Revenge of the Night Chapter 1955 Tea
Within the great hall of the castle stood a few people who radiated an air even colder than those outside. Their armor was more resplendent than the guards', and they were covered in bizarre runes. A dozen trinkets, old and ancient, hung from the armor.Elizabeth had no idea how the cultivators ranked themselves, nor had she ever had contact with supernatural things. She thought these were the leaders of the temple, and the trinkets on the armor were like medals in the West.She didn't know anyone in the great hall save for an old man in the corner making tea. She thought he looked familiar.Black Tortoise announced, "The Nine-State Lord has arrived!" His voice was thunderous, and the gods within shook. They had weird looks on their faces, and some rolled their eyes.Nox mocked, "They're not blind, Black Tortoise. Of course, they know I'm here. We've left them hanging for so long that they must be impatient."The gods gulped. It almost sounded like Nox wanted to kill them. They wo

Nox expected Elizabeth's response. This was why she'd been so nervous all the way. "Ice Temple guys, get up and take your seats. Have a taste of Faeast's quality tea. You, old man, you kneel until she tells you to get up," said Nox.The gods stood up and took their seats. Then, they looked at the old man mockingly. It felt great seeing someone else suffer the burn. The old man groveled in terror, scraping the skin of his forehead. Soon, the ground was covered in blood."Nox, he's…""I know. Duke Coleman. He's the nemesis of Brundelan royalty and has been trying to set up his own fiefdom within the empire. He's just like your uncle now: a villain who stops at nothing to get what he wants," said Nox.Elizabeth nodded. Coleman was a traitor. He carved out his own fiefdom in Brundela blatantly, while his company monopolized the nation's markets. Then, he even set up his own military in his land.The duke tried to assassinate Elizabeth a few years ago. Fortunately, the intelligence age

"Elizabeth, when it comes to war, there is only profit. Whether someone is your friend or enemy is irrelevant. Mystia has been an enemy of Faeast for more than a thousand years, and yet I am working with Ice Temple now," encouraged Nox. He had noticed that Elizabeth couldn't forgive Coleman, yet she couldn't resolve herself to kill him.Coleman then declared that he would willingly give Elizabeth his wealth, military, and land, all for his survival and redemption. Elizabeth eventually nodded, and Coleman shed tears of joy. He turned into a faithful servant and helped Elizabeth return to her seat."Allies and enemies don't matter… I think you mean something else by that, Nine-State Lord," an icy voice came from the antechamber. The Ice Temple gods stood up and knelt in that chamber's direction.The others were already kneeling to them even before the god showed themselves. Elizabeth could imagine how powerful this newcomer would be. Yet, Nox didn't give any response. He simply took

"I did a lot over the last week, Elizabeth. Taking out the Assad gods in Coleman's land is just a bonus. I mostly convinced the Ice Temple gods to work for me. They just want to redeem themselves, so I'll spare them when the reckoning comes," Nox said.Elizabeth was stunned. She had no idea what the Ice Temple was, so Nox just wasted his time for nothing. Black Tortoise laughed. "Milord, you do embellish your stories sometimes. You went all the way to Mystia and beat up the Ice Temple's Lord and even made a video about him begging for his life to show his followers. That's the real reason they submitted to you."Ice Temple's Lord was almost having a breakdown. That fight was humiliating enough, yet Black Tortoise was bringing it up again. He protested, "Enough! I only surrendered to the God of Murder, not you! He acknowledged that, too!"Yes, that was what Nox said. Ice Temple would only submit to Nox. They would rather be his slaves than yield to Faeast. The latter would at least
Revenge of the Night Chapter 1959 Task
The mention of God lit up something in Elizabeth's eyes. Black Tortoise knew what she wanted to ask, so he answered, "The Temple of God was destroyed by the other temples hundreds of years ago. There are still remnants roaming around, but they're not major gods."Elizabeth felt her faith crumble. This was different from what her church taught her. 'Even God died?'"Mystia's factions are now divided into Three Paths, Six Halls, and Twelve Pavilions. The Three Paths are the path of the sword, the path of the martial, and the path of the ancient divine. "The Six Halls are the Beast Temple, the Ice Temple, the Olympians, the Assad Temple, the Temple of Fire, and the Eternal Bliss Temple. The Twelve Pavilions change a lot, so I'll spare you the details."To make things simple, the people in Mystia are just cultivators who can absorb natural energy. They aren't that mysterious. Mythology is nothing but a big scam," said Black Tortoise.Elizabeth's view of the world shattered. She was e
Revenge of the Night Chapter 1960 Another One
Ice Temple's cultivators were surprised. 'It's going to be that simple?' they thought. They assumed Nox would make them fight the Assad Temple's gods and the other temples as well. Protecting Elizabeth would be easy."You think it's going to be easy? Don't underestimate the princess of the Mortal Realm. She represents the legitimacy of the royal family. They have made her next in line, and the people expect that. "The Assad Temple wants to control Brundela, not plunge it into hell. They don't want to destroy Brundela. Their aim is to control its wealth."The ruler could be either Dickson or Elizabeth. Brundela would be plunged into disarray depending on the candidate, as how the nation is ruled would be affected. So, the Assad gods will kill Elizabeth themselves," Nox clarified.Only then did the Ice Temple gods realize what their job really was."Worry not, God of Murder. I shall protect the princess of Brundela myself. Even if Oudin himself were to come, I will duel him," the T

Elizabeth thought about her lineage and fell into a pit of sorrow. 'No, we're not a match.' For some reason, she felt like crying. Her heart was breaking. She then snapped out of it and realized Nox was the one feeling sad. She was just caught up in his emotions."The Nine-State Lord is the Sovereign of Faeast and its guardian. Even a legendary man like him can feel sad over something?" She then remembered about his apparent death at the Ocean of Death. He was almost killed because of a betrayal from the woman he loved."Aphrodite Mousse. The goddess of love and beauty. James told me about her before. She's a legendary woman in Faeast as well. She calls herself the smartest female tactician, but James called her a viper who'd stop at nothing to get what she wants."Then, a cold gust of wind assailed Elizabeth, and someone shouted. Elizabeth jumped and fell to the ground. Nox heard Elizabeth's mutterings. When she brought up Aphrodite, it got to him, and bloodlust spilled into the ai

"A hero?" Nox smiled. That was the first time someone called him that. "That's not a good title. Heroes never end well. I'd rather be a God of Murder, like the Mystians call me," he joked."Did you say knights?" Nox then looked outside the castle.Elizabeth was stunned and confused. Since Nox was teasing, she retorted cheekily, "Are you saying a knight's really going to come to protect me?"The sound of a trumpet came blowing in right after she said that, followed by the sounds of ancient Brundelan organs. Sounds of hooves clapping against the earth echoed through the air, and a group of knights armed to the teeth marched into the castle.Banners of ancient Brundelan flags billowed among them. Elizabeth recognized those. "That's the banner of the Holy Knights! And the Knights of Marta! And the Knights of Theton."These were the most famous knight orders in medieval Eropa. Elizabeth also saw some lesser-known orders, like the Knights of Saint Diego. These knights were clad in ancie

The talismans were Magic Mountain's Forbidden Art, and Nox had fused them with Ultimate Sun Dragon Manual. Nox's mentors back in Mystia had taught him the Sovereign Seal earlier than expected.Their goal was simple. If Nox became the Sovereign, he could use the seal to command all the natural energy around him. If he didn't become the Sovereign, he would teach the Sovereign how to use the seal.The Sovereign Seal was a Saintly technique and the most ancient technique around. It was stronger than a Celestial technique.A golden seal brighter than the sun slowly rose into the air. It was the Sovereign Seal.As it appeared, natural energy gathered around it. The energy flew into the relics Brundela took from Faeast. Within a museum not open to the public, a bronze sword started to tremble as natural energy flowed into it. That got the attention of a professor."That sword belonged to Faeast's Emperor Elijah! What is going on?"A silhouette came out of the sword, and his aura was maj

Back in the navy command center, Fergus got the drone footage of Brundela's latest development. There were a few generals from the Nox Army with him. They could see that the monsters in the capital were far stronger than the ones they took out."It's a pity the capital is too densely populated. We have the weapons, but we can't use them." Fergus slammed the table in frustration. Even if the capital were to fall into enemy hands and the people torn apart by the monsters, Fergus could not order his men to fire at the capital, or things would be bad for them.Fergus could only open fire if the monsters were in a no man's land."Commander Parrish, the lord has orders. We are to keep the waters guarded. Once the capital's crisis is over, we are to make our way to the port and give humanitarian aid," a Nox Army general said telepathically. He just got Nox's orders."Is that so? Then Nox can stop this crisis." Fergus' eyes shone. He had no idea what Nox was planning, but he was the Sovere
Revenge of the Night Chapter 1981 An Army of Monsters
Demons were walking the lands of Brundela. Legendary creatures were roaming the streets as if the end of days were here. The resurrected monsters were causing chaos everywhere. When the Titans showed themselves, despair washed over Brundela.There were too many monsters running around. Even after the Twilight Order and Ice Temple cultivators sent out everyone they had, it still wasn't enough to stop these creatures. The monsters went straight to the council hall, and so did the Titans.The Ice Temple Lord created a Magic Ice Formation and kept using Forbidden Arts and mystical artifacts to fend off the enemies. He had already done his best."You have to do something, Nine-State Lord. I can't hold on much longer!" the Ice Temple Lord said telepathically.Though monsters were about, they were not a threat to the Ice Temple Lord. he could leave anytime he wanted, but he had a deal with Nox. If he were to desert the battlefield, he would face a hell far worse than he could imagine late

Their targets were the relics around the altars. The moment the whirlpool showed up, the black energy conjured black walls and kept Brundela on lockdown, cutting off all communications.Possessed by evil spirits, gods from ancient civilizations came back to life. In the underground graveyard, the dead came bursting out of their coffins, and skeletons with phantom flames flickering around them charged at the holy knights and James' secret agents.Nothing more needed to be said. The holy knights' leader led the charge. The other knights resolved to fight to the death as they battled the skeleton gods.James and his secret agents fired off at the enemies, but the bullets did nothing to the skeletons. All they managed was to light a big spark. Only grenades and howitzers could deal damage to them, and even then, the damage was light.The battle was fierce. Though the knights did not fear death, they were still weaker than the prehistoric gods. These skeletons were nigh invincible, and

Nox was hovering higher than the Ice Temple Lord, and he got everyone's attention."Who's that?""It's a Faeastian!""My God, it's the Nine-State Lord!" Nox was known throughout Faeast and the world. Brundela's council members had recognized him the moment he showed up. They had nothing but fear for gods, yet Nox was the strongest man in the Mortal World, so they respected him.The clouds in Brundela's skies were hanging heavily over the ground, and the icy aura they radiated was making everyone shiver. Winter seemed to have come early for Brundela. The temperature was dipping fast.Back in the control center, intelligence agents were watching the surveillance footage closely, and they noticed the altar. The Twilight Order and Ice Temple cultivators were there, strengthening the altars' seal the best they could. There were soldiers guarding the altar as well.For some reason, the secret agents had a feeling something bad was going to happen. Murphy's Law, as they said.Suddenly,

A sliver of energy flew out of the puppet and gathered natural energy around it. Then, the temperature rose at a blistering rate. Fortunately, Bard's reminder came just in time, and Vermilion Bird was prepared for this. She led her team away from the spot.A pillar of fire engulfed the building, and heat waves shot off in every direction, lethal and deadly. The light eventually faded, and all buildings in a few hundred yards were razed to the ground.If Vermilion Bird had killed the puppet without thinking just now, she would have lost all her men and suffered serious injuries. "That bitch! I'm going to make her into a human swine one day! I'll give her hell!" she cursed.Bard gasped. 'Yeah, women can be really terrifying.' Not one General was a normal person.This incident didn't escape Nox, of course. He saw it through his divine sense. "Heh, you can't fight the flow of history? You say that, Aphrodite, but you've done the same thing more than once. Schemes and plots when your ey

Aphrodite was a master manipulator. She knew the weaknesses of Nox's underlings, and she praised Bard, "At least you know where you stand, Bard. You never overreach. Though we failed to make you one of us, I still thought it'd be a shame to kill you."Bard smiled. "Oh, you're such an actor, Ms. Mousse. You know why we don't like you? Queenie is a genuine lady, just like our lord. You're far inferior to her. And don't flatter yourself. Of course, I know where I stand. I can't even reach the pinnacle of martial arts, let alone cultivation."No matter how smart I am, my lack of talents holds me back. I can never be made an important leader." He was only spared because he couldn't become a threat to the Mousses.Nox didn't use schemes because he didn't need them. Absolute power could trump any plot.Vermilion Bird clenched her teeth. "What is the meaning of this? The lord knows that the bitch is here?"Bard shook his head. Vermilion Bird was a smart woman, but Aphrodite made her lose
Revenge of the Night Chapter 1976 Aphrodite's Tactic
Aphrodite felt nothing but sorrow, and Vermilion Bird burst into laughter. "I expected nothing less from these people. Your men are just like their employers. Hey, knights, you guys want to find out more about Faeast martial arts? See those Mousse guys? They're masters. Deal with them."Vermilion Bird gave her orders. She knew these people would escape the moment she showed up. The knights flew off, going after the escaped Mousses. The Mousses were a family of warriors, while these knights were cultivators, to an extent. They wore mystical artifacts, and the Mousses' guys didn't have something like that.The battle was fierce but short. The Mousses' powerhouses were taken out, and the rest were dealt with by the Shadow Division."And now only you're left. Interesting, isn't it? Karma always bites you in the ass. You betrayed my lord, and now your men betray you. You deserve this," Vermilion Bird cursed."Yes, I deserve this, but as long as he wants to be the Nine-State Lord, then w

'The beating heart of this land?' The woman's underlings looked grim. They were supposed to be the master tacticians here. Yet, Nox played them like a cheap kazoo. 'He's a far better tactician than we expected!'Nox began his counterattack not long after the Ocean of Death incident. This woman was none other than Aphrodite, Nox's old flame. When she saw Brundela's fate stabilizing, she knew right then that things had gotten out of her hands."Tell the Mousses in Eropa to retreat right away. There is no need to stay here any longer. He's not attacking us because he's waiting for us to do the same. The moment our men try to start anything, he'll swoop in and take them all out. "No one can beat him if he decides to go all the way. Not even me," said Aphrodite.Suddenly, the Mousses' powerhouse noticed something. "I sense bloodlust. Who goes there? Show yourself!" The powerhouses unsheathed their weapons and stood around Aphrodite, protecting her.A group of black silhouettes appeare
