Living With My Lady Boss by Blue Silver novel Chapter 2425

"Those traitors! We're going to make them pay for what they did to us!"

…

"Silence!" Arthur roared, and the cultivators fell quiet. "This is a matter of great importance, and I only have one wish. Remember this: Within the next three days, I want to see the skull of General Buker of Ede!"

Cultivators had the power to control the world of regular mortals. Buker, as the General of Ede, naturally had the nation wrapped around his finger. It did not take a genius to figure out that attacking Skermann had been his idea.

Thus, killing Buker would cause a big enough wave to stir among the soldiers of Ede. They would surely lose their bravado and cease further attacks on Skermann.

The truth was that Arthur had weighed out the possibility of being attacked by a neighboring country in the past two years, and even drafted plans to deal with the situation. Now that it had happened, Arthur was going with his best plan first.

The thirty cultivators went on their way under General Arthur's orders, heading toward Ede. Even if they were not very fast flyers, both Skermann and Ede were small enough for the journey from Beklaven to the border of Ede to only take an hour.

Arthur's mission was to have Buker's head in three days, and most of the cultivators were eager to get it done in two. The quicker they got it done, the bigger of an impact it would make. However, within the first hour of their arrival at the borders, they received shocking news.

Just half an hour ago, a cultivator from Skermann had already taken General Buker down.

"What…"

"We go back to Beklaven at once and inform the General."

Ede was bound to resent the cultivators of Skermann even more now that something like this had happened. With Buker already dead, the cultivators did not feel the need to risk heading into Ede as well. Thus, everyone retreated back to Beklaven.

"What? Someone killed Buker an hour ago?"

"Yes, it's the absolute truth."

"Do you know who did it?" Arthur asked.
