Chapter 272: Sean Breaks Through, The Mystery of His Origin



After hanging up the phone, King of Night glanced at Sean, his pupils slightly constricting. He thought to himself, “This kid is indeed an extraordinary genius!”

“Four days!”

“He has completely refined the python’s gallbladder!”

“Breaking through…”

“Should be close!”

During the past few days, King of Night had stayed inside the cave without leaving, both to guard the Dragon Cauldron and to witness Sean’s breakthrough.

So, he had observed the entire process of Sean refining the python’s gallbladder. Originally, King of Night had given Sean seven days to complete the refinement and successfully break through before Fergus Archer and Julia’s wedding.

As much as possible, King of Night, a peak dark energy master, knew that if he were to refine the gallbladder himself, seven days would not be enough. He would need about half a month. Considering Sean’s unique bloodline and powerful talent, he felt that his expectations for Sean were already very high, and the difficulty of success was significant.

However, who could have expected that Sean, a freak of nature, would completely refine the python’s gallbladder on the fourth day and attempt to break through the chasm between dark energy and the Bright Realm, making a final sprint toward the legendary imperial realm?

Had he not seen it with his own eyes, he would have found it hard to believe. At such a close distance, King of Night could clearly sense Sean’s aura rising steadily, reaching a level that even he couldn’t help but feel afraid.

It was terrifying! This kind of absolute suppression from the gap between realms and the energies of brightness and darkness, King of Night had only felt it before when facing the current Padishah.

Under King of Night’s gaze, the corner of Sean’s mouth suddenly twitched, and his eyelids jumped. It seemed as if he wanted to open his eyes, but in the end, he gritted his teeth and held back.

Mother and daughter! Sean had heard King of Night’s words and had a vague suspicion that the mother and daughter he referred to might be Cecelia and Phyllis. After all, he was hiding in the cave to break through, unable to contact the outside world. Prince Ashby, Prince Roscoe, or even the Mason family and the Porter family might harm Cecelia and Phyllis if they couldn’t find him.

With this thought in mind, Sean’s breathing became momentarily erratic. However, he quickly cast aside the distracting thoughts, regrouped his focus, and stabilized the intertwined dark energy and bright energy within his body. He carefully continued the transformation between dark and bright energy, introducing the refined bright energy into his body bit by bit.

At the same time, he continued to polish his core, making it a container capable of holding a sufficient amount of bright energy. This was an incredibly complex, painful, and dangerous process! The slightest mistake could damage the core, turning a peak dark energy master into a complete cripple or even causing death on the spot.

Success or perish!

Julia had woken up early and had been silently observing Sean. When she noticed something unusual about Sean, her heart trembled, and she quietly asked, “Lord Night, Mr. Mason… is he…?”

“He’ll be fine.”

“Are you sure?”

Julia’s emotions were complicated at the moment. She didn’t want anything to happen to Sean and didn’t want to marry Fergus Archer either. However, she knew very well that once Sean successfully broke through his limits and left, he would not only go after Fergus Archer but also her father. How would she cope then?

“Probably not,” King of Night shook his head. There were always risks during a breakthrough, so he couldn’t be too certain. Glancing at Julia, he said, “Princess, if you wish, I can have someone send you back to your residence…”

“I don’t want to go back!” Julia decisively shook her head, refusing without hesitation. “I don’t want to go back!”

If she went back, she would have to face her father. After all, it was Prince Adam who had deliberately encouraged her to go to the Jade Restaurant, informing Sean, and pushing her into the fire pit, attracting Fergus Archer and harming Sean. Moreover, after the battle at Hill Riverside, Prince Roscoe’s faction was defeated. If she returned now, would her father and Prince Roscoe continue to force her to marry Fergus Archer? Probably… right?

After hesitating for a while, Julia couldn’t help but ask, “Lord Night, do you know what the situation is like outside now?”

“I know some of it.”

Regardless, Julia was still a royal descendant, so King of Night was relatively polite to her. He honestly said, “Prince Ashby has closed off his residence and is not coming out. Prince Roscoe entered the Imperial Palace but failed to see the Padishah. As for Fergus Archer… he is still preparing for your wedding, and I’m afraid he won’t give up easily. Your engagement with him was personally granted by Padishah, and it cannot be changed. If you can’t return to your residence in time, when the wedding day arrives and your father can’t present the bride, it will be considered a crime of deceiving the emperor. The consequences are unimaginable!”

Although King of Night had not left the cave, he knew the situation outside like the back of his hand. Hearing this, Julia’s face changed slightly, and her heart trembled violently again.

“Oh.”

“I understand.”

“Thank you.”

Lowering her head, Julia turned and walked away, her eyes filled with unshed tears. Her desolate figure was heartbreaking. A crime of deceiving the emperor? If she went back, she would face the dilemma of marrying Fergus Archer. If she didn’t, her father, mother, and everyone in Prince Adam’s residence would have to bear the unbearable guilt.

The only hope was for Sean to break through and kill Fergus Archer, ending their troubles once and for all. However, in that case, Sean would become the second Fergus Archer, also holding her father responsible. Oh God, what a cruel joke!

The cave fell silent again, the atmosphere strangely oppressive. Time passed, minute by minute, until around half-past one in the afternoon.

Boom!

Without warning, a deafening noise suddenly echoed throughout the cave. In an instant, centered around where Sean was sitting, a fierce wind arose, and debris flew everywhere. It was as if a bomb had exploded, and the entire cave trembled.

“Boss!” Pupil Wolf and Spirit Wolf were immediately awakened. They opened their eyes wide, put down the Dragon Cauldron, stopped refining, and rushed towards Sean.

“Did he succeed?” Standing at the cave entrance, King of Night’s face also changed, his pupils constricting, and his gaze like sharp arrows shot towards Sean.

Moments later, the fierce wind stopped, and the dust settled. Sean’s burly figure reappeared before everyone’s eyes. At that moment, Sean opened his icy, knife-like eyes, ignoring Pupil Wolf and Spirit Wolf. Instead, he looked directly at King of Night and asked in a deep voice, “Lord Night, who is responsible?”

He didn’t ask about the process, only who was responsible. Since King of Night had chosen to answer the phone in front of Sean, he naturally had no intention of hiding anything from him. He honestly said, “The head of the Campbell family in the capital, Chuck Campbell. He is a supporter of Prince Ashby and was ordered by Prince Ashby. This morning, he went to Hilshire with four Complete Stage cultivators from several other families to find your wife and daughter…”Contentt bel0ngs to N0ve/lDrâ/ma.O(r)g!

Boom!

Sean was furious, and the fierce wind rose again.

King of Night explained, “According to the information I have, it seems that Old Mrs. Mason betrayed you to appease Fergus Archer, revealing your true identity to both him and Prince Ashby!”

“You killed the Black-scaled Python, blocking Fergus Archer’s path to promotion. Your powerful bloodline, comparable to a high-level spirit beast, would suffice to replace the Black-scaled Python and help Fergus Archer break through if refined by the Dragon Cauldron!”

“They couldn’t find you!”

“So…”

“They targeted your daughter instead!”

As a confidant of Padishah, King of Night was not only powerful and mysterious, but also possessed a vast intelligence network. He was aware of all the big and small events happening in the capital.

After all!

Padishah had long resided in the Imperial Palace and rarely ventured out!

So!

Padishah needed a pair of eyes that could see through everything, watching over the capital for him!

Even!

Watching over the entire world!

King of Night played such a role, like a fierce ghost in the dark night, monitoring the world like the King of Hell!

Even Prince Ashby!

Even Prince Roscoe!

Their every move was under King of Night’s control and surveillance!

“Old Mrs. Mason!”

“That old woman deserves to die!”

Having just broken through, Sean was still unstable and didn’t stand up immediately. Gritting his teeth, he coldly asked, “My identity is known to all! What’s there to betray?”

Until now, Sean didn’t know that his biological mother was not Nicola Wright, but someone else!

“This…”

King of Night hesitated for a moment!

Then!

He sighed and said, “According to Old Mrs. Mason, your biological father is undoubtedly Parker Mason, but your biological mother is not Nicola Wright!”

“That’s also why your bloodline is so powerful, and your talent is extraordinary!”

In a single sentence!

Everyone was astonished!

Especially Sean!

Like a thunderbolt exploding in his mind, Sean was completely dumbfounded, his body trembling violently, and his face filled with disbelief!

How could this be???

Knowing Sean couldn’t accept this all at once, King of Night added, “You should be type O blood, right?”

“Parker Mason is type A!”

“Nicola Wright is type AB!”

“You know!”

“Parents with these two blood types can’t possibly have a child with type O blood! Especially Nicola Wright’s AB type, it’s just not possible no matter how you combine them!”

Blood type!

A very scientific method of judgment, beyond dispute!

It took quite a while…

For Sean to recover from his shock, asking, “Then who is my biological mother?”

“I don’t know.”

King of Night shook his head, saying, “After learning this news, I sent people to investigate. However, this matter has been hidden by the Mason family for decades. You are now 26 years old, and searching for the truth now is like searching for a needle in a haystack.”

“Even Old Mrs. Mason only knew part of it and not everything.”

“The people who know your biological mother’s identity should only be your grandfather Williams Mason, your father Parker Mason, and your nominal mother Nicola Wright. Now that Williams Mason and Nicola Wright have passed away, and Parker Mason has disappeared…”

The rest of his words went unsaid, yet their meaning was clear!

Those in the know were already few and far between!

With some dead and others missing, how could they search???

“Do you really not know, Lord Night?”

Sean was somewhat skeptical!

King of Night countered, “What would I gain from lying to you?”

Indeed!

If King of Night knew, it seemed there was no reason for him to deceive Sean!

“I will investigate it myself!”

Sean took a deep breath, not dwelling on this issue, and instead asked, “What’s the situation in Hilshire now?”

“Chuck Campbell and Cecelia agreed to leave Hilshire at two in the afternoon to come to the capital!”

King of Night checked the time and said, “There are still twenty minutes until two o’clock. If you want to stop your wife, there’s still time!”

With that!

King of Night took out a satellite phone and handed it to Sean!

“No need!”

After some thought, Sean shook his head and coldly said, “If I’m not mistaken, Cecelia should be under their surveillance. Making a rash call to her would only put her in danger!”

“The people I left in Hilshire should not be match for the four Complete Stage cultivators!”

Saying this!

Sean turned to King of Night and asked, “How about you?”

“How many people do you have in Hilshire?”

Unless Chuck Campbell and the others could be wiped out, Sean would never risk the lives and safety of Cecelia and the others!
