Chapter 1266

The crown prince hemmed softly and stepped out of the crowd.

"Master Levi gave you guys the permission to seal off the mountain? Why have I never heard him talk
about this?" he asked slowly.

Shooting a glance at the crown prince, the scar- faced man replied disdainfully, "Who do you think you
are? What right do you have to know about Master Levi's affairs?"

The crown prince's face darkened at once.

Immediately, he rushed at the scar-faced man and slapped him twice across the face.

Infuriated, the scar-faced man drew his machete and slashed at the crown prince with it.

The crown prince reacted promptly.

Catching the machete with bare hands, he snatched the weapon and then slashed the scar-faced
man's shoulder with it, causing the man to let out a scream of pain.

Those behind the scar-faced man wanted to rush toward him.

Just then, however, the crown prince stepped on the man's neck and pointed at the crowd with the
machete in his hand, saying, "Listen up, you bunch of morons! I'm the crown prince of Mightwater! One
step forward, and I'll cut your legs off!"

Upon hearing his words, those men immediately stopped dead and looked at the crown prince in
horror, not daring to take a step forward.



After all, the name of the crown prince of Mightwater was too intimidating! The scar-faced man stopped
screaming as well.He asked in a trembling voice, "Y-You're the crown prince of Mightwater?"

The crown prince darted a look at him.

"The one and only!"

The scar-faced man was on the verge of tears; he really couldn't understand why he would run into
such a devil incarnate.

"Prince, I-I really didn't know it was you.Please be the bigger person and spare me..." he implored in a
trembling voice.

The crown prince let out a sneer.

"What a good-for- nothing! Weren't you acting all cocky just now? What right do I have to know about
Master Levi's affair, you say? Hmph! I just had dinner with him a few days ago, but he didn't mention
this to me"

No one dared to say anything, for the crown prince definitely wasn't bragging.

Levi thought very highly of Phoenix, so it wasn't unusual for the crown prince to go to Levi's place for
dinner.

After the scar-faced man pleaded with the crown prince piteously, the latter finally let him off, asking,
"So, tell me—who the f*ck is the person on that mountain?"

The scar-faced man pulled a long face.

"Prince, I-l really have no idea.I work for Master Elrich of Galvania, and he personally gave the order to
seal off the mountain.Not only that, but he's now attending to that big shot on the mountain, so that big



shot has to be someone extraordinary!"

Everyone at the scene gasped at the scar-faced man's words.

Master Elrich of Galvania was a real bigwig in Galvania who was on an equal footing with the Ten
Greatest Families.

But such a bigwig was now attending to that person like he was the latter's lackey? Just who the hell
could the person on the mountain be? The crown prince curled his lips in disdain.

"Never mind, I reckon you don't know what's going on either.F*ck off and let me go up the mountain to
take a look myself!"

The scar-faced man and his men immediately made way for the crowd, who then went up the mountain
right away.

Watching them walk into the distance, the scar-faced man immediately took out a walkie- talkie and
gave a signal to those on the mountain.

Walking side by side with the crown prince, Matthew bypassed a few slopes before stopping in his
tracks all of a sudden.He stared at the herb growers, asking, "Guys, isn't it about time for you to tell the
truth?"

Upon hearing his words, everyone was surprised.

The crown prince asked curiously, "What's going on, Matty?"

Matthew asked slowly, "Were the miraculous herbs on the mountain really planted by your ancestors?"

The herb growers paled slightly at his words.



Silas hurriedly replied, "Of course they were! We've been collecting herbs in this mountain forest for
generations, and our ancestors have planted lots of herbs deep in the mountains."

Matthew asked coldly, "Is that so? If your ancestors were the ones who planted the miraculous herbs in
such a remote location, why would somebody else come here and seal off the mountain to collect the
herbs?"

Silas explained with embarrassment, "Well...There was a traitor in our tribe who betrayed the secret
about the miraculous herbs and...and hence courted such a disaster...Matthew's face darkened at
once.

He said in a stern voice, "Silas, now that things have come to this, how could you still be lying to me?
Do you guys not want to walk out of this mountain forest alive?"
