Chapter 174: Civil war! (2/2)

Lucien sped through the Raizen clan but to his greatest surprise he reached the gates of the Raizen clan, he was greeted by a large army dressed in black and red knight armors with their faces covered with their helmets. With just a glance Lucien could easily count a thousand of them and in front of the army was an old man with the same gentle smile on his face, using his walking cane to support his body.

Seeing Lucien's domineering figure, followed by his past achievements and his insane, murderous aura, even the thousand-man army couldn't help but feel anxious when facing such an enemy.

”Lucardo family head… If I may ask, why are you here?” Lucien said with an indifferent look on his face as his body descended from above.

He gently landed on the ground before walking towards the army fearlessly. With his hands placed at his back, countless black tattoos began surging around his body releasing scary wails and cries of pain. His eyes were showing no signs of emotions as they had already turned blood red, surging with strength and power.

”I suggest you pick your next words wisely, they may be your last!” Lucien said coldly the moment he was only a few breaths away from the Lucardo family head.

Hearing his words, the old man wasn't enraged, instead, he revealed a sly smile and let out a light chuckle while beads of cold sweat ran down his face. Even he found it hard to remain calm when faced with the demonic aura of the underworld.

”Why so serious young lad? Why the rush? Don't tell me you don't have some time to spare for this old time” The Lucardo family head said with a light chuckle but Lucien frowned even more.

”Are you not aware that the Royal capital has been attacked… It is our duty to go to the emperor's aid… Unless you are part of those who want him dead?” Lucien said as his eyes let out a violent light while his killing intentions exploded violently.

”I like you, Lucien… That is why I ask you to stay out of this… This is not a battle you can win....” The Lucardo family head said with a smile but this time his usually closed eyes were slightly open.

”Wrong answer! Rise!” Lucien stomped his feet on the ground and his shadow spread forth with over a thousand demonic beasts surging out of them.

In just an instant Lucien had over a thousand demonic beasts standing behind him, a strong army that would make anyone shiver in fear! Only now did those watching realize why Lucien didn't bother moving with an army or anything! It was simply because he was carrying an army within him at all times!

The army of the Lucardo family felt extremely nervous and some began taking slight steps back in fear. No matter how trained and equipped they are, they still couldn't stand against beasts that bear the oppressive aura of the underworld! Seeing this the Lucardo family head frowned for the first time in a long time.

He knew how much morale mattered in war and the army with the lesser morale is bound to crumble first. To even stand a chance against Lucien he needed his army to keep Lucien's demonic army at bay!

”Due!” The old man's eyes let out killing lights as his cane exploded, revealing a saber within!

His swinging action was extremely swift even for Lucien and on normal circumstances, Lucien had numerous techniques that can be used to dodge the attack but just like the Lucardo family head, he knew how important morale is in battle! Retreating now will only boost the morale of the enemy forces, making things even harder for him!

This is something even a fool would try to avoid!

”DON'T UNDERESTIMATE ME, OLD MAN!” Lucien growled with reddened eyes as his body turned to steel and he struck forward with his fist.

Peng!

The first attack was soon followed by countless Punches and saber attacks, so fast that their hands couldn't be seen anymore, only the sounds of the clashing attacks could be heard!
