Severin stood in front of the airship and looked down at the royal city. The formation of the city was flashing brightly. He raised his hand and input his mana into the Sumoon to speed it up.
When Sumoon was near the city, Diane and the other three women were ready to battle. Their bodies were stiff and tense.
Yet, the peaceful city got everyone feeling strange.
"Severin, didn't Mister Amethyst inform us that the devil cultivators had surrounded the royal city? Where are those devil cultivators? I don't see any of them." Diane was puzzled and astonished.
In fact, Severin found it strange too. He quickly released his divine sense and covered the entire area of the city and also the proximity outside of the city. However, he only found a few devil cultivators.
Despite feeling doubt, he quickly accelerated the speed of the Sumoon and reached the sky above the royal city.
As Sumoon arrived in front of the gate, a barbaric cultivator asked vigilantly, "Who is it?"
"I'm Severin from the Grandiuno Sacred Land. This is the token. Inform your king immediately!" Severin threw a token that represented his identity to the barbaric cultivator.
The barbaric cultivator was on duty to guard the city wall. He quickly transmitted the message back to the golden tent. Once he obtained permission from Allen, he quickly opened the formation.
When Allen knew Severin had arrived, he quickly brought Tristram and the elders of the clan to welcome Severin. As they arrived at the city gate, Allen looked at the Sumoon hovering above the sky and saw Severin. He said happily, "Mister Severin, welcome! Please come in!"
Severin brought his wives and dozens of disciples into the city. He cupped his hand when he stood in front of Allen and greeted, "King Allen, I hope I'm not too late."
"Hahaha. Of course not!" Allen laughed out loud.
Seeing how Heath had the mood to crack a job, Severin chuckled and felt relieved.
After a short brief of pleasantries, Allen said, "Come on, Mister Severin, let's talk more inside."
After that, Severin and his group were invited into the city and the golden tent. When they entered the tent, Severin noticed there were signs of battle, especially from the broken roof.
Allen sat on his throne and took out the spatial bag Kieron sent over. He said with much respect, "Severin, thank you for saving me and my people. You are our savior. If you did not kill Tomos and Sachin, the devil cultivators that had besieged the royal city would have broken into the city gates ages ago. Surely they were not going to return the loot they gathered during the war. These are the treasures the devil cultivators return to me. I shall give them to you now."
Severin was stunned to hear that. Later, he roughly understood what went on when Allen explained further.
