Chapter 653 - 653 653 Shock from All Sides

653: Chapter 653: Shock from All Sides 653: Chapter 653: Shock from All Sides The undead creature saluted Zhao Guang and then silently covered the statue again before walking outside.

Zhao Guang didn’t care much about such actions; after all, the creature was just an Undead Being.

While it didn’t matter much to Zhao Guang, the situation was different elsewhere.

Ralfa opened his eyes, the conversation had just ended.

Ralfa, too, breathed a sigh of relief at Zhao Guang’s decision.

He had never imagined that this guy could be so strong.

Kapus was no weakling, slightly inferior to himself, but he, too, could only defeat, not easily kill Kapus.

Not to mention, this time it was a complete kill without even the Life Box escaping.

If Zhao Guang could easily defeat him, then he could easily defeat Ralfa as well.

He had never really seen Zhao Guang as a threat, but now it seemed he had been too lucky.

Ralfa also knew if it weren’t for the Legendary Mage supporting him, the other party probably wouldn’t let him stay so comfortably to his north.

How exactly did such a person cultivate?

“Go, tell the others, Lord Xuanwu does not plan to wage a large-scale war against us,”

Ralfa continued, “Also, those who fled, we won’t shelter them.

Let them head south on their own.”

There was no sound outside, but Ralfa knew his orders had already been conveyed.

“I hope those fellows won’t cause trouble.

But even if they do, that’s their own doing, and perhaps we can trade some stuff with them.

That one to the south is not known for his good temper.”

Ralfa immediately began to calculate what benefits he could gain from this situation.

At the same time, inside Fla Fortress, Count Valen had also convened all his subordinates for a meeting.

In fact, when Zhao Guang first arrived, they didn’t pay much attention.

To them, Zhao Guang was just a rising star, a merchant who had become a noble through luck.

With a lot of special items, he could bring benefits, but he wasn’t seen as a threat.

But who knew, in such a short time, he could turn such a vast land into his territory and develop it so quickly?

His personal power had even reached the level of Great Mage.

Not long ago, his noble rank had been elevated to Marquis, thoroughly surpassing Valen himself.

In the whole Empire, Marquis was a very rare presence.

On the frontier, they were the highest-ranking nobles.

Now even Valen had to salute him first when they met.

Originally, Valen didn’t think he had much strength, assuming it was just a title set up by the Royal Family.

But a recent battle changed everything.

It’s important to note, this battle took place just north of Fla Fortress, very close, nearly affecting them.

Because it was so close at hand, everything was very clear and even recorded.

“You all saw it, right?” Everyone’s expressions were solemn as they nodded.

Such terrifying fluctuations; even feeling them from a not-so-distant place, one would worry about being annihilated.

That’s the power of a Great Mage, a ready Great Mage, too terrifying to comprehend.

But on their side, there wasn’t even one person who could match that power.

Without a Great Knight level fighter, they felt utterly powerless.

If such terrifying magic was deployed, their entire fortress might be reduced to ruins.

Did he not realize how formidable his neighbor had always been?

“The latest intelligence from the front lines has arrived, the Undead Mages failed, Kapus died on the spot, and even the Life Box was destroyed by Marquis Xuanwu.

From now on, our attitude towards Xuanwu Territory must change,”

Someone immediately said below, “Lord is right; going forward, we should try our best to follow their lead.”

“How about we send some gifts over as a mark of our sincerity?”

People below were talking, but Valen’s face darkened.

Did they all have to suck up so much?

It seemed like they valued the other party more than their own fathers.

Yet as Valen opened his mouth, he didn’t know how to refute because he felt powerless.

He had thought his own power was strong and his troops formidable, but thinking of the previous magic, he couldn’t muster any resistance.

Against such a person, it was better to just obediently follow orders.

“How about we try probing first; there’s no need to get too close from the start,”

“Yes, after all, Xuanwu Territory has always been consistent in their attitude towards us, never overbearing.”

Valen nodded; that was right, at the very least, he couldn’t let others look down on him.

Even if he eventually had to suck up, he had to make it look like he was compelled by the situation, as a last resort.

“Alright, we’ll continue discussing this later, and we need to send the records on the Crystal Stone out.”

Someone immediately said, “The Royal Family must have one, probably the two dukes as well, and then there are others.

How exactly should we choose?”

Someone else said, “The competition at the Royal Family is extremely fierce right now.

We just need to send one to the Royal Family.”

Not picking sides?

No, who didn’t know that the Princess was currently overseeing the Royal Family matters.

Sending one to the Royal Family essentially meant aligning with the Princess, it was just plausible.

“Let’s just send one to everyone, make it public, and show that we are being fair,”

Faced with the imminent chaos of the discussion, Valen simply spoke up and decided.

Next would be a series of adjustments and interactions with Xuanwu Territory.

Meanwhile, the news spread at the fastest speed to the Beastman Region.

When the Beastman Royal Court received it, they were also taken aback, never expecting Zhao Guang’s strength to have improved so much.

Previously, they only valued his ability to procure various beneficial items for their overall enhancement.

Speaking of which, if it weren’t for the effects Zhao Guang’s procured items had on the Bimong Giant Beast, they wouldn’t have given him the time of day, given the huge gap in their status.

But in just over a year, this human had not only built such a vast enterprise but also reached such a level of personal power.

From this performance, he was qualified to sit on an equal footing with them.

Not to mention, according to the intelligence sent by Aleya, his Combat Energy might have also reached the level of Great Knight.

“I suggest we elevate our regard for Zhao Guang.” Finally, someone spoke up first.

Everyone exchanged looks, and surprisingly, not a single person objected.
