1433: Chapter 1434: Good News Keeps Coming 1433: Chapter 1434: Good News Keeps Coming “Your Majesty Irina?”
Su Chengyu opened his mouth in surprise, obviously not expecting Irina to make such a decision.
After all, in the Bei Luo Empire, the only person who truly enjoyed the treatnt of a prince was actually only one person.
Regent King Blair.
“Your Majesty!
This matter is of great importance, you absolutely cannot make a decision lightly!”
Toreyev, having co to his senses, was still the first to speak out against it.
However, this ti, the ministers of Bei Luo within the great hall were no longer onlookers but agreed in succession, openly expressing their stance.
Cooperating with Xia Country is acceptable, and even joining hands or relying on Xia Country is fine.
But they absolutely could not allow a person from the Demon Hunting Office of Xia Nation to sit in such a high position at the beginning of the new king’s reign.
It’s not that they don’t trust Irina, on the contrary, it is precisely because they know how important Irina is to Bei Luo that they are even more unwilling to permit Su Chengyu—who has gained Irina’s trust—to sit in such a high position.
Just like the warning Su Chengyu previously gave to Blair, Xia Country does have the ability to gradually infiltrate the Bei Luo Empire, and they cannot allow Su Chengyu to be the one to infiltrate and take control of Irina.
“Thank you for Your Majesty’s great favor, I am willing to accept the title of a knight, but this position of a personal knight…”
“You promised before.”
Su Chengyu was taken aback before he realized the true intent behind Irina’s previous question about whether he was willing to accompany her on the last part of her journey.
Su Chengyu shook his head with a wry smile about to speak, but Irina spoke first: “If you don’t want to agree to this, then help with another matter.”
Another matter?
Su Chengyu froze for a mont, then the other request Irina had made of him ca to mind; he was instantly caught in a dilemma, and could only look towards the agitated Bei Luo ministers around him.
“Your Majesty, you see as well, it is not just who thinks this action is inappropriate.”
Irina frowned, her gaze fell on those people about to speak, when Blair on the side suddenly said: “Although Your Majesty’s move is sowhat impulsive, in my opinion, Sir Su Chengyu indeed has the qualifications to enjoy the treatnt of a prince.”
The noisy arguing in the great hall instantly quieted down with that one sentence.
If anyone in the entire Bei Luo had the most authority to speak about this matter, apart from Irina who formally took control of Bei Luo, it was undoubtedly this Bei Luo Regent King, Blair.
Yet, even Su Chengyu did not expect that Blair, who clearly had enmity towards him, would actually speak up for him at this mont.
Toreyev, unable to understand, looked at Blair and said: “Your Highness Blair, you governed Bei Luo for more than ten years before enjoying the status of a prince, even if Sir Su Chengyu has perford the feat of saving the country for Bei Luo, compared to you…”
“Other than , will there be a second person in Bei Luo to govern for more than a decade?”
With that single remark, Blair silenced Toreyev, and with a smile, Blair said: “Since there will not be another, then will my Bei Luo Empire never have a second prince?”
The people in the great hall fell silent, and seeing this, Blair continued: “Besides, Her Majesty The Queen is just granting Sir Su Chengyu the treatnt of a prince, not actually bestowing upon Sir Su Chengyu the rights of a prince, what’s wrong with that?”
“But…”
“In my view, Sir Su deserves the position of the Queen’s personal knight!
Even though he is not from Bei Luo, he will, just like Knight Natasha, be willing to protect Her Majesty The Queen with his life!”
A huge complint was placed upon Su Chengyu’s head, and he imdiately understood Blair’s intention with this move.
What a tactic of “killing soone with a borrowed knife.”
Blair most likely reckoned I wouldn’t readily make a move against Bei Luo; that’s why he blatantly sought my alliance, aiming to sow discord between and Xia Country.
Logically speaking, Su Chengyu could never agree to such a request, yet the resolute gaze of Irina beside him clearly showed no intention of letting him off easily.
After a mont’s thought, Su Chengyu softly said, “Your Majesty and Your Highness have shown such great kindness; it would be rather unreasonable for to refuse any longer.”
“You understand, that’s good.”
Irina said and took a step forward, presenting the blood-stained knighthood badge to Su Chengyu.
Su Chengyu took a deep breath, rose to his feet to accept the badge, and said, “Then, as a representative of Xia Country, I accept this badge of trust from Her Majesty the Queen.
As the Demon Slayer White Saint Envoy, I assure your country that during the battle against the Bam Alliance, the Demon Slayer Departnt will ensure the safety of Her Majesty the Queen, and never allow the Nether Clan, or any heretics, to harass Your Majesty.”
With those words, Su Chengyu had accepted the chairman’s role.
But as Irina watched Su Chengyu, who had accepted the badge, she couldn’t shake off the feeling that sothing was amiss.
The courtiers in the grand hall, after hearing Su Chengyu’s speech, seed to have cald down a lot, and did not persist in dwelling on this matter any further.
Toreyev seed to have sothing more to say, but just as he was about to speak, Blair suddenly stepped forward, looking towards the outside of the hall, and then turned to speak to Irina.
“Your Majesty, news from Mount Belsar has co back.”
“The ssage from Sir Xu Zijing?” inquired Irina.
“Yes.”
The brief exchange drew the focus of everyone in the grand hall, and Irina took in a deep breath before saying, “Report it.”
Blair turned his head towards the courtiers in the hall, announcing, “Urgent battle report from Mount Belsar: Headquarters of the Bam Alliance has been attacked.
The War Emperor Toreyev of Linbei City, together with Demon Slayer Officer Yang Chengyin and Demon Slayer Saint Xu Zijing among others, have severely damaged the headquarters of the Bam Alliance.
Over a thousand of the Nether Clan have been vanquished.”
A thousand?
Everyone in the grand hall slightly arched their eyebrows, including Su Chengyu, who also found it sowhat surprising.
Considering the scale of the Nether Clan’s assault on the Thousand Tents Palace, the casualties outnumbered a thousand, hence the victory of slaying a thousand seed sowhat insignificant.
As everyone pondered, Blair continued.
“Among them, thirty-seven Nether Clan High Priests, over five hundred Sacrificers, three Hollow Vacuum heretics… and including the slaying of two Nether Clan Red-robed High Priests.”
Boom!
The last words exploded like a heavy bomb in the grand hall, with the first part of Blair’s supplentary words already extrely shocking.
More than half of the casualties were the absolute elites among the elites, and the numbers from the sa realm had already surpassed those appeared in Thousand Tents Palace by manyfold.
Yet the final ssage was even more astonishing.
The Nether Clan’s Red-robed High Priests were akin to Land Immortals, standing amongst the highest echelons of this world.
Everyone present was well aware of the difficulty in killing those of the Land Immortal Realm; since the attack on Thousand Tents Palace, the two Land Immortals stationed there had been engaged in battle without a decisive outco.
That Mount Belsar had slain two Red-robed High Priests in such a short period of ti was indeed shocking.
“Who killed the two Nether Clan Red-robed High Priests?”
Irina imdiately pursued the question with Blair.
After glancing at the battle report again for confirmation, Blair replied.
“Both Nether Clan Red-robed High Priests fell by the hand of Demon Slayer Officer of Xia Country, Yang Chengyin.”
