…

In the City Lord Residence, City Lord Lein was meditating when he suddenly opened his eyes as if he had sensed something. A hint of suspicion flashed past his eyes, and then he came directly to the window. With a flash of his silhouette, he had already flown out and was floating in mid-air. Magical power flashed in his eyes as he searched carefully. Then, his pupils suddenly constricted, and he locked onto a direction, flying rapidly.

City Lord Lein stopped a figure who was also floating in the air, only to see that this person was emitting a cold aura which enveloped his entire body. His appearance was blurry and could not be seen clearly, but he was definitely a Great Archmage.

City Lord Lein glared at him and said, “Who are you? Why have you come to Winterfrost so late at night?”

“Move aside. If you don’t want to die, don’t meddle in my affairs!” The other party’s cold voice sounded, exceptionally overbearing. This made City Lord Lein furious. This was his territory. The other party had come to his territory, yet not only had he not greeted him, he was even so overbearing. He had to teach the other party a lesson. However, soon after, his anger vanished completely and was replaced with incomparable fear. The other party had emitted a powerful pressure, pressing down on him like a mountain. It disturbed his aura, and he almost lost his ability to remain in the air and fell. Fortunately, he had already been a Great Archmage for some years, so he did not fall. Otherwise, he would have lost a lot of face. However, he quickly bowed respectfully to the other party and said, “I’m sorry for offending you. Please calm down.”

After City Lord Lein had finished speaking, he sensed the suppression had been withdrawn. Only then did he heave a sigh of relief. He had only felt such a powerful suppression once in the Sky Blue Magic Academy, and that Lord was already at the peak of the Great Archmage realm. He had not expected the person in front of him to be able to emit such a powerful suppression. He was definitely at the peak of the Great Archmage realm. This was definitely not someone he could deal with. If he had provoked the other party, the other party might just kill him directly, and he would not have any chance to resist.

“Sire, I am…”

“Move aside, I have something to do. I can’t be bothered to talk nonsense with you.” City Lord Lein had wanted to introduce himself and then build a relationship with this powerful senior in front of him. Perhaps, he could even obtain some benefits and pointers. However, the other party subsequently let out a cold shout. Soon after, City Lord Lein felt a strong force send him flying. Even though he was already a level-3 Great Archmage, he was still sent flying several kilometers away. Only then did he manage to dissipate the strong force and barely remain in mid-air. At this moment, as the cold wind blew in the air, he felt his entire body turn cold. Only then did he realize that his entire body had been drenched in cold sweat.

“So… so powerful!” City Lord Lein said with lingering fear. Then, he looked toward the place where that senior had been just now, but there was no one there anymore. That senior had also disappeared without a trace.

Fortunately, the other party did not have any ill intentions toward me. Otherwise, I would have been beaten to death by him just now.

City Lord Lein thought with lingering fear. Then, he returned to the City Lord Residence. After all, the other party was so powerful. Even if he really wanted to do something, it would not be something he could deal with. It was better not to be a busybody.

The powerful person who had frightened City Lord Lein badly was naturally Romo. The main reason why he had done this was because the Spirit Demon Talisman had limited effective time. Romo still had other things to do and did not have the time to talk to the City Lord. Hence, he sent the other party flying and went about his business.

…

At the same time, in a small village outside Winterfrost, there was a basement under an ordinary house. The basement was much larger than the house above. The area below was dark and humid. It did not seem like a place for living humans to live. However, under the dim light, there was really a person.

It could be seen that this person’s eyes were ruthless, and his lips were bluish-black. Dense centipede-like runes were drawn all over his body, making him look very scary. Beside him, there were several real centipedes crawling around his body. The largest centipede was even as long as his arm. Its carapace was glowing with a metallic luster. This centipede was actually an extremely poisonous creature, but to him, it was his companion.

At this moment, this person was constantly circulating his magical power. A look of pain appeared on his face, and then he vomited a mouthful of blood, causing his expression to become even uglier. He grabbed a centipede, not concerned at all that the centipede was still alive and struggling with all its might, and stuffed it directly into his mouth. Crunching sounds could be heard as he chewed, and he actually swallowed a live centipede, which was 20 centimeters long. However, after he had swallowed the centipede, he looked a little better. It seemed that the centipede was a great tonic and could relieve the pain in his body.

“Damn it, what kind of attack was that golden light? Not only did it kill my pet, it even had a backlash on my body, injuring me seriously. If it weren’t for my strong ability to survive, I would have been killed by the backlash from that golden light!”

He recalled the golden light attack earlier in the day and felt a lingering fear. That’s right, he was the person who had attacked Sonia and Arthur earlier in the day.

This person was an assassin. His name, or rather, his code name, was Centipede. He was a person nurtured by an assassin organization. The cultivation technique he cultivated was also a very vicious kind. He had lived with centipedes since he was young and had even eaten centipedes often. This enabled him not only to have the venoms of the centipedes, but also to be unafraid of them. He was even able to command the centipedes to attack. It was indeed a very vicious cultivation technique.

When he tried to assassinate Arthur, he was attacked by the Ancestral Protection Talisman in Arthur’s body. The effect of the item produced by the System was not so simple. Not only did it kill the centipede he had sent out, there was even a backlash. This was also the reason why he fled immediately.

As for the injury caused by the backlash, he had been hiding here to recuperate for most of the day. He had just felt a little better. However, he was still very afraid.

Looking at the large mouthful of smelly black blood he had spat out, he became more indignant and said, “Damn it, it’s all that kid from the Grimm family. He has actually concealed the other party’s strength. When I get back, I must ask him for more money. Otherwise, I definitely won’t let him off,” he said viciously. He had thought that killing a child would be a very simple task, but who knew that he would fail miserably in the easy task and nearly lose his life. How could he not be angry?

At this moment, the sky had already turned dark. It was just nice to go and ask that kid for an explanation. However, just as he was about to stand up, all the hair on his body suddenly stood up. The centipedes around him also seemed to have suffered a great shock. All of them had their heads facing a spot in the dark, emitting some threatening sounds..
