Beastmaster of the Ages - Chapter 7340

Chapter 7254: You Beast!

Countless members of the Demon Slayer Army who had originally supported Wei Qingyu, whether they had followed him from the beginning or had previously followed Jiuyang and Yumo, now spoke out in protest on his behalf.

“War God Li, if you truly want to secure this position of War God, then compete fairly and squarely. What kind of skill is it to hide behind a woman like this?”

“I respect you as War God because of your recent achievements, but I must risk my life to advise you: this approach won’t gain our loyalty; it will only backfire!”

“Exactly! Using your connections is too shameful. If this is how you compete, why don’t you let Wei’s elders fight it out?”

They were unaware that Wei Qingyu, standing beside Li Tianming, had already seen no hope of turning the tide and was ashen-faced.

At this moment, these Demon Slayer Army members were filled with righteous indignation and were also inciting others to protest.

At this moment, a small group of Demon Slayer Army members who genuinely believed in Li Tianming were also speaking up for him, but their voices were very faint.

“Li Zhanshen must have his reasons for doing this. He already has an absolute advantage, so why would he need someone else to help him solidify his position?”

Some people spoke even more vehemently.

“You ungrateful bastards, have you forgotten that Li Zhanshen single-handedly held off the beast tide not long ago?”

“If it weren’t for Li Zhanshen, any one of us might have perished. How do you know that person wasn’t yourself? Is this how you treat your benefactor?”

The vast majority of the Demon Extermination Army remained silent at this moment, offering no support to anyone.

“Shut up! Quietly watch what Li Zhanshen has to announce!”

Yu Mo suddenly walked up to everyone and shouted loudly.

For a moment, the discussion among the crowd was slightly suppressed, and everyone stared intently at Li Tianming.

At this moment, Li Tianming expressionlessly took out the image sphere containing the evidence he had previously collected, held it high in the air, and made sure all members of the Demon Extermination Army could see it clearly.

“I know everyone is curious as to why Vice General Wei is in my hands. There’s no point in saying more. Just look at this, and you can judge for yourselves,” Li Tianming said calmly.

At this moment, the image sphere displayed everything Wei Qingyu had done to prepare for the beast tide.

Every scene was incredibly clear, even every one of Wei Qingyu’s Primordial Divine Seeds was clearly visible.

For a moment, the entire arena fell silent!

Everyone blinked in disbelief; the vast plaza was completely silent, everyone’s expression remarkably uniform.

Li Tianming then said expressionlessly, “I hereby announce the crimes of Vice General Wei Qingyu. First, attempting to frame the current War God is a minor matter for the Demon Extinction Army. Second, extending personal grudges to the entire Heavenly Eight Demon Extinction Army, attempting to severely damage the Heavenly Emperor’s Great Wall defense line, is a grave crime, deserving of death!”

He finished speaking and coldly glanced at the pale-faced Wei Qingyu beside him.

At this moment, all the Demon Extinction Army soldiers present suddenly erupted in fury.

“You beast! You’re a beast! Wei Qingyu is truly ruthless!”

“If you really succeed in all this, it won’t just be our Heavenly Eight Demon Army that dies, but also our brothers in other sections of the Great Wall. How could you come up with such a vicious trick?”

“Do you mean that the lives of our Demon Army are just to be wasted like this by you powerful and wealthy people?”

“If it were truly necessary on the battlefield, I could accept being cannon fodder, then my life would be used for a good purpose. But for you to make our brothers sacrifice themselves in vain, I cannot accept it!”

Countless Demon Army soldiers were below the stage, practically pointing their fingers at Wei Qingyu and cursing him.

Among them, seven border generals were even more enraged, some even more so than the lower-ranking Demon Army soldiers.

Qin Kuang and Jiang Guxu, one a middle-aged ghost god and the other an elderly member of the Divine Ruins Clan, both had faces flushed with rage.

“How come out of the three deputy generals, two beasts like Jiu Yang and you, Wei Qingyu, have appeared! Don’t you know

the saying ‘water can carry a boat, but it can also capsize it’?” Jiang Guxu cursed. Qin Kuang’s eyes were murderous as he roared, “A man like you, Wei Qingyu, deserves to die! Your early death is a blessing for our Heavenly Eight Demon Army!”

Some of the Demon Army soldiers who had originally sided with Wei Qingyu now looked ashen, some were confused, and some seemed fearful.

“It’s over. Deputy General Wei has also been caught red-handed. This struggle is completely over…”

This thought crossed the minds of the ashen-faced Demon Army soldiers.

Most of them had bet on Wei Qingyu and done many dirty things for him, so naturally they felt a sense of shared loss. Those who

were confused and fearful were those who had switched sides to Wei Qingyu after Jiu Yang’s death.

They hadn’t gained any benefits, and their new patron had fallen, so of course they felt lost.

However, this state of mind didn’t last long, and many quickly adjusted their attitude.

“In the end, it’s impossible for War God Li to have killed so many of our Demon Slayers. As long as we admit our mistakes and correct our attitude, we might still have a chance to survive!”

This was the thought in the minds of most people. Therefore, more and more of Wei Qingyu’s followers knelt down before Li Tianming.

“War God Li, we know we were wrong. We were misled by Wei Qingyu and did foolish things. We beg you to show mercy!”

“Please give us one last chance to die on the battlefield!”

“We knew nothing about what Wei Qingyu did. We did not participate in this matter. Please don’t blame us…”

Countless Demon Slayers seemed sincere, kowtowing repeatedly to Li Tianming.

“The Heavenly Eight Demon Slayers will always belong to War God Li! War God Li, you must believe me, I have always been a loyal Demon Slayer under your command!”

All the Demon Slayers who had originally followed Wei Qingyu, even the most foolish among them, knew at this moment that the tide had turned and changed their stance to support Li Tianming.

Facing the crowd, Li Tianming’s previously calm expression softened into a slight smile. “I know that deep down, everyone wants to unite and fight against the ancient demonic beast tide. Your efforts over the years have already been reflected in your battle achievements. However, there are always a few bad apples who have misled some of you, so of course I won’t put too much pressure on you because of a momentary lapse in judgment.”

A large number of the Demon-Slaying Army soldiers seemed to breathe a sigh of relief, patting their chests lightly.

“Excellent! War God Li is wise!”

“We swear to follow War God Li to the death!”

“Thank you for your forgiveness, War God Li!!”

Cheers erupted across the plaza in front of the War God Palace.

However, just as everyone was overjoyed—

“However!” Li Tianming’s tone shifted abruptly, his expression turning cold and stern. “There are some bad apples who can no longer remain in the army. Sooner or later, we will all be killed by these opportunists. Of course, I will not punish anyone for taking sides temporarily, but those who have a criminal record cannot stay in the army and harm others!”
