Chapter 4734
A few seconds later, another soldier walked out slowly with an unreadable expression on
his face.
"Your Highness! I have a friend who often wanders around the world.
According to him, the tables have turned dramatically among the pirates in the past six
months. The Sea Dragon Hall pirates recently appointed a new leader who's made herself
the Sea Dragon Empress, and she even changed the name of the Sea Dragon Hall to the
Sea Dragon Palace, i "Just the day before, the Sea Dragon Palace usurped an incredibly
strong force from the Waller Island and made the island their main altar. I'm guessing the
Sea Dragon Palace pirates invaded Bright Jewel Harbor.
"My friend said that the Sea Dragon Palace pirates are incredibly powerful, and they've
collected over a hundred thousand men. They're no small feat."
Sea Dragon Palace? They had over a hundred thousand men?
The surrounding officials exchanged glances, unable to hide their shock. It was important
to note that countless pirate groups had been at war forever in the past thousands of
years, yet nothing had come out of it. And now, this Sea Dragon Palace was able to usurp
other islands and call them their own. No small feat, indeed.
To have over a hundred thousand men- this kind of army was strong enough to compete

Whew!
Just then, Shannon's exquisite features grew solemn as well. "By rule of deduction, the
men they took from us should be at Waller Island now." "That's right!" The soldier
scrambled to nod. "I think that's the case."
Shannon could hardly contain her anger. She stood up, scoffing coldly," This Sea Dragon
Palace has gone too far. I can't sit and watch this go on and do nothing about my hundreds
of thousands of men. Send out orders immediately to take down the Sea Dragon Palace as
soon as possible!: i
What Shannon did not know then was that the Sea Dragon Empress was no other than the
Fiend Martyr, who had been rescued from her palace, Morticia.
"Yes, Your Highness!”
An hour later, two hundred thousand South Cloud soldiers set out under Shannon's own
lead to Bright Jewel Harbor with gusto. 3
Over on another end, Darryl had reached quite far into the Black Swamp under the lead of
the Demon warriors.
Whew!
At the entrance of the mysterious cave, Darryl could not help but gasp sharply.
All that could be seen was that the cave was over a hundred meters wide. It was black and
bottomless. Standing at its edge, one could clearly feel a mysterious energy that surged
from underneath endlessly.
On top of that, the surrounding temperature was also much higher than that of other
places.
True enough, there was something else to this hole.
As he pondered to himself, Darryl turned to address the other warriors." Stand guard here,
all of you. Unless you feel you absolutely have to, don't even think about coming after
me."
As he spoke, Darryl summoned his energy as he leaped into the cave in one swift move.
At the order, the other Demon warriors called out in acknowledgment as they spread out
to stand guard. ’ Alright!"
What the Demon warriors did not realize was that a charming figure stood nearby. She was
clad in a jade green dress, breathtaking and beautiful.
It was Cloud Spirit.
Cloud Spirit was greatly displeased upon being told to wait at the palace for Darryl, and
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmthus, she had snuck out to the Black Swamp.
Huh?
Cloud Spirit was stunned at the sight that greeted her when she reached the gigantic hole.
Why were the Demon Warriors there, but Barely Immortal was nowhere to be found?
Also... What was that gigantic hole doing there?
Cloud Spirit observed the surroundings for a while longer. Her suspicion grew as time
passed and Darryl was still nowhere to be found.
'Could... could this old geezer have gone down the black hole?'
She did not spare another second. She summoned her powers, turning herself into a wisp
of vapor before ducking into the hole.
Huh?
Cloud Spirit moved incredibly fast, leaving the surrounding Demon Warriors confused out
of their minds.
"Did you see something?" "I must be going blind..."
Darryl continued to sink in the Black Swamp. He could clearly sense that the deeper he
fell, the stronger the scorching sensation around him.
Thump!
Finally, he landed on solid ground. Darryl heaved a sigh of relief as he glanced around him.
All that could be seen was a gigantic underground cave that snaked out in countless
directions, like a huge maze.
