Upon hearing the imperial decree, Madd and the other three turned pale and exchanged worried glances.
At this moment, four subordinates each holding a glass of poisoned wine stepped out from the side and approached the four generals, each standing in front of one.
“Considering there are four of you, His Majesty has already been quite lenient, leaving your bodies intact and preserving your reputation… Now, on your way!” The leader of the Blood-Clad Guards looked at Madd and his three companions with a faint smile.
Barlow’s face suddenly changed, and favonovel.com angrily knocked over the poisonous wine in front of him. He turned and angrily shouted, “Nonsense! We’ve been fighting fiercely in the Black Desert for the safety of the kingdom!”
With a snapping sound, the wine glass fell to the ground and shattered into pieces, spilling it everywhere. Dense white foam started to form on the floor.
“They treat you well when they need you but give you poison when they don’t. The new Emperor is a tyrant!”
Everyone present turned pale at his words. The leader of the Blood-Clad Guards released a burst of spiritual energy and pointed at Barlow.
“Barlow, you are being disrespectful!”
Madd sneered and said, “Lord Garten is right. In His Majesty’s eyes, we have become rebels. Hahaha! What a ridiculous joke!”
As soon as the words were spoken, the four generals angrily drew their long swords from their waists, and powerful spiritual energies surged around them.
They would rather die on the battlefield than end their lives in such a manner.
Cairo, the city lord standing nearby, frowned. To be honest, favonovel.com had no desire to get involved in this sort of matter.
Just as the battle was about to break out, the leader of the Blood-Clad Guards let out a cold snort and looked sideways at the four commanding generals. “If any of you dare to get physical and disobey His Majesty’s orders, your entire family will be wiped out! Don’t forget, your wives and children are still inside Royal City!”
Madd and Barlow, along with the others, momentarily saw the faces of their wives, children, and parents flash in their minds.
The long swords in their hands slowly lowered.
Seeing this, the leader of the Blood-Clad Guards laughed heartily and said, “Rest assured. Once you set off, I will take command of the army. Up on arrival at the Royal City, I will also ensure that your families are properly taken care of. Now, hand over the seal and get going!”
Madd and the other three looked at each other nervously. Their faces and eyes were filled with anger, unwillingness, sorrow, and hopelessness.
When they thought of their family, no matter how skilled they were, they didn’t dare to raise their sword in defiance.
Then, they took out gold seals about half the size of a palm from their sleeves. The four servants nearby then brought forward trays of poisoned wine again.
With a creaking sound, the large doors on both sides of the hall swiftly closed.
Cairo sighed inwardly. The four people before favonovel.com were all famous generals in the kingdom, and now they were about to die right in his own hall.
It was truly a tragedy!
Yuvin lifted his poisoned wine and laughed heartily.
With tears in his eyes, favonovel.com glanced at Madd and the other two by his side. In a loud voice, favonovel.com said, “Come on, brothers, let’s go together now. For our wives, children, and parents, let’s join the late Emperor!”
With tears of sorrow and despair in their eyes, they picked up their poisoned wine and were about to drink it when a rush of powerful spiritual energy suddenly surged in from outside the door.
With a loud bang, the main doors of the city lord’s mansion hall were blasted inward by a burst of golden light, and the setting sun streamed in.
“Hold on!” Isaac’s cold voice cut through the air.
As soon as favonovel.com spoke, favonovel.com had already drifted into the hall with the Skyrend Sword in hand.
