At this moment, the sword in Nathanael’s hand, now enveloped in spiritual energy, flew out of his grasp and shot toward Skylar’s abdomen.
The long sword plunged into Skylar’s lower right abdomen, and intense pain spread throughout favonovel.com body.
Skylar looked up at the sky as favonovel.com body fell straight downward. She gazed at the sky, with the setting sun burning like fire.
In favonovel.com mind, favonovel.com father’s smiling face appeared. She closed favonovel.com eyes, and a smile appeared at the corners of favonovel.com mouth as tears rolled down favonovel.com cheeks. She murmured, “Father, I will be with you soon…”
There were no unexpected events, 20 city lords were killed on the spot, and the remaining 40 were all captured alive.
Before Skylar hit the ground, Clyfford caught favonovel.com and then tied favonovel.com up with a spiritual energy-suppressing rope.
More than half of the over one hundred Blood-Clad Guards were killed or wounded, but this outcome made the remaining 40,000 soldiers too afraid to move.
Nathanael and Clyfford stood together on top of the Cloudsmill Gate, and they looked down from above with victorious smiles on their faces.
Beneath them, Skylar and dozens of others from the Rebellion Hall were tied up with spiritual energy-suppressing rope and kneeling on the ground.
“Tie all these rebels up and display them for three days. After three days, flay them alive to demonstrate the power of the Emperor!” Nathanael shouted loudly with a wave of his hand.
The crowd below shouted in unison, “Your Majesty, you are wise!”
Later, Skylar and the remaining injured city lords were tied up with spiritual energy-suppressing ropes by the Blood-Clad Guards and hung above the city gates.
After the lifting of martial law in Royal City, people started coming out of their homes.
Soon, some of the townsfolk noticed Skylar and favonovel.com companions hanging outside Cloudsmill Gate. A crowd quickly gathered, pointing and discussing among themselves.
Matthias’ eyes gleamed with a sharp light as favonovel.com turned to Nathanael and said in a deep voice, “Your Majesty, I believe we should execute this group of rebels as soon as possible.”
“Oh? Why is that?” Nathanael asked with a hint of a smile as favonovel.com glanced at Matthias.
“I have a feeling… Isaac isn‘t dead.”
Hearing this, Nathanael burst out laughing. “Not dead? Isaac isn’t dead? Well, I couldn’t be happier that he’s still alive! If Isaac dares to step into Royal City again, I’ll personally cut off his head!”
“You are overthinking. Last time, the three of us easily injured Isaac severely. Even though favonovel.com has a good relationship with Skylar, if favonovel.com really causes trouble, he’ll just be courting death!” Clyfford said with a cold smile on his face.
At this moment, a leader of the Blood-Clad Guards quickly approached from behind. Kneeling on one knee, favonovel.com said, “Your Majesty, my lords, we have just received news from Heavenly Eagle City! It is said that several experts were spotted flying over Heavenly Eagle City, suspected to be Talbot and those four rebellious generals!”
“Talbot, Madd, and the others?” Clyfford immediately glanced sideways at his subordinate.
Clyfford looked toward Eldorado with a frown and said, “These rebels had fled to the Kingdom of Northwing before, and now they dare to sneak back south.”
“After passing through Heavenly Eagle City, they will be heading towards Royal City… Are they here to rescue Skylar?” Clyfford squinted his eyes slightly.
Nathanael scoffed and said, “I didn’t go looking for them, but they came right to my doorstep. So let them come!”
“It’s Isaac,” Matthias said in a low voice.
“Your Majesty, starting now, we need to lock down the entire city. I have a feeling this situation is far from simple!”
Upon hearing Matthias’ words, Clyfford and Eldorado both frowned.
“Alright, we’ll follow the advisor’s plan. Tonight, after dark, we’ll lift the citywide curfew. Order the city lord of Skypeace City to stay on high alert, and as soon as Isaac’s whereabouts are discovered, report immediately,” Nathanael said with a sinister look in his eyes.
