Chapter 3669
The First Heir
Suddenly, Amber found a card under the womanâs body. There was a black lantern on the card with the
words âUnderworldâ next to the lantern.
Amber frowned. The card was weird no matter how he looked at it.
As Amber was about to pick up the card, Lydia stopped him. âDonât touch that thing!â
Hearing Lydiaâs exclamation, Amber was startled. He did not expect that Lydia would have such a big
reaction upon seeing this card.
Amber asked, âDo you recognize this thing?â
Lydia gulped nervously and said, âThis is an invitation card from the Archaic Underworld. They usually
use this method to invite people they fancy.â
After a slight pause, Lydia continued, âItâs rumored that none of the invited guests would return alive.â
Hearing that, Amber realized how serious this matter was.
âAre you saying that the Archaic Underworld is even more powerful than the Ishac?â
Lydia did not answer Amberâs question but stared at the card on the ground. That was because, at this
time, the card was covered in green flames.
A voice said among the green flames, âAmber Clarke, Lydia, the Archaic Underworld awaits your
presence at the Omas Abyss three days later.â
It was a magnetic male voice, but Amber could see that Lydiaâs hair stood on end.
Amber could not understand why a simple card like this could scare Lydia almost out of his wits.
At this moment, the burning card turned into two imprints stamped on Amberâs and Lydiaâs hands.
Amber even tried to use his level 7S fire element to destroy the mark to no avail.
Lydia slumped on the floor and said wryly, âDuring the few days I was with you, Iâve experienced things
that Iâve never experienced before.â
Then, Lydia told Amber about the Archaic Underworld.
The Archaic Underworld was a remote and sinister place where many powerful people on this continent
would seek refuge from their enemies. No one could govern that place, and most people formed their
little circles.
Every year, two envoys from the Archaic Underworld would distribute these cards, which was an
invitation card.
However, no one had ever returned from the Archaic Underworld alive, so no one knew what happened
to those who went there.
It was not that no one refused, but those who did would get their entire families killed. Since then, no
one dared to refuse, although they were sure to die.
Hearing Lydiaâs explanation, Amber suddenly laughed.
He did not think that the Archaic Underworld would select people every year just to kill them. They must
have their purpose for doing so.
No matter what their purpose was, Amber guessed that they would never allow the participants to die
before they went there.
Thinking of this, Amber was no longer so worried about the Ishacâs assassination.
