Perfect Husband, The Destined One novel Chapter 5385

Amidst the voices, the officials ordered the pupils immediately. "Quick, search the grounds nearby. Take down anyone you come across."

The officials were quite angered then.

There was no way nothing came out of such a phenomenon. Someone had to have been here first, and taken the treasure away. This was supposed to be the True Flame Sect's, how could it end up in someone else's hands?

All at once, the thousands of True Flame Sect members broke out into a furious search.

…

Just then, over on another end.

Rachelle stood outside the tent, unable to hide the expectation in her gaze.

The True Flame Sect pupils had to have reached wherever the supposed treasure that had been powerful enough to bring upon such a tremendous natural phenomenon was.

Rachelle kept her focus on the hole ahead of her. She did not realize the faint wisp of a spirit shadow behind her slipping into the tent silently.

The spirit shadow was near transparent, almost impossible to see in the dark of the night.

It was the spirit shadow of Prince Auten.

Upon getting out of the gigantic hole, Prince Auten had relied on his sensory skills and discovered that someone was undergoing a rebirth nearby. Without hesitation, he headed over.

Huh…

Upon entering the tent and seeing Adam lying in it, Prince Auten's eyes narrowed as he mumbled to himself, "This man appears to be fatally wounded, but he has one of the strongest bodies I've ever come across. I seem to be in good luck, having come across such a suitable body just as I got here."

As he spoke, Prince Auten got closer gradually.

Adam was in the final stage of his rebirth, and his body was completely red as he slowly came to his senses. He sensed that someone was nearby, and opened his eyes instantly.

Oh?

At the sight of Prince Auten before him, Adam got a shock instantly as he asked in a feeble voice, "Who are you?"

Adam used all his force to strike harshly against the insides of the glowing sphere. It was incredibly loud, but the sphere blocked off all sound and no one from outside heard it at all.

What?

At the sight, Adam's expression shifted. He had used his full energy, and it had still not been enough to even break this person's protective shield. Who was that man?

"You're hardly a looker, but your body's strength will do…"

Just as Adam reeled in shock, Prince Auten spoke slowly as his spirit shadow turned into a ray of light that entered the glowing sphere, entering Adam's body.

The next second, Prince Auten's spirit shadow began to take over Adam's bit by bit, before usurping it completely.

Having one's spirit shadow be usurped was a pain that few could bear. Adam let out an agonized cry as he called out, "Argh! Who… who… are… y-you…"

Prince Auten's voice rang through the air.

"You're going to cease to exist, so I'll tell you now. I'm the son of the Nine Heavens Emperor, and the future ruler of you mortal folk."
