Cloud nodded, holding the coin in his hand before boarding the airship together with Jared. Their ship
subsequently soared into the sky and flew toward Imperial Beast City.
The airship had made traveling a lot easier for them. All they needed to do was quietly wait until they
arrived at their destination. Meanwhile, Imperial Beast City was on full alert.
A huge amount of guards were standing vigntly at their stations. On top of a hill nearby, hordes of
soldiers had appeared alongside an equally massive amount of demon beasts.
Separated by a distance of a few thousand meters, both sides were raring to get at each other’s
throats. At that moment, the frowning Yuven was sitting on the throne in the pce with his generals
gathered in front of him.
However, there was ack of powerful warriors, as the strongest among them was no more than a
Seventh Level Body Fusion Realm cultivator.
Ever since Xandros and Tigerus seized Imperial Beast City through their plot, the powerful warriors
who were loyal to Yuven ended up being ughtered in secret. Tigerus was worried that he could not
put them down in the event of a rebellion.
As he had secured his position with the help of Norwal City, he knew that he could never rely on them
forever to establish his reign. He had killed anyone in the city who posed a threat to him.

The purge had wiped out the most powerful warriors in the city, leaving only the Body Fusion Realm
cultivators standing before Yuven.
Initially, Imperial Beast City had five powerful warriors protecting the king. Only when the city was in
danger would Yuven trigger a secret mechanism for them to appear.
All five of them were Tribtor cultivators who, under normal circumstances, were constantly in training
and would not get involved in the city’s affairs.
However, Tigerus’ betrayal had been so sudden that Yuven didn’t manage to summon them in time.
After Yuven took back the city and killed Tigerus, the first thing he did was to check on the five, but he
soon discovered that they had died miserable deaths.
Without a doubt, Tigerus had caught them off guard and ughtered them all.
The turn of events had drastically reduced the strength of Imperial Beast City.
Other than Yuven alone, there was no other Tribtor cultivator within it.
Fortunately, the city had plenty of guards. Together with the demon beasts in the city’s vicinity, they had
formed an army of more than ten thousand, enough to protect the city for the time being.
Nevertheless, when Lucian learned of Yuven’s return and how he had taken back the city, he
immediately sent his army to attack it again.
Given that Lucian hade prepared and had brought along many powerful warriors, his army
obviously had the upper hand.
In spite of that, the moat protecting Imperial Beast City prevented him fromunching a direct attack,
resulting in the current stalemate.
“Your Majesty, King Lucian is just too much for attempting to invade us. At most, we will fight him to the
death!” one of the generals suggested, breaking the silence in the room.
“I disagree. King Lucian is obviously more powerful than us. I think we should make peace. Since he
hasn’t attacked us right away, I have a feeling that he is open to the idea. We can send out an emissary
to discuss terms. Worsees to worst, we’ll offer them resources in return for their retreat,” another
general proposed, fearful of Lucian’s strength.
The mere mention of making peace triggered a frown from Yuven and a murderous glint in his eyes.
ring at the general who suggested it, Yuven swung his palm at him.
Boom…
The general, who was sent flying by the impact, exploded in midair. The gruesome scene caused
everyone in the room to catch their breath in fear.
“I’ve gathered you to discuss how to defeat the enemy, not to have you beg for peace. This is the
consequence of attempting to lower the army’s morale,” Yuven said in an icy tone.
