My Waste Husband
Chapter 1173

Chapter 1173

Verrall held the iron sword in his hand. "Henry, although you are a disciple of Immortal Lu, but I shall not allow you to hurt my young master. I'm sorry!"

Verrall swung his sword after Henry struck. His movements were way faster than Henry's. He made his move much later than Henry, yet he landed it before Henry could, completely deflecting the purple rays of Henry's sword.

Henry's purple sword dissipated once more. Staring at Verrall who stood in front of him, Henry was shocked. Since he had stepped into the Divine Realm, he possessed a new level of power, which even gave Henry the impulse to fight against the world.

However, when faced with Verall, a thin, hunched old man with an ordinary iron sword in his hand, Henry felt as if he had come to face an insurmountable mountain.

Verrall deflected Henry's blow so casually, it even felt flawless, Henry could not find a single opening to land a strike.

Henry's eyes narrowed slightly. "He broke the rules by using Qi in front of the ordinary, and even used it against them, yet you still want to protect him? You have lived for so many years, you should be clear with the rules of the World of Qi practitioners."

Verrall nodded. "Yes, that's true, but the young master shall not be touched!"

Verrall's reply was filled with a sense of dominance, sounding as if Joselito could still be pardoned even if he committed the greatest crime in the world.

Joselito stood behind Verrall and looked at Henry smugly as he continued making gestures to irritate Henry.

Henry ignored Joselito. He knew that if he wanted to kill this man, he had to first take down Verrall. "Do you know that the act of protecting him is against the rules of the World of Qi practitioners and making him a public enemy of the entire world?"

"So what?" Verrall lowered his sword. "If he ends up as a public enemy, so be it. I, Verrall, have pledged my entire life to the young lord of Western Xia. So what if he's an enemy of the world?"

Henry shouted, "You might be able to protect him for now, but you can't protect him forever!"

"I'm just a bag of old bones, I can't do that much thinking." Verrall shook his head slightly. "All I know is no one shall touch so much as a single hair of my young master as long as I, Verrail, live!"

Verrall spoke with a strong air of confidence. It was the sword strike of the Paramount realm that gave him such confidence.

"Excuse me, both of you!" Outside the cloth cover, a carefree voice sounded. "This part of the city is bustling, people are all over the place. May I request that the both of you put your weapons away for now, I am going to remove this cloth cover and come in."

As soon as he finished speaking, the cloth cover was suddenly opened. Gardiner, appeared in beach shorts and flip-flops, his hair was a mess and his facial hair was left untrimmed.

A few Reapers looked at Henry.

Henry waved and said, "Send my wife back first."

The Reapers who were in the uniforms of security guards nodded and quickly left.

Gardiner said with a smile, "Henry, looks like you don't trust us from Section Nine, to still insist on having your lady to be escorted away."

Gardiner's words seemed to be directed at Henry, but in fact, they were meant for Joselito and Verrall, announcing that Section Nine was on Henry's side.

Henry shook his head. "If I had trusted you people of Section Nine completely, I fear that my wife would already have been assaulted."

Gardiner looked a little embarrassed. He turned to look at Verrall and said, "The heritage of Western Xia has always been buried in the depths of the Emperor's Mausoleum. Since the olden days, all the years of news about the heritage of Western Xia went by in silence. Now that the descendant of Western Xia has appeared, you, the tomb keeper have also once again picked up your sword. It would seem to me that the heritage the Western Xia has been unearthed. Could this be related to the underground palace of Yinzhou City?"

After Verrall sheathed his sword, he stood with his hands clasped behind his back. "The underground palace is also part of the heritage of Western Xia."

"Hah." Gardiner chuckled. "Looks like Section Nine has disturbed the peace of the ancestors of Western Xia. I, Gardiner, shall first apologise to the descendants of the Western Xia. However, it doesn't matter if it's a country or a simple house, rules are rules, and that goes for the World of Qi practitioners too. Today, you, descendant the Western Xia, used Qi in front of ordinary people and even assaulted them with it. Neither the Section Nine of the Yan Xia nor the Recluse Association will let this off the hook. Three days from now, all parties shall be gathered. The offender shall be interrogated in court. The absence of the offender, shall automatically be charged with mutiny, and the heritage of Western Xia shall never see the light of day!"

As soon as Gardiner finished, he turned around and left, not giving Verrail any opportunity to speak.

"Who is this? How arrogant! Kill him at once, you old thing!" Joselito ordered from the back of Verrail.

Verrail shook his head. "Young master, for the sake of the heritage of Western Xia, please endure this for a while. We'll talk about this after three days. It's now time to go back."

"Go back? No way!" Joselito swung his arm violently and said, "I must sleep with that woman today!"

Henry's eyes flickered murderously.

"Young master, let's go." Verrall grabbed Joselito's arm and walked away.

Joselito was completely unable to resist him. He cursed at Verrall while being dragged away.

Henry looked at the back of Verrall as he left. After all that he had experienced, Henry did not blame Verrall for taking advantage of him. Henry could only blame himself for being careless. There were no absolute rights or wrongs in this world, it was always about different standpoints, and the standpoint of whoever that emerged victorious, would stand for justice!

Henry did not care how powerful Verrail was or how strange Verrall's sword was. All he knew was, besides the Li Clan that tortured Jenny to the verge of madness, a new name had been added to his kill-list!

Henry recollected his gaze and suddenly noticed the three figures that appeared before him.

"Ernest Jiang of the Jiang family!"

"Branley Bai from the Bai Family!"

"Soul Ji of the Ji family!"

The three figures, cupped their fists and greeted Henry in unison, "We're honoured to meet you, King of Hell."

Henry looked surprised. "Why are you here? Also, your auras have become quite strange. I did not notice the three of you approaching."

Ernest, carried a strange cylindrical object wrapped in rags on his back, no one could make out whatever that was within it, which attracted strange looks from those who passed by. He said to Henry, "My lord, our ancestors know that the heritage of Western Xia is about to be unearthed, and sent us to assist you. This time, we have arrived with our weapons."

Ernest was not the only one with a strange object behind his back, Soul and Branley did too, but it was all wrapped up and was hard to identify.

Hearing this, Henry was shocked. "You've arrived with troops! Your families have announced an order of arrest?"

Henry's question caused Ernest and the other two to look at each other, the expressions visible with seriousness.

Soul said to Henry, "An order like this is extremely rare. Our families have never been blessed with such fortune. However, due to the severity of the situation, our ancestors made an exception and allowed the three of us to bring our troops here. The unearthing of the heritage of Western Xia shall lead to turmoil. The weapons we have brought with us shall be of assistance to you, My lord."
