I Can Contract Beauties-Chapter 205: Grand Patriarch
The gentle smile of Elder Journey made Master Nelson feel as though the devil was smiling at him.
He knew that one wrong move, and he would be finished.
With the threat right beside him, Master Nelson dared not to move a muscle.
At the corner of his eyes, he could see that his Red-Eyed Hound was being tortured to death.
Its aggrieved cries echoed in the surroundings, even the onlookers felt that it was suffering too much, and that it did not deserve such treatment.
The two Martial Artist’s could do nothing.
Both of them had pale faces, holding their left shoulder that was now missing an arm.
Now that Edith had turned serious, she finally slashed them with the sharp sword.
Having lost one of their arms, the two of them did not dare to support the Red-Eyed Hound anymore, afraid that they would sustain more damage.
The woman summoner felt like a blade had been extended to her neck.
Although Elder Journey was inside Master Nelson’s Absolute Shield, and not hers, for him to enter Master Nelson’s shield just like that, there was no doubt he could do the same to her.
Although both of them were Master Rank Summoners, Master Nelson was still a few leagues stronger than her and the gap between the two of them was immense.
Hence, even though Elder Journey was not threatening her directly, she could still feel that her life was hanging on a thin thread, and this thin thread was held by Elder Journey himself.
The two Master Summoners could only watch as their respective Innate Beasts gets tortured by Elder Journey’s beasts.
The two of them felt pity for their beasts, but there was nothing they could do about it.
A while later, the red sparrow finally succumbed to it’s injuries and dropped dead to the ground. A smell akin to a roasted fried chicken wafted in the surroundings.
The woman summoner was teary eyed as the scent entered her nose.
Fortunately, the smell did not last any longer as her beasts transformed and disintegrated into thin air.
The Red-Eyed Hound soon followed the red sparrow’s footsteps.
Slash wounds were all over its body. Its previous fiery eyes lose their luster. It disintegrated into thin air as well.
Just like the red sparrow, it could only return to the grimoire and wait for the revival process to end.
With their two main combatants succumbing to their death, it could be said that there were now two useless Master Summoners in the Red Family’s arsenal.
The news was immediately transmitted by the brave onlookers that hid in the dark.
With two Master Summoners, Martial Artist Elders getting ’crippled’, will the other large families finally have the chance to rise in Blazing City?
Of course, not!
Although there were a lot of strong elders in the Red Family that they had managed to rope in after so many years, they were actually not the one holding the fort in the Red Family.
This was public knowledge that even the smallest of children know.
Miguel, of course, knew of such an important information as well.
After the two Innate Beasts were dealt with, Miguel’s head immediately turned towards the west.
At the same moment, his vision captured a figure flying, no, it was more like floating in mid-air, approaching their current location.
One look and he could tell that he was a human being.
Miguel had never seen this person before. And even though it felt like he did not emit any aura, Miguel could still tell that this person was quite formidable.
At least, Miguel could not see through his realm for the time being.
After three minutes, the floating figure gracefully landed in front of Damian and Domen.
Due to Miguel’s action of turning his head earlier, the onlookers also imitated his actions and were also able to see this person floating in mid-air.
When the figure got closer, Miguel noticed that the expression of that of Master Nelson, and the others, especially Cardino, began to lit up.
Although Miguel was not aware of the identity of this figure, he could tell from their reactions that he was someone important. The red hair also indicated his relationship with everyone present.
Master Nelson beside Miguel heaved a sigh of relief upon seeing the red-haired figure.
It seems that wherever he was, he had certainly captured the trust of everyone present.
The moment the figure landed, Damian and the others immediately went forward to bow in a ninety degree angle towards him.
"Greetings, Grand Patriarch Zuko!"
All of them greeted him in unison.
The previous despair they were feeling was now replaced by elation and relief.
In their mind, with Patriarch Zuko here, nothing would go wrong.
Master Nelson and the woman summoner were not able to greet him due to Elder Journey still being beside him, but they still made their best to appear subservient toward the newly arrived red-haired man. 𝕗𝗿𝕖𝐞𝐰𝗲𝕓𝐧𝕠𝕧𝗲𝐥.𝚌𝐨𝚖
Upon hearing the name of this person, Miguel finally realized who he was.
Patriarch Zuko, the grandfather of Damian, and great grandfather of Domen.
A legendary figure in Blazing City.
The one holding the fort. The only Grandmaster Summoner that was residing in Blazing City. A person who was rumored to have lived for over three hundred years. And a person believed to have a Gold Grade Grimoire in the entire Red Family.
All these were public knowledge that everyone in Blazing City knew.
Seeing the rumored Grand Patriarch Zuko in person, Miguel felt that he was indeed formidable.
At least, he could see from the old eyes of Patriarch Zuko that he was a person who have been hardened and quenched by the passing of time.
"I have seen the battle earlier. I did not expect for the Elders of the Red Family to have fallen to such a state," he shook his head and said with an impassive tone.
Although his voice was quite calm and soothing, hearing his words, Master Nelson and the woman could only lower their heads, feeling ashamed of themselves.
Grand Patriarch Zuko looked at Cardino, and then at Damian.
"Snotty brat, you have grown quite old already." He commented, making Damian scratch his face while smiling wryly.
