Chapter 448 Success
Li Ye arranged the demon wolf and the demon jackal to stand in the crowd in advance. The only purpose was to guide the public opinion and to release pressure on the demon bear. And he pretended to vomit blood and to be weak with disordered breaths.
When Li Ye said that he wanted the demon bear to take out all his Magic Treasures, the demon bear’s heart trembled. But now he had no time to care too much, so he hurriedly nodded to agree. “No problem. Just tell me what kind of Magic Treasures you want. As long as I have it, I’ll take it out!”
Li Ye said seriously, “All of them!”
The demon bear was a little stunned. “What did you say?”
Li Ye spat out a large mouthful of blood again. He fell straight to the ground, as if he suddenly lost all strength. At the same time, he looked at the crowd and shouted with grief and indignation, “The Lord doesn’t want to save me…”
The demon bear twitched his mouth slightly. As Li Ye was about to fall, the demon bear was in a flurry and his mind was in a tangle, but he was not a fool, so he was unwilling to take out all his Magic Treasures.
Seeing the demon bear’s hesitation, the crowd led by the demon wolf and the demon jackal immediately became angry. Some shouted to save Prince An, some blamed the Lord for being selfish, and some said that the Lord was disrespectful to the Seven Sages, ignoring the big plan of the demon clan.
Amid the noise, one voice stood out. It came from a demon leopard, who had been watching coldly with crossed arms and didn’t make a sound.
At this moment, he squinted at the demon bear and said coldly, “Lord, are you going to kill Prince An? Prince An was assassinated in the city, but the City Lord’s Mansion didn’t take any action at all, as if you haven’t noticed anything. Now Prince An came to you personally, but it seems that you don’t intend to chase the assassins. Are the assassins really your men like Prince An has said?”
The demon bear’s expression changed drastically.
The demon dhole was also shocked. What he said was harsh and revealing their plan.
When Li Ye came, he looked like he was seriously injured by the assassins and came for seeking justice. The demon bear and the demon dhole had been guarding against Li Ye previously. They wanted to regain the initiative, frame Li Ye, and convict him. They had no time to think about sending people to chase the assassins!
It was useless to chase the assassins because the mastermind was here. Did they have to make amends?
The demon bear was the mastermind, so he wouldn’t think of chasing the assassins. The noise lasted for a long time, and Li Ye was blackmailing him for his Magic Treasures. He was busy dealing with this, so the demon leopard took advantage of the opportunity and pointed out the fatal spot.
The demon bear and the demon dhole knew this arrogant and indifferent demon leopard.
He was also a famous great demon in this area. His cultivation was in the Taiyi Real Immortal Realm. In terms of fighting ability, he was stronger than the demon bear.
Originally, he was the strongest competitor for the Lord of Panfeng City, but he liked to be alone and didn’t have forces under his command. Moreover, he was arrogant and lazy and had less support, so he didn’t win the demon bear.
The demon leopard thought that he had the same cultivation as the demon bear, but his fighting ability was stronger than the demon bear’s, so after the demon bear became the Lord of Panfeng City, he was not convinced. Because of the Macaque King suppression, the demon leopard didn’t dare to do anything blatantly. However, whenever the demon bear was doing something improper, the demon leopard would take the opportunity to criticize him.
There was no exception this time.
In fact, the loser, who refused to lose, like the demon leopard, existed in many places.
The demon bear gritted his teeth in anger when he saw the demon leopard.
In his view, the demon leopard was a difficult troublemaker. He was angry when he saw the demon leopard, but he was unable to defeat him. Moreover, although the demon leopard always criticized him, he didn’t do any evil deeds, so he had no evidence to punish him. It was very disgusting.
In fact, the demon bear knew that no matter how hard the demon leopard tried, he couldn’t become the Lord of Panfeng City because he was lazy and didn’t have his own forces. However, it didn’t mean that the demon leopard couldn’t bring him down.
This kind of opponent who harmed others without benefiting himself disgusted the demon bear.
Hearing the demon leopard’s words, all the demons brought back their minds. Then they thought that it was indeed the case.
Prince An looked miserable, and he was seriously injured and about to die, but the demon bear, as the Lord, didn’t notice this at the time of the assassination. Moreover, he didn’t mention to chase the assassins up to now. This was clearly abnormal!
Therefore, the demons thought that they knew the truth and cast suspicious glances at the demon bear, asking for an explanation. Some demons, who tried to stir up trouble, even began to accuse the demon bear of having evil intentions and say that he was not qualified to be the Lord.
“Lord, why did you assassinate Prince An of the Tang Empire?”
“Did you collude with that damned Taoist Immortal Court and attempt to destroy our demon clan’s plan?”
“As the Lord, you sent people to assassinate the Grand Prince of the human world. This is really shocking news. It’s a stain on our whole demon clan!”
“Lord, give us an explanation. We know that you have your difficulties, but you have to tell us!”
“Are you guilty? Speechless? Admit it? Get out of Panfeng City. We don’t need the Lord like you!”
Like tides, their sounds were getting louder and louder. It soon spread across almost half Panfeng City and attracted even more demons.
Many demons’ eyes turned red, and many of them rolled up their sleeves. It seemed that they would immediately tear down the City Lord’s Mansion if the demon bear couldn’t give an explanation.
Seeing this, the demon bear was so frightened that he took a few steps back.
Even his henchman, the demon dhole, who claimed himself to be resourceful, also panicked at this moment.
The crowd was furious. They were demons, so they could do anything!
