Toby dispatched a number of his soldiers to keep a close eye on the Dragon Pass. In order to avoid being exposed, he
specifically told them to camp at a far distance. Unfortunately, the soldiers stayed so far back that they couldn't see clearly what
Shawn and his people were doing outside the city gates. Because of that, they thought they were simply cleaning up the
battlefield.
"Your Highness, at dawn, Shawn brought some soldiers to the battlefield to clean it up. They threw all the corpses and
amputated limbs into a pit and buried them there," reported one soldier as soon as he came back.
"Hypocrite. If he hates to see such a scene, why would he use a weapon so destructive in the first place?" Toby scoffed.
"Your Highness, shall we advance toward the enemy lines?" the general leading the army asked.
"Move ahead. We must find out today what the hell Shawn is doing!"
Harper and Matthew were still trying to escape the Great Jade Kingdom, and in the process, attempting to eliminate the killers
that were sent after them. They seemed to be not able to shake them off, and soon, Harper understood why: she must be the
reason why they kept finding them out. With that, a grim expression graced her face.
"Harp, Rolando said you were poisoned. Is that true?" It was a question that was eating Matthew up from the inside. However,
Harper looked unharmed, so he was beginning to doubt what Rolando had told him.
"I wasn't poisoned. I was drugged with poisonous insects. He put it on the Heavenly Book, to be sure that I get it to my system.

But it's not a big deal, Matthew. I used my spiritual power to seal it up. The unfortunate thing is, there's no way for me to remove
it," Harper explained, pointing at her elixir field.
Matthew's face became grim. "Rolando also told me that if you go too far away from him, your life would be in danger."

still alive, aren't I?" Harper asked with a smile. "Are you sure you're okay, Harp?" Matthew asked, sounding extremely concerned. "I'm all right, Matthew. You don't have to worry. I just don't know how to get rid of this Deathly Kalpa inside of me but my life isn't threatened. Believe me." Harper held Patrick in her arms. "Anyway, as I said, Rolando is already on his way to the Dragon Pass. Even though I have

him alone, I'm afraid he may hurt you!" he rejected at once. "Matthew, not everyone in the world is Rolando," Harper responded calmly. "Harper, even without Rolando, there is still Francis hidden in the dark." Harper sighed helplessly. "Without

Upon hearing that, Zorro silently stepped aside. The twelve secret guards were indeed of no use. Even though they were with
the princess when Rolando took her away, they were able to do nothing but watch.
"Matthew, stop it. Kile is not bad, so stop making him out to be someone like that. And if you're afraid that he'll do something to
me, trust me, no. I am not gold—not everyone likes me. And even if I am gold, there will always be someone who wouldn't like
me," Harper said, vexed.
Matthew didn't share the same thinking. His wife was a charming lady, and he knew that once men laid their eyes on her, she
would be their object of affection. Hell, he even wanted to hide her at home and never let anyone see her! Now, especially after

the Wonder Kingdom alone. Moreover, Kile was a bastard who wanted to woo every beautiful woman he saw! "I have been a good friend of Kile for years, Matthew. He does that just to protect himself," Harper continued. She believed in Kile. The imperial family of the Wonder Kingdom was by no means a loving family.
