What Ming Shu proposed was only a guess, and there was no evidence to support it.
However, everyone also felt that the behavior of the demon was abnormal. Maybe Ming Shu’s guess was right.
Everyone prepared to investigate.
But before they could take action, the demon took action first. What did the demon care about before? It didn’t enter the big town.
However, when they returned to the imperial city, the demon launched an attack on the big town.
Everyone tried their best to resist, but many people were still captured by the demons.
The demons didn’t want to fight anymore. They only captured people and ran away as soon as they caught them.
When they chased after them, they either lost them or were caught unprepared by the demons lying in ambush.
Now, not only the northern Tong County and Lanxi County, but also the three provinces and ten counties all had demons.
The entire continent was once again in chaos.
The demons not only ate people, but also the other races. It was just that the humans were easier to catch. But now that they were all fighting, the other races were not spared.
“The best way now is to pretend to be caught,”Ming Shu said. “Then we can know what they are doing.”
“Princess, you are right, but it is very dangerous.”
“They are caught by the demons in their territory and want to come out alive…”
Everyone looked at each other.
This was like a sheep entering the tiger’s mouth. They had to be prepared to go and never come back.
“I will go!”
Someone volunteered.
Ming Shu and Xin Yu didn’t say anything. Even if they wanted to go, it was not their turn.
Their current strength and status didn’t allow it.
Finally, the team selected a few people.
“Take care of yourselves.”Ming Shu stood in front of them. “This is a teleportation talisman. If you are in danger, use it to teleport back immediately.”
“Thank You, Your Highness.”
“Your Highness, if we really meet with misfortune, can you please take care of our family members?”
Ming Shu nodded.
The next time the demons attacked, these people would sneak into the group of people who were captured.
Everyone could do nothing but wait.
However, the first time they went, they didn’t receive any news until the next time the demons attacked.
The situation was getting more and more dire. All parties were trying to find out more information about the fiendish demons.
Other than not receiving any news from the people they sent, there was still no news.
“Princess, Princess, Lord Ling invites you to make a trip to Lanxi Prefecture.”
“Now?”
“Yes, now.”The person said, “The king has gone as well.”
Father had personally made a move.
Lanxi prefecture..
What did Lord Ling discover?
– ..
Lanxi County.
It was completely different from when she came here a few years ago. The pleasant scenery was ruined. The ordinary people shrank back and didn’t dare to come out.
The whole city was gloomy and depressed.
Ming Shu’s little face was tense. She was welcomed into the city Lord’s mansion. Xin Yu wanted to stay in the northern Tong County and didn’t come with her.
“Your Highness.”
“Greetings, Princess…”
“Imperial father.”
The king nodded and gestured for her to sit down. Almost everyone was here.
Lord Ling stood up and cupped his hands at everyone. Without wasting any time, he went straight to the point. “Previously, I sent people to disguise as captured commoners and blend into the troops of the fiendish demons.”
“The previous few times, they all failed and no one returned alive. But a day ago, I asked one of them to bring a voice transmission stone. From the voice transmission stone, I heard something. It was urgent, so I asked the king and all the Lords to come to Lanxi County.”
“Your Highness, your speculation was right. The demons were feeding something. It is said that… It is a devil God.”
The hall fell into a strange silence.
Ming Shu looked at her father in confusion. “Father, what is a devil God?”
The king said in a low voice, “Legend has it that when the Xuanzi continent was first formed, there were two gods. One was our god of creation, and the other was the Devil God.”
The two gods were born in different places. The god of creation controlled all light and good, while the Devil God controlled darkness and evil. They were destined to be enemies from birth.
The human race and other races were all created by the god of creation. They followed the god of creation, while the demons followed the Devil God.
They kept fighting, and the people were destroyed. The race that the god of creation couldn’t bear to change disappeared in the flood of history and asked the god of Devil for a final battle.
That battle was earth-shattering.
The god of creation and the god of Devil died at the same time.
And at that time, the heaven enlightenment tower appeared without any warning. From then on, the dark purple continent rested and developed until now.
But every once in a while, the demons that didn’t die out would come back.
That was the first time Ming Shu heard the name of the Heaven Enlightenment Tower.
“Is this information accurate?”The king asked.
”… I can’t be sure for now,”Lord Ling said. “If it really is the Devil God, we…”
The god of creation had tried his best to die with the Devil God.
The power of the Devil God was unimaginable.
“Investigate!”The king ordered. “We must investigate clearly!”
The news came from Lanxi County, and it was also Lanxi County that had the first appearance of demons. Everyone’s focus was naturally on Lanxi County.
But Ming Shu felt that something was wrong.
But she couldn’t tell what was wrong.
“Little Shu.”
“Father.”Ming Shu called out crisply.
The King looked relieved. “Will you blame father?”
“Father? What are you talking about?”The little girl pulled the king’s sleeve. “Why should I blame you?”
The king: “You are the eldest princess of my Liyang. Father can’t let you live a carefree life like an ordinary child and let you bear so much…”
The king felt uncomfortable in his heart.
This was not something that a girl like her should bear.
She was still a child now. Just three or four years ago, she was still a child who would act coquettishly and throw tantrums at her.
But now..
Although she still retained her strange elf-like character, she had the calmness and sharpness that had been honed on the battlefield.
Ming Shu hugged the emperor’s arm and leaned her head against him. “Father, you said it yourself. I am the eldest princess. I want to protect my people and protect the Xuanzi continent.”
“When Father has an heir to the throne in the future, I won’t have to be so tired anymore.”Ming Shu raised her head. “So, father, quickly give birth to a younger brother with mother.”
The ruler’s body stiffened.
After a long while, he said, “Little Shu, if… Father said if, he wants you to inherit the throne in the future, are you willing?”
“Me?”Ming Shu hummed. “But I’m a woman, so I can’t inherit the throne.”
“Father only said if, are you willing?”
Ming Shu quickly shook her head.
“I don’t want to be trapped in the palace. Father has to deal with endless political affairs and meet countless ministers every day. He doesn’t even have time to accompany mother and me. It’s too scary.”
The King:”…”
“Little Shu.”
“Huh?”
“You blame father?”He also knew that he didn’t have time to accompany mother and daughter, but as the king, he had no choice.
“No.”Ming Shu smiled. “Father has to be responsible for the people of the entire Xuanzi continent. I can accompany Mother.”
The king touched her head, his eyes filled with Hope and love. “Little Shu, you have to grow up quickly and become stronger. You have to remember that only by being strong can you protect yourself and the people you care about.”
