Chapter 449 The Threat of the Spirit Demon Race 2
Chapter 449 The Threat of the Spirit Demon Race 2
"I just heard the Emperor say that there is no harmony among the demon race, which must be because of this ape race!"
Miao Yun looked at Ying Chen, smiled slightly, and spoke.
"Indeed! This demon race is less of a single race and more of an alliance bound together by shared interests..."
"Although the demon race is ruled by the Holy Demon Emperor, and the Golden Crow clan to which the Holy Demon Emperor belongs is the royal family, other races within the demon race have considerable autonomy..."
"Those minor races are alright; they don't have the power to disobey the Holy Demon Emperor's orders..."
"But races like the apes are different. They are powerful, have deep roots, and even have their own army..."
"Their relationship with the Holy Demon Emperor was less that of a ruler and his subjects and more that of a cooperative one..."
"Normally they obey the Holy Demon Emperor, but when faced with a life-or-death situation or a situation that threatens their own interests, they will disobey the Holy Demon Emperor's orders without hesitation..."
Ying Chen said calmly.
"Your Majesty, your analysis is correct..."
"The Holy Demon Emperor is nominally the supreme ruler of the demon race, but that's only because truly powerful races like the Dragon race haven't emerged yet. This allowed the Golden Crow clan to become the royal family. There are still many races within the demon race that don't submit to the Golden Crow clan..."
"They have caused the Holy Demon Emperor a lot of trouble, both openly and secretly, all along."
"Among these races, the apes are the best... Hmm! You mean the elite..."
"The ape clan, relying on the presence of Yuan Hong, a powerful expert at the Human Immortal Realm, acted without any scruples. Perhaps this time they truly crossed the line with the Holy Demon Emperor, which is why they met such an end..."
"At the same time, this is also a warning to those races that do not submit to the Golden Crow Clan: if they dare to defy the Holy Demon Emperor again, the Ape Clan will suffer the same fate..."
Miaoyun found a chair, sat down, crossed her legs, and said leisurely.
"Yes! You're right!"
Ying Chen nodded in agreement.
"While you were away, Sixuan kept talking about you, her master!"
"Very well! I've been missing my good disciple anyway..."
"On my way back, I heard that Consort Shuang has given birth to a prince for Your Majesty. I would like to see what kind of talent Your Majesty's child will possess..."
Miao Yun smiled. On her way back, she had heard that a prince had been born in the Great Qin Dynasty.
Along the way, in the cities of Qin, the people were celebrating the birth of the emperor's son.
This shows how high Ying Chen's prestige was in the Qin Dynasty; the birth of an imperial prince could cause such a sensation.
"Go!"
Ying Chen nodded and said with a smile.
"I resign!"
Miaoyun bowed again and left the Imperial Study, heading towards the inner palace.
Miaoyun now has her own residence in Xianyang City, but she has not moved out yet.
Firstly, Huangfu Sixuan is currently in the imperial palace accompanying Murong Yishuang, and as Huangfu Sixuan's teacher, she naturally needs to be by her side to teach her.
Secondly, Ying Chen also hoped that Miao Yun would stay in the harem, because the harem of the Great Qin was too empty, and there were no elders who were close to Ying Chen.
With Huangfu Sixuan and Miaoyun by her side, Murong Yishuang wouldn't be so lonely.
After Miaoyun left, Yingchen summoned Lu Bing.
"See the Emperor!"
After Lu Bing arrived at the Imperial Study, he stood respectfully below and bowed.
"Get up!"
"With this major upheaval among the apes, have any of the Imperial Guards who were infiltrating them suffered any losses?"
Ying Chen asked.
"Your Majesty, the Imperial Guards who infiltrated the Ape Clan withdrew before the great battle and only returned in disguise after the battle ended, so they suffered no damage..."
Lu Bing answered truthfully.
"Hmm! Not bad! Now that the ape tribe is basically no longer a threat, the Imperial Guards can focus their investigations on other areas..."
"Especially the Golden Crow Clan, the royal family of the Holy Demon Dynasty..."
"Find out as much as possible about their strength!"
Ying Chen praised him and then continued.
"Here!"
Lu Bing said respectfully.
"By the way, did the Spirit Race make any unusual moves when the Ape Race attacked the Human Race?"
Ying Chen suddenly thought of something and asked.
"Your Majesty, when the ape tribe attacked the human race, the Spirit Devouring Heavenly Dynasty did indeed show signs of troop redeployment. However, the ape tribe was defeated too quickly. Before their main army could even set out, the ape tribe had already been defeated. Therefore, they had no choice but to abandon the idea of attacking the human race together with the other ape tribes..."
"However, the Embroidered Uniform Guard discovered that after the Ape Clan's defeat, the Spirit Clan sent people to the Demon Clan to meet with the Holy Demon Emperor. We don't know what they discussed..."
"However, after the people sent by the Spirit Race returned, the Spirit Race fell silent..."
"I believe the Spirit Clan will definitely make a move, but we haven't yet found out what they're planning. I've already ordered the Embroidered Uniform Guard to investigate as soon as possible..."
Lu Bing respectfully addressed Ying Chen.
The news had only just arrived. He had originally planned to tell Ying Chen after he had found out more about the Spirit Clan, but since Ying Chen had asked, he decided to just tell him directly.
Hearing Lu Bing's words, Ying Chen frowned slightly and asked, "Besides the Spirit Race and the Demon Race, have any other races in the Central Region made any unusual moves...?"
"The other races, on the other hand, have been quite well-behaved, showing no signs of targeting the human race or our Great Qin. In fact, many races have sent envoys to the human ancestral court, hoping to establish friendly relations with the human race..."
Lu Bing thought for a moment and then said.
"Hmm! Focus on gathering intelligence on the Spirit Race and the Demon Race. Also, send an order to Yue Fei at the Human Race's ancestral court, instructing him to seize the time to subdue the major human forces. The time for our Great Qin to completely descend upon the Central Region is not long..."
Ying Chen nodded and said.
"Here!"
Lu Bing was startled and quickly said.
"Okay, let's get down!"
Ying Chen waved his hand and said.
"I resign!"
Lu Bing bowed again and left the imperial study to convey Ying Chen's orders.
After he left, Ying Chen fell into thought.
The Central Region is definitely a place that the Great Qin will go to.
After all, the Central Region is the center of the entire continent. Its abundance of spiritual energy, resources, and the probability of producing geniuses are unmatched by any other place outside the Central Region...
Even the Great Qin of today can only barely compare with the Central Region.
However, how to get to the Central Region is a problem.
Although the Great Qin had constructed several large teleportation arrays between the Great Qin and the Central Region, which were more than enough for the army to pass through.
However, there are dozens of other major regions between the Great Qin and the Central Region, and the Great Qin will not let these regions go either.
His decision to have Yue Fei subdue the various human forces was a preparation for the eventual complete arrival of the Qin Dynasty.
"Somebody come!"
Ying Chen called out.
Cao Zhengchun immediately jogged in: "Your Majesty, what are your orders?"
Cao Zhengchun said respectfully.
"Summon Xu Da, Guan Yu, and Zhang Fei to see me..."
Ying Chen said in a deep voice.
"Here!"
Cao Zhengchun bowed respectfully and then hurriedly left the imperial study to summon the three men.
