“Alfred, you really make me sad!”
The one who was stabbed in the back was indeed Alfred, the master who had been wearing clothes for a thousand years.
The originally calm expression on the Golden Duke’s face looked like he was still pretending to be calm.
However, from the looks of it, they had already expected this to happen and everything was under their control.
!!
The main goal of taking the initiative to be stabbed by him was to lure the other party to reveal information.
Unfortunately, this ambitious fellow was unwilling to tell the truth when facing a dying person.
In the end, they even discovered the true identity of the Golden Duke.
“Alfred, all these years, what I admire the most is your meticulousness.”
“It’s really not easy to find a satisfactory housekeeper without you in the future.”
“Today is your last day as my housekeeper. Tell me, what’s the name of your faction? Why are you hiding in the Royal Court?”
The Golden Duke sighed and gave his last order.
In the current situation, Alfred was clearly holding a knife in his hand, and the Golden Duke’s heart had been pierced.
The former should be holding the latter’s life in his hands.
However, in terms of aura, it was completely the opposite.
“So what if you’re not the successor of the Human Emperor? Today is your death day!”
After tearing apart his true appearance, Alfred no longer had the elegance and composure of a housekeeper.
A rare look of panic appeared on his face. He exerted strength in his hand, wanting to twist the dagger and crush everything in the Grand Duke’s chest.
However, his wrist was stiff and he could not move at all.
Not only his wrist, but from head to toe, other than his eyeballs and mouth, the housekeeper of the Duke’s mansion could not move at all.
“What a pity. After you lost your elegance and composure, you no longer became meticulous.”
“Alfred, do you think you can see shadows in such dim light?”
The old housekeeper, who had stabbed his master in the back, suddenly recalled something and his eyes darted down desperately.
Sure enough, he saw a circle of shadows under his feet that was especially clear and dense.
Only then did he recall that the circle of shadows had unknowingly arrived at the Golden Duke’s feet.
It was the sun from before!
The reason why he released that sun was not to attack those prisoners but to take the opportunity to move the shadows!
The shadow beneath Alfred’s feet was undoubtedly Jiang Li!
It turned out that after the Fengdu City Lord tricked the group of Armored Trolls with longevity earlier, he met the Prime Minister of the Royal Court.
He had guessed that they would definitely take revenge on him. Therefore, he immediately made some preparations to guard against such a sudden situation.
It just so happened that with the help of the Divine Judgment Hall, the war between Fengdu City and the Ten Directions Region went very smoothly.
After killing a few Demon Kings at the beginning, the remaining fellows very obediently chose to surrender.
After all, they were not a match for the Golden Duke and the two Hall Masters to begin with and were surrounded by the experts sent by the Divine Judgment Hall.
They could not fight or escape.
Under the pressure, it was as if the entire world was targeting them.
If the cultivation world wanted to eliminate them completely, they naturally could only fight to the death and bite off a piece of flesh.
However, Fengdu City was a huge faction formed by demons and ghosts.
After becoming famous, this group of demons had the intention of forming an alliance or joining them.
Now that Fengdu City had offered an olive branch and was willing to let them live to officially take over, other than a few stubborn donkey spirits, the other demons decisively chose to abandon the darkness and join the light.
The Demon Kings who joined them became the best guides.
They more or less held some secrets about their neighbors.
Since they had already defected, they naturally had to pull the rest down with them.
Therefore, with their cooperation, the war ended much faster than expected.
Most of the time was spent on trivial matters like naming a large number of demons in the Ten Directions Region.
In the end, it only took less than two months before this poisonous tumor that was originally marked as a red danger on the map was forcefully removed by Fengdu City.
Therefore, Jiang Li simply called the Golden Duke back to help him.
Sure enough, he blocked a blade for him.
From the power of the dagger, even his main body would probably be injured.
On the ground, the shadow Jiang Li began to exert strength. He controlled Alfred and pulled out the dagger from Anduin Gold’s back bit by bit.
The dagger left his body, and the Golden Duke spat out a mouthful of blood. His body swayed twice before he barely stabilized himself.
If his status was displayed with digitized health points, his current health points would probably have fallen to less than half of his full value.
The power of that dagger was really a little too ruthless.
There were no other dangers around.
Only then did the true Jiang Li appear from his shadow and seize the dagger from Alfred.
Just looking at this dagger made him feel terrified. A sharp pain continuously came from between his brows.
This thing could definitely injure him, and it was not a light injury.
After using appraisal, Jiang Li immediately gasped.
The dagger here was actually called [Horse Poisoning Needle—Sealed]!
The appearance of this dagger was actually not the key. Instead, it was a seal that limited the power of the item inside.
