Chapter 154 Heading to the Eastern Imperial City!

Upon hearing the last sentence, Hu Xiao finally understood why the Crown Prince had spoken so much to him.

So this is where they were waiting for me!

Hu Xiao fell silent, and the Crown Prince was not in a hurry, quietly waiting with the eldest princess.

He had heard about it from Niu Le before he spoke with Hu Xiao.

Niu Le had suggested that Hu Xiao move, but Hu Xiao refused.

It now appears that Tiger King City, where Tiger Roars once stood, must have been placed under some kind of formation by Tiger Roars.

That formation not only enhances Tiger Roar's strength, but also ensures the safety of Tiger King City.

It's normal that Hu Xiao doesn't want to leave.

Hu Xiao was also somewhat hesitant at this moment.

It must be said that the Crown Prince's words made a lot of sense.

Moreover, his wife and children were all in Donghuangcheng, so if he went to Donghuangcheng, he could reunite with his children.

But what about his subordinates?

Splash splash splash...

Just then, the Crown Prince personally poured Hu Xiao a cup of tea and handed it to him.

In the past, this would have been absolutely impossible.

However, Hu Xiao's identity is different now. Hu Xiao has made outstanding contributions in this war and has also inherited his father's legacy, which is enough to prove Hu Xiao's identity.

"Actually, your going to Donghuang City is for your safety."

"According to historical records, once the demon race is resurrected, it will definitely not be just this once."

"There will definitely be more in the future. With the demons rampaging, some smaller demon courts will inevitably be drawn into it."

"Your Tiger King City is located on the edge of the demon race's territory, and it is very likely to be attacked."

Hu Xiao's face immediately darkened upon hearing this.

This is also what he is worried about.

Unlike other demon courts, which would have already relocated, his Tiger King City is different. Protected by willow trees, its defenses far surpass those of ordinary demons.

"Do you know why the border between humans and demons is now located in this place?"

Upon hearing this, Hu Xiao raised his eyelids and looked at the Crown Prince with some confusion.

"Is there some explanation for this?"

The crown prince smiled faintly.

"You should have noticed something by now, whether it's the human race or the demon race."

"The closer to the border, the smaller the sect's influence and the lower the concentration of spiritual energy."

"And the deeper you go, the denser the spiritual energy becomes."

Tiger Roar nodded.

He had already discovered this before.

The spiritual energy between heaven and earth is so abundant.

Is there something wrong with this?

Seeing Hu Xiao's puzzled look, the eldest princess explained to the crown prince, "Hu Xiao, you may not know this, but tens of thousands of years ago, the concentration of spiritual energy in the world was the same everywhere."

"Everywhere you look, you can call it a paradise."

Tiger Roar's pupils widened slightly.

It's hard to imagine how many powerful demons and humans would have emerged back then if every place was a blessed land.

As if sensing Hu Xiao's confusion, the eldest princess continued, "And the reason it has become like this..."

"It's because a spatial rift appeared at the current boundary."

"And that spatial rift does not connect to our world, but to the demon race."

"The power they wield is incompatible with the spiritual energy of this world."

"Furthermore, they will assimilate spiritual energy, and once assimilated, neither humans nor demons can use it."

"Therefore, this results in the spiritual energy in that area being exceptionally thin."

Tiger Roar suddenly understood why the strength of both humans and demons at this border was so low.

"So, have you figured it out now?"

"I know you are in Tiger King City, and you have many subordinates. If you agree to come to Tiger King City with us..."

"I can give you an area to settle them in."

"But the Eastern Imperial City won't do; it must be outside the Eastern Imperial City."

Hu Xiao nodded; the Crown Prince and the Eldest Princess had already gone this far.

If I were to refuse again, I would be incredibly ungrateful.

Hu Xiao immediately stood up, cupped his hands in a fist salute.

"Then thank you very much, Your Highness the Crown Prince and the First Princess."

Seeing that Hu Xiao had agreed to the Crown Prince's request, he immediately nodded and smiled.

"You have made such a great contribution to the demon race."

"This is what you deserve."

"You should use this time to prepare."

"Now that my father has just passed away, there are still many things that I need to take care of."

"I need to return to Donghuang City first to take charge of the overall situation."

After saying this, the Crown Prince left the room with the Eldest Princess.

He summoned Niu Le, gave him a few instructions, and then led the princess away through the void.

After the Crown Prince and the Eldest Princess left, Niu Le immediately went to Hu Xiao's side.

"Brother Tiger Roar, if you become successful in the future, don't forget your brother here!"

He could now see that the former Demon Emperor had passed on his legacy to Hu Xiao, and that the future Demon Emperor, who was also the Crown Prince, valued Hu Xiao highly.

Therefore, Hu Xiao's future achievements will surely be limitless.

His status among the demon race will also become very important, and he may soon surpass that of the general.

"Hahaha!" Hu Xiao burst into laughter. "General Niu Le is joking."

Niu Le laughed and patted Hu Xiao on the shoulder.

"Alright, I won't bother you anymore. I have a lot of things to take care of here, and you probably have your own things to do too."

"We'll meet in Donghuang City in a few days."

He knew that Hu Xiao would definitely go to Donghuang City, after all, it was too dangerous outside.

"Alright, see you in Donghuang City." Hu Xiao cupped his hands in a fist salute, turned and left.

Batwing and Deer Star were resting in the place that Niu Le had arranged for them when they saw Tiger Roar arrive and immediately got up.

"Your Majesty."

Tiger Roar waved to them, signaling them to sit down.

"The war between their two races is over."

"And there's even worse news: the demons are about to rise again."

Batwing and Deer Star exchanged a glance, both of them unfamiliar with the demon race and somewhat bewildered.

Then, Hu Xiao briefly recounted what His Highness the Crown Prince had said to them, and Fu Yi and Lu Xing's eyes immediately lit up.

As for the demons, that's not something they can worry about with their current strength.

They only need to follow Tiger's Roar's orders.

"When are we going to Donghuang City?"

They had only ever heard of Donghuang City.

They were too far away to get there, and even if they did, they would have nowhere to stay.

However, now, they can follow Tiger Roar to the entire Eastern Demon Realm, a place that every demon yearns for.

He felt even more fortunate that he had chosen to follow Hu Xiao.

Otherwise, given their own strength, they probably would never be able to go to Donghuang City in their lifetime.

Hu Xiao said calmly, "Pack your things and go back to Tiger King City first. I'll come back to pick you up in a few days."

"Yes!" Batwing and Deer Star nodded in agreement without any hesitation.

He then immediately led his demon soldiers and generals back to Tiger King City, while Tiger Roar headed towards the Eastern Imperial City.
