In the palace.
It was silent everywhere.
Only Jack's short and abrupt breath could be heard.
His short and abrupt breathing was amplified in the silence, which felt bloodcurdling.
The darkness and lifelessness...
Completely covered the entire palace.
It felt as if the whole palace was placed in extreme chilliness. It felt gruesome and terrifying, as though they were placed in a sea of blood and mountains of corpses.
At the next second.
Jack slowly turned around. His blood-red eyes stared fixedly at The Hun King who was sitting on his throne.
And following his gaze.
The Hun King's body instantly stiffened. He felt as if he was imprisoned, and his scalp was tingling with fear.
Even though he was the supreme ruler of The Hun, sitting on his throne in his palace.
However, when Jack stared at him, The Hun King felt a horrifying threat of death!
In a trance, he even thought that he had become a sheep on the snow plains. And Jack, who was staring at him, was a violent wolf predator.
“Sir…”
Amanda wanted to go forward.
However, Cynthia stopped her. As opposed to The Hun King's fear, Cynthia was looking at Jack doubtfully.
Because she felt something was amiss.
It was a kind of instinctive warning when faced with danger.
However, following Amanda's call.
Jack suddenly let out a long breath, shut his eyes, and fell to the ground.
And as Jack fell to the ground, the darkness and lifelessness that had previously engulfed the whole palace instantly disappeared without a trace.
“Sir!”
Amanda broke free from Cynthia and rushed towards Jack.
And on the throne, as Jack fell to the ground, the feeling of imprisonment that was enveloped on The Hun King was lifted.
The Hun King was relieved. He leaned on his throne and panted. However, there was an undisguised fear in the bottom of his eyes.
"Just now... I really thought he was going to rush up here and kill me."
He said it wholeheartedly, without any disguise.
Cynthia's deep gaze fell on the unconscious Jack, and her beautiful and alluring face was immediately filled with a layer of frost. She slowly turned around and looked at The Hun King who was sitting on his throne.
"Father, now that you have seen it with your own eyes. My man is much powerful than your strongest warrior. I hope that you will stop interfering in my matters in the future. Goodbye."
As she finished talking.
Cynthia summoned the stunned female guard who was outside of the palace and ordered her to carry Jack back to her chambers.
From the beginning to the end.
The Hun King had never stopped her or said anything else.
The Hun King looked at Cynthia and the rest walked out of the palace. Then, he twitched the corner of his lips, and let out a desolated and bitter smile.
He shifted his gaze to Wolfgang, whose life and death was still unknown.
The Hun King said self-mockingly, "The number one warrior of The Hun that I have fostered, couldn't even win an inland man who's only using one arm. How ridiculous!"
The Hun King shook his head and ordered the doctor to come and check Wolfgang's injuries.
When the doctor came and saw Wolfgang, his facial expression instantly changed.
Wolfgang was the strongest and most talented warrior of the Wolf House.
No one had ever seen Wolfgang in such a miserable state before!
The doctor quickly suppressed the fear within him and did a thorough check-up on Wolfgang.
The doctor's facial expression changed dramatically as he checked Wolfgang's injuries. Sweat poured out from his forehead.
When he finished the check-up, the doctor knelt and kowtowed, "My lord, Mr. Wolfgang has seven broken ribs and suffers internal bleedings. He's seriously injured, and his life is hanging by a thread. I suggest that you immediately summon all the doctors from the thirteen cities in the Royal Palace and perform operations on Mr. Wolfgang!"
