Chapter 306: Palace of Wolf, A Stranger’s Reminder
“Rest assured!”
“I am bound for the south, to fulfill my mission, and to claim the life of that dog Sean, shattering his body into thousands of pieces and reducing him to ashes to boost the emperor’s might!!!”
Ashby’s voice was resolute with soaring fighting spirit!
Deep down!
He was already fantasizing about the wonderful scene of executing Sean!!!
What was more important!
The tiger generals under Fergus Archer had long been in contact with Ashby. After executing Sean, Ashby could seize the opportunity to control the South Forest, becoming the king there, and no longer returning to the capital!
By then!
With the emperor far away and the advantageous terrain of the hundreds of thousands of mountains, even if King Ron wanted to kill him, he would be helpless!
This was simply a golden opportunity!
A win-win situation!
The more he thought about it!
The more excited Ashby was, he slightly raised the corner of his mouth, revealing an extremely cold smile!
“And!”
Although King Ron couldn’t see Ashby’s expression, he seemed to have guessed Ashby’s plan, and continued, “Executing Sean will be your redemption for past crimes, all of which will be written off!”
“I will let bygones be bygones!”
“But!”
“Though the capital is large, it can no longer contain you, the crown prince. It would be better for you to stay in the South Forest in the future, to guard a region for me, replacing Fergus Archer’s position in the South Forest!”
“As for your wife, children, and family…”
“Once you successfully control the South Forest, I will send someone to bring them to you, allowing your family to reunite and live in peace forever!”
Upon hearing this!
Ashby’s cold smile froze on his face, and his heart trembled violently!
Father!
So!
You have long seen through my little plans, knowing that I want to stay in the South Forest and become a king there. You even went to great lengths to pave the way for me!
At this moment!
A warm current swept across Ashby’s heart, as if he felt the long-lost, somewhat strange, thing called “fatherly love”!
“Thank you, father!”
Bang!
Bang!
Bang!
Moved, Ashby knocked his head on the floor!
“Go!”
“Go!”
“Go prepare!”
King Ron sighed and said, “As father and son, this is all I can do for you!”
“From now on, you will always guard the South Forest!”
“This!”
“Should be the last time we meet in this life as father and son!”
“Sigh…”
Outside the great hall, Ashby knocked his head for a full ten minutes, thanking his father, thanking the emperor, before standing up, choking out, “Father, take care!”
“I take my leave!!!”
Having said that!
He resolutely turned and left!!!
Underground altar!
King Ron was still sitting cross-legged on the jade pillar in the center of the altar, shaking his head as if talking to himself, “Among my nine princes, Ashby’s temperament, cunning, and ruthless methods…”
“Most resemble me when I was young!”
“What a pity!”
“What a pity!”
“There is only one supreme position in Kisia, and only one Padishah can be there. The bigger his ambition, the quicker his death!”
“We, father and son!”
“Are destined not to coexist!!!”
One mountain!
Cannot accommodate two tigers!
King Ron is the current Padishah, but Ashby is eager to replace him. The throne only has place for one, even if they are father and son, they cannot share it!
Either you die!
Or I perish!
There’s no way around!
The royal family stands at the pinnacle of power, with no room for family squabbles, only life and death!
“Winners rule, losers suffer!”
“It has always been this way!”
Standing in the dark corner, the King of Night nodded and said solemnly, “The journey to the South Forest, with many forces converging, slight carelessness could lead to chaos!”
“So!”
“I must go there personally to control the development of the situation in secret. In this battle, we can only win, not lose!!!”
King Ron agreed completely!
“You have my thanks then!”
King Ron laughed, “With you there, we can ensure no mishaps!”
Towards the King of Night, King Ron showed exceptional respect…
…
At that time!
After Sean left the imperial city, he headed straight for the newly built Palace of Wolf, ten miles west of the city!
King Ron said!
When Sean entered the imperial city, he had already sent someone to bring Cecilia and others there. Obviously, every move of Sean, including where he stayed, was under his surveillance!
By the time Sean arrived, the front of the Palace of Wolf was already crowded with people!
It was a sea of people!
Since Sean came to the capital, the noise he had made was too big, having extinguished several large families in the capital and executed the renowned Beast King of the South Forest this morning!
At this point!
The name of Sean, the name of the Wolf King, was known to everyone in the capital!
Most importantly!
Not long after Sean was summoned into the imperial city by King Ron, the huge plaque of the Palace of Wolf officially went up, and Cecilia and others officially moved in. The implication behind this move was clear to any fool!
Sean was about to skyrocket, to rise abruptly based on his accumulated wealth!
So!
The local citizens and people from all the major families in the capital came to join in the excitement and offer their congratulations, resulting in the current overcrowded scene!!!
Fortunately!
Spirit Wolf and others were guarding outside the gate, blocking all the people outside the main gate!
With Sean being favored this time and being granted the Palace of Wolf, they, as the first batch of people who pledged allegiance to Sean, naturally ascended to heaven with a single bound as the water rises!
They were all head of families and were already familiar with those from the major families in the capital, so they were specifically responsible for receiving guests!
Each and every one of them had a beaming smile on their face!
However!
Sean stood outside the crowd, looked up at the huge plaque of the “Palace of Wolf” through the sea of people, and was filled with mixed feelings!
“Huh?”
“Do you guys see that? Doesn’t that person look like…”
“The Wolf King???”
Suddenly!
Someone in the crowd noticed Sean, and someone shouted in surprise, immediately attracting many people’s attention. The next moment, a wave of people turned their heads, their eyes full of expectation, like a tide, casting toward Sean!
What the hell!
Sean frowned!
Whoosh!
Without any hesitation, he instantly turned into an afterimage and disappeared from the spot!
He jumped over the wall and entered!
Ironically enough, his new home, his first visit, was in such a way, like a thief!
Roar!
What’s more tragic!
As soon as Sean’s feet touched the ground, and he jumped over the wall into the courtyard, there was suddenly a loud tiger roar. The Black Zeal Tiger was lying under the corner of the wall, and Sean’s sudden appearance startled it, causing it to react aggressively!
“Shut up!”
Sean kicked the huge head of the Black Zeal Tiger, kicking it two meters away!
The Black Zeal Tiger shook its head, only feeling stars in front of its eyes. Seeing that it was Sean, it immediately lay down obediently, lowered its head, and looked aggrieved!
As if to say: Master, it’s you!
I didn’t do it on purpose…
“Daddy!”Nôvel(D)ra/ma.Org exclusive © material.
“Mommy, look quickly, daddy’s back!”
The ferocious roar caught the attention of many, including Phyllis, who was practicing boxing in front of a loft!
Speaking of which!
The little girl immediately ran over to Sean!
“You!”
“Don’t lie there like a dead dog!”
“Go!”
“Go to the mansion gate and drive all the people outside away for me!”
Tomorrow they were to set off to quell the disturbances in South Forest. King Ron spoke lightly about the matter, suggesting they were just going to pick up an easy military merit, but Sean always felt that things would definitely not be as simple as he said!
With only an afternoon and a night’s time, Sean naturally wanted to spend time with his wife and child. As for those major families from the capital who came to offer congratulations, he couldn’t be bothered!
Roar!
The tiger roared again, aggrieved after being kicked by Sean for no reason, and now had a vent for his frustration.
Those poor humans outside the gate! Be prepared to tremble before my tiger might!
Wet yourselves!!!
“Daddy!”
Phyllis ran over and just as she threw herself into Sean’s arms, a terrifying roar of a tiger echoed from outside the gate, followed by the sounds of people’s screams!
Chaos ensued!
Sean, holding Phyllis, strode over to Cecilia and the others, asking while walking, “What was Phyllis doing just now?”
“Practicing boxing!”
Phyllis lifted her small chin, saying proudly, “The Wolf Uncles all say that I have inherited daddy’s powerful bloodline and am a one in a million martial arts prodigy!”
“But mommy says!”
“The more talent you have, the harder you should work!”
“So!”
“I will definitely work hard! Harder! And even harder! When daddy goes out to fight the bad guys and is not at home, I can protect mommy…”
This little girl always understood so much!
Sean gently scratched the tip of her nose and laughed, “Daddy has time this afternoon, shall we practice boxing together?”
“Yes, yes!”
Phyllis’ eyes sparkled, she gave Sean a peck on the cheek, laughing, “With mommy and daddy both here, I will definitely improve faster!”
The two of them reached Cecilia.
Phyllis clung onto Sean, refusing to get down. Cecilia gave her a glare and let her be. When she looked at Sean, her beautiful face was filled with worry and confusion, asking, “Honey, are you alright?”
“This…”
“What on earth happened?”
Suddenly brought to the Palace of Wolf and becoming the master of the place, Cecilia’s heart was still in turmoil, not knowing whether this was a blessing or a curse!
“I’m fine!”
Sean disregarded the presence of others, leaned over and kissed Cecilia on the forehead, laughing, “Don’t worry, let’s go inside and talk!”
“Okay!”
Cecilia’s face turned slightly red!
Inside the loft!
Sean took about ten minutes to explain the affairs of the Palace of Wolf and the South Forest disturbance, but he didn’t mention a word about King Ron wanting to adopt him as his son and preparing him to inherit the throne!
This matter!
It’s not reliable!
“Going to South Forest? This…”
Cecilia’s face changed, looking very upset, her relationship with Sean had been constantly bumpy, from the plot five years ago, to the reunion five years later, to knowing and loving each other, to their marriage certificate being torn, and now their trip to the capital!
It’s been one wave after another!
They just reunited a few days ago, do they have to part ways again???
When will it end???
“Ding!”
Sean naturally knew the pain in Cecilia’s heart, he was about to comfort Cecilia when his phone rang. He took out his phone and saw it was a text message from a stranger!
Frowning slightly!
Sean opened the message and his pupils contracted suddenly. The text content was only three words:
It’s a trap!!
