He was so persuasive that he actually practiced extraordinary

Those sharp eyes seemed to be able to see through the thoughts of everyone present, leaving nothing unseen.

Everyone was frightened by the gaze and lowered their heads, fearing that they would be stared at.

No one knows what they mean in the eyes of this peerless hero.

"My dear ministers, this operation is of vital importance and cannot afford any mistakes."

Zhang Beixing said in a deep voice, his tone leaving no room for doubt.

"If anything goes wrong, I'll take your heads with me!"

Although his voice was not loud, it revealed a chilling pressure.

Upon hearing this, all the civil and military officials in the court were terrified and nodded in agreement.

I was afraid that if I slacked off even a little, I would lose my head.

Richard and Elena, however, looked calm and showed no fear.

They knew very well that their lord's words were only to boost morale and he did not really want to kill innocent people.

"My lord is wise! With you in charge, what do we have to fear?"

Richard is full of ambition and fighting spirit.

Elena also frowned, with murderous intent in her eyes.

"The great cause of the lord cannot be obstructed by anyone!"

"Not bad!"

Zhang Beixing nodded with satisfaction, his lips slightly raised.

With these two strong generals and the help of the persuasion system, is there anything impossible for him?
"Everyone, please listen to me."

He slowly walked down from the throne and stood with his hands behind his back.

There was golden light flowing around his body, emitting an unparalleled domineering aura.

"This time we are destroying the demon clan to eliminate harm for the people."

"Anyone who harbors dissenting ideas and obstructs military operations will be killed without mercy!"

As soon as these words were spoken, all the ministers bowed their heads in agreement, with happy expressions on their faces.

In their hearts, they admired this wise ruler with all their heart.

"My lord is wise! How can we be worthy of serving you?"

"I will devote myself to the cause until my death!"

Amid the roar of the mountains and the sea, the emperor and his subjects were all delighted.

Zhang Beixing nodded slightly, but his eyes became more determined.

Of all things in the world, trying to stop a chariot with a mantis arm is the greatest folly.

A mere demon dares to act so rampant in front of him?
I really don't know how to live or die!

Soon, all preparations were ready.

Richard led his three elite armies and set out in a mighty force.

Elena was also wearing silver armor and looked murderous.

Zhang Beixing stood on the high platform, looking at the dark mass of people, a sneer appeared on the corner of his mouth.

He knew that he was one step closer to achieving hegemony.

[The host has such a plan, which really makes me look at it with new eyes. 】

At this moment, the voice of the persuasion system sounded again.

[This is a smart move, but please proceed with caution.]

[He is too deeply possessed by the devil. I am afraid he will go crazy. 】

"Hahaha, possessed by a demon?"

Zhang Beixing, however, laughed loudly and unrestrainedly towards the sky.

"I have practiced cultivation for a lifetime. How often have I ever been afraid of anything?"

"If he really wants to be possessed by a demon, it's because of me, Zhang Beixing, who is arrogant and proud!"

At this moment, no one doubted that he could really do it.

Because he is supposed to be such a person who looks down on the world.

Three days later, outside Zhongzhou City.

A man in a black robe was standing on the top of the cliff.

Looking from a distance, it looks like a motionless statue.

Suddenly, his eyes shot open.

Two rays of light seemed to pierce through the sky.

"Zhang Beixing, you really took the bait!"

The man smiled grimly, with endless madness in his eyes.

"You are just a mere mortal, how dare you show off your skills in front of me?"

"It's simply a matter of life and death!"

After saying this, he waved his sleeves.

It instantly turned into a black light and disappeared into the sky.

At the same time, in the Great Zhou military camp.

Countless soldiers are training and their morale is high.

Waves of shouting echoed between the valleys.

It seems to break through the sky and reach the heavens.

Elena's silver armor was majestic and her eyes were as sharp as torches.

He is personally supervising the battle and dares not slack off at all.

"My lord is wise and powerful, we will do our best to fulfill our mission!"

Richard is also full of fighting spirit and confidence.

However, no one had ever thought of it.

This bloody storm came so quickly.

"what--!!!"

Just as everyone was on high alert, a shrill scream suddenly rang out in the military camp.

Immediately afterwards, countless dark shadows suddenly appeared.

They came like a tide, leaving corpses everywhere in their path.

"There is an enemy attack! Everyone, be careful!"

Elena's face changed color and she quickly drew her sword to defend herself.

But even though she was known as the Vampire Princess, she could not stop the surging army of demons.

In the blink of an eye, they were surrounded.

"Quick! Tell the lord that the enemy is attacking! Our army is in danger!"

Richard threw the command arrow and shouted at the top of his lungs.

But before he could finish, he was knocked to the ground by a dark shadow.

In an instant, blood was gushing out and he was no longer able to struggle.

"Hahahaha, Zhang Beixing, you finally fell into my trap!"

An ethereal voice suddenly sounded on the battlefield.

But then a black light flashed, and the man with white hair and a youthful face walked slowly towards them.

It’s the king of the demons!

“Hong Hongjun?!”

Elena's pupils shrank, and she was inexplicably horrified.

"You set this bloody trap?"

"You old bastard, I'm going to fight you!"

After saying that, she gritted her teeth and rushed forward with sword in hand.

I vow to fight this sinister villain to the death.

However, the next moment, a scene that shocked everyone appeared.

Hongjun just stretched out a hand.

The five fingers were like hooks, pinching lightly.

Elena only felt a strong force coming, and her whole body froze instantly.

"Pfft!"

Blood splattered everywhere and she didn't even have time to scream.

He was crushed into a pool of minced meat alive!
"How is this possible?"

Richard's eyes widened in disbelief and he trembled all over.

But Hongjun smiled grimly and turned around slowly.

"Haha, Zhang Beixing, your two confidants are nothing but this."

"Next, it's your turn!"

As the words fell to the ground, all the demons wailed.

Countless demonic energy spread out, covering the entire battlefield.

At the same time, Zhang Beixing, who was far away in the capital, suddenly looked up.

His face darkened and murderous intent was revealed.

"Oh no! We've been ambushed!"

He realized something was wrong at the first moment.

But soon, he regained his composure.

There was even a hint of sneer at the corner of his mouth.

"Hongjun, you old thing, you are really so vulnerable."

"Do you really think that I am a lamb to be slaughtered?"

The next moment, he suddenly attacked.

A golden light shone in the palm of his hand, and the shadow of a sun appeared.

"Break it for me!"

A loud shout shook the earth.

The next moment, countless golden light beams burst out from his palms.

Wherever it passed, the mountains and rivers changed color and the grass and trees burned.

In the blink of an eye, he was already on the battlefield.

It collided head-on with the monstrous demonic energy.

boom!
The earth-shattering collision exploded again.

A terrifying gust of wind swept across the area.

Everyone was knocked to the ground by the impact.

Only Zhang Beixing remained unmoved.

Standing with hands behind his back, looking superior.

"Hongjun, do you know your guilt?"

His voice, like thunder, exploded over the battlefield.

"Do you think that a mere conspiracy can trap me?"

"It's just wishful thinking!"

Before he finished speaking, he suddenly slapped out with his palm. The palm wind was as sharp as a knife, revealing its edge.

He went straight for Hongjun's face, vowing to chop him off with his palm!
"stop!"

At the critical moment, an ethereal voice suddenly sounded in the void.

Immediately afterwards, an old man with white hair and beard suddenly appeared.

Standing between Zhang Beixing and Hongjun!
It’s not someone else, it’s the system that listens to advice!
"Predecessors"

When he saw this person, Zhang Beixing's pupils shrank.

He quickly withdrew his hand and bowed respectfully.

But the murderous intent in his eyes remained unchanged.

[Host, you still need to be cautious in this battle. ]

The persuasion system spoke solemnly with a grim tone.

[Although Hongjun is insidious and cunning, his cultivation should not be underestimated.]

[If we fight head-on, I'm afraid it will be very dangerous. ]

These words undoubtedly dealt a heavy blow to Zhang Beixing.

Yes, even if you have the ability to know everything, you should not be too arrogant.

What's more, today's enemies are no match for ordinary monsters.

"Thank you for your guidance, Senior. I will keep it in mind."

Zhang Beixing accepted the advice humbly and nodded repeatedly.

The murderous intent between his brows gradually faded away.

"Hongjun, for the sake of senior."

"I'll let you go this time."

"But remember, this won't happen again!"

He stood with his hands behind his back, his tone cold.

When Hongjun heard this, his face turned pale.

"Zhang Beixing, aren't you too arrogant?"

"With your little ability, you dare to act so presumptuous in front of me?"

“I really don’t know the heights of the world!”

"Oh, you are just a sinister villain, how dare you speak so arrogantly?"

Zhang Beixing sneered disdainfully and was too lazy to say anything more.

He just glanced at Hongjun coldly and left without looking back.

Ignore the demons behind you who are showing off their power.

"Lord!"

In the distance, Richard and Elena came over.

When they saw that Zhang Beixing was safe and sound, they were both overjoyed.

He rolled over and knelt on the ground, tears filling his eyes.

"I am an incompetent subordinate, and I almost ruined my lord's cause."

Elena's voice was choked with sobs, full of apology.

"Elena, Richard, both of you get up."

Zhang Beixing waved his hand and didn't mind.

In his opinion, this ambush was just expected.

Instead, it allowed him to see the strengths and weaknesses of the demons clearly.

"This old fellow Hongjun is more difficult to deal with than I thought."

His eyes were deep and he remained silent.

And at this moment, whether it was the persuasion system or the two people beside him.

Everyone can feel the overwhelming and domineering aura emanating from Zhang Beixing.

That is the confidence of a truly strong person.

It is a kind of arrogance that no one in the world can match.

It is destined to be a king who will achieve great things!
"My Lord, we are willing to go through fire and water for you, without hesitation!"

Richard and Elena shouted in unison, their fighting spirit high.

Life and death, honor and disgrace all depend on the lord's thoughts.

"it is good!"

Zhang Beixing looked up to the sky and roared, full of pride.

"Hongjun, we have a long way to go in this battle!"

"Just wait and watch me sweep away the demons and bring peace to the world!"

The words fell to the ground with a resounding sound.

However, it made the blood of all the civil and military officials in the court boil.

Taking this opportunity, all the generals gathered around.

Everyone rushed to make contributions to their lord.

[Host, you have to think carefully. ]

The voice of the persuasion system sounded in my mind again.

[This battle may be extremely dangerous.]

[But you can rest assured that I am here. ]

Zhang Beixing felt warm in his heart when he heard this.

I am extremely grateful to this mentor.

With his assistance, there are also these loyal ministers.

What is impossible for me?
"Pass the order down, and order all units to be on high alert."

"If there is any trace of the demons, kill them without mercy!"

"Richard, Elena, follow me back to the palace."

"I want to discuss with you how to repel the enemy."

He left with his hands behind his back, his dragon robe fluttering.

Zhang Beixing's figure disappeared in the crowd, causing countless discussions among his subjects.

Some people marvel at his bravery, some admire his wisdom, and some are in awe of his ambition.

However, for Zhang Beixing himself, all this is just the necessary path for him to reach the top.

He knew that he was shouldering the responsibility of changing the world and must not back down at this critical moment.

"My lord, the demons are so powerful, do we really have a chance of winning?"

After returning to the palace, Elena couldn't help but ask about the doubts in her heart.

As a vampire princess, she is well aware of the horror of the demons.

They were an ancient and powerful race, possessing powers that were unimaginable to ordinary people.

"Elena, you underestimate me."

Zhang Beixing, however, raised the corner of his mouth slightly and looked confident.

"The demons are nothing but ants in my eyes."

"I want to let them know that this world is no longer theirs to control."

After saying this, he stood with his hands behind his back, his eyes sharp.

It seems that we have seen the dawn of victory.

Richard was also full of fighting spirit when he heard this.

"My lord is wise! With your skills, what do we have to fear?"

"good."

Zhang Beixing nodded with a firm tone.

"This battle concerns the survival of our Great Zhou."

"We must not retreat, we must give the demons a loud slap in the face!"

[Host, that being said, please remember not to be careless. ]

[Although the demons are vulnerable, there may be other forces behind them ready to make a move. ]

[You and I both need to take a long-term view in order to be invincible. ]

"I see."

Zhang Beixing nodded slightly, but his eyes became more determined.

Just as the system said, this battle is probably not as simple as it seems.

But no matter what, he will move forward bravely and never retreat.

Because he knew that behind him was not just a prosperous Zhou Dynasty.

It is also the yearning and expectation of countless ordinary people for a better life.

He must not let them down!

The next morning, the square outside the palace was bustling with people.

Countless ministers and soldiers gathered here, ready to go.

Zhang Beixing stood on the high platform, wearing a dragon robe and looking extraordinary.

He looked around with a sharp gaze.

"My dear ministers, today's battle is related to the rise and fall of our Great Zhou."

"If anyone dares to retreat, I will be the first to take his head!"

Although his voice was not loud, every word he spoke was sonorous and powerful.

Everyone in the audience was in awe.

"My Lord, I am willing to sacrifice my life for you and swear my loyalty till death!"

Someone shouted loudly, and then thousands of people echoed in unison.

"My lord is wise! We are willing to go through fire and water for you, without hesitation!"

"Please, my lord, guide us forward!"

Amid the thunderous shouts, Zhang Beixing's lips curled up slightly.

Looking around, his eyes became more determined.

At this moment, a respectful voice suddenly sounded in my ears.

"My lord, a spy reports that the demon army is forming a battle array outside the capital and may launch an attack at any time!"

As soon as he finished speaking, the whole audience burst into an uproar.

Countless soldiers had expressions of fear on their faces.

However, what no one expected was.

Zhang Beixing was not at all panicked. Instead, he burst into laughter.

"Hahaha, good time!"

He looked up to the sky and roared with great pride.

"Hongjun, this old bastard, can't wait to die!"

"Alright, I want to see what magical powers this demon has!"

After saying this, he strode towards the city gate. (End of this chapter)
