"Defeated the Black Rose family and captured Xiao?"
Zuoben’s eyes overflowed with joy as he looked at Haiying in disbelief.
The Black Rose family.
Besides the false goddess and the Abyssal Demons, they were the biggest obstacle to Zuoben’s ideal world.
In so sense, they might be the most troubleso existence.
Unlike the Abyssal Demons, the Black Rose family was composed of humans and other humanoid races.
After a century of operation, their influence had spread throughout the entire continent.
The difficulty of eradicating such a cancerous force was imaginable.
However, If they had already defeated the Black Rose family, and even captured Xiao Black Rose?! That would be a completely different situation.
Afterwards, as long as the Goddess infiltrated this Black Rose Duke’s consciousness, the entire Black Rose family would soon collapse from within.
"This is indeed good news."
Zuoben raised an eyebrow and said playfully.
"So where are Miss Asar and the captured Black Rose Duke now?"
"They are, I have already..."
However, Before Haiying could finish speaking, a gentle voice ca from above.
"Sorry, Pri Minister, I’m already here~"
Hearing this, Haiying was slightly stunned and glanced up at the sky in bewildernt.
Obviously, this Wing of the Church hadn’t expected the other party to follow so inappropriately. After all, this didn’t conform to the diplomatic etiquette between two major powers.
Similarly, gazing at the silver light slowly descending from the sky, Zuoben’s eyes narrowed slightly, with a trace of displeasure leaking from the depths of his eyes.
This one, Although she and her Sky City were indeed in a secret cooperative relationship, shouldn’t she at least observe the surface etiquette?
To just follow Haiying directly to a confidential area like this?
Sigh, never mind.
The plan has already reached this stage anyway, so whether the relationship is hidden or not is no longer important.
Seeing that she has accomplished such a great feat, I won’t quibble with her.
Thinking this, Zuoben shook his head in resignation and waved his hand casually, opening a crack in the barrier shield.
Subsequently,
Asar, dressed in blue and white armor, slowly passed through the barrier surrounded by white magic power, descending into the courtyard. After thoughtfully scanning ngxi and Haiying, Asar t Zuoben’s gaze.
Asar smiled slightly and greeted without being overly humble or arrogant:
"Good day, Pri Minister."
"Welco, Lady Asar."
Zuoben smiled slightly and gave a respectful response.
After a brief exchange of pleasantries, Zuoben’s gaze involuntarily turned to the black figure slung over Asar’s shoulder.
It was a man with short black hair, his face obscured by disheveled hair.
But without a doubt, the man was already severely injured, his body emanating a strong sll of blood, his clothes in tatters, and not a single patch of exposed skin was intact. There were various knife and sword wounds, or large areas of burns, the wounds so grueso as to be terrifying to behold.
The black-haired man was now on the brink of death, yet life force was still continuously leaking from his wounds, making the man very weak.
If not for the man’s strong physical constitution, he would have long since departed this world.
The mont he saw this man, Zuoben’s eyes narrowed and his face lit up with joy.
Although the man’s face was sowhat unrecognizable, Zuoben imdiately identified him.
After all, in the past few years, Zuoben had greeted this person many tis in diplomatic occasions.
He was none other than the current leader of the Black Rose family, the human follower of the Abyssal Demons, the greatest human traitor... Xiao Black Rose!
You who were once so imposing and extraordinary, how have you beco so miserable now?
I really couldn’t have imagined.
Is this what they call the cycle of karma? Heh, hehe~
Zuoben couldn’t help but let out a few mocking laughs. Then, this Pri Minister of the Church Nation turned his gaze, filled with surprise and admiration, towards Asar.
"It seems I really should look at you with new eyes, Lady Asar. To actually defeat Xiao Black Rose? How on earth did you manage that?"
Faced with Zuoben’s praise, Asar scratched the back of her head sowhat embarrassedly:
"Haha, to be honest, I’m a bit embarrassed, it was sowhat of an unfair victory."
"Oh? Why do you say that?"
"Well, I aid the Divine Cannon at Sabelius, and that Black Rose Duke had to withstand our Cannon to save his subordinates. Although he really did manage to change the trajectory of the main cannon beam with his extraordinary strength in the end, he was still affected by the cannon’s energy and was badly battered. After that, defeating him wasn’t much of a challenge."
As she spoke,
Asar’s face gradually filled with a smug expression. Obviously, defeating the Black Rose Duke who had manipulated her for so long in one fell swoop made Asar quite pleased internally.
"Ah~ Thinking back to his shocked and bewildered expression when he saw order the firing~ It was so damn satisfying~!"
"I see…"
Zuoben nodded slightly, seemingly accepting Asar’s explanation.
So that’s how it is, I was wondering how she defeated Xiao so quickly.
It seems she took advantage of his trust, catching him off guard. Plus, using the lives of Sabelius residents as a threat to severely injure Xiao.
Well, It’s quite despicable.
Completely unlike sothing a Chosen One would do.
But, I like it.
Smiling slightly, Zuoben gave Asar an approving look:
"You’ve done very well, Lady Asar. Being able to eliminate the cancer that is the Black Rose, your great contribution, your achievents, your na, will surely be recorded in history forever. People all over the world will be grateful to you."
"Thank you for your praise, Pri Minister."
Asar elegantly pressed her hand to her chest in response,
"So then, Pri Minister, how do you plan to deal with this greatest human traitor in the world?"
Saying this, Asar unceremoniously threw the black-haired man from her shoulder, violently smashing him into a large crater on the ground. The intense impact even caused the black-haired man to cough up several mouthfuls of blood involuntarily, and he began to gasp for breath as if clinging to life.
Looking extrely weak, For Xiao in his current state, even an ordinary soldier seed capable of easily strangling him to death.
"How to deal with him?"
Zuoben placed his hands behind his back and walked step by step towards Xiao with a playful expression, even unable to resist kicking Xiao’s head.
Regarding Xiao’s existence,
Zuoben undoubtedly despised him to the extre. This man had aided evil, helping the Abyssal Demons slaughter so many humans. Many of his comrades from the Church in the past were ultimately massacred by the Black Rose family under Xiao’s rule.
The corners of his mouth curling up slightly, Zuoben smiled coldly, a chilling and cruel smile suddenly appearing on his pale face, making his features increasingly eerie and ferocious.
"Of course, it’s to make him pay for the enormous cris he committed in the past."
Saying this, Zuoben slowly crouched down, grabbed the other’s hair, and forcibly pulled him up from the ground, seemingly wanting to personally witness the miserable state of this forr overlord.
Gazing at that bloodied and mangled face, Zuoben’s heart involuntarily overflowed with joyous emotions.
However, The joyful expression on Zuoben’s face didn’t seem to last long before freezing in place.
"Hm? Wait?!"
The mont his hand touched Xiao’s body, Zuoben suddenly noticed sothing unusual about this Black Rose Duke.
Indeed, After the battle with Asar, Xiao’s body was already covered in wounds and extrely weak, his life force like a candle in the wind, about to be extinguished at any mont.
But, Why?!
Is his soul power still so abundant?! No, this isn’t right!!
In an instant, a strong feeling of foreboding suddenly rushed into Zuoben’s heart, causing a bead of cold sweat to suddenly form on his forehead.
"It, it can’t be?!"
The next mont, As if to confirm Zuoben’s uneasy speculation, Xiao, who had just been on the brink of death, suddenly opened his eyes that should have been blinded, and stared intently at Zuoben’s face.
