Chapter 218: Chapter 216: Overwhelming Looking Cloud Cliff_1

The speed of Lord of the Skeleton Sea was unbelievably fast. That terrifying pale white fire wave, in just a blink of an eye, had crossed thousands of miles and appeared outside Casterly County.

Lord of the Skeleton Sea stopped and opened his palm, with Lord trembling inside.

"Where was your treasure stolen?"

Lord’s ghost eyes spun around as he gazed down at Casterly County together with the Lord of the Skeleton Sea. Soon, they found the Prescott Group at Looking Cloud Cliff.

He pointed a finger: "My lord, it’s around there."

Lord of the Skeleton Sea roared as he charged forward.

This time, it was the turn of the members of the Horizon Bureau at Looking Cloud Cliff’s Prescott Group to experience the terror that the outpost had just felt. The white light waves covered the entire Prescott Group’s surroundings.

Fortunately, this Prescott Group was built by the Horizon Bureau to guard Copper Gorge. After spending huge amounts of resources, the people below didn’t dare to be too corrupt. The Prescott Group was not only very sturdy but also had a protective array.

Seeing the ghost object rushing toward them, without hesitation, they activated the array. Everyone hid inside the Prescott Group and didn’t dare to come out!

Lord of the Skeleton Sea completed a circle and found nothing. Annoyed, he asked, "There’s no trace of the thief! What’s the treasure you lost?"

Lord quickly responded, "My lord, it’s an Element-devouring Beehive that’s two meters tall."

"That’s quite a rare treasure." The eyes of Lord of the Skeleton Sea rolled.

In the cultivation world, the Element-devouring Beehives were like the "gambling stones" of Owen Bertram’s previous life. Due to the unique characteristics of these demon beasts, the beehives may contain rare and precious minerals, or they may have nothing at all.

However, the overall probability was much higher than that of gambling stones.

The Lord of the Skeleton Sea rarely used his brain, but he praised, "This treasure will be an excellent draw if sold at the Grand Gathering."

Lord added, "I have always suspected that it was stolen by someone from the Horizon Bureau."

Lord of the Skeleton Sea hesitated slightly, as Honored Lord had said before not to harass the living. However, it is also for the Honored Lord’s sake to retrieve the treasure, creating a dilemma...

Noticing the predicament, Lord cleverly suggested, "Why not have my lord stay here while I go down to negotiate? If they fear the divine majesty of my lord, they might return the treasure obediently."

Lord of the Skeleton Sea nodded, pretending to agree, "This plan... coincides with my thoughts. Fine, you go."

Sophia relayed the message that all the beehives had been taken away by the Horizon Bureau, and that Lord Prescott was being controlled by a mysterious force, turning into a puppet.

Owen Bertram devised the plan to invite the Lord of the Skeleton Sea for two reasons: one was to try to get some beehives back and analyze the treasures based on the components; the other was to test the strength of the forces behind the scenes, and if it were possible to figure out who they were, they would not be caught off guard.

If an opportunity arises, the best outcome would be for Lord to instigate the opponent, and in panic, they would challenge the Lord of the Skeleton Sea to a decisive battle!

Owen Bertram had great confidence in Little Bone’s strength, and the one that was sure to lose would be the mysterious force with the Fifth Great Domain at its helm.

Lord floated and landed at the entrance of the Prescott Group on Looking Cloud Cliff!

After tens of thousands of years, the Wood Dynasty had finally reached this disgraceful state under the torment of one reckless descendant after another: a mere ghost dared to swagger around in front of the Prescott Group, utterly outrageous!

Lord swaggered and shook his head, feeling quite pleased, "Listen up, you living beings inside..."

Return those beehives you took, or my lord will come in and massacre until blood flows into a river and not a single dog or chicken is left!"

Lord of the Skeleton Sea felt that this little ghost was a bit rampant, but then he thought that this time they came out to establish prestige and represent the dignity of the Ghost Zone, being rampant was actually a good thing.

Inside the Prescott Group, the military officers’ faces turned pale, large beads of sweat rolling down their cheeks. They never expected that the demon beings inside Copper Gorge wouldn’t pose a fatal threat to them, but a ghost from the downstream of the Rouge River would come to destroy their Prescott Group.

Everyone’s eyes turned to Lord Prescott.

Lately, those who were close to Lord Prescott had noticed some changes in him but did not dare to mention it.

For example, at this moment, disaster had struck, but Lord Prescott’s face was still cold and hard, as if there was no emotion at all.

Lord Prescott said with a stiff voice, "Pour all the remaining spirit jade into the array."

At this moment, no one thought about embezzlement, not only filling all the remaining spirit jade in the Prescott Group into the array but even some throwing in their private ones, fearing that the array’s power wouldn’t be enough.

The radiance of the array suddenly increased by three points. Lord Prescott’s body stiffened as he floated up in the air within the array, glaring at the giant hand above. He shouted, "Daring to offend the Horizon Bureau, are you not afraid of being crushed by the entire Imperial Court’s power?"

Lord interrupted before the Lord of the Skeleton Sea could answer, "Hand over those beehives, and we’ll leave immediately!"

Lord of the Skeleton Sea felt that "leaving immediately" didn’t sound imposing enough, but then thought that if they were to destroy this Prescott Group, the entire Wood Dynasty would probably send its army to encircle the Ghost Zone.

Inside the Prescott Group, everyone, other than Lord Prescott, was willing.

However, Lord Prescott’s face remained cold, staring unyielding at the giant hand.

The giant hand had already landed on the array of light, and the pale white flame did not burn but crushed. The entire array instantly made a creaking sound as if it were unbearable and might collapse at any moment.

"My lord!" One of the men could not help but try to dissuade, "Those beehives are not of great use to us, either..."

Once someone spoke up, the other military officers followed suit and pleaded.

But Lord’s face still remained cold, and he said, "Very good, a mere ghost dares to be an enemy of the entire Wood Dynasty!" The military officers below secretly cried out in their hearts, thinking that Lord Prescott was going to be "unyielding till death." However, Lord Prescott suddenly tossed out a storage brocade pouch, "Take it."

The brocade pouch fell outside the Prescott Group, and the bundle of spirit light on Lord vanished. He rushed over quickly, picked up the pouch and opened it for a look. He then nodded to the Lord of the Skeleton Sea in the sky, and the Lord received his divine powers. "This time we came out to let you little fellows know that the ghost market’s Grand Gathering and Small Gathering are our bottom lines. If you dare to reach out, we will chop off your claws!"

Lord Prescott and the others were all puzzled: What does he mean?

What ghost market? Grand Gathering, Small Gathering?

You ghosts are also into temple fairs?

However, in the night sky, Lord of the Skeleton Sea had already wrapped up Lord and turned into a tide of pale white fire, rumbling back in the direction they came from.
