Skyfall City Lord

The newcomer was tall and burly, with a square face and deep, majestic tiger-like eyes. His long red hair cascaded casually over his shoulders, giving him a wild, unrestrained air.

This person was Morit, the City Lord of Skyfall City!

"City Lord!" the crowd below shouted in unison, full of respect.

It was clear that Morit was truly loved and respected in Skyfall City.

After all, Morit's contributions were indispensable to Skyfall City's current prosperity!

Furthermore, Morit was a man of peace with formidable strength, a Sixth Order War Emperor Peak. Of course, people outside didn't know he had already entered the War Emperor realm.

In fact, Morit had reached that level long ago.

Upon learning from the white-haired elder that his son had dared to flirt with an imperial princess, he was filled with rage.

Although he found it hard to believe he would be involved in such a matter, he didn't doubt the elder's words at all. He knew who that elder was... Thinking of this, Morit felt a wave of unease and solemnity.

Although he had reached Emperor Rank and was the lord of a city, appearing majestic and powerful, his son had failed to follow in his footsteps. His only son was like that, spoiled rotten by his mother since childhood.

Sigh! It seemed he would have to personally apologize to the princess and beg for her forgiveness.

However, as soon as Morit left his mansion, he sensed a violent energy fluctuation.

He rushed over immediately and saw that someone was fighting on the arena stage.

What surprised him was that one of the participants was his own Guard Captain, Clinton.

He greatly valued this Clinton. When he had gone to the Hundred Thousand Forest on business, he had inadvertently seen Clinton, then only a Fourth Order mid-stage, about to be killed by a Fifth Order low-stage Fierce Beast.

Initially, he hadn't intended to intervene. After all, many hunters who made a living by killing Fierce Beasts and obtaining Crystal Cores died at the beasts' mouths every day.

Therefore, he was accustomed to such events and didn't want to get involved. It had nothing to do with him. As an Emperor Rank expert, he had his own pride and detachment.

However, he noticed that Clinton could challenge opponents of a higher order, and his potential was extraordinary. This sparked his desire to recruit talent, which was why he saved him.

But Morit was astonished to see such a young boy fighting against his Guard Captain on the stage, and what's more, he was gaining the upper hand.

One had to know that although Clinton was only a Fifth Order Sect Master peak, his combat power was definitely stronger than that of an ordinary War Emperor expert.

War Emperor experts could be considered regional lords anywhere. He himself had been a War Emperor level expert back then and had directly become the City Lord of Skyfall City. Although there were other reasons involved, the status of a War Emperor expert was evident.

Morit raised one hand slightly towards the crowd below and said calmly, "Everyone, please disperse!"

Although many people wished to linger a while longer, they could only slowly disperse due to Morit's imposing presence. After all, the main spectacle had already concluded.

Morit turned his head, his stern, square face suddenly softening into a gentle expression.

He spoke kindly to Niya, who looked puzzled, "Little girl, this young man is currently suffering from energy backlash, so it's best if you don't disturb him."

Morit's eyesight was exceptional; he could tell at a glance that Chen Yun was suffering from energy backlash.

"Then what should we do? Please, save him!"

Upon hearing this, Niya immediately burst into tears, panicked. Then, she suddenly remembered that the person before her was the City Lord of Skyfall City, a powerful expert. She grabbed Morit's arm and pleaded.

Morit's mind didn't react for a moment.

The imperial princess was begging him! This... Although he was the City Lord of Skyfall City, he couldn't afford to offend her!

At this moment, Brian and the others also rushed over. Lia quickly went to support Niya, comforting her softly.

After looking at Niya and Chen Yun, Brian cupped his hands towards Morit.

He smiled and said, "Lord City Lord, I am Brian. My friend here, you see..."

Brian! Wasn't this the Second Prince?

He was quite familiar with the names of the imperial princes and princesses. Although Brian hadn't stated his surname, Morit could still confirm that this was the Second Prince.

Indeed, he was handsome and carried himself with extraordinary grace!

Seeing that Brian, as a prince of the kingdom, showed no arrogance and was instead amiable towards others, Morit felt a surge of admiration and his good impression of him grew significantly.

He quickly cupped his hands and said, "Young master, and you, little girl, please rest assured. This matter was caused by my wayward son. It is only right that I save this young man!

He then glanced at Ximu, who was hiding behind the already arrived City Guard Commander, looking terrified, and his anger intensified.

Morit roared at the City Guard Commander, "Take this unfilial son back!"

He then glanced at Clinton, who was also lying on the stage, and ordered, "Take Commander Clinton back as well, have him treated, and ensure he is well cared for!"

"Yes!" The commander's expression sharpened, and he bowed in response.

Immediately, he waved his hand, and two soldiers stepped forward to escort Ximu away.

"Father!" Ximu called out pitifully to Morit.

Looking at his son's pathetic state and then comparing him to Brian, Morit felt even more dejected. How could he have such a son!

Sigh! He let out a quiet sigh, adjusted his expression, and smiled at Brian and the others, "You must think less of me. I apologize for today's events. I will surely teach this unfilial son a harsh lesson later. Sigh! Truly, my family is unfortunate!"

Brian smiled slightly and cupped his hands, "Lord City Lord, there's no need to be concerned! I think it's more important to tend to my friend's injuries right now!"

"Oh! My apologies! Hehe!" Morit said with a apologetic smile.

Morit extended his right hand towards Chen Yun, who was writhing in pain but still propping himself up on the table with the War Hammer in his hand, stubbornly refusing to fall.

Instantly, an invisible wave spread out, forming a Spatial Shield that enveloped Chen Yun!

Then, Morit waved his large hand at the confused Bright and the others, saying loudly, "Let's go!"

Brian and the others felt a gentle, unfamiliar wave, and their bodies floated up uncontrollably. Morit's display truly stunned them.

Emperor Rank expert! The thought couldn't help but surface in their minds.

Morit paid no mind to their shock. Since the royal family already knew about his advancement to Emperor Rank, there was no need to hide it any longer.

With a jolt of his body, they all transformed into a stream of light, shooting towards the City Lord's Mansion.

Along the way, Brian couldn't stop looking at Morit's back, his eyes flickering thoughtfully.

Morit, of course, noticed Brian's gaze and sighed inwardly, a wry smile on his face.

Everyone felt a blur before their eyes, and in the blink of an eye, they were at the entrance of the City Lord's Mansion. This filled them with another wave of awe. Emperor Rank experts were indeed not to be trifled with!

Led by Morit, they went straight to the main hall.

Morit addressed the butler who was waiting nearby, instructing, "Bill, please entertain these guests for me!"

"Yes! City Lord!" the butler replied with a bow.

Morit smiled at the group, "Then I will first treat this young brother's injuries. Please wait here for a moment!"

Bright replied with a smile, "Saving him is the priority! City Lord, please proceed!"

At this moment, Niya hurried forward, looking at Chen Yun, who had already fainted and was being held by Morit from afar, with a face full of worry.

She said with emotion, "Uncle City Lord, you must heal Chen Yun!"

"Oh?" Morit raised an eyebrow and glanced at Chen Yun in his hand.

He smiled at Niya, "So this young man's name is Chen Yun! Hehe, little girl, don't worry, it's on me. Don't fret! Ah!" He gave Niya a meaningful look before leaving with Chen Yun.

It seems this Princess has fallen for this young man named Chen Yun! Alas! But the outcome is likely...

Brian had also long noticed that Niya had fallen for Chen Yun, which made him extremely worried.

After all, Niya was an imperial princess, and her marriage was not something she could decide on her own!

Although Chen Yun had extraordinary talent, he was not yet a strong individual. If he didn't have a powerful background, Niya and he would likely...

In less than a moment, Morit returned to the living room. This made everyone very puzzled. Could it be this fast? How much time has passed? Chen Yun suffered an energy backlash!

However, Morit's expression gave them a bad feeling!

Niya was the first to run up to Morit, grabbing his wrist, and asked anxiously, "Uncle City Lord! How is it? Is Chen Yun alright!"

The others also looked at him with anticipation.

Morit didn't mind Niya's impoliteness. He was very depressed right now. Seeing Niya's anxious expression, he could only shake his head awkwardly.

Morit's shake of the head caused everyone's expressions to change slightly. Niya was completely stunned, her delicate body trembling uncontrollably, looking as if she might collapse!
