Bai Ze quickly added the follow-up.
"The Human Race is organizing their legions and is ready to attack the Demon Court."
"We no longer have enough time to pursue the defection of those demon soldiers..."
"Nor do we have time to pursue the hundreds of races among the myriad races that have defected!"
Upon hearing that the Human Race was about to attack the Demon Court, Di Jun's eyes, besides madness, flashed with a deep fear.
But then, this fear was forcibly suppressed, and the madness in Di Jun's eyes subsided considerably.
Silence again.
After a period of silence.
Di Jun spoke:
"Bai Ze, what you said is not wrong."
"There is not enough time."
"However, I am still the Lord of the Demon Court, and the Lord of the Myriad Races."
"There is one thing that must be done."
"Bai Ze, tell me, is there a large number of demons fleeing from the Southern Heavenly Gate?"
Bai Ze was a little stunned.
He was still wondering how the Emperor had guessed it.
Then he directly said, "Your Majesty, yes."
"A large number of demons are currently fleeing from the Southern Heavenly Gate."
"And the demon general guarding the Southern Heavenly Gate, that late-stage Taiyi Golden Immortal demon general specifically used to guard the gate..."
"Is collecting a large number of heavenly treasures, elixirs, and acquired spiritual treasures from the fleeing demons..."
"Those fleeing demons are bribing this demon general so that he will not report upwards..."
Bai Ze revealed everything.
Di Jun's anger returned.
"That demon general guarding the gate, I promoted him specifically to guard the gate of my Demon Court!"
"His cultivation of late-stage Taiyi, allowing him to guard the gate, is already a great favor!"
"He actually dared to accept bribes behind my back! To let a large number of demons escape privately! To desert before the battle!"
Di Jun thought of the demon general guarding the gate who had intercepted many loyal demons reporting the true situation of the Human Race, and who would often send informants to prison on fabricated charges, and immediately became furious.
"This demon, I will absolutely not spare his life!"
"If it weren't for him concealing the truth, doing things that spread rumors, and sending all those demons who knew the truth to prison. When reporting, he claimed he was refuting rumors."
"How could I not know the true situation of the Human Race?"
"How could I not know that the quasi-emperor of the Heaven-Shielding Method is comparable to a quasi-saint great divine ability, and the Heaven-Shielding Great Emperor is already comparable to a saint!"
"I was deceived by him for so long, and I always thought that the Heaven-Shielding Great Emperor was not even as good as an Earth Immortal!"
Di Jun roared with a distorted face.
"The Demon Court has always been deceived by the Human Race, like a fool. The tens of billions of demons from the myriad races, yet they did not discover the growth of the Human Race."
"Now, the Human Race must be treating all of us high-ranking demons as idiots, but only I know that all of this is the fault of that guarding demon general!"
"My Demon Court was harmed by this guarding demon general!"
"Ruining the hegemony of my Demon Court!"
"A sinner for eternity!"
"He is a sinner of the Demon Court!"
"Bai Ze!"
Upon hearing the order, Bai Ze stepped forward.
Di Jun's voice came.
"To pacify internal strife before dealing with external enemies."
"Even if the Human Race is about to attack, we must first punish the sinners of the Demon Court before the Demon Court can regain its cohesion."
"The sinner must die!"
"Pass down my decree, the guarding demon general, has disregarded the imperial grace, has deceived the superiors and deceived the inferiors, and has harmed loyal subjects."
"Causing my Demon Court to fail to discover the growth of the Human Race, he is truly the number one sinner for eternity!"
"Tear him limb from limb for me!"
Hearing this, Bai Ze felt a surge of exasperation in his heart.
This move directly shifted all the blame for the Demon Court's defeat onto a guarding demon general. As expected of the Demon Emperor.
He was truly skilled at shifting responsibility.
"Pacifying internal strife before dealing with external enemies"? "Cohesion"?
It was merely迁怒 (qiannù - transferring anger) and venting personal grievances that was the truth.
Feeling the immense pressure from the Human Race, almost to the point of despair, he was venting his stress onto the demon general.
As a wise man, Bai Ze instantly analyzed the underlying meaning of Di Jun's order.
But he said nothing.
Instead, he said, "Your subordinate obeys the decree."
And then retreated.
The madness in Di Jun's eyes gradually receded.
He muttered:
"I still have over two hundred demon gods, and seven great demon saints."
"I can also wake up my second brother, Tai Yi, who is in seclusion, and have him fight with the Eastern Emperor Bell, a congenital supreme treasure."
"I still have the Zhou Tian Star Dou Array! It can exert the power of a quasi-saint!"
"The Demon Court has not yet been defeated!"
"I am not dead yet!"
"As long as it is this day, I am still the Lord of the Myriad Races! The supreme deity revered by all races! A top mythical figure!"
"You rebels... dare to sneak away! Dare to defect from the Demon Court! Dare not participate in the decisive battle between the Human Race and the Demon Race later..."
"I must, as the Lord of the Myriad Races, sentence you to death! Sentence you to death!"
"How can I allow you petty individuals to trample on the majesty of the supreme Demon Court..."
Di Jun clenched his fists.
He, who had used the power of the Lord of the Myriad Races, the Lord of the Supreme Demon Court.
Enjoying this feeling of wielding supreme authority, being able to execute any race or any demon in the Demon Court at any time.
Finally, he cast aside the deep fear of the Human Race from the depths of his heart.
His expression gradually recovered from the shock of the deaths of the three great demon saints and the demon master Kunpeng.
He seemed to have regained his former wise and mighty appearance.
Looking at the numerous demon gods and demon saints bowing their heads.
Di Jun, feigning confidence, spoke as if he could deal with the Human Race:
"The Human Race is extremely strong, even stronger than the Wu Clan. "
"In the previous war, we underestimated the Human Race."
"Now, we must mobilize the full might of the Demon Court."
"Qing Qiu Demon God, go and inform the Eastern Emperor. With my token, open his seclusion chamber and interrupt his seclusion."
"Tell him that the Demon Court is about to fight a great battle, which will be even more difficult than the battle when the Twelve Heavenly Gods and Demons Array and the Pangu True Body condensed by the Twelve Ancestral Witches attacked my Demon Court, and the enemy is even more powerful."
After Di Jun finished speaking, below, a nine-tailed fox demon god received the order and left.
Heading towards the seclusion chamber of Donghuang Taiyi.
Donghuang Taiyi, the strongest combatant of the Demon Court, was truly at the peak of the quasi-saint realm, the great circle of the quasi-saint realm.
No matter how he was called.
In any case, he had reached the extreme on the path of a quasi-saint, and every small step forward was extremely difficult.
Donghuang Taiyi had been in seclusion for ten Yuanhui, a full million years, trying to break through to the legendary quasi-saint realm.
Breaking through to the quasi-saint realm without the merit of the Heavenly Dao.
This was also why Di Jun did not wake up Donghuang Taiyi during the second great battle against the Human Race.
It was precisely because he was afraid of disturbing Donghuang Taiyi's seclusion, causing him to miss his opportunity to break through to the quasi-saint realm and emerge from seclusion in frustration.
