Chapter 531: Chester Ancient Clan, Leona!
After Margaret’s hand was severed, she let out a cry of pain but soon stopped making any sound. Instead, she sneered at Samanthab behind her and spoke, “Your calculations were wrong! I, Margaret, am merely a servant of Jun! My death means nothing to him!”
Margaret gritted her teeth and added, “Besides, I have already unleashed all my hidden potential through forbidden techniques. Even if no one else lays a hand on me, I won’t survive for more than three hours!”
Samanthab chuckled. “You want to die? Well, I, Samanthab, won’t allow it! If you die, I lose a valuable piece on my chessboard! I don’t believe Jun considers you an insignificant servant.”
With that, Samanthab tightened her grip on Margaret’s neck vertebrae, applying more force. In an instant, Margaret let out another agonizing scream as if her spine had been crushed. But at the same time, Margaret felt a surging airflow entering her body from her neck.
“Ah!!!” Margaret screamed in agony, her eyes shining and shooting up towards the sky. Her entire body radiated a dazzling light. When the light subsided, all of Margaret’s injuries had completely healed.
The wound on Margaret’s right wrist sprouted flesh at a visible speed until it fully recovered. However, her severed right hand remained missing.
At this moment, Margaret sensed that her extraordinary meridians were reborn within her body. The true energy within her was surging, exceeding what it had been before.
If Margaret had previously stepped into the realm of a transcendent being by unleashing her lifelong potential through forbidden techniques, then at this moment, her cultivation far surpassed that, several times stronger.
Just then, Samanthab spoke again. “Although I haven’t cultivated the Infinite Ultimate True Skill, I’m quite adept at the Pure Yin True Skill. Today, as long as I don’t kill you, Margaret, you won’t be able to die unless Jun himself wants you dead.”
“So, should you thank me for passing on the Pure Yin True Skill to you, or should you thank me?” Samanthab’s words left Margaret with mixed feelings of joy and worry.
She wasn’t sure whether to be happy that she had received the true transmission of the Pure Yin True Skill through Samanthab or worried that her life was now under Samanthab’s control, with her being used as leverage to threaten Jun.Content © NôvelDrama.Org.
Indeed, Samanthab paid no further attention to Margaret and instead fixed her gaze upon Jun. She giggled and asked, “Jun, you’ve witnessed my abilities. Do you still think I’m joking?”
Jun coldly stared at Samanthab without uttering a word. Filled with resentment, Samanthab gritted her teeth and said, “Tell me the formula for the Infinite Ultimate True Skill, or else I will kill Margaret right in front of you.”
Jun responded coldly, “If I tell you, will you spare Margaret?”
Samanthab smiled coquettishly. “Of course! I, Samanthab, keep my word! If you agree to my condition, not only will I spare Margaret, but I will also give you a prescription that will alleviate your suffering during the midnight hour. It’s a deal worth considering, don’t you think?”
As she spoke, Samanthab seemed to have thought of something else, and her smile grew even more pronounced. “Alternatively, we can exchange hostages. You hand over your Uncle Fabian to me, and I’ll give Margaret to you.”
Just as Jun was about to say something, Margaret suddenly interjected, “Dragon Lord! Don’t believe this wicked woman’s nonsense! I, Margaret, am willing to die! Seeing the Imperial City in such a state today, I’ve had enough in this lifetime!”
Jun took a deep breath. He never expected Margaret to be so righteous. Samantha squinted at Jun and smiled, saying, “Feeling troubled? Well then, let’s stay here and see who can outlast the other. It would be best if we can endure until midnight. By then, I might not even need to say anything, and you will kneel before me, begging me to give you the antidote to relieve the poison in your body.”
Unexpectedly, as soon as Samantha finished speaking, Jun uttered a sentence. “First, release Margaret and hand her right hand over to me.
Afterward, I will transmit to you the Infinite Ultimate True Skill.”
Samantha was slightly taken aback, while Margaret widened her eyes and stared at Jun without blinking.
They never imagined that Jun would truly offer his life in exchange for using the Infinite Ultimate True Skill. His life meant so much to him, even as a servant.
At that moment, Samantha sneered and said, “Jun, stop playing tricks with me. If you falsely transmit the technique or refuse to transmit it, there will be nowhere for me to shed tears. How about this? Let’s wait until midnight, and then you can beg me yourself!”
Jun hesitated for a moment before softly saying, “Fine, let’s wait.”
Samantha chuckled, “If you can make it through tonight until midnight, I’ll admit you’re a real man. By then, I won’t even need you to ask-I will naturally return Margaret to you. But if you can’t hold on, I’m sorry to say that not only will you die, but everyone here will die too!”
“Oh, right! I almost forgot one person. That person is Kayla, Fabian’s wife. Now she is also in my hands! With so many chips in my hand, what can you use to negotiate with me?”
Ignoring Jun’s reaction, Samantha continued speaking. However, Fabian couldn’t contain himself any longer. “What? You said Kayla is in your hands?! She, she’s not dead?”
Samantha responded, “Fabian, it’s not your turn to speak right now! Of course, if you personally reveal the general outline of the Infinite Ultimate True Skill, I can let you see your wife!”
“These years, she has been on the Island of the Five Emperors, and I have treated her well! I am not like that madman Casey! Since I have something I want, I won’t resort to extreme measures!”
With that said, Fabian fell silent. Jun calmly stated, “Tell her that as a man of the Chester Ancient Clan, I chose the path of martial arts for the sake of my country and my family. The mere Infinite Ultimate True Skill is nothing significant. Human lives are more important.”
Fabian then questioned Jun, “If the Infinite Ultimate True Skill falls into the hands of this wicked woman, how many people in this world will die?”
Jun softly replied, “If she does evil, I will kill her! But first, I need to make sure my Aunt is safe!”
Fabian’s eyes turned red with fury. Suddenly, Jun shouted, “Give it to her!”
Fabian didn’t say a word. Samantha, seeing that things were progressing, narrowed her eyes and mockingly said to Jun, “Don’t shift this difficult responsibility onto your uncle. You have also cultivated the Infinite Ultimate True Skill. Why don’t you speak up?”
Jun was in a dilemma. He had only trained in the Thunderous Extradition Technique, a part of the Infinite Ultimate True Skill. As for the general outline of the Infinite Ultimate True Skill, he didn’t know it yet.
But then, at that very moment, a white figure suddenly appeared on the distant city wall. It was Leona of the Chester Ancient Clan.
