No one is a fool.

Especially those who have cultivated beyond the realm of a Great Sword Master; their character and comprehension are the cream of the crop. As for those of Sword Saint Level, they are even more extraordinary.

The brutal actions of the Panlong Heavenly Emperor filled them with immense disheartenment and extreme disappointment.

"Brothers, heed my advice: a wise bird chooses the tree to perch, and righteous ministers choose their lord to serve. Stop offering blind loyalty to this muddle-headed emperor; it’s not worth it!" Commander Pang was furious to the extreme when he saw his Dragon Guard being slain.

He was also heartbroken to the extreme.

If the Panlong Heavenly Emperor had killed the Dragon Guard who surrendered to the Great Chu Empire, he would have had no objections.

However, the Panlong Heavenly Emperor actually raised his brutal hand against those who were loyal to him.

It was truly infuriating.

"I would rather die than betray the Azure Dragon Heavenly Kingdom!" A Dragon Guard flew out of the City Protection Array, heading towards the outside of the city.

This person was even a Sword Saint.

Boom!

A sword light cleaved out from the Panlong Heavenly Emperor’s Divine Weapon, instantly cutting the person in half. The person was already dead while still in mid-air.

"I have said, those who dare to betray my Azure Dragon Heavenly Kingdom shall not be spared. Now you show loyalty before me, what were you doing earlier?" The Panlong Heavenly Emperor seemed possessed.

The actions he took were completely unlike those befitting an Emperor.

It was entirely driven by emotion, ignoring the consequences.

In truth, he couldn’t be entirely blamed. The national fortune of the Azure Dragon Heavenly Kingdom had been completely taken, greatly impacting him. To speak metaphorically, if the fate of a heavenly country is destroyed, various calamities naturally ensue.

The Heavenly Emperor himself would also be plagued with ill fortune, leading him to do foolish things.

"Another one fell! Panlong Heavenly Emperor, you truly are cruel and heartless!" Chu Feng said, his face full of mockery. "No wonder a perfectly fine Azure Dragon Heavenly Kingdom was ruined by you."

"Bastard, come out and fight if you have the guts!"

The Panlong Heavenly Emperor’s mood was already horrible to the extreme, and being provoked by Chu Feng like this, how could he tolerate it? Immediately, he roared in anger, like a frenzied bull, recklessly wielding his Divine Weapon, slashing fiercely at Chu Feng.

The dazzling sword light, like a Stunning Rainbow, was swift to the extreme.

As if it wanted to engulf everything in front of it.

This was the Panlong Heavenly Emperor’s ultimate life-saving secret technique, the Sword Technique Divine Ability, Devouring Spirit Slash.

It was extremely formidable, capable of slaughtering gods and slaying Buddhas, unstoppable by any.

Back then, it was this move by the Panlong Heavenly Emperor that severed one of Chu Feng’s Demon Arms.

Chu Feng stood on the city wall, his face full of contempt, with a cold smile, and didn’t move a muscle. He didn’t even blink an eye.

Bam!

The terrifying sword light cut fiercely onto the City Protection Array, but despite being just a thin layer of light, its defensive power was tremendously abnormal.

The full power strike of the Panlong Heavenly Emperor merely caused a slight ripple.

"Too weak! Although you’ve turned into a eunuch and lost a man’s vigor, you don’t have to be so cowardly, right? Hit harder, slash here!"

Chu Feng arrogantly pointed at his own forehead.

He intended to deliberately enrage the Panlong Heavenly Emperor to death.

"Ahhhh... bastard, I will kill you, kill you!"

The word eunuch was what the Panlong Heavenly Emperor hated hearing the most. Now, Chu Feng openly scolded him as a eunuch, he felt like his lungs would explode from anger. With a fevered mind, he was filled with only one thought: to kill Chu Feng at all costs.

Never had he hated a person as much as he did at this moment.

Bam bam bam!

The Panlong Heavenly Emperor crazily slashed at Chu Feng, but unfortunately, it was a futile effort. A million soldiers couldn’t breach this City Protection Array; no matter how powerful he was, he couldn’t break it.

After venting for a while, the Panlong Heavenly Emperor seemed to realize he couldn’t kill Chu Feng like this.

To avoid being angered to death by Chu Feng, he decided to leave first.

"Chu Feng, even if you have activated the City Protection Array, don’t forget that running it consumes over ten thousand Spirit Stones a day at the very least. I want to see how long you can last."

"When the City Protection Array is no more, the city will inevitably fall, and I will slaughter you all cleanly!"

The Panlong Heavenly Emperor didn’t just hate Chu Feng to the core; he hated everyone else alongside him.

Many of the Dragon Guard feared him greatly, their faces turning pale with fright.

Chu Feng only looked on with a cold smile, treating the Panlong Heavenly Emperor’s words like nonsense.

In fact, he had considered taking a risk and launching a surprise attack with his Demon Body, to eliminate this nemesis Panlong Heavenly Emperor.

However, each time Chu Feng had these thoughts, his eyelids would twitch violently.

If not mistaken, the Panlong Heavenly Emperor must have prepared a deadly move long ago, waiting for Chu Feng to take the bait.

Having been opponents with the Panlong Heavenly Emperor for so long, others may not understand him, but Chu Feng knew him very well.

Moreover, Chu Feng’s intuition was incredibly accurate.

Many times, it was believing in his intuition that saved his life.

"Master, why fear this neither-man-nor-woman creature? How about we kill him together and avenge your deep-seated grievances?" suggested the Demon Eye Evil Spirit King.

"Humph, do you think I don’t want revenge? Even though the Panlong Heavenly Emperor made a reckless move and killed those loyal Dragon Guard, it could very well be a deliberate trap."

Chu Feng remained unmoved, simply standing on the city wall watching quietly.

"Do you mean that the Panlong Heavenly Emperor deliberately made a clumsy move to lure you out, and then reveal his true killing move to finish you off?" asked the Demon Eye Evil Spirit King.

"That’s possible! The Panlong Heavenly Emperor is a madman. His Azure Dragon Heavenly Kingdom’s fate was entirely taken by me. He must be on the brink of mental collapse. Sacrificing a few thousand Dragon Guard would mean nothing to him. As long as he kills me, he can immediately turn the tide."

Wisdom gleamed in Chu Feng’s starry eyes.

"Master, you are wise! I admire you!" Although the Demon Eye Evil Spirit King was a cunning demon, it admitted being far inferior to the Panlong Heavenly Emperor.

During the conversation between Chu Feng and the Demon Eye Evil Spirit King, the Panlong Heavenly Emperor didn’t leave so decisively.

Several times, he secretly observed Chu Feng’s movements.

This made Chu Feng even more vigilant.

He would never let a small victory go to his head and relax his vigilance.

A slow ship lasts ten thousand years.

...

Next, what Chu Feng had to do was simple: plant Divine Soul Restrictions on all the high-ranking officers of the Dragon Guard and Commander Pang to prevent them from turning traitor again.

The human mind is prone to change.

Why the City Protection Array suddenly activated is still a mystery.

If the Dragon Guard discovered the truth at that time and turned against him unexpectedly, Chu Feng’s situation would immediately become very dangerous.

Chu Feng would never do something as foolish as inviting a wolf into the house.

After planting Divine Soul Restrictions on all the high-ranking officers of the Dragon Guard, Chu Feng felt a bit more at ease.

With the protection of the City Protection Array, Azure Dragon City was absolutely safe for the time being.

Chu Feng planned to seize this opportunity to capture the Imperial Palace with all his might.
