Chapter 783: Two Guardian KingsTranslator: Yukidaruma Translations Editor: Yukidaruma Translations

At the square which had the color of white jade, the Gold Mage King looked up toward the blood-colored vortex above his head without blinking, as if all of his attention was being drawn to it.

Aside from Charlot’s group, there were also several tens of other experts. Additionally, new experts were being transferred in every now and then.

Everyone was wary of each other, and no one dared to get close to that blood-colored vortex. Moreover, even the weakest among them were second transition Conferred Knights. Some of them knew each other and even had feuds between them, but in this strange environment, no one dared to make a move.

Moreover, with the Gold Mage King standing in the center, who would dare to make a move in front of him?

Yue Shan frowned and asked, “Where is this place?”

Charlot shook his head and did not say anything as he looked at that blood-colored vortex. From his memories, that was the center of the ritual, where the evil god’s clone would be born.

At the next moment, a white-haired old man spoke up. It was the Beast God that Charlot’s group had encountered earlier.

The Beast God looked at the Gold Mage King and grinned, saying, “Gold Mage King, your Mage Association is going to summon the evil god. An existence like that isn’t something we can think about. The reason I’m here today is only to snatch some of the royal family’s treasures. I have no intentions of making enemies with the Mage Association.”

Despite saying that, the Beast God’s gaze was filled with greed when he looked at that blood-colored vortex.

After hearing his words, the others also chimed in to express their agreement. Some of these experts exuded strong domineering auras, while others displayed great valiance. There were also some who had very eerie appearances. However, when they were facing the Gold Mage King, none of them dared to step up and go against him.

‘Hmph, something like the evil god ritual should be conducted in secret and yet so many people have found out about it.’

‘Someone must have leaked the news.’

‘It’s either that the Church of Universal Truth wants to assemble people to stop it, or the Mage Association leaked the news to gather blood sacrifices.’

Most of the people present were elites from different factions or the Empire’s Knights, all of whom had gathered many years of experience in the battlefield. None of them were fools. Although they had come here, tempted by the evil god’s power and the royal family’s treasures, all of them were thinking of benefiting from the fights being fought by the other people.

‘The Beast God, Night Sovereign, Abyss Knight, Ominous Demon…’ When he saw the appearance of the many experts who had gained fame a long time ago, Yue Shan felt astonished as well as regretful that he had gotten involved in this complicated situation.

He looked at Charlot and spoke with great hatred, “What a good place you’ve brought us to!”

Charlot laughed bitterly and said, “Don’t worry, it’ll be fine.”

He looked at Yue Xianru. The beautiful young lady’s countenance had turned pale. Her tender and fair forehead had furrowed creases, and her eyes filled with great terror.

Charlot knew that even without him, everything would still bode ill for Yue Shan’s group. However, he still felt a pang of guilt.

Just then, another two streams of light soared up in the square as two more people entered.

As these two people appeared, the Gold Mage King’s gaze finally showed some change. He looked at the two of them, “You’re finally here?”

The two people, who had just appeared, were wearing platinum-colored long robes. Their long white hair seemed to glitter with a faint white glow, and their red eyes seemed just like embedded rubies which had the waves of a volcano seething in them.

Charlot knew that these were the symbols of the Church’s aristocrats—the God’s Descendants 1 . In particular, the white glow on their hair and the sparks in the eyes were symbols of pure-blood God’s Descendants. It was said that even if they did not go through any cultivation from their birth to their deaths, they would forever maintain their appearances from their younger days.
