My System Is Three Thousand Years Early

Chapter 338 - 109: The Commander Leads the Troops (Subscribe Requested)

Qin Beifeng was weak and his complexion had reached an appalling state.

Previously restrained by Cheng Guang, he was still struggling, but the sight of Duke Zhen Guo, Cheng Shiyuan, repelling two Demon Kings and slaying several Demon Beasts alone.

His spirit shattered, he no longer had much desire to resist.

This upheaval in the Great Yan Dynasty, the retreat from the Border Area battlefield, for Qin Beifeng, was an opportunity that comes once in a millennium.

After so many years of painstaking planning, this was all he had achieved in the end.

Qin Beifeng found it hard to accept for a moment.

But now, he had no chance of victory. With the Devil Emperors gone, no matter how many Demon Beasts surrounded North City, they couldn't possibly breach its defenses.

Qin Beifeng's face was ashen, his eyes brimming with sorrow.

After all, he had failed to avenge Great Chu.

The power of the Duke.

Far exceeded his imagination.

As Qin Beifeng stood motionless and void of response, Duke Zhen Guo, Cheng Shiyuan, slowly descended from the high skies and landed before him.

Duke Zhen Guo, Cheng Shiyuan, looking at Qin Beifeng held down by Cheng Guang, had an extremely complex expression on his face.

First, he sighed, then stood with his hands behind his back, looking towards the firmament where the Demon Beasts were gradually retreating, and slowly said.

"Qin Beifeng, The Great Wind General, for Great Chu to have a general like you was the Emperor of Chu's good fortune."

"If not for the fall of Great Chu, you would have surely become someone like this old man within its ranks."

Upon hearing Duke Zhen Guo, Cheng Shiyuan's words, Qin Beifeng's ashen face did not show the slightest stir.

He felt that he was a dead man walking.

Designing to destroy the city gates, plotting to assassinate the Princely Heir.

Any one of these crimes alone would have made him deserving of death a thousand times over.

Therefore, Qin Beifeng could now face Duke Zhen Guo, Cheng Shiyuan, whom he had always respected and never dared to offend, with utmost calmness.

Duke Zhen Guo, Cheng Shiyuan was not overly concerned about Qin Beifeng's disrespect at the moment; his gaze went to the dissipating shadows of the Demon Beasts in the sky, and his majestic eyes slightly closed, falling upon Cheng Guang.

Duke Zhen Guo, Cheng Shiyuan, looking at Cheng Guang who had become an Iron Shell Turtle, his aged and authoritative eyes revealed a hint of emotion and astonishment.

"Duke, this is the Princely Heir."

"The Princely Heir has suddenly turned into this form for some reason." n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om

An officer of the Northern Expedition Army nearby noticed the shock in Duke Zhen Guo, Cheng Shiyuan's eyes and explained aloud.

Upon hearing this, Duke Zhen Guo, Cheng Shiyuan clicked his tongue in surprise, clearly not expecting Cheng Guang to have turned into such a form.

Looking at the Iron Shell Turtle, its demonic power was pure and didn't betray any sign of Cheng Guang.

If not for the reminder from the high-ranking officer of the Northern Expedition Army, he would have likely mistaken the Iron Shell Turtle for a real Demon Beast and not Cheng Guang.

As Duke Zhen Guo, Cheng Shiyuan pondered, he suddenly associated the previous request from Cheng Guang for a demonic pill, and now looked at the Iron Shell Turtle before him, with the aura of a Ninth Grade Demon King.

He had realized something.

Duke Zhen Guo, Cheng Shiyuan chuckled and shook his head, truly not having expected Cheng Guang to possess methods even he himself was unaware of.

This ability to use demonic pills to transform into a Demon Beast and inherit some powers—if it were not his own grandson who had it, he might actually be envious and wish to take it for himself.

He decisively released Qin Beifeng whom he'd been holding down.

A strange light flickered, and the mountain-like figure of the Iron Shell Turtle vanished from the spot in an instant, revealing Cheng Guang's graceful figure once again.

Now that Cheng Guang possessed this method, Duke Zhen Guo, Cheng Shiyuan naturally would not think further on it.

Duke Zhen Guo, Cheng Shiyuan looked at Cheng Guang, now in the guise of an Iron Shell Turtle, and said with a smile, "Grandson, that's enough, let him go. With your grandfather here, he can't do much anyway."

Cheng Guang, upon hearing the Duke's words, a primitive smile appeared on the turtle's face.

He decisively released Qin Beifeng whom he'd been holding down.

A strange light flickered, and the mountain-like figure of the Iron Shell Turtle vanished from the spot in an instant, revealing Cheng Guang's graceful figure once again.

Cheng Guang smiled at Duke Zhen Guo, Cheng Shiyuan and called out coyly, "Grandfather."

Duke Zhen Guo, Cheng Shiyuan personally witnessed the transformation from the Iron Shell Turtle back to Cheng Guang, his hand stroking his white beard stilled for a moment.

He exclaimed, "Grandson, your technique is truly extraordinary."

"To be able to transform into a Demon Beast is one thing, but to actually possess such terrifying strength and defensive power is another."

As Duke Zhen Guo, Cheng Shiyuan marveled, he also felt a trace of relief in his heart.

It was fortunate that Cheng Guang had more techniques at his disposal than he had anticipated.

Otherwise, if Qin Beifeng had acted against Cheng Guang, he would have had to make time to save him.

Even though he could've escaped from the entanglement of the two Devil Emperors and free himself to save Cheng Guang, and with his methods directly eradicate Qin Beifeng, the subsequent fight with the Devil Emperors would likely have been at a disadvantage.

Cheng Guang, facing the words of Duke Zhen Guo, Cheng Shiyuan, didn't know what to say. The Devil Transformation Armor was a Heavenly Treasure awarded by the system, extremely rare and precious, and even Duke Zhen Guo, Cheng Shiyuan did not possess many treasures of such caliber.

That was why Duke Zhen Guo, Cheng Shiyuan was so astounded.

"Grandfather, this is a Different Treasure I stumbled upon. By using demonic pills, and recording the Demon Beasts, I can transform into the adversary's form and inherit certain abilities," Cheng Guang said.

Stroking his beard, Duke Zhen Guo, Cheng Shiyuan nodded slightly, "I see. No wonder you asked me for a demonic pill before."

As Duke Zhen Guo, Cheng Shiyuan spoke, Cheng Guang timely said, "If grandfather could find me a Devil Emperor's demonic pill, I could probably become invincible below the Sky-Man."
