Chapter 332: Chapter 108: Blood Sea Crazy Sword! Unrivaled in the World! (Please Subscribe)
Cheng Guang's feelings were very complicated at the moment.
Qin Beifeng had once been a member of Great Chu, and his former self was also the Crown Prince of Great Chu.
In a sense, they were on the same side.
Even though Cheng Guang wasn't particularly concerned about his previous identity, facing Qin Beifeng now, there was still a sense of frustration in his heart.
If Qin Beifeng knew that he was actually the last Crown Prince of Great Chu, who knows what he would think.
But at this moment, Cheng Guang couldn't reveal such things to Qin Beifeng.
Even if he did, Qin Beifeng wouldn't believe it.
After all, how could the illustrious Duke's son be the Crown Prince of Great Chu?
Cheng Guang felt helpless.
At this moment, Qin Beifeng's laughter was tinged with tears.
Perhaps there was sadness for his plans being seen through, or perhaps it was the pain from years of restraint.
Grasping Cheng Guang's shoulders, Qin Beifeng's smile relaxed, then he said, "Li Baxun, now that the Princely Heir is in my hands, stop interfering. Otherwise, even if I only kill the Princely Heir today, it will not be a loss for me."
"If you stop interfering and let my men open the city gates, perhaps this Princely Heir might have a slim chance of survival."
Upon hearing Qin Beifeng speak like this, Li Baxun first frowned slightly, then laughed dismissively.
"Old Qin, you're seriously underestimating the Duke. The Duke has arranged multiple life-saving measures around the here, even Sky-Man may not be able to hurt him, so how could you?

"Moreover, the importance of these city gates is clearer to you than to me. Once the gates are opened, and the layers of Demon Beasts outside infiltrate North City, it will no longer be just about the safety of the Princely Heir; the entire North City could be destroyed because of it."
Qin Beifeng's heroic features remained unchanged; he opened his mouth slightly, about to say something when he realized that a domineering gaze from above was falling upon him.
Qin Beifeng slightly raised his eyes, looking up into the sky and noticed Duke Zhen Guo, Cheng Shiyuan, who was battling two Devil Emperors.
Ever since Qin Beifeng had been momentarily outplayed by the Fire Dragon Devil King, Cheng Shiyuan had been keeping an eye on Qin Beifeng's actions.
If the Devil Emperor hadn't appeared suddenly, making him temporarily unable to extricate himself, he would have preferred to personally watch over Qin Beifeng.
When Cheng Guang entered Qin Beifeng's tent, Duke Zhen Guo, Cheng Shiyuan, acutely sensed something and, unable to extricate himself from the Devil Emperor's entanglement, he instructed Li Baxun to check on the situation, to cautiously deal with it and prevent any mishap to Cheng Guang.
Even though Cheng Guang had probably guessed Qin Beifeng's identity and suspected something was amiss, Qin Beifeng, after all, was a Ninth-grade Martial Emperor, not someone Cheng Guang could compare with.
Duke Zhen Guo, Cheng Shiyuan, couldn't help but worry.
The facts were just as he had expected, Qin Beifeng's injuries had recovered as before.
The process of recovery, although Duke Zhen Guo, Cheng Shiyuan, hadn't seen it himself, he could imagine that Qin Beifeng's healing methods were not weaker than the Everlasting Divine Power that Cheng Guang previously used to heal.
If it hadn't been for Cheng Guang's warning that Qin Beifeng might be a spy, Qin Beifeng might really have succeeded in not only opening the city gates but also capturing Cheng Guang as well.
Qin Beifeng didn't yet know how he would use Cheng Guang to threaten him.
Thinking this, Duke Zhen Guo, Cheng Shiyuan, frowned and looked at the current Qin Beifeng, then glanced at the two battling Devil Emperors.
"Beifeng, have you colluded with the Devil Beasts?"
As the Duke tasked with defending the border, who frequently contended with Devil Beasts devoid of humanity, he harbored not a shred of goodwill toward this foreign race.
For traitors within the Human Race that colluded with the Devil Clan, his disgust ran deep.
Duke Zhen Guo, Cheng Shiyuan, was somewhat reluctant to believe that Qin Beifeng truly was a spy within the Northern Expedition Army.
He was even more unwilling to believe that Qin Beifeng was actually one of the soldiers of Great Chu who had supposedly died in battle years ago.
Qin Beifeng's identity shocked Duke Zhen Guo, Cheng Shiyuan.
Simultaneously, he also roughly understood why Qin Beifeng, regardless of his prominent status within the Northern Expedition Army, would betray it.
However.
Duke Zhen Guo, Cheng Shiyuan, couldn't understand why Qin Beifeng would collude with Devil Beasts.
Once North City could not withstand the Devil Beasts' attack and was flooded with them, the consequences would not only affect him, the Duke of the State. It would extend to the tens of millions of humans living in the Border Area, the subjects of the empire.
The voice of Duke Zhen Guo, Cheng Shiyuan, wasn't loud, but it was clear enough for Qin Beifeng to hear.
Despite battling two Devil Emperors, Duke Zhen Guo, Cheng Shiyuan, still found time to talk to Qin Beifeng, his breathing steady.
It seemed that the two Devil Emperors had not exerted much pressure on him.
Qin Beifeng raised his eyes, watching the figure of the Duke fighting the Devil Emperors in the sky and shook his head.
"Duke, I certainly won't collude with Devil Beasts. I'm merely using them," he said.
"Using them to obliterate North City."
"Half of Great Zhou's people were once subjects of Great Chu; naturally, I will not target them. Rest assured, Duke, after North City is reduced to flat land, I have my ways to make the Devil Beasts retreat."
Qin Beifeng's tone was relaxed.
With what he said, it felt like Qin Beifeng was boasting immensely at that moment.
Qin Beifeng, merely a Ninth-order Martial Emperor, would find himself powerless if North City were truly obliterated and Duke Zhen Guo, Cheng Shiyuan, died on the spot under the pressure of the two Devil Emperors. How then, could he make the horde of Devil Beasts withdraw?
