章 824: Chapter 824: New Lord

They saw in Karyk a leader who inspired confidence and a young man who would stop at nothing to avenge his father's death.

The young man raised his hand, calling for silence. "We will rebuild our defenses, strengthen our forces, and fight back against those who seek to harm us. I ask for your trust and your support, for it is only together that we can restore peace and prosperity to the Celestial City."

"I'm sure you're all curious about his identity," he added, glancing at Karyk. "Let me inform you all. This is the Elder Brother of my Father, and from today onwards, he shall be your new Lord, taking my father's place!"

The crowds erupted in chatter, hearing the shocking news. They had thought that the young man was going to become the new City Lord. But instead, it was the masked men?

"Can we trust an outsider?" One of them muttered.
