Rebirth of a Villainess Chapter 81

"Demon Lord Zhurong!"

The heavy steel dark doors that led to the throne room of the demon lord was swung open by two of the soldiers that stood outside the door . Hearing the announcement made by the armored demon soldiers made the rest that waited inside to bow in greeting to their King .

There was not a single soldier whose head wasn't lowered in greeting . As he walked through their mist, the red robes the demon lord wore changed to the dark color of the demon people . Gone was the red and gold crown which was replaced to that of the royal house of Hei .

Demon Lord Zhurong went straight to where his royal chair was and sat on it, facing his men who were still bowing to him .

"You may all raise your head . "

They all lifted their head to look at the demon lord, whose face remained aan impassive mask . Among the soldiers that stood in line on opposite sides of the palace room, there was one whose presence commanded fear almost as much as the demon lord . He stood at the head the line facing the left side of the demon lord's seat

"Yes, General Hei?!"

The demon soldier that was referred to as General hei stepped forward and gave a bow to Demon Lord Zhurong .

"Demon Lord Zhurong, preparation to attack WuYangChen is almost complete, but we have now lost the advantage of a surprise attack, now that the other sects including the WuYangChen sect is already aware of our plan to invade them . They are now more on their guard and could also be getting ready to declare war on us . "

Hei Zhurong looked at his general, whose face revealed nothing of what was going on in his mind, in truth he also thought that going after the other sects would be unwise, since they now knew that he had taken down many cultivation sects .

Knowing that it was foolhardy to progress with his plan was a thing that he as the demon lord must decide on, because that would determine how fit he was as a ruler to his people . Backing down may be seen as a sign of weakness, although from the looks of things, his general did not want to engage in an meaningless battle if it meant that the enemy already knew of their plans .

"I've heard you General Hei, you may return to your place . "

The demon soldier bowed once again and went back to stand with the rest of the soldiers .

"Where is Ying Ta?!"

The demon that was referred to as Ying Ta, was one of the spies under the demon lord, that scouted other cultivation sects, providing the demon lord with all the things he knew from being around them .

The demon soldier stepped forward from where he stood at the end of the line facing those of General Hei . He was one of those with chameleon-like abilities to blend in wherever he was sent to, unlike those from the demon realm that couldn't be around those from the pugilistic world, his bloodline made him unaffected by what was considered poison from being around spirit energy of a cultivator . Making it possible for him to live in both realms with ease .
