"Teacher, the strategy on the Human-Demon Battlefield can no longer be carried out. The sacrifices have been enormous, yet no results have appeared. The noble lords are deeply resentful." Demon Emperor Ami Hao looked somewhat anxious. The pressure brought by those dissatisfied noble lords was simply too great.
"I know." Prophet Demon Master Jiu Xi nodded.
Seeing how calm Prophet Demon Master Jiu Xi remained, Demon Emperor Ami Hao could not help growing more anxious. "Prophet, what exactly is going on with the grand formation beneath Blood River Military City on the Human-Demon Battlefield? Why has it not been triggered after all this time?"
"Is that important?"
Prophet Demon Master Jiu Xi glanced indifferently at Demon Emperor Ami Hao and pushed a cup of steaming Spirit Tea before him.
After the warm Spirit Tea entered his stomach, Demon Emperor Ami Hao's anxiety suddenly eased considerably. Only then did Prophet Demon Master Jiu Xi speak again.
"Hasn't Your Majesty the Demon Emperor always been committed to weakening the power of the lords within our territory, intending to restore the ancestral system?
"Now is precisely the time to weaken the private forces of those noble lords. Before the tide of the times, those who refuse to comply shall be crushed outright!"
"But the problem is that over this past month, the main battle legions, the forces of our Demon God Palace, and the royal forces have suffered few losses. That is why those noble lords have such great objections. The front lines are already becoming difficult to suppress.
"Moreover, although there is supposedly a grand strategy in place, we have actually suffered more defeats than victories this past month. The morale and fighting spirit at the front have reached a critical point. If nothing changes, the troops may collapse at any moment."
