Chapter 1710: Chapter 768: Transition of Old and New

Since most demons were invited to the banquet, even those not qualified to enter found bearing witness from the outside to be absolutely necessary.

Ordinary demons couldn’t control the changing situation, all they could do was witness and comply, then live better lives.

This is the same survival principle as that of small characters among humans.

"Over there is the venue for the banquet."

The local tyrant pointed ahead, where lights were bright and demons danced in chaos.

Countless demons sang and danced, the scene left Xiang Shui Fan stunned.

So demons have this side too? It’s simply, simply no different from human festivals...

Xiang Shui Fan had just begun thinking this when he saw humans tied to stakes being carried sideways into the banquet by several demons.

The long table already stood there like a main course dining table for some time.

"...Demon! Demons!"

Xiang Shui Fan clenched his fists, the fleeting sense of recognition disappeared instantly!

No matter how much their actions mimic, demons are just demons!

...

The banquet was held in the open-air grand square.

For such a grand event, with so many demons, arranging it indoors wouldn’t highlight the solemnity and grandeur of this banquet.

Demons from all corners of the city gathered, any demon with a name was invited; as for those of lower status, they would desperately try to get a seat at the banquet.

Unfortunately, such places aren’t for these small roles to occupy; most of the time, they can only watch from the outskirts, with many other little demons, reduced to mere spectators augmenting the atmosphere. At most, when observing, their positions might be a bit closer. 𝒻𝘳ℯℯ𝑤ℯ𝒷𝘯ℴ𝓋ℯ𝘭.𝑐ℴ𝑚

Yet even being treated so disrespectfully, these demons still came with eager faces to attend the banquet.

The reason was simply because this banquet was so important.

Because at this banquet, the announcement of who the new Four Great Demon Kings are will be made!

In the Demon Capital, Demon Kings possess absolute authority, holding a prestigious status second only to one person, as well as command over most of the city’s Demon Army!

Most importantly... this time, the new Demon Kings aren’t like the old Four Great Demon Kings who rose to power through connections.

The new Demon Kings all climbed to the position by stepping over the heads of other demons with their strength, making all demons in the Demon Capital wholeheartedly accept them!

Among demons, the fist is king!

Although everyone obeyed the old Demon Kings before, this was done only out of respect for the Demon Emperor.

If judged solely by strength, among the newly joined super great demons of the Demon Capital, aside from the Green Demon King, which isn’t certain to dominate, which one cannot suppress other old Demon Kings recklessly?

So among the city’s demons, there had long been grievances towards the Four Old Demon Kings, believing their virtues didn’t match their positions.

But with the Demon Emperor Lan Yuhe above, no one dared to say much.

Now with the old Four Great Demon Kings closing off in seclusion, leaving positions of power vacant, naturally they should go to the capable!

These past days, to vie for these positions, those super great demons have stirred up a bloody storm, causing chaos within the city, leaving demons in a state of fear and turmoil.

Only recently has the situation gradually stabilized, old rules have begun to be abolished, and new rules have been put in place.

And now, the moment has arrived for the new Demon Kings to make a formal announcement to the public.

Everything happening within the city must be known to the Demon Emperor, yet since the Demon Emperor hasn’t expressed any opinion, it means tacit approval, acceptance of the Demon Kings born from this competitive relationship!

Convinced, this time the city’s demons are truly convinced.

This time, those who emerged must be the Demon Kings among Demon Kings, the strongest of the strong, gaining unanimous recognition from all demons in the city!

This is the true Demon King in their hearts! The existence that truly represents the strength and identity of the Demon Capital! Not those few fake Demon Kings who relied on old merits and relationships to abuse power and intimidate!

The demon heart yearns, fulfilling everyone’s wishes.

Amidst the anticipation of all demons, when the volume of the demon musical ensemble at the banquet reached its peak, with the Sea Clam Frogs belching their enchanting last notes...

"Strange Bone Fragrant Meat Multi-Armed Demon arrives!"

"Land Suppressing Sea Dark Heart Demon arrives!"

"Eight-Eyed Fierce Earth Demon arrives!"

"Long-haired Fire Stepping Demon arrives!"

Four grand voices rang out.

In the night sky, a black cloud accompanied by thunder light surged downwards, from the cloud emerged several rotten arms holding various weapons, even crawling steadily using arms, ’strode’ towards the leftmost of the four huge stone thrones in the center.

Rumble——

Land Suppressing Sea Dark Heart Demon refused to be outdone, causing the starting point of all demons present to undulate like ocean waves, ebbing and flowing.

Until Land Suppressing Sea Dark Heart Demon ’surfaced from the waves’, the enormous body had settled on the central-left stone throne, the massive figure completely covering the throne.

Compared to the exaggerated scenes of the first two, the Eight-Eyed Fierce Earth Demon appeared much simpler, merely parting the crowd, the towering figure of five or six meters directly sat on the third stone throne, eight eyes disdainfully scanning below, crossing eight arms over its chest, adopting the Superior’s posture of assessment.

Suitably entering without fanfare, carrying the powerful aura unique to a king!

As for the last Long-haired Fire Stepping Demon, in the night sky, a few dazzling sparks emerged like fireworks, adding to the atmosphere, and the figure seemingly flickered like teleportation, appearing abruptly before the last throne in a few blinks, humanely touching the long hair on its face, sitting on the throne, exuding a lazy yet bold aura.
