Chapter 435: King Roscoe’s Death, Sean Returns
After being punched by Lord Snow and kicked dozens of times by Luna Porter, King Roscoe’s already battered body was in excruciating pain. Yet, Luna Porter chose this moment to tell him the truth, word for word, as if she was sprinkling salt on his wounds, as if she was using a sharp dagger to slice his flesh. The physical and psychological double torment was too much even for the ruthless King Roscoe to bear!
“Ah!”
“Ahhhhhh!”
King Roscoe writhed like a worm, desperately trying to sit up, only to find tragically that he was now crippled, unable to move an inch as he lay there. He opened his mouth to speak, only to discover even more tragically that he had lost the ability to utter a word, and could only let out ghostly wails of anguish!
Miserable!
One misstep leads to eternal regret!
It was just a moment’s lapse, just a moment’s difference – the left was heaven, the right hell. If King Roscoe had not been so arrogant and impatient, so ruthless and heartless, treating women as clothes and lives as grass, if he had not resolutely abandoned Luna Porter and the child in her belly, then as Luna said, he should be enjoying the blessings of power and pleasure.
One wrong step, each step wrong! The contrast before and after was like heaven and earth!
Luna sat next to King Roscoe, head lowered, just watching him silently writhe in pain, watching him wish for death but unable to die. A faint, cruel smile lingered on the corners of her mouth, while her eyes concealed a layer of misty tears gathering without a sound!
To be honest, this was not the outcome Luna wanted to see – mutually assured destruction, jade and stone burning together! But there was no other way. King Roscoe had chosen the wrong path, and he had to pay the price for his mistakes.
Five minutes. King Roscoe struggled desperately for about five minutes until his throat was hoarse and his strength spent. Finally unable to scream or struggle any longer, he gradually quieted down.
“Not yelling anymore?”
“Not screaming anymore?”
King Roscoe had given up, exhausted his voice, but Luna had no intention of letting him off so easily. As soon as he calmed down, she said with a laugh, “Just a few fleeting minutes of power and pleasure, a chance misfortune of losing a child – that was all it took to make you heartbroken. As expected of the man I, Luna Porter, loved – truly heartless and ruthless!”
“Since that’s the case…”
“Let me give you some more spice!”
With that, Luna suddenly raised her hand, pointing to the blood pool on the sacrificial altar across from them, and said, “Dear Emperor, do you know, because of your wrong choice just now, how many people have died?”
“You think…”
“The only one you heartlessly killed was the child in my belly, your own flesh and blood?”
“No!”
“You’re wrong!”
“In addition to the child you ruthlessly slaughtered as a sinful beast, all the royal family will die! The Third Prince, Adam Adam, the Seventh Prince, the Eighth Prince, and all their direct descendants, all must die!”
“They…”
“Like you, will all accompany our child in death!”
“What’s more…”
“They’re already dead!”
“Do you know? The surging blood in the sacrificial pool is all royal blood! Underneath is nothing but royal bones! Before you came, while we were making love three times in the palace, Lord Snow and Lord Fisher had already captured them and thrown them into the blood pool, using their lives and blood to prepare this feast for you, paving the road for your Bright Realm dream!”
“So!”
“Tonight!”
“All the blood in this underground altar is royal blood! All the dead are royal!”
“It was you!”
“You implicated them, you killed them!!!”
Luna was vicious, so she didn’t tell King Roscoe everything at once. When he was in pain, she sat watching him suffer. When he recovered a little, she immediately threw out another shock, making him hurt even more.
Torture!
She wanted to torture King Roscoe bit by bit, to let him know the consequences of abandoning, betraying and deceiving her!
Sure enough, when Luna’s words entered King Roscoe’s ears, his breathing, which had just stabilized, quickened again. Bloodshot eyes fixed on Luna with resentful hatred, like the deadly gaze from the depths of hell – truly terrifying!
But facing King Roscoe’s death stare, Luna remained expressionless, the faint cruel smile still on her lips. She snorted, “You want to kill me, kill my child, so I’ll kill you, kill your whole family, your whole clan!”
“That’s fair!”
“Isn’t it?”
“You royals are all cruel and ruthless, you all deserve to die. By killing you all, I’m avenging my child and serving justice for the Shirine Empire’s people – perhaps I’m even accumulating some karma! Hahaha…”
Luna laughed like a madwoman!
“Originally!” After laughing for a while, Luna continued, “If you had chosen me, no one would have had to die – not our child, not you, not the royal family!”
“But now…”
“You will die, just die, it’s a pity…”
“You wanted to be Emperor of Shirine but you can’t, I just wanted to be your woman but will instead become Empress of Shirine. Things often turn out opposite to expectations – how interesting!!!”
Pfff! As soon as Luna said this, King Roscoe spurted out another mouthful of old blood!
Clearly, Luna’s words were killing him!
Empress! This vicious woman Luna actually had wild ambitions to become Empress of Shirine, a usurper! And she planned with Lord Snow and Lord Fisher to divide up the Shirine Empire and become vassals of the North Kingdom!!!
How could King Roscoe not be angry?
The royal family had always been the orthodox rulers of Shirine. Whether it was King Roscoe fighting with Prince Ashby for the Eastern Palace, or seizing the throne from King Ron, it was just infighting within the royal clan itself. No matter who won or lost, the Shirine Emperor would always come from the royal family!
But now???
The royals were massacred by this lunatic Luna. King Roscoe lost by inferior skills, he would die, but also lost the country – how could he face his father King Ron in the underworld? How could he face his royal ancestors?
He, King Roscoe, was destined to become a sinner of the royal family, an eternal sinner of the entire Shirine Empire!!!
And so… Luna sat there and spoke softly and slowly, each word like a knife, while King Roscoe lay there unable to avoid listening, occasionally spurting blood as if to accompany Luna’s words. Lord Snow sat steadfastly atop the jade pillar in the blood pool, madly absorbing the thick bloody aura around him, striving to break through to the long-awaited legendary realm. Lord Fisher was backing him up, but even he wanted to spit blood hearing Luna’s words!
Damn! What kind of freak had he recommended to the Hall of Jade back then???
This madwoman Luna was too frightening!!!
Time passed strangely and gloomily until after 1 am, when a sudden loud bang shattered the eerie atmosphere!
Boom!!!
The explosive sound was like muffled thunder, without any warning. It startled both Lord Fisher and Luna Porter, and came from none other than Lord Snow sitting on the jade pillar!
Suddenly, accompanied by the loud bang, Lord Snow, who had been sitting motionless like an old monk in meditation, flew up with hair and clothes fluttering. A cold gale appeared out of thin air around his body, sweeping up all the thick bloody aura into the gale. With him at the center, an astonishing blood wind wall formed, the scene indescribably shocking!!!
“This is…” Even with Lord Fisher’s strength nearing the Bright Realm, he couldn’t withstand the blood wind’s assault. His eyebrows jerked up, pupils contracted, chin quivered, and heart thumped as he quickly retreated from the blood pool altar and landed next to Luna Porter and King Roscoe. Staggering a few steps before steadying himself, face full of shock, he said, “Brother Shan… he succeeded!”
“He broke through!”
“The Soul-Devouring Great Formation lives up to its reputation, its power is indeed extraordinary!!!”
Previously, Lord Snow and Lord Fisher knew of the underground altar’s existence and had heard of the Soul-Devouring Great Formation, but did not know how much power and effect it could exert, whether it could help them take the final half step to the long-awaited legendary realm!
So!
When they entered the capital this time and secretly collaborated with Luna Porter, they only tried with a tentative attitude, without full confidence!
And now! After just half a night, Lord Snow succeeded in breaking through, a speed far exceeding Lord Fisher’s expectations. Shocked, the first thought flashing through his mind was: “If Brother Shan succeeded, broke through! Then what about me???”
“What Brother Shan could do…”
“I can too!”
Lord Fisher was extremely excited!
“Good!”
“Too good!”
Luna Porter stood up and bowed from afar to Lord Snow in the blood wind, smiling. “Congratulations to Lord Snow for fulfilling his long-cherished wish and entering the Bright Realm!”
Then she turned to look at Lord Fisher beside her and added, “It seems I should congratulate Lord Fisher in advance too!”
“Hahaha…”
Lord Fisher laughed out loud. “Miss Porter, don’t worry, we will remember this favor! In the future when we three divide up the Shirine Empire and you control this imperial city with the blood pool altar as your possession, when you reach the Complete Stage one day and want to assailt the Bright Realm, Brother Shan and I will definitely return the favor and come to back you up personally!!!”
Since the three of them belonged to the Hall of Jade, Lord Fisher did not consider eliminating Luna Porter due to the Hall’s rules.
Doing so would violate the rules and cause even bigger trouble!
“Then I’ll thank Lord Fisher in advance!”
Luna Porter nodded with a smile, then turned back to look at King Roscoe still lying on the ground. She sighed, “It’s a pity that such good news can’t be shared with His Majesty the Emperor…”
At this time, King Roscoe lay motionless, eyes wide with indignation and resentment, but no longer breathing.
Dead!
Dead as a doornail!
Killed by Luna Porter’s mouth!
Died with eyes wide open!
Lord Fisher also glanced back at King Roscoe’s corpse, mouth twitching slightly. He thought, Miss Porter, that’s about enough right? However deep your hatred and resentment, you suffocated the dignified Emperor to death and that’s still not enough? Do you plan to drag him back from the gates of hell and suffocate him again???
Damn!
You madwoman almost makes me want to smash you with a punch!
About ten minutes later, the blood wind surrounding Lord Snow’s body gradually dissipated, but Lord Snow did not open his eyes. Maintaining his meditation state, his body suddenly shifted through the air, leaving the jade pillar in the blood pool. He said, “Lord Fisher, I have broken through but need to consolidate. I’m afraid I can’t back you up personally!”
After speaking, he slowly landed five meters away on the opposite side of the altar!
“No problem!”
Lord Fisher laughed. “I’ll do it myself!”
As soon as his voice fell, Lord Fisher impatiently shot upwards in a blur, appearing on top of the jade pillar in the next moment. Sitting cross-legged like Lord Snow did earlier, he released his Bright Energy, perceiving the intricacies of the Soul-Devouring Great Formation and madly absorbing the thick bloody aura around him, assaulting the Bright Realm!
Thud!
Luna Porter turned around, bent down to grab King Roscoe’s cold stiff corpse and ruthlessly threw it into the surging blood pool without hesitation. “Farewell forever, Your Majesty!”
“Farewell forever!”
“My love!!!”
In an instant, King Roscoe’s corpse was swallowed by the churning blood, disappearing without a trace, as if he had never existed in this world…
…
3:30 am!
While Lord Snow was stabilizing his realm, Lord Fisher was assaulting the Bright Realm, and Luna Porter sat alone by the blood pool in a daze, while many citizens of the capital had already fled and the huge city became quiet again, the waning moon hung high as cold moonlight draped down.
Suddenly!
Dozens of luxury carriages drove into the capital in the fuzzy moonlight!
Sean!
He’s back after half a year!!!Property of Nô)(velDr(a)ma.Org.
