"Hahaha…"
"Arthur is finished!"
"Damn dog thing, weren't you very arrogant in the Capital City? Why don't you continue being arrogant in front of the devil friend army? Now you've ended up dead, hahaha…"
In the Cold Sea Sect.
Lord Van Dross was extremely happy. The anger that had been building for over a month inside him finally broke free today, and the feeling was too much!
When he saw the last bit of golden light on Arthur being devoured, he started laughing. He was laughing loudly and wildly in extreme joy. The expression on his face looked like he wanted to light up some fireworks in celebration.
"The King of the Evans Kingdom has died."
"The Capital City will soon be broken through."
"Sect Leader, our time has come. Now's the time for us to carve up the territories of the Evans Kingdom. According to my sources, there are already many Sects that are eyeing the territories, so we should start preparing as well." Lord Van Dross excitedly said to Baldur Senior.
Baldur Senior's mouth also curved into a gloomy smile.
Recalling that his only son's life root was destroyed near the royal palace and their Baldur Household's incense-bearing predecessors had been cut off, the rage inside him erupted like a volcano.
Immediately after…
Baldur Senior's expression turned serious as he said, "Notify all the disciples of the Battle Hall to assemble. They'll be setting off immediately!"
Cold Sea Sect's Battle Hall was where their strongest and most elite disciples gathered.
Lord Van Dross smiled excitedly and said, "Good, I will go make preparations now."
Baldur Senior flew into the air and looked towards the Capital City. He then harrumphed in disdain: "A ragtag army like that wishes to resist the devil fiend army? Hahaha… The Capital City will soon be annihilated. But it is a bit unfortunate that this ten-thousand-year-old ancient city will be gone just like that."

"Arthur has died!"
"Arthur has died!"
"Our opportunity has arrived! After being suppressed by the Evans Kingdom for a few thousand years, it's time for us to vent this frustration."
"Ready the army! We will be heading to the territories of the Evans Kingdom!"
---
"Hahaha… The Capital City is finished! Our opportunity is here! This is the time when warlords will be vying for hegemony, so my Sun Sect will use this chance to rise. Hahaha… the heavens have sent me such a great opportunity, so I cannot miss out on it."
---
Many Sects and thousand-year-old households were revealing their hidden wild ambitions!
They were planning on rising during the chaos!
Once the Capital City is done for, this will be the declaration of the Evans Kingdom's destruction.
At this time, rival warlords will start dividing up the country and vying for dominance. This was precisely the perfect time for those forces that the Evans Kingdom had been bullying for all these years to rise up!

Hall of Souls.
Inside the Dark Cage.
Gwendolyn was constantly releasing her powers and smashing against the cage.
"Bang!"
"Bang!"
"Bang!"
She looked like she had gone insane as she disregarded everything while attacking the cage. She bounced off the powers around the Dark Cage yet continued smashing herself against it. She repeatedly did this and was now pale white from the Dark Cage's vibration powers. Fresh blood could be clearly seen on the corner of her mouth.
Extremely painful!
But Gwendolyn had no intent to stop.
Her throat had become hoarse from screaming.
She had cried to the point of having no more tears left.
She had begged everyone she could think of and made all the promises she could keep. But everything was useless!
She was like a little girl who had been forced into isolation.
It was like she had been thrown into an endless abyss called the Dark Cage.
The only thing she could do was smash against the cage, using her powers to break through this restraint.
But the King of Souls was too powerful.
Powerful to the point that she couldn't even imagine. No matter how much she attacked it, the Dark Cage's energy didn't weaken and actually became stronger.
Gwendolyn's heart was dead silent. She clearly knew she wouldn't be able to break out of the cage, yet she was desperately striking it. She was silently praying inside her heart: "Maxwell, you must stay alive, you have to continue living. I'm still waiting for you to marry her. I'm still waiting to be your bride…"
Suddenly…
A voice was transmitted over.
George faintly sighed before saying, "Why do you torture yourself like that? Is it really worth it to do this for him?"
Gwendolyn didn't reply. When dealing with the people of the Hall of Souls, including her mother, she didn't want to speak a single word to them.
"Bang!"
"Bang!"
George heavily exhaled and said, "Stop hitting it. Mother promises you that I will have the Hall Master send out reinforcements as long as you stop throwing yourself against the cage. Mother's heart is in a lot of pain when seeing you like this."
"Is he really that good?"
"Does he really deserve you treating him so well? You are someone with the Phoenix bloodline… can a poor backwater hick like him be worthy of you?"
Gwendolyn stopped her attacks and softly said, "In this entire world, he is the only person who truly treats me well."
She somewhat regretted saying those words.
After all, these words were said to her own mother.
Her heart felt a bit apologetic, but the regret wasn't too strong.
George's heart fell as her brows scrunched up. She then said, "I will have the Hall Master send out reinforcements while you just obediently cultivate in the Dark Cage. When you can fully control your starlight powers, the Hall Master will automatically release you."
After saying that…
George disappeared.
Gwendolyn stopped smashing the cage and smiled happily. Her happiness made her look like a little ordinary woman. She looked up at the dark sky and softly said, "You will definitely survive. My mother has promised to send out reinforcements."
However…
What she didn't know was that…
The Hall of Souls didn't send out a single person as reinforcement.
George never mentioned this to anyone!
As a mother, she will definitely not allow her daughter to walk the wrong path. Gwendolyn was supposed to form a family with Peter Wesley and become the Saintess of the Heaven's Gate Immortal Sect, not hang around with a country bumpkin. She will absolutely not allow this!
At this time…
George was hoping the devil fiend army would quickly destroy the Capital City and kill everyone there!

Maxwell sneezed twice as his heart turned cold. He then cursed to himself: "Damn it! Who is cursing?!"
On top of the city walls.
They were watching the devil fiend army approach one step at a time.
Their footsteps were as loud as thunder.
The devilish flames around their bodies were like black raging flames.
Constantine was quickly running over with a forehead full of sweat. He then said with excitement, "Boss, I've secretly done what you've told me to do and distributed those upgrade arrows to everyone. Are they really going to be useful?"
This was the doubt in everyone's mind.
Will the upgrade arrows really be of use?
Many people held onto a sceptical attitude. Maxwell faintly smiled and said, "You guys will see in a bit."
Devil fiend army!
Not all of those in the devil fiend army were powerful and peerless existences. They, too, had low-level devils with low cultivation, and there wasn't much left of their health bars. After the battle with the Royal Palace Guards and the Black Dragon Legion, the health bars of many devil fiends were already reaching the bottom.
It's just that Maxwell was the only one who could see this!
"Reporting!"
"They have entered the shooting range!"
Maxwell started grinning in excitement. With his fists clenched, he then roared into the sky: "Archers, get ready! Draw your bows at full arch!"
"Creak…"
"Creak…"
"Shoot those devils to death!"
