My Waste Husband

Chapter 1993

"What?

"It's poisonous?"

The crowd followed Henry's gaze and looked at Milborne! "This... ha ha ha!"

Milborne was stunned for a moment, he immediately burst into laughter. "Henry, you really are a joker! I just became your ally, why would I poison the roast meat?"

"Even the people of the Grand Xia Dynasty only brought weapons and equipment along with them. However, the people of your Thundercloud Empire went even further to bring cutlery for roast meat. It's obvious that you had already planned everything!"

Henry sneered.

"What... even if I did intend to poison someone, I would just choose to poison Prince Xia. How would I benefit from poisoning you get?"

Milborne's expression was suddenly cold.

"I'm sure you have your motives!"

Henry smiled and said, "In fact, you have revealed many flaws just now. I already had my guard up against you from the moment we had just met!"

"What?

"I... What flaws are you talking about?"

Milborne was shocked.

"Your smile was your biggest flaw!"

"My smile?"

"Indeed, I met you back then at the opening ceremony of the tournament of the Alliance of the Restricted Zones. You always had a cold attitude and never seemed to want to talk, and you never smiled a bit even when you were about to enter the Restricted Zones!"

Henry looked at Milborne coldly. "Yet you smiled so warmly when you met me just now. It's all so abnormal!"

"Abnormal actions often lead to suspicious reasons, which was why I believed that something must be wrong with you! So, I pretended to form an alliance with you to find out what kind of tricks you are trying to play!"

"Shortly afterwards, you used your alliance with me to force Prince Xia to join the alliance. Then, you became everyone's leader very naturally!" "The first thing you needed to do was to get rid of the guards of the Grand Xia Dynasty that were stationed around the Tai Chi Ruins. That way, the ruins would be under your control, which made me suspect you even more!"

"And now, you offered us roast meat on plates, but Little Baby here didn't want to touch the meat in his plate, and would only snatch the meat on yours!"

"All of that is enough to prove that the meat before us is poisonous, and the meat in front of you and your subordinates is not!"

"Hahaha! Henry, I didn't expect you to be so sharp and observant!"

Seeing that Henry had already seen through his actions, Milborne burst into laughter and stood up, then waved his hand.

"Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!"

Countless archers appeared outside the low walls of the Tai Chi Ruins! They all drew their bows and aimed their arrows at Henry and his friends.

"Henry, even if you had suspected me from the very beginning, you all are already within my grasp!"

Milborne grinned sinisterly and said, "All I have to do is give an order, and all of you become porcupines!"

"Well then, what are you waiting for?"

Henry sneered.

"I..." "If you had wanted to kill me, you would have done it long ago. Would there still have been a need to use such a clumsy method like poisoning?

If I'm not mistaken, the poison in our meats is just a substance that would leave us defenseless, right?"

"That's right! My goal is to hold you down then bring you out of the Restricted Zones. Then, I'll deal with you slowly!"

Milborne said maliciously.

"You're from the Severity Tribe, aren't you?"

Henry asked, as he raised his head to look at Milborne.

"You... you are even able to guess this about me?"Nôvel(D)ra/ma.Org exclusive © material.

Milborne was taken aback.

"It's not that I'm brilliant! It's just that the people of the Severity Tribe have never appeared since I entered the Vast Thousand Worlds. The commander of the Holly Crusaders had been killed, so it's impossible for them to be able to cause trouble again!"

Henry smiled lazily and said, "So, the Severity Tribe would probably be the only group that would be most likely to plot against me, I can't think of anyone else!"

"You're right! We, the Thundercloud Empire, have been a force of the Severity Tribe since as early as three thousand years ago!"

Seeing that Henry had guessed everything about them, it did not matter any longer.

"The Severity Tribe had subdued you, but what do they want you to do for them?"

Henry asked with furrowed brows.

"They... Why should I tell you?"

Milborne was just about to answer Henry's question, but he quickly stopped himself.

"With so many of your men aiming at us with bows and arrows, we are already meat on your chopping board. What more are you afraid of?" Henry said sneeringly and shook his head. "You're more cowardly than a mouse. No wonder you've been acting like a pathetic dog in the Vast Thousand Worlds and tried to hard to be liked, just like that Gordie!"

"Humph! We, the Thundercloud Empire, keep a low profile, not because we are timid, but because we follow the instructions of the Severity Tribe. We guard the gates of the ancient land and the Restricted Zones from the dark!"

Milborne blurted out the truth after being provoked by Henry.

"Why are you guarding the gates of the ancient land and the Restricted Zones?"

Henry asked puzzledly.

"Seeing that you have no escape, I shall tell you everything!"

Milborne said cockily, "Three

thousand years ago, the great master of Severity Tribe told our ancestors of the Thundercloud Empire that they wanted us to guard the Vast Thousand Worlds secretly. Whenever anything unusual occured in the ancient land, or if the defences of the gate of the Restricted Zones were down, we had to report it to them as quickly as possible!"

"A while ago, the Gates of Heaven of the ancient land were opened, and it seemed that someone was coming in and out of it. I quickly burned the incense as a signal to report to the master of the Severity Tribe, then we were ordered to silently hunt for a person named Henry Zhang!"

"However, when you reached the Vast Thousand Worlds, you pretended to be Virpids the Old Demon. None of us from the Thundercloud Empire managed to find you!"

"Even at the opening ceremony of the Tournament of the Alliance of the Restricted Zones, I didn't know that you were the Henry Zhang the Severity Tribe is looking for!"

"During the battle of Broken Dragon

Valley, I had already known that

Nahir was planning to ambush the

people from the Sacred Empire, so didn't interfere in that. I was hoping for both the Grand Xia Dynasty and the Sacred Empire to be crippled, so that I could just benefit from it!"

"But I was not expecting the Holly Cross to have found out that you're Henry Zhang!"

"Shortlt after, you were taken away by the Hong Clan, so I reported it to the master of Severity Tribe. The master ordered me to lead my men to the restricted area and capture you!"

"How are the people of the Severity Tribe able to travel to the Vast Thousand Worlds?

Is it through the eight gates of the Restricted Zones?"

Henry asked again.

"I don't know the details. However, apart from the ancient land, the rest of the area of the Vast Thousand Worlds is the Restricted Zones. The master

of the Severity Tribe should have entered and exited the Vast Thousand Worlds through the eight gates of the Restricted Zones!"

Milborne smiled and said, "However,

you don't have to worry. As long as I have you captured, the master of Severity Tribe will take advantage of the weakened seal of the Restricted Zones and come here to take you away. When that time comes, you shall know how to leave Vast Thousand Worlds, hahaha!" "Really?

Do you really think that you have me within the palm of your hand?"

Henry said as he picked his ear lazily.

"What?

"You've lost all of your divine powers, what other tricks could you possibly play?"

Milborne looked at Henry doubtfully and was instantly alert.

"Haven't you noticed that I've been sitting in front of the yellow pillar of light of the Gate of Death all this while?"

Henry smiled calmly and said. "You didn't place any archers behind the Gate of Death!"

"What about that?

Do

you

intend to escape into the Gate of Death?"

Milborne was shocked.

"I'd just be sitting here and awaiting my death if I don't escape into the Gate of Death in a situation like this.

That's just not how I roll!"

Henry smiled again.
