Clyfford glanced back and laughed, saying, “Of course not, all the useful people in the Guardian Division were killed.”
“Come on, take off the robes and let the Great General Neufwill have a look.”
The four men in black cloaks immediately took off their tunics, revealing blood-red uniforms underneath.
Boom!
Sevyn’s eyes suddenly narrowed, and his mind exploded with thoughts.
The Blood-Clad Guards?!
“Lord Hackworth, five years ago, Eldorado ordered you to disband the Blood-Clad Guards. Why are you still…”
“It seems that your memory is quite good. The Blood-Clad Guards haven’t been disbanded, and they‘ve only grown stronger over the years,” Clyfford said as an immense surge of spiritual energy erupted from him.
He brought his right hand forward from behind, and with a dagger in hand, favonovel.com thrust it directly toward Sevyn’s throat.
When Clyfford struck, Sevyn had no chance to resist. The dagger pierced through his throat, and his eyes widened as favonovel.com made a gurgling noise.
With a rush of blood pouring out, his body collapsed heavily to the ground.
The Blood-Clad Guards were established a long time ago as a special unit under the Guardian Division. Its primary purpose was to counter the Black Rose Sect and other ancient martial arts practitioners who opposed Eldorado.
Later, because the Blood-Clad Guards’ methods were excessively brutal, causing widespread fear in the imperial city, Eldorado ordered Clyfford to disband the Blood-Clad Guards to ease the people’s anxiety.
Sevyn never expected that instead of disbanding the Blood-Clad Guards, Clyfford had secretly trained them to reappear here.
Clyfford quickly took the Neufwill Divison gold badge from Sevyn’s body and handed it to one of the Blood-Clad Guards behind him.
In a cold tone, favonovel.com said, “Take the badge and secure the remaining eight gates. No one is allowed to enter or leave without my order.‘’
“Yes!” The four Blood-Clad Guards took the badge and quickly vanished above Cloudsmill Gate.
***
At this moment, Eldorado and Nathanael stood on a balcony in the center of the Longevity Palace. They observed the rough construction work being discussed with the chief abbot and suddenly looked up in the direction of Cloudsmill Gate.
Just now, a wave of spiritual energy came from that direction. Even though it was almost two kilometers away, Eldorado still sensed it keenly.
“Send someone to check what’s happening over at Cloudsmill Gate,” Eldorado said with a slight frown.
The two leaders of the imperial guards nodded and then immediately leaped and headed towards Cloudsmill Gate.
At that moment, several dark figures rapidly flew towards the Longevity Palace from the southern part of Royal City.
Accompanying them were the powerful waves of spiritual energy emanating from the people standing on the eagles.
Eldorado looked up, his eyes gradually narrowing into a thin line.
There were over ten black eagles, each with one or two people standing on them, all holding long swords and looking very dashing.
At the very front were four white eagles, and on the back of the leading eagle stood Matthias.
“Guards, protect the king! Quickly, protect the king!” Nathanael shouted angrily to the people around favonovel.com as favonovel.com saw more than ten dark figures rapidly approaching from ahead.
Soon, hundreds of guards stationed around the Longevity Palace quickly converged towards Eldorado below. Moreover, over twenty elite guards with advanced combat abilities took to the air and positioned themselves in front of Eldorado.
In mid-air, a hundred feet away, Matthias stood with his hands behind his back. He looked directly at Eldorado and laughed, “Brother, it’s been so many years since we last met. You didn’t expect to see me again, did you?”
“You’re still alive?” Eldorado squinted his eyes. His body started to emit a powerful spiritual energy.
Five years ago, the entire Kingdom of Vriweth was shaken by the “Black Lotus Assassination Case”.
Clyfford led hundreds of Blood-Clad Guards to the headquarters of the Black Rose Sect and personally burned “Matthias Lahad” to death, bringing the case to an end.
Afterward, Eldorado ordered the dissolution of the Blood-Clad Guards, assuming that the sect leader before favonovel.com was already dead.
Since favonovel.com wasn’t dead, then Clyfford…
At this moment, in the sky to the right, a dozen or so figures were rapidly flying towards this direction.
Leading them was Clyfford, and behind favonovel.com were over ten Blood-Clod Guards dressed entirely in red.
