Chapter 4421
What was going on?
Yvette's gaze flashed. She walked forward briskly to pick it up, flip through it, and jerked in shock and
excitement.
Was that Skylar's chant?
Oh, that was wonderful. With the chant, she would not have to worry about the Fiend Soul Takeover anymore.
Yet, amidst her glee, Yvette was also a little angry.
That man was too cunning. It was clear that Kendall had given him the scroll for safekeeping, implying that there
had to be a certain level of trust between them. Yet the man insisted that he did not know where Kendall was.
i'm going to give you one last chance!"
Yvette put the scroll away as she said coldly to Sergio, "Tell me where Kendall Jones is, or I won't spare you any
mercy."
"I-"
Sergio flailed helplessly. He said, "She disappeared from an underground cave. I don't
know where she is now, I promise-"
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtSergio proceeded to describe what had happened. Of course, he left out the part where he
took advantage of Kendall and only spoke of absorbing her energy.
As he spoke, Sergio's chest pounded with wariness. He did not know who the New World
Empress was to Kendall. If they were friends, he would be done for.
He could not ask, so he could only give it a blind shot.
Finally, Sergio bowed endlessly. "Your Majesty, I'm telling the truth. None of that is false."
What?
Yvette's frown deepened in shock.
The man had absorbed Kendall's powers. Well, it served her right for her evil deeds-from
betraying Skylar and absorbing his fiend soul, she had it coming.
As she pondered that, Yvette stared at Sergio. "Did Kendall Jones disappear from an
underground cave?"
"Yes, I swear!" Sergio scrambled to nod hurriedly.
He did not seem to be lying. Yvette did not bother to continue asking and turned to
address the royal guards around her. "Tie him up for now. Keep him under strict
supervision for the next few days!"
The royal guards had dispersed the poison from their bodies. At the order, they quickly
tied Sergio up so he could not escape. 1
Whew!
Sergio exhaled relief. F*ck, at least he could keep his life.
At the same time, his chest thrummed with nerves and helplessness.
There was no way he would live if he were held captive by the New World Empress. He
had to find a way to get out somehow.
Meanwhile, in the Godly Region.
Three magical mountains stood a few kilometers away from the Imperial Sky Palace. Their
tops were lined with a halo of clouds, casting rays of light that circled them. Many
formations had been set up around them.
A void that swirled with endless colors was directly in the north—it was the Jade Spiritual Realm entrance.
The Jade Spiritual Realm was where the Ancient Ancestors did their closed cultivation. It was a standalone space
located in one of the most blessed locations in the Godly Region. 1
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmTwo stocky guards stood by the entrance, sporting silver helmets and wielding long spears. They radiated
authority and prestige. Those two guards were incredibly powerful and strong.
After all, that was where the Ancient Ancestors did their closed cultivation. It was a huge deal and not to be taken
lightly.
The guards also had a magical beast each. Those beasts had a dragon head, a tiger's body, a cow's hooves, and
the tail of a snake-it was a most peculiar sight. Those creatures were called Mighty Butes.
The Mighty Bute was a magical beast unique to the Godly Region. It had infinite sight and hearing and was also
incredibly strong. Even though only the two stood with the guards watching the entrance, not even a fly would be
able to get past them.
Just then, a figure approached rapidly and landed on the ground.
It was a young lady, clad in gray robes. She held a beautiful basket in her arms, containing a few spirit fruits.
"Stop right there!"
The guards rushed forward. They called out sharply, "Who are you? This is the Jade Spiritual Realm, and no one
can come in here. Get out of here."
The young lady's face was wrought with fear. She put down the basket hurriedly, sweeping into a deep bow.
Please don't be angry, honorable guards. I'm a new worker at the Spirit Fruit Orchard. I was sent here to give
Empress Heidi her spirit fruits today and got lost on the way."
