1457: Chapter 538: Various Demons and Monsters_4 1457: Chapter 538: Various Demons and Monsters_4 These precious ingredients were gathered by the Holy Water Palace in the East Sea over many years, yet it only took Xenia a few days to advance two levels!
Doesn’t this prove more effective than you practicing on the eve of battle?
It took Glenn Mitchell until he reached the South Gate of the Capital to co to his senses; he felt great regret and complained to Catherine, “Why didn’t you remind earlier?
I thought we had a good relationship.”
Catherine chuckled and, not bothering with him, went on her way.
What on earth gave you that impression?
Just because I helped you out when you couldn’t figure so things out before?
This ti, Lily is in direct competition with Xenia; it’s good enough that I’m not rubbing salt into your wound, and you expect to remind you?
Glenn Mitchell scratched his head in frustration while his sister Lily quietly pulled on his sleeve and whispered slyly, “Brother, it’s alright.
Miss Ava is saving a bowl for every day.”
Glenn Mitchell paused for a mont, his heart full of gratitude for Ava Bertram.
Although Mr.
Bertram had trained him for many years, he might not have been able to win Glenn Mitchell’s wholehearted loyalty – not because he was ungrateful, but because he still had that “awkward” ntality of the impoverished.
But this act of Ava’s completely won over Glenn Mitchell to their side.
Mr.
Bertram’s entourage entered the city through the South Gate of the Capital but suddenly stopped due to a commotion up ahead.
David, who was following Mr.
Bertram, imdiately said, “My lord, please wait.
I will handle it.”
Mr.
Bertram sat back in his seat, and with his subordinates nearby, he no longer needed to deal with the vast majority of matters personally.
However, the rest of the group still crowded forward, wanting to see what was going on.
Glenn Mitchell and his sister also went to check out the fuss.
At the City Gate, Peter Liam had been injured and was being helped by several acquaintances while a group of arrogant young n stood across from them.
Lily snorted, “So useless!
After being with us for so long, he can’t even beat so young dandies from the capital.”
Peter Liam’s face flushed red, as if it were worse than his injury, “They didn’t observe any martial code, four of them attacked at once…”
Lily’s eyes widened as soon as she heard this, and she stord over, “Is that true?” One of the young n across from her sneered, “Little Girl, the waters in the Capital run deep.
Don’t make a scene and get yourself and your family involved!”
David, at the scene, had already figured out what was happening and thought the situation was tricky.
He returned to his lord to report, “It’s the brother of the Imperial Noble Consort.”
The fifth prince had married early, but back when he was just a prince, no one had high expectations for him.
His consort’s family background was not prominent, and later he took on two more concubines.
After he beca Emperor of the Wood Dynasty, everyone in the nation was eagerly waiting for the birth of a prince, but the Empress had been unable to bear a son.
It was not until three months ago that an Imperial Concubine finally gave birth to the first prince, consolidating the nation and bringing relief to the court and the people.
That concubine was then promoted to Imperial Noble Consort, and her child is very likely to be the future crown prince.
As a result, the Imperial Noble Consort’s family strutted around in the Capital!
In the past, even the Crown Prince’s Consort had an insignificant family background, not to ntion these concubines.
The deanor of this family was essentially that of nouveau riche.
Although Peter Liam is related to the Emperor’s grandmother, the attackers clearly have more influence!
David was not afraid of their power; he was worried that if the matter was not handled well, it would put his master in a difficult position.
Mr.
Bertram asked, “How did the conflict start?”
David reported truthfully, “The other party tried to cut in line, Peter Liam refused to give way, and the four of them attacked him first, beating him up.” Mr.
Bertram then said, “Then deal with it accordingly…
Don’t hold Lily back.”
David found it strange that his master ntioned Lily.
By then, from the City Gate, there ca a series of shrieks.
Turning his head to look, he saw the trouble-making dandies had already been sent flying by Lily!
She was submissive in front of Ava but domineering when facing outsiders, her small palm able to break stones and catch tigers and leopards alive.
The remaining five or six people cursed and rushed forward.
Peter Liam yelled, “Lily, let help you!” But before he could even get close, the dandies had already been beaten and sent flying by Lily.
Lily turned around and gave Peter Liam a kick – he was experienced in dealing with her attacks, so he imdiately blocked himself with crossed arms, was sent flying a few ters but remained uninjured.
Lily snorted disdainfully, “Regardless of how many of them ganged up on you, if you couldn’t win, that ans you’re useless.”
Peter Liam chuckled foolishly.
