The night on the Bovilia Plain was starlit, the breeze was gentle, and it was quiet and peaceful. Most people had fallen asleep, but the meeting hall in the City Lord's Mansion was brightly lit and crowded with dozens of people, including monsters, humans, and demons.
Most people were standing, and not many were qualified to sit on chairs.
The three demon kings, the Lion King, the Bear King, and the Ape King, Old Man Tianqin, Ouyang Dao, Ouyang Yuan, and Jiang Qi were all sitting at the conference table, discussing the upcoming war.
The Lion King kept complaining: "Why hasn't General Ye come back for so long? If he doesn't come back, our South Fire City will become the territory of the demons."
Jiang Qi disagreed: "We have a defensive magic array, 400,000 coalition troops, and 30,000 ancient warriors. It won't be easy for them to destroy us."
Ouyang Dao said with a serious expression: "Don't worry, Lion King. We have received the news that General Ye will be back in the next two days."
Elder Tianqin smiled confidently, stroking his pale beard and said, "Lord Lion King, I have communicated with General Ye. His Stoneman Corps has opened up a second battlefield in the west and has an absolute advantage, occupying several major cities of the left lord. If I am not mistaken, he will be able to return to South Fire City before the Silver Armor Corps of the Great Lord Realm arrives."
Ouyang Yuan smiled and said, "Lord Lion King, whether General Ye is here or not, the alliance between our two tribes is still unbreakable. Only by fighting side by side can we defeat the demon army."
After listening to everyone's persuasion, the lion king calmed down. His eyes were shrewd and he smiled, "Yes, our two tribes have been oppressed and exploited by the demons for thousands of years. Now we finally have an independent territory and are no longer slaves. It is not difficult to open up our own territory, but it is not easy to maintain it. The demons will not allow it and will definitely send a large army to invade. We have been prepared for a long time, but we lack the most solid force, that is, the leader. A group of dragons cannot be without a leader. If General Ye cannot get away because of the war in the west, then we have to elect a new leader to lead this war. When General Ye left, he specifically asked me to manage this South Fire City. It should be me who leads the coalition forces to fight."
Ouyang Dao and Jiang Qi did not speak. The Lion King led the demon army and had rich combat experience. If Ye Feng really could not come back, the coalition forces would need a commander-in-chief after the war.
Ouyang Yuan, wearing a blue robe, slowly stood up from his seat and said with a smile: "What the Lion King said is correct. If a war breaks out, the coalition forces will need a commander-in-chief, but the most qualified person to be the commander-in-chief is not the Lion King."
When the bear king heard Ouyang Yuan say that the lion king was not qualified to be the commander-in-chief, he immediately became unhappy and said coldly: "Then are you qualified?"
Ouyang Yuan shook his head: "Of course I am even less qualified."
The Ape King asked sullenly, "Then who do you think is qualified?"
"Of course it's my master, Elder Tianqin. When my master came to the Demon Realm from the Immortal Realm, he was a Golden Immortal. In the past five thousand years, he has fought against the demons thousands of times. He has the most experience and knowledge. Am I right?"
The three lion kings looked at each other and exchanged glances quickly.
Their faces were gloomy and uncertain, and they were very dissatisfied with Ouyang Yuan's words.
The bear king was stupid and honest by nature. Although he was not convinced, he did not argue. He just tilted his head, touched his belly and said nothing.
The Ape King was the most eloquent of the three, revealing a cunning look: "Mr. Ouyang is right, the old immortal Tianqin has rich experience, and no one present can compare to him, but what we want to talk about is the experience of leading the coalition. The establishment of the coalition started from our Wan Yao Ridge. At the beginning, there were only Ye Feng and our three demon kings. Humans only had some slaves who had no strength and could not even fire magic crystal guns. Later, we went through several difficult wars before we occupied this Nanhuo City. At that time, the old immortal Tianqin, your Daluo Jinxian, and the ancient warriors had not yet appeared. So the old immortal Tianqin has rich experience, but he is not suitable to be the leader of the coalition."
Ouyang Yuan showed an embarrassed look on his face: "If you say so, then the only ones who can lead the coalition forces, besides Ye Feng, are you three demon kings."
The Ape King chuckled and said, "Mr. Ouyang, you seem to be very sensible and have a clear view of things."
Old man Tianqin raised his eyebrows, with a hint of contempt in his eyes. He has always disliked the demon people. If it weren't for the fact that the Golden Immortal Daluo has reached the end of his strength in the Demon Fairy World, he would not be sitting here with the demon people.
He also needs this 400,000-strong human coalition force. It would be difficult for him to gain a foothold in this land with only his own 30,000 ancient warriors.
After he led 30,000 ancient warriors out of the dungeon, they came to the vast and picturesque Bevilia Plain, bathing in the breeze and sunshine. They never wanted to return to the stuffy and narrow dungeon again.
Ouyang Yuan sneered: "You demon people may be able to occupy the mountain and be the king, but if you want to compete with the demon army, your IQ is still a little weak."
The Bear King had been unhappy for a long time. When he heard Ouyang Yuan say that he, the Third Demon King, was not qualified and had a low IQ, he couldn't help but roared, causing the hall to buzz.
"What did you say? If it weren't for General Ye's sake, I would eat you right now."
Behind Ouyang Yuan stood two blue-robed Daluo Jinxians. Their faces suddenly darkened and golden light flashed in their hands. They already had the golden flying sword in their hands.
"How dare you be rude to our Master Ouyang? Be careful or we will use our flying swords."
Several demons behind the Lion King glared in anger and immediately raised the magic crystal guns in their hands, pointing the black muzzles at the Daluo Jinxian.
"You have flying swords, and we have magic crystal guns."
The atmosphere in the hall suddenly became tense. Everyone's eyes were glaring and they looked like they were about to start a fight if they disagreed.
Jiang Qi, who was watching from the sidelines, sneered, "With a powerful enemy at hand, you don't discuss how to fight the enemy, but are fighting for a commander-in-chief. That's great. The enemy hasn't come yet, but you're fighting among yourselves first. When the spaceship from the Great Lord Realm lands, they'll be happy when they see it. There's no need for them to fight, as the coalition forces are already fighting to the death."
Old man Tianqin frowned. Although Jiang Qi had an abominable face and was a demon, his words were true. The enemy hadn't arrived yet, but their own people had already started fighting. How could they talk about fighting side by side and joining forces to fight the enemy
He waved his hand and said, "Put away the flying sword, everyone, be patient."
The blue-robed man behind him then put away his flying sword and said respectfully, "Yes, old immortal."
The lion king also looked unhappy, and glared with his big eyes: "Why are you pulling out your guns? Didn't I tell you that we demons should be polite and have good manners? Why didn't you hear me?"
The demon put down his magic crystal spear and complained a little aggrievedly: "They were the first to draw their swords."
