Chapter 196: Why has our son become like this?

Chen returned to Holy Grass City, only to be greeted by his father, the King of Holy Grass City, Drake.

"My dear child, you're back!" Drake exclaimed with joy. "How did it go…"

Before he could finish, Drake noticed Chen's pale complexion and the tattered, blood-stained clothes.

Drake's expression immediately changed to one of concern as he asked anxiously, "Are you alright?"

Chen, exuding a chilling aura, replied, "I'm fine."

After speaking, Chen attempted to step aside and leave.

At that moment, his mother, Evangeline, approached from behind, also noticing Chen's injuries.

"My child!" Evangeline's face turned pale as she stepped forward.

Upon seeing the wounds on Chen's body, Evangeline's eyes reddened and she said, "Who did this to you? Let's quickly find the best priest to heal your wounds…"

Before Evangeline could finish, she felt a cold, sinister energy emanating from Chen.
