“That’s classified!”

“You have no right to ask!”

King of Night stopped there and did not tell Sean the details. Instead, he changed the subject, “If I’m not mistaken, you set up this situation deliberately to get rid of Prince Ashby and Prince Roscoe’s entanglements and to act secretly, right?”

“Lord Night is wise!” Sean nodded, “Right now, Padishah is secluded and not coming out, while Prince Ashby and Prince Roscoe are in a fierce competition. The situation in the capital is unstable. As soon as I arrived there, they targeted me and forced me to choose sides…”

“But!”

“Whether it’s Prince Ashby or Prince Roscoe, neither are kind-hearted. They’re ruthless manipulators!”

“I don’t want to choose either!”

“So!”

“I had no choice but to resort to this tactic, avoiding their gaze and letting them battle it out while I pursue my own agenda. I don’t need their help, and I don’t want to be hindered by them!”

Ever since he first arrived in the capital, Sean had been watched by Prince Ashby’s people, Prince Roscoe’s people, the Mason family, and the Porter family…

In secret!

Who knows how many other people were observing his every move?

There were too many people watching him!

It was inconvenient to act!

He had no choice!

Sean could only use the opportunity of his battle with Fergus Archer to escape their surveillance. As for Prince Ashby and Prince Roscoe, he didn’t care who won or lost, who gained or lost.

It had nothing to do with him!

“The Mason family?”

“Or the Porter family?”

King of Night was obviously one of the many people keeping tabs on Sean, and he knew Sean’s whereabouts and goals. He asked directly, “Five years ago, both the Mason family and the Porter family were involved in that incident. Who do you want to take revenge on first?”

“Is there a difference?” Sean’s face was cold, his voice colder still, he scoffed, “It doesn’t matter who goes first. What’s important is that they pay with their lives for their crimes. Blood for blood!”

“None of them will escape!”

From grandfather Williams Mason to father Parker Mason, mother Nicola Wright, and even uncle Miao Wenyan’s family of three in Hilshire, the blood debts were insurmountable.

“Suit yourself.” King of Night could clearly sense the intense hatred and murderous intent emanating from Sean. He had no intention of stopping Sean’s quest for revenge. Sighing, he said, “However, besides giving you the Dragon Cauldron, Padishah has another task for me.”

“Oh?”

Sean’s heart stirred, gesturing, “Please speak, Lord Night.”

“Only seven days remain!” King of Night said solemnly, “In seven days, it will be the wedding day of Fergus Archer and Julia.”

“On the day of the wedding, you need to strike, killing Fergus Archer!”

“So…”

“Within these seven days, you must refine the gallbladder of the Black-scaled Python, break through your limits successfully, and ensure nothing goes wrong!”

Kill Fergus Archer???

Sean furrowed his eyebrows, no wonder Padishah lent him the Dragon Cauldron, he wanted to use Sean to eliminate the great threat of Fergus Archer!

However!

Sean couldn’t understand why, with Fergus Archer currently in the capital and having only three Tiger Generals by his side, wouldn’t it be easy for Padishah’s Bright Realm power to kill him?

Was it worth training Sean to become a Bright Realm cultivator to kill Fergus Archer?

A great figure like Padishah wouldn’t be so careless, right?

King of Night saw the doubt in Sean’s heart and explained, “The matter of Fergus Archer is not only related to the stability of South Forest but also involves Prince Ashby. It’s not appropriate for Padishah to take action personally!”

“Moreover!”

“Now is a critical time for Padishah’s seclusion. He can’t be disturbed by these trivial matters outside!”Original from NôvelDrama.Org.

So that’s how it is!

King of Night’s explanation seemed to make sense, but Sean still felt that things might not be as simple as they appeared on the surface!

When were royal affairs ever simple?

However!

Sean was not a member of the royal family, and even though he knew King of Night was hiding something, he wouldn’t naively continue to inquire. Knowing too much about certain things could lead to trouble!

“Alright!”

Sean nodded solemnly, “It’s my duty to eliminate traitors for the country and evildoers for the people. I can’t refuse!”

Killing Fergus Archer would be good!

At least, the unfortunate Princess Julia wouldn’t have to marry far away to South Forest!

Ten minutes later…

“Boss!”

Spirit Wolf crawled out of the Black-scaled Python’s massive mouth, covered in its blood and python fluid, stinking to high heaven!

However!

Spirit Wolf had a smile on his face, extremely excited!

“It’s no wonder that Fergus Archer spent years carefully raising this smelly bug. Its organs are all treasures! Fortunately, Lord Night arrived in time and we didn’t throw it off the cliff like trash!”

Saying that!

Spirit Wolf held up a basketball-sized lump of flesh and gestured with a smile, “Boss, look, this is the python’s gallbladder!”

“And this…”

“This is the python’s liver!”

“This is the python’s spleen!”

“Python’s lungs!”

“Python’s kidneys!”

“And the python’s stomach…”

“…”

Only a professional like Spirit Wolf could handle dissecting a corpse like this!

Damn!

In less than two minutes, Spirit Wolf removed the python’s liver, gallbladder, spleen, lungs, and kidneys in one go, looking excited as if he found treasure!

He couldn’t let go!

In the end!

He even pulled the python’s intestines out of its mouth, saying, “It’s a rare opportunity that Padishah has lent us the Dragon Cauldron. We can’t let it go to waste!”

“I’ve checked, the gallbladder has the greatest effect and is the most beneficial. It will be for the boss to enjoy!”

“Boss gets the meat, and Pupil Wolf and I will have the soup!”

“If we refine the rest of these organs, it should help Pupil Wolf and me reach the middle stage of dark energy…”

Pupil Wolf stood to the side, sweeping a glance, her face full of disgust!

Gross!

But for the sake of improving his own strength, she wouldn’t miss an opportunity like this. After all, with Sean’s rapid progress, Pupil Wolf would have to speed up, or she might lose the privilege to follow Sean!

It was pitiful that the massive Black-scaled Python, once the king of the jungle, not only died but also had its organs and insides refined by Sean and the others!

In the blink of an eye, its body was hollowed out…

It was a tragic fate!

Sean turned to King of Night and asked, “Would Night like to join?”

“With Lord Night’s dark energy at its peak, this opportunity, if seized, could help touch the threshold of the Bright Realm and move one step closer to the legendary realm!”

Bright Realm! It was the legendary realm, known as the realm of emperors! For cultivators on the path of cultivation, it held an irresistible temptation.

“There’s no need!” To Sean’s surprise, the King of Night didn’t even think about it before shaking his head without hesitation. “That may be the realm of emperors, but it’s also the realm of overstepping one’s bounds! There’s a difference between ruler and subject.”

“Since I am a subject, I should abide by the duties of a subject and not covet that realm. You all take your time to cultivate; I’ll keep watch for you, guarding against Fergus Archer’s people coming to investigate…” Having said that, he turned around and walked away, heading to the mouth of the cave.

Damn! Watching the King of Night’s retreating figure, Sean felt embarrassed, thinking, ‘Coveting the Bright Realm is overstepping one’s bounds for the Padishah and the imperial authority, but am I not doing the same? You’re saying that I’m not abiding by the duties of a subject!’ This left Sean increasingly puzzled.

Had the Padishah truly become so magnanimous that he could watch someone else advance into the Bright Realm without batting an eye? Was it a trap?

As Sean and the others began to cultivate the innards of the Black-Scaled Python in the cliffside cave, elsewhere, Fergus Archer, along with two of his Tiger Generals, rode atop three black marsh rhinotigers, returning to the capital, heading straight for Prince Ashby’s residence.
