LORD CHESTER COMES BACK

As Jun stood firmly on the cliff by the sea, Margaret’s figure appeared behind him.

However, Jun suddenly noticed that Margaret’s aura seemed extremely unstable.

Jun turned his head and glanced at Margaret.

He saw her cheeks were flushed, and faint veins were bulging on her temples, showing signs of pain.

Jun asked, “What’s wrong?”

Margaret tried to calm her turbulent energy and trembled as she spoke.

“Earlier at the submarine canteen, I ate a plate of fried larvae. It seemed to be a dish of White Snake. Now I feel my blood surging intensely, as if I’m on the verge of a breakthrough! My body is swelling badly!”

Jun finally understood, but before he could reach out to touch Margaret’s brow and console her, Margaret suddenly turned around and leaped off the cliff.

Splash!

She fell into the deep sea.

As the cold seawater surged around her, Margaret felt slightly better.

But Jun, at this moment, showed a hint of impatience on his face. Bringing a woman to the Island of the Five Emperors was indeed troublesome.

Immediately, Jun’s gaze fell upon the gate of White Emperor City once again.

The three characters of White Emperor City!

They seemed to have been written with sword energy, faintly exuding a strong killing intent!

His gaze shifted downward.

Below the gate, it seemed that someone was building a bonfire!

However, due to the distance and the darkness of the night, Jun couldn’t see the specific appearance of those people.

Jun shifted his gaze elsewhere.

He saw a dock outside the gate of White Emperor City, with a huge wooden ship about ten stories high floating on the water.

However, the ship had no lights.

Jun then turned his gaze towards the island’s outskirts and could only see a distance of about ten nautical miles beyond the island.

Ten nautical miles away, there was a thick fog shrouding the area!

Amidst that fog, two crimson lights flickered!

Jun suspected that there should be some kind of island guardian Feng Shui formation around the Island of the Five Emperors; otherwise, this place wouldn’t be isolated from the outside world.

This was somewhat similar to the Feng Shui Tianpan stone beneath the Dragon-Trapping Well on Mount Emei!

As Jun pondered this, a splashing sound came from below the cliff.

The next moment, Margaret once again stood behind Jun, her face flushed.

“It’s still not working,” she said.

Jun frowned. “What’s not working?”

Margaret looked embarrassed. “I can’t suppress the surging true energy within me with my own strength!”

Jun extended his hand and pointed at Margaret’s brow.

In an instant, Margaret felt a warm stream of energy flowing from the depths of her brow to the soles of her feet.

Jun said calmly, “Remember the path of energy flow. This is the method of troops’ qi circulation.”

Margaret widened her eyes but quickly closed them again, carefully sensing the flow of energy within her.

After about five minutes, Jun withdrew his hand.

Margaret immediately knelt on one knee.

“Thank you, Dragon Lord, for passing down…”

But before Margaret could finish speaking, Jun interrupted coldly.

“Enough with the nonsense!”

Margaret stood up reluctantly, but after standing, she still looked puzzled and said, “Have I… broken through?”

Jun said calmly, “Just the eighth realm of the Ethereal Core, nothing special.”

Margaret was speechless.

Jun looked her up and down, then said indifferently, “Hurry up and dry the water on your body. You look ridiculous like this!”

Margaret lowered her head and realized that her white clothes were almost transparent.

However, Jun had already turned around and walked towards the cliff. This made Margaret feel frustrated. Did she not even have the qualification to be noticed by Jun? Quickly, Margaret used her true qi to steam dry her clothes and quickly caught up.

But as she walked behind Jun, Margaret exclaimed in surprise, “Dragon Lord, there are people over there at the city gate!”

Jun had a stern face and replied, “I saw it.”

Margaret looked at Jun’s back with a pitiful expression and didn’t bother to say anything more.

Jun asked, “Have you been inside this White Emperor City?”

Margaret immediately answered, “Yes.”

Jun glanced at the long swords on the city walls and asked another question, “What’s the deal with these swords on the city walls?”

Margaret sighed, “They are the swords of the defeated. In that battle back then, only Leona and I managed to break into White Emperor City. Everyone else died outside.”

Jun asked again, “Have you noticed anything unusual about the aura on this island?”

Margaret secretly activated her troops and looked serious as she said, “The spiritual energy here is even purer than that of Mount Emei.”

“If I find a place to cultivate here for a year or so, I will definitely be able to break through the Tenth Realm of the Ethereal Core!”

Jun didn’t say anything more, but instead looked towards the center of the Island of the Five Emperors.

His expression couldn’t help but become complicated.

Because he noticed that the aura in the center of the Island of the Five Emperors was even purer than the aura here in White Emperor City.

It was even more concentrated than the aura in the old well of Rofu Lane in Imperial City.

In that case…

There must be martial arts experts on this island as numerous as the hairs on an ox!

He didn’t know at what level the five envoys who died on Mount Emei were on this island.

If there were a large number of experts like Metalwalker and Firewalker…

Then this trip would truly be extremely dangerous!

Fortunately, his Pure Yang True Skill within his body had already been fully unsealed with the help of Metalwalker and the others.

Otherwise, he might really die on this island!

Margaret, who was following behind, saw Jun remain silent and didn’t dare to say much either.

Even if she didn’t know what Jun was going to do next, she obediently followed behind him.

Meanwhile…

The city gate of White Emperor City suddenly opened a crack from the inside.

In the next moment, a woman of mixed blood, dressed in a white gown, walked out from inside the city.

This woman of mixed blood was none other than Luza, who appeared at the top of Mount Emei a day ago.

She was also the daughter of Charles, the leader of Eastern Orthodoxy.

Although she was a saint of Eastern Orthodoxy, she secretly served as the lord of White Emperor City and was planted as a spy from Western Eastern Orthodoxy outside the island.

A day ago.

Jun killed all the male members of Eastern Orthodoxy at the top of Mount Emei, leaving only Luza alive.

Naturally, it wasn’t because of any sympathy or favoritism.

It was because… her aura was fundamentally different from that of Charles and the others!

The cultivation technique she practiced…

Seemed to be an ancient martial art derived from the Eastern Martial World!

Therefore, at that time, Jun spared her life in order to draw out the forces behind her.

Now it seems…

His decision back then was correct.

By the bonfire in front of the city gate, Margaret also saw Luza’s figure and couldn’t help but exclaim reflexively, “The saint of Eastern Orthodoxy? How did she appear on the Island of the Five Emperors?”
