The Divine General's Mansion had its own unique charm.

  In an instant, Xu Fang transformed into a streak of light and flew back into the clouds.

  “Master!”

  Upon seeing Xu Fang, the Star Spirit of Wuqu and the others in the clouds were overjoyed. “Master, what’s the situation below?”

  Xu Fang spoke, “Today is the wedding of the Bull Demon King. There are probably around thirty to forty thousand minor demon kings below, with varying strengths. However, his sworn brothers are no weaklings, making this battle somewhat tricky.”

  He then recounted the incident of stealing the Bull Demon King’s bride, deliberately omitting the part about plundering the treasure vault.

  He felt confident in facing the Bull Demon King and the others, but if all six of them joined forces, he wasn't certain he could handle it. He pondered for a moment before continuing, “Given the overwhelming force of the demons, we should hold our positions for now. Once the Bull Demon King realizes his bride has been stolen, the Sea King’s Palace will surely descend into chaos, and that will be our opportunity!”

  “Indeed, Master is right!”

  The Star Spirit of Wuqu nodded in agreement.

  At that moment, a sudden roar erupted from the Sea King’s Palace, echoing through the heavens!

  “The show is about to begin!”

  A smile crept onto Xu Fang's face. Just before he left the Sea King’s Palace, he had left a clone behind.

  Through this clone, he could clearly see the Bull Demon King unveiling the bride’s red veil in front of everyone.

  As the clone snapped its fingers, it revealed the transformation of the old woman, prompting an uproar of laughter from the audience!

  All the demon kings were left bewildered, unable to fathom how the Bull Demon King’s taste had become so peculiar!

  “Damn it! Who is responsible for this?!”

  The Bull Demon King’s face turned ashen, his triangular eyes fixed menacingly on the old woman.

  With his power, breaking the spell on the old woman was a piece of cake. However, she hadn’t even caught a glimpse of Xu Fang before falling victim to the spell.

  The tale has been illicitly lifted; should you spot it on Amazon, report the violation.

  Once the Bull Demon King dispelled the enchantment, the old woman could only tremble and kneel, begging for mercy!

  Xu Fang’s clone observed the Bull Demon King’s fury and the embarrassment etched on the faces of the Bull Demon King and the others.

  “If it comes to this, I can only slaughter everyone present!”

  The Bull Demon King’s thoughts turned dark as he contemplated this ruthless decision.

  The laughter from the demon kings only stoked his humiliation. To preserve his reputation, he felt he must eliminate everyone who knew about this incident!

  Gradually, the demon kings realized the sinister glint in the Bull Demon King’s eyes, and their laughter subsided.

  Seeing that the situation was escalating, Xu Fang’s clone decided to add fuel to the fire!

  “Not good! The Bull Demon King is about to go on a killing spree! Brothers, run!”

  With a shout, Xu Fang led the charge in retreat!

  The demon kings, who had come to celebrate, were mostly intimidated by the Bull Demon King’s reputation and his powerful comrades.

  Now seeing the Bull Demon King’s terrifying countenance and hearing Xu Fang’s warning, they all gasped and frantically fled toward the main gates of the Sea King’s Palace!

  “Here comes our chance!”

  Above the clouds, Xu Fang’s true form wore a smile as he decisively issued commands, “Drummers, beat the drums, and prepare for battle!”

  With the Sea King’s Palace in chaos, the opportunity had arrived!

  As the order was given, the heavenly soldiers in the Divine Strategy Camp immediately began to sound the war drums!

  Boom—

  Boom—

  Boom—

  The deep and resonant sound of war drums reverberated throughout the North Sea!

  ……

  Inside the Sea King’s Palace.

  The Bull Demon King glared at the demon kings fleeing in panic, a fierce glint flashing in his eyes.

  Just as he prepared to act, the sound of the drums thundered unexpectedly!

  “War drums? Where is that noise coming from?”

  The Bull Demon King’s expression shifted dramatically as he barked, “Everyone, don’t listen to the words of that villain. Immediately send someone to investigate who dares to make trouble here!”

  “Report—”

  Without needing to be told, a minor demon rushed in from outside the Sea King’s Palace. “My Lord, it’s bad! Just now, a large number of heavenly soldiers suddenly appeared in the sky, and they are currently sounding the drums of war!”

  “Heavenly soldiers? How dare they come here and cause trouble! They’re seeking death!”

  The Bull Demon King snorted angrily, channeling his rage toward the heavenly soldiers calling out from above.

  “Wait!”

  However, the Bull Demon King’s brother, the Bull Demon King, who was more seasoned, spoke up. “Did anyone see how many heavenly soldiers there are? Who is leading them?”

  “Hey, big brother, you’re being too cautious. There are only a few capable figures in the Heavenly Court, and the only one who could lead an army is likely Li Jing.”

  The Monkey King chimed in.

  “If it’s Li Jing, then he’s not much of a concern.”

  The Bull Demon King nodded, clearly trusting the Monkey King’s words. Among his brothers, the Monkey King was the most astute. “He only has Nezha under his command, but Nezha isn’t exactly on his side. How could he withstand our brothers?”

  “Ha ha ha, well said!”

  The Lion Camel Demon King burst into laughter. “Since that’s the case, big brother, let’s kill every last one of those lousy heavenly soldiers today. If that doesn’t help us vent our anger, let’s storm the Hall of Divine Mists, dethrone that old Jade Emperor, and claim the throne ourselves!”

  “Ha ha ha, that’s reasonable!”

  The other demon kings joined in, laughter echoing through the Sea King’s Palace.
