With the Northern King's plan a success, he would not bother himself with Johnny's survival as Johnny was no longer

of any use to him.

His next goal would be to occupy every corner of the city to consolidate his authority.

After ordering his men to swiftly take over everything in the city and occupy every corner, he left to ascertain the

situation in the forges for divine weapons.

The most valuable commodities among the Legions were the Spirit Stones, spiritual iron, and divine weapons.

In the meantime, Southern King was slowly regaining consciousness from his stupor in the forests deep in the

mountain.

After being knocked out cold by Zeke's energy, he regained consciousness only after night had descended.

His mind was in a daze, and his body was throbbing. It took him a long while to regain his senses.

Suddenly, his ordeal at the Centurias' base came back to him in vivid detail, and his heartbeat quickened in horror.

The new commander's frighteningly powerful. If I had known, I wouldn't have picked a fight with him.

Southern King was so weak that he felt like he might drop dead at any moment.

Quickly, he sat cross-legged to compose himself and channeled his energy to repair the damage to his body.

Thus, he meditated the entire night until his vital signs stabilized.

As soon as he was able, he started back with his mind in a whirl.

Zeke is too powerful. The Southern Faction Legions would be at a loss to make an enemy of him. Why not swear

fealty to him? That way, our might would be bolstered, and we may even take over the Northern Faction with the

new leader's strength. Mmm, that's what we'll do.

He picked up his pace, intent on bringing the Southern Faction Legions to join Zeke's cause.

However, he was unaware that Northern King had conquered the Southern Faction Legions.

The guards discovered Southern King when he approached the Southern Faction camp and immediately reported

the incident to Northern King, imploring him to take a look.

At that moment, Northern King was at the Spirit Stone reserve, taking stock of the spiritual iron and divine

weapons.

A jeering smile appeared on his lips at the sound of his men's report. “Hah! Southern King has had his fun boasting

about taking over the Northern Faction on more than one account. Now that I have acquired the Southern Faction

first, I can't wait to see the look on his face when he finds out. Show him in and bring him to the palace. I want to

see his expression. Hah!”

“At once, sir.”

A disheveled Southern King scrambled to the city entrance. “Open the gates!” he roared.

The sentries quickly opened the gates for Southern King, who had not yet noticed that the sentries were different.

The truth was that he did not have a clue as to which of his men guarded the city gates. As the high and mighty

Southern King, the matter of personnel was not something he concerned himself with.

He walked through the city gates and hurried to the palace without noticing the guards on either side were no

longer his men.

Half an hour later, Southern King arrived at the palace.

Only then did he finally realize something was amiss—the guards at the palace gates seemed unfamiliar.

“Are you two new?” Southern King asked at once.

The palace guards exchanged a glance before nodding. “Yes, we're new.”

We are new. In fact, it's our first time in the Southern Faction base.

Southern King was irritated. “Hmph, the Elders are going from bad to worse. How dare they change the palace

guards without first running it by me? It's high time they are taught a lesson.”

The palace guards were of vital importance as they pertained directly to his personal safety.

Thus, their appointment and dismissal were personally overseen by Southern King. With the Elders' meddlesome

ways, in addition to his utter defeat at Zeke's hands, Southern King's mood was predictably foul.

“Tell all of the Legatuses to gather here,” Southern King ordered with a scowl. “We have matters to discuss.”

The guards smiled knowingly. “The Legatuses are already awaiting your presence in the palace.”
