Episode 8: A Journey of Ten Thousand Leagues Chapter 53 – The Guest
Linley in the Northwestern Province could be said to be in a springtime state, and in the blink of an eye Bebe and ‘Anke’ of the No Brothers both possessed Saint Domain strength. There were four Saint realms in their group all of a sudden. Four Saint Domain powerhouses was something that neither the three major chambers of commerce nor the four major assassin organizations in the Yulan Continent could compare to.
This was an extremely terrifying hidden force.
Contrary to Linley, Walton in the imperial capital was extremely distressed.
On the wide practice field behind the Count’s residence, Walton was holding the family heirloom sword ‘Slaughter’ and training frantically, sweat dripping down his temples, but Walton seemed to know no fatigue and kept exercising.
Butler Healy watched quietly from the side, secretly shaking his head.
“Walden, like his father, is too attached to his feelings.”
Hiri had watched Hogg grow up, knowing the depth of Hogg’s feelings with Linley’s mother ‘Lina’, Lina had been taken captive back then, and Hogg had suffered for more than ten years, but Hogg had forced himself to endure it because he had to raise Linley and Walden.
When Hogg felt that Linley and Walden could already grow up independently, he went out of his way to inquire about his wife until he perished.
“This Wharton is the same, that His Majesty did not cut off his hopes, but only told him not to hurry. Saying that the Seven Princesses are in no hurry to be married off is all. Walton became like this ……”
Butler Healy sighed.
Butler Healy didn’t know that it wasn’t actually just Hogg and Walden, but Linley as well.
“Roar” With a beastly roar, only then did Wharton slowly stop the battle sword in his hand. After so many years of bitter cultivation, Wharton’s attainments on the battle sword were already very high, and the beast’s roar just now was precisely a phenomenon of the sword technique he had created being performed.
“Grandpa Healy.”
Wharton looked towards the butler, Hiri. A smile was squeezed out on his face.
After this venting, Walden’s mood was slightly better.
“Walden, don’t be too upset. There is still hope for you and the seventh princess.”
Ciri laughed. “The way I see it, His Majesty has been dragging his feet because he had a hard time choosing between you and Kailan. ……”
Walden nodded.
With regards to the current Emperor of the Imperial Lands, Walton was also very clear about it.
This was an emperor who valued talent, and was also considered decisive. However, the only shortcoming was – short-sightedness! Extremely short-sighted!
The entire Imperial Capital knew that.
For example, the Emperor’s only brother ‘Yulin’, the ruling family of the Southeastern Province was copied out by the Emperor more than twenty years ago because they had committed a crime, and there were no Saint realm powerhouses in that family. At that time, many clans had presumed to move into the Southeast Province. But in the end. The emperor actually let his younger brother, Duke Yulin, take control of the entire Southeast Province.
Where the emperor was closer, the emperor was very protective.
Kelan’s father, the left minister of the empire, ‘Jaddariel, also grew up with the emperor in those years, and the relationship is very good. After the Emperor ascended the throne, he naturally promoted Jaddariel, and eventually made Jadd the Left Minister of the Empire. The power is great. One person under ten thousand people.
The emperor and the left minister of the empire have such a good relationship, on the nearly perfect Kailan, naturally very loving.
Plus, Kailan himself was so outstanding. Now that Kailan is pursuing Nina, it is only natural for the Emperor to agree. However, Walton is also pursuing Nina, plus Nina herself also likes Walton. This made the Emperor hesitate.
Kellan, Walton. Both were excellent.
He spoiled Kellan, and he spoiled Nina.
Kellan’s father was his good brother, a pillar of the empire. But Walton was also a dragon blood warrior.
It was hard to choose!
“I also understand His Majesty’s heart, and I know that he won’t agree if I directly ask for a marriage this time, so it won’t be that easy for Nina and I to be together.”
Walden sighed.
“Walden, have faith in yourself.”
Butler Hilly encouraged.
Wharton squeezed out a smile, “Grandpa Hilly. I know the situation. His Majesty is unrivaled in the empire, and if there is anyone who makes him fearful. It is also only the Martial God. That’s why I participated in the Named Disciple Selection Contest in the first place. I wanted to get involved with the God of Wushu. As long as the Martial God can help me, then the matter is settled.”
Martial God. The Prime Pillar of the Yulan Empire.
One word from the Martial God was to abdicate the Emperor, and the Emperor wouldn’t dare to resist. After all, the Martial God was the founding emperor of the O’Brien Empire, and he was also the most pinnacle God-level powerhouse.
“Take your time, don’t rush.”
Butler Healy comforted.
“Lord Earl, the Seventh Princess is here.”
An attendant walked into the practice field and said respectfully.
“Nina is here?”
Walden was surprised.
Although the two were on good terms, Nina rarely came directly to his mansion. Walton immediately went to the side to rinse off and changed into clean clothes to meet Nina in the living room.
In the living room.
Nina’s face was filled with an excited smile, and the maid behind her laughed in a low voice, “Your Highness, what do you think Lord Earl’s expression will be when he learns of this news?”
“What expression will the big man have?”
Nina’s smile grew happier as she thought of this.
Thinking about it, Nina heard footsteps. Looking towards the outside,…… the figure as tall as a god of war then walked in. Nina looked at this magnificent body heart is very sweet. In her heart, Walden was her spiritual pillar.
“Nina, why did you run to me, are you not afraid that your father will blame you?”
Walden said as he walked over with a smile.
Nina said with a puff of her mouth, “If he blames me, then he blames me, I wanted to come anyway.”
Walden saw Nina’s lovely appearance, his heart surged with a wave of tenderness, directly sat down next to Nina and held Nina’s hand, inquiring, “Nina, looking at you and Ruth’s expression, it seems that there is something you are hiding from me ah?”
Nina’s nose wrinkled as she said smugly, “Nothing can be hidden from you. I’ll tell you the good news.”
“Good news, what good news, can’t it be that your father has changed his mind and decided to let me marry you?”
Walden said casually.
The emperor was a golden tongue, how could he take back what he said so easily?
“Of course not this news.”
Nina had a big smile on her face.
“Then what is it?”
Nina’s expression became serious: “Two days ago, you asked my father for marriage, and my father didn’t agree. It was hard on my heart, so I came up with a solution. I went to find brother Kellan.”
“Looked for Kellan?”
Walden’s eyebrows lifted, Kellan was his love rival. “What did you look for him for?”
Nina giggled playfully, Well, don’t get any ideas. I just went to have a nice talk with brother Kellan and I told him. I’m just like a brother to him. Growing up together, truly like a brother. I pleaded with brother Kellan to be able to help us both out a bit, and I told brother Kellan that I wouldn’t be able to live without you, Walden.”
A pang went through Walden’s heart.
“Brother Kellan was silent for a long time, and in the end he promised to go and speak to His Majesty and give up on proposing to me. To fulfill both of us.”
Nina had a wide smile on her face.
“Kellan gave up?”
Walden was taken aback.
Walton had been in the imperial capital for a long time and had been in contact with Kellan many times. Kellan’s feelings for Nina, Walton could completely feel it. It was completely sunk in, and Kellan could actually choose to give it up. Walden was shocked in his heart. At the same time, he also admired Kellan a little.
“Brother Kellan gave up, the others are not good ground. It’s that Ranma who can’t compare to you in Father’s heart.”
Nina’s face was full of happiness, “Big man, no one can stop us anymore.”
Excitement!
Unable to suppress a feeling of happiness filled his entire chest, a love rival that he originally had the biggest headache with had just automatically given up. This kind of sudden surprise. It caused Walden to have a sense of vertigo.
Looking at Nina’s bright smiling face in front of him, Walton was kind of touched like never before.
“Right, no one can stop us now.”
Walden held Nina tightly in his arms.
The group of Linley, Bebe, Heilu, the Rebecca sisters, Jenny, Sessler, and the five Barker brothers left Cloud Peak Town and traveled to the provincial city of Bazil.
Outside the Jax family castle, in the provincial town of Bazil.
Linley’s group of people arrived in front of the door.
“Who are you people?”
The guards of the castle shouted from a long distance, the Jax Family was the local emperor of the Northwestern Province. Their lair wasn’t something that just anyone could enter.
The oldest of the five brothers, ‘Gates’, immediately yelled, “Quickly go and report to MacKenzie, and say that my Lord Linley is here.”
“Who’s yelling outside!”
A familiar shout rang out, and Linley looked carefully towards the gate, and sure enough, the gorgeously dressed young master ‘Albert’ walked out surrounded by his underlings.
Albert’s face immediately changed when he saw Linley’s group.
“Your name is Lei, right? How dare you come to my house!”
Albert’s face was filled with sinister intent, “I didn’t realize that six people from the Illuminati couldn’t kill you. But my Jax family. It’s not something you can bully just because you want to.”
At the same time, Albert also noticed Jenny behind Linley, as well as the Rebecca sisters.
Jenny was as delicate and colorful as a lotus flower in the water. The Rebecca sisters, on the other hand, had a special sense of mystery. That sense of mystery was extremely appealing.
“How come all the beautiful women have gone to this guy.”
Albert was upset in his heart.
“Dare to spread wildness in my Jax family, come on. Bring him to me.”
Albert immediately ordered and drank.
The surrounding guards and escorts immediately rushed up, but before Linley could do anything, the five Barker brothers rushed over.
“Leave them alive.”
Linley said blandly.
“Got it.”
Gates said excitedly.
“As long as they don’t die.”
There was also a hint of excitement in Buck’s eyes, their five brothers were the famous killing generals of the eighteen northern duchies, leading their armies to kill an unknown number of people.
These five super strong men were like fighting machines, grabbing each guard like a chicken, and then easily throwing each guard like a sandbag in front of the castle gate. This throwing force of the five Barker brothers was not small, and those level 5 and level 6 warriors heard bones breaking as they directly smashed into the ground.
“You guys ……”
Albert’s whole body trembled slightly in anger, “You guys are too arrogant, you dare to do this even in front of my Jax’s door.”
“What happened?”
Only an angry shout could be heard, from the castle another group of people came out, the leader was a middle-aged man with a country face. Albert immediately bowed and said, “Father, a few of them are spreading wildness in our place, and they even injured our guards.”
“Oh?”
This middle-aged man was none other than the current patriarch of the Jax Family, Oden Jax.
Jax looked coldly at Linley’s group of people.
“Haha, brother Linley, you’re here.”
Only a loud laugh could be heard, followed by a residual shadow that flashed from the distant sky before arriving in front of the castle’s door.
The white hair, the body as straight as a javelin.
When Oden, Albert and a large group of people saw the visitor, their original arrogance was scared and immediately collected, and they all bowed respectfully.
“Oden, what are you guys doing?”
MacKenzie looked at Alden with cold eyes.
Oden was stunned and didn’t dare to say anything, he had just heard the words that McKensie had said, he had addressed ‘Brother Linley’, he still dared to say anything.
“It has nothing to do with this Oden, it’s just that his son Albert had some grudges against me in the first place, so now he’s just taking personal revenge.”
Linley said with a faint smile.
“Grudges?”
MacKenzie nodded.
Glancing coldly at Albert, McKensie looked at Alden, “Alden, have Albert go to Deke County City to assist his uncle, the provincial city of Bazil, he’s not fit to stay.”
Albert’s face went white for a moment.
Unfit to stay in the provincial city of Bazil, this sentence was obvious, depriving him, Albert, of the right to succeed the patriarch. And still, he was relegated to a county town, and was only assisting his earthly uncle, not being the town’s lord. His future days could not even catch up with Keane.
“Yes, grandfather.”
Alden didn’t dare to have the slightest doubt.
MacKenzie’s position in the Northwest Province was the same as the Martial God’s position in the O’Brien Empire. Even if he asked Oden to give up the patriarch position, Oden wouldn’t dare to complain.
“Brother Linley, I’m so sorry, I just went out for a stroll, but I’ve been slacking.”
McKensie warmly greeted Linley into the castle.
Linley also smiled as he stepped into the castle with McKensie, and that Alden also respectfully followed behind. As for the pale-faced Albert, no one cared anymore.
