Chapter 1385: Would He Have Suffered Such a Crushing Defeat?

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

It wasn’t easy escaping from Duoya City, and he had never been in such a sorry state in his life. He was transported out like a dead dog, as trash! He could not guarantee that he would be able to leave if he went in again.

“Pft.” Marquess Ning turned to look at Zhan Beixiao. “If Zhan Beiye hadn’t relented, do you think you could’ve escaped from Duoya City with your brain?

“What do you mean?”

Zhan Beixiao did not understand. What did he mean? Did he say that he had escaped from Duoya City because Zhan Beiye let him go on purpose?

That’s impossible! How could Zhan Beiye let him off on purpose?

“Do you know how much Yueming Emperor paid Zhan Beiye for his son? Ming Fucheng couldn’t even escape from Zhan Beiye. Now that you’ve managed to escape, do you really think you’re capable?”

Marquess Ning was amused. Did his grandson really think he was so capable?

“What’s wrong with me? Is it my fault that Zhan Beiye couldn’t trap me? Why don’t you say that he’s stupid?” Zhan Beixiao was furious and shouted at Marquess Ning.

How could his own grandfather look down on him that much? He was a nrince

of Zhanling Empire, after all. How could he lose to Zhan Beiye?

Would he have suffered such a crushing defeat if Zhan Beiye had not schemed against him?

It was entirely Zhan Beiye’s fault for being sinister. He realized that Zhan Beiye might have arranged for those women to sow discord between him and the soldiers.

Why were they blaming him now that something had gone wrong?

“Grandfather, how could you boost Zhan Beiye’s morale and destroy your biological grandson’s dignity?” He was furious and was about to go crazy.

Marquess Ning was speechless.

Did his grandson still have any dignity left to speak of?

Look at him. Did he still look like a member of the royal family? He had embarrassed himself completely.

“Shut up!” he shouted at Zhan Beixiao with a dark expression.

He really did not want to see his grandson, who only infuriated him.

“Since you think you’re better than Zhan Beiye in every way, what’s there to be afraid of? Follow me to Duoya City and have a good fight with Zhan Beiye. Isn’t that what you want?” he said.

“1—” Zhan Beixiao was speechless.

He had nothing in his pockets. How could he fight with Zhan Beiye?

If he swapped places with Zhan Beiye and all the troops under Zhan Beiye’s command were his, would Zhan Beiye still dare to be so arrogant toward him?

Obviously not!

Wasn’t he just relying on the fact that he had resources? What was so great about that? Why couldn’t his grandfather realize this? If he also had weapons, he could definitely deal with Zhan Beiye.

“Do we have to go to Duoya City, Grandfather?”

He could tell that he had to go to Duoya City. Marquess Ning wanted to kill Zhan Beiye. There was bound to be a covert conflict in Duoya City.

Marquess Ning looked at him coldly and retorted, “What do you think?” Zhan Beixiao shrank back.

Forget it. He decided he would just hide after arriving at Duoya City. There was no need to become enemies with Zhan Beiye.

Even if he really wanted to become enemies with Zhan Beiye, he would have to wait until he had military power before he could attack him.

“Then… let’s go. I’ll accompany you, Grandfather.”

There was no other choice, right? He had already been captured and brought

into the carriage..
