Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
In the days after the Old Ancestor Romo had left, the Nicholas family clan continued to live a peaceful life. Everything was arranged and carried out in an orderly manner.
No one in the Nicholas family knew that their Old Ancestor had left the family clan territory.
The birthday banquet of the Empress of the Sebastian Kingdom was about to arrive. All the large factions and large family clans in the country had received invitations to attend the banquet and celebrate together.
The powerful and famous Nicholas family clan had naturally been invited, and the royal family had personally come to invite them.
The Nicholas family had sent four people to attend the banquet in the capital. They were the family head Norton, the strongest in the family, Ron, and Dick, and also the adorable girl, Lily.
A few days before the banquet, the four of them, the Seventh Prince, Quinn, and the Ninth Princess, Norlis, had taken the Sacred Mist Ferry to the capital.
With the warm invitation from the two royal family members, the four members of the Nicholas family stayed in the Marquis Residence, which was close to the Imperial City.
The master of the Marquis Residence was Sana, the elder brother of the Empress of the Sebastian Kingdom. He was also the uncle of Quinn and Norlis.
In the senate of the Sebastian Kingdom, there were not many people who supported the Seventh Prince, Quinn. He was a little weaker than the previous few princes, and his uncle, Sana, was the strongest among those who supported him.
In the eyes of the others, since the four of them from the Nicholas family could live in the Marquis Residence, it meant that the family clan was almost bound to Prince VII.
After all, until now, the other princes had not come to rope in the Nicholas family, and it seemed that they did not plan to come into contact with them.
He did not know the exact situation of the others. In any case, Prince VII had already made contact with the Nicholas family when they were in Winterfrost. After that, he kept in close contact with them. He could be said to be ahead.
The others probably knew about this too, so they had not made any move for the time being.
From the day the four from the Nicholas family had come to stay in the Marquis Residence as distinguished guests, there had been a steady stream of visitors, including many dignitaries.
With the current strength and reputation of the Nicholas family, no one in the entire Sebastian Kingdom dared to look down on them.
Of course, this had to do with their relationship with the Divine Mountain Immortal Island and the potential of the Nicholas family, including the two strongest experts in the family who had been revealed to the public. The various large factions in the country were all trying to get close to them.
Soon, it was the Empress’s birthday banquet.
That day, the entire capital was in a festive mood. It was all about celebrating with the citizens.
In the Imperial City, a banquet had been set up. All the factions in the senate had come to attend the banquet. The powerful factions in the country had also sent people over to congratulate them. Even a few envoys from neighboring countries had rushed over from overseas to deliver gifts of great value.
Ron and the other three entered the Imperial City with Sana and his family from the Marquis Residence. They were brought to the few banquet tables in the center and sat down at one of the tables.
Quinn and Norlis were also sitting among them.
Here, Ron also saw many familiar faces, including the Great Elder of the Sky Blue Magic Academy and the City Lord of Winterfrost, Lein Dupont…
“Ron, that… is the Great Elder of the Gale Wind Island.”
Quinn leaned over to Ron’s side and reminded him softly. His gaze swept across the white-haired old man who was only a short distance away.
At this moment, this person also glanced over and then he retracted his gaze. All this while, he had been expressionless.
There were many people present. They had wanted to see if the Gale Wind Island and the Nicholas family would fight, but they were very disappointed. Thereafter, many of them also looked away from the two sides.
Although the guests had already taken their seats in twos and threes, the banquet had not officially begun.
Not long after Norlis had sat down, she became bored. She turned to Lily, who was also fidgeting in her seat, and said, “Don’t sit here! There’s still a long time before the banquet starts!”
“Lily, come and follow Sister! The big turtle in the Imperial Garden might have surfaced!”
“Alright, alright!” Lily replied with a smile. “Let’s go and take a look!”
In the few days in the capital, Norlis had already brought her to many places in the Imperial City to play. She had seen many interesting things, including the level-6 Mystic Spirit Sacred Turtle guarding the bottom of the garden pool. It rarely came out of the water.
The banquet had not officially begun, but most of the people had arrived. At this moment, everyone was chatting with each other in a familiar manner. Norton went over to chat with Lein Dupont, and many people had come over to Ron and Dick’ side to expand their social circle.
… . .
In the depths of the Imperial City, there was a royal forbidden ground called the Soul Nurture Hall. Usually, only a few people from the royal family could enter.
If one approached without permission, even a descendant of the royal family would not be able to escape death!
At this moment, a person dressed as a eunuch had passed through the maze of corridors and arrived at the door to the Soul Nurture Hall.
Looking at the tall and erect door in front of him, a strange glint flashed in his eyes. He raised his hand and slapped the golden talisman into the void in front of him.
Buzz… With a buzzing sound, the formation appeared.
What appeared in front of him was the energy shield of the Magic Protective Formation. The golden barrier rippled a few circles of runes as if it was about to open in the next moment. There was a hint of joy in his eyes.
However, in the next moment, his expression changed drastically and he retreated. He activated the magical power of a level-7 Great Archmage and was about to flee.
“Hmph!” A loud snort sounded.
The level-7 Great Archmage, who had just taken a step back, was immediately pressed to the ground.
An old man in a golden magic robe appeared at the door of the hall in a flash. He shouted expressionlessly, “A rat dares to be presumptuous and come to the Soul Nurture Hall!”
The commotion here had been sensed by a group of armed guards patrolling nearby. When they arrived at the scene, they all knelt down before the old man.
The person at the front of the line said in fear, “I have failed in my duty! May…”
“Cut the crap and quickly bring the person down for questioning!” The old man interrupted. “His accomplices may still be in the palace. Go and investigate quickly!”
“Yes!” The captain of the guards stood up and was about to take the person away.
The person, who was dressed like a eunuch, suddenly looked up. Madness suddenly burst in his eyes, and his pupils collapsed into the vertical pupils of a magical beast. A strange color crept up his neck to his face!
The expression of the old man standing at the door of the hall changed, and he exerted strength.
Crack! After the sound of bones breaking, the strange head twisted behind and he died!
Seeing this scene, the guard, who had just gotten up, was so frightened that he fell to the ground. His knees hurt, but he was also at a loss. Ah… the person had died.
The old man frowned in thought, a little surprised.
This person’s magical power had already been restrained by him, so how could he continue to play tricks? Perhaps he should not have killed him directly just now…
Just as the old man was pacing around in thought, he suddenly saw something from the corner of his eye. The surprise in his heart immediately turned to horror!
This person was clearly dead, but now…
Those strange tendons were still spreading, and they had already covered his entire face!
The pupils clearly did not have the spirit of a living person, but there was a strange red light flickering in them. It seemed to have accumulated to a particular point, and the original extremely bizarre and sinister tendons instantly turned black!
As a top Great Archmage, the golden-robed old man’s expression twisted in shock.
A terrifying powerful demonic aura was erupting violently from the dead person!!
