Chapter 1059 - 1008-1009 - s - Demon Race Reform, Demon Emperor and Demon God Fusion
As a staunch supporter of the Lion Emperor, she naturally considered the Lion Emperor’s interests, and if the Lion Emperor could consolidate the Demon Race and become its true ruler, then she too would rise in status.
Following the initiative of the Peacock King, two True Immortal Demon Kings spoke up, and since the rest already harbored the notion, they were not overly resistant to the idea at this time.
The Rat King, an old fossil of the Demon Race, chose this moment to speak, "The situation between Heaven and Earth is unpredictable, and the human race is approaching with overwhelming force, as if determined to eradicate our Demon Race. Thus, our Demon Race must also respond. At such a critical juncture, we hope that Your Majesty takes up the responsibility of our Demon Race’s sovereign."
As an ancient figure within the Demon Race, the Rat King held a pivotal position; many of the Demon Kings and True Immortals present had grown up under his protection.
With him speaking out, the other Demon Kings and True Immortals expressed their agreement in turn, with even the Celestial Ape King being no exception.
Of course, due to his current state of being suppressed physically, the Monkey King’s status in the Demon Race had also declined, leaving him no choice but to acquiesce even if he opposed.
"Please, Your Majesty, in this time of crisis, take up the heavy burden of our Demon Race, and spare our countless children from tribulation," urged numerous True Immortal Demon Kings together.
This act of consent from all True Immortal Demon Kings of the Demon Race to construct the Demon Summoning Banner signified the first step of the Lion Emperor’s plan, his first step towards becoming the true ruler of the Demon Race.
It was a small concession from many Demon Immortals, but regardless, it was a favorable start for the Lion Emperor, a successful beginning.
"Since everyone here acknowledges me as your emperor, then with your gracious support, I will not decline the role. For the countless children of our Demon Race, as its sovereign, it is my undeniable duty to shoulder this responsibility," stated the Lion Emperor as he rose to his feet, his face solemn and expression earnest, "I hereby promise everyone here that I will not compromise with the human race, we will fight to the end, and for our Demon Race, I will give my last drop of blood."
