Chapter 949 Leaving
Leon fell from the sky. His Vital Energy surged when he neared the ground, and he landed steadily using the rebound from his Vital Energy
He watched as Gerald flew away, then frowned and asked, “What exactly happened just now?”
As soon as he finished speaking, he caught sight of a yellow dog sprinting past him at a remarkable speed At the city gate, a man resembling a beggar strode forward and vanished from sight within just a few steps
“That person “Leon’s Adam’s apple bobbed.
He didn’t dare to take a second look. He had a hunch that he might die if he did so
Was he the one who got rid of the Purple Elite Ghost, causing me to fall earlier?” he asked. Cold sweat began to break out on his back.
He stood unmoving at his spot, still in a daze after seeing the beggar disappear.
Above in the sky was Sauven, with disheveled hair and boundless Vital Energy.
He looked at Gerald’s distant figure and roared, “Nathanial, bring half your men to support Foliage Manor. I’ll continue to chase after him. I’ll make sure he dies here today!”
“Mr. Guerrero,” Leon’s quiet voice drifted into Sauven’s ear, “There’s a master who silently defeated the Purple Pioneer right under my nose. If we continue to pursue them, our lives could be in danger.”
“Huh? Really?” Sauven’s expression morphed into shock as he spoke into the phone.
Leon confirmed, “Yes! I thought I’d die if I took another look at that person.”
A look of uncertainty crossed Sauven’s face, but he didn’t dare to continue his pursuit.
Next to him, Arvin said, “Sauven, this is most likely the work of the Pierce family from Rime City. I’m afraid they’re the only ones in Havotune with such top-notch experts.”
“The Pierce family from Rime City!” Sauven shouted, his expression unreadable, “Turn around and head to
Foliage Manor immediately!”
Ten minutes later, the group arrived at Foliage Manor. The entire manor was set ablaze and was engulfed in a raging fire.
The color drained from Sauven’s face. His ice attribute quickly enveloped him as if wanting to extinguish the fire.
However, after some time, his expression fell. “This fire… My attribute can’t extinguish it!” He exclaimed.
Arvin walked forward and looked at the fire before saying with a frown, “I’m afraid this fire is a level higher than our attributes.”
“Hurry, get someone to put out the fire. We can’t let it spread underground!” Sauven roared.
He nearly flew into a rage but managed to maintain his last bit of composure.
The murder of Elton and the burning of Foliage Manor both happened in such a short time. Furthermore, all the culprits escaped without a trace. Not a single one of them was left behind.
At that moment, two figures were pacing back and forth on the outskirts of the City of Phoenix. There were almost no buildings in sight
Jacob looked in the city’s direction as he smoked cigarette after cigarette.
“Don’t worry! They’re so powerful. They’ll arrive safely,” Rylee reassured as he held Jacob’s hand. Upstodatee from Novel(D)ra/m/a.O(r)g
Jacob nodded and agreed, “Yes, I believe they will be alright.”
At some point, several figures appeared. Hector, Triston, Valery, Claude, and Carolyn descended from the sky.
“How was it?” Jacob asked happily when he saw them.
“It’s not a big problem. Where’s Boss? Is he back yet?” Carolyn asked.
Jacob shook his head and replied, “Not yet.”
Carolyn was shocked. “I’ll go back to have a look!” She exclaimed.
Valery pulled her back and said, “Don’t go back. Trust him.”
Carolyn looked at her with a frown.
After waiting a few minutes, they saw a figure cut through the dark sky.
“Boss!” Claude shouted excitedly.
Gerald flew down and retracted his wings. “Get in the car. Let’s go!”
They got into the car without hesitation. Jacob started the engine.
They could only drive themselves through this forest.
“What’s the situation like?” he asked while driving.
“Mission successful,” Triston said with a smile. “This time, the Four Ancient Families will probably feel the pain deep in their bones!” He announced triumphantly.
“Is Elton dead?” Jacob asked in excitement.
Gerald nodded, “They’re dead. They were even involved with two Flame Decayers from the Quintin family. I’m afraid one of the Four Ancient Families will be lost today.”
“Wouldn’t that cause internal conflicts?” Jacob asked again.
Gerald shook his head and replied, “I don’t think so. I’m just afraid that the Quintin family will be affected. By the way, there’s something I need to say.”
“What?” Everyone turned to look at him.
“I was being pursued when I escaped earlier. Someone blocked the entrance, and I was surrounded from both sides. I had planned to expose myself as the owner of the Dragon Bone to lure the murderer out, but suddenly the person who blocked me seemed to be attacked Their Purple Elite Ghost exploded. I suspect that someone is secretly helping us,” He said with a frown
“The Herman family?” Jacob asked.
Gerald replied, “I don’t know. I didn’t even feel the person making a move. That’s why it’s strange”
“Anyway, let’s not worry about it too much. What matters is that we come out safely now. Then we can go back to Earth!” Jacob said with a shrug
The rest of the group didn’t care any longer when they thought about returning to Earth.
They had missed the Earth immensely over the past six months.
They missed the short videos, the food, and their relatives on Earth.
Gerald looked at the rest and smiled.
The past six months’ harvest had been good. Of course, the biggest gain was that they were all safe and sound.
Together with Gerald, a total of eight people came to this planet. Everyone else returned without injury, apart from Charles.
They were prepared to face death when they came to this planet.
However, Gerald knew that this was just the beginning.
There might be a direct conflict with the Four Ancient Families when they come to this planet again. If everything goes well, Gerald might be able to contact some enemies of the Four Ancient Families, recruit them into the team, and then launch a real war against the Four Ancient Families. War meant casualties.
However, they didn’t want to think about that now. Right now, they just wanted to enjoy their victory and celebrate being able to return home.
“What a pity! You won’t have time to take your wedding photos,” Carolyn lamented as she looked at Gerald and Valery.
Triston laughed, “It’s not too late. It’s not a big deal if it’s a few days late. Have you finalized the design of your wedding dress? We can get someone in Ries City to make it, then find some nice scenic spots nearby to take photos. We can take more once we return to Earth. That should be enough.”
“That’s true!” Carolyn beamed. Valery blushed.
“I’ll be able to see my child in about half a month. I don’t know if it’s a boy or a girl. I don’t know if they’ll recognize me or if they’ll be able to call me Dad,” Claude mumbled,
“I miss the snacks on Earth,” Carolyn chimed in, licking her lips.
They rushed towards Ries City as they chatted.
Unbeknownst to them, an elderly man and a yellow dog were following closely behind in the darkness of the night, their movements unsteady.
