Chapter 2742 Lose Your Power
“You’re too arrogant, you old fart! I’ll attack Imperial Beast City right now and show you what I’m capable of!” Xandros roared, waving his saber. “Attack!”
His Sky Breaker had been destroyed by Jared, so he had switched to using a saber. Tens of thousands of soldiers shouted and charged toward Imperial Beast City.
Looking down at the soldiers and the smug Xandros, Yuven said coldly, “It seems if I don’t teach that brat a lesson, he’ll think he’s undefeatable!” He was about to catch Xandros from among the latter’s army personally when a cold blade settled next to his shoulder.
“I suggest you stay put, Your Majesty,” threatened Tigerus from behind. Yuven was shocked to hear Tigerus’ voice. A moment later, rage swelled in Yuven’s eyes.
“What are you doing. Tigerus?” Ivasha was shocked when she saw that. “How dare you commit regicide,, Tigerus!” Julius was similarly surprised.
“Regicide? I was loyal to him for years, but what did I get in the end? I couldn’t even be compared to a human. Princess Ivasha would rather follow a human than spare a glance at me! In their eyes, I’m always an insignificant subordinate! I find this sort of life meaningless. Instead of some nameless general, I’d rather be the king! I want to rule over Imperial Beast City!
Then, I’ll be able to pick any woman I want, and they won’t be able to refuse, including Ivasha. When I ascend to the throne, she will lose her status as a princess and become my plaything!” Tigerus laughed maniacally, his eyes filled with madness. He looked all the more terrifying when a gust of wind ruffled his hair.
At that moment, accompanied by Tigerus’ loud laughter, the city gates opened, and Xandros and his men promptly rushed in. “Tigerus, you traitor! I’m going to kill you!” Ivasha was absolutely furious and immediately tried to attack Tigerus.
However, Julius stopped her. “Calm down, Princess Ivasha. His Majesty is still in danger. You mustn’t be rash!”
“If you don’t want your father to die at my hands, I suggest you obey me!” Tigerus sneered. Fury was burning in Ivasha’s eyes, yet she couldn’t do anything but glower at him.
At that moment, Xandros came to the city wall. He looked at Yuven and smirked. “Didn’t you say I couldn’t attack Imperial Beast City? Well, not only am I inside, I’m standing in front of you right now!”
“You think a cr*ppy sword can stop me? I can kill you both right now.” Staring at the arrogant Xandros, Yuven spoke calmly instead of losing his composure.
“I’m standing right here. If you want to claim my life, come and take it,” Xandros provoked. “You asked for it!” Yuven was finally enraged and his aura exploded.
The air stirred, but when he was about to attack, his expression abruptly changed. Then, his face scrunched up in agony. At the same time, Ivasha pressed her hands on her abdomen before collapsing to the ground in pain.
“Your Majesty! Princess Ivasha!” Julius panicked upon witnessing that sight. At that moment, Yuven felt as though his internal organs were thrown into an active blender. The aura within his body was depleting rapidly, disabling his ability to manifest his power.
Xandros watched the effects of the drug kick in and burst into laughter. “Did you think I would attack Imperial Beast City unprepared?”
“Stop resisting, Your Majesty. I spiked your dinner last night. The drug is colorless and flavorless, which is why you didn’t detect it. Once you take it, you’ll lose your power,” Tigerus revealed.
