The battlefield could not be won; everything equated to nothing. The Old Demon Dragon deeply understood this truth.
Amidst the flattery of the Turtle Demon's "Your Majesty is wise," it vanished in a flash, disappearing from its spot.

One day later, in the palace of the Demon Righteous Religion Country's Royal City.
An old Tree Demon was leading a powerful Demonkin with a catfish head, spitting angrily in the Great Hall.
This old Tree Demon was naturally the envoy sent by the Eastern Demon Kingdom to the Demon Righteous Church Country.
As for the Vice Envoy beside it, it was said to be a Demon General who had performed meritorious service by capturing the free citizens pardoned by the Holy Venerable on the border just a few days earlier.
The Eastern Demon Kingdom had deliberately sent this demon as an envoy, with the intent to provoke laid bare.
