Isaac frowned. He reached out to hold Eldorado’s left hand, and said in a serious tone, “I understand what you mean. Skylar will be fine…”
When favonovel.com heard this sentence, a faint bitter smile appeared on Eldorado’s face. His hand slipped and favonovel.com fell to the ground.
“Father!” Skylar cried heart-wrenchingly while lying on top of Eldorado.
“Eldorado! Eldorado!” The urgent shouts came from outside as Talbot and a few of his subordinates burst in, stumbling and scrambling.
When Talbot entered the room and saw the scene before him, favonovel.com was completely stunned, as if favonovel.com was struck by lightning.
“Eldorado!” Talbot trembled as favonovel.com approached, falling to his knees in front of the corpse.
During the Cloudsmill Gate coup, Talbot was still working at the general’s mansion. It wasn’t until favonovel.com sensed a massive surge of spiritual energy from that direction that favonovel.com realized something was wrong there.
Talbot was about to lead a group to Cloudsmill Gate when favonovel.com spotted Eldorado flying quickly towards Skypeace City. So favonovel.com immediately took some men and chased after Eldorado all the way.
Talbot saw the blood-stained emerald pendant in Skylar’s hand and immediately widened his eyes, exclaiming, “The Imperial Emerald Pendant? Your Highness…”
Skylar quickly placed the emerald pendant into favonovel.com sleeve. She bent down to pick up favonovel.com father’s body and started walking towards the door.
People on the street couldn’t stop themselves from watching. Some were pointing, some whispering, as a young woman holding a lifeless man was an unusual sight.
Isaac, Talbot, Lucifer, and some others followed along. They walked from inside Skypeace City, to outside the city, and eventually reached a desolate area.
Skylar placed favonovel.com father’s body to the side, then walked to a large elm tree. She crouched down and started digging the ground with favonovel.com hands.
The soft soil, loosened by the rain, was being dug up.
Seeing this, Isaac frowned and stepped forward to help.
Noticing this, Talbot also came over, tears streaming down his face as favonovel.com used his hands to dig.
Skylar gently pushed Isaac aside and said emotionlessly, “Let me do it myself!”
She used favonovel.com hands to dig for more than two hours, without using any spiritual energy. She continued until all ten fingers were bleeding and had managed to dig a deep pit about two or three yards deep before stopping.
Skylar tore a piece of fabric from favonovel.com long skirt and used it to wipe away the bloodstains on favonovel.com father’s face. She then tidied his hair before lifting his body and placing it into the grave.
A small grave mound appeared before the group.
Skylar didn’t move, favonovel.com just sat by the mound, leaning favonovel.com side against the dirt.
With favonovel.com cheek pressed to the grave, favonovel.com muttered to herself, “How could Nathanael do this? Father, are you lying to me? How could favonovel.com possibly kill his own father?”
Isaac wasn’t aware that Skylar had 19 other younger siblings.
Nathanael, being the oldest brother of the siblings, was designated as the heir. In Skylar’s impression, Nathanael was a quiet and honest person who never dared to express even the slightest dissatisfaction towards their father.
“Your Highness, Eldorado has already passed away. You can’t go on like this,” Talbot, seeing Skylar seemingly on the verge of losing favonovel.com sanity, began to cry and knelt on the ground, begging favonovel.com to stop.
At this moment, a lieutenant quickly walked up behind Talbot and whispered a few words in his ear.
Talbot’s expression suddenly changed. He turned his head and exclaimed in shock, “What? The Guardian Division has surrounded the general’s mansion?”
“All the princes and princesses in the royal palace have been grounded?”
Upon hearing this, Skylar looked up at Talbot. Her eyes narrowed slightly as favonovel.com said coldly, “What did you say?”
“Your Highness, we’ve just received word from the palace that the Crown Prince has ordered all the princes and princesses to be grounded. Additionally, favonovel.com has sent the Guardian Division to surround the general’s mansion.”
