Chapter 291 King Zephyr
Chapter 291 King Zephyr
Vicky's lingering anger was slowly dissipating, and her gaze wandered around the room.
She displayed a hint of allure, with a seductive smile playing on her lips.
As her anger had greatly mollified, she praised Millicent, "Madame, I absolutely love your plan!"
"If we can get Tim to mess with Priscilla. we'll definitely see an infuriated Gabriel!"
"I know with Gabriel's temper, he's bound to kill Tim!"
“Once Gabriel takes down Tim, regardless of whether the Jeff family had any secret intentions to collaborate with him, they won't reconcile for sure!" This tactic of sowing discord, although not particularly sophisticated, was incredibly effective.
It targeted Tim's true nature and played on Gabriel's temper.
When this plan succeeded, even if Gabriel realized it was a trap, he would still fall right into it.
"Great idea!" Leland and Dawn both praised Millicent repeatedly.
They both thought Millicent's strategy was brilliant.
"Let's proceed according to Madame Seraphina's plan. Bring everyone in!"
Vicky stood up and gracefully walked down from the high platform chair symbolizing her position as clan head. In no time, most of the top members from the clan came into the hall.
Crow, Fat Boy, Lord Barbicz. and even Lord Water-all of them were present.
"Lady Barnes, I'm back!" Lord Water shouted loudly as he wiped his sweat. "I've successfully taken over the territory of the Southern Heaven Association!"
Because things had gone smeothly, he had taken a break with his men before returning slightly later.
But whether he returned early or late, his meritorious deeds were undeniable!
Crow, who had been wounded, had a gloomy expression.
Lord Water's jubilant demeanor was a mock of his defeat.
He was in an extremely bad mood at this moment, and when he compared himself to Lord Water, he couldn't help but feel inferior. Vicky gave a charming smile, nodded in approval, and praised, "Lord Water, you did very well. That territory is now yours!"
Even though Vicky knew the real reason for Lord Water's victory, the result still deserved commendation.
"Thank you, Lady Barnes!" Lord Water grinned.
With a sidelong glance, he looked down at Crow, who was nursing his wound. Tonight, he had successfully outperformed that bastard.
"Lady Barnes, I don't accept this!" Crow couldn't contain his frustration any longer and yelled, "The territory that Lord Water took over was unopposed. Sebastian willingly handed it to Lord Water! It's so strange? Why did Sebastian and that wretched woman Matilda ambush me?”
"I really suspect that Lord Water conspired with Matilda and preemptively revealed our plan for tonight!”
"Many people witnessed Lord Water having a friendly conversation with Sebastian, and Sebastian even came out to see him off, shaking hands in an affable manner!”
"This is clearly a premeditated conspiracy! I request a thorough investigation into Lord Water!"
The moment he said this, the whole council chamber fell into silence.
Lord Water's eyes widened with anger, and sweat beads formed on his forehead
He retorted, "You're talking nonsense! You lost in battle and can't bear it, so you shift the blame to me. You're just a waste!" "Lady Barnes, don't listen to Crow's attempts to sow discard. I've always been loyal to you and Ghostly Purgatory Hall!"
“Your sweat on your face has already betrayed you. If you hadn't joined Matilda, why would you be nervous?" Crow persisted. arguing against Lord Water about his sweat.
Lord Water seemed a bit tongue-tied, becoming somewhat stuttered when agitated.
He defended himself, "My face is already sweating because of my kidney deficiency. What are you so nervous about? If you hadn't betrayed us and sided with Matilda, why would you be so anxious?"
"That's enough!” Vicky shouted, stopping the two men's argument.
She was becoming irritated once again
Her angry shout silenced both Crow and Lord Water.
"My mood has already been ruined once tonight. If you make my mood unpleasant for the second time. I'll make sure both of you end up disabled!” As the words fell. both Lord Water and Crow fell silent.
In the past, there were a subordinate loyal to Vicky who hadn't performed well and had offended her.
And then the man's manhood was eliminated without mercy.
This event left many with lingering fears.
Even as a woman, Vicky was capable of what most men couldn't do and her ruthlessness could be extremely dominating. This quality was precisely what allowed her to intimidate so many high-ranking clan members.
If she wanted someone dead by three in the morning, they wouldn't live to see five!
The council chamber was utterly quiet, everyone waiting for Vicky to speak.
But just then, a burst of white smoke suddenly rushed into the chamber and quickly spread throughout the room. Subsequently, a jet-black coffin flew in with a whoosh.
Crimson light flickered, and the atmosphere became eerie.
Sinister laughter echoed from behind the coffin.
Two figures emerged from the coffin
One was a man in a black robe, holding a cane wrapped in white paper.
He wore a tall, pointed hat with the word "Black" on it
The other figure was a woman in a white robe, exuding an enchanting and seductive aura.
She also wore a pointed hat with the word "White" on it and cackled ominously while holding a cane wrapped in white paper. All the members of the Gumoldur Clan in the room were taken aback, but they quickly formed two rows, standing respectfully. Even the three wise elders who were sitting down stood up.
Vicky, swaying her voluptuous figure, walked towards the coffin and respectfully greeted it. "I, Vicky Barnes, clan head of the Gumoldur Clan, pays my respects to King Zephyr and the Black and White Emissaries.”
All the people in the council chamber followed Vicky, saying, "It is an honor to be in your presence, King Zephyr and the Black and White Emissaries!" Their voices were respectful and in unison
The appearance of one of the Ten Purgatory Kings was undoubtedly frightening for ordinary people.
It was like the opening scene of a horror movie.
However, those from the Ghostly Purgatory Hall were no strangers to this.

From the “Second" character on the coffin, they could tell that this was King Zephyr, the second-ranked Purgatory King.
As one of the Ten Purgatory Kings, King Zephyr held a higher status than Vicky, the clan head
Even though in recent years, the Ghostly Emperer had fallen in battle and a new emperor had not yet been established: and the Ghostly o Purgatory Hall had been divided, with mmany sub-clans not fully © complying with the centra authority, when true high-ranking members arrived, no one from any‘sub-clan dared to be the first to disrupt the rules.
The headquarters still existed, the top figures were still there, and the overwhelming combat strength of the Ghostly Purgatory Hall was still present. All these factors continued to intimidate everyone.
The Black and White Emissaries remained silent. In the presence of King Zephyr, the second-ranked Purgatory Kings, they had no right to speak.
The pitch-black-coffin then made a dull sound, aiid it said, "We have come to Gumnoldur City this time <> becausewe have received orders~ from King of the Underworld. We are hereto assist Clan Head Vicky in handling clan affairs." ©
"Starting today, the Black and White Emissaries and I will remain in Gumoldur City until we eliminate Gabriel!" "That's great. You have my gratitude!" Vicky was overjoyed that King of the Underworld had not forgotten her. King Zephyr was among the top of the Sky List in terms of combat power.
And the Black and White Emissaries were also exceptionally powerful
With these three assisting her, the upcoming battle with the Jeff family, the Southern Heaven Association, and Gabriel would be much more likely to win.
“Alright, I shall take I leave!”
King Zephyr's disappearance was as hasty as his appearance.
The Black and White Emissaries withdrew behind the coffin, and the smoke gathered before the coffin floated away. Before long, the entire council chamber returned to its original state, devoid of the ethereal smoke.
It seemed as if King Zephyr and the Black and White Emissaries had never been there.
Vicky twerkedssack to her high seat, and said, sratting, ' ‘It's really great. Headquarters finally sent someone> to assist\us. With King Zephyr ang the Black and White Emissaries' helpitg us, our strength has greatly increased" 6
“Lord Barbicz, you stay. The rest of you, please leave for now. We have a major battle in the next few days. so get ready.” "For the next battle, I don’t want anyone to be defeated again. Do you understand?” Vicky's soft-spoken words carried an air of dominance.
"Understood, Lady Barnes!" The crowd shouted in unison, not daring to slack off.
