Chapter 182 - Heads Delivered to The Door
Chapter 182 Heads Delivered to The Door
Alex was not particularly surprised. He hurried to catch up with him, but he did not have to chase for long before he realized the abnormality and stopped immediately.
In the distance, the purple-robed old man was flying as he spat out blood. From time to time, he would turn around and take a look. He was relieved to find that Alex had not caught up with him.
However, what the purple-robed old man had not expected was that a loud bang suddenly sounded from his surroundings. Instantly, the purple-robed old man also realized the abnormality, but he did not have the ability to resist. There was a dense demonic aura in front of him, and it had already locked onto the purple-robed old man.
The purple-robed old man discovered that a five-colored light had appeared in front of him. In the middle of the light stood a Five-Color Peacock. It flapped its wings slightly, and a strong wind blew. A storm tens of times bigger than before had appeared.
It turned out to be the Guardian Spirit Beast of the Nicholas family clan.
The purple-robed old man immediately recognized this spirit beast. He wanted to erupt his magical power to resist, but he found that it was already too late. His whole being had already been swallowed by the storm. A few seconds later, even his aura was gone.
Then, the storm stopped, and the entire world regained its calm. It was as if nothing had happened, and the purple-robed old man no longer existed. Alex and the others were also very surprised to see this. “Could this be the legendary Guardian Spirit Beast of the Nicholas family clan?”
They had not expected to see the Five-Color Peacock, the guardian of the Nicholas family clan whom they had long heard of. They had not expected it to be even more powerful than the legend said it was.
Moreover, its aura was about to reach level-7. The Nicholas family clan was about to have a level-7 Guardian Spirit Beast.
Alex recalled his visit to the Nicholas family a few months ago. In just a few months, the Nicholas family had changed so much.
The City Lord was not too surprised. Although he was not in Winterfrost when the Nicholas family clan and the four large family clans had a conflict, he had heard about it later and visited the Nicholas family clan to express his concern. He had also seen the Guardian Spirit Beast of the Nicholas family clan.
Norton and Charles knew in their hearts that it must have been sent by their Old Ancestor.
As for Herbert and the others, their mouths were agape. They had never seen such a scene before.
In the ancestral hall of the Nicholas family clan in Winterfrost.
(Ding! Mission accomplished.]
(Received Rewards: Special-Grade Experience Talismans x5, Faith Doubling Talisman x1, Hundredfold Cultivation Speed Talisman x1, Guardian Spirit Beast Nurture Talisman x1)
When the Five-Color Spirit Beast killed the purple-robed old man, Romo heard the System notifications. The rewards this time were not too much. It was probably because the System had not detected much difficulty.
However, a tool that he had not seen before had appeared. It was the Guardian Spirit Beast Nurture Talisman.
(Guardian Spirit Beast Nurture Talisman: It can increase the Guardian Spirit Beast’s bloodline and talent. The effect on a baby beast will be doubled.]
This was indeed a good tool, but Romo did not use it immediately. Instead, he placed it in his inventory first. After enduring for a thousand miles, he used the five Special-Grade Experience Talismans. However, the number was too small. His level had only increased by a little, and it was not enough to advance to the next level.
Romo had also placed all the other tools in the inventory. The Faith Doubling Talisman would expire in two days, so he had to use this next.
After checking the rewards, Romo used the Visitation Talisman to check on Norton and the others. He also used the magic soul imprint to order the Five-Color Peacock to escort them back.
“What’s going on?” Romo suddenly discovered something amiss and quickly looked in the direction of the back door of the Nicholas family palace.
Suddenly, a strange expression appeared on Romo’s face. “I didn’t expect someone to deliver their heads to my door.” Although his tone was joking, his eyes were already full of killing intent. At the back door of the Nicholas family palace, there was a large forest. Ron usually cultivated here, and very few outsiders would come in. It was considered the secret base of the Nicholas family, and there were one or two servants guarding it. “Why did the Guardian Spirit Beast disappear? Where could it have gone?” “If you ask me, who can I ask this? This spirit beast might have been bored and had gone out for a walk.”
“No way. How can the Guardian Spirit Beast get out so easily? Could something big have happened?”
“Impossible. Even if something big happens, it has nothing to do with us. There will naturally be someone from the Nicholas family to deal with it.”
“You have a point. Do you think we can find a few more lost clansmen this time?”
“I hope so. This way, the Nicholas family clan can become stronger.” The two guards were chatting idly, not realizing that a figure had appeared behind them and had entered the Nicholas palace.
This figure was very well-hidden. Before entering the Nicholas palace, it had already snooped around every corner and then turned into a gust of wind, entering the door of the ancestral hall of the Nicholas family.
Outside the ancestral hall, there were servants walking up and down, but no one had seen this figure. This figure was an old man with a hunched back. He looked at the ancestral hall of the Nicholas family clan with excitement but also disbelief.
Then, the old man turned around and looked at the back door of the Nicholas family clan. He gave an order.
At this moment, one figure after another followed the old man and entered every corner of the Nicholas family clan.
Now, with just a command from the old man, they would emerge and slaughter the Nicholas family.
They were very well-concealed. Currently, there were people coming and going in the Nicholas palace, and no one had discovered them. Even Zoro, who had always been alert, had not discovered them.
“It’s not like that. You guys have done it wrongly. You have to follow the way I do it.”
“Yes, yes, yes. That’s right.” “Aiya, that’s not right. Both of you, practice a little more.” “Why are you so stupid? I’m so angry.”
“This way, yes, yes.”
This was Lily teaching others how to fight. Suddenly, the sword beside Lily moved without warning.
“Hmm?” Lily instinctively looked to the left.
“What is it?”
“Nothing. There seems to be a sound on the other side.”
Even so, Lily did not take it seriously and continued to practice.
On the tree directly above Lily’s line of view just now, there was a small figure.
Could she have discovered me?
The figure thought worriedly. He was relieved to find that Lily did not do anything else. He waited patiently on the tree for the Chief’s order.
His mission naturally was to kill the three children in front of him.
The hunched old man stood in front of the ancestral hall and looked at the ancestral tablets of the Nicholas family clan. His gaze stopped on the uppermost tablet for a while, as if he was looking for something.
