Perfect Husband, The Destined One novel Chapter 5524

As the final word rang through the air, Antigonus' eyes flashed coldly. His right hand struck quick as lightning, casting a blow sharp as a knife that pierced straight into Morticia's back.

In the blink of an eye, fresh blood sprayed through the air.

A brilliant pain came hurtling over in waves as Morticia's body jerked, her brain buzzing and going blank.

The Archfiend… wanted to kill her?

Morticia could have never thought that Antigonus would strike at the very final moment.

Whew…

At the same time, everyone else watching on stopped short at the sight as well.

"What's going on?"

"He's gone mad. He killed one of his subordinates."

"Is this what the Archfiend's true colors are? He's ruthless…"

Amidst the surrounding cries, Master Magaera frowned from where he was, trying to think of something.

The gods and Fiends had been at war for many years, and Master Magaera more than understood Antigonus. Despite his cruel and violent demeanor, he would never act on a situation rashly.

Yet… him striking his own men was something that Master Magaera had far from expected.

No way…

He must have some sort of ploy.

At the thought, Master Magaera stared intently at Antigonus, growing more and more wary by the second.

Just then, Morticia returned to her senses as well. As blood continued to gush out of her and her exquisite face grew paler and paler, she stared at Antigonus in shock. "Honorable Archfiend…"

As she spoke the words, Antigonus cut her off coldly. "The only punishment fit for betraying the Fiend race, is death."

"Did you really think that I'd forgiven you? That was all a plan. How else was I going to make the Blood Sacrifice Formation?"

The Blood Sacrifice Formation?
