Upon hearing these words.
Tairuo and Sai Jia imdiately halted their steps.
Tairuo's gaze swept over the dozens of neatly arranged corpses on the ground... and was imdiately drawn to a particular corpse that had been sliced in half, exclaiming, "Lord Beliya, Commander in Chief Xu, what on earth happened here?!"
Xu Lingjun closed his eyes and said painfully, "Lord Beliya died because of ."
"What?!"
These words were spoken.
The first to be stunned was Yi Shiqi...
He glanced at Beliya's corpse with surprise, thinking to himself: could this be a ploy... we thought we were using Beliya, but in fact, was Beliya using Xu Lingjun to kill us?
Wait, if that's the case, then why did he kill Beliya?
Wait again... in that case, the statent that Beliya died because of him isn't wrong at all, because he's the one who killed him.
"Allow to introduce these people to Your Highness."
Xu Lingjun stood up, supporting himself with the Invisible Sword, limping towards the already dismbered corpse on the ground, and said, "This is the Master of Silicon, whose power far exceeds that of the Creation Realm... the Sovereign of the Nation of the Baoxue Empire, Uther's master, the White Robed Saint Master, was killed by him."
"And this one, this is Chiyan of the Fla Race, who is said to be one of the leaders of the Mysterious races of the heavens invading our Blue Star this ti."
"He is from the Seyin Clan and didn't ntion his na... because from the very beginning, he quietly lurked in the shadows, intending to assassinate ."
Xu Lingjun introduced each one.
And with each introduction, the faces of Tairuo and Sai Jia grew increasingly grave.
These people, in terms of identity and status, each could stand on equal footing with Tairuo, and so were even more prestigious than him.
And so many masters of the Mysterious races of the heavens joined forces to ambush Xu Lingjun... their resolve to target him was evidently to the point of no return.
Xu Lingjun smiled bitterly, "The journey to the Land of Light was originally at the invitation of Lord Beliya to build a brotherly alliance, but unexpectedly, our itinerary was leaked... simultaneously, we were attacked by so many masters, I was nearly mortally wounded, and Beliya was even sliced in half because of , Prince Tairuo, I fear you must give an explanation for this incident."
"Rest assured, Commander in Chief, we will certainly give you an explanation!"
Tairuo understood Xu Lingjun's aning.
This ti Beliya's journey, the true itinerary, was known to only a handful of people on Beliya's side, even Xu Lingjun, one of the parties involved, didn't know.
But now they were ambushed in advance here... needless to say, there was a traitor in the Land of Light.
Tairuo originally thought the traitor was Beliya.
But unexpectedly, Beliya also died in this attack, so it seems the traitor is hiding deeper than I imagined.
Tairuo clenched the docunt in his sleeve.
Thinking to himself, if that's the case, he didn't bring that docunt; was it not an intentional omission, but rather soone deliberately swapped it?
It seems that when we return, a thorough investigation is necessary.
"Then let us set off."
Xu Lingjun stood up with difficulty, unable to stop himself from swaying, and said, "I have been corroded by nuclear energy and may not have many days left to live, but in these final days, let shine brightly... it's rare for the Land of Light to have such resolve, to understand that only by uniting Blue Star into one can we withstand the endless assaults of the Mysterious races of the heavens, Prince Tairuo, you have already made such a sacrifice, how can I let your sacrifice be in vain?"
"Sacr... Sacrifice?"
Tairuo and Sai Jia were both stunned.
Tairuo exclaid, "What... what sacrifice have I made?"
Xu Lingjun frowned and said, "Prince Tairuo, that joke wasn't funny at all... to fulfill the promise to your Land of Light, I, Xu Lingjun, King of the Secret Realm, and Commander in Chief of Great Xia Empire's Nine Major Military Regions, was severely injured by enemies along with Night Demon, all because of that docunt of homage, and now, what's with your expression?"
"What? Hom... Homage..."
"Docunt?"
Tairuo and Sai Jia were both dumbfounded.
They wanted to ask Great Xia Empire for help, but their initial thought was to gain it for free... at most, they were willing to pay a price, but only in silver coins.
Being a proper sovereign of the Land of Light wasn't attractive enough; why would they surrender to others?
Seeing the strange expressions on their faces.
Xu Lingjun's expression turned grim, coldly saying, "Could it be... Prince Tairuo sees severely injured and wants to deny it?"
"But in fact, this is what I intended to submit to your country beforehand..."
"The docunt is here, Prince Tairuo, you might as well take a closer look at whether the seal on it is your national seal!"
Xu Lingjun directly threw out a docunt, which floated into Tairuo's hands.
Tairuo's movents halted, taking the docunt and giving it a cursory glance, instantly turning pale, and a wave of darkness nearly caused him to collapse.
This... this...
This sold the entire Land of Light.
Who did it?
Who swapped the docunt?
Was it Beliya? Not likely... he was already dead, and judging by the tone of Xu Lingjun, he resisted until the last mont before being killed!
So who was it, who's targeting the Land of Light?
He wanted to say the docunt was fake...
But looking at Xu Lingjun's shaky figure and pale complexion, if corroded by nuclear energy, this Commander in Chief Xu in front of him might be dead within a few years.
He left the base for the Land of Light and suffered such an attack... not knowing if he would forgive if I said this was a misunderstanding now?
Cold sweat dripped from Tairuo's forehead.
And beside him...
Yi Shiqi already regarded Xu Lingjun with imnse reverence.
He finally understood why Xu Lingjun wanted to vindicate Beliya.
As long as Beliya was cleared, the docunt in his hand was a legal docunt with a legitimate seal... and now, Xu Lingjun's plight for this docunt, there's no believing Tairuo would dare say this was rely a misunderstanding.
This Commander in Chief Xu is truly sinister, devouring both the enemy and his own people.
The trap they set this ti, although aid at Xu Lingjun, might actually help him achieve the unification of Blue Star.
To lure Xu Lingjun in...
The docunt contained extre flattery, selling everything they could.
Anyway, Xu Lingjun would be dead by then...
So the docunt was naturally just a worthless scrap of paper.
But now that Xu Lingjun wasn't dead, the validity of the docunt... beca a very debatable matter.
In this situation, if Tairuo dared to deny it, there might be an imdiate alliance against them with Great Xia Empire and the Secret Realm.
But for so reason.
Yi Shiqi kept feeling he had overlooked sothing very important.
Sai Jia, however, caught onto another aning in Xu Lingjun's words and exclaid, "Are you saying, those who attacked you, were not just these people, but... but those Night Demons?"
"Exactly!"
Xu Lingjun smiled bitterly, "We don't know how Night Demons ca to be, but it seems now, the verdict is out, it's likely those ruthless Mysterious races of the heavens directly used the corpses of the Baoxue Empire to create these Night Demons. At first, they couldn't control them and suffered losses, but this conspiracy clearly involved the Night Demons as well in the siege, indicating they might have mastered the ans to control them!"
He pointed to the armored vehicle in the distance and said, "Look, those Night Demons are cunning... they even know to cooperate with people. Earlier, when I hid inside this vehicle, the Master of Silicon slashed it open with one sword, then let the Night Demons enter. I almost died inside."
Yi Shiqi: "..................."
He suddenly felt that surrendering was indeed the wisest decision he could have made.
Facing Xu Lingjun, not only was his strength formidable, but his mind was as sharp and devious as ever.
In this situation, he had put Tairuo and the others on the grill to roast.
And additionally... gave them imnse pressure.
Yes, the Night Demons you've always relied on are actually creations of the Mysterious races of the heavens.
If you don't acknowledge this.
Then not only do you offend Great Xia Empire and the Secret Realm, but when the Mysterious races of the heavens use Night Demons to launch an assault, you might truly be dood.
