"He fears the Sacred Clan killing him, but does he not fear that I might kill him?
Does he not realize that even if he doesn't contact the Sacred Clan, they will descend to this realm in a year anyway? The outcome would be the same."
The White Fox Queen hesitated, seemingly torn.
"If you’ve got something to say, spit it out! Don't be so damn indecisive!"
The White Fox Queen felt deeply aggrieved, wanting to point out that she was, in fact, a woman.
After hesitating for a moment, she found herself conflicted. She hadn’t wanted to betray the Azure Demon Emperor, but the thought of his refusal to sacrifice himself for her gnawed at her. And what about herself?
She had offered her body to feed a demon, thinking of Gu Qingfeng even while on that bed, trying to save the Azure Demon Emperor. Though ultimately countered and betrayed, the outcome didn’t matter—the intent did.
Comparing the two, resentment brewed in the White Fox Queen's heart.
Thus, she changed her mind.
"Master, the Azure Demon Emperor acted as he did because he still has an ace up his sleeve! He is waiting for the right moment to use it and turn the tables."
"Oh? That 'Master' rolled off your tongue quite smoothly. Did you perhaps just give yourself a little mental pep talk?"
The White Fox Queen froze; could his focus really be on that? Shouldn't he be asking about the Azure Demon Emperor's ace instead?
"Master, don't you want to know what his ace up his sleeve is?"
"Since you’re so eager to spill, I’ll grudgingly listen."
Truthfully, Gu Qingfeng didn’t particularly care about the Azure Demon Emperor’s trump card. To be precise, there was hardly anything in the Qing Realm that piqued his interest anymore.
Feeling disheartened, the White Fox Queen realized her betrayal had ultimately only earned Gu Qingfeng's casual disregard.
"The Sacred Clan gifted the Azure Demon Emperor a divine weapon known as the Ten Thousand Fiends Banner. This weapon's potency is extraordinary—it breaks past the limitations of this realm and is a true killing tool
At the mention of an artifact from the upper realm, Gu Qingfeng’s interest was faintly stirred.
"A divine weapon?"
"Yes, a divine weapon. It surpasses what we call Heaven-rank Spirit Weapons.
Just as cultivation in the Qing Realm can peak only at the Divine Realm, so too are weapons capped here. Heaven-rank Spirit Weapons are the highest tier in this world. Beyond that, there are divine weapons."
Gu Qingfeng’s mind flashed: "If he has the Ten Thousand Fiends Banner, then why hasn’t he used it already?"
"That’s because the Ten Thousand Fiends Banner requires absorbing fiends. The more it absorbs, the stronger it gets—and he hasn’t had a chance to prepare."
What the hell!
Now that was interesting!
Gu Qingfeng was delighted. In terms of one-on-one combat, he was already unbeatable in the Qing Realm. Thus, to break through to the Divine Realm, relying on a single fiend wouldn’t do.
What he needed now was a veritable ocean of fiends, a vast collective to make even incremental progress possible.
But the issue was that every fiend was an individual entity, and their power was difficult to combine.
Low-tier fiends couldn’t even penetrate his defenses. But the Ten Thousand Fiends Banner promised a perfect solution to this problem since it could harness and merge the power of countless fiends.
If the banner could absorb and unite the strength of billions of fiends, what kind of glorious spectacle would it produce?
This Ten Thousand Fiends Banner was a gem—a treasure that simply had to be claimed! With it, no low-tier fiend would ever go to waste again—truly an unbelievable tool, worthy of admiration!
"Let’s go! We’re paying the Azure Demon Emperor a visit!" Gu Qingfeng exclaimed excitedly.
Without delay, he dragged the White Fox Queen out the door.
The White Fox Queen sighed inwardly. In her mind, Gu Qingfeng’s urgency must stem from his fear of the Ten Thousand Fiends Banner. Surely he wanted to neutralize the hidden threat as quickly as possible.
This meant that the Azure Demon Emperor's only chance of turning defeat into victory was gone.
And all of this was because of her betrayal.
But she had no regrets, after all, it was the Azure Demon Emperor who abandoned her first.
Outside the grand hall.
A group of divine realm demons had slightly recovered some strength after a night's rest.
But they were still unable to shake off Gu Qingfeng's suppression.
This overwhelming power made them feel desperate.
At this moment, the sound of Gu Qingfeng's footsteps came, and some demons began to feel fear.
The feeling of being at someone's mercy and waiting for their fate was extremely terrifying.
Fortunately, Gu Qingfeng did not linger around them, but went straight to the Azure Demon Emperor.
As the saying goes, enemies meet with particularly red eyes, and the hatred of being cuckolded is even more irreconcilable.
The Azure Demon Emperor, with blood-red eyes, roared in anger, "Human! You will not die a good death! One day, this emperor will make you wish you were dead!"
The Azure Demon Emperor first cursed a few words, then looked at the delicate and weak White Fox Queen in the opponent's arms. When he saw the bruises on her body.
He felt a sharp pain in his heart, as if it was being cut by a knife.
"My queen! My queen, are you alright?" The Azure Demon Emperor asked with concern.
The White Fox Queen did not notice the pity in the Azure Demon Emperor's eyes, she didn't even bother with him, her attention was all focused on the opponent's dog-like pathetic state.
The once king, now covered in blood and crawling on the ground, really looked like a dog.
At this moment, all the guilt in her heart completely disappeared.
Indeed, her choice was the right one.
Victory belongs to the king, defeat to the loser, it has always been this way!
Only a peerless beauty like her could avoid being held accountable with the failure of the loser.
After all, which man doesn't love a beauty, and all she had to do was to change a man.
"Azure Demon Emperor, I didn't expect you to have a divine weapon from the upper realm, it really gave me a pleasant surprise." Gu Qingfeng said with a smile.
Upon hearing this, the Azure Demon Emperor's face changed drastically! That was his only chance to turn the tables, and now the enemy knew about it!
"How did you know about the divine weapon..."
The Azure Demon Emperor roared, but before he could finish his words, he suddenly stopped.
Because he thought of something, besides him, only the person who lived in his heart knew about the Demon Banner.
He suddenly looked at the White Fox Queen, his eyes full of disbelief, mixed with a bit of desperate heartache, and said tremblingly, "My queen.......did you tell him?"
The White Fox Queen did not answer.
But it was this silence that completely drove the Azure Demon Emperor mad.
"You wench! Haven't I been good enough to you? If you wanted the moon in the sky, I would have tried to pluck it down for you, but you betrayed me!"
The word "wench" changed the White Fox Queen's face, "What's the use of you being good to me? In the end, you're still lying on the ground like a dog!
So what if I told my master? What can you do?"
"What did you call him!" The Azure Demon Emperor trembled, "You actually called him master! You lowly creature!"
The Azure Demon Emperor struggled violently in anger, but it was all in vain.
"Wench! Yesterday you were still saying you loved me! Today, you're calling another man master with the same mouth that said you loved me, you're really cheap! You two dogs..."
Bang!
Gu Qingfeng kicked the Azure Demon Emperor's words back into his stomach.

So Gu Chen'an entered the role and began to act as a scumbag villain, but who would have expected that the female leads could hear his inner thoughts.
