Who Made Him an Antagonist

422: Chapter 422 A Tough Nut to CrackKnock, knock—

Just at this moment, a rapid knocking sounded outside the room.

Qin Ge frowned slightly and patted Shi Yuan’s little head.

Gulp!

Shi Yuan looked up, subconsciously swallowed a mouthful of saliva, and asked in confusion, ”What is it?”

Qin Ge shook his head, told Shi Yuan to stay put, and then said calmly, ”Come in.”

Bang—

Yun Qing kicked open the door, which was embedded with titanium alloy plates.

Her small fists were clenched tight, as if she had come to catch someone cheating.

Seeing Qin Ge and Shi Yuan sitting properly on the bed, her irritable mood improved significantly.

Her clenched fists also relaxed accordingly.

”What’s wrong?”

Qin Ge asked suspiciously.

Yun Qing organized her thoughts for a moment and said with a very serious expression, ”The Barbarians have been defeated!”

”They were soundly defeated by the Nightmare Demon Clan, fled back to the plane where the Barbarians reside in a sorry state, and suffered heavy casualties!”

To prevent Qin Ge and Shi Yuan from not believing her, Yun Qing asserted, ”I witnessed it with my own eyes!”

Although her magic power had not yet recovered, making it impossible for her to participate in the frontal battlefield.

That did not mean she could not stay in the Barbarian plane to monitor whether the Barbarians had truly ’launched an all-out attack’.

Upon seeing the size of the Barbarian army, even Yun Qing was amazed.

You must know that the Barbarians are different from the Demon Race.

As long as members of this race reach adulthood, they possess the strength of a high-level Ability User of the power type.

Moreover, they can to a certain extent be immune to magic of other types.

Millions of Barbarians, each comparable to a high-level Ability User, attacked the Nightmare Demon Clan as an entire race.

Even she felt that the Nightmare Demon Clan was in imminent danger.

However, the reality was that the Barbarians were soundly defeated!

They retreated to the plane of the Nightmare Demon Clan with heavy casualties!

”Impossible!”

”This is absolutely impossible!”

”The Lord of the Nightmare Demons of the Nightmare Demon Clan has long since gone silent, and it is rumored that it is highly likely he has already fallen!”

”Not to mention that it is impossible for the Lord of the Nightmare Demons to participate in the war, even if he did appear, that would only be one more God Realm existence! And my Barbarians have over twenty-three Demigod Realm individuals alone!”

”How could the Nightmare Demon Clan possibly be a match for my Barbarians!”

Shi Yuan shook her head, her gaze filled with certainty.

She was unwilling to believe Yun Qing’s one-sided story.

She was not blindly arrogant.

Even less would she let the Barbarians go to their own deaths.

The reason she did not participate in the war was that she felt the Barbarians alone were enough to crush the Nightmare Demon Clan.

How could the Barbarians possibly be no match for the Nightmare Demon Clan?

And even suffer heavy casualties in defeat!?

”Don’t you have personal guards?”

”Didn’t you say that those personal guards can communicate with you even when you are on Blue Star?”

”Did they not send back any news?”

Qin Ge looked at Shi Yuan with a strange expression.

He did not think Yun Qing was lying.

After all, such a lie would be easily exposed!

Shi Yuan shook her head and said with a strange expression, ”I have not received any messages from my personal guards.”

”Ever since the Barbarians launched their attack on the Nightmare Demon Clan, there has been no news sent back.”

She paused, looked at Qin Ge, and said, ”However, I still have a dedicated magic user who can summon her here for communication!”

Hoo—

Qin Ge slowly exhaled a breath of clear air, stood up and dressed properly, then nodded faintly and said, ”Let her come over!”

A quarter of an hour later,

In the living room of Yunding Manor.

A teleportation magic channel appeared.

From within the channel, an old woman over a hundred years old walked out, trembling as she held a crystal ball.

She knelt on the ground and bowed to Shi Yuan, saying, ”Greetings, Barbarian King.”

Immediately after, she bowed toward Yun Qing’s direction, ”Greetings, Lady Desire Demoness!”

”It is actually you!?”

Yun Qing looked at the old woman before her, recalling the past.

The old woman before her had once done a favor for the grandfather of the Magic World, so when she slaughtered her past enemies, she spared the old woman.

She did not expect that after the Magic World was destroyed, not only did this old woman not die.

Instead, she had defected to Shi Yuan!?

Shi Yuan glanced at Yun Qing, then looked at the old woman, and said with a sullen face, ”Desire Demoness says that my Barbarians have been defeated, lost to the Nightmare Demon Clan, retreated to the Barbarian plane, and suffered heavy casualties!?”

The old woman nodded without any hesitation, ”What Lady Desire Demoness said is true, I report to the Barbarian King, our Barbarians truly returned in a crushing defeat!”

”How is this possible!?”

Shi Yuan clenched her small fists, and an earthy-yellow halo began to oscillate.

In her fury, even the entire Yunding Manor was shrouded in a terrifying aura.

It was as if in the next second, she would raze Yunding Manor to the ground.

”Did my personal guards betray me!?” Shi Yuan’s expression was full of rage.

The old woman shook her head, ”It was not a betrayal; those seven personal guards of yours all died in battle without exception!”

”Furthermore, among the Barbarians, several Barbarian warriors at the Demigod Realm also died in the plane of the Nightmare Demon Clan!”

”All the Barbarian warriors fought without fear; it was only when I saw the situation was in imminent danger that I activated the teleportation magic prepared in advance to bring the remaining Barbarian warriors back!”

Shi Yuan said unhappily in a deep voice, ”Who told you to act on your own authority?”

”The Barbarians have always kept their word!”

”In a war between two races, casualties on both sides are normal!”

”I have already promised Qin Ge that I would eradicate the Nightmare Demon Clan for him. You acted on your own authority to withdraw the Barbarian warriors—are you trying to make me lose credibility in front of others!?”

The old woman kowtowed in fear, ”This old servant would not dare. Barbarian King, you may not know, but although we did not see the figure of the Lord of the Nightmare Demons during this great battle, this time, three God Realm powerhouses actually appeared within the Nightmare Demon Clan!”

”If our Barbarians had continued to fight to the death, in the end, we would all have died in the plane of the Nightmare Demon Clan!”

The old woman was filled with fear and hurriedly explained.

The Barbarians might be brainless.

But they are truly protective of their own!

She did not want the Barbarians, who held a decent status, to be so easily wiped out, allowing other races to occupy the nest.

Hearing this, Yun Qing’s beautiful eyes were filled with shock, ”Three God Realm powerhouses!?”

”The plane of the Nightmare Demon Clan has no way to sustain the birth of three God Realm individuals.”

”In other words, even if the Lord of the Nightmare Demons appeared, there must be at least two other planes standing in the same camp as the Nightmare Demon Clan!?”

Shi Yuan clenched her small fists, ”Regardless, the Barbarians cannot break their word to others! Even if the fighting Barbarians are decimated, we, the Barbarians, must not recklessly retreat!”

She turned her head to look at Qin Ge and said firmly, ”Don’t worry, I will absolutely not go back on what I promised you!”

”I will return to the Barbarians right now and attack the Nightmare Demon Clan again!”

”I want to see which two planes dare to collude together and break the rules to attack my Barbarians!”

”Wait.” Qin Ge reached out, stopped Shi Yuan, shook his head, and said, ”Do not act rashly for now. Even if you are the Lord of the Barbarians, it is impossible for you to contend against three God Realm powerhouses by yourself.”

”Moreover, the ones who didn’t follow the rules first were not the Nightmare Demon Clan, but us!”

Although Shi Yuan was vastly different from the Barbarians in terms of physique and appearance.

But in the end, a portion of Barbarian blood flowed through Shi Yuan’s body.

Even if there were no muscles in her little head.

It was not much different from having a one-track mind.

Besides using brute force to suppress others, it was still using brute force to suppress others.

”When did I ever not follow the rules!?”

”I didn’t even participate in the battle personally!”

Shi Yuan said indignantly with annoyance.

Qin Ge exhaled a breath of turbid air and said with a sigh, ”This is not something people will believe just because you say it.”
