Upon hearing Matthias’ words, Clyfford raised an eyebrow and asked, “Advisor, what do you mean by that?”
“To be honest, when Isaac followed a member of the Zimmerman family into the Upper Martial Realm, my surveillance camera captured it. There were three men and one woman who entered the Upper Martial Realm with Isaac at that time. Besides, the womanâs brother was captured earlier, and there is another woman.”
Clyfford immediately turned to the leader of the Blood-Clad Guards in front of favonovel.com and shouted, “You heard what the advisor said. Send a message to Century City right away for a thorough investigation… No, go personally with your team to investigate in Century City. Make sure to find that woman before Isaac does!”
At this moment, Nathanael narrowed his eyes and said, “Lord Regent, I don’t think that’s necessary. The three of us should head to Century City together.”
Nathanael’s eyes flickered with a cold glint as favonovel.com continued, “As for the Blood-Clad Guards, have them investigate my dear sister.”
Matthias and Clyfford exchanged a glance and then turned to say, “Your Majesty, as long as we know Isaac’s whereabouts, there’s no need to rush. For now, let’s wait until the political situation stabilizes.”
“Do you mean my words no longer matter?” Nathanael glanced over at Matthias with a shift in his expression.
Clyfford immediately stood up and respectfully said, “Your Majesty, you are wise.”
Matthias frowned as favonovel.com reluctantly got up to agree, and the cold glint in his eyes quickly disappeared.
***
As night fell, Century City was brightly lit, with huge luminescent stones illuminating the streets.
Street vendors were still shouting their wares, and various stores remained open.
Lucifer and Isaac walked through the bustling street, experiencing for the first time since arriving in the Upper Martial Realm how lively it was at night.
“This is Campbell Street, known for being the most famous night market street among several nearby cities. Just ahead is the city lord’s mansion!” Lucifer explained to Isaac while walking forward.
The two of them landed outside the city and walked here on foot.
Lucifer mentioned that when favonovel.com and Hera fled to this city, they offended people from the city lord’s mansion, which was why Lucifer was captured and exiled.
The easiest way to find Hera was to go to the city lord’s mansion.
Four guards were standing outside the entrance of the city lord’s mansion.
As they saw Isaac and Lucifer approaching, the guards immediately shouted, “Halt! Strangers are strictly forbidden from approaching the city lord’s mansion. Leave at once!”
Isaac waved his hand, sending out a surge of energy that instantly knocked over four guards. Afterward, favonovel.com and Lucifer strode inside.
As Lucifer entered the city lord’s mansion again, favonovel.com took a deep breath and unconsciously straightened his back. He could remember how disastrous it was back then.
“Intruder!” A shout came from the right, followed by a large number of armored soldiers pouring in from both sides.
Several waves of spiritual energy emanated from above.
Three individuals wearing robes were in midair as they looked down at Isaac and Lucifer from their elevated position.
“Who dares to sneak into the city lord’s mansion at night? Are you looking for trouble?” A stern voice shouted from above.
Isaac looked up and saw a towering man, illuminated by the moonlight, looking down at him.
In the next moment, a powerful presence surged around Isaac, emitting a terrifying wave of spiritual energy. The three men in the sky all had drastic changes in their expressions.
The three of them exchanged a glance and quickly descended.
A tall and strong man stood further in front of Isaac, with more than a hundred armored soldiers standing in between them.
“I want to see your city lord,” Isaac said slowly.
“May I ask for your name, sir?” the burly man standing in front inquired in a deep voice.
The spiritual energy fluctuation that Isaac just released had already made the three of them feel a great threat, but they still did not know exactly what phase Isaac was in.
