelve people were divided into five queues, except for the
Except for the three Earth Demon Generals who had not spoken a word from beginning to end, the other nine people became hostile to each other.
On top of the ferocious beast pillar, Zhu Tianpeng's eyes flashed with a hint of contempt.
These nine Earth Demon Generals are really stupid. Do you really think that Earth Demon King is a fool?
When the nine people were fighting just now, Zhu Tianpeng clearly saw a cold light surging in the eyes of the Earth Demon King.
In other words, the Earth Demon King is not satisfied with these people's proposals, and may even have a clear goal of becoming a successor in his heart.
Therefore, by summoning the four princes this time, I am afraid that this earth demon king is trying to pave the way for the prince in his mind, and even wants to frighten the earth demon generals present so that they will not have any different intentions and rebel after his death.
Things.
At the same time, Zhu Tianpeng also became curious.
Among the thirteen sons of the Earth Demon King, except for the Earthly Enemy who was killed by him, the four princes Yi, Yan, Shuo, and Yao were the most outstanding, while the rest were mediocre in comparison.
Since the successors chosen by the Earth Demon King are not these four princes, then among those mediocre Earth Demon princes, who was chosen by the Earth Demon King?
Moreover, judging from the previous actions of the Demon Princess, the latter was determined to help her son Di Yan ascend to the throne, but she did not show any intention to target a certain prince, that is to say, to finalize the idea of the heir.
The Earth Demon King didn't even talk about his concubine.
Such a powerful Earth Demon King, able to keep secrets from everyone next to him. His protection for the heir can be said to be at its peak.
Feeling inwardly, Zhu Tianpeng also learned a lesson.
You can't do anything without any reservations, at least you have to keep a hand, and only you know this hand, as it can save lives at critical moments.
Thinking of this, Zhu Tianpeng couldn't help but have a flash of admiration in his eyes when he looked at the Demon King. Although the latter was the culprit who killed his father Zhu Gangqiang, being able to become the king of a clan does have something worth learning from.
Within a moment, the guards' calls came, breaking the silence of the hall: Prince Yi, Prince Yan, Prince Shuo, Prince Yao!
As the voice fell, four steady and powerful footsteps came from the door of the hall.
Zhu Tianpeng also turned around to see what these four most outstanding princes among the Earth Demon Clan looked like.
I saw four figures in black prince robes walking towards them. Each of them had a tall body of five feet, with a strong back and a strong waist. They showed their domineering power when they raised their feet and stepped forward.
While walking, the four of them were looking straight into the depths of the hall, but not even a fool could see the smell of gunpowder between them.
Especially after entering the main hall, the pace of the four people obviously accelerated, trying to throw away the other three people and arrive alone first.
Seeing this situation, Zhu Tianpeng's eyes flashed with a trace of ridicule, and he murmured in his heart: What a bunch of idiots!
Although I don’t know why the Earth Demon King gave up these four people, and I don’t know what’s so great about the Earth Demon Prince he chose.
But any monarch will inevitably have unusual emotions towards his heirs.
Just like the emperors in the world, what they want to see is not the quarreling heirs, but the harmonious scene of the heirs. This is a father's wish, especially now that the Earth Demon King is about to die, how can he see this?
A scene of brothers fighting each other.
Involuntarily, Zhu Tianpeng turned to look at the Earth Demon King. Sure enough, a trace of dissatisfaction flashed through the latter's eyes, and his face was a little livid, but it was difficult to see because of his serious injury.
Soon, the four demon princes came to the high platform, knelt on their knees, and said: I pay homage to my father!
Hearing this, the Earth Demon King waved his hands and said: "Everyone, get up. The generals recommend the four of you as the next kings of the Earth Demon Tribe. What do you think?"
As soon as these words came out, the four demon princes, who were already in a serious atmosphere, were like ignited explosives almost instantly, and their hostility towards the other three people was not concealed at all.
At this time, one of the Earth Demon Princes opened his mouth and said: Father, I am your elder and the elder brother of all your brothers. I should inherit this throne.
After saying that, Di Yi looked at the other three Demon Princes and said: Dear brothers, please don't fight with Brother Wei. Brother Wei promises that he will not do anything to any brother afterwards.
Hearing this, Zhu Tianpeng, who was on the beast pillar, shook his head and thought to himself: What a bastard. What you said is obviously telling others that fighting with you is courting death. You really are a devil and are a fool who can't hear it.
?
Sure enough, the face of the Earth Demon King also became extremely ugly when Di Yi finished speaking. After giving Di Yi a deep look, the Earth Demon King looked at the three Di Yan people with angry faces and said: For your elder brother.
If so, do you have anything to refute?
Hearing this, Diyan immediately stepped forward, bowed and said: Father, it is true that the eldest brother is the eldest son, but the eldest brother has been obsessed with women these years, and even escaped during the war ten years ago, causing three thousand Earth Demon soldiers to fight.
Damn Jiagu, based on this alone, the eldest brother cannot be the king because he is not worthy!
As soon as these words came out, they immediately aroused the recognition of Di Shuo and Di Yao. The three of them took advantage of this and attacked Di Yi continuously, exposing the fierce light in Di Yi's eyes. They almost hated the three of Di Yan to the core.
.
In response, the Earth Demon King nodded, and then said: Since Earth Yi is not qualified, which of the three of you can take on this important task?
After hearing this, the three people from Earth Flame didn't hesitate at all, they just held their heads high and said, "Father, I believe that I can take on this important task and lead the Earth Demon Clan to a more glorious future."
After saying that, the three people couldn't help but look at each other. Apparently they didn't expect the latter to say the same thing to them. For a moment, the three people's eyes met, and the cold light was revealed, and even murderous aura overflowed from the three people's bodies.
And with the emergence of this murderous intent, Zhu Tianpeng shrank his eyes and secretly said: It's about to begin.
Sure enough, the Earth Demon King on the throne was so angry that he smashed a jade cup beside him and shouted angrily: Bastards, do you still have me in your eyes?
