With a loud shout from Zhang Xiao, a terrifying pressure, almost at the late stage of the Golden Core realm, instantly enveloped everyone present.

Everyone immediately felt as if a huge mountain was pressing down on their hearts; those below the Golden Core realm even found it difficult to breathe.

"not good!"

Lin Bei felt himself being locked onto by a killing intent. He could no longer care about killing Ye Chen. He suddenly turned around and threw the true energy ball he had gathered in his hand.

"Traitor, die!"

Zhang Xiaoren unleashed a powerful burst of energy while in mid-air, which collided with Lin Bei's attack, producing a deafening roar.

Seeing him rushing towards them, Gao Tian, ​​Yang Bin, and the others retreated frantically, not daring to stop him in the slightest. They were terrified by Zhang Xiao's imposing aura, as if he were about to explode at any moment.

"Lin Bei, even now I still can't believe that you actually betrayed the Azure Dragon Army. How can you face your father who died on the battlefield!"

Have you forgotten that you were raised by the families of Qinglong Army soldiers? Have you forgotten how I've poured my heart and soul into nurturing you all these years, even going so far as to place you in the position of deputy commander of the Qinglong Army?

Zhang Xiao's face was filled with heartache and indignation. He became increasingly agitated as he spoke, finally roaring, "Why? Why did you betray us, and become a dog for the Japanese?"

Upon hearing his question, Lin Bei's expression shifted, and various past scenes kept flashing through his mind. For a moment, he even felt a slight wavering.

However, in less than a fraction of a second, he came to his senses, his face turning terrifyingly cold, almost losing his composure due to the old man.

By defecting to the people of Japan, he committed an unforgivable crime. Even if he returned now, the Qinglong Army's military court would sentence him to death. There was no turning back once the arrow was released; he could only go down this dark path.

Thinking of this, he immediately snorted coldly, "Don't say it so harshly, I'm just cooperating with the Japanese."

"This is the first time I've heard someone say 'being treated like a dog' in such a shameless way," Zhang Xiao laughed in extreme anger.

Takada's eyes darted around, and he chuckled, "Commander Zhang, don't be angry. We do indeed have a cooperative relationship with War God Lin Bei. Our cooperation is not to harm the interests of Great Xia, but to achieve a win-win situation for both sides."

"If Commander Zhang can also cooperate with us, we will provide enough resources for you to break through to the Nascent Soul Realm. Why don't you consider it?"

Hearing his words, Shen Mei and the others, who were still at the bottom of the pit, tensed up a little. If the commander-in-chief of the Azure Dragon Army had been turned by the Japanese, then the southeastern region of Great Xia would be completely finished.

However, this worry lasted for less than a second before Zhang Xiao sneered, "If this commander wants cultivation resources, I will personally come to your Sakura Country to get them. I don't need your charity. I don't have the habit of not being a good person and choosing to be someone's dog."

As he spoke, he gave Lin Bei a deep look, the sarcasm in his tone unmistakable.

Seeing that his proposal was rejected, Takada's eyes gradually turned cold. "Since Commander Zhang is so tactless, then don't blame us for being impolite."

Zhang Xiao scoffed upon hearing this, "The three of you are no match for this commander."

Lin Bei, having learned Zhang Xiao's skills firsthand, knew his situation perfectly. He encouraged Yang Bin and Gao Tian, ​​"Don't worry, this old guy hasn't reached the late Golden Core stage yet. And because of his age, his qi and blood are severely depleted. At most, he's only slightly stronger than one of us. If the three of us attack together, he'll surely die today!"

"Hahaha, I never thought that what I originally just wanted to kill a little Valkyrie would end up attracting the big fish, the Azure Dragon Army Commander. It's truly a blessing from heaven for my Sakura Kingdom!" Oshima Ichiki couldn't help but shout excitedly.

Killing Qin Yu would at most deal a blow to the morale of the Azure Dragon Army, but killing the commander-in-chief of the Azure Dragon Army would have a very different outcome.

With the current commander of the Azure Dragon Army, Zhang Xiao, and the future commander, Ye Chen, both dying on Devil's Island, the Azure Dragon Army will be leaderless for a long time, and its combat effectiveness will be greatly reduced.

It seems that the Japanese Empire's plan to invade Great Xia in three years can be brought forward!

This time, he not only escaped punishment, but also made a groundbreaking contribution.

"Amaterasu Omikami has appeared to me! Thank you for your blessing!" He even knelt on the ground and began to give thanks to his goddess.

As for whether Lin Bei and his two companions could take down Zhang Xiao, he had no doubt whatsoever.

Even kindergarteners know that in a three-on-one situation, the advantage lies with Japan.

"Old Zhang is probably no good; it seems I'll have to step in."

Ye Chen, with his head resting on Shen Mei's lap, sighed inwardly, preparing to wake up from his feigned unconsciousness and lend Zhang Xiao a hand.

However, at this moment, his divine sense suddenly detected that a large number of experts were coming from the surrounding area, including two mid-stage Golden Core experts, and he did not know whether they were friends or enemies.

If it were an enemy, it would be five against two. In addition, he had just exhausted all the energy he had absorbed from the Divine Relic in order to protect Shen Mei and the others. They would probably really be in trouble.

Given the current situation, he decided to continue feigning unconsciousness. If it was an enemy, he could simply kill one of them later, which would make things much easier.

"Huh? Young Master Ye seemed to have moved a little just now, did you guys notice?" Shen Mei asked with some surprise.

"No, Young Master Ye is clearly seriously injured. How could he wake up so quickly? He's uncomfortable like this and needs to be held. Why don't you let me do it?" said Du Wan, Qin Yu's other female bodyguard.

"No need, I can hold him."

Upon hearing this, Shen Mei immediately hugged Ye Chen in her arms. To make him more comfortable, she even unbuttoned her combat suit and let him press against her hot air balloon.

After the battle, Ye Chen had completely won over Qin Yu's remaining three female guards, inspiring them to worship him with fervor.

Moreover, if Ye Chen hadn't risked his life to protect them from the combined attack of Lin Bei and the others, they would probably be reduced to dust by now.

If he weren't Qin Yu's husband, all three of them would have been having impure thoughts—no, in fact, they were already having impure thoughts.

Feeling the amazing elasticity on his face, Ye Chen felt helpless, but since she had to play dead, he could only let her continue.

Lin Bei also sensed that, in addition to the experts from the Yang family, there was another group of people rapidly approaching this area.

"The situation has changed; we need to act quickly!"

His expression changed drastically, and he immediately launched an attack on Zhang Xiao.

"Quick, that's Commander Zhang of the Azure Dragon Army! Old Zheng, hurry over and help him!" Yuan Xiaoxiao shouted anxiously.

"I'm leaving now."

An elderly man dressed in training clothes responded to the call and transformed into a streak of light to join the battle.

With his help, Zhang Xiao's situation, which was originally being suppressed, was instantly reversed. After all, Takada was in a semi-crippled state, and the two even had a slight advantage.

Just then, the experts from the Yang family finally arrived.

Seeing this, Yang Bin was overjoyed and immediately shouted, "Come help me!"

Lin Bei also sneered at Zhang Xiao, "Old man, you didn't expect this, did you? I still have a backup plan. As long as this old thing from who-knows-where is held back by the Yang family elders, you will still be unable to escape death in the end."

But just then, an angry female voice rang out, "Who said we're here to help you?"

Upon hearing the voice, Yang Bin turned his head and immediately screamed as if he had seen a ghost, "Yang Nanzhi, didn't I knock you into the sea with my palm? How could you still be alive?"
