I was imprisoned by the Empress at the beginning, and I was secretly invincible

"Your Majesty, the Demon King, the soul lamp of King Peng is extinguished!"

In the Demon King's Court, a strong man who was responsible for guarding the ancestral temple hurried to report.

In this palace full of exotic customs, the Demon King was holding a book and reading it carefully. Hearing this, the book in his hand fell to the ground instantly, but he seemed not to notice it, and just looked at the strong man who came to report the news with a face full of shock.

Unlike the young and vigorous Empress of the Great Zhou Dynasty, the Demon King of the Demon God Empire is already gray-haired and old.

You should know that the lifespan of the demon race is longer than that of humans, especially for the demon race like him with extraordinary strength, the lifespan will be greatly extended.

But he is still a gray-haired old man, which shows that his age is definitely beyond the imagination of ordinary people.

"With the strength of King Peng...how is this possible?"

A touch of sadness flashed in the old eyes of the Demon King, and he muttered to himself with an unbelievable look.

He knew the strength of King Peng very well, otherwise he would not have given him such an important task.

But he never expected that this mission would actually cost him his life.

Although it was very dangerous to go deep into the heart of the Great Zhou, the situation in the Great Zhou was chaotic and the various forces were arguing endlessly.

In this case, as long as they acted cautiously and did not get surrounded and blocked by a large number of strong men, and returned immediately after completing the mission, it should be fine.

Especially since King Peng also had the blood of the demon Peng, once something went wrong, he could take off into the air and escape. Even if he looked at the world, there should be few people who could catch up with him. How could he not even escape this time?

Of course, he naturally would not have thought that it was not that King Peng did not want to escape, or could not escape, but that his wings were torn off by someone, just like an ordinary person had his legs cut off and could not escape at all.

This news was really too unexpected, even the Demon King could not help but be shocked.

However, before he could figure out what was going on, two more pieces of bad news came one after another.

"Report, the Pig King's soul lamp is extinguished--"

"Report to His Majesty the Demon King, the Monkey King's soul lamp is also extinguished--"

Hearing this, the Demon King opened his mouth, but couldn't say a word for a long time.

Then he took a deep breath and closed his eyes.

Looking carefully, his hands couldn't help but tremble slightly, which showed how excited he was.

Dead.

All dead!

He never thought that the three demon kings he sent to the Great Zhou would all die at once.

If only King Peng was killed, he could barely accept it, but the death of all three demon kings was a huge loss for the entire Demon God Empire.

Although the demon race has a longer lifespan, it is also more difficult for the demon race to advance and break through than humans, so every demon king-level strongman is the core pillar of the Demon God Empire.

Now that three people have been killed at once, and they are three demon kings directly under the demon king's court, the demon emperor is so heartbroken that he can't breathe.

Unlike the unified regime of the Great Zhou, the Demon God Empire is composed of the demon king's court and the major demon tribes. It's a bit like everyone living together.

Although the demon king's court is the strongest, the other demon tribes are not weak.

Moreover, the demons are all irritable and will fight if they disagree.

Today you hit me, tomorrow I hit you, the main thing is to be active, anyway, I will not farm peacefully, and often I will ignore the orders of the demon king's court.

That is to say, the current demon emperor has ruled the demon god empire for many years and has accumulated great prestige, so most of the time he can still keep the situation under control.

Otherwise, the demon god empire may be more chaotic than the current Great Zhou.

But now such a big thing has happened, even as the demon king, he cannot be arbitrary, and immediately sent people to invite a group of demon kings to discuss the matter.

"What, King Peng is dead? He is a bird in the sky, he can fly. With his flying speed, how can a mere human catch up with him? What a joke, I don't believe he is really dead!"

"And King Pig, that guy is tough and thick-skinned. Last time I fought him, I chopped him dozens of times, but he was just fine. I really find it hard to believe who can kill him."

"The same is true for King Monkey. His movements are as flexible as a monkey. No, he seems to be a monkey. It's not easy to catch him, let alone kill him. How could this guy die so easily?"

All the demon kings found it hard to believe this fact.

It has to be admitted that the three people chosen by the demon king were indeed carefully selected and each had their own characteristics.

King Peng can fly, King Pig can take a beating, and King Monkey is flexible.

The three of them work together, and there is no shortcoming.

But now,The three of them died all at once. This kind of thing is naturally shocking.

"The three soul lamps have gone out, and they are indeed dead. Moreover, the time of death is very close, which shows that they are most likely not killed alone, but killed together. And if you want to kill the three of them, one or two human heavenly realm strongmen are absolutely impossible, at least three or five people must join forces to have hope..."

The Demon King quickly expressed his judgment, and then looked at the many demon kings present.

Of course, most of the demon kings present are the kind of reckless men who can only shout and kill, and only a very few are good at thinking.

So the demon king mainly looked at the fox king, the deer king and a few others.

"Your Majesty, I think the reason why the three Peng Kings were killed is probably because they fell into a trap set by the Great Zhou!"

The Fox King's eyes flashed with wisdom, and he spoke first,

"As you judged, in order to kill the three Peng Kings, at least three or five Heavenly Realm strongmen must work together, and in order to make them have no chance to escape, there must be more people. Only by setting up a net can we accomplish the goal in one battle."

"And looking at the Central Plains, the only one capable of doing this is the Great Zhou court."

"In addition, there has been no news about the half-demon who has been in contact with us recently, so I guess he was either killed or secretly betrayed us, which made the Great Zhou court aware of it in advance and set up this trap!"

After hearing this inference, many demon kings present were confused and nodded in agreement.

"Your Majesty, do you know who that human emperor body is?"

At this time, the Deer King suddenly asked.

"I don't know either. According to the news sent back by the half-demon, this human emperor body should have just awakened not long ago and has been hidden and not discovered..."

"There must be something wrong with this half-demon!"

However, before the Demon King finished speaking, the Deer King said with a look of certainty.

"What do you mean? Is the human emperor body still fake?"

The Demon King frowned immediately.

"The human emperor body is naturally not fake. I believe everyone has felt the huge vibration of the resonance of heaven and earth not long ago. It is clearly a sign that the human emperor body has broken through the heaven and man realm."

"Even if it is a gifted human emperor body, it will take a long time to break through the heaven and man realm from nothing. After all... it is impossible for someone to break through the heaven and man realm in just a few months, right?"

"So, the other party is not like what the half-demon said, just awakened not long ago, but has clearly awakened a long time ago."

Hearing this, even the Demon King couldn't help but nod his head, thinking it made sense.

Even if the cultivation speed of the human emperor body is amazing, it is impossible to break through the heaven and man realm within a few months of awakening.

There is no way such a monster could exist in this world!

From this, it can be inferred that there is indeed something wrong with the half-demon.

Thinking that he was actually deceived by a half-demon and then ruined the lives of three demon kings, the Demon King could not help but be furious for a while, wishing to grind it to ashes.

Of course, what he didn't know was that someone had already done this for him.

However, at this time, the Deer King continued to speak:

"And the existence of the human emperor body is so great that every time it breaks through the barrier and advances, it must be accompanied by strange phenomena in the world. In addition, everyone knows that only the Ji clan can awaken the human emperor body. In this way, the scope of the lock is greatly reduced. How can it be possible to find someone?"

"So, what you mean is... we were deceived?"

The Demon King asked with an ugly face.

"Yes, it is very likely that this was a scam from the beginning!"

"The current situation is very clear. The Great Zhou does have a human emperor body awakened, and this human emperor body has now broken through the heavenly realm."

"And counting the Ji family geniuses who have emerged in recent years, there is only one person who meets the conditions of the human emperor body."

Speaking of this, the Deer King raised his head, looked at everyone, and said word by word:

"The human emperor body is 100% the Great Zhou empress!"
