"So the four of you all agree that Bai Chen is not qualified to be my first-in-line heir, and you want me to pass the position of first-in-line heir to A Bao?"
The four demons standing in the hall below seemed to have already discussed the result, and they all maintained a positive attitude in the face of the Demon King's questions.
"Your Majesty, His Highness Bai Chen was once the first of the new generation of our demon race, so he is naturally worthy of the position of your Majesty's first-line successor."
"But now the news that His Highness Bai Chen's foundation has been damaged has spread throughout the demon clan. Only one-tenth of his cultivation remains. Your Majesty is the emperor of the demon clan, and the first-in-line successor affects the entire demon clan. Please make a decision as soon as possible!"
The ninth pillar angel, the demon god Baimon, was the first to stand up and face the problem of the Demon God Emperor.
Then the tenth Lightning Demon God Pal stepped forward and said, "Your Majesty, in addition to this, the position of Crown Prince has been vacant for a long time, and some bad voices have begun to spread within the clan, which has even affected Your Majesty's reputation. Please decide on the candidate for the position of Crown Prince as soon as possible."
The Demon King listened to what the two said without any change in his expression. Apart from him, the first four Demons did not make any move to speak, and it seemed that they did not want to express their opinions.
"Bai Meng, who do you think can be the first-line successor to my throne?" The Demon King looked at Bai Meng indifferently.
Bai Meng did not hesitate at all and said confidently, "According to the rules, when the first-in-line heir is unable to do the job, the second-in-line heir should take over the position of the first-in-line heir. I think His Highness Abao is capable of doing the job."
"His Highness Abao is extremely talented and possesses the qualities of perseverance and indomitable spirit. No matter when, he will go all out to move towards his goal and will never retreat. Even if he ends up with a bloody head, he will never change. He is fully qualified to be the first-in-line heir!"
The Demon King was not surprised to hear this result. It seemed that he had known this would be the answer. After a moment's silence, he looked at Pal.
"What about you? Who do you think is qualified to be the crown prince of the demon clan?"
Pal said bluntly, as if paying respect to Meng: "Your Majesty, due to His Highness Bai Chen was recuperating, all the affairs of the demon clan were handled by His Highness A Bao, and he handled them in an orderly manner, devoting himself to the development of the demon clan. Public opinions from all over the country were also suppressed by His Highness A Bao. Therefore, I believe that His Highness A Bao is fully qualified to be the crown prince!"
"Well, Agares, do you think what they said makes sense?" The Demon King looked at Agares on the right with a smile.
In just a moment, Agares guessed several possibilities in his mind and guessed the answer Feng Xiu wanted.
In addition to being the Moon Demon God Agares, he now has another identity: Bai Chen's father-in-law.
So when the Demon King did not ask anyone else but asked Agares first, not only did the four demons in the center of the hall look at Agares, but the three demons sitting next to him also looked at him with interest.
"It is a blessing for the demon race that Baimon and Pal can think about the development of the demon race. But have you ever thought about why His Majesty only dismissed His Majesty Bai Chen from the position of crown prince? Can't His Majesty see the problems that you can see?"
Agares did not directly answer the Demon King's question, but asked Baimon and Pal instead, cleverly diverting the blame.
After hearing this, Pal immediately retorted: "Your Majesty, I am also considering the future of the demon race."
Baimon looked to the sixth bear demon god, Valifer, behind him, and Valifer immediately stepped forward.
"Your Majesty, we are also doing this for the greater good of the demon race. If Your Majesty has made a decision, please let us know so that we can rest assured."
The eighth pillar of the Force, Barbatos, also spoke up: "Your Majesty, the human race has also received the news, and their morale is high. We need to respond as soon as possible to prevent the army from collapsing."
"The army is demoralized? Barbatos, do you think I'm in a bad mood recently and want to cheer me up, or do you think it's too boring for my father to listen to you guys talking and want him to relax a little..."
At this moment, a hearty voice came from outside the hall.
Except for the Demon King and the Star Demon, several other demons in the hall showed surprised expressions and looked towards the entrance of the hall.
Leng Xiao supported Bai Chen's arm, and the two of them slowly walked into the hall.
[Ding! Barbatos's anger*1000! ]
[Ding! Surprise from Agares*300! ]
[Ding! Surprise emotion from Samkina*200! ]
[Ding! Surprise from Malpasch*200!] [Ding! From...]
Feeling the continuous prompts from the system, Bai Chen instantly felt that he had come to the right place this time. He just didn't know if he could earn back the temporary recovery card he spent 100,000 emotion points to buy.
It all depends on how he performs next. He has already figured out the rules of emotional values. Emotional values are determined by two dimensions: the level of cultivation and the fluctuation of emotions.
There are nine ninth-order demon gods in the hall now, and not a single bit of this overwhelming emotional value can be wasted!
"Your Highness, what do you mean?" Barbatos looked at Bai Chen. He didn't expect to be ridiculed by a waste with a destroyed foundation. If Bai Chen were not the son of the Demon King, he would have slapped him in the face long ago.
The moment Bai Chen stepped into the hall, everyone's spiritual consciousness swept over him, not for anything else, just to verify whether Bai Chen had a damaged foundation and his cultivation was wasted, as the rumors said.
Now, everyone has already understood the result, and they can't understand the meaning of Bai Chen's actions. Logically speaking, staying in the palace is the best choice.
"I have met my father."
"I have met my father."
Bai Chen ignored Barbatos and brought Leng Xiao to the front of the hall, and they both bowed.
The Demon King did not make any movement before a gentle force dragged the two men up.
Bai Chen then turned around and looked at Barbatos. Although he had no skills at this moment and Barbatos could blow him to death with one breath, Bai Chen's momentum was not diminished at all.
"I just find it funny. When has our demon army ever had any morale? Apart from the leader with noble blood, aren't those low-ranking members of your tribe all idiots who can only bite each other? How can we talk about morale?" Bai Chen stared at Barbatos and smiled faintly.
"You!"
Barbatos' face turned cold. How could he remain calm when being insulted by Bai Chen in person? A sense of pressure was exerted on Bai Chen.
Leng Xiao frowned, took a step forward, and the blood of the magic dragon burst out, blocking Bai Chen.
[Ding! Barbatos's anger*10000! ]
Bai Chen didn't care about Barbatos's pressure. He felt the system's prompt, and his mood suddenly became better.
The three people around Barbatos held back their laughter when they saw this scene. They didn't expect that Bai Chen's words would make Barbatos break down.
Because what Bai Chen said was indeed true.
Where does the morale of the low-level demons come from...
At this moment, Bai Chen's gaze fell on the other three demons one by one.
"Not just him, you, you, and you, your low-ranking tribesmen, aren't they all just idiots who are just biting each other? Do you still have the nerve to talk about military morale?"
[Ding! Angry emotion from Valive*10000! ]
[Ding! Anger from Baimon*10000! ]
[Ding! Anger from Pal*10000! ]
