Rebirth: City Sovereign

From the Command Room where the skylight was opened, an angry voice came out from an EU representative.    

"I know."    

Barrett sat in the main command seat of the cruise ship and answered calmly.    

"You know my ass, I'll tell you what you did. You removed all of English Channel's navy, and gave that animal, who thinks nothing of human life, a big permit. Are you crazy?"    

Hearing the furious curses coming out from the communication device, Barrett did not have a single reaction.    

"Representative Kurt, I only did what I thought was the right thing to do."    

The representative on the other side of the communication device was startled when he heard Barrett's unexpected answer. After about ten seconds, his voice came out again from the communication device.    

"Heh heh, Barrett, you are living longer than ever. You even dare to say such presumptuous words? A devil who sank a French cruiser of the North Sea, let him go if you want, who gave you the authority to do so, is the order of the highest! "    

"If that beast massacred the innocent on Continental Europe, would you be able to take on this responsibility? This is removing your position as general, something you wouldn't be able to bear even if you apologized with your life. "    

Barrett just sat there and did not say another word.    

"..." Is that your answer? I see. "    

"The Council will continue to request your removal from office, and you will pay a heavy price for your dereliction of duty."    

Then, the communication was unilaterally hung up. Inside the Command Room, other than the ceiling that was continuously being smashed by Ye Kai being blown into the howling sea breeze, there was no other sound at all.    

Barrett lit up a cigar and felt the nicotine revolving in his lungs. Only after a long while did he slowly open his mouth.    

"In order to protect a madman who had killed countless people, I had to mobilize the entire English Channel of the fleet. I have truly lost my composure."    

In the council chamber, in a lounge.    

When they appeared in front of the Europeans, they were all conscientious members of the European Union. When they gathered together in a place that no one noticed, they were the most elite assassins of the Hades Palace.    

"Looking at Barrett's attitude, it's impossible to stop that guy from entering Continental Europe."    

After Kurt finished talking with Barrett, he gathered these few people together and started discussing about countermeasures.    

"I've already contacted Maude just now. He should have already started evacuating."    

Another representative said with an ugly expression. Kurt nodded and said.    

"I think it's time to think about what happened after Maude was killed."    

"If Maude was really killed by the White-Clothed Sword Immortal, that Lord might return from the sect."    

When Kurt finished speaking, all the representatives in the resting room revealed looks of horror.    

"How is that possible? As far as I know, that lord has not appeared in public for dozens of years."    

One of the representatives trembled as he spoke, rebutting Kurt's words.    

Ben just shook his head, his face pale.    

"He has already killed Ben Wang. If Maude also died in the White-Clothed Sword Immortal's hands, the most pure bloodline of the family would disappear. Considering the results, it is highly probable that the lord came out of the mountain."    

"If Maude dies and that lord comes out of the mountains, then he will be the entire France... No, it will be the disaster of the entire Continental Europe! "    

Fort Valevicant, France.    

The baroque castle of Valevicant was located in the French province of Man, about fifty-five kilometers southeast of Paris.    

This castle was once Louis XIV's Minister of Finance, Nicholas Fu Kai's official residence.    

After Fukai was arrested by Louis XIV out of jealousy, the castle was abandoned. A few hundred years later, Maude's Cursed Family took over this place and used it as their private property to be renovated, allowing the most precious line of descendants in the family to rest and relax.    

Buying a castle for only a small portion of the family members to use, the family was worthy of being called the most terrifying family of the three giants. Their financial strength and influence could be seen.    

In the castle courtyard, Maude was carrying a wine cup in his hands, not saying a word. After Emma and Grattoni left, he had been sitting here alone, no one knew what he was thinking about.    

Du, du.    

The phone on the table shook, Maude put down his wine cup and opened the phone's screen.    

The caller was a member of parliament from his family in the European Union.    

But at a time like this, why would he call me?    

Thinking about this problem, Maude pressed the answer button.    

"Hey, it's me, what's the matter?"    

Ignoring his question, the other party didn't even greet him and just blurted out a word.    

"Quick, flee."    

"What?"    

Hearing the other party's words, Maude subconsciously asked.    

"That fellow broke through the Northern Sea Fleet, the English Channel Fleet, and has already stepped onto the Continental Europe!"    

The other party's words were scattered, but Maude immediately understood what he meant. Both of his eyes were opened wide, and he did not know how to reply.    

He had only been back in France for a few hours, and that fellow had already broken through two maritime barriers and stepped on the Continental Europe?    

"I …"    

Boom!    

Before Maude could finish his sentence, a loud noise came from outside Valevicant Castle. Maude put down the phone, raised his head and looked towards the direction of the sound.    

At the very top of the castle, a man dressed in white held a Flaming Longsword in his hand, and smashed the curse Magic Formation that was protecting the entire castle into pieces like glass!    

"Maude, get out here to die!"    

The next second, the man appeared in front of him. The burning tip of the sword was pointing at his forehead and rushing at him with a speed of three Mach.    

The silver chain became pitch-black in his hand. Maude took out a mended magic shield and raised it up towards the direction of the Flaming Longsword.    

Dong!    

The Flaming Longsword stabbed the shield accurately, the red flames engulfed the entire castle manor in an instant and the scorching energy attacked Maude's entire body. He felt that he was about to be melted by the overbearing heat.    

Maude maintained his defensive position with his shield, and stared straight at the white robed young man in front of him, he gritted his teeth and spoke.    

"White-Clothed Sword Immortal, are you crazy!?"    

"For a mere trash with five Youth Training Team, you actually chose to cross the North Sea to take my life even if you were to provoke the entire EU!"    

Not to mention a legend like Ye Kai, even Maude, who had reached the level of an advanced Yuan Dan Stage, would be considered as an ant in front of a Yuan Dan Stage cultivator, so Maude had never placed their safety in his eyes.    

Maude was really unable to understand why Ye Kai would go through the entire North Sea and ignore the European Union's negotiations for the sake of five Youth Training Team members who only had the strength of Dispersing Strength and were not worth mentioning, break through the two maritime barriers of the French cruiser and the British Navy and come to this French castle to kill him.    

He was simply a madman!    

Facing Maude's berserk clamor, Ye Kai merely snorted coldly, then used his left hand, which was holding onto the Flaming Longsword, to increase his strength by a bit.    

Boom!    

The overbearing scarlet flames unleashed a huge impact, sending Maude, who was holding onto his shield, flying more than ten metres away. After rolling on the ground, he suddenly bounced up, and embedded half of his body into the castle walls.    

"Cough, cough!"    

Last night, the left side of his chest was still faintly hurting from being pierced by the Red Crystal Longsword. He rolled down from the city wall in a sorry state, spitting out large mouthfuls of blood while coughing continuously. The shield also showed clear cracks on its surface, so if he continued to receive Ye Kai's attack, it would basically be shattered to pieces.    

Looking at Maude who was bent on the ground, Ye Kai's dark green eyes emitted a cold killing intent, and used a voice that Maude could hear to speak slowly.    

"In your eyes, they are trash, but in my eyes, your Curse Family, and even the entire Hades Palace, are not even trash! I will definitely make you pay with your life! Even if you escape into the universe, I will still kill you in space! "    

After saying that, Ye Kai's left hand raised the Flaming Longsword's sword tip, pointed it at the man who was on the ground coughing blood, and thrusted towards him as if ignoring the gravity.    

Clang!    

However, just as the Flaming Longsword was about to strike the man's chest, a steel shield blocked the tip of his sword.    

Although the impact did not penetrate the shield, it still sent the person who blocked his attack flying more than ten meters away. It was only when the tall and big man landed steadily on the ground that Ye Kai could clearly see what was blocking his sword tip.    

It was not a shield, but a Mechanical Arm made of a special alloy.    

The Tall Man watched in shock as he noticed that there was a big hole in his arm where the Flaming Longsword had used it to block his attack. The man saw Ye Kai's expression and slowly spoke.    

"Maude, this is the White-Clothed Sword Immortal? "He really is powerful."    

Soon after, in a deserted corner of the manor, a seductive woman with long, fiery red hair appeared out of nowhere.    

"So you are White-Clothed Sword Immortal. You are even more handsome than I imagined."    

"Comrade?"    

Ye Kai coldly said as he looked at the two people standing in front of Maude.    

"I will definitely kill Maude. Those who leave will not stay."    

"All who remain will be cut down!"
