The Wolf’s Bride

The Swallow family was in deep distress.

Norvin arrived at the memorial hall and said, “Everyone, leave. I want to talk to the forebearer.”

“Yes.”

After everyone left, Norvin and his most trusted aide replaced Duncan’s real body with one that resembled him, then moved the real corpse into the secret room.

Then, he dismissed the aide.

“I’m sorry, forebearer.” Norvin knelt in front of the corpse and bowed his head, then continued, “With my current strength, it’s hard enough to protect the Swallow family, let alone seek revenge.

“Thus, I have to use the method the Insect Ruler told me. Absorbing your inner energy will allow me to break through to the Martial Saint realm and the Divine Steps.

“Don’t worry. After I absorb your inner energy, I’ll definitely annihilate the Shrouded Gate and erase the humiliation of today!”

Then, Norvin took out a bottle and poured out a strange–looking insect into Duncan’s mouth.

Soon, Duncan’s body showed signs of swelling, and inner energy gathered continuously.

“Come…”

Norvin began to absorb this pure inner energy.

Meanwhile, hundreds of kilometers away, Luna led all the members of the Shrouded Gate and headed toward Flandom in the Obaro continent.

“Master…” Marcellus glanced at Sumeria below them and asked with concern, You brought all the elites to Obaro, but what if there’s trouble in Florence?”

Others might not know, but Marcellus did.

Luna only cared about two things.

First, her husband.

Second, her home.

She was going to Obaro for her husband, but Sumeria was left undefended.

“I killed Duncan openly as a warning to all the ancient martial forces in Florence not to oppose the Shrouded Gate. Otherwise, they will share Duncan’s fate!” Luna’s voice was filled with determination and coldness, making others shiver. This content provided by N(o)velDrama].[Org.

“But…” Marcellus was still worried. “The ancient martial world is complex. If they unite, killing Duncan might not be enough to deter them.”

His worries were not unfounded.

After all, the Shrouded Gate had killed many martial realm experts from various sects and factions. Furthermore, now that the Shrouded Gate was so powerful, it was highly likely that they would join forces against them.

“Hmph…”

A ripple of killing intent flashed in Luna’s beautiful eyes. “If they dare to unite against us and provoke us…

“The day we return from Obaro will be the day of their deaths! Any enemy who dares approach will be annihilated. None will be spared!”

At those words, a fierce chilling intent swept through the entire plane.

Marcellus, who was the closest, instantly had goosebumps and cold sweat form on his forehead.

At the same time, in the capital of Flandom, Andrius and his group were also preparing to depart.

“Wolf King!”

When the Black Hawk heard of the news, he immediately informed Andrius, “We just received news that the forebearer of the Swallows, Duncan Swallow, was killed by the Shrouded Gate’s master. For some reason, the Shrouded Gate’s master’s strength suddenly increased dramatically, and they slayed Duncan in just three moves.

“They also said that if the Swallow family dares to go against them again, they’ll completely annihilate the family.”

The news shocked Andrius.

Duncan Swallow… He was a late–stage Martial God who had been famous for many years!

It had only been a short while ago that the Shrouded Gate’s master was on even ground with him, but now, they were able to kill him in three moves…

Not even a Martial Saint would be able to do that, right?

How powerful was the master?

While Andrius was still digesting the information, the Black Hawk continued,“ Also, according to the news, the Shrouded Gate’s master will also be participating in the competition on Praxis Island!”
