Human Clan Defender

Chapter 1296: Chapter 206: Panel Update, Power Surges

He hadn’t expected Shen Changqing to achieve such accomplishments.

The speed of his growth in power was simply astonishing.

"You have only one chance to speak the truth. Don’t waste it."

Standing before the cell, Shen Changqing’s expression was indifferent.

For those who betrayed the Human Clan, he felt no sympathy. If not for the fear of making a mistake, he would have crushed these two long ago when the Demon Evil Clan was exterminated.

To wish for him to be in a good temper now was impossible.

Upon hearing this.

Tan Tianji and the Martial Emperor exchanged a glance.

Then it was the Martial Emperor who spoke: "Let me speak!"

As he spoke, a hint of reminiscence appeared in his slightly crimson eyes.

"Years ago, when the Ghost Saint invaded Great Qin, the Demon Saint’s power was overwhelming in Great Qin, whether it be powerful Defender Envoys or hidden masters of Jianghu, all were no match before him.

In just a short time, he was at the front of the Capital City.

At that time, Gu Xuanji had just ascended the throne, and the Dominator of the Great Qin’s Demon Suppression Division was not Dongfang Zhao but his master, Yang Hou."

"Yang Hou had led the Demon-Subduing Division for many years, dedicating his life to Great Qin. Although the battle had not yet begun, Yang Venerable had little worry, because in his view, even though the Ghost Saint was coming fiercely, it was not enough to shake the foundation of Great Qin.

A single Ghost Saint was not enough for Yang Venerable to fear, but the Demon Evil Clan behind the Ghost Saint had troubled Yang Venerable for a long time.

He was concerned that if the Demon Evil were to launch a full-scale invasion with the power of Great Qin at that time, destruction would only be a matter of moments."

"So..."

"Yang Venerable chose me to infiltrate the Demon Evil Clan internally, thereby finding a chance to locate the flaws of the Demon Evil Clan or find a way out for the Human Clan."

As the Martial Emperor spoke, Tan Tianji’s expression remained unchanged.

Clearly.

He already knew about these events.

But these words to Shen Changqing, he did not quite believe.

"Why did Yang Hou choose you?"

He sneered coldly.

He had heard of Yang Hou’s reputation as well, the former Dominator of the Demon-Subduing Division, who unfortunately perished in the battle when the Ghost Saint invaded Great Qin.

"It’s simple, only because I’m one of the two most talented people at the Demon-Subduing Division!"

The Martial Emperor spoke here, his expression somewhat proud.

"The other most talented person, I believe Defender Shen also knows, is Dongfang Zhao.

In Yang Venerable’s view, eggs should not be placed in one basket; it is important to ensure the Demon-Subduing Division’s legacy is undefeated and has successors, while also ensuring there’s a retreat for the Human Clan when the Demon Evil launches a mass invasion.

Therefore, he chose to have Dongfang Zhao stay in the Demon-Subduing Division to lead, while choosing me to infiltrate the Demon Evil Clan, seeking a path."

Shen Changqing’s Divine Sense was always focused on the speaker, observing his emotional fluctuations.

From the tone of the Martial Emperor’s speech, no falsity could be temporarily discerned.

When he finished speaking, Shen Changqing coldly asked, "I remember you served as the Eternal Alliance Master and harmed not a few of the Human Clan. Was Yang Hou sending you into the Demon Evil Clan meant to harm the Human Clan?"

As the Martial Emperor was about to speak, Shen Changqing’s face turned stern: "Don’t rush to deny it, the deeds of your Eternal Alliance are clearly documented in the Demon-Subduing Division Scroll.

For a century, the commoners perishing at the hands of the Eternal Alliance were at least tens or hundreds of thousands.

Don’t tell me this was also Yang Hou’s command!"

"That was not Yang Venerable’s command, it was my own doing."

The Martial Emperor did not defend himself, shaking his head as he spoke: "To gain something, one must give something. If I infiltrate the Demon Evil Clan, I must earn the trust of the Ghost Saint, so I had no choice but to harm the Human Clan.

If I hadn’t earned the trust of the Demon Evil Clan, then when they invade en masse, it would be the entire Human Clan that perishes.

If I could earn the trust of the Demon Evil Clan, there was still a chance to preserve the Human Clan’s legacy, preventing a total loss.

The choice within, Defender Shen should understand better than I."
