The Last Primal

Chapter 1012 1012 - The Return?

?

The tiles above the main hall shattered all of a sudden!

A dark light descended into the crowd within the blink of an eye.

At that moment, the tension was nigh within the main hall.

Although there were many martial artists inside, including Martial Grandmasters, nobody could react to the sudden appearance of the dark light!

"Watch out!"

"Who's there?!"

The crowd dispersed.

There was a swoosh!

The dark light was already pinned into the ground before it dispersed slowly – it looked like a bolt of dark energy.

The bolt of energy was so powerful that its tail was still quivering after more than half of its body was embedded in the ground!

Everyone focused their attention.

There were six spirit patterns on the body of that bolt of energy!

"It's a top grade artifact weapon!"

"No wonder it was so fast!"

The Martial Grandmasters in the main hall felt a sense of trepidation.

Given the situation earlier, if any of them were struck by the bolt of energy, they would have died on the spot, unable to avoid at all!

It was chaos in the main hall but there was one person who did not move.

The eldest prince!

Motionless, the eldest prince was particularly striking in the crowd.

Everyone looked at the eldest prince and could not help but shudder; their eyes widened in disbelief.

There was a horrific hole of blood in the head of the eldest prince!

The eldest prince was dead!

That bolt of energy had pierced his head!

"This…"

A momentary silence filled the main hall.

Immediately after, Mighty Lords Jin Sahn and Tioh Tahl were enraged as they shouted with murderous looks, "Who is the scum who dares to take the life of a prince of the Great North Dynasty?!"

Boom!

Mighty Lord Jin Sahn waved his sleeves and attacked.

A massive hole punctured the ceiling of the main hall.

It was empty

.

The person who attacked had already left.

"Fellow Mighty Lords, heed my call!"

Mighty Lord Jin Sahn calmed down and said darkly, "This is a spirit weapon so this man's martial arts realm is Martial Master at most. He can't have escaped Iron City just yet."

"Soldiers, hunt him down in the city!"

"Reporti—""

Suddenly, an urgent voice sounded outside the main hall.

A martial artist in martial arts attire sprinted over, panting heavily. He was drenched in sweat and looked agitated, but there was a hint of fear deep in his eyes.

"Reporti—"! Reporti—"!"

The martial artist barged right into the main hall and yelled while stuttering.

Mighty Lord Tioh Tahl berated him, "No matter what it is, hold on first!"

"It's an u-urgent news from the scouts at the front…!"

The martial artist panted heavily and said abruptly.

The expressions of everyone in the main hall changed.

"Did the allied army of the three dynasties not rest last and chose to cross Iron Mountain Range?"

"Ah!"

"If that's the case, they must have arrived at Iron City by now!"

A chaotic commotion broke out in the crowd.

"Silence!"

Suddenly, Seetho Khouge's voice sounded and overwhelmed the clamor with her aura as the empress.

She asked deeply, "Speak, what happened?"

The martial artist managed to compose himself by now. "Last time, the allied army of the three dynasties did not set up a camp. Instead, they chose to cross Iron Mountain Range!"I think you should take a look at

The hearts of everyone in the main hall sank when they heard that.

After a pause, the martial artist continued, "However, a beast stampede broke out in Iron Mountain Range!"

"What!"

"Beast stampede?"

"How is that possible?"

A series of exclamations broke out from the crowd.

Mighty Lord Mor Hall had a calm expression and said darkly, "From what I know, there are no fiend demons in Iron Mountain Range. Even if there's a beast stampede, it shouldn't be of concern to the allied army."

The martial artist gulped and continued, "The allied army is almost completely destroyed. They had several million troops but only a few hundred thousand of them managed to escape!"

"The three princes died and the allied army has already withdrawn in defeat!"

Silence engulfed the main hall.

Completely destroyed!

The three princes were dead!

The news were so shocking that everyone almost forgot that the prince of Great North was just killed by a bolt of energy.

"The heavens are watching over the Great North Dynasty!"

Many generals and commanders knelt on the ground and exclaimed emotionally.

Seetho Khouge frowned with a pensive expression.

The martial artist's mouth twitched, as though he wanted to say something but stopped himself.

Mighty Lord Mor Hall frowned – although this was a joyous piece of news, there were way too many questions left.

"A hundred Martial Grandmasters accompanied the allied army. Where are they?" Mighty Lord Mor Hall asked again.

The martial artist replied with a trembling voice and a fearful expression, "T-They're all dead."

"They're all dead?"

Mighty Lord Mor Hall shuddered and pressed on. "The fiend demon of Iron Mountain Range is so powerful?"

"There's no fiend demon,"

The martial artist shook his head. "Someone triggered the beast stampede in Iron Mountain Range. Later on, the hundred Martial Grandmasters chased that person into a small town."

"A thick fog shrouded the small town and by the time it dispersed, all the Martial Grandmasters were dead with no survivors!"

The main hall went silent once more.

Everyone had puzzled and shocked expressions.

There was a person who could command thousands of demons and trigger such a terrifying beast stampede to devour the allied army?

Or… could that have been a quasi-divine ferocious beast?

But why would a quasi-divine ferocious beast run to the town?

Why was there a fog shrouding the town?

How did the hundred Martial Grandmasters die later on?

Everything sounded extremely odd.

After pondering for a moment, Mighty Lord Mor Hall asked, "Why did that man stand in the way of the allied army?"

The martial artist replied, "His kin passed away at the same time as the invasion of the allied army. In his rage, he triggered the beast stampede and committed the massacre, declaring that he wanted everyone to be buried along with his kin!"

When Seetho Khouge heard that, she thought of something and shuddered. Ignoring her injuries, she dashed out of the main hall and gazed into the distance.

Mighty Lord Mor Hall asked once again with a sharp gaze, "What's the name of that person?"

"I think it's… Aiden!"

Psst!

The moment that name was spoken, everyone in the main hall gasped in shock.

Aiden… the strongest monster incarnate in history from many years ago!

He defeated all the paragons of the Martial Grandmaster and incinerated Martial Grandmasters in the Great Forbidden Ruins, dying the skies red!

Almost everyone had forgotten about that name after so many years.

To think that it would be mentioned once more today!

"Impossible!"

Mighty Lord Jin Sahn interrupted, "Everyone knows that Aiden leaped into the Dragon Burial Valley. How could he still be alive?"

Mighty Lord Mor Hall was in disbelief as well.

However, deep in his heart, he knew that if there was a person in the world who could commit such an act, it would have to be Aiden!

"I heard that this top grade Black Gold bolt of energy was used by Aiden in that battle of the North Region paragons many years ago," A martial artist said in a hushed tone within the crowd.

There were some rumors in the imperial court of Great North regarding the relationship between Seetho Khouge and Aiden.
