The emperor’s situation most likely had to do with the Kleins.Otherwise, he would not have come forward to save Andrius, let alone travel all this way to reveal these secrets.“It’s a long story.” Registus’ expression was complicated as he took a deep breath.Then, he organized his thoughts and started to explain, “Many years ago, the public affairs of Florence seemed to be controlled by the imperial court in Kiyoto, but in reality, the ones truly pulling the strings were the five ancient martial families operating in the shadows.”The ancient martial families!This was the first time Noir, Halle, and Andrius heard of their existence in Florence.“At that time, the five ancient martial families were the Kleins, the Swallows, the Fullers, the Sheppards, and the Anders.”After a brief pause, Registus continued, “Andrius, your original last name was Klein. You were from the Kleins, which was the leading family among the five ancient martial families!”Andrius’ eyes suddenly widen
“Because it is your destiny!”Registus’ words shocked Andrius.“First, in the events of that year, your Kleins suffered the most significant losses. As the sole survivor of the Kleins, who else but you should step forward?“Second, your master, Old Hagstorm, is actually my master too. In a way, I’m your senior whom you haven’t met in 20 years!“Lastly, back then, you didn’t survive the massacre miraculously. It was our master who risked his life amidst the chaos to save you.”Each word from Registus shook Andrius’ nerves, making him unable to calm down for a long time.These facts were things he never considered before, but they were especially important.After pondering for a moment, he asked, “Since you’ve been planning for so many years, why didn’t you reveal the truth to me earlier and let me march the Lycantroops straight into Kiyoto? Since you’re the real emperor of Florence, it should’ve been possible.”Registus sighed. “You’re unaware of this, but our master made a cert
Harpy took the address and promised solemnly, “Don’t worry, Wolf King. As long as this address exists, even if it’s in outer space, I will provide you with a response within three days.”Andrius nodded. “Go.”Harpy and the others received their orders and left.Over the next few days, Andrius tried to study the insect inside his body while organizing the information he received from Registus and waiting for Harpy’s response.Three days later, Harpy sent a message to Andrius. “Wolf King... There are no clues whatsoever regarding this address. It’s as if it doesn’t exist.”It did not exist?Andrius fell into thought upon hearing the news.Registus could not have given him a non-existent address to deceive him.In that case, it either meant that they were looking in the wrong place, or the timing was not right.“Keep monitoring it but don’t neglect the previous tasks,” Andrius instructed Harpy, then called Noir.“Noir, we’ve lost quite a bit of time. Make arrangements for us to
“Halle...” Andrius rolled his eyes and said in exasperation, “What are you doing here?”“Why can’t I be here?” Halle had a smug look on her face, and she said with a grin, “This is a helicopter, and I’m the pilot. Doesn’t it make sense for me to be here? Is there a problem? There’s no problem!”Andrius was speechless by Halle’s words.However, he still earnestly advised, “This trip is extremely dangerous, and even I can’t guarantee 100% certainty of returning. You...”Before he could finish his sentence, Halle interrupted him playfully, “Then, I’ll be buried along with you. At least, we’ll keep each other company.”Halle’s stubbornness left Andrius helpless and had no choice but to agree. He said, “However, once we arrive in Murrfield, you have to follow my orders. Otherwise, after we land, I’ll have them send you back.”Halle pouted. “Fine. You don’t have to be so mean about it.”Mean?Andrius was confused.Was he mean?What nonsense....In the Southern Wilds, news of And
However, the insect warrior did not dodge. Instead, he accurately grabbed the prisoner’s fist and crushed it with a crisp crack!Then, another punch struck the prisoner’s face and blew his head into pieces.It was incredibly violent and bloody.All the other death row prisoners could help but exchange glances in fear.The fake emperor was very pleased.This thing was indeed incredibly strong!Then, the other death row inmates fought the insect soldier, but none of them were a match. They were all defeated within three moves and had their blood drained.The lifeless corpses lay in the hall, creating a bloody scene.Whoosh...Suddenly, something unexpected happened.After the insect soldier drained the last drop of blood from a prisoner, he charged toward the fake emperor.The wind carried the scent of blood and a sharp killing intent.The fake emperor retreated in fear.Buzz, buzz...The Second War God quickly summoned the mother insect and finally managed to control the i
“First War God...” The captain of his personal guard hesitated.“What is it?”“If we’re all headed to Murrfield? What about the lady?”Conrad froze.The emperor had already used his daughter to threaten him once. If the emperor found out that he was going to save Andrius, it might lead to a second time. That was indeed a problem.Conrad sighed. “Go make the preparations first. I’ll talk to her personally.”Then, he went to his daughter’s door.Knock, knock, knock.Knock, knock, knock.Knock, knock, knock.After three series of knocks, there was still no response.A sad look flashed on Conrad’s face. She was still upset at him.“Vivi, I know you’re inside.” Conrad said bitterly, “I let your mother down, and I haven’t been there for you enough over the years.“However, what I’m about to do now is related to Florence and millions of its people.“The Wolf King is the leader of the Lycantroops and is replaceable. As long as he’s around, Florence will never fall.“If he dies i
Kelvin glanced at Noir and said bluntly, “So? Should I give you an award?”Noir choked for a moment before continuing, “We’ve come from afar and are exhausted from our journey, but we’re filled with sincerity. Do you think our journey was simple?”Kelvin said, “How hard could it have been?”Noir choked again.The doctor’s words were even more biting than the old Lycantroops’ graveyard caretaker.“Dr. Leach...” Noir’s expression darkened, but he persisted, “We can pay more if necessary. The fees can always be negotiated.”“Are you insulting me?”Kelvin’s spit almost landed on Noir’s face.Noir had no choice but to return dejectedly.Andrius watched the whole scene and was also exasperated. “It seems it won’t be easy to persuade Dr. Leach. Let’s think of another way.”The others nodded in agreement.“I have an idea.” Halle suddenly lit up and pointed at the Murrfield people waiting in line. “Why don’t we try bribing the patients in front? They can’t all be immune to money, rig
“Just sit down.”Andrius quickly identified the symptoms through observation and questioning.However, since his body was too weak, he could only let Halle perform the acupuncture.Halle had been following Andrius for some time now and had learned quite a bit about acupuncture during her free moments. She knew all the essentials.Furthermore, a beauty like her administering the acupuncture would likely be more welcomed compared to if Noir were to perform it.After two needles were inserted...“Will it really work?”“I don’t think so...”“Will he get better with just some needles?”“No way. That’s impossible!”The Murrfieldians did not have confidence in Andrius.In the Southwest region, traditional Murrfield medicine and using insects for treatment were the mainstream. Most people had never seen acupuncture before, so they were skeptical about this mysterious art.However, in the next second...The man suddenly became enthusiastic and grabbed Andrius’ hands, saying excited
Noir immediately checked the life token.It was unbroken!This meant that Andrius was still alive, and he must have ascended to the Divine Realm.Noir was relieved.Remembering his responsibility to protect Luna, he exchanged a glance with Halle, Kate, and the others before quietly leaving.Not long after, a group arrived at the Immortal Demon Palace and began their cultivation, striving to ascend to the Divine Realm as soon as possible.In an ancient and desolate location, there were grand halls, statues of fierce beasts that still seemed lifelike despite the passage of time, sky-piercing pillars, and a sea of clouds...Everything looked majestic and awe-inspiring.However, it was eerily silent, like a dead land devoid of life.Until...Whoosh!A ray of light suddenly shot from the distance, moving at an unimaginable speed and entering the soul control orb at the center of the great hall.Then, a soul apparition started to form.It was none other than Andrius.He looked
Andrius’ condition was pretty bad.He thought that with his current realm and strength, he could handle the divine tribulation and successfully ascend to the Divine Realm.However, the strength of the divine tribulation far exceeded his expectations.He seemed to have easily dealt with the first strike.In reality, the moment the divine lightning struck his palm, the destructive force within it surged through his meridians and directly attacked his soul.As expected of the divine tribulation.So, Andrius did not dare to be careless anymore and immediately gathered his immortal essence to resist.However, that was just the beginning.Each divine bolt was stronger than the last, and their deafening sounds and unstoppable destructive power left Andrius in agony.The tribulation cloud showed no signs of dissipating, too. Instead, it grew even darker and heavier, pressing down on everyone until they could not breathe.Rumble—Crackle—The thunder rumbled relentlessly, and the li
If his true form was destroyed and his soul dispersed, the life token would shatter.That would be how Noir and the others would know about his situation.For the rest of his time, since short-term improvements were difficult at his level, he did not cultivate. However, Andrius meditated every day to calm his mind and clear his thoughts.Soon, three months passed.Sensing the increasingly intense presence of the tribulation, Andrius did not hide anymore and removed the effect of the Primordial Unity Pearl that was concealing his aura.Whoosh...An immense power surged forth, and massive tribulation clouds soon formed in the sky.At that moment, Andrius sat on top of a desolate mountain.A large crowd had gathered in the distance.It had been many years since anyone in the Immortal Realm had attempted the divine tribulation. Furthermore, Andrius had deliberately invited many people to witness the event to broaden the influence of the Lunarius Alliance.“Hiss... As expected of
Andrius chuckled. “It’s not that serious. I already have a plan.”“Tell me, Andy.”“I have an extraordinary treasure. The treasure itself contains its own independent space filled with countless treasures and living beings. Furthermore, the spiritual energy inside is ten, a hundred times richer than the outside world. I plan to entrust this treasure to you. Carve out a secluded area within it for Luna to recover.”Andrius slowly explained.The extraordinary treasure he spoke of was none other than the Immortal Demon Palace.With his current strength, crossing the divine tribulation would not be a problem.The Immortal Demon Palace was an independent realm constructed by the beings of the Divine Realm. Even figures like Cedric, the Blood Demon King, the Hidden Monarch, and the others had no choice but to follow its rules.Hiding Luna inside would ensure her safety.Of course, there was a small problem. If Andrius perished in the Divine Realm, as the owner of the Immortal Demon P
It was as if the dragon soul had always been part of his body.“How strange...”Andrius muttered to himself and continued to observe.Nothing happened.The dragon soul quickly integrated into his own without any further events.It only gave Andrius a vague sense of completeness, like something had filled a gap within him.It was a mysterious and eerie feeling.Swoosh...After the dragon soul left, the massive dragon bones collapsed, turning into a pile of white ash on the ground.It was clear that the dragon bones were preserved until now solely because of the dragon soul’s presence.“Forget it.”Seeing that the matter was settled, Andrius did not dwell on it.After glancing around and finding nothing unusual, he steadied himself, walked outside, and began thinking about his next move.“Andy!”“Wolf King!”“Andrius!”As soon as they saw Andrius, Noir, Halle, Kate, and the others rushed to him.While Andrius was absorbing the dragon soul, Noir had filled them in on the
Whoosh...Just as Andrius sent a wisp of his divine sense to investigate, an apparition suddenly emerged from the dragon bones.It was vague and ethereal, yet exuded a powerful aura.Gradually, it took the shape of a dragon.Andrius raised his brows. He was not surprised, though, let alone afraid.He looked at the dragon apparition, who looked back at him.Soon, the dragon apparition spoke in confusion, “Young man, I smell an extraordinary aura on you.”Smell...Many thoughts flashed through Andrius’ mind.What could a dragon find extraordinary? Perhaps it was the scent of the Divine Realm or the Void Thunder Dragon. Could it be the Divine Realm phoenix?The next second, the dragon asked, “Are you a descendant of the phoenix?”Andrius casually raised his hand, and a wisp of flame appeared at his fingertips. It was the phoenix’s true flame.“I knew it!”The dragon apparition trembled slightly.Then, its enormous eyes showed a trace of sorrow.Andrius frowned, sensing some
The remaining power of Andrius’ punch slammed into the man’s head viciously, like a hammer smashing a watermelon, splattering everywhere.“Hiss—”The captured cultivators could not help but gasp.Wow.Who was this guy? He was able to kill a mid-stage Aureate Immortal in just a single punch. Was he even human?Even Halle, Kate, and the others were dumbfounded.It had not been long since they last saw him, but he had already grown to be this powerful. It was completely unbelievable.The members of Dragon Immortal Sect were shocked and terrified.He was too strong!Even the sect leader was killed in one punch. They would be serving themselves up on a silver platter.At that moment, everyone kneeled.“Please have mercy!”“Please spare us.”It was the sect leader who ordered us to do this...”They groveled repeatedly, banging their heads until they bled. Though they did not dare stop.What was begging as long as they could live?However, Andrius’ words threw them into despai
“Andrius!”“Wolf King!”The group was instantly overjoyed when they saw Andrius.They soon snapped back to their senses, though. This was the heart of Dragon Immortal Sect, and they were in the middle of a sacrificial ceremony.“Run!”“Andrius, leave now. Don’t worry about us!”“That’s right. Just avenge us later!”They knew Andrius was strong, but they did not know how strong.After all, Dragon Immortal Sect was a powerful sect, and the sect leader and Grand Elder were all gathered in the hall.No matter how powerful Andrius was, he could not face off against so many opponents.Andrius could not help but laugh.However, before he could explain, Noir said solemnly, “Don’t worry. With Andy’s current strength, wiping them out will be as easy as slaughtering chickens.”Halle, Kate, and the others were stunned.Noir was extremely confident. Could Andrius have really become a great power in the Immortal Realm?While they were still in doubt...“It’s him!”The disciples immed
“It’s not a shame. As long as we awaken the true dragon’s soul, we can get any woman we want in the future.”“But it’s hard to find one that’s as beautiful and graceful...”The disciples drooled and spoke lewdly, but their actions were swift. They quickly restrained Halle and the others.Of course, they were not the only sacrifices.There were many other cultivators, even some powerful fiends and Demon Kings.“Let’s start!”In the center of the altar, Bernard saw that everyone was in place and gave the order.“Understood!”Everyone started to move.The disciples restrained Halle and the others firmly.The 108 core and elite disciples began channeling immortal essence, feeding it into Bernard’s body.In an instant, Bernard grew into a towering figure like a giant.It was one of his techniques.As he continuously chanted, the dragon bones in the center of the altar trembled slightly.It was clear he was trying to awaken the dragon.“No, I don’t want to die.”“You beasts!
