Chapter 954 Stay Behind

Author: Lil Thorny Flower
"Aren't you going to ask why?" Nox couldn’t help but find Queenie's reaction strange.

Queenie leaned her head on Nox's shoulder and replied, "Dummy! Selina had long told me about it. She also told me that you had to save your friends. So, I understand."

Nox immediately realized Selina had already explained everything to Queenie.

"I'm sorry I can't stay with you longer." He looked at Queenie deeply.

Queenie shook her head and replied. "As the King of Faeast, it's only natural that you have many things to take care of. Hence, you don't need to worry about me at all! I've already told Selina I'll be your biggest supporter from now on!"

Nox held her tightly in his arms, touched by this silly girl’s understanding.

Then, Nox began to prepare to head to Imperia.

He gathered everyone in the living room as soon as he decided to leave for Imperia. Soon, Bear, Bard, Tristan, Selina, Draco, Augustus, and Jebediah were all present. Everyone already knew that Nox was preparing to go to Imperi

    Only Selina and Nox remained in the hall after everyone left.Her brilliance wasn't a rumor. So, she immediately realized that anything he wanted to discuss was related to Queenie. Thus, she met his eyes. "Mr. Greenshade, you want to talk to me about Queenie, don't you?""Nothing gets by you, huh?" He admitted readily, "You're right. It's about Queenie."She took a seat. "Don't worry. I've briefed her about this. So, you can rest easy.""Thank you, and there's one more thing," he added as he presented an ancient parchment scroll to her.She blinked a few times before turning to study it. "What is that?""This is a martial art manual named 'Dance of Butterflies.' It's suitable to be practiced by women," he explained as he handed her the scroll."Dance of Butterflies?" She took it and perused its content. Then, an idea dawned on her."Do you want me to teach Queenie this?" She looked into his eyes for confirmation."Yes." He nodded and elaborated, "She's just a civilian. However

  • Revenge of the Night   Chapter 956 Arrival

    Nox boarded the private jet and turned to scan the group before closing the door.The aircraft eventually took off from the runway, marking the beginning of his battle.…Nox had been napping on his seat since he boarded the jet.He used to reign over Imperia. His status as Supreme Lord intimidated the major powers at that time. He was ready to reclaim what was rightfully his.Augustus sat beside him silently while Bear and Bard took the seats behind them.It would take about three hours to arrive in Imperia departing from Riverton.The time flew by. A while later, the aircraft entered Imperia.Tall buildings dotted Imperia, the country's largest economic hub and political stronghold."We've arrived, milord," Bear exclaimed excitedly as he looked out the window. They used to follow Nox wherever he went and into war, and they were honored to serve him. However, things had changed as Imperia was now under Lady Phoenix's reign.Opening his eyes, Nox stared at the familiar cit

    Augustus roared as he swung Dragonflight.Sword energy swished through the air and charged toward the invisible enemy's direction. The energy exploded one after another when they hit surfaces.Nox raised his hand to stop Augustus before the young man could take further action. "Stand down, little one."A hint of unwillingness flashed across Augustus' youthful face, but he obeyed.Nox scanned his surroundings confidently, golden light gleaming in his eyes. "I'm not going to repeat myself, so listen carefully. Reveal yourself right now, or I'll make you regret it."At that, he took a step forward. His aura shook the earth under their feet."I expected nothing less from the Great Lord of Faeast," a sinister and husky voice teased.At that moment, the ground below them split, and eight people, all dressed in black robes, emerged from the crack.Their intimidating aura indicated they were Legend Realms. Yet, their black robes covered their faces, hiding their appearance from Nox's g

  • Revenge of the Night   Chapter 958 Augustus' Wrath

    It seemed that no one had expected that Nox would kill someone, let alone a master in the Legend Realm.Nox stood firm, and his gaze was icy as he declared, "Anyone who dares to blatantly divide Faeast's territory deserves to be annihilated!"Realization struck the others.Indeed, the lanky man who Nox had just killed did hint at the desire to cause division earlier by saying that Nox could separate one part of the land and keep on with his status as a lord and marquis as long as he left Imperia.Therefore, as the Great Lord of Faeast, Nox undoubtedly would kill him after hearing his statement.Now that the other seven masters had witnessed their comrade getting killed by Nox, they all trembled in fear."Lord Nox, we respect and look up to you, but we are compelled by the power of the emperor's order to stop you! Please leave Imperia for the sake of Faeast's 5,000-year-old reign and Four Great Powers!" Another elderly man came forth and spoke.Nox burst out laughing."You're su

    In the blink of an eye, two of these eight Legend Realm masters who came to stop Nox from entering Imperia perished.The remaining six masters were all petrified.After all, a martial arts practitioner would be known to have achieved divinity once they entered the Legend Realm.Divinity was the peak of cultivation, and it could only be attained after decades and even hundreds of years of practice.But now, two of the Legend Realm masters were killed by Nox and Augustus in a snap. Although they were merely Beginner Legend Realms, they were still masters."Lord Nox, could it be that you want to defy the emperor's order and betray Faeast?" Another elder questioned Nox."Betray?" Nox scoffed."You think you have the right to mention that word? I am a Faeastian. I am and will always be a part of Faeast. I have been guarding the lands of Faeast all my life! How dare a bunch of insignificant lots like you mention betrayal in front of me?"As Nox spoke, an unparalleled murderous intent

    At the end of the art lay the climax of the source.Such was the Technique of Arts, one of the Eight Techniques Nox had mastered.Gazing at the large pit before him and the Legend Realm masters who had perished, Bear exclaimed, "Milord, your cultivation has finally returned to its peak!""Oh, what do you know? Nox has yet to wield the last two techniques! Besides, everyone on earth will die if he unleashes all eight techniques."Augustus' eyes gleamed with admiration as he looked at Nox ardently.As someone who looked up to Nox the most, he had regarded Nox as his lifelong hero since childhood.That was also the reason why he had been following Nox."You're right, kid. No one can stop Lord Nox if he unleashes all his eight techniques!"Crowned as a lord in Mystia, Nox had shocked the world with his Crowning Eight Techniques.He had unified the families, sects, and countless clans that had been scattered for thousands of years.Unexpectedly, all forces in Imperia came to stop

    Aphrodite resembled an ancient empress, clad in a majestic golden robe and crowned with a phoenix coronet.Her breathtakingly beautiful face made her even more of an empress.A flame emblem at the center of her brow added an eerie touch to her appearance."He has come to Imperia?" Aphrodite asked slowly."Yes. And our three families have already dispatched eight Legend Realms to intercept him..." the silver-haired elder from the Mullers, who was leading the group, replied."Eight? You three families underestimate the former Great Lord of Faeast too much! Forget eight. Even if you sent eighty, it would still be courting death!" Aphrodite chuckled.At these words, the faces of the three people from the Mullers, the Heffersons, and the Geoffreys, respectively, darkened."Lady, what should we do now?"Aphrodite replied coldly, "You acted on your own to stop him from entering Imperia, but now you're asking me?"The three people immediately apologized. "We are sorry. We were mistake

    When Aphrodite uttered these words, a trace of worry appeared on her face.Back then, Nox was unrivaled in Imperia as the Great Lord of Faeast. Though he was currently in a "fallen" state, he still had a large number of followers.It was simply unrealistic to eliminate all of his followers! Once they discovered that the renowned Lord Nox was still alive, it would be like a spark that would spread like wildfire.Cardinale Mousse smirked sinisterly. "Don't worry. He won't dare!"Aphrodite was puzzled. "Why?""Because he's the Great Lord of Faeast! Therefore, he would never provoke civil unrest in Faeast! If he were to rebel, he would have returned to Imperia with an army on the day you ascended to the throne instead of waiting until now!"Cardinale chuckled mysteriously as he spoke.Upon hearing this, Aphrodite seemed to understand something.Back then, she had poisoned him, and she had also seized his throne. If he didn't retaliate then, how could he now?"But regardless, his r

    Nox activated his eyes.From behind the screen came two muffled groans. The next moment, the screen shattered into splinters, revealing two Sacred Realm cultivators staggering backward under the relentless assault of Nox's powers.The pair wore golden robes adorned with intricate ancient runes, their long hair cascading over their traditional attire. Their garb unmistakably marked them as followers of the path of the ancient divine.Behind them, a woman sat poised and composed, sipping tea with an air of unbothered grace as Nox watched. Her crimson lips parted slightly as she set the teacup down, her breathtakingly beautiful face touched with an edge of sharp intensity. "Lord Nox, it's been a while," she said coolly.Nox's pupils contracted, a flicker of surprise crossing his face. He murmured under his breath, "What is she doing here? As far as I know, the Greenshade family hasn't crossed her path."The woman's keen hearing caught his muttering, and her expression darkened inst

    Nox stepped into the Greenshade estate alone.As soon as he entered the courtyard, he spotted Atlas, the Defender Lord of the North, kneeling in the middle of the yard.The sight of him kneeling was unsettling. His face twisted in rage, his body trembling, though it was hard to tell if it was from anger or exhaustion.Nox glanced at Atlas briefly, ignoring him completely as he walked past him without a second thought."Huh? Hey! Nox! Don't you care about me at all? I've been kneeling here all night!" Atlas called out, desperate for attention.Nox smirked, clearly amused. "You're hilarious. It's not like I told you to kneel here.""What? Can you at least show some conscience? I heard your family was in trouble, so I brought the Forbidden Army here right away!" Atlas huffed, his cheeks puffed out in frustration.When Nox continued walking without responding, Atlas's face twitched in embarrassment, almost as though he might burst into tears.Just then, Nox flicked his hand, dispel

    Nox unleashed his divine sense, scanning the entire perimeter of Imperia. The same scene repeated itself everywhere: borders littered with unconscious civilians, numerous car crashes, and many more trapped victims in desperate need of help."It looks like we need to break this damned formation first. Ugh, what a pain. And of course, we've got to locate the core before we can dismantle it," he muttered in frustration.The Soul Maze Formation was powerful—so much so that only those in the Legend Realm could traverse it unscathed. Imperia didn't boast many cultivators at that level, and those few were already occupied along the borders, rescuing civilians.Nox focused his Divine Sense and quickly pinpointed the core of the formation within minutes."There's a Sacred Realm guardian from the path of the ancient divine stationed at the core," Nox said telepathically to Cassian. "Grandpa, you and Kirin should head there. But don't rush—leave the rest to me."Nox's caution was clear—he di

  • Revenge of the Night   Chapter 2397 Soul Maze Formation

    Aphrodite maintained her usual stoic demeanor, but behind the scenes, she said to White Tiger telepathically, "Being enslaved by Nox's soul technique? That's quite the excuse. Surely, you know I'm naturally immune to soul techniques?"White Tiger scoffed and shot back telepathically, "They'd have chopped you into pieces by now if I hadn't done some fast talking! Do me a favor and behave yourself for once, or I'll handle you personally before they could even get the chance."Despite his grumbling, White Tiger couldn't help but feel a mix of envy and frustration over Aphrodite's extraordinary immunity. It was said that if someone's mind was honed to an unparalleled level, they could naturally resist soul techniques. Aphrodite had truly reached such a pinnacle of intellect.Aphrodite assumed command of the Nox Army as Nox's soul technique had seemingly bound her to him. She immediately ordered them and the nearby forces to retreat, leaving only the Sword Sect of Magic Mountain behind

    Kirin and White Tiger had already entered Nox's room, only to freeze at the sight of his stormy expression. Trouble was clearly brewing."Milord, what happened?" White Tiger asked cautiously, lowering his head as if trying to shrink out of sight.Could this be about them swindling Aphrodite? But they had lost everything all night long—wasn't that punishment enough?Nox announced, "Imperia has gone dark. I can't reach Azure Dragon or the others. White Tiger, contact the military zone immediately and arrange for a military aircraft. I need to leave for Imperia right now!"White Tiger instantly tensed at the news. Imperia suddenly going dark, combined with Cassian's imminent return to reunite with Penelope, felt too coincidental. Could someone be targeting the Greenshade family?"Damn those scoundrels! Understood, milord. I'll get everything ready!"He rushed off to make the arrangements.Meanwhile, Aphrodite's telepathic voice reached Nox. "Stay calm. It's not as dire as it seems.

    Nox felt choked by the sheer emotion he was feeling. Sometimes, even a thousand promises couldn't compare to the simple vow of staying together in life and death."Don't worry. There's no one in this world capable of killing me," he reassured her with a smile. All the talk about ruling the Nine States and Five Domains or becoming the emperor of the world paled in comparison to having the one he loved by his side.The destroyer ship made its way back to Faeast's inner harbor. Nineve eagerly led the group to the largest shopping mall in the area as soon as they disembarked.The marines quickly found themselves acting as her personal attendants, lugging bags upon bags of purchases. The spree lasted the entire day, only stopping when the mall finally closed for the night.Later that evening, Nox was watching a live news broadcast in the hotel.The screen showed an official spokesperson from Faeast addressing the issue of piracy on the high seas. The statement carefully emphasized the

    As the Temple Lord of the Beast Temple, Kirin was none other than the auspicious beast Kirin itself.On the other hand, Mufasa, while known as the temple's guardian, was, in cruder terms, little more than a servant to the golden lion. His master, the golden lion, paled in comparison to the Kirin in both cultivation level and bloodline.Simply put, if the golden lion were present, it would have to kneel before Kirin."What now? Why'd you drag me out? Couldn't you deal with it yourself? You're so annoying! I was just having a great chat with my students," Kirin grumbled, clearly irritated.However, he immediately shut his gob after receiving a hard whack on the head from Nox."I called you out to ask if you could gather the beasts of the Beast Temple. Tell them to withdraw from Mystia and return to Faeast for the time being. I foresee a war with the path of the martial brewing soon, and I'll need a fully armed force of sacred beasts," Nox said, his piercing gaze fixed on Kirin."Ca

  • Revenge of the Night   Chapter 2393 So Scheming

    Faeast's rise was inevitable. This belief was absolute and unshakable!At that moment, Aphrodite came to a realization that so long as she and Nox had no romantic ties, their hearts could truly be in sync.Love brought complications such as resentment and division. But without personal emotions clouding their judgment, everything they did would be for the nation alone. Take this moment, for example. The intricate trap she had laid was no longer just a scheme. Rather, it had become a necessary move to safeguard Faeast. By nightfall, the destroyer arrived at the island where Voltaic resided. Before the ship even came to a stop, Voltaic stepped onto the water, striding across the waves with Mufasa by his side. With effortless grace, he leaped onto the bow, landing before Nox on the deck. "You old bastard, what's your deal? When I tried reaching out before, you acted like you were deaf. Now that I've shown up, you're all smiles and warm welcomes? What's that supposed to mean?" No

    Just then, several pirate ships appeared on the horizon. They were from Capwave Island. Now, Nox had every reason to suspect that these pirates were nothing more than pawns, a smokescreen used by the elites of the island nations to cover their tracks. "Milord, those guys have their eyes on us. What's the call?" the captain asked. "My rule is simple. If they make a move, fire. Wipe them out. But you're the captain, so I'll leave the decision to you," Nox said. The university students onboard were all fired up, ready to take action without a second thought. The captain, mindful of the number of civilians on board, decided to attempt communication first. He picked up the radio to send a warning to the pirates.The deafening roar of jet engines ripped through the sky. A sudden transmission cut into their frequency. The voice on the radio was firm and unmistakable. "This is the Faeast Air Force. We have orders to escort your vessel. Stand by." Above them, fighter jets h
