Chapter 4219
They were running away?
The sight before Lord Kenny filled him with sinister coldness.
Gonggong had utterly humiliated him. How could he let her escape the Hazel Hen Gate
with her soldiers just like that?
’Heed my order!"
As he gritted his teeth through the pain, Lord Kenny soared into the air and called out,
"Attack the Hazel Hen Gate at once and take down every soldier. No exceptions."
Lord Kenny snuck a glance at Yvette as he spoke. He fought to hold back the indignance
and frustration in his heart.
What happened had been pretty embarrassing, but what mattered the most was taking
down the Hazel Hen Gate as quickly as possible.
"Attack!"
As the word rang through the air, the 300,000 soldiers rushed toward the Hazel Hen Gate
at once.
Meanwhile, at the New World palace.
There was a special tower in the northwest of the palace, known as the Prayer Tower. The
tower's primary tones were red and black, and it stood out among the other gold and red
towers.
The Prayer Tower was where the reigning emperor prayed to the gods. It was usually
pretty deserted but was lined with royal soldiers at that moment. On top of that, many of
the soldiers were also patrolling the surroundings.
Just then, a figure sat in the Prayer Tower.
He was clad in a long white robe, and his features were handsome and chiseled.
It was Skylar.
Skylar sat cross-legged with his eyes closed as a red fog rose from above his head.
There were lit white candles around him. His shadow flickered against their glow, making
for a rather sinister sight.
A few dead bodies were in front of him. The bodies were rather petite in size, clearly
belonging to a few children. Their lifeless faces were terrifyingly ashen, implying that they
had died a positively agonizing death.
Indeed, Skylar was cultivating an ultimate fiend skill known as the Devil Nightmare.
Archfiend Antigonus had been extremely impressed with Skylar when he released him
from the Ghost World and helped him build a tangible body, and had thus passed on many
ultimate fiend skills to him. The Devil Nightmare was one of them.
Acquiring the Devil Nightmare was a ruthless process-it was done by absorbing children's
spirits. One wrong move would result in a state of extreme tragedy.
However, if one were to succeed, their skill would rise to a whole new realm.
Archfiend Antigonus had warned Skylar when he passed the skill to him that he would not
attempt to cultivate the Devil Nightmare if he was not in an ultimate realm. That was
because very few people had succeeded in acquiring it in the fiend race.
Skylar had taken Archfiend Antigonus's words to heart.
However, about a month ago, upon the great war in the Five Poison Sect, Archfiend
Antigonus had left for the Godly Region, and there had been no news from him. Following
that, Skylar had been captured by Master Magaera, and he nearly lost his spirit.
Lord Kenny had rescued Skylar after that. When he got better, Skylar planned to continue
waiting for news from Archfiend Antigonus. Yet a whole month had passed, and he had still

not heard anything.
That filled Skylar with great panic. After he thought about it, he decided to cultivate the
Devil Nightmare.
Skylar had thought it through. If he improved his skill, he would be able to fend for himself
if he had to come up against powerful opponents like Master Magaera, even if Archfiend
Antigonus was not around.
Skylar made Lord Kenny grant him the Prayer Tower to use as his cultivation spot when he
made that decision.
That was also why Skylar had not followed Lord Kenny in his attack on the North Moana
Continent and blackmailed Yvette into helping him instead.
Just then, Skylar finished absorbing the last child's spirit. He opened his eyes slowly,
utterly devoid of emotion.
"Rory."
Skylar opened his mouth and called out lightly.
As soon as his words rang through the air, a head guard rushed into the room. "Yes, Your
Honor?"
Rory was one of the head guards in the palace, specially assigned by Lord Kenny to take
care of Skylar's needs in his absence.
Skylar cast a glance at Rory and pointed to the bodies before him. "Are these all the
children you have for today?"
