Hearing the city lord's name, Zaid didn't look up. With a bitter smile, he said, "Is it my time already?"Zaid slowly lifted his head. First, he saw Cairo, who had an awkward smile on his face. Then, he looked up further and saw Isaac standing outside the cell door.Zaid looked at Isaac, and the two of them locked eyes. Isaac noticed that Zaid, now with half of his hair turned gray and his face covered in stubble, no longer had the charisma he once did. This made Isaac frown tightly.A flash of anger quickly passed through Zaid's eyes, but his face soon showed a helpless, bitter smile."Isaac, how do you still dare to return to Starbloom City?""Uncle, Mother asked me to come. She said the Zimmerman family line should not stop," Isaac said softly.Zaid's heart skipped a beat. He then shakily stood up and looked toward Cairo.The latter quickly bowed and said, "General Zimmerman, I've always said that Lord Drakon would definitely come back. There's no way he could forget about hi
The four commanding generals were stunned when they saw the people getting off the carriages in front of them.A girl around thirteen or fourteen years old ran up to Yuvin with tears in her eyes. "Father."Yuvin finally realized what was happening and, in disbelief, scooped up the girl in front of him. He frowned, and with a rough right hand, he gently caressed her face. He tried hard to hold back his tears as he said, "Sweetheart, what are you doing here?"Talbot quickly walked up to Isaac and bowed. "Lord Drakon, I am pleased to report that we managed to rescue the families of the four commanding generals before the Blood-Clad Guards got to them. However...""What?""Their household servants in the mansion are probably not going to make it."Isaac waved his hand and said, "There's nothing we can do about it. This outcome is already pretty good."Isaac wanted Talbot to take the risk because he was certain that the new emperor, Nathanael, would suppress these four commanding gen
Talbot was taken aback and turned to look at the two carriages parked by the roadside not far away. He had also brought his own family with him.Under the moonlight, Talbot tried to hold back his tears as he tightly grabbed Isaac's wrist. With a trembling voice, he asked, "Lord Drakon, will I ever be able to return in my lifetime?"All the princes and princesses were slaughtered, leaving only the tyrant and Princess Skylar. I still…"Isaac interrupted Talbot, patting him on the shoulder and saying in a serious tone, "Don't worry about your journey to the Kingdom of Northwing. It won't take long. Wait for my news."The day I call you back will be the day to eliminate Nathanael and Clyfford, among others."As for Princess Skylar, you don't need to look for her. I'll go."Additionally, you need to send a message to those who are unwilling to submit to Nathanael. Tell them to hold on."Upon hearing those words, Talbot bowed to Isaac, then stood up and walked toward the carriage.Af
Upon hearing Matthias' words, Clyfford raised an eyebrow and asked, "Advisor, what do you mean by that?""To be honest, when Isaac followed a member of the Zimmerman family into the Upper Martial Realm, my surveillance camera captured it."There were three men and one woman who entered the Upper Martial Realm with Isaac at that time. Besides, the woman's brother was captured earlier, and there is another woman."Clyfford immediately turned to the leader of the Blood-Clad Guards in front of him and shouted, "You heard what the advisor said. Send a message to Century City right away for a thorough investigation... No, go personally with your team to investigate in Century City."Make sure to find that woman before Isaac does."At this moment, Nathanael narrowed his eyes and said, "Lord Regent, I don't think that's necessary. The three of us should head to Century City together."Nathanael's eyes flickered with a cold glint as he continued, "As for the Blood-Clad Guards, have them i
"Lucifer?" The burly man's gaze shifted, and when he saw the man behind Isaac, his eyes narrowed."Hello, Conrad." Lucifer glared at the burly man, his eyes blazing with fury.Then he immediately leaned close to Isaac's ear and whispered, "The man who harassed Hera back then is this man's younger son.""I'm not going to say it a third time. Tell your city lord to come out and meet me," Isaac demanded coldly.Conrad Bieber yelled angrily, brandishing his sword in his right hand and ordered, "Take them down!"Over a hundred armored soldiers roared and charged, swinging their swords toward Isaac and Lucifer.Isaac simply swung the sword in front of him, creating a golden shadow sword that burst forth. The dozen or so armored soldiers charging at him were instantly cut in half at the waist.He swung his sword again, and a shadowy sword arc exploded in front of dozens of armored soldiers. Screams filled the air, and all the soldiers were instantly thrown back.The remaining 30 or so
Conrad's expression changed because the city lord had access to information sources that were far more extensive than theirs.Hence, Conrad still didn't understand what it was about Isaac that made Jerald so afraid.More importantly, this matter had not yet involved his own son."Lord Hardy, I have no idea who Hero is," Conrad said anxiously. He was aware that if this matter came to light, it would spell trouble for his son.So, he completely refused to admit it.Jerald was momentarily stunned but Isaac said, "Then I must trouble the city lord to bring all of Conrad's family here. I need to question them personally.""How dare you! I am the Special Commandant of the city. What right do you have to capture my family?" Conrad shouted angrily while pointing at Isaac.Isaac let out a cold snort, swung his long sword, and a golden streak of light instantly sliced toward Conrad's right arm.With a squelching sound, Conrad' right arm was cleanly severed from the shoulder and fell to t
As he rushed halfway, Jacky saw his father being carried down the steps and immediately stopped in his tracks.The Bieber family saw their head of the family covered in blood, and was missing an arm. They gasped in shock while some women covered their mouths and burst into tears."Father? Father, what happened? Who did this? It was you!" Jacky, with a furious expression, pointed his sword at Isaac."Tell me where Hera is, and I might spare your life!" Isaac raised his right hand, and a ball of golden spiritual energy swirled in his palm. It was directed at Jacky.Jacky looked at his extremely weak father being carried by others and shouted angrily, "That bitch is already dead, I killed her..."Before Jacky could finish speaking, a golden streak of light suddenly shot toward his throat.A head flew high into the air and then crashed to the ground, rolling to a stop in front of the members of the Bieber family. The body collapsed, and blood gushed out."My son!" Conrad, who was be
Isaac's body hovered in midair. Pointing toward a small island that was emitting a faint glow, he turned to Jerald beside him and asked, "What's going on over there?"Jerald hurriedly cupped his hands and said, "Lord Drakon, there is a rare type of tree on this island called the Six Leaf Tree. Each year during this season, the leaves of the mature trees turn into different colors."The smooth leaves reflect sunlight, creating this unusual phenomenon."Isaac nodded and asked, "How does this demon survive on this isolated island without going to Century City?""It is said that this demon drinks water from the heavens and eats fish from the sea. However, every year, there are several cases of young women going missing in Century City."It might be related to this place."Isaac squinted at Jerald, who avoided eye contact and lowered his head."In other words, he will still go to Century City. Beyond catching young women, you don't know what else he does. So let's go check it out!"
