Chapter 726

Chapter 726 Trapped A cold sneer interrupted Simeon before he could finish his sentence, and Emrys, who was just about to ask why Yelena couldn’t detect the ghost clan aura within Levente, turned to see. an elderly man.

“Haha, Simeon, don’t you think you’ve been a bit too talkative today?” The man’s body was hunched over, his hair a silvery grey, and he wore an eerie smile.

He was none other than Levente, or to be more specific, one of the four Soul Kings of the ghost clan, Harlan Gast.

Behind him was a young, unfamiliar man.

Yelena had already regained her composure and leaned over to Emrys, saying, “Rys, the man behind Levente is the same ghost clan member we encountered near our home that day.”

The unfamiliar man was indeed Jonas.

Yelena could sense the familiar aura emanating from him, but she couldn’t perceive anything from Levente at all.

Emrys nodded.

Simeon suddenly grew agitated, and his eyes that had regained focus turned bloodshot once more as he glared at Levente with. hatred.

“Harlan! Let me out! I’m going to kill you!” roaring at the top of his lungs, Simeon gripped the bars of the cage, allowing the power of the ancient formation marks to penetrate his body.

Buzz!

His frail and skinny body trembled violently. However, the pain he was enduring at that moment was nothing compared to the overwhelming hatred that filled his heart.

“Simeon, you traitor. You secretly nurtured a remnant of the spirit fox clan and also had the audacity to reveal our clan’s secrets. Nothing you do will be enough to cleanse your sins.” Harlan stared coldly at Simeon, his abyss–like eyes flickering with intense murderous intent.

A moment later, he scoffed and turned to the man behind him. “Jonas, go and turn off the formation marks of the cage.”

Jonas stepped out without hesitation, and shortly after, the formation marks etched all around the cage formation that held Simeon dimmed.

Simeon, clinging to the cage’s bars, was no longer subjected to the formation marks‘ assault.

“Heh, Herlan, you finally have the courage to face me in a fight to the death after imprisoning me for over twenty years, huh? You coward!” Simeon hollered, his tone carrying a hint of mockery.

He possessed the strongest soul energy among the four Soul Kings, while Harlan’s soul energy was the weakest. Therefore, Simeon had always looked down upon Harlan.

If the three Soul Kings hadn’t joined forces back then, Harlan himself wouldn’t have stood a chance against Simeon.

This was also why Harlan only dared to confine Simeon in Dragon Soul Penitentiary for over twenty years.

Harlan’s expression darkened when Simeon mocked him.

At that moment, Simeon turned to look at Emrys. “Young man, I have a favor to ask of you. Kill me.”

“Kill you?”

Emrys‘ face showed a look of surprise.

Simeon nodded. “I am trapped in this body, unable to fully utilize my power. Only when the original host of this body dies completely can I break free. This is the ghost clan’s weakness.”

The ghost clan could infiltrate human bodies and manipulate their consciousness, and their methods of disguise were incredibly potent. However, their weakness was also quite pronounced.

The host’s body would serve as a constraint for the ghost clan after it had deteriorated.

Over two decades ago, Titus‘ body became incapacitated in the clash between Simeon and the other three Soul Kings. His elixir field was entirely obliterated, and after enduring imprisonment for more than twenty years, he now lay in a state of complete ruin.

Hence, he seemed as emaciated as a rail. At this point, this body had transformed into a confining restraint for Simeon. Trapped within, he couldn’t unleash his full power, yet he couldn’t seek a way out with death, either.
