Chapter 125: Chapter 125

Experts of this caliber generally had eccentric temperaments, so it was not too strange for him to have such thoughts.

But the South-Subduing King worried that this Adam might change his mind in the future and lean toward Oswin.

To him, that would be a devastating blow that would shatter the current balance of power.

After the Heaven and Earth Upheaval began, the ancestors of his lineage had awakened one after another, he had asked them, and even the strongest Great Ancestor did not dare say he could stably defeat this person.

Once this person supported Oswin, the Southern clans would receive a massive boost.

Furthermore, with his miraculous methods, who knew how many powerhouses he could cultivate!

Eunuch Flint’s face looked solemn, and he did not dare answer lightly.

After a long time, he said uncertainly, "Your Highness, I truly do not have the certainty to guarantee whether this person genuinely wants to spend the rest of his days in the Inkwood Academy."

"But afterward, I immediately ordered the hidden guards to collect all past interactions between this person and Oswin. The results were quite shocking."

Exhaling a heavy breath, Eunuch Flint continued. "This person and Oswin have a very deep relationship. If Oswin’s life is truly in danger, I fear this person might not just watch from the sidelines!"

"What?! You’re saying this person and Oswin have a deep relationship?!!!"

Hearing this from Eunuch Flint, the South-Subduing King’s expression turned exceedingly ugly.

Although Oswin was currently just a puppet, this arrangement was merely a helpless decision forced by circumstances.

Some days ago, to quickly breach the capital, the South-Subduing King did not hesitate to invite the other three Kings to assist him.

Only then was he able to breach the heavily fortified Silver Willow capital in such a short time.

But it is easier to invite the gods than to send them away. These three Kings wanted to carve up the Silver Willow dynasty and rule it separately.

To placate them, he had no choice but to let Oswin, who was only the deputy commander of the allied forces, become the current ruler of the Silver Willow dynasty.

But a puppet was ultimately just a puppet. Eventually, he himself would ascend to the throne, and Oswin would inevitably have to be eradicated.

If Adam and Oswin had a deep relationship, he feared that in the future, Adam would not stand by idly.

This was something he could not tolerate.

"Go quickly and invite the Great Ancestor, Second Ancestor, and Third Ancestor! I am going to hunt down Adam. Go quickly!"

"Yes, Your Highness."

Silver Willow Imperial Palace, Longevity Hall.

Longevity Hall was packed with the major representatives of the Southern aristocratic clans. Everyone’s faces were filled with solemnity.

Jasper, situated at the very front, finally could not help but speak up. "Your Majesty, is your close friend truly unwilling to come out and assist us?!"

A few days ago, when he heard Oswin say the Mortal Supreme was his close friend, Jasper’s heart was filled with excitement.

As for that Mortal Supreme, Jasper knew full well how powerful he was, even with the awakened foundations of the Southern clans, none of their ancestors had absolute certainty to defeat this person.

Originally, when the South-Subduing King wanted Oswin to become ruler of the Silver Willow dynasty, Jasper knew it was a trap and that the king merely wanted to prop up a puppet.

Yet he still resolutely persuaded Oswin to enter the trap.

What he relied on was precisely this close friend Oswin spoke of. As long as this close friend was willing to help, the current predicament would be effortlessly resolved, he did not expect that this friend would choose to watch from the sidelines.

Jasper’s eyes were filled with unwillingness, wanting Oswin to go and beg that person for help again.

A trace of displeasure flashed in Oswin’s eyes. "Uncle Jasper, say no more. Although Brother Adam is a rare talent of our time, my current situation is simply too perilous. If it weren’t for your repeated pleading, I might not have even thought of dragging Brother Adam into this mess."

"Now that Brother Adam has refused my request, it might not necessarily be a bad thing. At least he doesn’t have to wade into these muddy waters."

When Adam refused to help, Oswin was indeed somewhat angry and resentful at first. But looking back on it later, he felt a trace of relief.

He was now the ruler of a dynasty, supported by numerous Southern clans, his every word and action were no longer decided by him alone.

Thus, even knowing this would drag Adam into the fray, he had no choice but to do it.

But now, Adam’s stern refusal actually made the guilt in his heart lessen a bit.

Although Adam had refused, Oswin was not disheartened. He firmly believed that, based on their deep friendship, Adam would not truly leave him to die.

Silver Willow Capital, Vermilion Bird Street.

Leaving the Inkwood Academy, Adam walked along Vermilion Bird Street toward the Vernal Manor.

After many days of war, the once bustling Vermilion Bird Street now appeared somewhat desolate, filled with broken walls and debris everywhere.

The houses on both sides were terribly dilapidated, many doors and walls were covered in knife and spear marks, and even mottled bloodstains. Along the entire street, not a single clean, undamaged house could be found, showing how tragic the battle for the capital had been.

It was the dead of night, and on the deserted Vermilion Bird Street, only Adam was strolling alone.

Suddenly, Adam stopped his leisurely walk.

The relaxed expression on his face was instantly replaced by a mask of frost.

Adam looked back toward the distant void, his eyes full of coldness. In that distant sky, several powerful auras were rushing toward him.

Soon, three powerful auras descended into the sky directly in front of Adam, standing suspended in mid-air.

A trace of surprise flashed in Adam’s eyes.

These three were obviously coming for him, but he asked himself and could not recall offending these three mysterious powerhouses.

These three had extremely powerful auras, and their terrifying momentum cast a ten-mile radius of the capital into a heavy, oppressive atmosphere.

Any random one of them was at least a Mastering the Dao existence, and judging by their auras, they had likely stayed in the Mastering the Dao realm for a very long time.
