Chapter 233 Killing someone with a borrowed knife

Zhi Heng was terrified of Yun Fuzhao, so even though he was quite dissatisfied, he didn't dare to say anything. He left after uttering a few harsh words.

The Spring Festival Feast is a top priority for all demon clans, and many demon clans hope to take this opportunity to turn their fortunes around.

They put a lot of effort into this spring banquet, and most of them were unwilling to postpone it.

In fact, if the Qingqiu Fox Clan or the Eclipse Wolf Clan were to raise the possibility of a beast tide, other races would take it seriously.

But it was the Wan'er Rabbit Clan that brought this up, a rabbit clan known for its timidity and weakness.

Other races don't take them seriously at all, so why would they listen to them?

Therefore, when Bai Xinxin spread the news of the coming beast tide, most of the demons held a contemptuous attitude.

"Is the beast tide just an excuse for not wanting to attend the Spring Banquet?"

"Alright, alright, the beast tide is coming, you useless rabbits better hurry back to your mud burrows. Hahaha..."

A member of the Jackal Clan laughed, "Didn't they send a few rabbits to the Boundless Sword Sect for training? Why don't they show them off? Are they afraid of losing face?"

"I've already said what use are humans? I think that idiot Bai Xinxin is just grasping at straws in her desperation, she's gone crazy wanting to become stronger."

"To be honest, I don't know what the dragons were thinking. They gave up being the overlords and were willing to grovel at the feet of a woman, and a human at that."

Of course, they only dared to say these things in private; in front of Yun Fuzhao, they wouldn't dare utter a single word.

At this moment, Yun Fuzhao was in the midst of an eclipse. She and Ge Kui were already old acquaintances. Back then, infiltrating her place was a nerve-wracking experience, but now it was like her own home; she could come and go as she pleased.

"Is the news reliable?"

Goque frowned slightly. "This spring banquet is important to me and to Eclipse."

Yun Fuzhao was well aware of his current predicament. If he did not attend the Spring Banquet, his wolf clan would surely rise up and completely dethrone him.

Yun Fuzhao was so resolute because, in the original novel, the demon realm did indeed experience an unprecedented beast tide, which reportedly caused numerous casualties. Since it wasn't directly related to the protagonist, it was only briefly mentioned in the novel.

The timing is too coincidental, especially since Bai Xinxin brought it up as well.

It's better to believe it's true than not to believe it's not. Yun Fuzhao was just here to give him a heads-up; if he didn't believe it, Yun Fuzhao wouldn't force him.

“Reliable,” Yun Fuzhao said. “If you trust me, then don’t bring the eclipse to the Spring Banquet.”

The Spring Feast was held at the Bountiful Tree, which was located near the Endless Forest.

If a beast tide were to arrive, the Harvest Tree would be the first to suffer.

Gokkui stared at her intently, not immediately agreeing, but it was clear he was beginning to waver.

After a long pause, he spoke: "Alright, I won't go during the eclipse."

No sooner had he finished speaking than a group of wolves entered, led by Yi Fang.

Yun Fuzhao remembered him; she had killed his beloved, and he still harbored resentment. His eyes, when he looked at her, seemed capable of shooting knives.

"Wolf King, I'm afraid this is not a good idea."

Yi Fang coldly said, "She is clearly in cahoots with the Qingqiu Fox Clan. Who knows if she fabricated this lie to prevent our clan from participating so that Qingqiu can win the championship?"

Yun Fuzhao: "To be honest, even if you went, you wouldn't be able to defeat Qingqiu."

Ge Kui raised an eyebrow.

"Heh, you and that fox have an ambiguous relationship, so naturally you're siding with him." Yi Fang stared at her. "Everyone else fears your dragon clan, but I don't. In fact, I think that dragon clan doesn't deserve to be called dragons at all! A dragon clan that reigns supreme over the six realms is actually willing to be a beast of burden for a human. What kind of overlord is that!"

Jiaoyu, who was perched on Yun Fuzhao's wrist, stood up, a murderous glint flashing in her crimson eyes.

Yun Fuzhao patted his head calmly to comfort him.

She remained very calm: "I'm just stating the facts, why are you getting so worked up?"

Yi Fang never expected that even after he had humiliated her so much, she would remain unmoved.

Just as he was about to continue his sarcasm, he heard Gokui say coldly, "Who do you think you are, daring to represent my opinion? Yi Fang, don't forget who the Eclipse Wolf King is."

Yi Fang's eyes were red and his emotions were complicated. "Ge Kui! I used to respect and admire you the most, but ever since this woman appeared, you have become indecisive and have no fighting spirit! You even abandoned the wolf clan without saying a word and fooled around with this woman for almost three months! A coward like you is not worthy of being our wolf king!"

The wolves behind him echoed, "That's right, only the strong are worthy to be our wolf king!"

Yi Fang curled his lips into a smile, "Ge Kui, now most of the wolf clan is extremely dissatisfied with you. If you want to solidify your position as the wolf king..."

He paused for a moment, then said, "Kill this woman beside you, and we will once again support you as the Wolf King! We will swear our loyalty to you to the death!"

Yun Fuzhao's heart skipped a beat. That brat, he's so good at sowing discord.

She was inexplicably a little nervous.

To be honest, she thought Goque might actually do that.

After all, they hadn't known each other as long as Yu Ze and Qi Huai, and he also had a deep-seated blood feud with the human race...

It's not impossible that he might sacrifice her to consolidate his position.

The more she thought about it, the more terrified she became, especially since Gokui beside her hadn't responded immediately.

Yun Fuzhao subconsciously clenched the Wuji in his hand.

This action was observed by Gokui, who lowered his eyelashes and slowly said, "Only a piece of trash needs to sacrifice a woman to prove himself."

The expression on Yi Fang's face completely vanished. "Since that's the case, then don't blame me for pulling you off the throne."

"Please."

He had expected Goque to fly into a rage and retaliate, but he did not.

Gokwi remained calm throughout, making his rebellion seem like a joke.

A nameless rage welled up within Yi Fang. "Take him and that woman beside him down with me!"

Just as Yun Fuzhao was about to resist, Ge Kui stopped her without making a sound.

She was taken aback, turned her head to look, and the two stared at each other for a moment before Yun Fuzhao silently put away Wuji.

His inaction fueled the Yi people's anger. "You don't even dare to resist, Gokui? Do you really think I wouldn't dare to kill you?"

"Tomorrow is the Spring Festival Banquet, there is no need to cause casualties during the eclipse."

Yi Fang sneered twice, "You're smart to be pragmatic. Just you wait and see, I will definitely lead Eclipse to victory."

Gokwi didn't say anything.

The two were soon taken to the dungeon by the wolf clan.

Yun Fuzhao looked at him in confusion, "Why didn't you resist?"

Gokui was concentrating on tidying up the straw. "The wolves who would go with him have long since become disloyal to me. So there's no need for them to stay."

Yun Fuzhao realized after a moment that he was planning to use someone else to do his dirty work.
