“Stop!”
“Stop fighting!!!”
Cecilia held Phyllis tightly in her arms, covering Phyllis’s eyes. She didn’t want Phyllis to see such a gruesome scene at such a young age.
And her! Seeing the retired members of the Bloody Wolf Group fall one after another in order to protect her, she couldn’t help but feel anxious. Especially when she saw Pierre Calder personally take action, punching Spirit Wolf away, and then turning to charge at Pupil Wolf, she finally couldn’t hold back, shouting loudly, “We accept the decree!”
“We accept the decree!!!”
Accepting the decree! That means accepting the contents of the imperial edict, acknowledging Sean as a traitor, and also acknowledging that they were Sean’s supporters!
It’s like dumping a bucket of filth over one’s own head!!!
But! Given the current situation, Cecilia had no other choice. She didn’t understand martial arts and couldn’t help at all. She couldn’t just stand by and watch as Pupil Wolf, Spirit Wolf, and the others were wounded, crippled, or even died in front of her!
Sadly, she was still one step too late!!!
There were only a few meters between Pierre Calder and Pupil Wolf. By the time Cecilia opened her mouth to stop him, Pierre Calder had already charged up to Pupil Wolf like a ghost!
With a punch! It was thrown out!
And Pupil Wolf, her eyes burning red, had long since dismissed life and death. She had no plan to survive today, so even when facing Pierre Calder’s fist, she had no intention to dodge!
Likewise! With a punch! It was thrown out!
However, although Pupil Wolf was nearly mad, she hadn’t lost her sanity. Knowing that Pierre Calder’s realm was higher than hers, and his dark energy was stronger, she wouldn’t stupidly counter punch for punch, seeking death!
So! She abandoned defense, leaving her chest to Pierre Calder, while her fist, carrying an unparalleled chill of dark energy, smashed fiercely towards Pierre Calder’s chest!
Plainly put! She wasn’t countering punch for punch! She was exchanging punch for punch! Exchanging injury for injury! Exchanging life for life!
I’ll punch you and you’ll punch me. Whether you can kill me or I can kill you, let’s leave it to fate!!!
“Crazy woman!”
Pierre Calder immediately guessed Pupil Wolf’s intent, slightly surprised. But it was too late. Everything happened in a flash, the punch had already been thrown, there was no time to hesitate or turn back!
So! Pierre Calder used his dark energy to protect his body, accepting Pupil Wolf’s challenge!!!
Boom!!! The next moment, as Pupil Wolf had predicted, Pierre Calder’s fist struck her chest, and her fist, as she had wished, struck Pierre Calder’s chest. Accompanied by the sound of dark energy interweaving and exploding, she felt as if she had been hit by a car in her chest, a force that was impossible to resist!
Crack!
Crack!
Crack!
In an instant, who knew how many bones Pierre Calder had broken!
Then! She was sent flying, shooting backwards, a mouthful of blood spraying out, and the pair of eyes that had forced the use of pupil techniques, once again shed a stream of blood tears!!!
Splash! She flew out a dozen meters or so and fell into the pond on the other side!
And Pierre Calder was also not doing too well!
Clearly! He had underestimated the lethal force of Pupil Wolf’s desperate blow. Even with his dark energy protecting his body, he was still forced back five or six steps by Pupil Wolf’s punch. His internal organs were churning violently, his throat was rolling, and a mouthful of blood almost spurted out!
Biting his teeth! Pierre Calder clutched his chest, swallowed back the blood, and with cold eyes stared at Pupil Wolf, who was floating in the pond, unconscious. He snorted, “Like an ant shaking a tree, you overestimate yourself!”
At this time!
With the fall of Pupil Wolf, all ten members of the Bloody Wolf Group were injured and crippled, completely losing their fighting power!
And this! Was exactly the result Eliott Garner wanted!
Now! There was no one left to fight by Cecilia’s side. Locking her in the Palace of Wolf was completely secure. When the North Kingdom envoy arrived in the capital, and the King of Night returned with Sean, all it would take was a word from King Ron, and the fate of the entire Palace of Wolf would be sealed!
“Lock them all in the attic!”
“Secure the premises!”
“Stand by for further orders!”
With a single order from Eliott Garner, the royal guards rushed forward, carrying the injured members of the Bloody Wolf Group into the opposite attic and incarcerating them.
Next, Eliott Garner turned to Cecilia and indicated, “Miss Moore, will you go in on your own, or shall we escort you?”
Cecilia stared at Eliott Garner, her eyes welling up.
She was shaking with rage.
Never in her life, even when she was ostracized in the Moore family, had Cecilia felt as helpless, as furious, or as full of hatred as she did now.
In a split second, for the first time in her life, Cecilia felt the urge to pick up a knife and kill someone.
She despised her own weakness, facing everything in a state of complete dependence on others for protection.
“General Garner, is it?”
Suddenly, Cecilia spoke up, “My husband, he will not die!”
“You!”
“You will not end well!”
“Absolutely not!”
After speaking, Cecilia took Phyllis with her and returned to the attic to check on the conditions of Pupil Wolf and Spirit Wolf.
Julia followed closely behind.
“Stop!”
Only a few steps out, Prince Adam, who had been watching the situation quietly from a distance, walked over and shouted at Julia, then turned to Eliott Garner with a smile, “General Garner, my daughter was deceived by the traitor Sean.”
“Please show some leniency, General Garner, and allow me to take her home.”
“Once home,”
“I will strictly discipline her and never let her step out of the house again…”
Hearing this, Julia stopped, turned around, and said to Prince Adam with a stoic expression, “You and I have severed our father-daughter relationship. My affairs are none of your concern.”
Having said that, she resolutely walked into the attic.
Little did she know that Julia had noticed Prince Adam’s presence early on. When Pupil Wolf and the others were being besieged by the royal guards, she had fantasized about how wonderful it would be if her father could intervene, or at least plead on their behalf.
Sadly, in the face of interests and risks, Prince Adam chose to protect himself and merely watched from the sidelines.
This strengthened Julia’s resolve to cut off her relationship with him.
If Julia knew the real reason Prince Adam had come, not out of concern for her safety, but out of fear that she would implicate him, one could only wonder how she would feel.
“You!”
“Rebel!”
Prince Adam was suddenly enraged and wanted to chase after her but was stopped by Eliott Garner.
“Wait, Prince Adam,” Eliott Garner said. “It seems that the princess willingly chose this path and was not deceived.”
“But…”
Before Prince Adam could argue, he was interrupted by Eliott Garner.
“The king has decreed,” Eliott Garner said in a suddenly chilling voice, “Everyone in the Palace of Wolf is to be confined here.”
“No exceptions!”
“Of course!”
“This includes the princess.”
In an instant, Prince Adam’s face turned ashen, his heart began to tremble violently. Recalling Luna Porter’s analysis, a daring thought emerged in his mind: Could it be that his father had planned everything and intended to make him the scapegoat after the ceasefire agreement with the North Kingdom?
Damn it!
At this thought, he couldn’t help but break out in a cold sweat.
“Prince Adam,” Eliott Garner said, “From this moment on, the Palace of Wolf is completely sealed off. Without the king’s permission, no one is allowed to enter or exit.”
“If there’s nothing else, please leave.”
As he said this, Eliott Garner checked the time and indicated, “The North Kingdom delegation will be arriving soon. I need to go north to greet them. I cannot afford to delay the ceasefire negotiations between the two countries.”
“I’m afraid you can’t afford it either.”
Prince Adam’s mouth twitched, but he had no retort. He could only grit his teeth and leave.
Eliott Garner ordered Pierre Calder to lead the thousand royal guards outside the Palace of Wolf. He then left with the royal guards towards the north to welcome the North Kingdom delegation.
