"Report! Urgent report for the Queen! A heavenly fire has occurred in the Beast Clan, and they have gathered an army of one hundred thousand demon beasts at the border. The Behemoth Prince of the Beast Clan is personally leading a delegation to seek help and will arrive in the Demon Capital in three days."
"Help! This is clearly an attempt to annex our Demon Clan! They are simply not putting this king in their eyes."
"Queen, after the rebellion of the War Demon Emperor, our clan's strength has greatly diminished. We can no longer confront the Beast Clan head-on. We are no match for them at this time. Please reconsider, Queen."
"Pass the decree: Immediately summon the chiefs of all tribes for a meeting. Anyone who does not come will be thrown into the Ten Thousand Demons Cave!"
...
At this moment, in a not-so-luxurious courtyard within the Demon Capital Palace.
Lei Yang was lying under a pavilion, basking in the sun. He was puzzled about how he, a handsome model, had transmigrated into the body of a simple-minded, muscular second prince.
But what puzzled Lei Yang the most was that he was not human.
You read that right, he was actually a member of the royal Blood Demon Clan.
Before he transmigrated, his foolish predecessor had accidentally obtained evidence that the War Demon King had framed the Crown Prince for rebellion, which further strained their already tense relationship.
The Crown Prince wanted to eliminate him at all costs, and Lei Yang had to find a way to resolve this issue.
While Lei Yang was worrying about this, he vaguely heard a few demon guards whispering about something.
Focusing his mind, he heard them muttering,
"This brute, he lost a bet with the Crown Prince yesterday and got thoroughly humiliated. He even got slapped in the face by the Crown Prince in public. Does this guy have a brain?"
"A brain is a good thing, but unfortunately, our second prince doesn't have one."
"Hahaha."
Another guard quickly covered the mouth of the one speaking.
"Keep your voice down, don't let him hear you."
"What are you afraid of? Didn't the Crown Prince say he's an accomplice of the War Demon King? At this rate, he's not far from death."
"Keep your voice down. After all, he's still a prince. If he hears us, we'll be in trouble. I still want to marry a few more concubines."
"I heard a few beautiful demonesses have arrived at the Spring Demon Courtyard. Their skills are not bad. How about we try them out tonight..."

Although they were guards, their words were full of disdain for their master.
The second prince was the child of the Queen and a male prostitute. After the Blood Demon Clan elders found out about the Queen's affair, they ordered the execution of the second prince's father.
Unexpectedly, after the execution, the Queen became pregnant.
Since the child carried the Blood Demon Clan's bloodline, the Queen had to give birth to him.
Lei Yang had no foundation in the clan. The elders, who had already killed his father, feared he would seek revenge when he grew up, so they all supported the Crown Prince.
Hearing their conversation, Lei Yang began to think.
Without a foundation in the royal family, he decided to leave this place of trouble. But where to go?
Lei Yang had already made up his mind: the border. Yes, the border.
Although he was a model in his previous life, he was also a military enthusiast. He knew everything about Sun Tzu's Art of War, the Thirty-Six Stratagems, and modern warfare.
Lei Yang had no doubt about his ability to command a war.
As long as he held military power, his Queen mother would have to look at his face.
Then, he could drag his elder brother to the city gate, strip him, and hang him up for a beating.
That would be satisfying.
Lei Yang nodded to himself, making up his mind.
Since he had made a decision, he decided to act immediately. Lei Yang got up and planned to see his Queen mother.
At this moment, he heard the guards at the door.
"Greetings, Crown Prince."
Seeing Lei Yin, the two guards quickly knelt down to salute.
Unlike Lei Yang, Lei Yin's father was a clan elder of the Blood Demon Clan. If not for Lei Yin's lack of talent, he would have been the crown prince long ago.
Now, with the crown prince undecided, Lei Yin had the highest chance.
Lei Yin smiled lightly.
"Hehe! You two take good care of the second prince. Don't let him go to any dangerous places to avoid any accidents."
Clearly, Lei Yin's words had a hidden meaning. The two guards nodded repeatedly.
"Yes, Crown Prince."
Seeing their understanding, Lei Yin said nothing more and walked straight to Lei Yang.
"Second brother, why don't you greet your elder brother? Are you still angry about yesterday's beating?"
If it weren't for just transmigrating and not understanding the rules of this world, how could he have let this guy succeed yesterday?
Just wait, when I hold military power, I'll strip you and hang you up for a beating.
Lei Yang cursed inwardly, rubbing his head and smiling foolishly, "Hehe, I, Lei Yang, accept my loss. Whether it's to my elder brother or a dog from the Beast Clan, I have no complaints if I lose a bet."
Hearing Lei Yang's response, Lei Yin was slightly stunned.
Yesterday's slap seemed to have made this fool smarter.
He was indirectly insulting him, comparing him, the dignified Crown Prince of the Demon Clan, to the lowest dog of the Beast Clan.
"Second brother, your elder brother is doing this for your own good. I want you to become smarter and share the burden for our mother."
I don't believe you. You're very cunning.
"Should I thank you, elder brother?"
Lei Yang imitated Lei Yin's tone.
Lei Yin felt something was off with Lei Yang's words but couldn't pinpoint it.
He couldn't imagine that his once foolish second brother was now mimicking his way of speaking.
Lei Yin couldn't figure it out, possibly due to preconceived notions.
"You should indeed thank me. Elder brother is doing this for your own good, to make you smarter. Understand?"
Lei Yang chuckled, "I don't understand."
"I knew you wouldn't understand, you fool."
"If you understood, people wouldn't call you the second fool."
Lei Yin despised his brother, glancing at him with a smile, "The War Demon King rebelled, and his concubine secretly fled to you. Did she give you anything? If you don't hand it over, you'll be considered an accomplice of the War Demon King!"
Damn, this is a blatant threat.
Lei Yin always used this to threaten his predecessor, but it had no effect. Eventually, he poisoned him to death, giving Lei Yang the chance to transmigrate.
If my foolish predecessor wasn't afraid of you, why should I be?
