Wharton was stunned by this sudden news.
Wharton really wanted to be able to openly marry Nina in the imperial capital, rather than elope with her.
"Caylan, is your information correct?" Linley looked at Caylan, asking urgently.
Caylan nodded solemnly. "Mr Linley, although His Imperial Majesty has not publicly announced it, this information comes from my father's conversation with His Imperial Majesty. Master Linley, I believe you can judge for yourself the authenticity of this news. ”
Linley nodded slightly.
There was no need for the Premier Left Empire to lie to its own son. And, considering Linley's spiritual energy as an Arch Magus of the ninth rank, if Caylan was lying, Linley should be able to sense something.
"Whatever happens, we, brethren, would like to thank you for your help, Caylan. "Say Linley thank you.
Only now did Wharton's mind become clear again. He also said gratefully to Caylan, “Caylan, thank you for letting us know. ”
“No need to thank me. I just hope that in the future, Nina will have a happy life. All right, I gotta go. "Caylan bowed slightly towards Linley and Wharton, then left.
Wharton watched Caylan leave, then suddenly turned towards Linley. "Brother boy . What are we supposed to do? ”Wharton's mind is in chaos.
"What should we do?" Linley spoke with absolute confidence. “For the time being, we immediately started moving the household from the imperial capital. ”
Linley stared coldly at the imperial palace. “We're out of options. I will immediately instruct the person to talk to Yale and have him come. Right now, we must use the Dawson Conglomerate's secret channel to bring Rebecca, Leena, Jenne, and Uncle Hillman's family members out of the imperial capital. And, ideally the Emperor should not have found that they had left. ”
In fact, it wouldn't be a big deal even if the Emperor did know about it.
Even if Emperor Johann was suspicious of Linley, then what? Did he dare to offend Linley? After all, he himself was not a God of War. And even if he dared to offend Linley ... who under his command was actually capable of dealing with Linley?
… .
That day, Linley invited Yale. After discussing the matter for some time with Yale, Yale immediately slapped his chest and promised, "Third brother, don't worry about it. Just a few people. There's definitely not going to be any problems. ”
Yale laughed. "Actually, Third Brother. Even if the Emperor knew, he would pretend not to know. ”
Linley smiled as well.
He had reached Saint level. Although the Emperor's status was very high, Linley had no fear towards the man. In fact, the only person Linley feared was the man living in War God Mountain.
“Stay, try not to be found. "Linley instructed.
…… .
Although, Jenne, Rebecca, and Leena were reluctant to leave, they knew that they would meet up again with Linley's group later on, instead, and thus they followed the direction of the Dawson Conglomerate and quietly left the imperial capital.
Actually, Linley and Wharton had not given up all hope.
They hoped that on March 15, Emperor Johann would choose Wharton at the Martial Palace. Although the chances are very low.
After all, Nina eloping with Wharton meant separating from her family. As for Wharton, he, Housekeeper Hiri, and Hillman all became very comfortable and used to live in the imperial capital. Unless it was absolutely necessary, they did not want to take the final step.
…
Every day passes, and March 15th draws near. The streets, hotels, and restaurants in the imperial capital were once again filled with discussions about Wharton, Blumer, and their elder brother.
Everyone was trying to guess who would marry the Seventh Imperial Princess.
Hope for March 15th has finally arrived. That morning, a rare blizzard actually descended on the imperial capital early in the morning. Even though the sun appeared at seven or eight, it was still difficult to see anything farther than ten meters away.
“Wah "Stand outside his house, Wharton let out a long sigh.
These past few days, he had experienced a lot of mental stress.
"Enough . We'll know the answer today. Relaxed. "Linley laughed, clapping Wharton on the shoulder. Wharton turned to look at his brother. Looking at Linley, Wharton felt as if Linley was his strongest source of support. With Linley there, Wharton felt a sense of confidence.
"really. "Wharton nodded strongly.
Linley and Wharton immediately boarded their carriage, heading towards the direction of the imperial palace. Due to the blizzard, the carriage was traveling very slowly. Moreover, there were many carriages that headed to the imperial palace today.
The imperial palace gate.
One train after another stopped at the gate, and various nobles came out of their carriages and conversed with each other.
"Lord Olivier has arrived. ”Seeing Olivier and Blumer walking out of the carriage together, many nobles and ministers outside the gate greeted them warmly.
Seeing the nobles and ministers walking towards him as soon as he left the carriage, Olivier could only frown.
"Second brother, let's go inside. ”Olivier did not glance at the nobles as he exuded a surge of strength from his body, directly getting rid of the nobles and senior ministers who were coming, but did not injure them in the slightest.
The nobles and ministers all exchanged glances. They're shocked.
"Your Majesty, we have arrived. "A driver's voice rang out, and then Wharton and Linley got out of the train. This time, the nobles and ministers very wisely did not try to get close. They only spoke words of welcome at a safe distance.
Linley and Wharton did not pay too much attention to the nobility either, heading straight for the palace.
"Linley's. "Olivier came to a halt, turned his head and offered Linley a welcome.
"Olivier's. "Linley still felt a sense of respect towards a strong rival like Olivier. No one could reach such a level of strength without focusing for years on training themselves with great difficulty.
Linley, Wharton, Olivier, and Blumer walked forward in rows, heading towards the Martial Palace together.
"Linley, that day, in the Colosseum .. To be honest, I really wanted to continue fighting with you. "A friendly smile appeared on Olivier's face.
"Oh? Then why did you just give up? I'm refusing to believe that you're afraid of Haydson. "Said Linley while laughing calmly.
Olivier and Linley both felt their respective strengths. Although on that day, they had been sidelined by Haydson, aside from Haydson's strength, one of the main reasons they were forced to be sidelined was because they had yet to let their attacks explode at full force.
“I don't want to let Haydson know the secret of my obsidian sword technique. If I fight with you, won't I expose myself to him? ”There was a smile on Olivier's face. “I really want to see if 'Saint Monolithic Sword' Haydson, who is famous for his defensive abilities, can withstand my attacks. ”
Linley nodded.
"In the duel between me and the Monolithic Sword Saint roughly a month from now, who do you think will win?" Suddenly Olivier asked.
Linley paused for a moment.
That day, Linley had seen layers of black energy flowing on that obsidian sword. It gave a very strange sensation. Linley was very confident in his own adamantine heavy sword, but he was not always confident in his ability to withstand his opponent's blows. ”
"It's possible that you or the Monolithic Sword Saint won. But I think the Monolithic Sword Saint, Haydson, has a higher chance of winning. After all, over the years, no Saint-level expert had been able to defeat him. For him to be able to achieve such a feat meant that he definitely had the strength to rely on. "Said Linley impartially.
Olivier nodded. "really. I admit, six years ago, when I had a duel with Haydson, he only revealed part of his true strength. Haydson .. His strength is extraordinary in. But I was filled with confidence towards my obsidian sword as well. No matter how strong his defense was, he should not be able to hold it in. ”
Linley laughed.
How could this Olivier be so similar to him? He himself had the same confidence in his adamantine heavy sword.
“What kind of attack does your obsidian sword have? Why are you so confident in it? "Ask Linley to know.
Olivier laughs. "My obsidian sword?" Olivier looked at Linley. Pausing for a moment, he said, "I can tell you this. You should know by now that my obsidian sword technique is based on my insights into the Elemental Laws of Darkness. ”
Linley nodded.
“So, in addition to the amazing penetration strength and attack power, my obsidian sword also has a spiritual attack. “Olivier directly said with confidence.
"Spiritual attack?" Linley.
Darkness style magic does include spirit-based curses. The Elemental Laws of Darkness encompassed all sorts of soul-related traits. But for Olivier to be able to develop a spiritual attack with his obsidian sword based on his understanding of these laws was simply amazing.
“Maybe the ordinary physical attack of the obsidian sword is very easy to defend, but the attack on spirits. I want to see how Haydson can block it! "
As Olivier spoke, an expression of excitement appeared on Blumer's face as well.
Linley had to admit …
That obsidian sword was indeed extremely terrifying.
"How frightening. To directly attack the spirit .. "Linley was amazed at the power of this technique as well.
“The stronger one's spirit, the more likely they will be able to block this attack. But the warriors generally did not have very strong spiritual energy. Even Saint-level warriors usually did not possess as much spiritual energy as Arch Magus of the ninth rank. “Olivier is very confident.
Warriors had far less spiritual energy than magi of the same rank.
This technique was aimed at precisely at the weak points of the fighters.
"Linley's. What about the attacks for your technique? "Olivier asked as well.
Blumer also looked at Linley. Right now, a hint of arrogance was in Blumer's eyes. He was confident that Linley would not be able to match his elder brother.
Linley did not try to hide anything. Said directly. “My technique with adamantine heavy sword also makes the exterior defense useless. It directly attacks the internal organs in the opponent's body. ”
"Make defense useless?" Olivier's face changed.
In general, experts were slowly building up their spiritual energy. On the road to gaining insight into the Laws, the growth rate of their spiritual energy would increase rapidly. For example, Haydson's spiritual energy should be able to match the Arch Magus of the ninth rank.
But the internal organs are different.
Although it is easy to train one's muscles, it is very difficult to train the heart or intestines. They could only absorb a little elemental essence, which would slightly strengthen the heart and organs.
If one's organs were to be destroyed, one would definitely die.
"Making the defense exterior useless and attacking directly on the inside of the body .." Olivier felt admiration in his heart towards Linley as well. This kind of attack was too strange, yet Linley managed to develop it.
Linley also felt admiration for Olivier. The obsidian sword is capable of attacking one's spirit!
…… .
The nobles and ministers behind them, upon seeing Linley and Olivier chatting in seemingly friendly terms, could not help but feel shocked.
Soon, Linley and the others arrived outside the Martial Palace.
Linley and Olivier glanced at each other, then led their younger brothers to the Martial Palace together. In fact, even though they had described their ultimate attack to each other, the attack would still be extremely difficult to counter.
Both spirit and internal organs are clearly vital points. This was why these two geniuses were so confident, and why they were not afraid to tell their secrets to their rivals.
So what if I tell you? Let's see if you can do anything!
…………
Quite a number of people gathered in the Martial Palace. After Linley and Wharton entered the palace, a palace attendant immediately walked over. "Lord Linley, Your Majesty has arranged a chair for you. Please sit there. ”
Ordinary ministers had to remain standing, but Linley did not.
Linley calmly sat down, while Olivier was also led to the chair by the palace attendant. The eyes of the various nobles and ministers in the palace were all focused on Linley and Olivier with a hint of respect and fear.
"Linley, who do you think will choose the Imperial Majesty?" Olivier chatted casually with Linley, as if those watching the nobles and ministers were not present at all.
"My brother Wharton, of course. "Said Linley directly.
Olivier glanced at Linley. “I think I disagree. Oh, His Majesty the Emperor has arrived. "Linley and Olivier both looked towards the palace gate. At that moment, a number of palace servants, the Empress, the Imperial Empress, and seven princesses entered the palace with His Majesty's Emperor, Emperor Johann.
