Episode 8: A Journey of Ten Thousand Miles Chapter 52 – The Beirut Family
“Kellan is excellent, both personally, and family-wise.”
Walden embraced Nina and said softly, “I’m most worried that your father’s emperor will bestow your marriage to Caelan.”
Nina nodded her head and said, “Father is very high on Kailan, Kailan’s magical talent is very high, in the future, he will become a ninth level Great Magician with a high degree of certainty, and he even has the hope of becoming a Holy Realm Magical Instructor. The empire has a lot of holy realm powerhouses, but most of them are holy realm warriors, holy realm magical guides are too rare.”
Walden also felt threatened by Kelan.
Although that Ranma was considered to be from the Martial God Sect, he was only a registered disciple. And his own family wasn’t that powerful. And he, Walton, was a Dragon Blood Warrior after all. As long as the Imperial Emperor wasn’t dizzy, he would definitely choose him.
But Kailan’s competition with Walton was different. His father was a high-powered left minister.
“Nina.”
Walton’s expression turned serious. “Eh?”
Nina, who was in Walton’s arms, looked up at Walton.
“I’m going to personally ask His Majesty for his hand in marriage when I have an audience with him, so that His Majesty will marry you to me.”
Walton said with a solemn expression.
Nina was stunned, then a look of ecstasy appeared on her face.
“Really?”
Nina was very excited.
“En.”
Walton nodded, “Nina, how about you communicate with your father beforehand and probe him first.”
Nina helplessly shook her head and said, “This thing I’m not told you, my father himself is not sure, he just said no hurry, no hurry …… But father’s impression of you is very good. I’m not sure if I’m not talking to you, but my father himself is not sure. If you really go to ask for marriage, there is a lot of hope.”
Nina was also looking forward to it.
Several of her sisters, except for one marriage that was relatively perfect and consensual. None of the other weddings had been too good. It was all political necessity.
Walden nodded slightly.
“Don’t worry, Nina, I won’t let anyone take you away from me.”
Wharton hugged Nina tightly. Nina also leaned on Wharton’s sturdy chest. On the outskirts of the city, in a forest on the west side of Cloud Peak Town, Linley, who had already transformed into a Dragonblood Warrior, was fighting with Bebe against each other.
“Bebe, don’t force me.”
Linley said helplessly as he held his Black Yul heavy sword, “You’re treating me like this, or else, I’ll just have to use Earth Upanishad.”
“Hehehe, boss. I know you can’t give up.”
Bebe also floated in mid-air, spitting out human words and said.
Once a Magical Beast reached the Holy Realm, it could change its size at will, as well as being able to spit out human words. It was only to turn into a human body. Yet, it needed to reach the divine level. Nowadays, the entire Yulan continent. Nowadays, in the entire Yulan Continent, only the king of the Forest of Darkness and the king of the Wraith Mountain Range are able to turn into human beings.
As for Bebe, it was unknown how many more years it would take.
“You fellow.”
Linley sighed, “I just reached the Saint realm not long ago, and my speed and defense caught up to you. You immediately entered the Saint realm again, and your speed is surprisingly even more perverse.”
Moving speed, however, and sword wielding speed were two different concepts.
Sword wielding speed was far more than moving speed, and although Linley was inferior to Bebe in moving and dodging, the Black Yul heavy sword was still able to block Bebe’s ground. So facing Bebe. Linley was generally standing still. It could only put up a stance to defend.
“Hehehe.”
Bebe smiled to himself.
Actually, Linley’s Earth Upanishad was still a threat to Bebe. After all, Earth Upanishad almost ignored exterior defenses. It was useless for Bebe to have a strong defense.
But how could Linley lay a harsh hand on Bebe?
So. Bebe was deliberately pissing off Linley here.
“Alright, I’ve got two claws on me too, so you’re comfortable.”
Linley smiled and stroked Bebe’s head, “Let’s go, get ready to go back and eat.”
With that, Linley resumed his human form while changing into new ground clothes.
“I know boss is the best.”
Bebe flew onto Linley’s shoulder and laughed playfully.
Nowadays, amongst Linley’s group, if Linley didn’t use the Earth Upanishad, no one would be a match for Bebe. Bebe was a genuine Saint realm magical beast.
“Bebe, what kind of magical beast would you say you are?”
Linley walked down the road, chatting casually with Bebe.
“I don’t know.”
Bebe shook his little head quickly. Linley suddenly recalled a scene in his head and looked at Bebe in surprise: “Bebe, do you remember back when we concluded the equality contract. I asked you what your name was, and you said, your name is Bei, and Bei …… didn’t say it clearly.”
The scene at that time Linley remembered very clearly. What was it called?”
Linley said directly in his heart.
The black shadow mouse was a little excited, “Bei, Bei ……”
Linley froze and looked at the little shadowrat.
“What is the little shadowrat talking about?”
Linley didn’t understand at all.
The whiskered Derinkelwart said, “Linley, this little Shadowmouse is still in the toddler stage, it can’t speak the exact syllables yet, that is, if it communicates with your soul, I’m afraid that it will only be able to tell you simple meanings.”
“En, you said Bei, Bei something or other, I’ll call you Bei Bei, how’s that?”
Linley looked at the little shadow mouse smilingly.
The little shadow mouse had a contemplative look, then nodded cheerfully. Lei had taken such a name.
“I said all that?”
Bebe was stunned.
“Yeah.”
Bebe responded, “I remember when I was very, very young, and at that time, my eyes were still open. I heard a very kind voice.”
Linley immediately looked at Bebe, who had never heard it before.
Magical beasts were only born and their eyes weren’t open. It was quite normal. At that time, Bebe should have been born not long ago. That memory was so distant that if Linley didn’t mention it, Bebe wouldn’t even be able to recall it.
“That voice told me that I’m from the Bei something clan. However, it instructed me to hide within your family’s deserted ancestral house and not to run around. Then that voice disappeared.”
Bebe was puzzled. “The Bei What clan?”
Linley queried.
“I can’t remember. It seems to be Bei, Bei …… ah.”
Bebe’s small eyes lit up, “Beirut, yes, it seems like the ground said Beirut. That voice told me I was part of the great Beirut family. It also told me not to run around. It’s dangerous out there. So I stayed in the deserted ancestral house of the boss’s family and have been slowly growing up.”
Linley drifted off. “The Beirut family?”
Linley wondered, “Do magical beasts have families as well?”
Bebe shook his head blankly, “I don’t know, I was born without parents, in your family’s deserted ancestral house, only able to eat those stones and whatnot.”
Linley silently memorized the name in his mind – the Beirut family!
Linley was pretty sure that he didn’t seem to have heard of the Beirut family among the powerful families of the Yulan Continent. It was just that this family should be a magical beast family.
Magical beasts had families?
Linley didn’t know, because he wasn’t a magical beast.
Bebe didn’t know either, he grew up without parents.
Linley had also spent ten days in Cloud Peak Town. According to Linley’s agreement with MacKenzie Land, it would be enough to visit the Jax family within a month.
“Big brother Linley, there’s a letter for you.”
Jenny said as she ran in from outside in a flurry of excitement.
“Oh, it should be from the Dawson Chamber of Commerce.”
A letter from the Dawson Chamber of Commerce in January. Linley immediately walked out. There was a young man outside holding a horse. When that youth saw Linley, he immediately said respectfully, “Lord Lei, this is your letter.”
Linley took the letter and smiled, “You don’t need to be here for the next month.”
The young man looked at Linley in confusion.
“I will no longer be here at this time next month.”
Linley had long since made the decision to set off for the Jax family in a few more days.
His own injuries had long since healed, and he had stepped into the Holy Realm after his transformation. It was also time to go see his brother.
With Walden, it had been a long, long time since he’d seen him, and Linley’s heart had always been attached to this only brother of his.
“Aye. Lord Lei.”
That youth respectfully said. And then he rode off on his steed.
As for Linley, he opened the letter, which contained quite a bit about the basic situation of the continent such as the Illuminati, as well as information about Reno, George, and Yale. The last was about Walden.
“George is really something.”
Linley marveled in his heart.
In the Yulan Empire land George. With the support of his own Huashi family, he had advanced all the way up the career ladder, and he himself had a high level of talent. Most importantly – the third prince of the Yulan Empire land succeeded to the throne and became the Emperor of the Yulan Empire.
Because before the third prince succeeded the throne, George and the third prince relationship is very good, the two people’s political thinking is also very close, now the third prince succeeded the throne. Now that the third prince has succeeded to the throne, George has become the youngest minister of the Magnolia Court of the Magnolia Empire.
There are only twelve ministers in the Magnolia Pavilion. Every position is very high, and George is now the deputy of the right minister of the Magnolia Empire.
“Reno wouldn’t be able to catch up to George.”
Linley laughed, and then he carefully read some of the messages about Walden, and Linley probably still knew about Walden’s current affairs.
Now taking a look.
“What!”
Linley was stunned, “Walton has asked the Imperial Emperor for his hand in marriage?”
This news Dawson’s Chamber of Commerce had also just reached the provincial city of Bazil, and this matter had happened just a few days ago.
“This emperor didn’t agree?”
Linley frowned as he looked at the content, “Fortunately, although it didn’t agree. But the words aren’t dead either.”
According to the description on the letterhead, the Imperial Emperor had been dragging his feet.
Na Lan Mo had long ago gone to beg for a marriage, and the Imperial Emperor had not agreed, and now that Walton had gone to beg for a marriage, the Imperial Emperor still had not agreed. He also said that Nina was still young and not in a hurry.
Nina is twenty-one years old, not small.
Just Nina magic and martial arts dual cultivation, practicing water magic is very beneficial to the body. Nina’s lifespan will definitely be very long, and it won’t be difficult for her to live to be three or four hundred years old. In that case, there was really no rush to get married.
“The son of an Imperial Left Minister, and a named disciple of the Martial God Sect.”
Linley instantly recognized that his brother’s greatest rival was that son of the Empire’s Left Minister, a magician named Kelan.
“It seems like the situation isn’t very good.”
Linley’s brows locked up before a cold light flashed in his eyes, “No matter what, I can’t let Walden repeat my old ways. Tomorrow, tomorrow we’ll go to the Jax family, and after completing our agreement, we’ll set off directly for the imperial capital.”
Linley made his decision.
But just at this time – “My lord, my lord.”
Gates’ familiar voice rang out, Gates should be the most lively of the five brothers.
“My lord.”
It wasn’t just Gates, there were others whose voices rang out.
Linley returned to the courtyard in confusion, and at this time, several of Gates’ people rushed over, all of them with ecstatic looks on their faces.
“What’s so joyful about it, all of them like this?”
Linley said with a smile.
“Second brother, second brother, he’s reached level nine as well.”
Gates was the first to say.
“Second brother, Anke, Transformation can also reach the Holy Realm.”
Next to him, the oldest third, Black Shark, also said in surprise.
Linley was stunned instead.
The five Barker brothers, after Barker had reached rank nine and possessed Saint Domain strength, those four brothers who were all at the peak of rank eight were all struggling. He hadn’t expected another one to reach rank nine.
“Me, Bebe, Barker, Anke, there’s already four Saint Realms at once.”
Linley had never heard of any family with four Saint realms. And the most damning thing was that the other three of the five …… Barker brothers could break through at any time.
Linley himself didn’t even notice that the corners of his own mouth were crooked with laughter.
Maybe tomorrow someone will tell him that so-and-so of the five brothers has also broken through, and that would be another Holy Realm ah.
Linley felt more and more that he had been too wise to save the five Barker brothers in the first place. Nowadays, aside from Barker and Anke, the other three brothers were practically prepared Saint realm powerhouses.
