Dawn approached, and only the faint dark red sparks of the fire under the mountain remained as if a strong gust of wind could blow it off. Caspian faced the stone wall, expressionless. Dwayne, who was nailed in front of him, was on his last breath. The severe injuries, blood loss, and fright would be the end of him. The utter misery and the pain accompanied by fear made Dwayne secretly curse at himself. Would it not be great if he were a weak mortal instead of a warrior? That way, he would be dead and free long ago, rather than ending up in that situation. "I've… named them all… Your Highness…" Dwayne uttered with incredible difficulty. With every word he said, it felt as if a blunt knife scratched his throat. However, Dwayne had to find strength and say he wanted to die."Kill… me… please…" Dwayne pleaded weakly. Nonetheless, Caspian only glanced coldly at Dwayne and asked indifferently, "Dwayne, have you been to the hellhole prison?""I…" Just as Dwayne spoke one word, he
The young eunuch recalled the matter and said a few names. Soon, Morris began to frown, and the uncomfortable feeling in his heart got more intense. "Tell me again, what are the official positions of these lords?" Morris asked.The young eunuch was very clever. He listened carefully to every word that Morris said on usual days, and he remembered them by heart. That time, he could finally do Morris a favor. After pondering for a moment, the young eunuch named the few lords. Morris's frown got deeper, and his piercing voice was somewhat trembling as he commented, "That's strange. These lords should've arrived in the capital five days ago. Why's there no news about them? Moreover, they… they—"The young eunuch pricked up his ears, wanting to listen carefully. However, he found that Morris suddenly turned quiet. When the eunuch looked over, he was surprised to find Morris's face as white as a sheet, and his complexion was horrible. Moreover, Morris's mouth, which was sunken because
When Caspian heard the voice, his heart immediately trembled as he was too familiar with the sound! Then, Caspian turned around hastily, looking in the direction of the sound. Soon, Caspian found that not far from him, a guy with a big beard and bronze skin grinned at him.Although it was a burly middle-aged man, those shrewd eyes betrayed his true identity! When the middle-aged man noticed that Caspian found him, he turned his face away and looked at the passing festooned vehicles. On the other hand, Caspian pondered for a moment and did not step forward. Instead, he turned around and got out of the crowd.After waiting for a while, the middle-aged man could not help but turn his head to look again when he realized Caspian did not approach him. As a result, he saw Caspian leave the crowd and walk toward the distance."This guy!" The middle-aged man grunted, gritted his teeth, stomped his foot, and hurriedly chased after Caspian. Keeping a distance of about 50 meters from Caspian,
Standing on the roof, Caspian saw Daisy walking out of the alley and was immediately stopped by two young men in blue clothes. As they spoke, Caspian could sense Daisy's impatience. However, the two young men did not seem to care about her attitude at all. After questioning her, they finally let her leave. Caspian's eyes fell on the two young men."So, they’re the Great Oceans Sect's disciples… Both of them are entry-level first-stage Pulse Control Realm cultivators." Then, Caspian carefully recalled some cultivators he noticed while walking in the capital these days, and some of them were indeed wearing the blue gown. It now appeared that it was the Great Oceans Sect's attire."There are quite a lot of people around… Thankfully, I'm prepared." Caspian pondered for a moment and jumped off the roof. "Everything will be clear in six days."…On the 28th of January, the much-anticipated day finally came. From the moment the sun appeared over the horizon, the entire Salleria's capi
No one knew when that person appeared, nor how he got here through the layers of encirclement, let alone the purpose of the person's provocative behavior. Among the tens of thousands of people at the scene, perhaps only Daisy realized something.Daisy smiled faintly and thought, "It's clearly within your character to do this." Even though she thought so, there was a hint of worry in Daisy's eyes. After all, Caspian appearing in front of everyone was equivalent to telling them, "I'm here! Come and kill me!" Nonetheless, Daisy understood Caspian's emotions. That kind of injustice and grievance, as well as the feeling of wanting an answer which was suppressed for so long, needed such a release!Just when Daisy was being emotional, the figure walked several dozen meters forward. His pace was not fast but steady as if it were talking, and everyone's breathing and heartbeat were involuntarily affected.Seeing the man getting closer, Edgar's cheeks twitched under the crown. Morris, who
As if the thunder cracked the ground, the entire square surged with a deafening roar. Except for a few, almost all of the tens of thousands of people at the scene appeared pale and fearful. They covered their ears with their hands and looked at Caspian with horror. Caspian's voice was like the roar of a dragon that pierced through the sky. At that moment, a man in blue standing not far from Edgar suddenly opened his eyes and glanced at Caspian. However, he soon shut his eyes and stopped paying attention, as if nothing happened.Edgar fumed with rage, and the flame in his eyes almost solidified and gushed out. "Someone, take him down for me! He made a big mistake and didn't repent, yet he still dares to say nonsense today. No one can save you today!"Edgar also felt the change in Caspian. The sudden appearance of a dead person was enough to shock him, but Caspian's roar made Edgar feel a grave threat."Let me do the honor!" Someone in the crowd shouted. The next second, a mid
"Such a criminal must be killed!""Kill him, and we'll get promoted greatly!" "How dare he sabotage my Salleria's ceremony?! He must be killed!" "I thought he was a hero before, but he turns out to be a devil!""If it weren't for His Majesty's wiseness, we wouldn't have seen his true colors!"In an instant, dozens of guards rushed to Caspian. Beneath their armors, their faces revealed their distaste for Caspian.Caspian never intended to prove his innocence with his return that time, he just wanted a statement from Edgar. However, seeing the looks of these guards glaring at him, Caspian could not help but sigh. Nonetheless, he quickly recovered from those emotions. "I’ve already stepped on the gateway to immortality. The reason for my return is just to achieve enlightenment. Although they used to be the people I needed to protect, they are now my enemies. Since they are enemies, there's no need to be merciful. If I become an overly cautious person after entering the journey
Caspian's eyes narrowed slightly when he saw a few cultivators in blue walking out of the crowd and facing him from a distance."The Great Oceans Sect, I've waited for you for a long time!"The leading Great Oceans Sect's cultivator was an elder-level figure in the sect, but his realm was not high. He was only an entry-level second-stage Pulse Control Realm cultivator. However, the realm was unmatched in a place where cultivators were rare in Salleria.For the 30th anniversary of Edgar's accession to the throne, because of Carson, the Great Oceans Sect also sent a group to congratulate him. Moreover, it also had the purpose of strengthening Salleria's name. After all, whether it was Salleria or the surrounding counties, the True Martial Realm was the pinnacle of their realm, and cultivators were extremely rare.Besides the Great Oceans Sect's elder, about twenty or so first-stage Pulse Control Realm disciples came along. These disciples were naturally tasked with the responsibility
