"I—" Conrad's face flushed as he suddenly found it hard to speak. The truth was that he was not sure himself that Wilbur had killed Dalton, and Felix might just be telling the truth. But how could Conrad admit to that? Hadirt frowned. "Cat got your tongue, Conrad?" "I…" Just then, Felix piped up. "Lord Conrad's not going to be able to speak about this, Mister Hadirt. He doesn't want others to know what he did. You see, it's too heinous to say out loud." "This is what really happened…" Felix then told Hadirt what happened at Pulsa Lake but changed the ending to Dalton defeating Wilbur. Yes, Dalton had killed Wilbur and Augheimer, then left Pulsa Lake. Hadirt stared at Conrad coldly. "So, you were part of this battle as Wilbur's friend. I can't believe I trusted the words of someone so useless." "Tie them both up!" "Sir, we've already tied them up." "Send someone over to the City Lord's quarters. I want to see Edmund right now." "Yes, sir." The two servants left the
Hadirt had given Edmund three days, but two days had passed, and nothing had come up. A murderous aura lingered in the air in Buck Town. In fact, half of the town's insulation system had been suspended, effectively cutting off the heating for the western part of town. The streets were frozen over, and the cultivators were all bundled up. Nobody looked each other in the eye, as if they were trying to hide from something. "This f*cking weather!" "There's going to be a massacre in Buck Town if we don't find Dalton soon. All the cultivators will be dead." "F*ck, why don't we just go into the square and take the portal out of here, then? We can live in another town and come back once things are back to normal here, instead of spending our days in fear." "What do you think, brothers?" The small group of men looked at each other. They had been a group that relied on hunting and helping some cultivators with their personal vengeance to make their money. Their leader had improved
Who wouldn't kill for something like that? Locke had not thought much of Wilbur at first, but the dimensional treasure made him think that he had to get to know Wilbur somehow. After all, Locke's cultivation would rapidly grow once he managed to enter the dimensional treasure. If Wilbur had five thousand years of cultivation, he would have at least had to cultivate for a thousand years despite being a dragon clan cultivator. That was enough to prove that his dimensional treasure had a speed of time that was at least a hundred times faster. Ten years in the dimensional treasure would amount to a thousand years of cultivation. Once he had cultivated for a hundred years, he would have ten thousand years of cultivation. Locke believed that he would be able to take on any City Lord once he had ten thousand years of cultivation, taking over to become a City Lord himself. To achieve that, Locke would have to find Wilbur first. Yet when he came to Buck Town, he heard about the battle
Among those eight survivors, some stayed in the upper dimensions, while the others headed to the middle and lower dimensions. However, the universe was a vast expanse with endless dimensions. Each dimension was a world of its own, and new cultivators were born in those worlds every day. Thus, it would be practically impossible to find those eight cultivators. However, dimensional guardians were said to be able to go wherever they wanted with just a thought. That made killing the eight survivors much easier, yet that somehow never happened. Locke felt like Wilbur had most likely gotten his hands on the dimension treasures belonging to one of the eight survivors, which meant that the original owner had likely passed on. Locke emptied the contents of his glass in one go, overwhelmed with emotion. Wilbur had somehow been lucky enough to inherit one of the eight survivors' dimension treasures. Locke had worked hard too, living humbly in Buck Town for two thousand years until he fina
George crawled to his feet. "Wilbur does deserve to die, but are you really going to massacre a whole town? You know the other City Lords will learn about this for sure." "You still don't get where I'm coming from, George. Do you know how my brother managed to give the Dragon Slayer Organization its esteemed name and status?" George lowered his head, his voice trembling. "It's because Dalton was your brother, Lord Hadirt." Hadirt smirked. "So, you're not completely stupid. Do you think Dalton would have been able to make a name for the Dragon Slayer Organization without me, hm? Dalton is dead, and I would be made fun of if I let this slide or took care of it privately. What would become of my reputation and my pride if that happened?" George was at a loss for words. He knew that Hadirt was an obstinate man, and there was no changing his mind once he had made it up. George had thought that having once been Hadirt's slave before, he would be able to talk Hadirt out of this, but t
"Yes, sir. Can I know what my mission is?" "Let me congratulate you first, Bryce. I'm not sending you to Buck Town on a mission, but you're going to be the new City Lord of Buck Town. Yes, you're going to participate in the Ruler's Alliance meetings with me in no time." "What?" Bryce fell to the ground on his knees. "Sir, I've never had any intentions of surpassing you as City Lord. Please give me a chance to prove myself, Lord George…" Bryce prostrated himself repeatedly, and George walked up to him to stop him before pulling him to his feet. "You're the man I trust the most, Bryce. You're going to be the City Lord of Buck Town because of a change in the system. Don't be so worried." "Let me ask you this: how are you going to thank me once you really become the City Lord of Buck Town?" "I…" Bryce gritted his teeth. "I would be loyal to you, Lord George, and no one else. I'll do everything and anything you want me to do without a single complaint." "Good. Now remember t
Hadirt flew several meters backward, landing on the ground firmly. At the same time, Wilbur and the others had reached them, everyone releasing their own energy auras and attacking. Wilbur summoned the Magic Dragon Blade, bringing it down heavily against Hadirt. Hadirt was leaning backward then, muttering a spell as black miasma spread out of his palms. Following that, a black shield formed just in time to absorb everyone's attacks. Wilbur had thought that he would be able to slice through the defense shield on his own, only for it to promptly swallow his sword aura along with the other attacks. Hadirt jolted hard, and a wave of energy spread out. Everyone was sent flying as Hadirt looked around before charging straight at Wilbur. Wilbur's aura made it clear that he was the strongest out of the group and killing him was the fastest way to turn the tables around. Upon seeing this, Edmund appeared behind Wilbur to grab Hadirt by the wrist. "You're going up against me, Lord Hadi
Hadirt gritted his teeth. The energy aura on his body surged out and turned into a black defensive shield. Following that, he channeled all the energy in his body into the defensive shield as it spread out to cover a four-hundred-meter radius around him, making every rock on the ground quake in its wake. Edmund closed his eyes at the sight and took a deep breath. It was too late for anything now. He only had one Power Elixir Drop, which he used earlier. Edmund had thought that the battle would be over if he managed to take Hadirt down in ten minutes while not giving Hadirt the chance to take the Power Elixir Drop, making Edmund an instant legend among the nine towns. But now, everything has changed. Hadirt was not going to die, and all of Edmund's plans and hard work would have been for nothing. No one would be able to stop Hadirt, and Buck Town was going to be razed to the ground along with all the cultivators there. As the City Lord of Buck Town, the thought of a complete mas
Faye was clad in a beautiful wedding dress, hardly needing any blusher for how red her cheeks looked. Wilbur was also looking dapper in a fine tuxedo, and the bride and groom went around toasting to their friends one by one. Both their parents were overjoyed, knowing that their children had finally ended up with someone so wonderful. Everyone else was also brimming with smiles, drinking up a storm as the night went on. These people were all friends or subordinates of Wilbur and wanted nothing more than the best for him and Faye. There was no wedding emcee, and the ceremony was extremely simple, but the atmosphere was incomparable as everyone was nothing but smiles. The reception lasted all the way until late into the night, and even the newlyweds' parents got a little tipsy. The banquet ended at last, and the guests ushered Wilbur and Faye into their new bedroom. The newlyweds sat down facing each other, locking eyes. Faye lowered her head bashfully, and Wilbur looked
It was evening on Sealake Island when Wilbur returned. He stood on the long bridge, overwhelmed with emotion as he let out a hint of his aura. The island grew abuzz at once, and a series of familiar figures fought their way into Wilbur's line of sight. Wilbur smiled, stepping onto the island slowly. His smile grew as he came to the square, taking in the sight of Faye, Elsa, Faron, Shepard, and many others. Everyone else stared back at him, unable to hide the emotion on their faces. It had been so long since they had seen Wilbur, and there was no way for them to reach him. Words could not describe how much they had worried about and missed him. "I thought you were never coming back, Wilbur." Faye was the first to speak. Wilbur walked up to her, taking her into his arms. "I'm sorry. It'll never happen again. Everything's over now, and I'll never leave you again." Faye's heart soared as she broke out into overjoyed sobs. Everyone else was nothing but joyous as well. Fo
Bahamut, being a reincarnation of Kaiser himself, came slithering toward Wilbur. They both turned into their human forms, and a fierce battle broke out once more. Kaiser channeled his energy into Bahamut's body, giving Bahamut the upper hand over time. At last, Bahamut severely wounded Wilbur with a blow of his sword, causing Wilbur to fall from mid-air. "Hahaha!" Kaiser appeared suddenly then, laughing loudly. "Nice work, Bahamut." "Thank you, Master." Bahamut retreated behind Kaiser, looking at him coldly. He whipped out a dagger from his sleeves all of a sudden, driving it deep into Kaiser. Kaiser flipped around sharply, grabbing Bahamut's wrist and glowering at him. "Have you lost your mind?" Just then, the Dark Lord's voice sounded from Bahamut's throat. "You've stopped me many times now, Kaiser Fern! There's no way in hell I'll let you become the ultimate elite!" A furious Kaiser reached out to grab Bahamut's head, sucking him into his body. An explosion sounded throu
Just then, the Cold Lord muttered a spell. A series of snowy mountains descended from above, one of them striking Wilbur and Augheimer as the Cold Lord cackled. "Haha! Is that all you've got?" As his words rang through the air, the snowy mountain exploded with a loud boom into countless icy fragments to reveal Wilbur and Augheimer, standing tall and completely unaffected. "What?" "These imbeciles!" the Flame God shouted. The air around turned into a sea of flames at once, burning away relentlessly, but they vanished as soon as they came in contact with Wilbur and Augheimer's defense barriers. The Earth God shouted, "I'll settle this!" He muttered a spell, and the ground cracked open as Wilbur and Augheimer fell into a bottomless abyss. The Earth God smirked, and the crack began to close up. Yet just a few seconds later, the ground exploded as Wilbur and Augheimer flew back up. The Tornado God cast a spell to bring about a fierce gust of wind filled with countless razor-sh
The next second, Wilbur's Magic Dragon Blade made a gash in the air. The two men then wove through the gash, making their way to the lower dimensions from the upper dimensions and returning to Earth. The gash closed itself up, and a powerful wave of black miasma surged into the oceans from the heavens. It cleared up within a few minutes, and Earth was turned into a dark space. Several big fissures appeared in the heavens as the evil gods descended on Earth. The Blood God, the God of Destruction, the Cold Lord, the Flame God, the Earth God, the Tornado God, the God of Bloodlust, and the Snake God—all eight evil gods had descended upon Earth at the same time. Wilbur summoned the broken pieces of the Light Armor from the Fire Dragon Ring. The pieces radiated a white glow as they hovered in mid-air, and Wilbur quickly used his mind to put them together before wearing the Light Armor on his body. "Hahaha!" The Blood God laughed loudly. "I guess the universe dimensions aren't all
Hailey and Kayleen ducked out of the way before the pillars of light reached them, darting up to Sade at the last second as Hailey drove her sword into him at the same time Kayleen did the same with her spear. Hailey glowered at Sade. "You're the one who's really despicable here, Sade. Say goodbye to the world forever!" "Arghhhh!" Sade's body exploded in a flash of white light, disappearing out of sight. Hailey and Kayleen both got down on one knee. "At your service, Masters." Just then, Wilbur and Augheimer looked at the two ladies at the same time. Augheimer said, "At ease. You can both go back now, your work here is done." "Yes, Master." Hailey and Kayleen disappeared the next second. Just then, a fierce wind rolled over as a pillar of white light descended from the heavens as Odysseus appeared in front of the two men. "Wilbur Penn and Augheimer. I’ve finally found you. Tell me where the dimension guardians are, and hand them over!" A gleeful Odysseus reached out t
Sade threw his head back, laughing loudly. "No one has the right to replace me, no one! I'm the real dimensional guardian, the leader of the galaxy!" Just then, two figures appeared in the sky. They were Hailey and Kayleen, two of the other dimensional guardians. Hailey was holding a long sword as she scowled at Sade below her. "You went against the rules of the universe and changed its functions, Sade. And now you've killed Wilbur Penn, the cultivator who was supposed to replace you. For that, Kayleen and I are going to kill you today." Sade smirked at those words, not looking shocked at all. "I knew you two would never let me go for killing Wilbur. But he's already dead, and I still need to maintain order in the universe as a dimensional guardian. Even though you two may hate me, you can't kill me or you'd be going against the rules of the universe too, and have to be sentenced by Mister Richardson. Trust me, you won't end up in much better of a state than I'm in." Just then
Augheimer asked out of confusion, "What? To the upper dimension? All of a sudden?" Wilbur looked flustered, he replied, "There's no time to explain. Odysseus will be here in a while, and we won't be able to escape." Sade looked at Wilbur. He told Augheimer, "He's right. Believe him. Why would your close friend lie to you?" "That's right. He's a dimensional guardian, Sade. I begged Sade to go back in time here. Hurry up and come with me, Augheimer!" "Thanks, but if we're leaving, we should at least go to Buck Town and meet Felix one last time, right?" asked Augheimer. Wilbur looked at Augheimer in the eyes, there was a sense of familiarity that welled up all of a sudden. Wilbur instantly realized Augheimer had a secret in Buck Town, and perhaps it was very important to Augheimer. He helplessly nodded and replied, "Alright, we'll go to Buck Town first." Then, the three of them came to Buck Town through a transportation array. Augheimer grabbed Wilbur and ran. He said, "Run! F
"Damn it! Your second wish was supposed to be mine!" yelled Odysseus. Odysseus once captured a dimensional guardian's servant by chance, and he used him as leverage to obtain his final two wishes. His first wish was for Sade to guide him to the most powerful power of light spell. His second wish was for Sade to lead him to the Death Scepter. Odysseus mastered the power of two types of laws, the power of light and the power of death. He quickly grasped the intricacies of the power of death due to his unique talent. Odysseus wielded the might of both supreme spells with the Death Scepter and the most powerful power of light spell. Therefore, Odysseus gained immense confidence. His capabilities far surpassed most upper dimension cultivators, but he remained in the middle dimension. His desire was to once again capture a second dimensional guardian servant. Odysseus planned to acquire the Death Cloak by obtaining the servant's wish. Ultimately, he would combine the Death Cloak, D
