Chapter 5580
As he spoke, Prince Auten cast a glance at the baby peacefully asleep with a smile. "What
a beautiful family of three. I'm so envious!"
Heather's face flushed as she scrambled to clarify. "Oh, this isn't our baby."
Just as the words rang through the air, Ambrose had finished the fish he was eating, and
said to Heather, "I've rested up enough, Heather. Let's go." As he spoke, he cast another
wary glance at Prince Auten.
This man was striking up a conversation on purpose. He definitely had ulterior motives.
Had this been before, Ambrose would be sure to sternly tell Prince Auten to be on his way.
Yet right now his internal energy had not restored yet, and he would have a tough time
fighting this battle.
This was why Ambrose tried his best to leave at once with the baby, not wanting to speak
too much to Prince Auten.
Alright!
Heather called out, sweeping the baby into her arms before walking away with Ambrose.
Prince Auten squinted at the sight, moving forward to stop them.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtYet just then, a powerful aura exploded into the air. It was followed by a figure moving
quick as lightning, halting Ambrose in his path altogether.
He was clad in gold armor, radiating gusto and power with a crazed glint in his eyes.
It was Zeke.
Just a few hours ago, Antigonus had used the Blood Sacrifice Formation to collide with the
Battle of the Star Formation, letting out a terrifying force that had allowed him to make a
swift escape upon injuring Master Magaera. Zeke had been hot on Antigonus' heels then,
nothing but avenging his brothers on his mind.
Yet Antigonus was still the Archfiend, and was far from easy to catch even despite being
wounded. He had taken all but half an hour to leave Zeke behind.
Zeke was furious over this. Upon trying to search for Antigonus' whereabouts and failing,
he moved to return to Master Magaera at the Hidden Hero Sect. Yet on his way back he
saw Heather and Ambrose, and did not hesitate to stop them in their path.
Crap!
Just then, Ambrose cursed at the sight before him inwardly.
He hadn't even been able to lose the stranger behind, and here the Four Profound
Heavenly General was. Just his luck.
Ambrose put on a cold, unaffected expression at the thought as he said to Zeke, "What are
you getting at?"
What was he getting at?
Zeke let out a soft chuckle. "Where do you Hidden Hero Sect scum think you're trying to
go?"
He knew that he was sure to be punished by Master Magaera for going after Antigonus on
his own, and thought he would capture Heather and Ambrose to make up for his
wrongdoings.
Ambrose frowned at the answer, gripping his Tyrant Hammer.
Just then, Heather stepped forward as she said to Zeke," Please don't be mistaken. We
aren't part of the Hidden Hero Sect."
Heather was extremely nervous then. She knew that Ambrose was still pretty weak then,
and would be no match for Zeke. Thus she tried to find an excuse to fob him off.
Ha ha...
Zeke could not help but laugh out loud at the words, speaking in a mocking tone. "Do you
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmreally take me to be a fool? Yes, you aren't part of the Hidden Hero Sect- but you've
fraternized with them countless times.”
As he spoke, Zeke cast a glance at both Ambrose and Heather as he spoke. "You're the
master of the Elysium Gate, and you're the princess of the Sea Mackie Clan. I'm right,
aren’t I? You and the Carters have spent the past year hiding in the Hidden Hero Sect to
avoid being hunted down by the Heaven Watcher, haven't you?"
All at once, Ambrose and Heather could not respond.
Yet Prince Auten's chest thudded in shock from where he was as he looked Ambrose up
and down with a rapidly darkening gaze.
The master of the Elysium Gate?
Wasn't the master of the Elysium Gate in the Nine Continents Darryl Darby? Why was it a
young man now?
Wait, unless they were related? Could this be Darryl's son?
Realizing this, Prince Auten smirked coldly.
He had pretty good luck, he supposed. He couldn't find Darryl, but had ran into his son.
Just then, over on Ambrose's end.
"Ho ho..."
Zeke smirked coldly at Ambrose and Heather's silence. "I wouldn't fight back if I were you,
and just give up. Come with me to see Master Magaera, and await your sentence."
