Chapter 1054: Red Wedding (1)
[Day of the Wedding]
Inside the room where Lady Kami, Azela, and Commander Agnes were being held, the ladies assigned to prepare them for the wedding were busy at their task, dressing them for their big day.
The three ladies remained calm, making no sound despite the situation they found themselves in.
It was almost as if they had given up hope and were now waiting to get things over with.
However, in reality, they couldn’t wait to see the bastard who had kidnapped them choke on his own blood.
Unlike the Taming Bracelet or the harem link, which can be used from a long distance, the connection between the three ladies and their tamed beasts could only work if they were on the same planet.
The moment one was off-world, the connection became usable. However, because they were connected, each could feel the other’s emotional state.
This was how Yu Lan and the other beasts knew the three ladies were afraid a few days ago. Naturally, they were terrified… however, they weren’t anymore.
Their calm and composure were because of the people currently inside an inn somewhere in Alpha City.
Kent sat around a table with Yu Lan, Esme (the dragon beast contracted to Lady Kami), Lois (the phoenix contracted to Lady Azela), and General Brianna.
He had disguised them so no one could recognize them.
They had arrived three hours ago, and while Kent could get his mission done, he first wanted to wait and gather all the scums supporting the Planet King.
He wanted them all dead, so he was waiting for the wedding to start.
“What is the plan?” General Brianna asked, a little nervous. It was her lifelong dream to kill the Planet King and his allies. However, with her strength, she knew she could only dream.
However, now inside his territory and even free to do as she pleased, she wanted to know how the mission would be carried out and what role she would be playing.
“There is no plan, General,” Kent said with a smile.
“What do you mean, there is no plan?” General Brianna frowned.
“Why would I need a plan to kill the scum and his lackeys?”
“This—” General Brianna didn’t know what to say.
“No need to be alarmed, General. The plan is very simple. When the wedding starts, I will walk there, kill them all, and leave. It is that simple, General, so no need to look nervous.”
The three beasts who knew what Kent was capable of didn’t doubt his words. They could tell he meant business, and so all they could do was wait for the time to come.
General Brianna could only sigh in her heart and hope Commander Agnes came out alive…

[Four hours later]
From the moment Kent and his people arrived, his soul map was active, watching as one guest after another arrived.
At first, the guests arriving were people he did not know. However, as the crowd grew, some familiar faces began to appear.
Most of these familiar faces came from the Pill Worlds. He recognized them because he had seen them during the Pill Ascension trial.
Kent never forgot a face.
Kent knew these people were in bed with the Evil sect, and now that he was seeing them at the wedding of their leader, he knew they must die.
Of course, he could gather evidence and try to shut them down. However, as beings from Pill Worlds and alchemists, they could argue that they were neutral parties and were invited because they wanted to expand their sphere of influence.
In a way, this could save them. So Kent had an outright plan to kill them. Allowing them to live would only make others grow a pair and also start doing the same thing… maybe even worse.
In no time, all guests were seated, and that was when he arrived…
’The Planet King’
Kent’s eyes narrowed when he saw the Planet King walk to the stage, followed by five people.
A smile formed on Kent’s lips when he saw the sixth, bandaged and seated on the sideline. He immediately realized what had happened to him, and now, seeing the anger in his eyes, he knew the bastard might be aware that the soul spirit that had exploded in his face had been tampered with…
The only suspects, too, were now about to marry his boss, so he could only fume in silence.
The five standing behind the Planet King were his generals, and on the left, seated in the front row, were the kings and queens of the six worlds he had under his control.
All six of them were powerful, and Kent could see it. But he wasn’t about to even think about them when his focus was on the Planet King.
’Ignarok and the others didn’t lie when they said he is strong.’ Kent had to admit, the bastard was dangerous.
With the Soul Map, he was able to sense his aura, and he knew if he had come right after he left the Flame Sea, winning would have been difficult.
’However, he is now as good as dead.’ Kent smirked and looked toward General Brianna.
“You, Yu Lan, Esme, and Lois are on a rescue mission.
Rescue the three ladies and take them to the ship, and leave. Head straight to Planet Nictus… I will follow when I am done.”
They nodded.
“Are you sure you will be okay?”
Kent stood up and smiled. “I have been to hell and back, General… so rest assured, I will be more than fine.”
The Planet King, who went by the name Zorath Kaine, scanned the faces of everyone present with his cold gaze.
“Welcome, everyone. I won’t take up much of your time because after today, we will start with our long, ambitious plan of taking over the entire star system, which includes the ten Pill Worlds.
You all have demonstrated your loyalty and have helped build this organization. However, we can’t stop there… we have to think bigger. So we will be expanding.
However, before the chaos, we must first celebrate.”
He smiled and walked to a throne prepared for him.
Then one of the kings, by the name Myrrh, a dark elf, stood up and walked to the stage.
“Lord Planet King has said it all… so without further ado, let’s welcome the brides.”
From one of the entrances, sixteen veiled beauties, all dressed in red, walked out and started heading toward the stage.
Lady Kami, Azela, and Commander Agnes were the last to walk out.
Lady Azela took the lead, telling the two ladies behind her not to worry —she would protect them. Of course, their cultivation was sealed, so she was just being brave for her daughter.
Every eye turned toward these beautiful ladies who would soon become wives of their leader, the Planet King.
However, just when the ladies came into view for everyone else to see, a handsome young man dressed in simple clothing walked forward and wrapped his arms around Lady Azela and Commander Agnes’ waists.
GASP
Gasps escaped everyone’s lips when they saw this. However, Kent merely smiled and stared at the dark circles forming around the planet king’s eyes…
He didn’t say anything.
However, Kent’s next action infuriated everyone. He leaned in, kissing Lady Azela’s cheek.
“YOU DARE!”
An arrow streaked through the air, aimed at Kent right when he kissed Lady Azela…
