"Bastard, what else would you call a child born from a slave wife?" Yu Die said coldly.
Originally, out of respect for the Little Rakshasa King, Lanling didn’t plan to bother with Yu Die, as the Little Rakshasa King was truly the only person in the Demon Territory who felt like a confidant to him.
But unexpectedly, this Yu Die turned out to be so foolish.
With a command from Lanling, Gou Li immediately came in and dragged Yu Die out.
The maids and servants brought by Yu Die were indeed loyal, rushing forward one after another.
"How dare you! Princess Yudie is the sworn sister of Princess Sha Yan and a Commandery Princess of the Rakshasa Royal Family. Do you intend to rebel?"
Each maid and servant was equally full of superiority.
However, a Death Samurai stepped forward and effortlessly knocked all these servants and maids to the ground.
Then, they pried open Princess Yudie’s mouth and pulled out her tongue, ready to cut it off at Lanling’s command.
Lanling crouched down in front of her and slowly asked, "Are you from the Near-Human Tribe?"
The so-called Princess Yudie desperately shook her head.
Lanling waved his hand, and Death Samurai Constantine released the clamp, restoring her ability to speak. Google seaʀᴄh 𝙣𝙤𝙫𝙚𝙡⚫𝔣𝔦𝔯𝔢⚫𝘯𝘦𝘵
"I am not from the Near-Human Tribe." Yu Die lifted her voice, "I am Rakshasa."
Lanling said, "But you clearly have the appearance of the Near-Human Tribe."
Yu Die replied, "No, I am Rakshasa, granted the identity of Rakshasa by the Rakshasa Royal Family."
Lanling narrowed his eyes and said, "I’m giving you a choice now. If you admit you are from the Near-Human Tribe, I’ll let you go. If you think you are Rakshasa, I’ll cut off your tongue."
"I am Rakshasa, I am Rakshasa..." Yu Die shouted madly, "I am an honorable Rakshasa. Don’t equate me with your lowly Near-Human Tribe. Even if you cut off my tongue or chop off my head, this is still my answer."
Yu Die’s gaze was indeed without fear, even filled with a spirit ready to face death.
Lanling was taken aback; he hadn’t expected such a scene. Then he couldn’t help but think of many such brave warriors in the Earth world of his previous life.
"Cut it off..." Lanling ordered.
Then, Constantine was about to cut off the so-called Princess Yudie’s tongue.
However, she remained fearless, ready to face death, which saddened Lanling even more.
At this moment, Dina suddenly ran over, knelt in front of Lanling, and said, "Husband, please reconsider your decision."
Lanling frowned and said, "Why?"
Dina said, "Because she cursed our Lan Suo, that’s why you’re cutting her tongue. I don’t want the baby to bear such a sin."
"This is not a sin!" Lanling said, "Besides, as my son, can he not bear even this slight sin?"
Dina gently said, "Husband, this baby is my everything. He has only been in this world for a day. I don’t want him to have any blood debt because of this, so please spare this stupid and pitiful woman."
With that, Dina bowed her head forcefully.
In Lanling’s perspective, his son was the Demon Emperor’s successor. Bearing a mere human life, let alone a thousand or ten thousand, was no issue at all.
Yet to Dina, she didn’t want her baby to have even the slightest blood debt.
"Husband, please calm your anger..." Dina pleaded.
Lanling frowned and said coldly, "Confine Yu Die and her people in a room and cancel any special treatment!"
Thus, Yu Die and dozens of maids and servants were all confined in a single room.
They lost any treatment as Lanling’s wife’s guests, transforming from dignitaries to prisoners.
The Crown Prince of the Dichacha Clan was a beautiful yet slightly effeminate Demon Race man.
He hosted a very unexpected guest, the Crown Prince of the Rakshasa Tribe.
"Greetings, Brother Disha," the Little Rakshasa King greeted meticulously.
The Crown Prince of the Dichacha Clan smiled and said, "With the great war imminent, how is it that you, virtuous brother, have the time to visit me?"
The Little Rakshasa King said, "There are some matters that I can’t quite make sense of, and I wish to seek advice from you, elder brother."
The Crown Prince of the Dichacha Clan said, "Among the Crown Princes of the eight major Demon Races, you, virtuous brother, have always been the most outstanding. I, the foolish brother, am notoriously obtuse, so please don’t make fun of me."
The Little Rakshasa King said, "With the Demon Empire’s united front about to go to war with the Demon Alliance, in your esteemed view, where do you think the first battle will occur? Where will Tiancha King’s first invasion target be?"
The Crown Prince of the Dichacha Clan said, "Isn’t that obvious? Of course, it will be your Rakshasa Tribe."
Then, the Crown Prince of the Dichacha Clan laughed heartily, "The Tiancha Tribe borders three major Demon Races, among which the cities of the Yun E Clan are all on mountains thousands of meters high. Our Dichacha Clan is the most powerful, so Tiancha King will surely target your Rakshasa Tribe first. But you needn’t worry, as the elite main force of our Demon Alliance has already been sent to your Rakshasa Tribe’s border."
The Little Rakshasa King bowed and said, "Brother speaks wisely, and I shall never forget your kindness. However, I still feel somewhat uneasy. What if the enemy attacks the Dichacha Clan’s border? What should be done then?"
The Crown Prince of the Dichacha Clan said, "You worry too much, brother. The border line between our Dichacha Clan and the Tiancha Tribe is only over a thousand miles, and I’ve already deployed nearly two hundred thousand troops. The defenses are as solid as a rock."
The Little Rakshasa King said, "Brother, you are wise. I have a thought that I’d like to share with you, if I may."
The Crown Prince of the Dichacha Clan laughed and said, "Feel free to speak, virtuous brother."
