Translator: 549690339
The blood moon hung high in the sky, and the night breeze chilled to the bone.
At the heart of Cyan Town, inside the City Lord’s Mansion.
Under the illumination of numerous Light Crystal Stones embedded in the walls, the grand hall looked like daytime.
At the topmost seat, a middle-aged man dressed in a brocade robe sat, closing his eyes in contemplation while shaking the metal wine cup in his hand.
At his side, two rows of pretty maidens stood shivering.
After a moment, the man drained the reddish liquid from his cup and casually tilted it to the side.
Immediately, a young maiden who looked only sixteen or seventeen and still had traces of innocence on her face hurried forward, her hands trembling slightly as she refilled the wine cup.
During this process, it was apparent that the maiden’s exposed fair wrists were covered in startling scars, some of which had only recently scabbed over, evidently left behind not long ago.
“Spencer Thorne, have you received any news from Cuttlebone’s side?”
With a “bang,” the middle-aged man in a brocade robe forcefully put down the wine cup, showing displeasure on his face as he asked the skinny man in black clothes beside him.
This sudden move made the maidens around them tremble. They clenched their teeth tightly to suppress any noise they might make.
“City Lord, Cuttlebone suspects that the cunning Otherworldly Lord is not in the city and has already taken people to search outside the city since the evening,” Spencer Thorne replied.
From a fruit plate on the side, Spencer Thorne picked up a large, round, red strange fruit and presented it to the middle-aged man in a brocade robe, fawningly saying, “City Lord, I just got this from a fruit merchant today.
As he spoke, Spencer Thorne deliberately cast a glance at a petite and exquisite maiden not far away, causing her face to turn deathly pale.
“I see. It seems that fellow’s head isn’t filled with mush after all, besides women.”
Taking the red fruit from Spencer Thorne, the City Lord played with it in his hand and slightly frowned as he continued, “We’ve been searching the city nonstop since yesterday afternoon, but there’s been no news of that Otherworldly Lord. Could he have sensed something?”
“Rest assured, City Lord, that Otherworldly Lord’s fate is already sealed.”
A vicious gleam flashed in Spencer Thorne’s murky eyes as he coldly said, “What we need to consider is how to make that bold young man taste the full extent of our techniques.”
“Hehe, how dare he act under my watch! I’ll make him wish he were dead!”
On the other side, a thick killing intent suddenly surged on the City Lord’s face, and he laughed grimly.
Just as they were discussing this.
The heavy double-leaf gates of the grand hall were suddenly pushed open, making a harsh metallic sound.
Then, a faint voice entered the ears of the two men.
“Don’t bother looking for me anymore…”
Immediately afterward, an upright figure slowly entered from outside the door and appeared in the view of the City Lord, Spencer Thorne, and the surrounding maidens, smiling slightly as he said, “I came here on my own.”
At this moment, everyone’s astonished gazes were focused on the gentle-faced young man at the entrance, and the entire hall fell silent for an instant.
“Who are you?”
After a pause, the middle-aged City Lord narrowed his eyes with a fierce gaze, sizing up the young man before him.
At the same time, a formidable aura surged from within him, causing the metal wine cup beside him to vibrate slightly.
At his side, Spencer Thorne’s face darkened immediately after his initial surprise, pulling out two short blades from behind him, with killing intent permeating the air around him.
Since this place was the City Lord Mansion, the highest authority in the city, who could come and go as they pleased?
If someone invaded, they wouldn’t be leaving alive!
At this thought, a puzzled look couldn’t help but appear on Spencer Thorne’s cold face.
The security of the City Lord Mansion was extremely strict, and the Imperial Guards were all at the Tier 2 level, well-trained, and well-equipped. This was all too clear to the commander of the Imperial Guards.
So how did this young man, who was just past Tier 2, manage to break through the layers of security and enter?
Moreover, before the young man appeared, Spencer Thorne hadn’t sensed any unusual presences, which seemed unbelievable.
“Weren’t you the ones looking for me?”
On the other side, the young man remained unruffled in the face of the two powerhouse’s overwhelming auras and replied indifferently.
Without a doubt, this person was Leo Ray.
“You are the Otherworldly Lord?”
Hearing this, the City Lord crushed the red fruit in his hand after sizing up Leo Ray, laughing angrily, “Who gave you the courage? It seems like you’re tired of living!”After saying that, the City Lord clapped softly, and in an instant, two concealed secret doors opened simultaneously on both sides of the throne.
Shortly after, forty to fifty fully-armed iron-armored soldiers rushed out, surrounding Leo Ray in the middle.
Under the illumination of the Light Crystal Stone, dozens of sharp longswords gleamed brightlv, makinz it unbearable to 0Den one’s eves. Everv soldier’s face was filled with a strong murderous aura, as if they wanted to tear Leo Ray to pieces immediately.
Seeing this, the beautiful maids who had been scared out of their wits hid in the corner and began to exchange glances with one another.
So, this young man was the Otherworldly Lord who had caused chaos throughout the city?
What was he doing here? Wasn’t he afraid to die? The City Lord was a ruthless demon who would kill without blinking!
At the same time, Leo Ray nodded slightly.
The next second, Taylor, Gideon Black, Serena Clark, Stella Clark, and Scarlett appeared out of thin air or descended from the sky, completely protecting him in the center.
“So, you came prepared.”
Seeing this, the City Lord revealed an expression of not being surprised, and his face suddenly turned ferocious. With a wave of his hand, he ordered, “Kill him!
In an instant, more than 50 Tier 2 soldiers of equally extraordinary strength charged towards Leo Ray and the others.
The next second, Serena, Stella, and Scarlett stepped forward to meet the attack.
Taylor and Gideon Black, however, continued to guard Leo Ray, ready to defend against any unexpected moves from the City Lord.
For a moment, the scene was filled with clashing weapons and flying sparks, becoming chaotic in an instant.
Upon closer inspection, although there were only three people on their side at the moment,
Serena and Stella both happened to be agile Tier 3 Senior Powerhouses, with speeds comparable to Tier 4 Powerhouses.
Scarlett even used a flight spell, the magical wings on her back vibrating, as she hovered in mid-air, casting spells from above and burning the enemy soldiers who had no long-range tactics, leaving them disoriented.
Without a doubt, their side had quickly gained the upper hand on the battlefield within a few breaths.
At this moment, the Tier 2 soldiers and Spencer Thorne beside the City Lord couldn’t help but reveal an incredulous look of panic on their faces.
They could never have imagined that this Otherworldly Lord’s strength would be so formidable!
Undoubtedly, if the situation continues like this, the outcome would be uncertain.
As for the beautiful maids hiding in the corner, they looked at the calm Leo Ray with excitement, as if they were looking at their savior. Perhaps tonight, they could break free from their nightmare-like lives!
“A bunch of trash, all of you, step down.”
Seeing his soldiers completely at a disadvantage, the City Lord slowly stood up, his eyes suddenly widening. An even more astonishing momentum surged out of his body like a tidal wave.
“This is… the breath of a Tier 4 Powerhouse! Has the City Lord, who has stagnated at the Tier 3 Peak for nearly ten years, finally broken through his shackles and advanced to the level of a Tier 4 Powerhouse?!”
Realizing this, Spencer Thorne and the other soldiers couldn’t help but reveal ecstatic expressions, cheering loudly.
Without a doubt, even if all five of the opponents were Tier 3 Powerhouses, they could not possibly be a match for a Tier 4 Powerhouse!
At this moment, Spencer and the others could already imagine the interesting scene of the ignorant fools being slaughtered by the City Lord.
As for the beautiful maids, upon hearing that the City Lord had stepped into a new realm, their faces turned pale, and the hope that had just ignited in their hearts was once again extinguished.
“Boy, come and meet your doom! It’s an honor for you to die at the hands of a
Tier 4 Powerhouse!”
Hearing the cheers of Spencer and the soldiers, the City Lord revealed a smug smile. With a swift movement, he turned his fist into a palm like a comet and blasted straight towards Leo Ray!
The tremendous momentum made everyone present shudder in their hearts.
A Tier 4 Powerhouse was indeed unparalleled in the world!
Of course, this naturally didn’t include the people on their side.
Just as the City Lord, with his overwhelming momentum, was about to approach Leo Ray,
A burly figure suddenly blocked his way, a huge sword in his hand slashing down without any fancy moves.
Dragon-breaking Fierce Slash!
In an instant, a dazzling light flashed by.
When everyone regained their senses, they found that the City Lord, who had just been full of imposing momentum, had been cleaved in two!
“Everyone, what else do you have to rely on now?
The next second, Leo Ray’s indifferent voice echoed in everyone’s ears again..
