Semua Bab The Return of the War Legate: Bab 2661 - Bab 2670

"Turn back?" The king felt like he had heard the most ridiculous joke. "There was no turning back the moment I ascended the throne. But for me, whether to turn back or not doesn't matter. I don’t mind becoming a bloodthirsty demon as long as I can achieve my goal.” He clenched his fists, causing the veins on his arms to bulge.The king had completely changed. Uriel, the prime minister, looked at him as if he were looking at a stranger. In his memory, the king used to be a gentle person, but he had now become so bloodthirsty and cruel. The Malevolent Soul Cloak was powerful, but it devoured one's heart.Uriel sighed, but he couldn’t change what was happening. Whether it was himself or the people around him, they were all on the brink of a dead end. They had no chance of survival anymore; the only way out was death...He closed his eyes as tears streamed down his cheeks. "I know you won't listen to anything I say now. I’ve devoted my whole life to this country—to serve until my death.

Preparing another lethal attack, the king’s expression turned stern once again. Then, he struck out. Countless streams of aura condensed into blade-like essences, covering the sky and attacking Adrian.Adrian didn't dare to be negligent. He was quick-witted, and he quickly shuttled through the countless attacks. Although the king was powerful, he was unable to harm Adrian.However, the king was not in a hurry. Because his attacks were continuous and unending, he could keep himself in an invincible position as long as he maintained this state. As for whether he could defeat Adrian, that was not something within his consideration at the moment.Although Adrian could also maintain a continuous barrage of attacks, he was in a disadvantageous position. His attacks seemed powerful, but his opponent's defense was impeccable. Therefore, he was unable to touch the king.Faced with such a situation, Adrian couldn't afford to be the slightest bit negligent. He relied on his advantages to stud

Adrian stood there quietly, looking like an insurmountable monument. That sense of majesty was not something that someone like the king could compare to. Looking at him, the king broke down."You… You..." The king gasped, clearly infuriated by Adrian.But he couldn’t do anything. Adrian had thoroughly defeated him. There was simply no possibility of fighting back.Adrian aimed the Divine Frost Slayer Blade at the king’s face. "What?"The king smiled bitterly, feeling an indescribable sense of misery. He just kept smiling, while Adrian stared at him. Both sides confronted each other silently as the seconds ticked by.The king’s expression suddenly became fierce. "Do you really think you’ve won? That's too naive. Silver Peak Island is a country based on bloodline. The purer the blood, the better the effect of the sacrifice. You should be aware of this, right?" he said solemnly.Hearing these words, Adrian felt chilled to the bone. Then, a sense of foreboding surged up within him. H

Adrian opened Uriel's hand and noticed that the item was an emblem. It bore an exquisite pattern, and Adrian knew it was the totem of Silver Peak Island. 'Why was he holding onto this? Did he intend to give it to me? And what does this emblem symbolize? Is it related to his final words?' Numerous questions swirled in Adrian's mind.The people of Silver Peak Island were immersed in the grief of Uriel's passing and had not noticed the emblem. 'I should keep it first and check later,' Adrian thought as he discreetly stowed away the emblem. After Uriel had been laid to rest, Adrian said, "Follow me, everyone."The people looked up, looking at Adrian with complex emotions. After a moment, they followed him and left the place.Strangely, after the explosion, the surrounding malevolent aura slowly disappeared. Adrian thought it had dissipated completely, but upon careful observation, he realized it had converged beneath the deep pit. Even though the rolling black mist was no longer p

Rupert rushed over. "What happened?!" he asked worriedly. However, Lyra had lost the ability to speak. She lay on the ground, writhing in pain and screaming.Rupert looked at Adrian and asked, “Did you do this?" His impulsiveness overshadowed any attempt to discern right from wrong. Seeing Adrian nearby, he immediately assumed it was Adrian who had hurt Lyra.Adrian shook his head and replied calmly, "It wasn't me—"However, Rupert did not believe him. "Stop defending yourself! You're the only one here. Who else other than you could have hurt her?"He swung his fist, intending to strike Adrian. Although Rupert was no match for Adrian, he had no intention of letting Adrian off. Seeing the attack coming, Adrian raised a brow. He knew Rupert was no match for him and understood that the latter’s current state was a result of impulse. Sidestepping, he easily avoided Rupert's attack.Lyra got up, shakily supporting herself, and she said, "It has nothing to do with him, Rupert…"After
