Chapter 1478: Chapter 645: Shocking Catastrophe! Strangling Nai Shu?

Nai Shu ignored everyone’s puzzled gazes and rushed towards the castle on the mountaintop at the fastest speed.

Inside the castle, the Demon Banner Master was drinking and pouring himself sake.

He didn’t care at all about the battle two hundred miles away, because this great war was merely a game, an insignificant game.

It was merely a grand show to uphold the majesty of the Rakshasa Royal Family.

As for the result of the war? Is there any need to say it?

Is there even a slight possibility of losing?

In fact, the Demon Banner Master felt rather uneasy.

Ever since his son Nai Shu became engaged to Princess Sha Yan, he began to see himself as part of the Rakshasa Royal Family, subtly looking down on his Black Demon Family identity.

In his perspective, the weight of the Rakshasa Royal Family far surpassed that of the Black Demon Family!

This made him very unhappy, almost wanting to choose a different heir.

However, he couldn’t do that!

If he changed the heir, it would be a slap in the face to the Rakshasa Royal Family and a slap in the face to the great Rakshasa King.

Therefore, he could only subtly reprimand his slightly arrogant son.

“Bang!” With a loud noise, Nai Shu rushed in abruptly, kneeling directly before the Demon Banner Master, bowing his head and wailing, “Father!”

The Demon Banner Master trembled, frowned, and said, “What happened? The great war has ended. You should have leveled the Flame Demon Tribe to salvage our dignity, to give an account to Rakshasa City.”

At this moment, Nai Shu couldn’t hold back any longer, wailing: “Father, I lost, we lost!”

Hearing this, the Demon Banner Master’s hand trembled, and the wine cup fell to the ground.

The luxurious emerald wine cup shattered into pieces.

Then, the Demon Banner Master felt a buzzing in his head!

Everything outside seemed inaudible, everything around him suddenly seemed unreal.

This… this wasn’t just a bolt from the blue; it was an overturning nightmare.

After quite a while, the Demon Banner Master felt his body gradually regaining warmth.

Lost? How is that possible?

Even if a pig were the commander, it couldn’t lose!

His son Nai Shu, although very flamboyant, wasn’t a pig; on the contrary, he was quite exceptional.

After a long moment, the Demon Banner Master spoke coldly, “Stop joking with me . Even if a pig were fighting, it would win!”

Nai Shu coughed violently, spitting out a mouthful of blood once more, crying bitterly, “Father, it’s true… we really lost.”

“Is your brain flooded? How could you possibly lose?” The Demon Banner Master staggered, saying: “You have an army of a million; what does Lanling have? Wasn’t his Flame Demon Tribe destroyed by three Chimera Beasts? Weren’t his Centaur reinforcements already slaughtered? Didn’t you use tricks to cause a Centaur civil war?”

Nai Shu cried out: “That cunning dog Lanling used some trick to make the three Chimera Beasts his mounts. Chiyen Khan was supposed to lead over twenty thousand Centaur Allied Army to destroy the Xie Li Tribe, to destroy Lanling. But… but Lanling somehow managed to make all Centaurs recognize him as lord; all Centaur Tribes are now loyal to him. This time, he brought an army of thirty thousand Centaurs!”

The Demon Banner Master gasped.

He was all too aware of how powerful an army of thirty thousand Centaurs was.

“Even if Lanling had an army of thirty thousand Centaurs, they would mutually annihilate with the two thousand Mammoth Army—how could you lose?” the Demon Banner Master asked, “Did the Mammoth Army betray the contract and retreat without a fight?”

Hearing this, Nai Shu couldn’t hold back any longer, nearly crying out: “No, the Mammoth Army had transformed into a killing mode, charging frantically. But… Lanling performed some sorcery, shooting an arrow that emitted light, faster than lightning. The Mammoth Army wasn’t affected at first when hit, but after a few seconds, they fell dead one after another!”

It was at this moment that the Demon Banner Master realized his million-strong army had indeed suffered a great defeat, causing his mind to reel with dizziness. The source of this content ɪs novęlfire.net

“Then, don’t you have three thousand five hundred from the Sky Legion?” the Demon Banner Master asked.

Nai Shu said, “Lanling’s archery is incredibly amazing. His three Chimera Beasts spewed fire frenziedly, detonating the fish oil bombs on our griffins. So… our Sky Legion was nearly completely annihilated.”

The Demon Banner Master felt a tumult in his chest and rasped, “Then, what about the 1,200,000-strong army you led?”

Nai Shu said, “Those two thousand damned Mammoth Giants, after falling, became a huge wall. The Centaur Army hid behind this giant wall of Mammoth corpses, shooting arrows from above, killing frenziedly. When… when I ran back, it was a complete one-sided massacre; our army suffered innumerable casualties!”

“And then… you, you just ran?” the Demon Banner Master roared.

Nai Shu replied, “If I didn’t run in time, once we fell into Lanling’s hands, it would be a massive humiliation for our Black Demon Family!”

The Demon Banner Master could no longer contain himself and spat out a mouthful of fresh blood.

This foolish son of his—if he hadn’t run, there was still a glimmer of hope in the battle. Once the Rakshasa Tribe’s army entered a bloodthirsty state, they were fearless. If they could breach the wall made of Mammoth corpses, the tide of the battle would change entirely; even if they couldn’t win in the end, they could still inflict massive losses on the Centaur Army.

In this way, the Demon Banner Master could regroup tens of thousands of troops and possibly overturn the entire battle, possibly wiping out the Flame Demon Tribe.

With Lanling’s escape, those tens of thousands of Black Demon Banner troops, who were fighting desperately, would feel deceived and betrayed, unable to find a reason to continue fighting, and their morale would instantly collapse.

At that time, not only would they suffer a crushing defeat, but the Centaur Army’s casualties would also be negligible.

This foolish son, Nai Shu, ran indeed at the critical moment when the battle’s balance was about to shift, when the Centaur Army was about to suffer heavy losses. His actions led to the entire battle’s collapse!

The Demon Banner Master spat out another mouthful of blood, by now any words failed to adequately describe his inner anger and disappointment!

He suddenly reached out with a large hand, grabbing Nai Shu by the throat, roaring furiously, “You rebellious son, you’re guilty of a thousand deaths; I’ll kill you, I’ll kill you!”

He used all his strength, wanting to strangle his own son, Nai Shu, to death!
