Chapter 2567
The words seemed to have pushed Natalie further to explode from anger. ''Shut your mouth! Do
you know that the Raksasa Tribe wouldn't have been able to enjoy the peaceful lives for the past
few years, had it not been for what this honored guest did?'' She waved her hand furiously
and ordered, ''Drag Jack out to receive punishment of a hundred strikes of whipping.''
''Yes!'' The Raksasa around them didn't dare to disobey and immediately moved to drag Jack out
upon receiving the order.
Snap! Snap! Snap! Soon, the crackling sound of the whip hitting on flesh echoed through the hall,
followed by Jack's tortured cries. Instantly, every person in the hall was frightened to death at the
horrific sight of Jack being beaten until his skin and flesh teared and blood gushed out like a fountain
from his wounds. No one dared to object to the punishment in fear of the Raksasa Queen's wrath.

over only to find Jack in his miserable state. They couldn't bear to see one of their people suffer, and walked over
to the queen before stuttering, ''Your...Your Majesty! Please have mercy, Jack has contributed all these years...''
''That's enough!'' Natalie roared, her voice amplified in authority by her aura. Sensing her rage, the generals
simultaneously felt chills down their spines and retreated to the side wordlessly.
Finally, Natalie gestured for the punishment to stop just as Jack was close to being beaten to death. She then
took a deep breath before striding over to Darryl with an enticing smile. ''Jack offended you, how would you like
to have him punished?'' she asked.
Instantaneously, all eyes gathered on Darryl in awe. Every single one of them had thought that this kid would
face severe consequences for offending the mayor of Rock City. Who would have thought that the tables would
turn so quickly, that this insignificant man from the Nine Continent was in complete control over Jack's fate? He
was no ordinary nobody, but the true dictator of the situation!
The hall had fallen into complete silence, so much so that one could distinctly hear a sound as faint as a pin
dropping on the floor. Darryl smiled and replied in a calm tone, ''I mean, I do understand that after thousands of
years of banishment, the Raksasa Tribe would want to make up for the lost time now that you have finally
returned to the Nine Continents. However, that doesn't change the fact that business requires fairness and
integrity. Since you've already teached him a lesson, there is nothing more I would add to this. But I hope that
incidents like this will not happen again in the future.''
''Yes...I understand!'' Natalie nodded modestly in response like a child that haddone something wrong. The next
moment, she turned around to stare down at Jack and said, ''Jack, you are to renew the trading system and
legislations effect from today onwards. Any trade with the Nine Continents from now on must remain absolutely
just, or be prepared to lose your position as the Rock City mayor.''
''Yes, Your Majesty!'' Jack nodded frantically, before ordering his men, ''Hurry, get the trading
paperwork done immediately for Miss Yach.''

Right about now, Jack desperately wished that he could turn back time. He had thought that he
could increase the commission for his city and instead, ended up digging his own grave. Soon,
Jack's assistant paced in and respectfully assisted Cheyenne with the formalities. Reality had
finally hit Cheyenne as she struggled to contain how shakened she felt. She looked over at Darryl in
awe, thinking, 'This sworn brother of my master, who is he really? Even the queen of the Raksasa
Tribe has such respect for him.''
''Do..?'' Natalie slowly turned back around and bit her lip hesitantly before suggesting, ''Do you have
time after this? If it's alright with you, I would love to host a feast in your name.''
A feast? Darryl seemed to be shocked for a moment at the idea but recovered soon enough. He shook
his head with a smile and said, ''There is no need for that. I will come again to visit you when I have
the time.'' The situation with the Carter Family and Jewel remained uncertain at the moment, it was
hardly the time for a feast. Besides, Zhang Jue had eyes all across the Nine Continents, it was best to
play it safe.
