Divine Emperor of Death

In a moment of despair, Jackson Lars subconsciously called the most important person he could rely on, however, even surpassing his expectations, Imryll Berilan responded almost instantly to his cry as she tried to save him by killing the one who called himself son of Jawan.

However, fate was cruel.

She got captured as a result!

Because of who?

It was none other than his fault! The feeling of extreme guilt encroached him, threatening to swallow him whole.

His heart was calling for help, however, in reality, he had harmed her greatly!

Young Leader Baris spoke as he noticed the groomʼs reaction, ”You seemed to know her... Could it be that she is also your woman?”

Combined with how he called out her name, he was able to garner that she was someone important to the groom.

Jackson Larsʼs consciousness was grabbed when he heard those words. He instantly trembled, giving out the emotions that he tried to hide deep in his mind.

”So she is your woman!” Young Leader Barisʼs cold expression turned into one of a smile but then his voice turned icy, ”Iʼll be sure to treat her later with my utmost care...”

Jackson Lars could no longer maintain a blank face as his face turned into one of pleading while Imrull Berilan fainted from the pain.

Young Leader Barisʼs eyes lit up with a sense of depravity. He finally got what he wanted from the man, so it was time to enjoy his woman while making him watch.

This was the sinister plan he devised after being cockblocked by the members of the Arc Song Mercenaries.

However, powerful energy undulations suddenly flew past them.

Young Leader Baris narrowed his eyes thinking that their timing couldnʼt be any worse. However, he set out to do something and he would do it in one way or another.

Since his father was there, everything would go well. Even if some contingencies emerged, the Grand Elder was there, so he wasnʼt worried.

He instantly sent a Soul Transmission to Kron, ”Protect me...”

Kron did nothing but not his head in reply because he too had sensed the undulations in the direction of the Royal Palace.

Young Leader Baris sneered because he thought those idiots would in no way be able to find him here.

He turned to face Katrine Blackwell and tore apart her red silky robes, revealing her inner-wear.

”Mmphph!~” Katrine cried as she tried to struggle but she still couldnʼt move.

It was a nightmare, an absolute one.

ʼI donʼt want this, I want to die! Someone save me!ʼ Her thoughts were rampant and chaotic as she wept and sniffed continuously.

Young Leader Baris held her cheek and leaned in on her as he wanted to thoroughly taste her luscious lips first.

”Arghh!” Jackson Larsʼs eyes turned bloodshot again as blood leaked from his lips. He clenched his teeth so hard that blood started to leak out from his gums. His eyes bore pure hatred and malice as he grunted.

Young Leader Baris smiled as he heard the groom go crazy. Just when he was about a few centimeters away from her lips, he suddenly stopped.

However, it wasnʼt he who stopped but a hand with five fingers grasping his hair, holding his head from kissing the brideʼs lips.

”You still didnʼt die?”

Young Leader Baris jolted as he realized that he didnʼt even sense a presence that existed this close to him. His eyes shot towards the one who caught him in trepidation when he suddenly noticed a fist flying towards him.

*Boom!~*

His face caved in whole his lower jaw completely broke but he wasnʼt sent flying. His left eye flew out of his socket as blood spurted out like a fountain.

A person who wore a raven-shaped golden mask held Young Leader Barisʼs hair as a sense of disgust flashed past his eyes.

======

A bang deeply resounded in his head and all cognition of his surroundings turned blank as he felt his brain deeply tremble.

ʼWhere am I?ʼ

Young Master Baris thought before everything came back to him in an instant and at the same time, immense pain flooded his mind.

”Aaaahhhhh!!!!” He screamed in pain but however, he struggled was for naught as there was a hand grasping his short hair.

Nevertheless, he twisted his head away from the hand and the strands of hair were ripped off from his scalp causing him extreme pain. He simultaneously staggered and fell towards the ground as he pressed his head with his palm.

Noticing the empty patch of space on his head, his lips trembled in anger.

He was bald again!!

An enraged scream escaped his mouth, ”Kron!!!!”

However, the help he expected never came but the people around him all collapsed as the entire hall echoed once with a resounding thud before turning silent.

He saw Kron, as well as his cronies collapse as if they were sick. Even the people of the Blackwell Family and the people who were neutrally watching them collapsed to the ground.

Nothing was near them yet they all collapsed and never woke up as if they were all dead.

However, a certain woman remained standing as she shot her gaze in all directions, not understanding why everyone other than her had collapsed. Her trembling indicated the trepidation she felt in her heart.

Young Master Baris saw the woman, however, he cast his gaze at his hope and shakingly spoke again, ”...Kron?”

With his remaining eye which was bloodshot, seeing that he received no answer, he instantly shuddered as he felt this situation to be a nightmare.

His gaze couldnʼt help but fall in the person who wore the golden raven-shaped mask and the feeling of trepidation invoked his heart into a pounding frenzy.

The next thing he recognized was his sight going blurry before he lost consciousness!

======

Lucia looked at the sight in front of her with a pale expression on her face. Apprehension filled her mind and for a moment, she didnʼt know how to respond to this situation.

A man with a bulk build stood in front of her with a lazy smile on his face. He looked like a bodybuilder who was on steroids.

While she had managed to get past the guards to head into the prison, she had been finally got caught by this person in front of her!

Her Peak-Level Sky Grade Stealth Robe only granted her stealth, it didnʼt grant her complete invisibility but made her more stealthy, making her undetectable to the eyes of the ones without the necessary Soul Forging Cultivation or senses.

The fact that this bulky man in front of managed to find her meant that he was undoubtedly at the Adult Soul Stage or above.

However, even then it wouldnʼt result in her getting caught.

The only reason she was caught lied in the structure of the prison. The pathway that led to the end was straight and narrow, filled with traps and formations which if stepped on can turn into offensive or sealing formations.

She took much pain avoiding them but when she had approached this man in close proximity to get past him and find Lucas, she finally got exposed.

Both Lucia and Glyn subconsciously took a step back with solemn expressions on their faces.

”Why are you running?” The bulky manʼs eyes lit up as he saw the two intruders, however, he couldnʼt identify the two of them since these two wore unique black robes over them even with his Adult Soul Stage Soul Sense.
