Chapter 780: Chapter 780 – Attack

‘This inexplicable sense of sadness…’ Chen Heng subconsciously covered his chest as he felt the intense palpitations in his heart.

He felt somewhat inexplicable at this moment, ‘What happened in the outside world?’

He had a premonition that something bad was happening, as if a natural enemy had appeared and was about to target him. Even though they were far apart, he could still feel the unique feeling from the aura.

The Silver Moon mark on his palm was also shining, rays of light radiating within it.

‘Is this a reminder?’ Chen Heng frowned as he looked at the flickering light of the mark on his palm, and a thought flashed through his mind, ‘What exactly happened in the outside world?’

As if sensing the doubt in his heart, the mark on his palm continued to flicker. Then, a stream of information rapidly surged and transmitted into his mind. A scene appeared in his mind.

It was a palace that Chen Heng was very familiar with— the palace where King Violet lived. However, what was different from the past was that this palace was now in ruins.

The corpses of King Violet, Alice, Charlie, and the rest fell into the ruins. The corpses turned into wreckage, and they were gnawed into pieces, turning into a pile of broken corpses. Flames were burning, and darkness shrouded the Violet Royal Family’s palace. Everything fell into a deathly silence and destruction.

A tall and sturdy figure laughed wildly in this dark and terrifying scene. He transformed into a ferocious monster, and his body was stained with the Silver Moon Royal Family’s blood. He roared furiously at the Silver Moon in mid-air.

Even Chen Heng couldn’t help but frown, feeling the aura on his body, as if he had encountered his natural enemy. To be more precise, it was the natural enemy of the Silver Moon bloodline.

…

This aura was mainly targeting the Silver Moon Royal Family’s bloodline and did not have much effect on the Sun Royal Family’s and other royal families’ bloodline.

Looking at this scene, Chen Heng already understood what was going on.

‘Aili…’

After returning from the scene in his head, Chen Heng slowly opened his eyes, and a sense of understanding flashed through his heart. As he had expected, what had happened to Jason earlier was indeed done by Aili.

After this, Aili would continue to engage in slaughter, attacking King Violet and the others, and would not stop until the entire Violet Empire had been massacred.

This situation was much more serious than he had previously imagined. Based on Chen Heng’s previous assumptions, although Aili and Jameson were powerful, the Violet Empire was nonetheless strong to be able to survive in this world for so many years.

These two extremely powerful forces were competing against each other, and it was likely that neither could do anything to the other. Or rather, even if the victor could be decided, it would most likely be a very long process.

However, from the revelation given by the Silver Moon primogenitor, the Silver Moon Royal Family was probably not a match for Aili and the various King’s Council. Therefore, they would be directly defeated, turning into a scene of destruction. This was truly unexpected.

‘Looks like I have to hurry…’ Chen Heng recalled the scene just now and sighed deeply.

No matter what, the Violet Empire was his current base. Alice, Charlie, and the others were also his subordinates. Therefore, it would be best if he could save them.

However, he was currently trapped in this Root Trial. It would not be so easy for him to leave. Therefore, he had no choice but to end the trial as soon as possible. Thinking of this, he silently moved forward and walked to the next level.

…

While Chen Heng was trying to pass the trial, chaos had just begun in the outside world. The surroundings became chaotic when the Silver Moon hung high in the sky. Yet, the Violet Palace still seemed bright late at night. Although there was no electricity to illuminate it, s similar effect could be achieved by using magic arrays.

The entire palace was filled with the bright light of magic arrays, illuminating the place as if it was daytime. Aili quietly walked out of Jason’s palace. He did not leave the scene after killing Jason but had been lurking there.

King Violet and the others would be very surprised if they knew about this.

“The scene still looks the same. How lively…” Ali saw people coming and going outside Jason’s palace and could not help but miss it.

As he continued to kill and devour people’s corpses, Aili’s memories seemed to have greatly recovered. His intelligence also became normal, and he now gradually looked more like a normal person.

However, just because he looked like a normal person didn’t mean he was normal. He only looked like a normal person, yet in essence, his way of thinking was still different from the past. He was more like other lives.

In the past, although Aili was brutal and cruel, he was still a person and would never take devouring people for granted. However, in the eyes of the current Aili, devouring people was like eating food. It was so normal.

He did not look normal. Meat strips were squirming all over his originally dignified face as if there were worms constantly multiplying in it. His pair of silver eyes were bloodshot, looking exceptionally terrifying.

Aili had returned to normal, but after eating and devouring Jason alive, Aili’s bloodline had a new change, as if it had become unstable again. Besides his face, many of his internal organs were also significantly changing.

In the distance, Jameson looked at Aili with fear and didn’t dare to get close to Aili either. Yet, unfortunately, things had already developed beyond Jameson’s control. Before this, Jameson didn’t have the intention to sneak into the palace and kill the Violet prince when he brought Aili to the imperial city.

Initially, he only wanted to kill a few royal family branch members so that Aili could try to make some further changes. Yet Aili didn’t stop there and even sneaked into the palace and killed his younger brother.

Devouring a direct descendant of the royal family, who is even his younger brother, naturally would give him an effect much better than devouring any branch bloodlines.

A lot of new changes also happened to Aili’s body. Although it seemed a little scary on the surface, the change in power was undoubtedly huge. Jameson no longer had the confidence to control Aili. To prevent this experiment from going out of control, the King’s Council researchers naturally used all kinds of methods on them. So long as they dared to disobey, not only could they feel all kinds of pain, but they could also easily lose their lives.

However, Jameson felt that the methods the researchers had set up on Aili were no longer safe. Aili was a completely different level of existence. The aura on his body made Jameson feel terrified.

Aili had just reached the Monarch level when he first arrived at the imperial city. His strength was insignificant in Jameson’s eyes. However, the situation changed after devouring Jason. Aili’s current aura was so terrifying that it was completely different from before.

Jameson couldn’t understand. He had only devoured Jason, who hadn’t reached the bloodline peak, and his strength was not even a Monarch-level. So how could Aili’s strength reach such a level? This was completely illogical.

He was puzzled but could only stay far away from Aili. Otherwise, he was afraid that Aili would attack him directly. Yet, after a series of transformations, Aili, who was somewhat abnormal, could undoubtedly do such a thing to him.

Aili quietly enjoyed the baptism of moonlight. Then, he slowly walked out and headed toward the outside world. The direction he was heading toward was none other than the palace where King Violet stayed.

Jameson’s heart couldn’t help but skip a beat looking at Aili’s actions. Then, an unbelievable thought suddenly appeared in his mind, ‘He wants to make a move against King Violet?’ He thought in disbelief.

King Violet was Aili’s biological father. Not only was he the king of the Violet Empire, but he was also the strongest person within the entire Silver Moon Royal Family. His strength was so strong that even the current Jameson didn’t have absolute confidence to defeat him.

‘Aili wanted to attack the king!’

Jameson couldn’t help but feel a sense of absurdity in his heart, but he knew clearly that Aili could do such a thing at this moment. After all, he was already somewhat abnormal after a series of transformations. So killing his father was not a big deal for him.

As for his strength, it was hard to tell. Even Jameson didn’t know how strong Aili was at this moment. The only thing he could be sure of was that Aili had most likely transformed and had the means to threaten him.

Jameson could feel a faint sense of threat from Aili. This feeling made him feel a little uncomfortable. He had never seen such a monster before today. To Aili, improving his strength was as easy as drinking water and eating food, leaving others speechless.

Jameson stood where he was, looked at Aili before him, and sighed in his heart. He could only brace himself and follow. Under the night sky, Aili walked around the palace and shuttled through it.

The Violet Empire royal palace was heavily guarded, with naturally many guards within. Some of them were so powerful that they were comparable to monarchs.

Under normal circumstances, even if one were to move freely within this area and approach this area with hostility, it would immediately arouse the vigilance of the people around, causing all sorts of problems to arise, not to mention sneaking into the royal palace. By then, a guard would appear to expel and suppress the intruders.

However, all of this had completely changed when Aili appeared. As the Violet Empire prince and the previous heir to the throne, Aili was extremely clear about the arrangements within the palace. Every grass, tree, palace, and area here was extremely familiar to him. It was his home.

In addition, he had a pure royal bloodline, which resulted in him having a certain degree of authority over the magic array within the palace. This resulted in a situation where it was as dark as night. No one could discover him even when he walked in this region. Unless one could see him with the naked eye, they would not be able to discover him.

A faint silver light shone on the earth and Aili’s body as he walked silently towards King Violet’s palace. From its looks, he had already found his next target.

Jameson looked at the scene beside him. The faint sense of uneasiness in his heart became more intense at this moment. However, he had no other choice and could only sigh silently and continue walking, following beside Aili.

King Violet, in the distance, was still clueless and was still feeling anxious about other things.

“Alan is missing too?” Sitting in his palace, King Violet spoke with a solemn expression, looking at his subordinate before him.

After receiving a definite reply, his face immediately turned ashen, “After Jason, Alan also disappeared…” King Violet could not help but feel a little gloomy as he recalled the situation before him.

As Chen Heng followed the old servant into his palace earlier, he did not hide his whereabouts, and many people had seen him along the way. However, although many people had seen Chen Heng’s figure at that time, no one could confirm the scene at that time. Therefore, they could not confirm if the person at that time was Chen Heng.

Then, the news of Chen Heng’s disappearance was confirmed a few hours ago. King Violet put down all his current affairs and deliberately searched the palace wantonly but did not find any traces.

It was as if Chen Heng had disappeared into the palace out of thin air, and there was no aura or trace of his body. There was also no record of Chen Heng leaving the palace.

There were many magic arrays in the Violet Empire royal palace. These magic arrays were not only responsible for the safety of the royal family, but they also recorded everyone who entered the palace. Therefore, no one could avoid them except those with special privileges.

If Chen Heng left the palace, there should be records unless he deliberately wanted to avoid other people. However, there were no records at the moment. There was also no trace of Chen Heng in the palace.

King Violet immediately took this matter seriously, but there was nothing he could do. Out of King Violet’s three children, one had gone missing, and one had died. Now, the only one left, Chen Heng, seemed to be in trouble too. King Violet could not imagine what the situation would be like if that were the case.

“Find him.” Sitting on the throne, his face was gloomy as he said, “Do whatever it takes to find Alan. I have already lost one child. I will not let anything happen to another child!”

As soon as he said that, the people around trembled as they were intimidated by King Violet’s aura. They dared not move but could only bow their bodies and nod. Soon, they left and went to search for Chen Heng. Only King Violet was left on the spot.

Sitting on the throne, he looked at the disappearing figures around him, recalled what had happened during this period, and couldn’t help but sigh deeply in the end.

What had happened in the past year had been a bit too hard for him. Although the relationships between the royal family were relatively thin, they were not completely absent. For a father to lose his children one after another was not a good feeling. Especially now that the whereabouts of his last child, who was qualified to inherit his throne was also unknown.

‘Alan’s life aura is still here. I hope nothing big will happen to him…’ This thought flashed through his mind as he sighed silently.

Suddenly, he paused and felt a strange aura flash past. It was a familiar yet shocking aura.

‘This is…’ The moment he felt this aura, he stood up abruptly and looked in the distance in disbelief. He almost thought he was hallucinating.

‘It’s Aili’s sura! How is that possible?’ King Violet looked into the distance, and his heart was uncertain.

Only after a long while did he confirm that the owner of that aura in the distance was not anyone else but was indeed his child, Aili’s aura. As a father, King Violet was confident that he would not be mistaken.

‘However, wasn’t Aili missing? Why would he suddenly appear in the palace? What was his aura here, and even carried a strange scent?’ Various thoughts flashed through King Violet’s mind, and he had already sensed something was amiss.

Back when Aili was missing, he had personally gone to search for him, but the final results were inconclusive. However, through the initial search, he could tell that the people who had attacked Aili had great intentions and were extremely powerful.

Not only had they attacked Aili, but they had also attacked Aimer of the Gilna Empire. They had concurrently offended two of the three great empires, yet they were still unable to be discovered. One could imagine how terrifying their influence was.

Since Aili was taken away by such a terrifying force, how could he return so easily? King Violet understood that this could be a trap for him for them to achieve something.

Nonetheless, out of his self-confidence, he stood up and walked toward the direction where Aili’s aura came from. A powerful aura spread in all directions. In just an instant, he left the palace and came into the outside world in just an instant.

He was in a lush garden, which also belonged to the palace. However, it was not King Violet’s palace but a remote place. Aili’s aura was here. There should have been special servants here, but now they were all gone to search for Chen Heng’s traces.
