Chapter 766: Chapter 439: Just Stand There_3
The potion they were drinking didn’t require filtering out any impurities – what they couldn’t absorb, they could just excrete.
The higher the purity, the better the absorption and the faster the effects. This advantage alone made the potion vastly superior.
With every breath Negris took, he felt his spiritual power grow. Unable to contain his excitement, he exhaled a puff of dragon breath.
“Hahaha, I can breathe dragon fire now, watch me burn your butt.” Negris excitedly blew another puff of dragon breath at Durken.
But as soon as he blew it out, Durken punched him right in the nose, shutting his mouth. The dragon breath got stuck inside his mouth, spurting out from between his teeth.

“Kvada! So hot, I’ve got blisters!” Negris cursed as he ran towards Ange, opening his mouth wide to reveal the blistered area.
...
After a few applications of the Face Purification Technique, his sores disappeared. Negris no longer was angry but rather blissfully clutched his bottle and continued to drink. He had always wanted to grow up quickly and improve his strength, but this method of first improving his spiritual power seemed to work even faster.
Just then, there was a sudden disturbance outside the manor.
Since Ange arrived, he pushed the enemies outside of the wall with one blow. The enemies couldn’t get in, so they just surrounded them from outside, not retreating, probably waiting for reinforcements.
When Durken captured Lidaluo earlier, it caused some commotion, which then subsided. Now, the commotion had suddenly risen again, becoming more intense, and eventually, they turned tail and ran.
The enemies besieging the manor didn’t even bother about Lidaluo and quickly retreated, leaving the area completely deserted.
Count Feiwo peeked out and wondered, “Why did they retreat? What happened? Did the Northern Wind Clan send reinforcements?”
Except for reinforcements from the Northern Wind Clan, Count Feiwo could not think of any other force that could make Earl Gura withdraw.
The answer quickly came. From afar, there was a loud howling. Little Angel and Little Zombie ran in, their hands wide open for balance, while behind them, Roxy, Ji Li, and others followed.
“Eh, how did you get in?” Negris asked in confusion, “Wasn’t the city gate closed? Did you break into the city?”
Negris, carrying Ange, had arrived earlier than Little Angel and Little Zombie. They discovered the city gates were closed and had to fly over the wall with Ange.
Seeing them come in so easily now, had the city gates been opened?
Roxy said, “I don’t know, when we took the skeletons to the city gate, the people there opened the gate. They even warmly greeted us, so we just went in.”
Negris, Silver coin, and Feiwo all facepalmed, “When the city gate opened, you just went in? Weren’t you afraid it was a trap?”
A scratching her head and chuckling, Roxy said, “Who would have thought that far… ”
Silver coin suddenly slapped his thigh, “I’ve figured it out. The people at the city gate must have misunderstood. They probably thought the skeletons from the city cemetery had arrived. The reason Earl Gura’s men retreated might be because they also misunderstood and thought an army of skeletons from the cemetery was marching, which terrified them into running.”
Feiwo instantly looked at Silver coin, and their eyes met. “Earlier, we were worrying about how to maintain order in the city after winning the bid for the City Lord. We are short on men. As they have misunderstood, let’s just go along with it.”
“Lord, please place the skeletons in key, obvious locations within the city. We should place around a dozen in each place. They don’t need to do anything, just standing there will suffice.”
