Seeing this, Sivan threw a smoke bomb. When the smoke cleared, Sivan had already jumped over the courtyard's wall. Wilbur hurriedly chased after him. Seeing Sivan escape, Hanson leaped onto the courtyard wall and fled in the opposite direction. At this moment, Edmund calmly said, "Today, kill every member of the Dragon Slayer Organization who entered the mansion. Leave no one alive!" After saying this, Edmund leaped over the courtyard wall and chased after Hanson. Wilbur pursued Sivan as they ran out of the city. Sivan kept throwing smoke bombs to confuse Wilbur. However, Wilbur merely smiled. His azure dragon aura could detect energy within a hundred-meter radius. No matter how many smoke bombs Sivan threw, he could not hide his aura. Eventually, they reached the frozen lake, where Sivan stumbled and fell to the ground. "Mister Penn, I beg you, please spare me," Sivan pleaded. "I swear I won't tell anyone about today. Please spare my life." Looking at Sivan kneeling and
Edmund was well aware that the Dragon Slayer Organization was not a simple adversary. Killing Hanson and Sivan would inevitably bring a lot of trouble, but he had no choice. If he did not kill them, they would bring even greater problems for him. Taking action now, while his identity as a dragon clan cultivator had not yet spread beyond Buck Town, was the best option. Additionally, Wilbur was a card he could use to win over Lord George. Since George had specifically asked him to look after Wilbur, and now that he had found Wilbur and brought him back, George would surely choose to help him. Wilbur and Edmund were now in the same boat. To save Wilbur, George would have no choice but to support him. With George's backing and the fact that Hanson and Sivan had acted against the rules by breaking into the City Lord's residence, Edmund had a perfect reason to kill them. Even if the Dragon Slayer Organization still suspected him, they would not dare to act rashly. They could easily order
The guards began to work together, and soon, the courtyard was cleaned up. Wilbur frowned and said, "Lord Edmund, killing them is one thing, but if you cut off their heads and hang them on the gate, it might provoke the wrath of the Dragon Slayer Organization. If that happens, it will surely be detrimental to us." Edmund turned to look at Wilbur and said, "Mister Penn, I know what you're trying to say. In fact, I originally thought the same way as you. But don't forget, I am the City Lord of Buck Town. Hanson and Sivan dared to openly break into my mansion with members of the Dragon Slayer Organization. This act is a clear affront to me. If I don't hang their heads on the gates, word will spread, and in the future, the cultivators of Buck Town will surely see me, Edmund, as an incompetent man. When that time comes, I'm afraid no one in Buck Town will respect me anymore." Seeing Edmund's furious demeanor, Wilbur was speechless. Indeed, although Edmund was a dragon clan cultivator, h
"I heard that Lord George of Walker City is a dragon clan cultivator. Hanson's disrespect toward Lord Edmund is a clear provocation. Lord Edmund wants to show the Dragon Slayer Organization that they must follow the rules from now on, or they are courting death." Everyone was amazed. No one felt sorry for the Dragon Slayer members. Although all cultivators envied the power and skill of dragon clan cultivators, the Dragon Slayer Organization had done many infuriating things under the guise of hunting for dragon clan cultivators, so their deaths seemed justified to the public. At this time, a black-robed cultivator hiding in the shadows turned and left after hearing the guard's words. He crossed the street, sneaked through a quiet alley to the back door of Buck Town's branch of the Dragon Slayer Organization, and after checking his surroundings, he went inside. In the second basement level of the Dragon Slayer Organization branch, there was a man-made pond filled with a viscous, bl
"What?" Ardy exclaimed in shock. "Five hundred gold coins?" "That's right. Edmund managed to gather five hundred gold coins even before he became the City Lord, which shows his remarkable abilities. At that time, he promised to help me with three things in return. I thought when Hanson brought people to the City Lord's residence to look for dragon clan cultivators, Edmund would let them come and go out of respect for me. But much to my surprise, Edmund killed them. Counting Hanson and Sivan, Edmund killed twenty-four members of our Dragon Slayer Organization. I need to settle this score with him." "So, this matter…" Ardy deliberately paused, and Botani said, "After I deal with Edmund, you can report everything to headquarters." "Yes, Master Botani." Ardy was elated. Being a member of the Dragon Slayer Organization had given him a prestigious identity. Now that there was a conflict between the organization and Edmund, Ardy feared that the organization might be wiped out by Edmun
"That's nearly three times the cost for the Dragon Slayer organization. Such a price is not favorable for either of us," Edmund stated. Botani glared at Edmund and asked, "Then why did you still do it?" Edmund replied, "Master, it wasn't my fault. Hanson led the Dragon Slayer members to storm my residence late at night, causing this tragic event. As the lord of Buck Town, I must maintain my dignity. If anyone can intrude into my mansion in the middle of the night, wouldn't I become a laughingstock?" Hearing this, Botani took a deep breath and said, "Hanson once told me that your mansion harbored dragon clan cultivators. I assumed that he intruded at night to search for them and expected you to let him leave out of respect for me." Wilbur and Edmund exchanged surprised glances. They did not expect Botani to be unaware of the true situation. It seemed Hanson, seeking to claim all the credit, had not informed Botani that Edmund himself was a dragon clan cultivator. "However, I d
"Hahaha!" Botani threw his head back, laughing loudly, then continued, "What a rare sight it is for you to have a friend! Let me show you what true power looks like…" "Bring it on! I'm not afraid of you!" Wilbur gritted his teeth, then radiated an enormous amount of energy aura as Edmund did the same as well. Edmund stared at Botani. "Let me go first later, Wilbur. You can attack when the opportunity comes by." "Okay." Botani saw the two men in battle mode and immediately released his energy aura. It was much more powerful than Wilbur and Edmund's, and Botani gritted his teeth as he shouted, "Come on, Edmund!" Edmund charged toward Botani, gripping his sword. Botani's body rumbled violently, and the energy aura around him spread out to crush Edmund's power. At the same time, Edmund's sword had already reached Botani. The next second, Botani raised his hand and caught the blade of the sword with his index finger. He then twisted his wrist and broke Edmund's sword into piec
Edmund coughed twice as he got to his feet and looked at Botani. "Yes, I am one. I just didn't think you'd be so powerful. I don't think I'd be able to beat you on my own even if I was a dragon clan cultivator!" "Hahaha!" Botani threw his head back and laughed. "You're not wrong, Edmund. Forget being my match on your own. You wouldn't be able to take me on even if you teamed up with this guy." "You're pretty cocky," Wilbur said coldly. "Do you really think you can beat us?" Botani sneered, then said, "A dragon clan cultivator will never be a true elite until he learns the secret of the dragon clan. Until then, you're nothing to me. You two are nothing to me! I guess it really is time for Buck Town to get a new lord." Upon saying the words, the energy aura on Botani's body surged outward like a tidal wave, forcing Wilbur and Edmund several steps backward. "What energy is this?" asked Wilbur. Edmund warned, "Watch out. Botani cultivated the dimension laws of dark space. He's
