Chapter 201: Chapter 199: Confiscating Henry Mansion_1

Owen Bertram didn’t expect that Abner Lane would be so powerful! This "powerful" not only refers to Abner’s own cultivation, but also his influence.

That night, the Horizon Bureau’s cultivation army invaded the city from multiple directions, with more than one Sixth Great Realm master among them! Combined with David and others, the battle had been in the Horizon Bureau’s favor from the beginning.

Over the years, the Horizon Bureau under Abner Lane had endured various humiliations in silence. However, tonight, they vented all their resentment! They all knew that the situation would be drastically different after this battle!

As dawn approached, three powerful auras soared into the sky from within the city, heading straight for a desolate mountain outside the city where they engaged in a peak battle amongst Sixth Great Realm experts!

The Horizon Bureau’s cultivation army immediately controlled the entire Darnell Manor City. David and the others stood on the city wall, looking forward to the outcome of the battle outside the city.

However, everyone’s expressions were very relaxed.

One elder officiant had to get drunk after the battle. He sat on a crenel of the city wall, with dozens of wine jars already discarded at his feet and two more in his hand: "What’s there to watch? Master won’t let us fight because he’s afraid we’ll ruin his fun."

"Those two Sixth Great Realm guys combined wouldn’t even be enough for Master to beat."

Everyone knew that before this operation, Master had been equally frustrated and almost desperate.

He had even planned to only bring David and the others on this mission, leaving the other officiants and cultivation soldiers behind in the capital.

As expected, roars shook the sky in that desolate mountain, with spiritual radiance shooting straight into the Nine Heavens. Occasionally, magic treasures from both sides charged out and back in, but everything subsided after a shichen (2 hours). Abner Lane returned refreshed and invigorated.

How exhilarating, to brutally smash two Sixth Great Realm masters and vent all the grievances he had received in the capital over the years!

The knights were overjoyed, leaping off the city wall and forming two lines: "Welcome Master’s triumphant return!"

Abner Lane waved his hand: "They’re just two useless fellows, not worth congratulating. Immediately, lead a team to search Prince Henry’s residence!"

"Yes!"

From the city gate, Owen Bertram squeezed out, laughing happily while looking at Abner Lane. The Commander of South Prison said to him, "You can follow, but if you take anything from Henry Mansion, you won’t get a share of the Dragon Abyss."

Owen Bertram pursed his lips, muttered stingy under his breath, but still had some expectations for the Prince’s mansion. What if he found something suitable for his brother? Let’s go take a look first.

As he turned to leave, Abner Lane grabbed him. After pondering for a moment, Abner Lane said, "If you are willing to give up your bet with David, I can allow you to take anything from Henry Mansion or the Dragon Abyss."

David clenched his teeth and stepped forward: "There’s no need for Master to do this! I accept the bet and lose, but I want to see... what he can do to me."

Defiant and resolute indeed.

Owen Bertram laughed loudly, not bothering to continue humiliating the knight who’d fought all night: "Master Lane, I would be willing, of course, but your loyal subordinates can’t bear to see you give away such a generous offer."

Abner Lane frowned slightly, then suddenly raised his hand and wiped his eyes. His pupils were filled with silver radiance as he looked toward Owen Bertram.

Owen Bertram’s face changed, and he quickly held his breath, trying to hide all the secrets within his body as much as possible.

Abner Lane stared at him for a while, then dispersed the silver light in his eyes. No one knew if he saw anything, but instead, he said, "It’s fine for David to follow you."

He no longer brought up the subject, striding into the city saying, "Bring Nathan Lane along as well. He contributed to this victory and deserves a share of the rewards."...

Nathan Lane stood in front of the magnificent Henry Mansion, feeling as if he was in a dream.

Originally, when Jamal asked him if he dared to investigate this case thoroughly, he agreed and firmly believed that with the support of River God, he would be safe.

However, deep down, he was still somewhat uneasy, after all, he was going to face Prince Henry himself!

To his surprise, in the time that had passed, Prince Henry was arrested, and he could even join Jamal and the Horizon Bureau in confiscating his Mansion!

Overwhelmed with emotion, Nathan Lane could only praise silently from the bottom of his heart: Jamal’s awesome and River God’s awesome!

David patted him on the shoulder: "Let’s go."

With a boom, the Military Officers of the Horizon Bureau lifted a log and smashed open the main gate of the Henry Mansion, then the Military Officers of the Horizon Bureau with their knives swarmed in.

Owen Bertram shook his head behind them: "What a bunch of wastrels. Such a fine wooden door wasted, if it was taken down and sold to make coffin planks, it would be worth at least hundreds of silver."

Owen Bertram wasn’t interested in ordinary things, so when these Military Officers were plundering wildly inside the Henry Mansion, he was just pulling Nathan Lane along at the end: "Do not rush, these are just worldly riches."

Nathan Lane didn’t dare to break free, secretly feeling a sense of depression: Jamal, you are a Divine Envoy, these treasures are, of course, worthless to you, but I need them; after all, I have to get married.

As it turned out, these Horizon Bureau fellows were experts in confiscating households. For the first Shichen (2 hours), neither Abner Lane nor David interfered, letting them search through Henry Mansion and stuff the things they found in their waist pockets.

When the time was up, David shouted, and although everyone was regretful, they immediately changed their style and began to search seriously. The treasures found from then on were all confiscated.

Then, in just half a Shichen, they discovered the treasure house hidden beneath the lotus pond in the rear garden.

Only then did Owen Bertram pat Nathan Lane on the shoulder: "Go on, take what you want based on your intuition."

There were three layers of iron doors in the Treasury, surrounded by one-foot-thick stone walls and further separated by five layers of Array that isolate all escape techniques. The traps and mechanisms of various Cultivation Methods had already been easily cracked by the people of the Horizon Bureau in the passage leading to the Treasury.

Nathan Lane went in and was indeed a little dazed... He didn’t recognize any of the various treasures. It was only because he had entered Cultivation that he could sense the powerful aura emitted by these treasures.

Although the treasures left here had already been handpicked by Prince Henry, every one of them was not to be underestimated. If these treasures were known to outsiders, it would certainly lead to a desperate fight for possession.

Owen Bertram followed Nathan Lane into the Treasury and was also taken aback: On one wall of the treasure house, there was a square wooden cabinet made of precious sandalwood, and in each compartment, there was a Tier-4 Magical Artifact!

Aside from that, there were also several half-human-height tower-shaped stone platforms, most of which were empty, but there were still about a third of them with treasures displayed on top.

At least all the treasures placed on these stone platforms were Tier-5! Owen Bertram even saw two Tier-6 treasures!

David said with ulterior motives on the side: "What do you think? Do you want to choose one? There are two Tier-6 Magical Instruments here. If you put all your hopes on Dragon Abyss... who knows what’s in there? Prince Henry may have already emptied it, after all, with so many people bribed by him, the treasures he gave away must be quite a lot."

Owen Bertram took a deep breath, reminding himself inwardly: Hold back!

Although both of the magical instruments were Tier-6, careful observation revealed that they were on the weaker side among Tier-6 artifacts.

However, when Owen Bertram turned his head, he saw another stone platform with a spiritual medicine planted on it. It emitted an intoxicating fragrance and was not inferior to the "Baby" that his brother had just eaten!
