Chapter 199: Chapter199-Order of Life
Order of Life!
As Owen felt the mystical [Order] radiating pure white life energy within his domain, a deep sense of joy spread across his face.
Though the [Order] appeared to be a palm-sized droplet, it held an overwhelming life force, far more intense than any river, lake, or sea!
Staring at this [Order], it was as if one could witness the revival of all things—lush greenery and boundless vitality.
Unlike the aggressive auras of the Order of Thunder or Order of Fire, the Order of Life was exceedingly gentle.
The pure white life energy emitted from the [Order] continuously flowed into his body, accelerating the healing of his injuries and hidden wounds.
It felt like a spring breeze caressing him, soothing and refreshing his entire body.
As his wounds rapidly healed, Owen grew even more satisfied with the Order of Life.
While his combat strength far exceeded others at his tier, and he had explosive powers from the Supreme Order and Obsidify, his recovery had always been a significant weakness.
Now, with the Order of Life, that shortcoming was remedied!
Moreover, within Owen’s [Order] domain, the birth of the Order of Life seemed to enhance the Order of Fire and Order of Thunder, causing them to become more volatile and powerful.
After getting accustomed to his newly strengthened body and refined mana, Owen suddenly sensed the presence of Dark Rose approaching, clearly in a rush to find him with urgent news.
Owen stood up and left the space.
As soon as Owen departed, Rachel, who had been sitting dazed, suddenly shuddered, her expression slowly returning to normal.
Moments ago, when the Order of Life was born within Owen, the pure life energy had also flowed into her body, making her feel as though she was floating on clouds, her mind in a dizzy haze.
It wasn’t until Owen left that she gradually snapped out of this strange sensation.
“What just happened?”
Rachel was bewildered, but when she examined her body through internal observation, a flash of shock crossed her face.
In her perception, a mysterious blood-red rune had suddenly emerged from her chest, radiating an irresistible allure.
Just looking at the rune, she could see her own desires and emotions reflected back at her—particularly lust, which made her blush with embarrassment.
Within the rune, it seemed as though a red bridal chamber was unfolding, waves of passion surging within. In the chamber, she saw herself, barely clothed, her snow-white skin exposed, while the man on top of her was none other than Owen…
Rachel’s heart raced in panic at the sight, and she noticed the blood-red rune was gradually merging into her body. Her skin became even more radiant and smooth, gleaming with a seductive allure.
Her figure also became more voluptuous, her curves straining against her dress, which seemed ready to burst at any moment. Her face flushed with a rosy tint, exuding a strong sense of enchantment.
The ancestral bloodline of the ancient succubus!
In an instant, Owen’s earlier mention of her bloodline power flashed through Rachel’s mind.
It seemed that when Owen had used her body to heal his injuries, he had accidentally unlocked her bloodline power!
…
Meanwhile, at the borders of Kyrik, the army led by General Stanley was launching a fierce assault.
After Owen had decided to take action against the Mausoleum, Stanley, following his orders, led the elite forces in a rapid strike on Kyrik’s border cities.
With Owen having destroyed four of Kyrik’s major cities, the entire country was in turmoil, and morale had plummeted.
Stanley’s army advanced with overwhelming momentum, cutting through the defenses like a hot knife through butter.
The troops of the Azure Kingdom, who had long harbored resentment toward Kyrik for years of oppression, were especially bloodthirsty. Not long ago, they had nearly been annihilated by Kyrik’s army.
Now, with Owen himself taking the fight to Kyrik, their morale surged to unprecedented heights.
In just a short time, they had captured ten border cities of Kyrik, achieving unprecedented success!
At this rate, it wouldn’t be long before they reached the northern capital that Owen had destroyed.
Once they passed that formidable stronghold, they could march straight toward Kyrik’s imperial capital!
The news of Owen killing the White-Brow Protector in Kyrik spread quickly, boosting the army’s morale to a new peak.
“General, the commander of White City has fled. We will take the city within a day at most!”
An aide rushed into the tent, kneeling before General Stanley to deliver the report.
“Excellent! At this pace, we’ll soon meet up with Mr. Owen!”
“We should accelerate our advance. While Mr. Owen is strong, Kyrik has deep reserves. If they rally against him, things could become dangerous for him.”
Charlotte spoke seriously.
Though she knew Owen was incredibly powerful, she was also well aware of how much Emperor Leslie valued him!
General Stanley nodded slightly,
“Send the order: advance quickly! Once White City is captured, we’ll rest briefly, then press on!”
With Owen holding back Kyrik’s elite forces and top fighters, Stanley was confident in capturing most of Kyrik’s border cities.
The soldier nodded and turned to relay the order.
However, just then, Charlotte, who had been clutching a jade pendant at her waist, suddenly gasped,
“Wait!”
Everyone in the tent turned to look at Charlotte in surprise, just as she frowned and said,
“Urgent news—Mr. Owen has abruptly left Kyrik’s imperial capital and is heading back to the Azure Kingdom!”
Hearing this, everyone was stunned.
Things were going so well—why would Owen suddenly leave and return to the Azure Kingdom?
“Miss Charlotte, what’s going on? Mr. Owen’s plans for Kyrik were carefully thought out. Why would he retreat now?”
As commander of the army, Stanley’s intelligence network was well-developed. He knew that Kyrik’s forces were in disarray, and abandoning this golden opportunity would make it difficult to achieve the same results if Kyrik had time to recover.
“I’m not sure yet, but Mr. Owen used the Angel Wings to retreat swiftly, so whatever’s happening must be incredibly urgent.”
Charlotte was unsure of the exact reason.
However, knowing Owen wasn’t one to act rashly, if he had abandoned the advantageous situation so abruptly, it had to be something serious.
…
Above Kyrik’s skies, a figure streaked across the horizon like a comet, covering miles in an instant, moving so fast it was nearly impossible to track with the naked eye.
All that could be seen were the massive white wings beating rapidly.
It was Owen, racing back to the Azure Kingdom.
Just after leaving his private world, Owen had received an urgent message that shook him to his core.
A mysterious figure had appeared in the Azure Kingdom and had attacked Duke Charles’ residence.
If it hadn’t been for Leslie’s timely intervention, Duke Charles’s fate would have been sealed.
Moreover, the mysterious figure had shown power beyond that of a master-tier mage!
The mages in the capital were no match, and the casualties were severe. Leslie was currently locked in battle with the mysterious foe!
Leslie is in danger!
This was Owen’s first thought upon hearing the news.
Even with his rapid advancement and skyrocketing battle strength, facing a grandmaster-tier mage—a power above master-tier—would require him to give his all and use his most secret techniques.
Leslie’s level was now below his, and even with the Dark Tower as her trump card, she would struggle against a grandmaster-tier mage.
The enemy had targeted Duke Charles right from the start, clearly indicating they were no ally.
Leslie, as she was now, would not stand a chance against a grandmaster-tier mage!
“Who is it?!”
As Owen frantically pushed his Angel Wings to their limit, speeding back toward the Azure Kingdom, he ordered Dark Rose to investigate the mysterious grandmaster-tier mage.
In the continent, master-tier mages were already near the peak of power, and grandmaster-tier mages were even rarer—beings on an entirely different level.
They could wield the power of the heavens and earth itself, and even with the Order of Ice, Leslie would be at a huge disadvantage.
Moreover, such powerful individuals were renowned across the continent, and even in Middle Earth.
Why had this one suddenly attacked the Duke’s residence and engaged Leslie in battle?
