Chapter 983 Trouble As expected, Aarav had returned to the Havotune What shocked Gerald and the rest the most was that Aarav claimed to be the Death Lord of Nether King If that was the case, Gerald could understand why he could almost kill Robert with a slap. Death Lord was undoubtedly a top level master!
Gerald was uncertain about whether the Death Lord had existed since the dawn of time or if he had emerged as the new leader of Nether Palace following its downfall, without anyone noticing.
âDo you know this person?â Anabel asked.
Gerald did not choose to hide it. He nodded and said, âYes, and... Iâm quite familiar with him, but I canât tell you the specifics. Do you mean that Nether Palace is now in the public eye?â
âNo!â Carolyn said, âThey occupied the City of Hope. Apart from Aarav, there were ten people who directly destroyed the City of Hope. When someone from the Eight Forces attempted to intervene, they backed down upon encountering Aarav. Shortly thereafter, all the masters above the level of Flame Decay in the City of Hope vanished overnight, along with Aarav and his twenty followers!â
âIt appears that Nether Palace is indeed intent on making a comeback,â remarked Gerald with a frown.
Anabel said, âThatâs the main thing, isnât it?â
Gerald nodded. âI understand now. What about you guys? Do you plan to stay here or what?â
âFor the time being, they will be stationed here. This is the tomb of Geza the Great, and there are likely many treasures hidden inside. We must fight to claim them, no matter what,â he said. Looking towards Carolyn, he continued, âIn fact, if we manage to access the core area, both of you are likely to benefit the most. Regrettably, neither of you can reveal yourselves just yet!â
âIt doesnât matter.â Gerald smiled. âShould we leave now?â
âAgreed,â replied Anabel, nodding her head. âWe should depart after dinner. Itâs been such a long time since weâve seen each other. Who knows when weâll get the chance to meet again if we leave now?â
Gerald and the rest nodded.
After they finished their meal, the trio restrained their aura and followed Anabel out of the restaurant.
âWhich hotel are you staying at?â Anabel asked. âDo you need me to send you there?â
âThereâs no need for that.â Gerald smiled. âWe drove here in a hovercar. As for the hotel, weâre staying at...â
âAnabel Pierce!â Just then, a voice suddenly rang out.
Gerald turned his head and saw a few figures walking toward them not far away. They were dressed in black, and the leader was a middle-aged man with a strong aura of the supreme level of Flame Decay.
Gerald was a little surprised. Judging from the aura he exuded, he appeared to be more powerful than Nathanial Ingram, the War Dominator of the City of Phoenix.
He was dressed in black, and the cloak on his back had the logo of Soulreaper Sect. Obviously, that person was from Soulreaper Sect!
Behind him was an acquaintance of Gerald, Adolf Thiel.
Adolf also saw Gerald Kenneth, and a sinister smile appeared on his face.
Back when they were in the Nether Domain, there were some conflicts between them. If it werenât for the beast attack, there would have been a life-or-death fight between them.
Gerald had a terrible impression of this man. That guy was too sinister.
Anabel frowned slightly when she saw these people.
âHave you thought about what I told you last time? Although my son is talented, if you marry into our Soulreaper Sect...â At this time, the middle-aged man said.
But halfway through his words, Anabel interrupted him coldly, âSorry, Iâm not interested in your son.â
âDo you doubt my sonâs abilities?â The middle-aged man chuckled and continued, âIf you were to marry me and become his stepmother, it wouldnât be a bad thing at all.â
Anabel said with a gloomy face, âYouâd better watch your mouth!â
âHey!â At this time, the middle-aged manâs eyes fell on Carolyn and Valery, and a trace of surprise appeared on his face. He asked, âThese two beauties are not white hairs, and they are not wearing the Eight Forcesâ attire. Who are they?â he inquired. âIf youâre not interested, you could introduce them to me. One could be my concubine, and the other could be my sonâs wife.â
A cold glint flashed across Geraldâs eyes when he heard that.
At this time, Adolf suddenly stepped forward and whispered something in the middle-aged manâs ear.
The middle-aged man was slightly surprised. âHuh, are you the three who helped Anabel win first place in the trial? Thatâs interesting!â
âI heard that you refused to become the direct descendant of the Archaic Tribe? In that case, you are just ordinary people from the Havotune. How dare you not bow when you see us?â The middle-aged man walked toward Gerald and the rest.
A frivolous look flashed across his face as he said, âTo punish you, Iâve decided to choose someone to sleep.
with me tonight and this matter is over.â
Raising his finger, he remarked, âHey, the two of you are quite beautiful. This is quite troublesome. Why donât you two stay with me tonight? Iâm sure my body can handle it.â
With that, he reached out to pull Carolyn and Valery.
Gerald stepped forward and positioned himself in front of them. He arched his eyebrows and gazed at the middle aged man. âPardon me, but have you recently feasted on excrement? The stench is quite overpowering.â he remarked.
âWhat did you say?â The middle-aged manâs expression darkened. âHow dare a subordinate of the Archaic Tribe talk to me like that?â
With that, he raised his hand and slapped Gerald across the face.
At that moment, Anabel seized his arm and declared, âSantos, these individuals are not merely my subordinate but also my companions. Youâve overstepped your boundaries and owe them an apology!â
âApologize?â Santos scoffed. âYou want me to apologize to your subordinates, Anabel? You hold yourself in too high regard Allow me to clarify The three of them provoked me first. If these two women do not spend the night with me, this matter will not be resolved.â
âSantos, itâs been so many damn years, and you still act like this. Do you want to get with a woman every time you see one?â A voice interrupted at that moment, full of cursing.
Turning his head, he sighted a group of individuals emerging from a hover car nearby. Among them was Matt, the head of the Aggro Tribe, bare-chested. He glared at Santos with contempt and stated, âI overheard your prior comment. This matter is certainly not over. After all, Gerald is also a friend of mine. You made advances on my friendâs wife. I believe I need to teach you a lesson!â
Adolf and Santosâ expressions changed slightly.
With a gloomy face, he said, âMatt, are you going to turn against me for the sake of the Archaic Tribeâs subordinates?â
âTurn against you? Let me make this clear, if you do not kneel down and apologize to Gerald today and continue until he is content with your apology, this matter will not be resolved!â Matt chuckled heartily.
âAre you sure?â Santos looked at Gerald and the rest coldly and said, âBoy, youâre lucky this time. Two little beauties, sooner or later I will...â
Swoosh!
âItâs too late to apologize now!â Just then, a cold voice rang out in another hover car. Then, the car door opened, and Sheryl and the members of the Infinito family got out of the car. They surrounded both Santos and Adolf at the same time!
At this time, the expressions of the Soulreaper Sect and Santos completely changed!
âGerald and the team are my friends too!â Sheryl replied calmly.
