Chapter 518: Disloyalty
When Zhang Beixing heard Chigui's proposal, a hint of amusement flashed in his eyes.

This great general of the demon clan actually has some courage and vision.

How dare you, at this critical moment, offer yourself to him and want to form an alliance with him to create hegemony?
Ha, interesting.

However, is a mere demon clan worthy of being on equal footing with his Dark Empire?

What a big joke!
"General Chigui is wrong."

Zhang Beixing spoke calmly, his tone cold.

"Do you know that my goal is to unify the three realms and rule the world?"

"How can a mere demon stand shoulder to shoulder with me?"

"not to mention"

The corners of his lips curled slightly, and his eyes were as sharp as a knife.

"The murderer of my late emperor is still at large. I have not yet settled the score with him."

As soon as these words were spoken, the atmosphere in the hall suddenly became solemn.

Everyone knows that the bloody coup d'état ten years ago was manipulated by the demons behind the scenes.

Now that Zhang Beixing has brought up the old matter again, it is obvious that he is going to launch a military campaign to hold him accountable.

"Lord, calm down! Those are all old matters, why bring them up again?"

Chigui's forehead was covered with cold sweat, and he quickly smiled.

He didn't expect that the other party would reveal his past in such an occasion.

"I came here with all my heart, to make peace with you, my Lord."

"My Lord, please forgive me!"

As he said this, he was about to kneel down and apologize.

However, Zhang Beixing just sneered and didn't buy it at all.

"Red Ghost, you are underestimating me too much, aren't you?"

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

"You think you can erase the blood feud of the past ten years with just an apology?"

"If it weren't for the fact that you're a guest, I would kill you right now!"

There was murderous intent in his words.

It seemed as if the uninvited guest would be eaten alive in the next second.

"My Lord is wise. This Red Devil has ulterior motives!"

Elena snorted coldly, her beautiful eyes full of contempt.

She couldn't stand people who said sweet words but had treacherous hearts.

"That's right. He must want to take advantage of the fact that our army has just destroyed the Church and has not yet recovered its strength to cut off the source of our troubles!"

Richard was also indignant and wanted to rush forward and tear the red ghost into pieces.

Seeing this, the red ghost knew it was useless to pretend.

He simply straightened up, a sly smile appearing on the corner of his mouth.

"Haha, you are worthy of being the Dark Emperor. You really have a keen eye."

He stared at Zhang Beixing with burning eyes.

"But do you think that with your current strength, you can deal with my clan?"

"Don't forget, your father died at the hands of the demons."

"You are probably not that strong now, right?"

As soon as this statement came out, the whole place was in an uproar.

How dare this red devil bring up his sad past in front of Zhang Beixing?
And in such a contemptuous and provocative tone?

I am simply tired of living!
However, to everyone's surprise.

Instead of getting furious, Zhang Beixing burst into laughter.

It was as if I had heard a huge joke.

"Red Ghost, I thought you were a big shot, but you are nothing more than this."

He glanced coldly at the demon envoy, his eyes full of disdain.

"With your limited skills, you dare to show off in front of me?"

"Well, I'll let you see it today."

Before he finished speaking, he suddenly stretched out his right hand.

His five fingers were like hooks, going straight for the red ghost's throat.

The speed was so fast that he arrived in front of the other person in almost the blink of an eye.

"Pfft!"

Blood splattered and the red ghost screamed.

He was lifted up by Zhang Beixing, rolling his eyes and unable to make a sound.

This scene made everyone present gasp and feel great fear in their hearts.

Is this the strength of the Lord?

Even the famous demon warriors are just toys in his hands?
"Red Ghost, I gave you a chance."

Zhang Beixing spoke coldly, without reducing the strength in his hands at all.

"You are the one who doesn't know what's good for you. You insist on provoking me."

"Now, you have to pay the price."

After saying that, he flicked his wrist violently.

Click!

The sound of bones breaking instantly resounded throughout the hall.

The red ghost's neck bones were shattered and he was silent.

Zhang Beixing casually threw the corpse aside, stood with his hands behind his back, looking calm and composed.

It seemed as if everything that just happened was just a simple game.

"My Lord, you are so amazing."

Richard was dumbfounded and speechless for a moment.

Although he had long known that his master was extremely powerful, he was still shocked when he saw it with his own eyes.

"As expected of my Lord, your words are as good as gold, and you always keep your promises."

Elena slightly parted her red lips, her eyes moving.

My admiration for Zhang Beixing is beyond words.

"Everyone, this is just the beginning."

Zhang Beixing looked around, his face calm, yet revealing an air of arrogance that looked down upon the world.

"I, Zhang Beixing, never fear any enemy."

"If they dare to stand in my way, I will kill them without a burial place!"

When the ministers heard this, they were all overwhelmed with emotion.

With such a fearless king, what else do they have to fear?

"My Lord, we are wise! We are willing to sacrifice our lives for you and die on the battlefield!"

"I swear to follow my master till death, destroy the demons, and unify the three realms!"

"The Dark Empire will last forever! Long live the Lord!"

For a moment, the atmosphere in the hall was enthusiastic and morale was high.

Zhang Beixing raised the corners of his lips slightly, and was very satisfied with the scene.

With these loyal subordinates, he was one step closer to his goal of conquering the world.

[Host, you are really amazing. You actually dared to kill the demon messenger in public. ]

The persuasion system suddenly sounded in my mind, with a slightly teasing tone.

[This is an open declaration of war against the demons. I'm afraid a bloody storm is inevitable.]

The curve of Zhang Beixing's mouth couldn't help but widen a little more.

"It doesn't matter. I'm expecting them to come and die."

"With Angel Wings and Soul Eater in my hands, who would I be afraid of?"

"What's more, with you, my most powerful helper, by my side, what do I have to fear?"

Zhang Beixing has a firm look in his eyes and high morale.

[Haha, with your words, I feel relieved. ]

After hearing the advice, the system laughed three times and was very pleased with the disciple's awareness.

[Then let's wait and see the reaction of the demons. ]

[I want to see what other tricks they can come up with.]

When the news reached the Demon Clan's royal city, it immediately caused an uproar among the upper echelons.

"What? The Red Devil was killed in public by Zhang Beixing?!"

In the demon clan’s hall, all the ministers had livid faces.

Everyone knows what this means.

"This is simply a naked provocation!"

"The master was killed, the special envoy died, and that lunatic Zhang Beixing clearly wants to fight to the death with my clan!"

"Asshole, this is outrageous! How can our demon race endure such a great humiliation?!"

For a time, the crowd was outraged and everyone was filled with righteous indignation.

It seemed as if the next moment, he would rush out of the hall and fight a decisive battle with the Dark Empire.

"Shut up, everyone!"

At this moment, a cold voice suddenly exploded in the hall.

But a man with a gloomy face appeared in the hall at some point.

It is the new Demon King, Talons!

"His Majesty!"

Upon seeing this, all the ministers immediately shut up and knelt down to pay their respects.

"No gift."

Talons nodded slightly, his face as cold as ice.

"This king already knows about this."

"Zhang Beixing, this kid, really doesn't know how to live or die."

"How dare a mere human being be so arrogant!"

He clenched his fists, and there was murderous intent all over his body.

"I will let him have a taste of my demon clan's power and cut him into pieces!"

"But Your Majesty, I'm afraid things are not that simple."

An elderly elder suddenly spoke.

"Now that Zhang Beixing has grown stronger and stronger, he has destroyed the Church in one fell swoop. I'm afraid his strength is no longer what it used to be."

"What's more, he has the mysterious 'Soul Eater' in his hands."

"If we rashly send out troops, I'm afraid it will be disastrous."

As soon as these words came out, all the ministers nodded, looking embarrassed. Talons's face also became more gloomy.

"So, old man, you mean for us to just keep silent about this?"

"Let that brat humiliate our clan and do nothing?"

The old elder sighed and looked sad.

"Your Majesty, calm down. That is not what I meant."

"But before we fight, we need to make a long-term plan."

"Don't act rashly on impulse."

"The most urgent task is to find out Zhang Beixing's background as soon as possible and identify his weaknesses."

"At the same time, our clan must also intensify their training and improve their strength."

"Only in this way can we be sure of victory in the future battle."

"You are absolutely right."

Talons pondered for a moment, and a gleam of light flashed in his eyes.

"Well, let's do as you say, old man."

"Pass the order down, order all units to step up preparations for war."

"But for now, we must remain silent and not act rashly."

"When the time is right, I will make sure that kid Zhang Beixing is dead without a burial place!"

Upon hearing this, all the ministers responded in unison.

They would do anything to avenge this humiliation.

Soon, the entire demon clan was immersed in the calm before the storm.

There is a hint of murderous intent in the air, ready to explode at any moment.

At the same time, in the territory of the Dark Night Clan.

Countless eyes were staring at a palace in front.

"Chief, are you okay?"

A maid asked tremblingly.

At this moment, Carlos was closing his eyes in deep thought, his face changing from gloomy to bright.

He has remained in this state ever since he learned the news that the demon envoy was killed.

It made everyone terrified and no one dared to disturb them easily.

"I am fine."

After a long while, Carlos finally spoke slowly.

"I was just wondering what ability Zhang Beixing has to be so arrogant."

"Even the demon clan's envoy dared to behead him in public"

Having said this, he suddenly opened his eyes, his gaze as sharp as lightning.

"It seems that this person is really not simple."

"Maybe, we should really re-examine him."

These words left the maid confused.

"What does the patriarch mean?"

"Go, pass the order."

Carlos pondered for a moment and gave his orders slowly.

"Order the scouts in the clan to find out the news about Zhang Beixing as soon as possible."

"We must get to the bottom of this matter and not make any mistakes."

"Yes, patriarch."

The maid obeyed the order respectfully and then hurried away.

In the hall, peace returned for a moment.

"Zhang Beixing, who are you?"

Carlos muttered to himself, his eyes unfathomable.

I have a vague feeling that the rise of this man will change the entire landscape of the continent.

And the fate of the Dark Night Clan will probably change because of him.

For a moment, countless thoughts swirled in his mind.

I couldn't calm down for a long time.

Inside the Dark Temple, there was an atmosphere of celebrating victory.

Envoys from various ethnic groups arrived one after another.

I would like to send my most sincere congratulations and blessings to Zhang Beixing.

"Congratulations, Your Majesty, on your great victory!"

"From now on, no one in the entire world will be able to compete with you!"

"Your Majesty, please accept this small token of our people's kindness."

Zhang Beixing sat upright on the throne, smiling, calmly accepting the worship of the crowd.

He looks amiable, but in fact he has a sharp gaze.

Secretly examining everyone's smile.

In their eyes, there was flattery, fear, and exploration.

But there is no joy that comes from the heart.

However, this was also within his expectations.

After all, his rise was too rapid.

For a time, it is inevitable to arouse suspicion.

"I am deeply grateful to you all for coming from afar."

Zhang Beixing spoke slowly, his voice low but majestic.

"After the banquet is over, I will visit you one by one to express my gratitude."

There was complete calmness and confidence in his words.

It was as if those people who coveted his power were just as small as ants.

The atmosphere in the hall suddenly froze.

Everyone bowed and did not dare to look up.

I just felt an invisible pressure coming towards me.

It gave them the chills.

"The banquet is cumbersome, why not let everyone experience my methods first."

Zhang Beixing smiled slightly, with a hint of amusement in his eyes.

"Have you ever heard of the story of 'The Yellow Millet Dream'?"

"A dream? What is that?"

Someone couldn't help but ask, but then realized his own impoliteness and quickly shut up.

"Oh, it seems you haven't heard of it."

Zhang Beixing didn't care, instead his smile deepened.

"Legend has it that there was a poor scholar named Lu Sheng who stayed overnight in an ancient temple."

"In the dream, he passed the imperial examination, married a beautiful, wealthy woman, became a prime minister, and enjoyed great glory."

"Unfortunately, when I woke up, the waiter next to me was still cooking yellow rice."

"It turns out that it was just a dream, illusory and illusory."

Everyone was confused when they heard this.

I don't understand why Zhang Beixing wants to tell this story at this time.

Could it be that he was implying that they were just people seeking fame and reputation?

For a moment, there was an uproar.

"Sir, what do you mean?"

A man who looked like an ambassador lost his temper and stepped forward to question.

"Are you mocking us for being nothing more than sycophants who are trying to curry favor with you?"

"Hahahaha!"

Zhang Beixing laughed loudly towards the sky, and his laughter echoed over the hall.

The laughter stopped abruptly and he suddenly opened his eyes.

A strange red light flickered in his pupils.

In an instant, everyone was stunned.

The world before my eyes began to distort and deform.

The dome, the pillars, the ground, all turned to dust.

Darkness and chaos seem to swallow everything.

"What is this?!"

Everyone was terrified and covered their eyes in pain.

"Don't panic, it's just a dream."

Zhang Beixing's voice seemed to come from the sky.

"Under my pupil technique, you are nothing but fish on the chopping board."

"I want you to see whatever I want you to see."

"From now on, everything about you is under my control!"

As soon as the words fell, everyone felt dizzy.

When I opened my eyes again, I found myself in ruins.

All around were broken walls and ruins, a desolate scene.

The sky was blood red as fire and covered with dark clouds.

"Where is this? What happened?"

Some people's lips trembled, unable to believe what they saw.

"Welcome to the world after the apocalypse."

Zhang Beixing's figure appeared out of nowhere in front of everyone.

At this moment, he was wearing silver armor and holding a long sword in his hand.

Behind it, a pair of white wings shine brightly.

"My angel wings can not only purify, but also destroy."

"This is what happens when you resist me."

"Once I unleash its power, everything you are proud of will be reduced to ashes."

"When the time comes, technology and force will be nothing but paper tigers in front of me."

When everyone heard this, they felt as if they were struck by lightning.
