They then strolled down the streets. Lots of stuff was on sale. Some were real, some were fake, some were good, and some were bad.Most talismans and cinnabar were fake. The wooden swords were mainly made of wooden bats, and haphazardly too. They weren't even blessed. After a round of strolling, Nox found nothing he wanted. It was vexing.Jebediah noticed his look of displeasure. He mused over his options for a bit. "Milord, there's a shop in the northern part of the town. An ancient shop. They say almost everything they sell is real. Should we check it out?""Very well.""I'll lead the way." Jebediah led Nox on another trip. On the way there, Jebediah said, "That shop is famous. Peony Abode, it's called. Riverton sorcerers love to shop there. Even guys from out of town would buy from the shop."Nox didn't care about that. He just wanted to get an excellent component to refine. A while later, they saw an old courtyard house from afar. The place felt ancient, and a plaque from the

"He's the VIP for all the bluebloods in the north."A frown furrowed Jebediah's forehead. "Why'd the owner of this place hire a geomancy master?""Wait, you don't know? Are you from out of town?"Jebediah nodded.The man said, "Fine, I'll tell you. See the flowers?" He pointed at the parterre. It was home to peonies. Wilted peonies, however.Curious, Jebediah said, "Yeah. And they're all wilted. Peonies, I assume?""Righto, but do you know that the flowers have not wilted for a hundred years?" the man said."What? The flowers stayed in bloom for a century? Is that a joke?" Jebediah was stunned."No, sir. Do you know why the shop got its name? This is why: the parterre of peonies that haven't wilted for a hundred years—until half a month ago, that is. The boss was panicked, so he hired this guy to check things out."That answered Jebediah's question. 'So that's how this place got its name,' he mused. 'No wonder the boss hired a geomancy master to help out.'Nox said nothing, b
Revenge of the Night Chapter 312 Enraged
"Master Flame, you must help me. I'll give you a million and a half. And I'll give you everything my shop has!" Mr. Windsor buzzed with excitement."Of course. I'll make a formation to draw out the earth's negative energy and balance out the energy overflow. Your peonies will bloom again in no time," said Master Flame.Everyone was in a good mood, but then someone exclaimed, "What a load of bullcrap!"Shocked, everyone turned around and saw a regal, handsome man stepping forward. That caught their attention.Mr. Windsor glared at Nox. "Who are you, punk? What is the meaning of this?"He thought, 'I spent so much time and money to get Master Flame here. I will not let anyone mess it up!'A retail assistant noticed Nox. "Boss, he's a customer!""A customer? I told you not to let anyone in today! Kick him out!" ordered Mr. Windsor shrilly."A minute," Master Flame stopped Mr. Windsor. He looked at Nox, his eyes narrowed. "You claim what I said was… nonsense. Why do you think so? P
Revenge of the Night Chapter 313 A Trick
"Do you even know the techniques involved in this work? Dragon's Expedition? Hidden Gold's Search?" Seymour stepped ahead, the air around him fierce.Nox, however, was unfazed. "I've never read anything you said, but I know you're wrong." He pointed at the parterre."This is no Positive Cell, and you can't balance the energy with negative energy. That won't make the flowers bloom. If you do that, you'll kill them faster. Go ahead, try it out."Rage had enveloped Seymour's mind. "How dare you doubt my skills! When I was already a pro, you weren't even born yet! I'll show you what it means to be a pro geomancer!"Seymour let out a roar and quickly plucked a wilted peony. He made a hand seal and started chanting under his breath. Everyone stared at him unblinkingly."He's going to cast a spell! Look!"Seymour's chanting went on for five minutes, then he roared again and made another hand seal. He pointed at the peony, and an invisible sliver of energy shot into the flower.A retail
Revenge of the Night Chapter 314 Revived
"What?""The flower's wilted again!"Everyone was dumbfounded. Mr. Windsor saw red. He glared at Nox with murder. "What did you do, you bastard? You killed my flower!" he roared.Everyone else hurled insults at Nox as well. They thought Nox was pulling something."Ignorant fools." Nox harrumphed and let them be. He then turned to the silent Seymour. "What about you? Do you think I did this?"Seymour was at a loss for words. That 'spell' he used to revive the peony was just a trick. It wasn't easy to revive a wilted flower, after all."You killed my peonies, and now you're threatening Master Flame? Men, kick this scum out of my shop!"The retail assistants came forward. Since these people thought so lowly of him, Nox sighed. "Fine. You made your bed, so you're going to lie in it. Don't come to me for any help. But before I go, I'll show you what I can do."Nox stepped ahead, and a great wave of magick undulated across the courtyard and crashed on the wilted parterre. "I command
Revenge of the Night Chapter 315 A Deal
"Don't worry, the flowers won't be alive for long.""What? What's that supposed to mean?""The flowers will wilt soon after this," Nox answered."But why? I saw them blooming again." Jebediah was confused."Of course, you don't know why. The cause for the peonies' wilting stems from something underground.""Underground?""Yes." Nox's eyes shone. The moment he saw the parterre, he felt something underground radiating great heat. It was thanks to that item that the parterre was wilting.However, Nox had no idea what that item was.While Nox was in the middle of the explanation, someone shouted, "Sir, please, a minute! A minute!"Nox and Jebediah turned around. They saw Mr. Windsor and his employees coming up to them.Jebediah frowned. "You guys?"Mr. Windsor was panting heavily, but he was bowing to Nox and apologizing profusely. "I am very sorry for what I did, sir. I apologize for my mistakes. Please, forgive me." He went down on his knees.Nox said, "Finally realized your
Revenge of the Night Chapter 316 Dig It Up
Mr. Windsor was petrified with awe. The parterre's truth was a secret guarded through generations. Ages ago, his family had a formation master, and under the parterre was a formation to gather wealth.Nox saw through it when Seymour failed to. Mr. Windsor was now looking at Nox with newfound respect.His hesitation, however, prompted Nox to ask, "Are you refusing?"Mr. Windsor gritted his teeth. "N-No! I'll dig the stuff up if you keep my flowers alive.""We have a deal." Nox smiled. He had no idea what was hidden underground, but he knew it was priceless."Can you come back with me, then?" Mr. Windsor asked politely.Nox and Jebediah went back to the shop. A fearful Seymour quickly bowed to Nox. "My humblest greetings, sir. I apologize for my earlier behavior. Please do not take it to heart."Nox didn't attack Seymour; he waved him down. "I don't mind. Next time, don't pull any cheap tricks."Embarrassed, Seymour wanted to hide in a hole. He didn't argue with Nox. "I will keep

Everyone snapped out of their stupor and stared at the pit.Nox said, "Yes, that's right."Seymour smacked his head. "No wonder your parterre is dying. The peonies bloomed for as long as they did thanks to this formation, but it's worn out now."Seymour looked at Nox with worship. "You're right, sir. I have been mistaken since the start. I was talking nonsense. Now I see why you want this place dug up. Thank you for the lesson," he gushed and bowed to Nox.Nox kept quiet. His attention was all on the heat wave. He leaped into the air and landed on the edge of the parterre. He turned on his divine sense and looked at the black water.Moments passed, and Nox's eyes shone, a smile curling his lips. "I see." He waved his hand, and an explosion rocked the air. The black water splashed everywhere, then a purplish-brown stone the size of Nox's fist appeared.The scorching heat wave came from this stone. Everyone stared in confusion."What's that?""Is that a stone?""No way. How does

Back in the regular guards' camp, Harley spat blood. He was lying in the ruins of a building, his body covered in slash marks. His Celestial technique was broken. This man was leagues above him. Celestial techniques were useless. The swordsman was too powerful."Magic Mountain's techniques? But their swordsmen are on good terms with the lord!" Harley stared at the man in green. He defeated Harley using Magic Mountain's techniques.Magic Mountain and Mystia had always been at loggerheads. They had slain many demons and monsters throughout the years, and their swordsmanship was a bane for the cultivators."I wonder how Nox managed to make a Mystian like you loyal to him. Yes, I am a Magic Mountain swordsman. Was, to be honest. I was kicked out a hundred years ago. My master said my heart is astray. How laughable. I have killed demons over ninety years, and hundreds of them have died to my blade! My heart is not astray!"Your sins are innumerable, Harley, and you must be slain! White

All of a sudden, the soldiers let go of their weapons. They had a look of fanaticism on their faces as they throttled themselves to death. The party went on, and the bluebloods enjoyed every moment, oblivious to the incoming danger.The monk passed through the residence smoothly, with all the soldiers and guards throttling themselves to death. Suddenly, everyone noticed a monk in red robes in the party hall. The drunk guests thought this was an event arranged by Atlas."We have a monk here. Wonder what kind of show you're presenting," a portly rich man joked, laughing loudly."Show? I am the leader of an evil sect. No show, but I do have a scripture to share. The government calls my sect evil, and they claim the monks are agents of darkness. You are not much better yourself. Omitofo."The old monk chanted once more, and the look on everyone's faces changed. Some knelt and cried their hearts out. Some groveled and didn't even notice that their heads were bleeding. They talked about

Back in his residence, Atlas called a feast and invited the bluebloods of Imperia. He was glowing during the event and could never be happier. He used to be a declining aristocrat with nothing but the title of nobility.However, his luck turned for the better when he got older. He followed Nox into battle at Heaven's Cage, Vertolt, and Winterosch, making him a true lord. The Limerents controlled the nation, and he was a prince. He could even have some power over the nation or at least be one of the top dogs in Faeast.If Nox became emperor, then all the better. Perhaps he could be a more intimate part of the royal family. He drank to his heart's content and partied with the most desired people in Imperia. Nothing could be better."Life is short, people. Drink!"…The Ice Temple's vice-Lord was in the regular guards' encampment. This was a critical junction, and yet Atlas wasn't at his post. Instead, he was having a party. The vice-Lord had a bad feeling about this, but he had no p

Harley sneered, having nothing but disdain for Atlas. "I can't believe the master would employ a shithead like you."Atlas laughed. "You think you're so high and mighty, but you're also Lord Nox's lapdog now. I am his subordinate, and we have a close relationship. I'm also the uncle of the emperor. That makes me Lord Nox's great-uncle," bragged Atlas."Dumbass. Just do your fucking job. Vermilion Bird and Black Tortoise told me the Mousses might try something," Harley cursed.The mention of the Mousses made Atlas panic, but he calmed himself down and snored. "The Mousses? They won't dare do anything when I'm here. If they show up, I'll kick their ass! I command thirty thousand units. If they come to Imperia, it'll be the last thing they see!" Atlas was confident.Harley was speechless. 'My word, how can he be such a braggart?'With thirty thousand Nox Army units in Imperia, combined with the Forbidden Army, the regular guards, and 200 thousand elites protecting Imperia, nothing co

Vermilion Bird said, "Azure Dragon used to be an Advanced Eight Gates. After the Mousses had him under their control, he became a Supreme. Judging by these photos, he's gotten more powerful since then."'More powerful?' Nineve knew how the cultivators were ranked. Top Legend Realms were another kind of life form entirely. In Faeast, a Supreme could be made a lord. An undefeatable Supreme would be made a ruler. A Sovereign was made every five hundred years, while a ruler was made every century.Supremes appeared once every decade or so. "I don't get it. You three obviously found some power source, and with Nox's help, you leveled up. Azure Dragon only has the Mousses. How'd he level up so fast?"If the Mousses were so powerful, they wouldn't have to resort to assassinations or betrayals."Not the Mousses. It's all Azure Dragon. He's our captain. He's a very talented and cunning man. Emphasis on talent. He's so strong that not even three of us can compare to him, combined. The only g

Elizabeth said nothing but went red and hung her head low, causing Black Tortoise to panic."Uh oh. If you want him, you'll have to fight for him. That's all I can say, but the lord does think highly of you." He laughed."Shut it, Black Tortoise. You're talking nonsense here!" Vermilion Bird snapped. "See you, Your Majesty." She then took Black Tortoise and left the room quickly. They had work to do.The duo led most of the Shadow Division members back to Faeast. After the incident of Brundela, Faeast's fate was going strong, and the people were excited. However, beneath that excitement was unseen danger.Vermilion Bird and Black Tortoise came back to Northstate's governor-general's place and met up with Nineve. Black Tortoise said solemnly, "What happened, Your Highness? We need the details."Nineve looked exhausted, and there were dark circles under her eyes. She had been working hard in Nox's absence. "Honestly, Atlas… I mean, the Defender of the Lord hasn't been pulling his we

Douglas worked through the night for the negotiation."One, you must apologize for your invasion of Faeast. Two, you will return all stolen relics to us and pay for damages. Three, you will open trade with Faeast, and it must be complete and total. Those are our demands. We promise not to interfere with your nation's administration. Once the aid is administered, our fleet and army will retreat from Brundela."And one more thing. Faeast recognizes you as Brundela's new ruler." That was interesting. It also meant that Faeast could rescind that recognition at any time. Elizabeth had no choice. Without Faeast, Brundela would be gone. In the end, the nations arrived at an agreement.At midnight, they called a press conference. Faeast helped Eropa settle a war and avert a world disaster. That news took the world by storm. The Eastern dragon was rising, and none could stop it. It wouldn't take long for Faeast to return to the top.Brundela's case was over. After they gave enough aid, Ferg

"They call you Great Generals?" the Ice Temple Lord laughed. "If I do want to betray him, how do you hope to stop me? You three had to take me on together, and it only ended in a draw. Now that I'm an Emperor and White Tiger is in a slumber, I can destroy you in a moment!"The Ice Temple Lord looked at Vermilion Bird and Black Tortoise with disdain. Vermilion Bird's eyes were wide. She didn't care. She would fight the Temple Lord to the bitter end if she must.Black Tortoise was the calmer one, and he pulled Vermilion Bird back. "Calm down. Even if he wants to betray the lord, he at least would want to see the lord's body before he tries anything."Even a woman like Aphrodite lost this fight. He wouldn't dare try anything stupid."The Ice Temple Lord was still smug about being an Emperor, and now his celebration was cut short. Betraying Nox required a lot of courage. Nox's power terrified him. Even if he couldn't win the fight, Nox could at least come back safely.Besides, he only

The formation Nox created with the Sovereign Seal was on the brink of destruction. Once the formation was gone, the Sovereigns and the spirits would return to dust. In this final moment, Brundela's Faeastian called their friends and family in their homeland and projected the modern-day Faeast onto the gigantic screen in the plaza.The spirits cried when they saw how developed their nation had become. The Sovereigns and the rulers were meticulous people. They used to rule over a unified nation, so they knew how hard it was to create a dynasty. Every dynasty would have its peak and nadir.Every time a dynasty was on a decline, Faeast would be in danger. They didn't talk about the truth behind that video, of course. They admired the beautiful land of Faeast as they waited for their final moment to arrive."The hardest and darkest moment is behind us, sirs. Faeast has me now. You may rest in peace. I will not let you down. I will destroy the canker that infects Faeast and give it the pe
