Chapter 1540: Lord of the West

“Greetings, Your Majesty the Divine Emperor!”

At this moment, a thunderous kneeling sound came, with Casillas at the head, and everyone from the Divine Court knelt and saluted Helena.

Their emotions had just been like a roller coaster, fluctuating wildly, but now they finally had their own Divine Emperor, and the Divine Court would not be destroyed.

“Alright, everyone, rise.”

Helena waved her hand, allowing everyone to stand up again.

“Thank you, Your Majesty the Divine Emperor!”

Casillas and the others stood up, their gazes falling on Ye Bufan, their emotions incredibly complex.

When he first met this Young man, he had held a superior attitude, but now he realized that whether it was the Tu Tribe, the Blood Clan, or their Divine Court, they all respected him.

If one were to say who could command the entire Western world, it would probably be none other than Ye Bufan, the undisputed Lord of the Western world.

Helena sat on the throne, admired by thousands, but there was not much joy in her heart.

She had never thought of becoming the Divine Emperor; her previous idea was to stay by Ye Bufan’s side and happily be a woman.

But she never expected that by a strange turn of events, she would be pushed into this position, and she couldn’t back out even if she wanted to.

She looked at the handsome face before her with a complex expression: “Ye Dage, where are you planning to go now? Are we not able to be together anymore?”

Ye Bufan nodded: “My business here is almost done, and I will be returning to Huaxia soon.”

“Are you going back already? Can’t you stay?”

A hint of disappointment flashed across Helena’s face; if they were in the West, they still had a chance to meet again, but once he returned to Huaxia, it would be difficult to see each other again.

“Of course, I have to go back; that’s my home, and my Family and Foundation are all there.”

Ye Bufan raised his hand to tidy her messy hair, “I’ll come back to see you if I get the chance.”

Helena nodded: “Mm, Ye Dage, remember your words.”

As the two of them were talking, a melodious phone ringtone suddenly sounded; it was Ye Bufan’s phone in his pocket.

He picked up the phone and glanced at it; it was Lei Guardian Xie Changsi calling, which immediately made his heart tighten.

Before he came here, he had asked Xie Changsi and Situ Fei to guard Alicia and Lu Banxia at home; if it wasn’t important, they wouldn’t call him.

Indeed, after he pressed the answer button, Xie Changsi’s anxious and weak voice came from the other side: “Boss, it’s bad, something has happened here!”

Ye Bufan asked: “What happened?”

He was a little surprised; the Black Wizard Alliance had been completely conquered by him, and now the Blood Clan and the Divine Court were all here, so logically, there shouldn't be any strong presences in Angel City.

“It’s like this, Boss, some people just arrived and kidnapped Alicia and Young Miss Lu Banxia?”

“What?” Ye Bufan’s heart sank, and he asked coldly, “Who did it?”

“I’m not entirely sure, but those people are very strong in combat; two of them have already reached the Great Perfection Realm of the Saint rank.

Although Situ Fei and I fought with all our might, we were ultimately no match for them; they took the two Young Misses, please punish me, Boss.”

Xie Changsi’s voice was filled with guilt.

“Alright, it’s not your fault.”

Ye Bufan could tell that Xie Changsi’s voice lacked strength, indicating he was clearly injured quite badly.

He asked again: “Did those people leave any clues?”

“Before those people left, they said they wanted the Boss to arrive at Wild Wolf Mountain, a hundred miles outside Angel City, within 24 hours.”

Ye Bufan nodded; these people were indeed after him, but even now, he couldn’t figure out who they were or how they possessed such powerful strength.

“I understand; you two should focus on recovering from your injuries for now; don’t worry about anything else.”

After Ye Bufan finished speaking, he hung up the phone and then quickly dialed Lucia’s number.

As one of the Blood Clan Princes, Lucia was quite far from here because she managed the entire Americas; the previous Blood Emperor Valentina had not transferred her over.

The call connected quickly, and Ye Bufan said in a deep voice: “Tell me exactly what happened? Who captured Alicia and Lu Banxia?”

“Mr. Ye, I just received the news as well; I tried calling you before, but your calls couldn’t connect…”

After Lucia returned to the Americas, she gave the ten Bao Xue Dan (Precious Blood Pill) to her ten marquises, and as a result, the Bouchard Family suddenly gained ten Grand Dukes, a strength sufficient to dominate all other Blood Clan Families.

This made her ecstatic, and just as she was about to call Ye Bufan to thank him properly, she suddenly received news that something had happened to Alicia and Lu Banxia.

Lucia wanted to tell Ye Bufan immediately, but unfortunately, he was in the Dragon King Palace at the time, and more than a dozen calls couldn’t connect.

“Alright, hurry up and tell me, who did it?”

Ye Bufan’s words carried a chill; he was now ready to return to Huaxia.

However, before leaving, he had to eliminate all unstable factors.

“It’s the Wolf Clan,” Lucia said. “This time, the Wolf Clan went crazy for some reason and sent all Eight Wolf Kings to Angel City.

At first, I wondered what they were up to, but I didn’t expect them to later capture Alicia and Young Miss Lu Banxia.”

The Western Dark World is mainly composed of three major forces; the strongest is the Blood Clan, which, in addition to a Blood Emperor, also has ten Blood Clan Princes.

The second largest force is the Wolf Clan; the Eight Wolf Kings are no less powerful than the Cardinal and Saint-ranked powerhouses.

The third largest force is the Black Wizard Alliance; although they also have some experts, they are still much weaker compared to the Wolf Clan and the Blood Clan.

The three forces combined to form a Dark Council, with the Vampire Queen serving as the chairperson.

However, this organization only functions when it comes to confronting the Divine Court; normally, they each act independently, and for the Wolf Clan, besides the Vampire Queen, they don’t pay much attention to anyone else in the Blood Clan.

Because of this, when the Eight Wolf Kings came to the Americas this time, they did not inform Lucia.

“Knowing who it is is enough,” Ye Bufan said. “I’m returning to Angel City now; you do your best to gather information for me.”

“I understand, Mr. Ye.”

Lucia, having received so many benefits, readily agreed, and then she asked, “Mr. Ye, how is your friend? If there’s no hope, I think you should give up…”

She originally wanted to persuade him further; after all, the other party was the Vampire Queen, and no matter how powerful Ye Bufan was, he couldn’t contend with an Emperor-ranked powerhouse.

But just as she was halfway through, she heard Ye Bufan say: “The matter has been resolved; I’ll tell you the details when I get back; what you need to do now is help me gather information.”

After speaking, he hung up the phone with a snap.

On the other end of the phone, Lucia was completely bewildered; the matter was resolved, but how was it resolved? Did he rescue her? How was that possible?

She probably couldn’t even imagine that the person Ye Bufan wanted to save had now become their Blood Clan’s ruler, the new Vampire Queen.

Helena saw Ye Bufan’s expression becoming increasingly grim, and after he hung up the phone, she asked with concern: “Ye Dage, did something happen?

If there’s anything, just say it; as long as our Divine Court can help, we will do our utmost.”
