Chapter 1451 The Scapegoat
Upon hearing this, the prince looked at Prince An silently. He insisted on investigating this matter not to find the murderer from her daughter.
He wanted to find out the person who was endangering his den.
But the leader will definitely not say what he really thinks.
"Prince An is right. After all, she is my daughter-in-law-to-be. We cannot let her die in obscurity. We must find the thief." The prince said.
"Lord, I didn't expect you to be so wise and righteous. Thank you very much." Prince An was moved when he heard this.
After all, King An is different from King Ling. King Ling treats every child as grass and throws them out to grow alone after the age of five, while King An treats every child as a treasure.
Yan Li on the side: ...
This Prince An doesn't seem to be very smart.
So the ancient demons began to search everywhere for demon dens even more frantically.
In Ah Shi’s den of evil.
"Master, master, bad news, bad news." Ah Shi, who had just returned from a visit to the alchemist, said as he came back.
"What happened? Is your tail on fire?" Yan Li said, looking at the tail that Ah Shi had specially hidden behind him.
"It's more serious than a fire on the tail. I secretly heard a piece of news that an ancient demon king will arrive soon." A Shi replied.
"Ancient Demon Emperor? More powerful than the Ancient Demon King?" Yan Li's eyes were full of curiosity.
"That's for sure, so let's leave first." A Shi nodded.
"No need, we won't be discovered if we're invisible." Yan Li shook her head.
"Since the master said so, I feel relieved." Ah Shi nodded with relief.
"Why don't we do something bad before the Ancient Demon Emperor arrives?" Yan Li looked at them with a smile.
"Okay." Everyone nodded in agreement.
At this time, the sky was gradually darkening, and Yan Li and the others walked outside.
At this time, not far from the devil's den, a figure was walking towards this side.
"What the hell is going on between Prince Ling and Prince An? I have to sneak in and take a look." The figure muttered.
He is the Ancient Demon Emperor who came this time.
So he sneaked into the king's lair.
It is said that Yan Li and his companions picked out some of the king's minions this time.
Everyone worked in unison to place the explosive scrolls under each demon's den.
Just when Yan Li and the others had finished their arrangements, the Ancient Demon Emperor suddenly appeared.
"This leader's lair looks quite peaceful. It's not as dangerous as they reported." muttered the Ancient Demon Emperor.
When Yan Li and the others heard this, they knew that this person was probably the legendary Ancient Demon Emperor.
Yan Li signaled everyone to step back. They had done this many times in the past few days, so everyone tacitly stepped back a long distance.
At the moment of detonating the explosive scroll, Yan Li stuffed an explosive scroll into the hands of the Ancient Demon Emperor and quickly retreated a long distance.
The Ancient Demon Emperor, who was originally observing his surroundings, was suddenly confused when he saw an extra scroll in his hand.
But before he could react, earth-shaking explosions were heard all around him.
He was stunned to see those demon dens turned into ruins!
The two ancient demon kings heard the explosion and rushed towards here at a rapid speed.
When they saw the Ancient Demon Emperor standing there and looking around in amazement, they were dumbfounded!
“Well… these explosions have nothing to do with me. It was already dark when I arrived, and I didn’t want to alarm others, so I came in by myself.” The Ancient Demon Emperor explained.
The two ancient demon kings looked at him with suspicion.
Just when the Ancient Demon Emperor wanted to explain something, he suddenly felt a sharp pain in the hand holding the scroll!
So he reflexively threw the explosive scroll in his hand away, and threw it in the direction of the two ancient demon kings.
Boom!
An explosion sounded, and the two poor ancient demon kings were fried to a crisp on the outside and tender on the inside!
The Ancient Demon Emperor was dumbfounded when he saw this scene!
He finally realized that he was being plotted against!
"Emperor Guo, how do you explain this?" The leader looked at the Ancient Demon Emperor.
"If I say that this scroll suddenly appeared in my hands, would you believe it?" The Ancient Demon Emperor looked at them.
"Do you think we will believe it?" Prince An's face was grim!
He had already determined in his heart that the Ancient Demon Emperor was the culprit who had bombed Ling Wang's lair and killed his daughter!
"This emperor is truly wronged." The Ancient Demon Emperor said loudly.
"Emperor Guo, we will let His Majesty give us justice in this matter." Prince An said.
They definitely cannot defeat the Ancient Demon Emperor, so they can only ask the Ancient Demon Lord to come out!
"You...it's really not me who did it." The Ancient Demon Emperor was going crazy.
He had seen such a stupid ancient demon!
"Emperor Guo, seeing is believing. We are in this state because of you." Prince An pointed at himself and spoke to Prince Ling.
"No... no, why can't you understand what I'm saying? It wasn't me who did it." The Ancient Demon Emperor's eyes were full of anger.
Yan Li, who was hiding nearby, almost laughed out loud when he saw this. Others were at most the scapegoat, but he was the scapegoat emperor!
It matches his name very well!
Guo Huang, Guo Huang, isn’t that just Guo Huang?
"I can't explain it to you." The Ancient Demon Emperor was also irritated by them and turned to leave.
"Emperor Guo, you can't leave." Prince An immediately stopped him.
"Do you still want to block my way?" Emperor Guo's aura was surging.
"Emperor Guo, we have just sent a message to His Majesty. He will arrive tomorrow, so you cannot leave yet." The leader said.
The Ancient Demon Emperor was helpless when he heard this!
It seems that this time I will die and even my own blood cannot wash away the sin!
I can only wait for His Majesty to arrive tomorrow and let him make the decision for me!
Although he suspected that the Ancient Demon Emperor was the culprit, his identity was there after all, so the king still arranged a good demon's lair for him.
When the Ancient Demon Emperor passed by Yan Li and the others, Yan Li moved his fingers and a trace of medicine powder fell on the Ancient Demon Emperor.
Everyone dispersed, and Yan Li and the others followed A Shi back to his den of evil when they saw there was nothing more to watch.
Who knew that just as they returned to the demon's den, an ancient demon came to report that the leader wanted to see him.
Ah Shi nodded and followed the ancient demon away.
Yan Li and the others were curious about what the ancient demon king wanted to do with A Shi, so they followed him.
It is said that Ah Shi came to the demon's lair where the ancient demon king usually discussed things with the elders.
When he went in, he saw King Ling, King An, and many elders.
Ah Shi was stunned when he saw this scene!
Could it be that our masters have been exposed?
"Father, is there something you want to talk to me about?" A Shi looked at the prince and asked.
"The first thousand and thirty-eighth son..."
"Father, you can just call me Ah Shi." Hearing such a long name, the prince felt a little conflicted.
"Ashi, the Lord will arrive tomorrow. Among all my children, you are the most thoughtful. Come with me to welcome the Lord tomorrow." The prince looked at Ashi and said.
In fact, among so many children, he just had a better impression of A Shi because of the princess's selection of a husband.
