"Actually, I never doubted you. It was only later that I discovered everything was related to you, and I was being led by the nose!"
Lu Fan sneered, "But in the end, I found that among the many princes, you are the one with the most guiding ability."
"Is it just because of this that you suspect me of colluding with the Hell Dynasty? That probably doesn't hold water, does it?"
Bei Cheng shrugged, while silently sipping his tea, appearing even more composed.
"Of course, besides these, I'm also not entirely sure if you are that hidden person. However, when I paid attention, I could clearly sense the aura of the Hell Dynasty on you. Although you tried your best to conceal it, you couldn't hide the fact that you had contact with the Black Lotus Envoy of the Emperor Dynasty!"
Lu Fan stated directly, "The unique fragrance of the Black Lotus Envoy has always been on you, which means the Black Lotus Envoy is your person!"
"Hahaha..."
Bei Cheng burst into laughter, clapping his hands, "I never expected this, truly I didn't. You are so intelligent, able to guess so accurately. You are indeed very sharp, you truly surprise me!"
"I never imagined that my best friend would actually be the young master of the Hell Dynasty!"
Lu Fan shrugged and asked, "What is the purpose of all this you've said?"
"You might not know, I am not only from the Hell Dynasty but also a prince of the Heavenly Court Dynasty. No one can change that!"
Bei Cheng sneered, "However, I must make my mother's clan powerful, so I have to do things for the Hell Dynasty. As for the Heavenly Court Dynasty, it has long since chilled my heart. The moment my mother died, I considered everyone in the Heavenly Court Dynasty my greatest enemy!"
"I don't understand your suffering, nor do I know these things. But there is one thing I can understand: the deployment of the Heavenly Court Dynasty is not something you can control!"
Lu Fan shrugged, "If you go with me to see the Heavenly Emperor now and admit your mistakes, perhaps it's still not too late. At least the Heavenly Emperor is still your father!"
"Father?"
Bei Cheng gave a cold laugh, "I don't have such a father. The things he does are never for his own desires! It's a pity that until my mother died, he didn't know my mother was from the Hell Dynasty. Otherwise, I would have probably been annihilated long ago!"
Lu Fan stood rooted to the spot, unsure how to respond. Such an event caught him off guard. Bei Cheng was his best friend, and he couldn't bring himself to fight him.
But letting this matter go was simply impossible.
"You don't need to be too conflicted. You can also choose to attack me!"
Bei Cheng stated directly, "After all, things have come to this point. It's not your fault. You are just an intermediary. What I want to deal with is the Heavenly Court Dynasty, and it has nothing to do with you. So, I hope you remain neutral!"
"Don't you forget, I am the King of the Northwest of the Heavenly Court Dynasty. How can I remain neutral?"
Lu Fan smiled faintly, "Even if you don't want to see the Heavenly Emperor, I won't let you leave easily today!"
"You are no match for me, and you cannot stop me!" Bei Cheng smiled faintly, and his aura instantly expanded, "Actually, if it were anyone else other than you, I might have killed them. Then no one would know my identity. But you are my friend, and I am unwilling to do that!"
"So you plan to leave the Heavenly Court on your own!" Lu Fan stood rooted to the spot, his expression appearing calm.
"That's right!"
Bei Cheng nodded, "Things have come to this, there's nothing more to say. Only in this way can we protect ourselves!"
"You are quite righteous, but as the King of the Northwest, I'm afraid I have to act against you!"
Lu Fan shrugged, "Otherwise, I cannot account to the Heavenly Emperor!"
Bei Cheng smiled faintly, not taking it too seriously. In a flash, he stepped towards the outside of the city.
At the same time, within the entire city, everyone's eyes were grave. They could clearly feel Prince Bei Cheng's figure rushing towards the outside of the imperial city, with Lu Fan in pursuit behind him.
"The King of the Northwest harbors ill intentions and intends to attack this prince. Why are you not intervening, my lords!"
Bei Cheng's voice rang out, his gaze sweeping towards the soldiers, his words showing no hesitation.
The soldiers, hearing Bei Cheng's call, rushed over, not knowing what was happening. On one side was the King of the Northwest, and on the other was Prince Bei Cheng. They were somewhat overwhelmed.
"What exactly is going on? In the past, the King of the Northwest and Prince Bei Cheng were good friends. Why are they fighting today!"
"Who says not! It's truly surprising! This is a prince! No matter how much power the King of the Northwest has, he cannot offend a prince, otherwise, wouldn't his life be forfeit!"
Conversations erupted, and people speculated with great suspicion about the matter.
Meanwhile, Prince Bei Cheng's figure had already stepped towards the city's exit, appearing imposing, carrying a killing intent wherever he went.
"Should we help or not!"
The soldiers stood in place, utterly confused. The turn of events had caught them off guard.
"On one side is the King of the Northwest, and on the other is the prince. How can we help!"
The soldiers stood frozen, their expressions a mix of emotions, feeling helpless. Such a situation was beyond their imagination. Sudan Novel Network
"Prince Bei Cheng is from the Hell Dynasty, why are you not apprehending him!"
Lu Fan's voice rang out, his expression carrying a hint of indifference. He knew very well that if Bei Cheng returned to the Hell Dynasty, it would inevitably cause a stir.
He was too familiar with the regulations of the Heavenly Court Dynasty. Once he went to the Hell Dynasty, the two dynasties would engage in war, inevitably causing endless turmoil and unrest.
Not long after, throughout the imperial city, people began to speak out. The news that Prince Bei Cheng was from the Hell Dynasty quickly spread.
Although they didn't believe it, even finding it somewhat ridiculous, the King of the Northwest had already taken action, appearing extremely fierce, as if it were not a lie.
If this were true, wouldn't it be a fantasy? He was the son of the Heavenly Emperor, how could he possibly be from the Hell Dynasty.
At the city gate, Bei Cheng suddenly stopped, his gaze fixed on Lu Fan, "We shall meet again if fate allows. In the near future, I will return to the capital, but by then, the entire capital will be occupied by the Hell Dynasty. This is unchangeable!"
"You are too confident!" Lu Fan shook his head and smiled, "Has the Hell Dynasty asked the people of the Heavenly Court Dynasty for permission to do this!"
"There are some things you might not know. The strength of the Hell Dynasty is not as simple as you imagine!" Bei Cheng smiled faintly.
