That b * tch Lefran is scheming against me.
Vladimir was very sure of this matter. If one day, someone told him that Lefran, that b * tch, was no longer scheming, then he would immediately switch to drinking vegetable juice and never touch that delicious blood for the rest of his life.
No matter if it was to test that person's attitude towards them, to obtain some information about that person, or to make that person go against him in order to achieve some other goals. He had seen this kind of trick countless times, so how could he not see through it? It was just that there was no need to say it out loud. Their alliance was just a tacit understanding, and there were also some contracts that could be avoided through various means. It couldn't be considered reliable.
"But when you scheme against me, aren't you also giving me another chance?"
He walked towards the front of the hall and separated most of the Noxian nobles with his predatory aura. After finding a good spot for himself and his supper, he smiled at the stranger who sat awkwardly on the throne beside the king and looked at him with obvious disdain when the king held his hand. The stranger was an outsider.
"Your father and I were brothers who swore to conquer the world together, but time is so merciless. When we only achieved half of our goal, his body could only retreat from the fiercest battlefront due to the years of war. He turned to nurture a successor for our cause."
The Grand Commander of Noxus didn't feel like he was saying anything dangerous because he knew that the eternal life and youth that he had always yearned for was right in front of him, in the hands of this person named Li Ke. He needed the power of Noxus to wipe out his enemies, and he needed the power of Noxus to pacify the untouchables to obey his rule. He also needed the population of Noxus to conquer and rule the world.
In other words, this person needed him because he was Noxus! He was the one who made Noxus prosper! The only one who could represent Noxus was him!
As long as he regained his youth, all dangers and hardships would be gone. As long as he obtained eternal life, he would have enough time to turn the world into Noxus. He would then become a god and possess supreme authority.
After all, that woman also yearned for this man's power. And without his help, without Noxus's help, that woman would definitely not succeed!
Definitely not …
Looking at the woman wearing a white mask who was conversing with someone, Darkwill's aged face revealed a smile. Indeed, without their help back then, it would've been very difficult for him to obtain this position. But things were different now. Back then, they helped him but betrayed him. Wasn't their leader wiped out under his orders? They were hanged by him like dead dogs, and the remaining people could only prostrate at his feet like dogs, licking their toes, using their blood and lives to beg for his forgiveness?
No one can threaten my throne, because this throne belongs to me alone! That was the case for the complacent Sven and the so-called Black Rose!
At this thought, Darkwill revealed a smug smile because not only could he regain his youth, but he could also get rid of Sven, who was a thorn in his side. When the fool who reported his parents and sent them to the gallows in exchange for Darkwill's favor lured the Ionian resistance army into a trap according to his reported plan, it would be the death of the fool who thought that Noxus had a will.
"Noxus only has one will, and that is my will!"
But while he was feeling smug, Li Ke's answer didn't satisfy him.
"I've heard about this, especially how decisive you were when you massacred the refugees. He said that he had never seen Noxus people who were as qualified as you, so I felt that there must be something wrong with his head. "
Li Ke narrowed his eyes because he smelled the stench of blood as soon as he entered the hall. Even though the underground nobles were looking at him with malicious gazes, the pale-faced man gave him an absolutely different feeling from their malicious gazes. If the noblewomen were thinking of how to make him indulge in their beds, the pale-faced man went a step further.
He wanted to skin him alive and eat him alive!
He definitely wasn't wrong! Because when nothing happened between him and Sarah, she would always stare at him with such a thirsty gaze when she woke up at night!
Furthermore, Darkwill had mentioned the general who had imprisoned him, so his answer was naturally filled with animosity.
"Ah, of course. He always said that I wasn't strong enough, but look, I lasted longer than him, didn't I? But it's a pity. In a blink of an eye, I'm already at his age. He has you as his successor, but what about me? Among my friends and subjects, who can inherit my great cause, my will, and my unfinished business? Is Noxus going to be wiped out from this day forth? No! It shouldn't be like this! "
Darkwill impatiently hinted at Li Ke. After all, he had had enough of his aging body. His enemies, or to be precise, his subordinates, would give him too much time. He had to find a shocking place to let all Noxus people know that he had regained his youth. He had to let those with malicious intentions know that he, Darkwill, was immortal! They would never grow old!
He lifted a finger slightly. In his memories, this was the secret signal that Khal Dukor had told him about his deal with Li Ke. When he lifted the finger with the golden ring and activated the magical imprint on it, Li Ke would fulfill the contract that they had wrangled for nearly three months. He would use the lives of three innocent people as the price to restore his youth. And in order to shock the people even more, he stood up the instant he activated the familiar ring and announced his next words loudly.
"So! My old friend's son has given me the power to restore Noxus's vitality. Here, at this moment! He will restore my youth! He will restore Noxus's youth! He will make my royal authority eternal! "
He raised his hand high, and the ring lit up with a resplendent radiance. But when a few soldiers who were willing to sacrifice themselves for him walked over, the scene of Li Ke restoring his youth didn't happen. Instead, Li Ke drew his sword and charged at him angrily!
And when Li Ke's sword pierced his heart, he heard Li Ke's furious roar amidst the excruciating pain and disbelief.
"Royal authority isn't eternal! Fool! "
He was mercilessly pushed away by Li Ke, and his crown fell to the ground and was stained with his own blood. When he collapsed on his throne, he saw the constantly flashing lightning imprint on Li Ke's right hand, as well as the woman who was smiling and raising her cup to him.
The woman in the white mask.
