Starting as a complete failure, he leads the demon race to sweep across the lower realm.

The front hall of the imperial palace.

Li Yang and Rou Sheng sat to the lower right of the emperor. The little girl, with her hands supporting her face, hid behind Rou Sheng's wide sleeves, her eyes already closed.

Below them stood a group of solemn ministers, waiting for Feng Mo, seated in the main seat, to finish reading the memorials they had just submitted and then engage in a debate with them.

Rousheng touched Li Yang's nose with a grape.

Cool.

With her eyes closed, Li Yang opened her mouth and put the grape in her mouth, then drowsily opened her eyes.

Feng Mo, who was in the lead, put down the last memorial and said calmly, "I have a general idea of ​​your thoughts. Besides what is written in this memorial, is there anything else you want to say?"

As soon as she finished speaking, all eyes in the hall turned to Li Yang.

Li Yang's drowsiness had mostly dissipated, and her large, red eyes, still half-asleep, stared blankly at everything.

No, we didn't tell her she was coming to be criticized.

Li Yang snuggled into Rou Sheng's arms, and Rou Sheng firmly protected her, saying, "If you have something to say, just say it. People who don't know better might think that you old folks are trying to beg my Yang Yang for a hand in marriage."

The elderly minister standing first on the left bowed and replied, "Your Majesty, Your Majesty, Your Majesty, is it inappropriate for you to be so protective of the daughter of the former head of the Xia family? You bestowed the title of princess so easily, and now you even want to hand over the Imperial Guard to her?"

Upon hearing this, Shan Hong became displeased. "You old codger, why are you making such a fuss over who's in charge of collecting gifts? If you're so capable, come and fight me first!"

The minister stammered in anger, "You brute!"

Dan Hong's lips curled slightly. "Thank you for the compliment."

Feng Mo looked at him with satisfaction. He had put him in the position of commander of the Imperial Guard because he liked his personality of arguing with everyone and everything, and he had said everything he wanted to say.

The hall fell silent for a moment, then another fearless man straightened up and said, "Your Majesty, the royal bloodline is dwindling, and I'm afraid there will be no one to inherit the throne in the future!"

Feng Mo said nonchalantly, "I've already found myself a heir, Yangyang."

"What?!" Li Yang crossed his arms, his expression as resolute as if he were joining the Party. "I'm a nobody, I can't inherit the throne!"

Disorganization and lack of discipline count as two; let her think of what other burden to drop...

"Your Majesty, look at this... What kind of behavior is this! Now that the evil race has reappeared, Fengyang Kingdom is in imminent danger! If you hadn't insisted on bringing the princess back and offended the Xia family, causing everyone in the Xia family to disappear, we wouldn't be in such a passive position!"

After saying that, she actually wanted to sit down and start crying.

"Say that again!" Rou Sheng suddenly slammed her hand on the table and stood up. "Are you saying that I can't lay eggs, so I have to steal someone else's child, and even killed the most powerful Xia family in Fengyang for her sake?"

The minister was so frightened that he froze, remaining in his squatting position and waving his hands repeatedly.

Feng Mo sneered, "Not only that, you also want to say that I, the emperor, am useless and can't even protect Fengyang Kingdom, right? Since you're so powerful, then you should sit on this throne!"

"No, no, no, that's not what I meant..." The minister was so frightened that he sat down abruptly. Several pairs of eyes swept over him, but no one spoke up for him. He couldn't get up, and he couldn't just lie there either. He was caught in a dilemma.

Li Yang sighed and walked out. The petite woman shrank her neck and looked pitiful as she faced the ministers. "Yang Yang didn't know she had caused so much trouble for everyone. This grandfather is right. The evil people were recruited by Yang Yang. I shouldn't have fought back when I was bullied in the Xia family. I shouldn't have revealed that my sister destroyed my dantian and then threw me into the Silent Forest. I deserve to die, sob sob sob."

The room fell silent upon hearing this.

Then Feng Mo roared angrily, "Throw him out! Slap him a hundred times at the palace gate! Shan Hong, you go yourself!!!"

"Alright!" Shan Hongle happily pulled him out, and the air finally quieted down a bit.

Feng Mo gave Rou Sheng a look, signaling her to help Li Yang, who was wronged but dared not speak, to the side to comfort her. The emperor's oppressive gaze fell on everyone again.

No one dared to say another word. Except for Rouhong, the three heads of the Li, Zeng, and Mo families still stood up straight, while everyone else shrank back like quails.

Seeing that he had established his authority, Feng Mo casually picked up a memorial and asked, "Does this memorial mean you still want to continue the sacrificial ceremony?"

"Your Majesty, when the late king was alive, the sacrifices were never missed every year, and the weather was always favorable. Although no one has dared to invade my Fengyang Kingdom since you ascended the throne, the reappearance of the evil race in Fengyang foreshadows that when the evil race grows strong enough, we will be the first country to be destroyed."

Seeing that Feng Mo's face was turning gloomy again, this stubborn minister began his supposedly brilliant brainwashing.

"Your Majesty, have you forgotten the news that circulated among the five major powers a few months ago? The orphan of the former Demon King has appeared. Before news of the return of a new king spreads among the demon race, we should wipe out the demon race in one fell swoop!"

Is Li Yang, the last surviving son of the Demon King?

She blinked; no one had told her that eating melons would end up affecting her.

"Yes, yes, yes! We've also heard about the princess's heroic act just now. She truly is a heroine!"

"Praise to death?" Li Yang waved his hand without saying a word. It's nothing!

Who knew that what this person said next would make her want to kill him on the spot!

"Given Miss Zeng's situation, since demons can restore humans infected by evil spirits, we can capture all the demons in the Silent Forest before the Demon King returns. That way, if the evil race really attacks, we won't be completely helpless."

A dark glint flashed in the man's eyes for a moment. After speaking, he raised his head as if to claim credit, as if he knew that Feng Mo would not punish him.

Li Yang stared wide-eyed, unable to react for a long time. If she hadn't had to hide her identity, this heroine would have made them feel the impending catastrophe!

Bite them to death one by one!

Knowing that his son had a contract with a demon beast, the Li family head was displeased. "Zhao Chen's idea is too cruel. Not to mention that the demon deep in the Silent Forest is guarded by a powerful demon, even if we can capture the demon, do you think we can escape the demon race's pursuit once the new demon king returns?"

"Tch, among the demon race now, only a few who followed the former demon king are capable of fighting. Now, demonic power is gradually being replaced by spiritual power. Where in the entire Xuan Domain is there any place for the demon race to cultivate?"

Only the Mo and Zeng families, led by the Li family, stood on the same side as them. The others agreed to reopen the altar and capture and keep the demons alive. The two sides held their own opinions and argued fiercely for a time.

"Ahem..." Feng Mo coughed lightly, glancing at Li Yang with a slightly apologetic look. At that moment, she knew there was no room for negotiation.

“Since you all want to resume the ritual, then so be it. But there is something you all don’t know.” Feng Mo tossed a stack of scrolls from his side and placed a blue crystal on the table.

With a gentle tap, an image began to play, showing countless terrified faces, their silent screams seemingly transmitted through the images to their hearts. Behind them stood a large group of strangely-looking demons.

"Look, Fengyang is not the first country to be targeted by the evil race. Yun'an Kingdom has now fallen in all areas except for its main city."

The air was instantly filled with gasps of breath.

Yun'an Kingdom?

Li Yang's heart skipped a beat. The arrogant devil had gone to Yun An Kingdom!
