”Looks like they’re really coming for you.”

Upon hearing Liu Fei’er’s words, Qin Tian immediately ordered, ”Kill without mercy.”

Five thousand troops surrounded a few hundred people.

These elite Demon Clan warriors, it must be said, were selected from the Forbidden Army, and each had formidable individual strength.

However, it was fortunate that Duan Xiaodao commanded the Qin Family Army from the side, ensuring that none of them could escape at this moment.

Yet, even so, after nearly an hour of fierce battle, only twelve were captured, while the rest were all killed.

On Qin Tian’s side, the cost was more than a hundred dead and over two hundred wounded.

”Heh, it seems Yin Yue Demon Venerate is determined to eliminate you. He’s clearly very apprehensive about your presence, so he wants to remove you as soon as possible.”

Qin Tian said to Liu Fei’er, ”This indirectly reflects that Yin Yue Demon Venerate is still worried about you reuniting with Shi He and the others. Obviously, Shi He is inclined to join forces with us.”

Liu Fei’er nodded, ”Yes… but… I really don’t want the Demon Clan to fall into such civil strife.”

She turned to Qin Tian and said, ”Brother Tian, I want to help the Demon Clan recover. I don’t want the Demon Clan to fall into utter chaos.”

Looking at the earnest Liu Fei’er, Qin Tian pinched her cheek and said with a smile, ”Silly girl, don’t worry, I will definitely help you become the ruler of the Demon Clan. You are a member of the Demon Royal Family; this is your duty.”

”I know.” Liu Fei’er looked at Qin Tian and nodded, ”But before that, I must kill Yin Yue Demon Venerate and Hong Qi. They are the ones who killed my father and my royal brother!”

”Awooo…”

Before Qin Tian could speak, Atai, who had already finished fighting, ran over and wagged his tail in front of Qin Tian, seeming to show off his achievements.

Qin Tian patted his head and said with a smile, ”Not bad, you’ve done well today. Alright, you can have dinner.”

”Awooo…”

Atai happily barked twice and then darted off into the distance.

Before Qin Tian and Liu Fei’er could react, they saw him already running to a Pet Beast of a Flying Beast Soldier, starting his indiscriminate ”Overlord Hard Bow” behavior…

This Spiritual Beast was a female, and Atai’s antics made her run around howling, Qin Tian and Liu Fei’er looked at each other and chuckled helplessly.

Liu Fei’er’s cheeks flushed slightly, and she said, ”Atai is so blatant… Brother Tian, you need to discipline him properly. He becomes more unruly without you, even forcing Sister Bing to lock him up. Only you can keep him in check.”

”Lord Qin, my Spiritual Beast… I plead with you, Lord Qin, do not harm my Spiritual Beast!”

The Flying Beast Soldier, seeing Atai chasing his Spiritual Beast with reckless abandon, was so anxious he was sweating profusely.

Knowing that this red beast was Qin Hou’s Pet Beast, he dared not say anything at first, but as a Flying Beast Soldier, the Pet Beast was his life. In the end, he mustered the courage to speak out.

Qin Tian said, ”Atai, you can handle him however you like. Even if you kill him, I won’t blame you. Do whatever you need to protect your Pet Beast. Any measure is acceptable.”

”Really?” The Flying Beast Soldier asked.

Qin Tian nodded, ”Would I lie in front of so many people? Even if you kill him and make a stew, I won’t blame you. I’m leaving. Whatever measures you want to take, feel free.”

After saying that, Qin Tian took Liu Fei’er’s hand, and the two of them walked towards the Central Army.

The soldier hesitated for a moment, then gathered his courage and shouted, ”Brothers, come help! Lord Qin said we can handle Atai as we see fit. Let’s go, let’s teach him a lesson!”

”Awooo…”

Before long, Atai was being chastised by the Flying Beast Soldiers, though he was too fast for them to catch. In the end, Atai ran to Qin Tian for safety.

As they advanced toward the Demon Clan’s West, Qin Tian also maintained constant contact with the West State, though the distance was so great that it took more than half a month to deliver a single message.

”Boss, there’s news from the Imperial City, the Fourth Prince is taking action against the Crown Prince!”

One day, when Qin Tian’s main force was about a thousand kilometers from Mu City, Xiao Zhuang suddenly brought Qin Tian a piece of news that made his face change instantly.

At the same time, a spy also delivered Gongsun Sanniang’s secret letter to Qin Tian.

In the letter, Gongsun Sanniang described in detail how the Fourth Prince targeted the Crown Prince, even reporting the Crown Prince’s corruption and bribery to the Ice Emperor, presenting irrefutable evidence that the Crown Prince secretly recruited over ten thousand soldiers and trained an assassin organization called Sword Shadow!

According to Tianyuan Dynasty law, as a Prince, the Crown Prince was only allowed a thousand personal guards; exceeding that was illegal.

And privately training an assassin organization like Sword Shadow was a direct affront to the Ice Emperor!

When the Crown Prince tried to defend himself, unexpectedly, two trusted aides on his side rebelled, confirming his crimes!

The Crown Prince was rendered speechless!

Previously, the Ninth Prince was in trouble, and the Crown Prince added insult to injury. Now that the Crown Prince was in trouble, some of the Ninth Prince’s remaining followers also came forward to kick him while he was down, even the Empress disparaged the Crown Prince in front of the Ice Emperor!

In an instant, the Imperial City was in chaos!

The Crown Prince, after all, was the heir, and this incident shocked the Tianyuan Dynasty.

Even though Lords from all over wrote to the Ice Emperor, asking him to reconsider, the Fourth Prince had already seized control of the court. More than half of the high-ranking officials were his people, continuously advising the Ice Emperor, leaving him bitterly disappointed in the Crown Prince!

Of course, the Ice Emperor was no fool; he also knew that the Fourth Prince was behind this targeting the Crown Prince.

However, the Crown Prince’s crimes were undeniable!

In a fit of anger, the Ice Emperor took three days off the court, refusing to see anyone and locking himself in the Imperial Palace’s Forbidden Land!

Three days later, when the Ice Emperor emerged from the Forbidden Land, he immediately decreed to depose the Crown Prince’s heir status and banish him to the Northern Border, forbidding him from returning to the Imperial City without imperial permission!

This decree shook the entire court and commonwealth!

But at this point, the Fourth Prince was relentless, inciting officials to continue advising, even suggesting demoting the Crown Prince to a commoner or directly executing him!

According to Tianyuan Dynasty law, the Crown Prince’s crime deserved execution!

The Ice Emperor naturally understood the Fourth Prince’s intention—

The governor of North State was the Crown Prince’s father-in-law. Sending the Crown Prince to North State would give him a great opportunity to make a comeback!

The Fourth Prince intended to give the Crown Prince no chance!

As a result, conflicts escalated entirely, and Xu Fengnian, governor of the North State, directly mobilized troops, amassing an army of two hundred thousand at the border, ready to march south at any moment!
