Luna already had a n, which was why she agreed so readily.


    Thus, Andrius was also at ease. “In that case, I’ll go to Kiyoto now and talk to the emperor.”


    The three of them had no objections.


    Then, Kate left, Dax went back, and Andrius set off.


    After Luna came back to Dream’s Waterfront, she immediately used the Dragon Manor’s secret


    channel and summoned the deputy master, Marcellus.


    “Master, what are your orders?” Marcellus bowed and asked Luna respectfully.


    Luna did not respond immediately.


    Her eyes flickered with a strange brilliance. After staring at Marcellus, she said. slowly, “I need you to


    do something for me. Something important.


    “Will you do it?”


    Something important?


    Marcellus paused for a moment and looked at the Dragon Manor Token in Luna’s hands. “Of course.


    Although I’m the deputy master of the Dragon Manor, I still need to obey the token. If the master


    commands it, even if it’s a death sentence or crossing the pits of hell, I will not so much as frown!”


    Meanwhile, Marcellus thought, ‘Old Hagstorm hasn’t sent any instructionstely. I wonder what task


    Luna is going to give me this time.‘


    “Is that so?” Luna stared at Marcellus and said in a chilling voice, “Good. Go back now and select some


    absolutely trustworthy elite matters to establish a secret force. From today onward, you’re the leader of


    the Shrouded Gate.


    “Also, you must all cut off ties with Old Hagstorm’s original force. Unless I permit it, you cannot have


    any contact with him!”


    As soon as Luna spoke, Marcellus raised his head in shock. He looked at her with eyes filled with


    disbelief.

    Leave the force and cut off ties?


    She was telling him to betray Old Hagstorm!


    Marcellus did not understand Luna’s order. This was a path of no return.


    “That’s…” His expression darkened as he said, “Master, Old Hagstorm has treated me with great


    kindness. I’ll die if you tell me to betray him…


    “I’m sorry, but I can’t agree to this matter!” Marcellus bowed deeply.


    Bzz…


    Just then, a cold and brutal aura suddenly swept over him. It was like a ferocious. beast that had been


    sleeping for thousands of years had awakened.


    The violent and bloodthirsty intent lingered without dissipating.


    Swoosh!


    Just as Marcellus was shocked, he felt his neck tighten.


    At some point, a slender hand reached over and grabbed his throat. There was no hint of warmth on


    the hand, only endless sharpness and suffocation!


    It was Luna. She stared at Marcellus with cold and deep eyes, the words she spoke carrying a


    millennium–old frost.


    “Either submit to me and live, or go to hell now.”


    As she spoke, the force in her hand suddenly increased.
