LORD CHESTER COMES BACK

Only at this moment did Luza descend from the city wall to the ground.

After her feet touched the ground, Luza dared not move a muscle.

Because just now, she witnessed with her own eyes how Margaret used her Yi Xian Sword to sever the sixteen spears.

Originally, such a situation was enough to shock her.

But unexpectedly, in the instant the sixteen spears were severed, sixteen wall patrolmen were also killed one after another!

And the person who made the move was approaching from the night.

Although Luza didn’t recognize Margaret, she recognized Jun, who was walking out of the night.

The moment she saw Jun’s face clearly, Luza exclaimed without thinking.

“Jun! You’re not dead!”

Jun glanced at Luza indifferently and sneered.

“All the people on the Island of the Five Emperors have perished, including me, Jun. I won’t die!”

Luza was about to say something.

Clang!

Margaret suddenly placed her Yi Xian Sword on Luza’s neck.

Just a gentle stroke.

Luza would undoubtedly have blood splattering on the spot.

But.

Luza seemed to pay no attention to Margaret, still looking at Jun with a terrified expression, in a state of panic.

She kept speaking.

“No! It’s impossible! A day ago, the Five Envoys had already arrived at Emei. After they saw you, they would definitely kill you!”

“And… how do you know about the Island of the Five Emperors? How did you come to the Island of the Five Emperors?”

Jun smiled.

“Russell and Metalwalker, among others, are already dead.”

Luza was thunderstruck!

Margaret then asked Jun tentatively.

“Dragon Lord, should we kill this woman next?”

Jun didn’t hesitate to say.

“Take it slow, one month here is equivalent to one day outside. Take our time, kill slowly. Leave her alive for now because I need a guide!”

Only then did Margaret put away the Yi Xian Sword.

Luza widened her eyes, staring at Jun, unable to believe it.

“You came to the Island of the Five Emperors to kill people?”

Jun countered.

“What else?”

Luza dared not speak anymore.

Her fair and flawless face was filled with panic.

Jun asked calmly.

“Why did the Lord of White Emperor City send you back to Emei to kill everyone except Metalwalker?”

Luza hesitated for a moment and answered with a trembling voice.

“Internal strife.”

Jun narrowed his eyes.

“The people on the island fighting amongst themselves?”

Luza replied.

“Exactly!”

Jun fell silent for a moment and suddenly said.

“Take me and Margaret to meet your city lord.”

Luza was frightened.

“Are you going to kill her?”

Jun smiled.

“Before killing her, I’ll ask her some questions. If she behaves to my satisfaction, I might spare her life.”

Luza shook her head.

“I didn’t see her this time. She only left me a letter!”

Saying that, Luza immediately took out a letter from her armor.

But before she could hand it to Jun, she felt it slip from her fingers.

When she looked again, the letter was already in Jun’s hands.

Jun opened the letter, and inside was a piece of paper with only one line written on it: “Kill everyone except Metalwalker.”

After reading it, Jun kept the letter and asked Luza, “Is Metalwalker someone from White Emperor City?”

Luza replied, “Yes.”

Jun asked again, “Metalwalker, or you, what level are you at on the Island of the Five Emperors in terms of martial strength?”

Luza hesitated for a moment and answered, “I can rank in the top twenty before entering White Emperor City.”

Jun asked again, “What realm is the Lord of White Emperor City in?”

Luza replied, “Ethereal Core, Third Layer.”

Jun frowned and said, “So weak?”

Luza’s face twitched.

Ethereal Core, Third Layer!

Weak?

Luza secretly observed Jun, shocked beyond measure.

When they were on Mount Emei before, she could clearly see his actual strength, but he was only at the First Layer of Ethereal Core.

And now, when she looked at him again, she couldn’t sense any hint of martial aura from him.

What realm was he currently in?

Lost in astonishment, Luza was still pondering when Jun asked another question, “What is the name of the Lord of White Emperor City?”

Luza replied, “Shannon Shaw.”

Jun was slightly startled.

It turned out she shared the same surname as his wife.

Jun then asked, “Is the Lord a man or a woman?”

Luza answered, “A woman.”

Jun continued, “I heard Gabriel say that the previous Lord of White Emperor City was a Kunlun Slave. So, both she and you are from the West?”

Luza replied, “She was born on the Island of the Five Emperors, but her skin and appearance are like Western women. However, she behaves in the manner of an Easterner in her daily interactions.”

Changing the topic, Jun asked, “Do you have your own residence in this White Emperor City?”

Luza answered, “Yes.”

Jun said coldly, “Lead the way.”

Luza hesitated to speak further, but Jun ignored her and instructed Margaret, “Take care of these bodies on the ground.”

Margaret immediately took out a tracking zither and retrieved a small porcelain bottle from it.

She then dripped the liquid from the bottle onto the bodies of Gabriel and the others.

Soon, white smoke rose from their bodies and quickly dissipated in the wind.

Erasing all traces. Margaret looked at the weapons on the ground and asked Jun, “What should we do with these weapons?”

Jun gestured casually. Swish! Dozens of broken spears and over ten swords soared into the air and shot towards the sea outside the city in a swift motion.

Luza witnessed this scene, and his emotions remained unsettled for a long time.

However, at that moment, Luza was once again astonished by what he saw before his eyes.

He saw Jun’s face undergoing a visible transformation at an astonishing speed, turning into the likeness of Russell.

Soon, Luza speculated about Jun’s intentions. He intended to enter White Emperor City in the guise of Russell.

But what would he do once he entered? He had just mentioned that he wanted to kill someone.

So… who was the person he intended to kill?

As Luza wondered in disbelief, Jun smiled and said, “What are you waiting for?”Text content © NôvelDrama.Org.

Luza took a deep breath and cautiously walked toward the city gate.

Soon, under Luza’s guidance, Jun and Margaret were led into a street within the city.

Looking around, the buildings in the city exuded an ancient charm.

However, due to the late hour, the street was eerily quiet.

Jun asked Margaret softly, “Does the scenery here differ from when you came here years ago?”

Margaret replied in a hushed voice, “No, it remains the same.”

Jun continued, “How much do you know about the atmosphere here?”

Margaret answered, “It is akin to the feudal dynasties of ancient times. It is divided into six regions: White Emperor City, Vermilion Bird City, Green Emperor City, Black Tortoise City, Yuanwu City, and a central city located on the Island of the Five Emperors called Five Emperors City.”

Jun nodded and then asked Luza, “What is the total population of the island?”

Luza replied, “I only know that the population of White Emperor City is approximately 190, 000.”

Jun raised an eyebrow and inquired further, “Why did the island have only 170, 000 people last year? Where did the rest of the population come from?”

Luza spoke without reservation, “Every March, the Five Emperors City holds a gathering called the Spirit Assembly. Those qualified to participate in the Spirit Assembly disappear for half a year starting from March each year. As for where they go, it is unknown. I speculate that it should be within the Dragon Vein Mountain located in Five Emperors City.”

Jun smiled and said, “Why are you so obedient?”

Luza retorted, “Do I have any other choice?”

Jun sneered, “Well, you certainly know how to adapt to the circumstances.”

Luza fell silent for a moment and suddenly said, “I hope you can destroy this Island of the Five Emperors.”

Jun asked, “Why?”

Luza said softly, “Under the rule of the kings on this island, everyone is a slave. Countless castrated men and women forced into brothels exist here, and among them are the survivors of your Chester Ancient Clan.”
