The Sovereign Dragon Ring

Episode 187's

The silent wilderness.

Dozens of people who were escorting the cars were all dead. The black blood coming out from their bodies made the scene even more sinister. Holmer, in turn, was smashed to death with just a single blow from Haeru. Jenne and Keane, who had witnessed all this from the train, were completely stunned.

“Sister Ley. "Keane called out with worry. Jenne's face was also a bit pale.

Just as Linley was about to respond, the old maid, Lambert, who was riding the carriage suddenly called out in shock as she stared at Holmer's corpse. "He! He's the deadliest killer in Cerre City, Holmer. The strange old man who calls himself a pharmacist. ”

"Holmer? Grandpa Lambert, who are you talking about? "Keane looked at Lambert.

Lambert took a deep breath. “Young master, young lady, this Holmer is a very dangerous individual inside the City of Cerre. In the past, when I served your mother in the city, I met her several times. At that time, Count Wade had mentioned this Holmer to your mother as well. This Holmer is a highly skilled poison user. Although he was only a warrior of the sixth rank, he had once killed a warrior of the ninth rank. ”

Only now did Jenne and Keane understand.

Linley, listening to the side, nodded as well.

“Holmer is very greedy. Most likely, his actions this time were at the direction of senior Madame as well. "Lambert's face is very solemn. "Madame senior really wants to kill you!"

"With Ley's older brother, we have nothing to fear!" Keane is very confident. Jenne also looked confidently at Linley.

"Enough . Let's leave immediately so we can arrive faster at Cerre. "Said Linley directly. Linley's group immediately rushed towards the prefectural city of Cerre, leaving a cloud of dust on the deserted road.

Prefectural city of Cerre. This was a city with around two to three hundred thousand people. The red wall stretched into the distance. In terms of architecture, Cerre buildings tend towards decoration.

Keane pushed open the train door. Seeing the beautiful and majestic city before them, Keane's heart was filled with boundless ambition. His eyes twinkled, and he said, “From today on, I will become the ruler of this prefecture city. ”

Outside the city gate.

"Black panther?" When the gatekeeper saw Linley mountain from a distance, they immediately called out to the other guards nearby, "Quickly, someone went to talk to Madam. The person he was talking about arrived. ”

"Good . ”

A gatekeeper immediately ran towards the hotel located closest to the city gate, rushing to the second floor. At this moment, there was a soldier stationed outside the stairs. Seeing that it was the gatekeeper running towards here, the soldier allowed him to pass by.

“Mrs Countess. "The guard fell respectfully to one knee.

"Madam Countess, the expert riding the black panther you spoke of has arrived. There's a train behind him. ”

"What?" Before Madam Wade reacted, her two brothers standing behind her screamed in fear.

Madame Wade frowned. "Go now. ”

"Yes nih . "The guard respectfully withdrew.

Right now, Madam Wade's two brothers were getting panicked. His eldest brother hurriedly said, “Kak, they completely survived the trip to Cerre. Could Holmer, that strange old man, fail? ”

"It's hard to say . ”

Madame Wade frowned. “Perhaps the expert with the black panther escorting the two siblings in the village did not come on the main road from Redsand City. Perhaps they deliberately took a detour and caused Holmer and the others to miss them. ”

Hearing his words, his two brothers could only nod.

Indeed, it was highly likely that their opponents had cleverly taken a detour towards the City of Cerre.

"Then what should we do now?" Madame Wade's two brothers looked at her.

“Down and greet them. "Smiles appeared on Madame Wade's face. “Two of my beloved children have returned, having suffered for many years. They finally came back. As their loving aunt, how could I not welcome them? ”

And as she spoke, Madame Wade went down the stairs.

Just as they were walking out of the main door of the hotel, Madam Wade saw a tall and sturdy man with a heavy sword on his back who was riding a handsome black panther, as well as the familiar face of Lambert.

"Oh, Lambert, haven't seen each other in a long time. ”Monya Wade immediately called in a high voice.

Linley, Jenne, Keane, and Lambert all swung their heads to look at him. Lambert started, then respectfully said, “Mrs senior. ”

Madame Wade laughed warmly. “These two kids are Jenne and Keane. Jenne is even prettier than before, and she looks more like her mother right now. Keane is not the kid he used to be. He's even more handsome now. ”

Jenne and Keane can both recognize Madame Wade.

Although almost eight years had passed, Madame Wade's appearance had not changed much, except for a slight frown in the corner of her eye.

“Mad senior. "Jenne and Keane both paid their respects.

"Excellent, extraordinary. And there's no need to be polite. "Mrs Wade chuckled, then looked at Linley. "And this is?"

“This is Ley's brother. "Keane hurriedly replied.

"Ley?" Madam Wade's eyelids flickered, then she laughed. "Oh, Sir. Leys. I imagine it must have been you who protected them and drove them to the City of Cerre. I really have to thank you on behalf of Jenne and Keane. Come on, let's all go to the castle. Tonight, I will arrange an amazing banquet for my two poor little children. ”

The city governor's castle is a square block, and the view is quite impressive.

“What a useless person. "After hearing the news delivered by the courier knights, Madam Wade was even more furious.

Holmer is a chess piece he trusts.

But now, after Holmer had failed, Mrs Wade felt extremely frustrated.

"With that Master. Ley is present, it would be very difficult for me to kill Keane. "Mrs Wade was very angry. "Poisoned? The poison used by ordinary poison masters would not be able to escape detection. A killer? How many can deal with this Ley? "

“It looks like there is only one method left. "Fears are disappearing from Mrs Wade's eyes. The only thing left was self-confidence and heartlessness.

Inside the enormous dining room in the castle, a gigantic glass chandelier had been lit, emitting a brilliant and dazzling light on the room. All the nobles of Cerre City are present today.

"I've heard that Count Wade's son has returned. I wonder how Madame Wade will handle this. ”

"Who knows? But Mrs Wade would definitely not give up her authority. ”

“Mrs Wade is so cruel. Sadly for her, the baby died in the arms of a woman. Really joke. '' The various nobles chatted in gentle tones.

Who among them did not know that Madame Wade was a tyrant, dominant woman? But since they were living in Cerre City, at least they would mock him personally. They did not dare to openly offend him.

“Monya Wade has arrived. ”

Instantly, all the gossiping nobles stopped their discourse. They all turned to look towards Madam Wade, who had just descended from the stairs. Madam Wade still looked as graceful and arrogant as before.

Madame Wade enjoyed the attention of the people present. He tilted his head slightly as he went down.

"Everyone . "Mrs Wade laughed. “Today is a joyous occasion. My two poor children, who suffered outside for eight years, are finally back today. ”

At this moment, two more people suddenly appeared on the stairs.

One was a young man wearing a black man suit, while the other was a golden haired young woman wearing a white, full body gown. They came out together, and the eyes of many nobles shone.

Although Jenne dressed very simply, when matched to her appearance, her figure, and her kind and innocent behavior, she was a soul-shaking sight. Many of the young nobles present decided to leave later and asked who the girl was.

"Jenne, Keane, come on. "Mrs Wade called them warmly.

Jenne and Keane walked down the stairs together, standing beside Madame Wade. Mrs Wade called warmly, “This is Jenne. Look how beautiful she is. And this handsome young man is Keane. "Mrs Wade sighed emotionally. “Jenne and Keane finally escaped their bitter lives. But their mother, my sister .. ”Mistress Wade's eyes turned red, as if she was about to cry.

“Madame senior, if the second madame knew how much attention you had on her, she would definitely be very touched. "An ancient voice sounded, and Lambert walked with Linley by his side.

Madame Wade glanced at Lambert.

Lambert was previously the second most loyal mistress' servant. Even after the second mistress fell into trouble, she continued to follow him without complaining.

Jenne and Keane were also very unhappy.

They knew that the reason for their mother's death and the eight bitter years they had suffered were all caused by the senior mistress before them. Jenne knew how to hide her thoughts, but fourteen-year-old Keane scoffed angrily, “Madame senior, why have you not visited us during these eight years? We missed you so much. ”

Madame Wade's expression did not change. He sighed, “For so many years, I have worked on behalf of Cerre City, and I have never had the time. Every time I think about this, I feel like I treated you both wrongly. ”

Linley suddenly laughed and said directly, "Mrs Wade, Count Wade has now died, and Keane is his successor. The reason he was back at this moment was to take the position of city governor. Mrs Wade, I wonder if you have already decided on a date for Keane to take over the position of city governor? "

Everyone in the dining room fell silent after hearing these words.

All the nobles present knew that the main act of the drama had begun.

At the same time, all the nobles were staring at Linley in confusion. They did not know where this youngster came from, for him to dare to boldly and directly say these words.

"Mr . Leys. "Mistress Wade's face became violent, and she said coldly," As their aunt, I must thank them for taking Jenne and Keane to Cerre City. But the question of Keane taking over the governorship is an internal affair of our clan. It's inappropriate for you, an outsider, to be involved, isn't it? ”

Keane immediately denied, "And who said Ley's older brother was an outsider?"

"If he's not an outsider, what is he?" Madam Wade's face was extremely cold.

Keane was startled, then he looked at Linley and said, "Sister Ley, is, is my sister's fiancee. How could he be an outsider? "

"Wedding?" Madame Wade is flabbergasted.

Jenne flabbergasted.

Linley.

"Wedding?" Linley immediately looked at Keane. Keane just winked at Linley. Linley immediately understood what Keane meant.

Right at this moment, Jenne's face flushed red.

"What about that?" Keane arrogantly tilted his head. "My sister-in-law became a capable person to discuss this, right? Aunty, my father is dead, as is my older brother. I am now the main successor. ”

Mrs Wade was silent.

Everyone present looked at Madam Wade. Keane's position as the chief successor of the governor is undeniable and protected by imperial law. They wanted to see how Mrs Wade would handle it.

"Haha, Keane, what's the rush?" Madame Wade laughed. "Your father is dead, and you are his only surviving son. Naturally, you are his main successor. The governor is yours, of course. No one will take it from you. ”

Linley looked suspiciously at Madame Wade.

Linley was not alone. Everyone's heart was filled with suspicion. Madame Wade is not a person who gives up easily.

"Then thank you, aunt. Keane smiles. "When will I be governor?" Madame Wade chuckled, "Don't rush, don't rush. Right now, Keane, you're not old enough. How about this . In two years, when you reach the maturity age, you can take over the post of Governor. ”

"Two years later?" Keane staring.

Madame Wade beaming. “Keane, be a good boy. You are not old enough. You don't have enough ability to manage a city. Don'worry. Two years from now, you will definitely become the governor of the prefectural city of Cerre. ”
