My Waste Husband
Chapter 1257

Chapter 1257

A purple light shone bright in the night sky, which dispelled a small part of darkness.

There were civilians in the city who saw the purple light in the sky. They shouted to the sky, saying that the heavens have opened their eyes.

Everyone from the City Lord's Mansion and the Chu Family saw the purple light appear.

"They can't take it anymore!"

Placido and Knox shouted these words almost at the same time.

A figure in a black robe appeared in the sky above the Eastern City. He seemed to make his away across by stepping on the purple rays of light. The sky was filled with dark clouds. Outside of the walls, the massive black shadow seemed to feel somewhat threatened and kept staring at the figure in the air.

The man in the sky stretched out his arm. The moment he did that, all the purple light across the sky condensed, then disappeared immediately. The world fell into darkness once again, but the darkness only lasted for a second.

Within the next second, dazzling purple light flashed once more. The purple light formed a gigantic guillotine in the air, restraining the giant dark figure within the range of the guillotine.

A wave of violent aura spread throughout the air. The Demonic Beasts, that had been wreaking havoc, all stopped in their tracks at that moment, they were even trembling with fear!

The whole world seemed to turn silent at that moment.

With a crisp snap of a finger, the gigantic blade plunged towards the neck of the giant black figure.

While that happened, not a single sound was heard, nor were there any collisions of Qi. The purple blade went through the giant black figure's neck, and then disappeared.

One second...

Five seconds...

Ten seconds...

The silence ensued.

The demonic beast trembled, as did the practitioners in the city. The violent energy that filled the air was just terrifying.

Knox and Placido stared solemnly at the sky. They could sense the other party's strength.

After a full 20 seconds, the beasts who were originally trembling in fear roared in unison.

However, this time, their roars were no longer filled with violence, but fear.

The avian demonic beasts all shot up into the sky, flying out of the city in effort to escape.

As for the demonic beasts that moved on land, they too fought to flee the city, resulting in a complete mess. Each and every one of the demonic beasts was running with all its might.

Thunder flashed across the sky.

Outside the city, the head of the gigantic black figure was suddenly fell off its neck, just exactly like the child earlier.

Not a single drop of blood could be seen from the severed area of the figure's neck. It was completely sealed by a layer of Qi.

The enormous head fell from above and landed in the Eastern City. Several houses were smashed, and the whatever that remained of the black figure toppled backwards.

"Boom!"

A loud rumble came sounded from outside the city. It was so loud that the earth shook.

The dark clouds in the sky dissipated, and the purple light disappeared completely. However, the tiny image of the black robed figure was imprinted within everyone. It was him who had slain the Gigantic Demon and saved the Eastern City.

Almost at the same time, figures from the Chu Family and the City Lord's Mansion shot up to the sky. Seeing that this matter had been resolved, it was about the revealed themselves.

The Chu Family was led by Placido Chu, who brought a high-ranking official of the Chu Family along with him.

The Eastern City was led by Knox Colver. With him was General Anteo, donned in silver armour and armed with a silver spear, who also shot up into the sky.

Just when the experts from the two clans had just flown up into the sky, four streaks of purple light appeared out of thin air, heading straight for the four of them.

The four of their faces were filled with surprise, and they quickly defended themselves by harnessing their Qi.

Knox initially had thought that the robed figure hailed from the Chu Family, and Placido also thought the same for the Eastern City. However, when they saw that both parties were attacked, they were taken aback.

After repelling the attack, Knox spoke loudly, "We are grateful for your aid in saving Eastern City, Strong One. May I be introduced to your name?"

Placido immediately said, "I'm the Head of the Chu Family. Thank you for your help, Great Hero." "I have a few questions." Henry finally spoke. This was after he had attacked them. His voice was very soft, but it was very clear.

Knox could not understand Henry's attitude towards them. He did not dare to approach Henry because of the attack he had launched at them earlier. He cupped his fist from a distance and said, "I'm the lord of the Eastern City. We are listening."

The reason Knox had made the effort to reveal his identity was firstly, to let this person know who commanded Eastern City, and secondly, to make it clear for the people of the city that it was now up to the Colver Family to negotiate with the other party on behalf of Eastern City.

"Hah." A scornful laugh sounded. "The lord of Eastern City? Oh, lord. Enlighten me then, while the gigantic demon wreaked havoc, what was that Colver Family of yours doing?"

Knox was already prepared with a speech for a question like this, it was originally meant for dealing with the Chu Family, but he used it anyway, "Back then, large demons were also wreaking havoc in the city, and we..."

Before Knox could finish, Henry turned and looked at the direction of Placido. "What about the Chu

Family, what were you busy with?"

Having been ignored while being in the middle of his explanation, Knox was left stunned.

Placido answered, "The Chu Family had also come to face with large demons, back..."

"Bullsh*t!" Henry shouted angrily. This time, his voice rang loud like a bell, everyone could hear it clearly. This reply of his was filled with anger.

Henry stood in the air with a black robe draped over him. People could not see his appearance clearly.

Henry questioned harshly, "The Colver Family of yours governs Eastern City, yet when the demonic beasts wreak havoc within in, no experts arrived to handle the situation. Even right now, not a single trace of blood can be seen on you. Pray tell me, do you think the Colver Family deserves the right to govern Eastern City?"

Henry continued, "The Chu Family is the second largest force of Eastern City, yet when the demonic beasts were out wreaking havoc, they chose to shut themselves in. I am really curious about this behaviour of yours, what are your great families good for...?"

What were they good for?

The citizens of Eastern City were all shocked to hear those words.

These words sounded obvious that he intends to put the Eastern and Chu families out of power.

Knox's expression darkened. "Strong one, you have saved the lives of the citizens of Eastern City and slain the Gigantic Demon, I, Knox Colver, as well as the citizens of Eastern City are in your debt. However, this does not mean that you can just slander the Colver Family as you please."

"That's right." Placido chimed in. "The Chu Family are also citizens of Eastern City."

"Slander?" Henry's voice sounded a little scornful. "You mean to say that all of you were actually trying to fight the large demons back then?"

"Indeed." Knox nodded.

"So what have they become now?" Henry asked again.

Knox replied, "They have been slain."

"Was it that difficult to slay a large demon?" Henry questioned once more.

"Yes, it was." Knox replied. "The Colver Family had to give it our all."

"Oh?" Henry smiled. "If that is the case, this Colver Family of yours should be very exhausted by now, right? Well then, allow me to find out if the Colver Family had been going all out for Eastern City as you have said!"

"Crack!"

A bolt of lightning cut through the night sky, illuminating Henry's figure.

Immense amounts of purple radiance filled the sky once more, then formed a sword of Qj behind Henry.
