Chapter 939
This collapse must have originated from Odom himself, for they detected no fluctuations of clashing energies between the two.Yet why had Odom crumbled? No one could fathom the reason. And as they stood dumbfounded, Albert—who had slapped Odom into the lake with a single blow—smiled faintly. He glanced at the blood-red bracelet on his wrist and nodded in quiet satisfaction.Odom’s collapse moments earlier had come about because he had been overwhelmed by the malevolent aura of the Three-Tailed Sky Wolf, his resolve shattered by sheer terror.The Three-Tailed Sky Wolf had now advanced to the Divine Realm, and its malevolent aura was utterly terrifying indeed. For a mere Light Soul Body cultivator like Odom, caught off guard, it was next to impossible to withstand such an aura.Simply put, Albert had harnessed the Three-Tailed Sky Wolf’s malevolent aura to deliver a mental shock to Odom.Odom had failed to endure it, and his mind had instantly slipped into chaos, leaving him at Albert’s
Chapter 938
Lisa could only grit her silver teeth in frustration at Albert’s thick skin, then turned to Odom and said, Odom, defeat him.Odom nodded confidently, stepped forward to stand side by side with Albert, and smiled faintly: Commander Albert, you may have defeated Elvis, but that doesn’t mean you can beat me.Albert glanced at him and offered a well-meaning warning: Being a sycophant never ends well.Rage flared in Odom at once. How despicable this man was! No wonder even Verity, who had such impeccable poise, had been goaded into losing her composure by him.Odom ground his teeth and said, Enough with your cheap talk.At that moment, Baron also stepped forward and stated: By the rules, the moment you set foot on the water, both sides may use any means to hinder each other from reaching the lotus leaves. If anyone falls into the water before reaching them, they lose.If both of you reach the lotus leaves at the same time, you must fight on them, and the final victor shall claim the lotus

The moment her words left her lips, a look of regret crossed many faces in the crowd, and a sharp sense of disappointment hung in the air. This had been the highlight of the evening’s feast, yet Albert had single-handedly killed the mood.It stirred a flicker of resentment toward Albert in countless hearts.Baron’s brows furrowed too. As the host of this feast, he was plainly displeased with how things had unfolded.Albert shot Verity a glance. Her jade-pale face glowed with an irresistible allure beneath the moonlight, yet he could not shake the feeling that she had come for him—and him alone.Indeed, it might even be that she had attended this feast for no other reason than to see him.This was no infatuation with his looks, of course; it stemmed from the tangled grudges between their elders.Albert had no proof of this, only a gut feeling.He smiled and asked, You seem quite set on having me fight for you, Miss Verity?Verity smiled a radiant smile. I merely follow the choice of my
Chapter 936
Verity lifted her hand gently, the lamplight glinting on her fingers—clear and translucent as glazed jade, flawless and exquisitely delicate.The turquoise butterfly took flight under the watchful eyes of all.Many young men stared at it with blazing, expectant gazes, hoping it would land before them. It would be their chance to fetch the lotus seed for Verity, and perhaps even win a smile from the beauty, leaving their mark on her heart.The fluttering butterfly captured every eye in the hall.Gradually, it seemed to tire, drifting slowly downward. It flitted past countless heads to a chorus of disappointed sighs, and at last, it floated down to rest before one figure.Every gaze in the crowd snapped toward that person. When they saw who it was, they all froze in surprise, and a low murmur of astonishment rippled through the throng.For the figure was none other than Albert, Commander of the First Legion!Baron, too, was slightly stunned by the sight, his eyes flickering with a faint
Chapter 935
Albert smiled helplessly. He’d known stepping into this circle full of girls would lead to this—he had quite a high opinion of his own looks, after all.Isabelle was quick to defend her brother. Don’t even think about it. He’s already engaged, and I hear his fiancée is unrivaled in both beauty and talent, no less than Verity herself.She’d never actually met the fiancée Albert spoke of, but a little boasting never hurt anyone.Naturally, her girlfriends didn’t believe a word of it, bursting into laughter at what they thought was an obvious lie.Still, Albert, even though the First Courtyard Legion has made such rapid progress, you yourself are only at the Perfect Soul Realm. That makes you the weakest commander among the Twenty Legions. So you really need to step up your cultivation. The First Courtyard Legion is just an external force, not something you possess in your own right. Someday, if you’re ever without it, you’ll have to rely solely on yourself. The pretty young woman in the
Chapter 934
Albert was utterly perplexed. He was about to speak when a loud commotion erupted from the golden palace. His gaze darted toward the sound at once, and he saw a throng of figures walking slowly along the red carpet outside the palace gate. At the very front, surrounded like the moon by stars, a girl approached as if treading on moonbeams.She wore a pale green long dress, her exquisite and incomparably beautiful face like that of a moon goddess. Moonlight fell on her cheeks, gilding her snow-white skin that shimmered like cast glazed jade. At her delicate, faintly blushing earlobes hung a pair of earrings like blue gemstones, their light flickering softly with every gentle sway.Her eyes were pale blue, clear as a tranquil lake, brimming with a soft, rippling luster.A silk sash cinched her waist, accentuating its slender grace, like a willow branch swaying in the breeze.Wherever she stepped, the air grew faint with a moist, refreshing mist—she had stirred the water-attribute energie
