Protect Our Clan Leader

Capítulo 2158: Chapter 235: Promoted to Crown Prince! Jingming Takes Off_3

Now that he had finally settled down and secured his own base, he naturally didn’t want to compromise himself any further.

But he never expected that the so-called “delicacies” that the Demonic Clan ate daily were actually this mediocre.

Although the meat was tender, the gamey taste wasn’t removed at all. With one bite, it even bled—was this meant for humans to eat?

It wasn’t even as good as the random barbecue he could whip up~

“Your Majesty, if you don’t like roasted Demon Sheep leg, there’s fresh Beito Beast over there, tender and juicy.” The Scarlet Demonic King was startled by Yun Xiayang’s reaction, his face pale as he held the thrown back demonic beast’s leg, speaking in a trembling voice, “I’ll get the best cook in the fortress right away…”

“Forget it, forget it~ I might as well do it myself~” Yun Xiayang waved his hand impatiently and casually took out a large bucket of [Wang Shouzhe’s Eighteen Spices] he got from Wang Fugui, instructing the Scarlet Demonic King to get a batch of Red Demon Shrimp.

However, his order left a group of demonic kings dumbfounded.

This, this thing can be eaten? This was food even the lowest-class laborers of the Demonic Clan refused to eat, considered garbage.

The demonic kings looked at each other, very suspicious that His Majesty, the Dragon Blood Demon God, intended to punish them by making them eat such trash.

However, their doubts vanished the moment the aroma started to spread.

In the training ground, a pot was set up. Following Yun Xiayang’s instructions, the Red Demon Shrimp was sprinkled with [Wang Shouzhe’s Eighteen Spices] and cooked simply, releasing a spicy, delicious aroma like no other.

The aroma was so overpowering that it made all the demonic kings swallow their saliva uncontrollably.

The last time Yun Xiayang ate this was at Wang Fugui’s place, and it had been quite a while since. Upon smelling the aroma, he couldn’t help but be enticed, and reached out to grab a shrimp as long as an arm from the pot, expertly peeling it and tasting it.

“Mmm~~ Not bad, not bad~~ Just the right taste!”

Yun Xiayang’s eyes lit up, and he immediately dragged a chair over, sitting by the pot and eagerly feasting, while also inviting the other demonic kings to try it.

This stuff, isn’t it way better than their trash “delicacies”?

The demonic kings were already drooling at this point, and they immediately gathered around, imitating Yun Xiayang’s way of peeling the shrimp.

These demonic kings were born and raised in the Demonic Realm, where had they ever tasted such stimulating food? For a time, they all ate with such enthusiasm, unwilling to raise their heads, licking even between their fingers clean.

A few of the less particular demonic kings found peeling shrimp too troublesome, so they just threw whole Red Demon Shrimp into their mouths, making a crunchy sound as they chewed, still enjoying it thoroughly.

For a moment, it was as if these demonic kings had opened the door to a new world, eating with unrestrained joy and satisfaction.

Yun Xiayang took out some fine wine to share with the demonic kings.

After this feast of Demon Shrimp, every demonic king was feeling utterly satisfied, feeling that their demonic lives were fulfilled, and even their loyalty began to soar.

Subsequently, Yun Xiayang took out a large batch of spoils and territories, distributing them according to the size of the Merit Points each demonic king had earned. As for the lords, that wasn’t his concern; the demonic kings themselves would distribute it to meritorious lords.

In past battles, other Demonic Gods would distribute rewards, but rarely would anyone take out so many spoils at once to distribute to their subordinates like Yun Xiayang, much less distribute them so cleanly and efficiently, without any procrastination. More importantly, it was all fair and impartial, with no favoritism.

This made the demonic kings’ loyalty surge once again, with each crying out to express their devotion to Yun Xiayang.

“Hahaha~ Rest assured, follow this Demonic God and there will be great benefits in the future.” Yun Xiayang patted his chest bravely, making a promise, and then added, “But now, it’s time for your test.”

“Your Majesty, just say the word and we’ll go through fire and water for you.” The demonic kings were filled with fiery zeal.

“This Demonic God wants to collect human captives, the more the better,” Yun Xiayang instructed.

“Your Majesty, what do you need human captives for? To eat?” asked one ferocious-looking demonic king, puzzled.

“Get lost!” Yun Xiayang kicked it flying, furiously scolding, “A bunch of fools! Our Dragon Blood Demon King’s Hall is newly established and in need of demonic hands. And now, there must be a large number of our Demonic Clan captives held by humans. By collecting human captives, we can exchange them for our clan members from the human side.”

“Does anyone not want more subordinates? Speak up now!”

“Your Majesty is wise!”

“All of you, get to work right away! Also, no eating humans, they are our resources! Anyone who dares to violate the ban, this Demonic God will eat them!”

“Yes, Your Majesty.”

With Yun Xiayang’s order, the eleven great demonic kings immediately deployed their methods to gather human captives.

Very soon, human captives were continuously sent to the Dragon Blood Demon God’s Unit, and then personally escorted by the unit to the vicinity of Base Xian No. 3, where they were continuously exchanged for demonic soldiers and generals from the human side.

As time went by, Yun Xiayang’s comprehensive strength grew day by day.

His ambitions were swelling, and he could no longer suppress his eagerness to make great achievements.

Miaomiao~ wait for me! Wait for me to make unparalleled achievements, and I will come back riding on rainbow clouds to marry you.
