Chapter 2966
Donoghue was standing on top of a hill and took a deep breath. He looked
at the expanse of land in front of him as if he returned to a new world. 1
Although he was only trapped in purgatory for half a day time, the torture
he suffered during that time was unimaginable for a normal person.
He never imagined he could still escape. Chester thought he would never
be able to return to The Nine Continent and he never imagined he would
escape purgatory.
On top of that, Donoghue was the one who helped him escape Donoghue.
Donoghue, who was in the token, was overcome with emotions. He
laughed, “Ha- ha! Sh*t, I finally left that terrible place.”
“Thank you, Sect Master Wilson!” Donoghue said sincerely.
Chester smiled calmly when he heard that. “You don’t have to thank me. If you hadn’t shown me the way, I
wouldn’t have been able to escape purgatory.”
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtAlthough Donoghue was in the envoy token, that did not stop him from communicating with Chester. Chester was
still an envoy and could clearly feel what was going on in the token.
As he spoke, Chester looked around then squeezed his brows. “I’ve carried out the first condition of bringing you
back to The Nine Continent. To complete the second condition, I’ll need to slow down for a moment. I needed to
recover my energy first.”
Due to the various tortures he suffered, Chester was extremely weak.
Donoghue smiled and replied, “Naturally. You are a man of his words, so I’ll trust you.”
If this was three years ago, Donoghue would have never been so polite to Chester. However, after the incident,
both of them reached a unique understanding.
Donoghue knew his future was in Chester’s hands. If anything happened to Chester, he would not have a chance to
be resurrected. All their efforts would be wasted.
Sigh!
At that moment, Chester did not speak further. Instead, he looked around and realized they were at the border
between the New World and the Great East. He immediately headed northeast.
He remembered there was a valley not far away. The situation was complicated there and there was no sun at that
place the whole year round, so it was really dark.
Even though they had escaped from the Ghost World, Chester still had a soul contract with the King of the Dead
that had not ended. The energy that he needed to cultivate was still dark energy, so he needed to be in a dark
place in order to cultivate for his recovery.
Soon, Chester saw a valley filled with wild grass, abandoned. It was afternoon and the sun was shining brightly, but
the valley was dark and cold. This was the perfect place for Chester to cultivate.
However, Chester was not happy at all. ‘ What’s the point of getting
stronger without ending the Soul Contract with the King of the Dead? I still
won’t live like an ordinary person.’ 1
Chester sighed and asked, “Donoghue, you mentioned you know some
secrets about the King of the Dead?”
He was not actually interested in the King’s secret at all, but he wanted to
understand the King more in order to end the Soul Contract.
Donoghue replied quickly, “That’s right. You weren’t interested earlier, but
now you want to know?”
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmChester did not speak but kept his silence. Chester did not respond and
Donoghue smiled when he saw Chester was silent.
“The King of the Dead’s biggest secret is that he wants to conquer The Nine
Continent. Do you know what he needs in order to do that?” Donoghue
explained.
“What?” Chester asked.
Donoghue’s tone turned serious and he said, “He needs to be stronger. He’s
the King of the Dead and the leader of the Ghost World. He can’t come to
The Nine Continent. Those are the rules of the sky and earth. He needs to
have the power to alter the rules of the sky and earth. I heard he was
prepared to take action against the Nine Saint Oracles from the Godly
Region. They have an innate spiritual aura that, if absorbed, would help his
power reach unimaginable levels. Then, he would be able to travel between
The Nine Continent and the Ghost World.”
