Chapter 1624: Chapter 589: Hide and Seek

Velda Yvette and the entire Arman Clan had it rough, and so did the King of Godfery Kingdom. If he could, the King of Godfery Kingdom would not hesitate to abandon the Arman Clan. However, he didn’t dare to do so yet, as it had only been a few months since "Chilton Dante" had disappeared. For powerful Cultivation practitioners, it was common for them to be in closed-door Cultivation for years or even decades. It would also take months to decipher the prohibitions in an ancient ruin while traveling.

If he handed Velda Yvette and her family over to the Hayden Kingdom, Chilton Dante might not be able to do anything to Hayden Kingdom upon his return, but he would definitely be able to kill him, the ruler of a small country.

However, in a world like Central State, weak countries often lack the right to choose. An inner attendant secretly delivered a piece of confidential information: "Your Majesty, it is confirmed that Black Michael, the Protector of the Hayden Kingdom, stayed at Mason Beacher’s Pi Xia Garden on the outskirts of the city two days ago."

The King’s lips trembled, furious and agitated: "They are pressing me at every step! Hayden Kingdom wants to ruin me -"

Mason Beacher was a powerful courtier in the kingdom. He was a close friend of the Hayden Kingdom and served as the Minister of Education and Protector of the Country. As a small country, Godfery Kingdom had factions that supported the King, factions that were close to Hayden Kingdom, and factions that were close to Reed Mountain Country. After Chilton Dante settled in Godfery Kingdom, the King’s faction rose in power. However, once Chilton Dante disappeared without a trace, the pro-Hayden faction launched a counterattack.

The King had been protecting Velda Yvette all this time, not because he truly favored Chilton Dante, but because he wanted to rely on Chilton Dante’s protection to maintain the authority of the Imperial Family as much as possible.

But now that Black Michael had come in person, and Mason Beacher, that traitor, dared to receive him in his manor outside the country, it was utterly intolerable! However, the King was powerless in this situation.

The layout of the Imperial Palace might be able to withstand the attack of a Protector once or twice, but it could never truly resist a Protector. If Black Michael were to continuously launch attacks, he would definitely be able to kill the King.

The King sighed deeply, sending a secret order: "Pass this message to Velda Yvette quietly. Please ask her to understand the real difficulties and flee for her life."

"Your command will be obeyed."

...

The entire Arman Clan was extremely discontented. They had followed their brother-in-law to Godfery Kingdom, originally thinking they would be the Grand Emperor. However, his sudden disappearance ruined their plans. In just a few months, they were about to be kicked out, and they might even lose their lives here!

Velda Yvette’s brothers complained about their sister: You should havegiven him a son to bind him down! Men just can’t be tied down without a child!

Velda Yvette was under tremendous pressure, as she was the only one in the Arman Clan who truly understood the severity of the situation. At this moment, there was no one to share her worries. She used to think that her family was her strongest support and that they would always help her. However, this time she suddenly realized that her family had been merely taking advantage of her from Reed Mountain Country to Godfery Kingdom. They never provided her with any real assistance, and even the ideas they suggested were short-sighted and unhelpful.

Now under such difficult circumstances, she couldn’t even find someone to discuss her options. Asking her brothers would only result in complaints about her husband’s disappearance. Yet, when she asked them to leave Godfery Kingdom with her, they couldn’t bear to part with their wealth, harboring a glimmer of hope: What if Chilton Dante returned?

It was at this time that she realized that her true support was her husband. No matter how indifferent their relationship had become over the years, her husband could always give her the confidence she needed.

For the past half a month, Velda Yvette would often shed tears alone in the moonlight, reminiscing about the past... It’s all right, she thought. If you want to take concubines, have side chambers, I’ll agree. Even if you want your main wife and side chambers to be messy together, I’ll agree, but you just need to come back quickly...

It was only when the King sent someone to deliver the secret report that Velda Yvette finally gave up hope. She knew very well that Black Michael would not spare her. At this point, the wisest choice would be to travel alone using her Seventh Level power, which would definitely allow her to escape Godfery Kingdom. However, she ultimately couldn’t let go of her brothers. Gritting her teeth, she ordered: "Notify my uncles to gather at the mansion immediately. I have important matters to discuss."

When they arrived, she would grab them and forcibly take them away. If she told them outright that they needed to flee for their lives, these miserly men would probably waste half a day just packing up.

...

Black Michael dared to come alone because he had heard some rumors from Reed Mountain Country, leading him to judge that Chilton Dante might not be coming back.

Although the impersonation of Chilton Dante had not been discovered, there were still some unusual aspects. After a few months, there were indeed speculations in Reed Mountain Country.

Today, Mason Beacher played chess with Black Michael. He was extremely skilled at the game, but he was still defeated and forced to abandon it. It was not that he deliberately lost to please his master but rather that Black Michael cheated. Black Michael followed the "Dark Martial Path," and while he played, five Great Ghosts appeared out of thin air behind him. These fellows were all top Grandmasters in their lives, highly skilled at chess. Naturally, five against one Mason Beacher, they captured him with ease.

Just as Mason Beacher was about to surrender, a concealed practitioner suddenly entered and materialized in the shadows, kneeling down to report on Velda Yvette’s situation.

Black Michael laughed heartily: "Trying to escape? Dreaming during the day! How could I let go of a Tire-7 Great Demon that’s within reach?" Since arriving in Godfery Kingdom, Black Michael had planned to kill Velda Yvette and refine her into a ghost servant. Though she had barely reached the Seventh Realm with her husband’s support, she was an excellent material for the Dark Martial Path.

When Mason Beacher heard these words and looked up again, Black Michael had already disappeared and naturally went straight to the capital to kill Velda Yvette.
