He was so persuasive that he actually practiced extraordinary

He knelt three times in one step and then fell to the ground.

"My lord, I am here to see you. Blood Shadow clone, I am here to see you!"

"Get up."

Zhang Beixing waved his hand with no expression on his face.

"Do you know why I came to you?"

The Blood Shadow clone was slightly stunned when he heard this.

"My lord, are you going to punish Blood Shadow?"

"Haha, it seems you have some self-awareness."

Zhang Beixing sneered and didn't take it seriously.

"I asked you to come here for another purpose."

"But before that, I want to ask you something."

"Why did you want to assassinate me?"

Upon hearing this, the Blood Shadow clone couldn't help but tremble.

He didn't expect that Zhang Beixing would bring up the old matter again.

For a time, there was a dilemma.

"My Lord, please forgive me. Blood Shadow made a huge mistake because of my momentary confusion."

"Please, my lord, spare my life."

He kowtowed repeatedly, his voice trembling.

"Even if I spare your life, it depends on your sincerity."

Zhang Beixing glanced at him coldly and spoke indifferently.

"My Great Zhou is now in a turbulent time."

"There are treacherous people within and powerful enemies outside."

"We need talented people to assist you."

"If you can help me put down the rebellion and clear the obstacles."

"I will definitely live up to your high expectations and make you king!"

Upon hearing this, the Blood Shadow clone couldn't help but take a breath.

The emperor is going to entrust him with such an important task?
How can ordinary people enjoy such an honor?
"My Lord, Blood Shadow is terrified."

"Forget it, you and I only have one life."

Zhang Beixing waved his hand and said impatiently.

"I want you to help me kill them all."

"When the time comes, any military merits will belong to you."

"If you can help me unify the world, promotion to a higher position will be just around the corner!"

"I will follow the master's instructions and pledge my loyalty till death!"

The Blood Shadow clone was so excited that he was shaking all over and kowtowed repeatedly.

Zhang Beixing nodded with satisfaction, his eyes deep.

"This time, Hongjun wants to launch a surprise attack on the capital."

"I want to see what kind of trouble he can make!"

At the same time, ten miles outside the city.

The demon army is approaching the imperial city in a mighty force.

The leader was none other than the insidious and cunning Hongjun!

"Zhang Beixing, your death is imminent!"

Hongjun laughed loudly towards the sky, his voice ethereal and distant.

"Today, I will let you know the consequences of offending me!"

However, just as the army was about to attack the imperial city.

There was a sudden earth-shattering explosion.

Smoke and dust were billowing, and the ground was in a mess.

Before Hongjun could react, he saw a dark shadow approaching.

"Zhang Beixing, prepare to die!"

The man suddenly attacked with his five fingers like hooks.

He went straight for Hongjun's throat and grabbed it fiercely.

Hongjun was horrified and quickly mobilized his spiritual power to resist.

But it was too late.

There was a dull sound and blood splattered.

Five fingers clamped tightly around his throat.

"Who are you!"

Hongjun squeezed out a few words with difficulty, his eyes wide open.

"I am the Blood Shadow clone."

The visitor smiled coldly, his tone contemptuous.

"I am here on the orders of my lord to take your life!"

"Zhang Zhang goes north!!!"

Hongjun roared, his eyes bloodshot.

If he hadn't been strangled, he would have pounced on him and cut him into pieces.

"Haha, Zhang Beixing, that's someone you can't afford to offend."

The blood shadow clone sneered, his eyes full of disdain.

"It's an honor for you to let me personally take action."

"How dare you, a mere ant, act so presumptuously in front of the Lord?"

"I really don't know how to live or die!"

Before he finished speaking, the strength in his hands suddenly increased.

Hongjun only felt a huge force that instantly submerged his whole body.

With a crisp sound, the cervical vertebra was broken.

Blood gushed out wildly, and no sound could be heard anymore.

"Heh, Zhang Beixing, I'm not done with you!"

Before his death, there was still a flicker of unwillingness and resentment in Hongjun's eyes.

But soon, it turned into a cold corpse.

No more anger.

"My lord, something terrible has happened!"

At this moment, a burst of rapid footsteps came.

Richard and Elena arrived at some point.

When they saw the scene before them, they were all horrified.

"Blood Shadow, you...how dare you act on your own?"

Elena was so shocked that she almost fainted.

The king of demons died at the hands of an assassin?
Such treason is unheard of!

The Blood Shadow clone didn't care about it, but seemed relaxed and contented.

"How can we doubt the Lord's order?"

"Besides, this old guy is just a waste."

"It's not a pity to kill him."

After saying this, he kicked Hongjun contemptuously.

The body rolled to the ground, and there was no sound.

Richard and Elena just felt their scalps tingling.

I didn’t expect that this blood shadow clone would be so bold and presumptuous!

But on second thought, he seemed to understand something.

It seems that all this was within the lord's plan.

"Forget it, let's discuss this matter later."

Richard suppressed his doubts and made a prompt decision.

"The most urgent task now is to report back to the Lord as soon as possible."

"Hongjun is dead, and the demon race must be leaderless."

"If we don't attack now, when will we attack?"

"Richard is right."

Elena nodded in agreement, murderously.

"Our army should seize the opportunity to pursue the victory and destroy those demons and monsters in one fell swoop!"

After saying that, the two of them whipped their horses at full speed and galloped towards the direction of the palace.

The blood shadow clone followed closely behind, like a black lightning.

When the news reached the palace, the whole court was shocked.

Countless dignitaries were filled with excitement.

"The Lord is wise and powerful, and can predict the enemy's arrival thousands of miles away!"

"With the Lord in charge, what do we have to fear?"

I was afraid that if I was negligent, I would lose my head.

Zhang Beixing sat on the dragon throne with a calm expression.

It was as if all this had been anticipated.

"My dear ministers, there is no need to say more."

He waved his hand lightly, but it made a loud sound.

"After Hongjun's death, the demon clan has become scattered sand."

"All you need to do is sit back and watch the fight."

Everyone looked at each other, at a loss.

Wouldn't it be an easy win for the demons if they were to sit back and watch the demons kill each other?
And what glory can a mere bystander have?

But since it is the master's decree, how dare I disobey it?

I had to keep silent and dared not express any objection.

"My lord, Blood Shadow is here to see you."

Just when all the officials were full of doubts, a figure knelt down quietly.

It was none other than the mysterious assassin!

This time I returned to Beijing, my mission was accomplished.

"No gift."

Zhang Beixing spoke calmly, without any disturbance.

"Did you discover any clues when you killed Hongjun this time?"

"My Lord, please understand that although Hongjun is dead, his followers have not been destroyed."

The Blood Shadow clone bowed and spoke in a respectful tone.

"As far as Xueying knows, Hongjun has a capable assistant named Luosha."

"This person is very cunning and his cultivation is even higher than Hongjun's."

"If we leave it alone, I'm afraid it will sow the seeds of disaster for the Great Zhou."

After hearing this, Zhang Beixing frowned.

After hesitating for a long time, he slowly spoke.

"Rakshasa is indeed a remarkable figure." He stood with his hands behind his back, looking unfathomable.

"Go and find out for yourself. Make sure you find his weakness."

"When the time comes, I will have my own way to capture you."

"As ordered."

The blood shadow clone took the order and turned to leave.

He walked in a hurry and disappeared into the night.

But inside the hall, there was a solemn atmosphere.

All the officials looked at the resolute figure and couldn't help but feel awe.

I didn't expect that the emperor would be so meticulous.

Even a deeply hidden enemy can be calculated.

This kind of foresight is extremely wise.

"My dear ministers, don't worry too much."

Seeing the different expressions of the ministers, Zhang Beixing smiled.

It seemed as if everything was under control, calm and unhurried.

"Although the Rakshasa is difficult to deal with, it is just a spent force."

"With the power of our Great Zhou, we are not afraid of it."

He stood with his hands behind his back, looking dignified.

"The top priority right now is to stabilize the country's foundation and appease the people."

"Only in this way can we be invincible."

The emperor and his subjects are of one mind, as is the whole country.

They were all very excited by these words.

The Lord is worthy of being the true Dragon Emperor, with a far-sighted vision.

With him in charge, what is impossible?
[Host, not bad. This time you have made a thorough plan, which really impressed me. ]

[Although Hongjun is dead, the game of chess is not over yet. ]

[Right now, we should treat Rakshasa as our primary enemy, and we must not underestimate the enemy.]

Zhang Beixing's face darkened when he heard this.

Although we are sure of victory, we must not take it lightly.

What's more, this fight is far from over.

It is still uncertain who will have the last laugh.

He bowed respectfully and with sincere emotion.

"This Luosha must be a cruel and ruthless person."

"If you want to get rid of it quickly, you need to plan ahead."

After saying that, he left with his hands behind his back.

No longer pay attention to the surprise and admiration behind you.

This battle still has a long way to go.

At the same time, in a dark alley somewhere in the capital.

A ghostly figure seemed to blend into the night.

His eyes glowed red and his face looked ferocious.

It exudes a frightening evil aura.

"That useless Hongjun is actually dead?"

The visitor spoke coldly, his voice ethereal and distant.

"Zhang Beixing, you damned boy."

"I'm not done with you yet!"

However, at this moment, no one had thought of it.

The gears of fate have been turning quietly.

Out of nowhere, a huge change broke out.

No one can predict it, and no one can stop it.

A few days passed in the blink of an eye.

Above the court hall, hundreds of officials gathered.

Although Hongjun is dead, the demons have been active during this period.

The repeated provocation of disputes on the border made everyone in the court uneasy.

"My lord, if this continues, our army will be in trouble."

Richard paced back and forth anxiously, sweat beading on his forehead.

"Rakshasa, this sneaky guy, is so difficult to deal with."

"If we don't take action now, we will be doomed to failure!"

"My lord is wise and far-sighted."

Elena nodded repeatedly with admiration on her face.

"You have seen through Rakshasa's ambitions long before he made a move."

"But he keeps provoking us again and again. He is simply courting his own death!"

However, faced with their anxiety and worries.

Zhang Beixing just smiled faintly.

There was a flash of cold light in his eyes, which disappeared in an instant.

No one knows what he is planning.

"Rakshasa is indeed not an easy person to deal with."

He muttered to himself in an inaudible voice.

It seems like a sigh, and also like admiration.

After a long moment, he let out a soft sigh.

"Call the Blood Shadow Clone here."

"I want to see what news he brings back."

Soon, a black-robed figure quietly appeared.

It was not someone else, but the notorious killer!
"My lord, please forgive me. Blood Shadow has failed in his mission."

He looked terrified, but met Zhang Beixing's gaze fearlessly.

"Rakshasa is full of tricks. Blood Shadow was careless for a moment and was discovered by him."

"If I hadn't escaped by chance, I would have died."

There was a lot of discussion among the civil and military officials.

"Dare to follow the demon leader, this blood shadow clone is really reckless!"

"It is said that assassins also value integrity and honor."

"Moreover, he is the master's confidant. How can we give up so easily before the mission is completed?"

For a moment, countless disdainful and contemptuous glances were directed at the blood shadow clone.

But this person didn't seem to care at all, instead he held his head high.

There was a burning desire in his eyes, and he vowed to wash away the shame.

"My lord, please understand! Although Blood Shadow failed, he did not gain nothing!"

He suddenly spoke loudly, attracting everyone's attention.

He stretched out his right hand, and in the palm of his hand, there was a jade pendant.

Crystal clear, emitting a faint halo.

"This is Luosha's personal item. It must have a lot to do with his cultivation."

"Xueying risked his life to steal it, just to ask the lord to show me how to crack it!"

As soon as he finished speaking, the whole hall fell silent.

Everyone held their breath, waiting for the king's decision.

Zhang Beixing remained unmoved and just looked at the jade pendant slowly.

The eyes are deep and unfathomable, making one unpredictable.

After a long time, he suddenly raised his head.

The corners of his mouth slightly raised, and he actually smiled.

"Blood Shadow, you did a great job."

He spoke softly, his tone calm and calm.

"Although you nearly lost your life this time, the fact that you were able to obtain this item shows your loyalty."

"I won't treat you unfairly."

Upon hearing this, the Blood Shadow clone was overjoyed.

He immediately knelt down and kowtowed, shouting "Long live the king".

But soon, his face froze.

Because the next moment, Zhang Beixing suddenly took action.

His five fingers were like hooks, crushing the jade pendant into pieces.

The debris flew everywhere and turned into tiny specks of dust.

Everyone was shocked and didn't know what was going on.

Xueying looked even more confused.

The opportunity that I finally got is ruined just like that?
My lord, what do you mean?

Looking at the stunned expressions of the officials, Zhang Beixing smiled.

Laughing loudly to the sky, unrestrained and flamboyant.

"My dear ministers, don't be surprised."

"How can a Rakshasa be trapped by such an ordinary creature?"

It turned out that he had long seen that the jade pendant was just a decoy.

It's totally insignificant and nothing to be afraid of.

You think you can hide this little trick from the world?

It's just wishful thinking and overestimating one's own abilities!
"Blood Shadow, please listen to me."

Zhang Beixing suddenly said seriously, his eyes sharp as a torch.

"You were careless this time and fell into the enemy's trap."

"If I hadn't been lucky, I would have died without a burial place."

Upon hearing this, the Blood Shadow clone felt extremely ashamed.

He kowtowed repeatedly, begging for forgiveness.

"My lord, please forgive me! Blood Shadow was so stupid that he almost ruined everything!"

"Please, my lord, give me a chance to atone for my sins!"

"Oh, well said."

Zhang Beixing sneered and suddenly raised his hand.

I saw a golden light all around him rising slowly.

He was like a god descending from heaven, extremely arrogant.

"Since you are so sincere, I will grant your wish."

"From now on, every move of Rakshasa will fall into your eyes."

"If there is any disturbance, report it immediately."

"I want to see how long he can keep playing!" (End of this chapter)
