The Ultimate Husband (Darryl and Lily Lyndon) novel Chapter 2819

Chapter 2819

No one recognized Chester’s outfit, but Jack was no stranger to his appearance as a minion of the King of the Dead. Jack dared not treat the esteemed envoy to the king with disrespect.

Chester responded curtly and said to Jack, "Jack, His Majesty has found a gem indeed. You managed to catch all the people from the major sects in The Nine Continent so quickly."

Jack was overjoyed to hear the praise and said, "It is my duty to serve His Majesty."

"However, His Majesty has just issued a new order and told me to tell you specifically," Chester replied.

Jack looked solemn, "what is the order?"

Chester looked around and pointed to Quincy and the rest. "His Majesty wants you to let these people go."

‘What? Release these people from the major sects? It took a lot of effort to catch all of them. ’ Jack was shocked.

Jack thought he heard it wrong and jokingly said, " Your Excellency, please don't joke with me. Before I left, His Majesty repeatedly told me that I must topple all the major sects in The Nine Continent, why-"

Chester interrupted without waiting for Jack to finish. "Jack, the decision of His Majesty is not something you and I can understand."

With a blank expression, he said, "Perhaps, this is just a test of your loyalty toward His Majesty but he had no real intentions to capture these people."

Chester glanced at Quincy and the others calmly. The King of the Dead did not order those people to be released; Chester made up the fake decree.

Chester was imprisoned in purgatory when King of the Dead sent Jack out on the mission, but Chester learned the situation from the ghost armies. Without much consideration, the desperate Chester found a chance to escape from purgatory.

He knew that he was taking risks. After all, the King of the Dead was powerful, but he had no other choice. If all the people from the major sects were arrested and sent to the Ghost World, the entire cultivators’ world in The Nine Continent would be over.

Jack stood therewith mixed emotions and hesitated. " Err..."

Chester's face sank. "Now what? Do you dare disobey His Majesty’s order?"

"No, I don’t..." Jack trembled and shook his head profusely.

The next second, Jack waved at the followers and said, "What are you guys doing in a daze? Quick! Let them go."

After arresting those people from the major sects painstakingly, Jack never wanted to let them go, but he had no choice but to follow the King of the Dead's orders obediently.

He did not know that he was deceived by Chester.

Quincy and the others were untied right away, but they did not leave immediately due to the immense shock they were experiencing. They stood in place, shaking uncontrollably.

‘Aren’t these people from the Raksasa Tribe? How did they end up being the King of the Dead’s minions? And why would the King of the Dead arrest US?’ they wondered.

Just as Quincy and the rest were wondering about what was going on, Chester said to Jack, "Jack, you should go quickly, His Majesty has a new task for you! II

Jack nodded and led his followers into the black hole and disappeared from everyone's sight in the blink of an eye.
