The Wolf’s Bride

Chapter 1523

Halle!

Andrius was instantly astonished and took a while to return to his senses. He looked at Halle and smiled wryly. “I really didn’t expect you to be the new Insect Ruler.”

At the same time, he was relieved.

Halle was undoubtedly one of them. There was no hostility between them.

“Halle! Y-you...” Kate pointed at Halle, evidently so shocked that she could not speak. Her eyes widened in surprise.

“Halle...” Luna’s astonishment was no less than Kate’s.

The moment she saw Halle, she used the secret technique taught by the lamia to sense Halle’s strength but could not find out any clues. Thus, she did not think that the new Insect Ruler was Halle.

“Quick, tell us what happened.” Kate was impatient to know the whole story.

“Sure.” Halle smiled and explained, “After you left Murrfield, I traveled around and found a mysterious place. At that time, I didn’t think much of it and simply entered. All text © NôvelD(r)a'ma.Org.

“Unexpectedly, at the deepest part was an altar. I went through the reviews left behind by the previous generations of Insect Rulers inside, so I inherited a lot of their power and also gained the recognition of the ancestors of Murrfield. After cultivating them, my strength greatly improved. Finally, I became the new Insect Ruler.”

So, that was it.

The three were struck by realization after listening to the story.

Andrius asked curiously, “What level is your strength now, Halle?”

“At least, the third Divine Step!” The one who had spoken was not Halle but an old man beside her. It was the elder of the temple, Otto Price.

The third Divine Step!

Andrius could not help but sigh. He had only broken through to the second step after hardship and endured divine thunder before finally succeeding.

However, just by inheriting the secret techniques of the Insect Rulers, Halle broke through from the Martial Emperor realm to the third Divine Step, crossing three major stages in between!

How frustrating.

There was truly no fairness in this world.

Luna was also slightly stunned upon hearing this.

In such a short time, Halle had reached the third Divine Step. She was not inferior compared to Luna.

Luna felt a sense of urgency.

Kate lamented softly. Luna and Halle both had their lucky encounters. When would it be her turn? She was the weakest among the three women. Furthermore, the gap was getting bigger and bigger. It was to the point where she could not even see their backs anymore...

Andrius simply sighed and did not dwell on it too much, asking, “Halle, did you deliberately release the news to lure the Progenitor Emperor over?”

Based on their previous conversation and knowing Halle’s identity, Andrius had a few guesses.

“That’s right!” Halle confessed, “It’s part of my plan. First, with the help of the Progenitor Emperor, I’ll get rid of those scheming opponents. They’re always thinking about taking over Murrfield and breaking away from Florence, becoming an independent state. Those kinds of people must not be allowed to stay.”

Andrius nodded in agreement.

Murrfield was in need of revival and order. Such troublemakers could not be allowed to remain.

“After they’re cleared out...” Halle continued, “Then, we’ll join forces to deal with the Progenitor Emperor!”

Andrius’ eyes widened.

Halle’s idea was bold, but now, it seemed very feasible. After all, it was most effective to target the head.

If they could directly take the Progenitor Emperor down in this confrontation, it would undoubtedly save a lot of trouble, and everything would fall into place!

Immediately, Andrius asked, “When do you plan to take action?”
