Chapter 167 Powerful Reinforcements Left
On the fifth day after Ron had reached the Divine Power Realm, Xi Bolai found Norton and told him that he wanted to depart from the Nicholas family.
After hearing that Xi Bolai was leaving, Norton did not know whether to be happy or sad. After all, Xi Bolai had helped his family a lot during this period of time. However, if he were to continue to stay here, Anthony would still not become his disciple. Therefore, leaving was a good thing “Thank you for your help to the Nicholas family these days, Senior,” Norton said politely. “Actually, I did not help much. Instead, I have caused you a lot of trouble. I had planned to stay for a while longer, but I suddenly received the summon from the Sky Fortune Academy last night to return. Therefore, I had no choice but to return,” Xi Bolai said.
“Senior, take care. If you have the time, you’re welcome to visit the Nicholas family again.” “Yes, I was right before. I had thought that Xi Bolai had taken the initiative to leave. I didn’t expect him to be summoned back. It looks like he has not completely given up on taking Anthony as his disciple.”
Sure enough, before Xi Bolai left, he said to Norton, “Can Anthony really not come with me? He will definitely study very well in the Sky Fortune Academy. I promise I won’t mistreat him.”
Norton shook his head awkwardly. He did not know what to say.
Seeing Norton’s reaction, Xi Bolai was not an ungrateful person. He sighed and said, “Forget it then, it looks like my fate with him is not that deep.”
It was unexpected that Xi Bolai still could not take Anthony in as his disciple after having stayed in the Nicholas family for so long. This made Xi Bolai very disappointed. He regretted missing this fate, but there was nothing he could do.
He had wanted to stay in the family and find out more of their secrets. He wanted to grind the people in the Nicholas family and see if they could let Anthony be his disciple.
However, he had not expected the Sky Fortune Academy to suddenly issue an urgent order. This meant that something big must have happened to the Sky Fortune Academy, and Xi Bolai had no choice but to leave.
In the end, Xi Bolai got Norton to lead him around the Nicholas family palace. The first place he came to was the back garden. Lily and the few children were having a great time here. Anthony was quietly held in Donna’s arms.
At the side, the Divine Dragon Beast was also strolling leisurely. Seeing Norton and Xi Bolai walk over, Donna quickly bowed. Xi Bolai smiled and walked to Anthony’s side. He saw Anthony blinking his large eyes, and felt very regretful and reluctant. However, he could not force such things.
Xi Bolai stretched out his right hand and touched Anthony’s head. He did not expect Anthony to reach out and grab Xi Bolai’s hand. At this moment, the energy of the Sky Fortune Academy was instantly injected into Anthony’s body. If he could not take him in as a disciple, this would be considered a gift from Xi Bolai to the fated one.
Although Xi Bolai and Anthony could not become master and disciple, becoming fated ones, he still hoped that Anthony could succeed in the future and realize his dream.
Although Xi Bolai’s action was very secretive and Norton had not discovered it, it could not escape Romo’s eyes at all.
However, there was no need for Romo to react. After all, Xi Bolai’s action did not have any ill intentions. Instead, it was beneficial to Anthony.
Then, under the gaze of the Nicholas family, Xi Bolai left the Nicholas family. This step was seen by the citizens of Winterfrost, causing another round of discussion.
The next day after Xi Bolai had left, Harris and the others had also recovered from their injuries. Seeing that Xi Bolai had already left, the five of them also suggested leaving. Moreover, from the situation in the past few days, the four large family clans would not do anything overboard.
“If the Nicholas family is in trouble in the future, please contact us right away. We will definitely do our best to help you,” Harris said before he left.
Sure enough, the departure of Harris and the others from the Nicholas family clan had also attracted a wave of discussion from the citizens. The most common view was that as all the powerful reinforcements of the Nicholas family had already left, the four large family clans should be making their move soon, and the Nicholas family was in grave danger.
However, to everyone’s surprise, the four large family clans remained abnormally calm. They did not look like they wanted revenge at all.
Perhaps it was really because of the previous incident that the four large family clans no longer had the energy to take revenge on the Nicholas family clan.
After all, during this period of time, bad news from the four large family clans kept spreading, such as, the family clan’s businesses were declining gradually and at the verge of becoming bankrupt, some clansmen had suffered accidents, and some had even gone berserk while cultivating magical power.
This phenomenon also confirmed the saying that one would be unlucky once one’s luck had been damaged.
There were also rumors outside that the mysterious assassin would still target the four large family clans, so they were too busy hiding and had no time to take revenge on the Nicholas family. With the departure of Xi Bolai and the others, the Nicholas family did not feel much. It was just a matter of a change in the number of people in their family.
However, overall, they still felt a little more at ease. After all, with so many guests of the Divine Power Realm, if they were to slight them, they were worried that they would be unhappy. Also, they dared not casually talk about the Old Ancestor. After all, they were worried that these secrets would be exposed.
However, Lily was very sad about Xi Bolai’s departure. Actually, she was unhappy because Xi Bolai’s Divine Dragon Beast had left.
During this period of time, Lily had been having a lot of fun with Xi Bolai’s Divine Dragon Beast. She was not used to the sudden departure. Every day, when she was free, she could only lie on the rockery alone.
During this period of time, Norton had given a strict order to everyone. No one was to leave the house casually. On the one hand, he wanted his clansmen to cultivate well, and on the other hand, he was worried that the four large family clans would take revenge on those clansmen who had left the Nicholas palace.
Lily had been in Winterfrost for a while, but she rarely went out. Children of her age were at the stage of being naughty. How could she hold back?
Moreover, Lily felt that she was much stronger than before. She wanted to find someone else to compete with, especially the few boys who had bullied her previously. Suddenly, Lily heard giggling. She quickly looked over and saw Anthony being carried by a maid. He was very happy looking at the peach blossoms and was already laughing. Thus, Anthony looked at the flowers, and Lily looked at him. “Anthony is really funny,” Lily muttered unconsciously.
Suddenly, Lily realized that the sky was a little dark. She looked up and found that the Five-Color Peacock was actually flying down from the sky.
