Chapter 185 The Secret of the Mu Guang Pavilion
Although most of the information Romo had obtained from the soul search was messy, he had also collected a lot of useful information. Not only could he verify what the old man had said earlier was true, he also obtained more details.
Previously, it had only been a unilateral explanation. Now, what he had obtained was a recollection which was as if he had personally experienced it.
Romo had extracted some information which was most useful. One was the overview of the Mu Guang Pavilion, which included all the information on the Chiefs and the two Pavilion Masters, as well as the address of the headquarters and branches of the Mu Guang Pavilion.
The second piece of information was everything about Mu Guang Pavilion’s planned operation for Winterfrost.
The last was what shocked Romo the most. The reason why the Mu Guang Pavilion had targeted the Nicholas family clan this time, in addition to the previous feud, was because they had been commissioned to assassinate the Nicholas family.
It was obvious without a doubt that the client was from the four large family clans.
Previously, Romo had blown up their ancestral graves and killed their eight Magi of the Divine Power Realm. The four large family clans seemed to have calmed down outwardly.
Their family clan luck had been plundered, and the four large family clans faced many troubles. On the surface, they did not seem to have made any moves, but behind the scenes, they had actually commissioned the Mu Guang Pavilion to assassinate the Nicholas family.
Romo had not expected the four large family clans to be so dishonorable. Although they had been badly frightened by Romo’s beating, they should not have used such a sinister move.
The reason the four large family clans had chosen the Mu Guang Pavilion was not only because of its reputation, but also because the four large family clans knew that the Nicholas family clan had a feud with the Mu Guang Pavilion. Regardless of their request, the Mu Guang Pavilion would definitely assassinate the Nicholas family clan.
And their request was equivalent to a catalyst between the two.
Moreover, the four large family clans had not only paid the Mu Guang Pavilion, they had also told the Mu Guang Pavilion some secrets about the Nicholas family clan, including the fact that Ron had a spirit weapon magic robe.
Such a mission could be said to be killing three birds with one stone for the Mu Guang Pavilion. Not only would they be able to take revenge, they would also be able to obtain a large sum of remuneration and also a spirit weapon magic robe. As expected by the four large family clans, after the other party had received this large business deal, the Mu Guang Pavilion immediately took action on the Nicholas family clan.
The Mu Guang Pavilion had learned that the Nicholas family clan was not simple. From the intelligence they received, their family clan had a Guardian Spirit Beast at the peak of level-6. At the same time, they also had a descendant at the peak of the Divine Power Realm with a high-grade magical weapon. They were all not ordinary people.
As a precaution, the Mu Guang Pavilion first sent three Chiefs to check out the situation. Unexpectedly, one of the Chiefs did not listen to the order and was too anxious to assassinate Ron without permission. As a result, he lost his life.
With this lesson from the Chief, the other two Chiefs, who had rushed over, were very careful in their actions. They observed carefully every day. When they finally discovered that Norton, Charles, and the others were going to search for their clansmen, they knew that the opportunity had come, so they started to act.
After confirming that Norton’s actions were not suspicious, they had gotten ready to assassinate them. The other Chief, who was at level-8 of the Divine Power Realm, stayed in Winterfrost to continue to watch the Nicholas family.
However, when this Chief, who was level-8 of the Divine Power Realm, discovered that the Five-Color Peacock had left, he thought that the Nicholas family clan no longer posed a threat, and actually entered the ancestral hall of the family clan without permission, intending to check out the secrets of the Nicholas family clan first, and carry out his assassination mission if he had the opportunity.
The old man did not hesitate at all when making this decision. Firstly, he had definitely not expected the Nicholas family to have a Mage of the Longevity Realm. Secondly, the old man had relied on the fact that he knew how to use the Blood Shadow Escape Technique and thought that he would be able to escape if he were to encounter any mishaps.
What he did not know was that the other two Chiefs had long been annihilated.
From the old man’s words, Romo had obtained information that the Mu Guang Pavilion had sent three Chiefs to Winterfrost. The old man was not sure if there were more behind.
However, whether there were more of them or not, Romo was not afraid. Even if the Pavilion Masters were to come, Romo would take them on till the end.
This information was enough. Romo was ready to take the initiative to attack. Those who came for revenge would always come one after another. This would really disturb Romo’s rest. It was better to wipe them out at one go this time.
In just a few minutes, Romo had a plan to make a trip.
“What’s going on?” Romo suddenly looked ahead. Although the old man had already woken up, his entire body was trembling like a candle in the wind, about to extinguish at any moment.
The expressions on his face kept changing. Sometimes he was horrified, sometimes he was curious, sometimes he was excited, sometimes he was deranged. From time to time, he would say a few words as if he had gone mad.
Romo also knew that this was the side effect of forcefully searching his soul. Currently, the old man’s memory was completely messed up and he was delirious. As for whether he could wake up, Romo could not guarantee. It was something impossible to predict.
His broken soul might dissipate before the old man could wake up.
Although Romo had the ability to help him wake up, Romo did not plan to save him because he deserved it. Moreover, he had no value now.
If his willpower was strong enough, Romo could consider using him to assassinate the four large family clans and the others. This would be his last value.
However, now that things had turned out like this, Romo decided to leave it to its own fate. After all, he had already known of his existence, and it would be risky to let him go out again.
Romo waved his hand and wrapped the old man’s soul with energy, fusing it into the core. In an instant, the old man’s soul floated above the core as if it would explode at any moment.
Then, Romo placed the core behind the tablet and hid it temporarily.
The ancestral hall of the Nicholas family clan regained its usual calm, as if nothing had happened.
However, Romo had one more thing he had not done. He had not dealt with the others who had been lying in ambush in the Nicholas family palace. A hint of icy killing intent appeared in Romo’s eyes.
“How long has it been? Why hasn’t the Chief given the order? I’m about to fall asleep.” The assassin lurking in the tree watched Lily and the other two children play together, waiting for the Chief to give the order. He was almost going to fall asleep.
Suddenly, he heard a snapping sound. Before he could react, his entire body had turned into a ball of blood mist.
Romo had snapped his fingers in the ancestral hall of the Nicholas family.
