Chapter 1448 Being Truly Betrayed

Book:Lord Came Back From The Battlefield Published:2024-6-3

“Get lost!”
Facing Zain Guthrie’s attack, Opal’s eyes narrowed, and a palm strike met his strike.
With a loud bang, they both stepped back seven or eight steps, and the ground under their feet cracked open.
“Huh?” After stabilizing his figure, Zain Guthrie’s pupils slightly contracted. Obviously, he didn’t expect Opal to effortlessly block his attack.
“You’re really something, repaying kindness with enmity!” Stout looked at Zain Guthrie and continued speaking. “I kindly reminded you that you’ve been cuckolded, yet you think of killing me. How ungrateful you are!”
“Since that’s the case, then I won’t tell you that your precious son, Abram Guthrie, isn’t your biological child!”
“Ridiculous, what nonsense are you spouting!” Zain Guthrie’s face flushed with anger.
“Abram Guthrie is the son of your wife and another man. Don’t you know?” Stout continued provoking him.
“Outrageous!” A sixth-rank Sacred Realm expert behind Zain Guthrie roared and attacked.
However, his attack was nullified mid-way by Opal’s palm strike, and he slid back a hundred meters before stopping. As fellow sixth-rank Sacred Realm cultivators, it was challenging for him to contend with Opal.
Meanwhile, as the old man launched his attack, Mekhi Drake also acted. A tremendous aura erupted from him, causing everyone around to involuntarily retreat.
“Ignorant brat, daring to tarnish the duke’s reputation, I’ll take your life!” With a stern tone, he sent a formidable imprint towards Stout, causing a gale to blow.
“You couldn’t hold back, huh?” Billy narrowed his eyes, and his saber clashed with Mekhi Drake’s attack.
With a loud bang, Billy stepped back ten steps, and Mekhi Drake also retreated three or four steps.
“Not bad, managing to withstand my blow!” Mekhi Drake’s tone turned heavy. “Then, take another one from me!”
“Are you planning to kill to keep it quiet?” White Tiger shouted, then turned to Zain Guthrie. “Zain, if I’m not mistaken, before your main wife married you, she spent several years in the Five Elements Sect, right?”
“What are you trying to say?” Zain Guthrie roared again upon hearing White Tiger’s words.
As White Tiger mentioned, his main wife did indeed spend two or three years cultivating in the Five Elements Sect before getting married. Such occurrences were common in the four major empires. Many noble families liked sending their children to sects for martial training. It wasn’t surprising for children of palace officials in the Crimson Flame Empire to have trained in major sects.
“Heh, don’t you understand what I mean?” White Tiger continued. “Don’t you realize that your wife had an affair with the former head of the Five Elements Sect before marrying you?”
“Even more absurdly, even after marrying you, she didn’t cut ties with him completely, meeting with him from time to time.”
“Your precious son Abram Guthrie has no relation to you; you’re just raising someone else’s child…”
This matter was the bargaining chip the Sect Master of the Blazing Sun Sect used in Desire City back then. Billy could tell from that Sect Master’s eyes that it wasn’t fabricated, so he spared his life. As for how the Sect Master knew this secret, it wasn’t Billy’s concern.
Boom! Zain Guthrie erupted with an overwhelming pressure, then turned to Mekhi Drake. “Is what he said true?!”
“Your Highness, don’t listen to his nonsense, they’re trying to sow discord!” Mekhi Drake furrowed his brows tightly.
Speaking, he was also shocked. He always thought that apart from him and Zain Guthrie’s wife, no one else knew about this. But now, Billy and the others brought it up. He couldn’t fathom how they knew.
“Heh, am I talking nonsense? Your Highness should think about it.” White Tiger sneered.
“Don’t you think Abram Guthrie looks a lot like this Sect Master?” Until today, he wasn’t completely sure of the gossip’s truth. But after seeing Mekhi Drake just now, everyone knew the Sect Master of the Blazing Sun Sect wasn’t lying. It was because of Mekhi Drake’s strong genetic resemblance that Abram Guthrie looked so much like him.
“Mekhi Drake, shouldn’t you say something?” Zain Guthrie already had an answer in his heart.
Before, he never thought about this and didn’t see a strong resemblance between Abram Guthrie and Mekhi Drake. But now, after White Tiger’s reminder and a closer look at Mekhi Drake, he felt they were almost identical.
Coupled with his wife’s frequent visits to the Five Elements Sect under the guise of seeing old friends, it was clear she was visiting an old lover!
“Your Highness, he…” Mekhi Drake furrowed his brows.
“Mekhi Drake, you old dog, face your death!” Without waiting for him to finish, Zain Guthrie angrily interrupted.
As his voice fell, his aura soared to the limit. Then, he unleashed his full strength, forming an imprint and smashing it towards Mekhi Drake with immense force.
Facing Zain Guthrie’s full-strength attack, Mekhi Drake naturally didn’t dare to underestimate it and dodged to the side.
“Attack together, kill him!” After a failed strike, Zain Guthrie shouted at the four men and women behind him before attacking again. They didn’t hesitate, unleashing their strongest powers.
“You’re seeking death!” Mekhi Drake countered.
In the next moment, the two sides clashed fiercely in mid-air, shadows flickering, and waves of energy surging.
Meanwhile, the others in the Five Elements Sect looked up, utterly bewildered. What’s going on? Why are they fighting? Aren’t they from Skydragon City?
“Boss, should we join the fray or watch?” Azure Dragon asked Billy.
“Kill all the members from the Elder Pavilion in the Five Elements Sect,” Billy responded firmly.
“Cripple others’ cultivation. If they resist, kill them!”
“Understood!” They replied and swiftly moved out.
Casey and Amber faced off against the Elder Pavilion members. Azure Fang, Azure Dragon, and others charged towards the surrounding disciples of the Five Elements Sect.
The two Skydragon Shadows naturally didn’t stand idly by and followed suit.
“Let’s fight!” The Elder Pavilion members knew there was no escape, so they chose to fight to the death!
