Chapter 517: Hatred of Stealing a Wife, Stirring up Trouble
“Reporting to the Emperor!”
One Shot respectfully responded, “What His Royal Highness, the Crown Prince, said is true. General Wolf Sean did stay in the Imperial City of the Shirine Empire and has not left. I infiltrated the Imperial City of the Shirine Empire and personally saw this person, and I could feel the energy emanating from him. There is no doubt that he is a strong practitioner of bright energy. This is not fabricated!”
Upon hearing this, Albert Sitwell’s pupils suddenly contracted, and he furrowed his brow as he asked, “Is that so?”
“Absolutely true!”
One Shot’s tone was resolute!
This made Albert Sitwell unable to help but have some doubts. He would not fully trust Donald Sitwell’s words, but he had no doubt about One Shot’s words. If One Shot said he saw Sean in the Imperial City of the Shirine Empire with his own eyes, then it must be true! Therefore, Sean being in the Shirine Empire meant that he could not be present in the North Kingdom at the same time!
“Could it be…”
After a moment, Albert Sitwell said in a deep voice, “Have I been overly cautious?”
As the ruler of the North Kingdom, Albert Sitwell was cautious in his actions. Whenever there was doubt in his mind, he would seek verification at the earliest opportunity, always striving for certainty!
“One Shot said, ‘General Wolf Sean entered the ranks of bright energy at the young age of twenty-six, a talent rarely seen in the world. If he were to enter the Hundred-Meter Bamboo Forest in the middle of dark energy, let alone ninety-nine meters, even if he completed the entire distance, I would believe it!'”
“But!”
“Other than Sean himself, it’s hard for me to believe that someone like Great Ape, a peerless talent, who was assigned by him to infiltrate the North Kingdom and plot against us.”
“Too difficult!”
“His achievement of ninety-nine meters has already broken the historical record of the Buddha Academy, a once-in-a-century event. Such a figure, if also hailing from the Shirine Empire, then… how strong must the fate of the Shirine Empire be?”
Indeed!
Fate!
In a country, generally speaking, there is only one practitioner of bright energy, and the talent and potential of a practitioner of bright energy can directly influence the future and fate of the entire country to a large extent!
If the ruler is strong, so is the country!
If the ruler is weak, so is the country!
And those countries without a practitioner of bright energy can only face the fate of division and extinction!

The core of the former ruler of the Shirine Empire, King Ron, was damaged, and the country’s strength was weak. Albert Sitwell took advantage of this and attempted to annex the Shirine Empire, intending to incorporate it into the territory of the North Kingdom!
As a result!
Sean Mason, this strange person, emerged and turned the tide, repelling the North Kingdom’s million-strong army in the national war and leading a change of regime, stabilizing the situation of the Shirine Empire. This meant that the fate of the Shirine Empire had reversed!
Just one Sean was enough to give Albert Sitwell a headache, and now with a Great Ape who achieved ninety-nine meters, what then? Once Great Ape advances to the ranks of bright energy and joins forces with Sean, wouldn’t they turn around and annex the North Kingdom?
“And!”
One Shot paused for a moment and continued, “Although Great Ape’s talent is strong, he is still only a junior practitioner in the middle stage of dark energy. If he is indeed under Sean, how could Sean allow him to enter the North Kingdom?”
“If he were killed, what a huge loss it would be?”
“If His Majesty and Sean were to exchange positions, would you send a figure like Great Ape into the territory of the Shirine Empire to take such risks?”
From whichever angle one considered, it was unreasonable!
“Hmm!”
After contemplating for a moment, Albert Sitwell nodded and said, “What you say is not without reason!”
“However!”
“Great Ape and the mystery of the Gorillas’ origins, even if it’s not part of Sean’s scheme, we cannot be careless. We have to be on guard. In the world, those who are hostile to us from the North Kingdom are not just limited to the Shirine Empire!”
“In this way!”
“After Great Ape enters the capital headquarters with the people from Plainwater Town branch, you will immediately assign someone to closely monitor his every move. If anything unusual is found, report to me immediately!”
As the saying goes, trust those who are trustworthy, doubt those who are doubtful! Before completely dispelling doubts about “Great Ape” and clarifying his background and origins, Albert Sitwell would naturally not easily recruit him!
For example, Romanov!
His family background was very clean, which was why Albert Sitwell had taken him in as a student of the royal family!
“Yes!”
One Shot bowed and accepted the orders…
Meanwhile, in the capital headquarters of the Buddha Academy, the news of Great Ape achieving ninety-nine meters caused a great uproar among the disciples in the headquarters!
After all!
The capital headquarters almost gathered the elite descendants from all over the North Kingdom. Even the disciples from the eighteen branches considered it an honor to enter the headquarters. The so-called Academy-wide martial arts competition was, in fact, the main way for the headquarters to recruit talented individuals. Any branch disciple who performed outstandingly in the Academy-wide martial arts competition would receive an invitation from the headquarters!
Therefore!
The disciples of the headquarters were the elite among elites! But even so, no one among the headquarters’ disciples could achieve the terrifying feat of walking ninety-nine meters in the Hundred-Meter Bamboo Forest, which speaks volumes about its difficulty!
“Great Ape!”
“Daring to take such a name. If he does not possess natural talent, he will surely be killed as soon as he arrives at the headquarters!”
“I heard he even took Patric Harris’s fiancee, reveling every night without any scruples, causing the entire headquarters to be aware, making it a scandal. It’s truly an arrogant and shameless fellow!”
“Heh heh!”
“The Academy-wide martial arts competition this time will be quite a spectacle!”
…
The deeds of Great Ape became the topic of discussion among the headquarters’ disciples during their leisure time. Almost everyone was privately discussing and eagerly awaiting the day of the Academy-wide martial arts competition, wanting to see for themselves what kind of person this legendary Great Ape was and how he could possess such talent and audacity!
It wasn’t just the headquarters’ disciples; even the Lords and instructors within the headquarters were no exception. After all, the disciples from the headquarters just wanted to witness the excitement, but the Lords were different!
The country’s Grandmaster was banned, and the position of the head of the academy was about to change hands. The Lords had already heard the wind, and the result of this Academy-wide martial arts competition would have a significant impact on the selection of the head of the academy!
Therefore!
Great Ape’s sudden emergence at this time naturally drew a lot of attention to the representative of the Plainwater Town branch, Pastiff!
“Good!”
“Very good!”
Although Pastiff had always coveted the position of the head of the academy, he didn’t have much confidence before this. But now, it was different. The more outstanding Great Ape was, the greater his hope…
On the contrary!
Compared to the excitement and anticipation in other places, the atmosphere in the Harris family mansion in the capital was particularly oppressive at this time. The things Great Ape had done to Betty Jefferson had spread throughout the capital, causing the entire Harris family to feel ashamed!
At this moment!
In the main hall of the Harris family mansion, all the elders of the Harris family were present, as well as Betty Jefferson’s fiancé, Patric Harris. Everyone’s faces were extremely gloomy, with a palpable air of aggression!
“Grandfather!”
Patric Harris knelt in front of the hall, facing the group of core members of the Harris family, and gritted his teeth, “That scoundrel Great Ape has gone too far. I implore Grandfather to act on my behalf, to eliminate this villain, to torture him, to vent my hatred for stealing my wife, and to wash away the shame of the Harris family!”
Patric Harris was about to explode with anger! The gap between the Jefferson family and the Harris family was too great, and Betty Jefferson was not a match for Patric Harris to begin with. The reason this engagement was arranged was that the Harris family wanted to win over Tommy, who had walked ninety-three meters in the Hundred-Meter Bamboo Forest, for the benefit of the family’s interests. For the sake of the family, Patric Harris had endured it!
And now!
Betty Jefferson hadn’t even married into the Harris family yet, and she had been taken by that scoundrel Great Ape, tarnishing her reputation in the entire city, making Patric Harris and the entire Harris family the laughingstock of the North Kingdom!
How could such a humiliation, such an irreconcilable enmity, not be avenged?
He must be killed!
That good-for-nothing Great Ape must be killed!!!
