Chapter 2621: Chapter 1443: An Unexpected Appearance (Part 2)
âAre you all deaf? This stubborn fool is leading you to destruction!â
Seeing that the situation was not developing as he had anticipated, the scar-faced werewolf appeared furious, yelling, âHavenât you killed him already?â
Hearing this, the Catman elders remained indifferent, resolutely standing behind Lannis, expressing their stance through action.
Although their Clan Leader was upright and stubborn, he was also fair and just, having long earned the loyalty and respect of both themselves and the entire Desert Catman Clan, so they naturally would not heed these ambitious wolves.
âFine, just you wait, Lord Leader will not spare you!â
With no other options, the scar-faced werewolf, after realizing his side was insufficient in strength to shake Lannis, had to forcibly extinguish his intent to kill and turned to leave.
âTell your Vice Leader, the truth will never be hidden, nor can it ever be hidden. In pursuit of the truth, even if ahead lies a mountain of knives or a sea of fire, nothing will stop our steps!â
Lannis crossed his arms, his voice resonated powerfully.
âWhat grand and lofty words.â
Just as Lannis finished speaking, another unfamiliar male voice suddenly echoed in the hall.
The crowd, in shock, looked towards the source of the voice, discovering that a young man of the Human Clan stood at the other end of the hall, his expression calm and undisturbed.
It was none other than Leo Ray.
âThe Emperor of the Humans?!â
Seeing Leo Rayâs figure, both Lannis and the Catman Clan warriors, as well as the scar-faced werewolf and his minions, widened their eyes in disbelief.
The magic portrait of Leo Ray had long spread throughout the entire Desert Alliance, and everyone recognized it immediately.
âEmperor of the Humans, how did you arrive here?â
In surprise, a Catman elder with white whiskers couldnât help but ask in disbelief.
Itâs worth noting, this was the Clan Leader Hall of their Desert Catman Clanâs capital, heavily guarded and filled with many defensive magic arrays and detection arrays, including the Absolute Defense Barrier. Not even an Oriole could fly in, let alone the unfamiliar Emperor of the Humans.
Among the startled crowd, Lannis wore a contemplative look, not speaking immediately.
âThereâs no need to be surprised, take a look at this.â
Leo Ray turned his hand, revealing the Masked Manâs pendant.
âIsnât this the personal item of Young Clan Leader Emily?â
An elderly female Catman elder reacted with fierce intent, saying, âEmperor of the Humans, so it was you who ambushed the Leader and the Young Clan Leader!â
âNow that the evidence is clear, arenât you going to quickly kill him to avenge your Young Clan Leader?â
The scar-faced werewolf immediately fanned the flames, slowly approaching Leo Ray.
Upon hearing this, including the female elder just now, several Catman elders let out low growls, revealing their claws that they had suppressed.
âEveryone, calm down and think about where we are. Even if he obtained the pendant from Emily, he couldnât possibly have arrived here.â
Lannis waved his hand to stop them, saying, âMoreover, Emily is one of the Lord Leaderâs guards and underwent extremely rigorous anti-spiritual attack training. Even a Tier 6 Peak expert could not extract any useful information from her mind, and Emily could freely move around here using this pendant.â
Upon hearing Lannisâ words, those Catman elders regained their composure.
The Clan Leader was right. Emily had been mischievous from a young age, often sneaking out to play with children from other clans in the alliance, but she would always encounter barriers upon return, earning the Clan Leaderâs reprimands.
As she grew older, Emily began studying ways to bypass various barriers, persistently working with and pestering the elders in charge of deploying and maintaining the barriers, eventually finding an extremely complex exclusive route, avoiding all detection arrays and various magic traps, with the pendant being the only key to this route.
Later, although Lannis learned of this, he did not block the loophole that only Emily knew about, because if any incident occurred in the Catman capital, Emily would be the only one able to come and go freely, revealing her irreplaceable significance.
Besides, as the Clan Leader mentioned earlier, although mischievous, Emily was exceptionally talented, displaying extraordinary strength and cultivation abilities from a young age, breaking several records, considered a prodigy unseen in the clan for a thousand years.
Especially in resisting spiritual attacks, she even surpassed these elders, which was one of the reasons she was chosen as a guard by the Leader.
This indicates that unless Emily personally told this Emperor of the Humans the exact route, he could never have silently arrived here.
At the other end of the hall, seeing the alert in the Catman eldersâ eyes gradually fade, although Leo Ray remained expressionless, he couldnât help the slight trepidation in his heart.
Indeed, he had arrived here using the information from the masked Emily, who had even drawn him a detailed route map.
But due to the other partyâs limited drawing abilities, it appeared no different from a tangled mess. If not for the distinct features of the Catman Clan buildings and the uncomplicated corridors, he might have lost his way in this massive palace not much smaller than the Coldflame.
âYour Majesty of the Humans, why did Emily entrust the token and the route here to you? What exactly happened?â
Urgency surged on Lannisâs determined face as he questioned Leo Ray.
Before Lannis finished speaking, the scar-faced werewolf, seeing that the situation wasnât favorable, quickly interrupted, âClan Leader of the Catman, donât be deceived by this cunning Emperor of the Humans!â
âYour Excellency the Envoy, Iâm merely asking a question to His Majesty of the Humans. Why are you so nervous?â
Lannis furrowed his brows slightly and said calmly, âCould it be that you fear we might uncover some unspeakable secret?â
âThis envoy finally understands; you must be colluding with that Emperor of the Humans, hence the refusal to dispatch troops!â
The scar-faced werewolf retorted, sneering coldly, âThen this envoy will crush your hopes! Emperor of the Humans, die!â
With that, unbeknownst to all, the scar-faced werewolf had approached Leo Ray, releasing a dense murderous intent, his long-handled axe suddenly appearing as he attacked Leo with killing intent.
Instantly, the scar-faced werewolfâs overwhelming energy filled the hall, even causing the space to slightly distort, his momentum extremely impressive.
Witnessing this, the Catman elders couldnât help but feel a chill in their hearts.
The scar-faced werewolfâs power at Tier 6 Two Star was formidable, even within the notorious Moon Demon Wolf Clan, he was infamous. Itâs said several second-tier power experts suffered losses at his hands, some even killed by him.
And although the Emperor of the Humans was renowned, the Humans were still too immature⊠The most critical issue was that at this distance, even the strongest Lannis couldnât stop the otherâs move.
However, just as the scar-faced werewolf, with enormous malice, was about to reach Leo Ray, Leo Ray was already enveloped by a purple light, making his move first.
In the next second, the scar-faced werewolf felt a dazzling thunder light before him as an overwhelming powerful energy surged over, effortlessly shattering his thick energy barrier like it was nothing.
Looking down, he realized a colorful longsword had already pierced through him, leaving a massive hole in his chest.
âYou bastard, how is this possible?â
The ferocity in the scar-faced werewolfâs eyes instantly froze on his sinister face, his massive lifeless body collapsing with a thud on the ground.
Seeing this, the entire hall fell silent.
