Chapter 722 The Power of Black Moon
The Andrews family members were already set on rebelling, so there was no need for them to hide NôvelDrama.Org owns © this.
their identities.
After a chaotic battle, none of the King's guards survived. They were skilled, but they were too few in
numbers.
Numerous corpses piled up in the residence, and the floor was red with blood.
The men from Skyarch Palace were not idle. After dealing with the guards, they hurriedly made their
way further inside the residence.
When Lyndon heard the footsteps approach, he had a bad premonition. The place was tightly guarded,
and the average person should not be able to enter. In addition, the rapid footsteps he heard did not
sound like those of the King's guards.
That left only one possibility—the enemy had invaded the residence!
Lyndon was confused, though. Who would have the ability to do so? It was obvious that the opposing
forces had been planning this for a long time.
He was the chief commander of the King's guards, but all of them had died in West Aridlands. His army
was not reconstructed yet, so he was the only one left.
He realized that this incident would be the most perilous one he had encountered ever since he began
serving the King. If the guards in the King's residence had all been killed, he was the only one who
could protect the King.
At that thought, Lyndon picked up a machine gun and stood guard outside the King's room. He must
protect the King and ensure that His Majesty was safe no matter what. Even if the enemy fighters were
all experts, they would be incomparably weak in front of bullets.
In an instant, the martial artists in Skyarch Palace rushed forward. Upon seeing the huge mob of
people, Lyndon did not hesitate at all and fired immediately. He killed those people who had dashed
forward before they could even react.
They were all extremely powerful eternal grandmasters, but they were helpless against bullets that
came at them all of a sudden. They were only human, after all.
Lyndon fired the machine gun again and again until it was about to smoke, causing more men from
Skyarch Palace to fall. Lyndon was alone in his efforts, but the enemy could do nothing against him.
Some of them could dodge the bullets, of course. Some others picked up weapons and fired back at
Lyndon.
Just as Lyndon was engaged in this heated battle, his machine gun ran out of bullets. When the men
from Skyarch Palace noticed that, they rushed forward instantly. Helpless, Lyndon could only set the
gun down and pick up a knife from beside him before charging into the fray.
Metallic glints of light flashed by as Lyndon engaged in battle with those men. He was an innate
grandmaster who was quite powerful himself, but when faced with so many enemies, he found it
difficult to maintain his short-lived advantage in battle after a few rounds.
Right at that moment, an old man hit Lyndon's back with his palm. Lyndon felt a chill go down his back
as a powerful force hit him with a muted thud.
Lyndon stumbled a few steps forward, almost collapsing to the floor. His face stiffened before he spat
out a glob of blood.
He then felt his organs roiling in his body. He had only been hit once by the enemy. From this, one
could see how powerful the man who had hit him was.
Noticing that Lyndon was at his limit, the men from Skyarch Palace were not hasty in taking action.
Lyndon looked back at the old man, asking, "Who are you?"
"You aren't worthy of hearing my name, young man. You just need to know that you're about to die in a
few days!" the old man said. He was also a martial artist, and his name was Jett Dunn.
"You invaded the King's residence at night. What are you after?" Lyndon asked.
"You're not that bright, are you, young man? We want to capture the King, of course!" Jett said in
disdain.
"How bold of you! Are you courting death for you to be so bold as to attempt capturing the King?"
Lyndon asked, furious.
"We're just doing this under orders," Jett replied.
"Under whose orders?" Lyndon asked. He knew that his death was inescapable, but he wanted to buy
more time. If the reinforcements arrived on time, these men would be executed.
At this moment, someone spoke at the back of the throng, "Under my orders, Chief Gorp!"
The men from Skyarch Palace cleared a path immediately, on which Jerry and his sons—Kelvin and
Zane—walked. They no longer needed to hide their identities.
Darren Everett, the head of Raging Blade, and Jethro Roman, the head of Three Poisons Hall, followed
beside them. Darren was holding a huge blade about as tall as a human. It was Black Moon, which was
left behind by Greenton.
Lyndon was unspeakably shocked upon seeing Jerry and his sons walk out. He knew of Jerry's cruel
nature, but he did not expect him to be the one who led a huge mob into the King's residence.
Even Jerry, who had such standing in the royal court, dared to orchestrate a rebellion!
"His Majesty has never mistreated you, has he, Jerry? Why would you start a rebellion?" Lyndon said
angrily.
"His Majesty has treated me well, Lyndon, but we humans must advance toward higher places!" Jerry
was all smiles. He knew that every one of the King's guards had died.
"You shouldn't look so gleeful! You dare rebel against the King? The Andrews family will be wiped out!"
Lyndon threatened.
"I can't be bothered to waste time talking to you. Where's the King? Has he hidden inside the secret
chamber? Take him out now and maybe I can consider sparing you!" Jerry said.
He had long investigated Balthazar, and he knew that Balthazar would always go into hiding whenever
he encountered danger. It was just that Jerry did not know where Balthazar's secret chamber was.
"Don't even think about it! I'll never tell you the King's whereabouts!" Lyndon said.
"There's no one who can protect the King now, Lyndon. You might as well consider joining me, and I
can promise that I'll reward you handsomely!" Jerry said.
"Cut the crap. You might as well kill me now," Lyndon said with determination.
He and the King were the only people who knew about the chamber. As long as he kept silent, the King
would be safe.
"Even if he doesn't say anything, we still have our ways. We can find the King!" Jett said.
"Oh? What's your plan?" Jerry asked.
"We have a lot of powerful, skilled men in Skyarch Palace. We can have them strike at the same time
and destroy the King's residence. With that, we can surely open the door of the chamber!" Jett said.
"The King's residence is constructed using special materials. Do you really have the power to destroy
it? Also, what if you injure the King?" Jerry asked worriedly.
"Don't worry, we're capable of restraint," Jett answered.
The next moment, Darren came out holding Black Moon. He said, "Let me test this blade out, Mr.
Andrews!"
"Sure, go for it," Jerry said. It so happened that he also wanted to see for himself how powerful this
legendary blade could be.
