Byrne took a deep breath, gazing at the figure of “Solar Gold,” and he still clearly remembered the words Viscount Bast had said to him.

“Do you know, Byrne, that hiding a grain of sand in a desert makes it impossible to find?”

“If you want to kill a few people without anyone knowing, the best way is to start a fire without motive, leveling the whole street to the ground.”

He certainly understood the meaning behind Viscount Bast’s words.

To keep the Lion clan from being suspected of killing Zavier and others, enough people had to die at the wedding banquet so that everyone would realize that the perpetrator was not solely targeting the Eagle clan and certainly couldn’t be from the Lion clan.

Therefore, a lot of people would die at the upcoming wedding banquet.

Byrne quietly watched “Solar Gold’s” movements and suddenly noticed that the expressionless man was also looking in his direction.

He had been noticed.

If it had been the old him, his heart would have fluctuated, but at this moment Byrne simply smiled calmly and walked forward, looking fearlessly at the Monarch Level powerful expert.

“Hello, I have always had an excellent memory, and I can remember most of the nobility on the East Coast, but I don’t seem to have ever seen you. Are you also a guest invited here?”

Instead of deliberately evading, he took the initiative to strike up a conversation with “Solar Gold” and even questioned his identity.

Byrne knew that Viscount Bast had given “Solar Gold” a portfolio in advance, within which some individuals were marked as those he absolutely had to kill, while others were those he must not.

Members of the Fischer family were definitely among the latter, and he was no exception.

If “Solar Gold” killed someone he was not supposed to according to the portfolio, he would be breaking The Oath, forfeiting his reward and suffering divine punishment.

So no matter what he said, he would not be in danger as long as he remained calm and “Solar Gold” did not recognize that he was “Mithril.”

No matter what, Byrne did not want to reveal his true identity in front of this extremely dangerous bishop.

The tall figure of “Solar Gold,” nearly two meters in height, slowly bent down to look into Byrne’s eyes, as if confirming his target.

His voice was magnetic and very steady.

“Respected Lord Byrne Fischer, I am a spice merchant who travels throughout Cyart, John. My family’s caravans have always conducted business with the Leone family, and having recently come to the East Coast Province from another province, I just happened to receive Viscount Bast’s wedding invitation.”

“It’s normal that you don’t recognize me, given that I only come to the East Coast Province once every few years and, by nature, am not part of your circle.”

“Solar Gold” calmly explained his situation. Spice merchant John was a false identity Viscount Bast has painstakingly prepared over a decade, and nobody could find any flaws in it.

“I see, it’s a pleasure to meet you, Mr. John. Since you’re a friend of the Leone family, you are also my friend.”

Byrne nodded slightly, smiling as he clinked champagne glasses with “Solar Gold” before politely turning to leave.

“Look!”

Accompanied by cheers, the bride and groom from both families had made their appearance, and all eyes were focused on the two, with many fully absorbed in watching this historic moment.

Meanwhile, Byrne, along with Chris and Vanessa, had already moved to a distant corner ahead of time.

He knew that now all he had to do was wait.

Upon reaching the corner, Chris too quickly sensed something was off. He saw a certain gleam in Byrne’s eyes as if the events about to unfold required vigilance to handle.

So he squeezed Vanessa’s wrist, silently conveying his thoughts.

Vanessa gave a slight start, then nodded gently.

“Solar Gold,” tall and imposing, slowly pushed through the crowd, stepping forward, his face expressionless as he observed the people around him.

He finally stood still, calmly extending his hand towards the sky, while those around him instinctively looked at “Solar Gold” who was making the gesture, showing confused expressions, totally unaware of what the man was about to do.

Nearly a thousand people had gathered around the country estate, and among those standing near “Solar Gold,” intently watching the wedding ceremony, there were indeed hundreds.

He would confine the range of his power.

As the wedding ceremony continued, the bride and groom had reached the most conspicuous stage, standing in front of Acting Bishop Zayne.

Zayne, smiling, spoke gravely to the couple:

“Under the witness and blessing of the vast Tempest Overlord, you are about to become a loving husband and wife. I know that you will be responsible for each other’s families, and for this country, and that a century later, you will also express your gratitude devoutly to the deities, for their majestic protection has kept you unharmed throughout your lives.”

Viscount Bast narrowed his eyes and smiled.

Many around him wore smiles on their faces, even relieved, feeling that the East Coast Province was on the verge of complete peace.

The towering “Solar Gold” watched everything with an expressionless face, completely out of sync with the cheerful atmosphere, and a faint golden light suddenly appeared in the palm of his hand.

“Hmm?”

Ariel Romann, standing dozens of meters away, suddenly turned her head, fixing her gaze on “Solar Gold’s” position.

“Bless you!”

The next moment, the crowd waved the fresh flowers in their hands, faces brimming with smiles as the music gradually rose. The atmosphere of the banquet became fervent and joyous, with guests clapping in unison.

Countless white doves and petals flew towards the sky.

Ariel’s expression dramatically changed, fear evident in her eyes.

Something akin to a miniature sun materialized in the unseeing palm of the “Solar Gold,” and in the next instant, an infinite golden radiance burst forth from his hand in all directions!

It was as if the sun rose slowly, its warm light piercing through the sky, illuminating the earth. The tender golden glow fell gently upon the crowd and trees, casting everything in a brilliant gold.

The smiling, clapping people gradually vanished within the golden light.

Byrne and Chris watched the scene in astonishment. It was a mighty force they had almost never encountered, a golden light that swallowed hundreds of people in the blink of an eye.

As the golden radiance slowly dissipated, people finally came to their senses, staring blankly at the location where the sunlight had erupted just seconds before.

To their surprise, they found that everyone engulfed by the sunlight had vanished.

“Such bright light, but not blinding at all, what on earth happened? What just happened?”

“Where did those people go?”

“The sunlight, gentle yet intense, as if the sun had fallen from the sky…”

A husband searched for his wife, who had clearly been beside him a moment ago, but now, there wasn’t a trace of her in the world.

He was bewildered, unable to comprehend the situation.

Among those who vanished were not only two prominent members of the Eagle clan but also a direct blood relative of the Lion clan, one of Viscount Bast’s grandsons, whom he had dearly cherished over recent years.

All the people had disappeared, leaving only the unseeing “Solar Gold” still standing there.

A few specks of golden afterglow lingered in the palm of his hand.

Ariel Romann looked on, her face serious, her eyes wide with shock as she kept her distance, hundreds of meters away from “Solar Gold.”

“Solar Gold” fully understood that she could escape and calmly gazed back at her.

If there was anyone who could pose a hindrance to him, it was that woman.

A drop of cold sweat appeared on Ariel’s exquisitely beautiful cheek, and fear surged deep within her.

“A mid-level Monarch? How could it be a mid-level Monarch? Why would such a powerful expert suddenly appear in Cyart’s East Coast Province?”

In all of Cyart, including the heretical cult, there were only seven or eight Monarch powerful experts who could reach the Middle Rank.

Her mind raced, but she couldn’t reconcile this man’s abilities and appearance, unable to understand which top-tier powerful expert the unseeing man could possibly be.

Viscount Bast was horrified, Viscount Zavier’s expression was one of shock, and the eyes of everyone else were filled with panic. They stared in disbelief at the top-tier powerful expert that had suddenly appeared.

“Just now, just now, Lord Zavier’s two brothers, they seemed to be right there, they vanished after the sunlight erupted!”

“And even Lord Bast’s grandson, even the head of the Sunrise clan all…”

Despair and terror filled the hearts of the people – within just an instant, several viscount families had suffered terrible losses and deaths!

Although the range of the sunlight was not very large, the mighty force contained within it was something that even the Extraordinary Exponents could distinctly sense!

Everyone knew clearly that it was a Monarch Level top-tier powerful expert, and there was no way they could contend against him!

“Everyone, don’t panic! Let’s cooperate with Lady Ariel!”

Viscount Bast unhesitatingly shouted, seriously reciting the Spell to activate the barrier. The barrier over Fein City was highly advanced, and even a powerful Monarch expert would be severely suppressed by its power.

Suddenly, a streak of golden sunlight pierced through Viscount Bast’s body, interrupting the spell to activate the barrier.

Before everyone’s eyes, a gruesome, vast wound appeared in his chest, and his body trembled as he fell, seemingly dead.

“Ah!”

“Viscount Bast is dead!”

The people were utterly thrown into chaos. While they had regained their senses and considered resisting, the sight of Viscount Bast’s fall sent them into a frenzy, leaving them to place all their hopes on Ariel Romann.

Then they witnessed a scene of despair; Ariel, a Monarch powerful expert, simply vanished into thin air, fleeing first, leaving behind only shattered bubbles.

In a corner on the edge, Byrne and Chris exchanged a glance. Even with their anticipations, Byrne still felt the cruelty and shock.

Viscount Bast showed no mercy toward his longtime friends and his own grandson, and even he himself fell into a near-death state.

But by doing so, no longer would anyone suspect the sudden massacre was connected to the Lion clan, while “Solar Gold” would soon reveal a well-known identity, giving a coherent logic to this frenzied attack.

Byrne took a deep breath and said to Chris and Vanessa, who were unaware, “Run.”
