Peerless War God

After hearing this, he wished he could slap himself.    

If he had known that the Blood Hand was Chen Xiao's fake clone, he would not have ordered the Saber Demon to sneak attack Jingbian City. If the two of them had joined forces and fought with all their strength, they might have had a chance of winning if they had used the stronghold's fortress to defend themselves.    

Unfortunately, it was too late for regret.    

Li Zhan's expression was playful as he said, "You are not too stupid. You guessed it right away. That guy with the nickname Blood Hand is Chen Xiao's clone. He also has the combat strength of an immortal-level. That is why he was able to kill the Saber Demon in Jingbian City. You fell for it at the beginning. If the two of you joined forces, you would still have a chance to fight, but you were too smart. Heh."    

Li Zhan's attitude was contemptuous, and it made the black-clothed guard feel even more uncomfortable and depressed.    

"Alas." He let out a long sigh, his eyes filled with helplessness and unwillingness.    

"I will remember Chen Xiao. I will definitely take my revenge," the black-clothed guard said coldly.    

"I hope so," Li Zhan said.    

"Hmph, Li Zhan, you are just watching from the side. You are actually unwilling to make a move. You watch as my Divine Sect is destroyed. What bad intentions do you have? Don't you forget that we are on the same boat now. We are like grasshoppers on a rope. If I am gone, your fate won't be good either."    

This time, the black-robed Protector could no longer hold it in and started cursing loudly.    

Li Zhan was not angry at all. He only found it amusing and replied, “I’m different from you.”    

“Different?”    

“Yes, I still have a way out, but you don’t, do you?” Li Zhan sneered.    

“You…” The black-robed Protector was speechless for a moment.    

That’s right. After taking the path of an evil cultivator, there was no way out. One could only continue walking forward. Otherwise, the outcome would be death without a burial ground.    

“I’ve said it before. I’m looking forward to your comeback. I’ll wait.”    

After Li Zhan said this, the flame phantom disappeared.    

The black-robed Protector clenched his fists, and his veins bulged. He said fiercely, “My comeback. As long as the Divine Master is here, I can do it. Now, let’s find a place to hide and recuperate.”    

He immediately glanced in the direction where Li Zhan had disappeared. His figure flashed and he escaped.    

…    

At this moment, Zheng Xuan and the low-level cultivators on the Jingbian City wall were silently guarding and waiting for the outcome of this battle.    

Regardless of whether the Orthodox Dao cultivators on the Third Prince’s side won or the evil sect won, they all wanted to see the result with their own eyes. Otherwise, they would not be willing to die.    

“Zheng Xuan, do you think we can win this battle?”    

A companion asked worriedly.    

Zheng Xuan frowned. His eyes were a little lost, but he quickly became determined. “I believe we can win.”    

“Oh, why?” the companion asked.    

Zheng Xuan shook his head and said, “I don’t know either. It’s just my instinct. We can win.”    

“Tsk, I thought you had some news. Sigh, the cults are powerful and cruel. They don’t stop using all kinds of methods. I’m afraid we’re no match for them. If we lose, what should we do?”    

The companion said with a dejected and uneasy look.    

Another companion by the side chimed in, “Yeah, we can’t win. Sigh.”    

Zheng Xuan looked at them. He clenched his fists and said in a deep voice, “I think it’s possible. You know, didn’t we also think that the city guard wouldn’t be able to hold on and be ambushed by the elites of the cults? But now, the city guard has been protected. We’re not dead. Even the elites of the cults have been killed. Have you thought about this before?”    

“This…”    

“We haven’t thought about it, but is it the same? The Saber Demon was killed by Senior Blood Hand, right?”    

“But didn’t Senior Blood Hand follow the Third Prince to the battlefield from the beginning? How could it be…”    

“Could it be that there’s another elites of the elders assisting us? But the Third Prince didn’t say anything. What’s going on?”    

Everyone looked at each other, and they couldn’t figure it out.    

In Zheng Xuan’s heart, he thought of a possibility. “Could it be a clone?”    

He was only guessing, but he did not dare to say it out loud.    

At this moment, someone suddenly shouted, “Look, what is that? Is the evil sect coming? Run!”    

“There are so many people. What a huge formation. They are full of killing intent. They are full of blood and murderous aura. The evil sect is coming back. Run! Running is more important.”    

“I told you, we are just courting death by waiting here. Now, the evil sect is coming back. Run!”    

His companion cursed and pulled Zheng Xuan’s arm. He shouted, “Run! What are you waiting for? Are you waiting for the evil sect to come back and kill you?”    

Zheng Xuan was stunned. He pointed to the distance and said, “But, but that is the flag of the Third Prince, right?”    

He widened his eyes and gathered his magical power in his eyes. This was an eye technique.    

“Ah?”    

His companion was stunned and did not react.    

At this moment, more people realized that something was wrong and stopped.    

“That, that is really the flag of the Third Prince. It is not the evil sect that is coming back. Could it be that the Third Prince won?”    

“Hiss, right. It is really the flag of the Third Prince. Did we win?”    

“How did they do it? The Third Prince is mighty. Long live the Third Prince. We won.”    

Everyone cheered. They were no longer depressed. Their eyes were bloodshot and they were extremely excited.    

They won, defeated the cult, and even defended the city. This result was something that they didn't even dare to think about before. It was simply unbelievable.    

A huge amount of ecstasy filled their hearts. Zheng Xuan's eyes were shining, and he was extremely excited.    

"We won, we really won?"    

"Yeah."    

In the air, the Third Prince looked into the distance. He was still silently standing on the ground of Jingbian City, chatting with Chen Xiao.    

"Brother Chen Xiao, you have been keeping me in the dark for so long. Your original body actually came here as well, and you even killed the Saber Demon. Impressive, I really admire you."    

These words came from the heart of the Third Prince. He admired Chen Xiao to the point of prostrating himself.    

It was as if he had not done anything at all and had just won a great victory. Everything was within Chen Xiao's calculations. He had killed the Saber Demon in one fell swoop and established the victory.    

Chen Xiao smiled slightly and said, "Heh, it's also because the other party cooperated well. They were too smart and even split into two groups to ambush Jingbian City. Otherwise, it would have been difficult for the two protectors of the cult to attack together."    

The Third Prince sighed with emotion and said with lingering fear, "That's right. The other party was too smart for his own good. He had fallen into Brother Chen Xiao's trap long ago. How wonderful."    

Chen Xiao smiled and did not say much. He had taken advantage of the favorable situation and the people to achieve victory. If the other party had been more cautious, the outcome would have been unknown.    

"By the way, is Brother Chen Xiao's clone or his real body?" The Third Prince asked.    

"Real body."    

"Ah, when? I actually didn't notice at all."    

The Third Prince took a cold breath, his face filled with shock.
