Gu Bo raised his head and looked at the bright moon in the sky. The cold moonlight was reflected in his purple-red eyes.

……

next second.

Gu Bo's mind moved, and the pair of huge demon wings behind him flapped violently, stirring up a gust of wind.

The figure instantly turned into a black stream of light, disappeared into the night sky, and flew towards the imperial capital.

……

at the same time.

Imperial capital, royal palace.

The magnificent palace was brightly lit, as if it were daytime.

Esdeath is conferring with Minister Ernest and the young Emperor.

Suddenly I felt a powerful aura approaching rapidly.

"what happened?!"

Esdeath stood up suddenly, a hint of solemnity flashing in her ice-blue eyes.

He didn't care about Minister Ernest and the emperor beside him.

Esdeath turned around and left.

Minister Ernest and the young emperor were shocked by Esdeath's actions.

The two looked at each other, not knowing what had happened.

"General Esdeath?!"

The young emperor called out tentatively, but received no response.

"Your Majesty, this..."

Minister Ernest was also confused at the moment. He didn't know what had happened that could make Esdeath, who was always calm and composed, suddenly lose her composure.

……

Just when Minister Ernest and the Emperor were puzzled.

Esdeath made several leaps.

We arrived at the highest point of the palace - the top of a watchtower that soared into the clouds.

The cold night wind blew Esdeath's silver-blue hair.

It perfectly outlines her exquisite curves.

Esdeath's ice-blue eyes were like burning ice flames, tightly locked on the black spot at the end of the sky, and her heart was beating in her chest like a drum.

Closer. 977 is even closer!

soon.

Esdeath spotted a black dot at the edge of the sky, flying towards the imperial capital at an astonishing speed.

As the black spot got closer, Esdeath finally saw its true face.

It was a pair of enormous black wings, like a demonic shadow covering the sky and the sun, rapidly approaching towards the imperial capital with a suffocating sense of oppression!

The owner of the wings was a figure wearing a black robe.

"This kind of breath is..."

Esdeste frowned slightly, a look of doubt appearing on her pretty face.

She could feel a powerful and familiar aura rapidly approaching her direction.

"Could it be that……"

Esdeath seemed to have thought of something, and a faint blush appeared on her originally fair cheeks.

She quickly stood up, straightened her messy military uniform, walked quickly to the window, and looked into the distance with her beautiful eyes.

"Lord Gu Bo?!"

Esdeath exclaimed.

……

Although I don't know why Gu Bo came suddenly.

Esdeath still didn't dare to be negligent.

A few leaps.

Esdeath disappeared into the magnificent hall.

"Come here! Pass the order and gather the three beastmen and all the soldiers. Follow me to the square to welcome the distinguished guest!"

Esdeath's command resounded throughout the palace like thunder.

The well-trained soldiers immediately took action, and the sound of their uniform footsteps, like thunder, echoed in the silent night sky.

……

Soon, the square in front of the palace was brightly lit and crowded with people.

Soldiers in neat military uniforms, holding sharp weapons, were arranged in neat square formations, surrounding the entire square.

The three beastmen, Levi, Niu and Daidas, led their respective troops and stood at the front of the team, looking around vigilantly, not daring to relax at all.

The young emperor and Minister Ernest, surrounded by guards, came to the high platform in the center of the square.

"General Esdeath, what exactly is going on? Why mobilize such a large force?"

Minister Ernest looked at the scene before him, feeling slightly uneasy, and asked Esdeath beside him in a low voice.

However, Esdeath did not look away, as if she did not hear his question. Her eyes were always fixed on the night sky, as if she was waiting for someone to come.

"Minister Ernest, be patient, you will know the answer soon." Esdeath said calmly, but in her ice-blue eyes, there was a glint of excitement and anticipation that was hard to conceal.

Upon hearing this, Minister Ernest became even more confused, but seeing Esdeath's expression, he knew that now was not the time to ask further questions, so he had to suppress his doubts and wait patiently for the development of the situation.

……

Time passed by minute by minute.

The atmosphere in the square became more and more solemn as time went by.

The soldiers gripped their weapons tightly, their palms covered in sweat.

The young emperor nervously grabbed Minister Ernest's sleeve and looked around anxiously.

at last.

At this moment, a sharp sound suddenly came from the originally silent night sky.

Everyone looked up quickly.

I saw a black dot appear at the end of the sky.

The black dot was approaching them at an astonishing speed.

As the black spot got closer, everyone finally saw the other party's true face.

It turned out to be a pair of huge black wings!

"what is that?!"

"Oh my god, what kind of monster is that?!"

"Is it a dangerous species?!"

……

Seeing this scene, the soldiers were immediately shocked and cried out in surprise.

……

"Shut up, everyone!" Seeing this, Esdeath glanced at everyone coldly and shouted.

Although her voice was not loud, it seemed to carry some kind of magic, instantly suppressing the noise in the square.

The soldiers felt the cold murderous intent emanating from Esdeath, and dared not say anything more. They quickly shut their mouths, lowered their heads, looked at their noses, and looked at their hearts, not daring to make any more unusual movements.

"Three Beast Warriors!" Esdeath turned her head and looked at the three Beast Warriors standing at the front of the team. She ordered in a cold tone: "Keep a close eye on them. If they make any unusual movements, kill them without mercy!"

"Yes! General!"

Upon hearing this, Levi, Niu, and Daidas all looked stern and responded in unison.

Although they didn't know who the visitor was, they knew that since General Esdeath had mobilized such a large force, the other party's identity must be extraordinary.

Thinking of this, the three beastmen did not dare to delay at all and quickly gave orders to the soldiers to prepare for battle.

……

Accompanied by a deafening roar.

The pair of huge black wings finally arrived above the square.

The wind was howling so hard that no one could open their eyes.

But when the strong wind died down and everyone opened their eyes again, they were completely shocked by the scene before them!

I saw.

Under the huge pair of black wings, there was actually a slender figure standing.

He was wearing a black robe, with long black hair casually draped over his shoulders, and his delicate facial features were as sharp as if they were carved with a knife or an axe.

The most striking.

Nothing is more striking than his pair of purple-red eyes, which are like two bright rubies, sparkling with a mysterious and enchanting light.

It seems to be able to see through everything in the world, making people dare not look at it.

Everyone stared intently at the figure falling from the sky, not daring to breathe.

……

at this time.

"Lord Gubai!"

"Welcome to you."

Esdeath was the first to react.

She walked quickly to Gu Bo, her long silver-blue hair fluttering in the wind.

Esdeath ignored the gazes of others and slowly knelt on one knee.

……

And when they saw Esdeath actually kneeling on one knee in front of the man in black who fell from the sky.

For a moment, the entire square was silent.

You can hear the needle drop.

Everyone, including Minister Ernest, the Emperor, the three beastmen, and the well-trained imperial soldiers, stood there in a daze as if petrified, their eyes almost popping out.

This……

How can this be? !

You know, General Esdeath is the youngest and most powerful general in the entire empire.

Even when facing the emperor of the empire, he never showed the slightest awe.

But now...

The empire's youngest and most powerful general, Esdeath, actually knelt before a stranger right in front of them?!

This is simply...

This is simply incredible!

You know, General Esdeath is famous for his arrogant and contemptuous character, and he never takes anyone seriously.

Moreover, General Esdeath is one of the strongest men in the entire empire. Even when facing the strongest man in the empire, General Bud, he is not at all inferior.
