The revelation about the true strength of the six royal clans sent waves of realization through Qin Huai's mind. It wasn't just the might of a three-king alliance. The real powerhouses, the genuine kings, were now in the game.
"How many kings are in these six royal clans?" Qin Huai questioned, echoing his concern about the strength of these families that seemed inexhaustible.
The Purple Flame King began explaining, "Fiendish demons have lifespans much longer than humans. The visceral prefecture realm experts of these families live for a thousand years, while kings survive for one and a half. And after forsaking our true forms, our longevity diminished. Once, we could have lived for two to three thousand years."
He continued, "With such vast lifespans, the number of kings among us has naturally multiplied. But many chose to hide when they realized attaining true emperor was hopeless, hoping to delay their death.
