Instantly, countless people reacted upon hearing the news. Those who were far away immediately contacted various parties and paid close attention to the development of the situation. Those who were close immediately set off for the Holy Light City, wanting to see this commotion with their own eyes.
In the Holy Light City, when the news spread, the entire city was shocked.
In the Treis family palace.
In a quiet room, Zana was cultivating. A while ago, the family clan had been having frequent problems, causing him to be badly burned out. Recently, things had finally gotten a little better, and he finally had the time to cultivate properly.
However, it was difficult for him to calm down completely and go into seclusion for more than ten days. Thus, it was almost useless.
At this moment, Zana, who was cultivating, suddenly frowned. He opened his eyes and looked outside. Then, he waved his right hand and opened the formation outside the entrance.
Soon, hurried footsteps could be heard. Then, the door to the quiet room was pushed open, and a man of about 50 years old walked in with a panicked expression.
The person’s name was Rackel, and he was Zana’s grandson.
Zana frowned and said, “Why are you so flustered?”
“Grandpa, bad news!” Rackel said with an ugly expression. “The Nicholas family has returned!!”
Zana’s gaze froze slightly. He stared at Rackel and said, “What did you say?!”
Rackel shuddered from the stare and actually calmed down a lot. He replied, “I have just received news that the Nicholas family clan somehow has a large flying ferry at some point in time. Everyone is flying here in the flying ferry toward the Holy Light City! They are expected to arrive tomorrow!”
Zana could not help but look surprised. “Is the news reliable?”
Rackel said, “It came directly from Winterfrost. It has been confirmed by the nobles!!”
Zana’s expression instantly darkened. He could not help but mutter to himself in surprise, “How could the Nicholas family clan have a large flying ferry? What gives them the confidence to return now?! Could there really be a hidden force we don’t know about?!”
It was not that they had not thought of this possibility previously, but they later rejected it because the secretive behavior of the Nicholas family clan seemed to be a deliberate attempt to make-believe and pretend. If they were really powerful, there was no need to hide it.
Could it be that in such a short period of time, the Nicholas family clan has become so powerful that they are able to kill their way back to the Holy Light City?
Or are they actually overconfident?!
Countless thoughts flashed through Zana’s mind. He could not figure out why the Nicholas family dared to charge back here now, but he could not suppress the uneasiness in his heart!!
He suddenly stood up and walked out quickly. At the same time, he instructed, “Summon all the clansmen that were outside immediately! Also, do your best to find out the exact information about the Nicholas family clan.” At the same time, the other family clans have also received news about the Nicholas family clan.
Moreover, these three family clans had also issued similar instructions like Zana.
Instantly, the people from the four large family clans rushed back to their residences. In the eyes of others, the reactions of the four family clans were somewhat panicked.
The onlookers became even more interested in watching the show. In a certain Ferrero city, in a specialty restaurant famous in Ferrero, a young man with an extraordinary aura was sitting in a private room eating a sumptuous meal with a slightly feminine old man.
These two people were the traveling Prince VII, Quinn, and his trusted aide, Chief Steward Hansen.
Chief Steward Hansen had been holding his wine cup and sipping slowly when his eyebrows were suddenly raised. He seemed to have discovered something, and a hint of surprise appeared in his eyes.
Quinn was sharp enough to notice this situation. He asked, “Chief Steward, what’s wrong?”
Chief Steward Hansen’s eyes flickered slightly, and he said, “Some people are discussing; they have just received news that the Nicholas family clan of Winterfrost has taken a flying ferry to the Holy Light City.”
Hearing this, Quinn could not help being stunned. Then, he said in surprise, “Are you sure?!”
Chief Steward Hansen said, “The people talking over there said that the news is true.”
Quinn frowned slightly. “How can this be? Where did the Nicholas family get their confidence from? With just a level-6 Guardian Spirit Beast and Ron?”
Chief Steward Hansen said meaningfully, “The Nicholas family clan is probably more confident than this. Your Highness, have you forgotten that none of the people they had gone out of the city to kill previously had returned?”
A light flickered in Quinn’s eyes. “Does this mean I might have made the right bet?”
He stood up and said, “Let’s go and take a look!”
In a restaurant in a certain city, an old man frowned as he listened to the discussions of some people beside him.
He was one from the group Romo had met in the Calamity Mountain Range previously, Harris.
“Why is the Nicholas family clan here?”
Harris was surprised when he heard from the person beside him that the Nicholas family had killed their way back to the Holy Light City.
He frowned and pondered for a moment, then stood up and left.
In the sky, a divine dragon was flying.
On the back of the Divine Dragon Beast sat a sage-like old man. He was Xi Bolai, the Mage from the Sky Fortune Academy who had been a guest in the Nicholas family.
At this moment, Xi Bolai was holding a Communication Gem and frowning slightly.
“Why is the Nicholas family clan doing this?” Xi Bolai muttered to himself. He activated the magical power in his body and kept touching his fingertips with his thumb to calculate.
A moment later, a helpless expression appeared on his face. He sighed and gave up on calculating.
Unable to figure it out, there was a hint of worry in his eyes. He muttered to himself, “The future of the Nicholas family clan is unpredictable, but at least there would not be a calamity of extermination. Perhaps, they have something to rely on.”
Unfortunately, I really can’t leave. I hope the Nicholas family clan is lucky and can be safe.”
Xi Bolai sighed, retracted his communication energy, and continued on his way.
At this moment, he was above a limitless sea, and in front of him, he could faintly see a huge island that was like a paradise on earth.
The news of the Nicholas family killing their way back to the Holy Light City had caused quite a stir in Ferrero City and even the magical world of the Great Xia Kingdom.
All eyes were focused on the Holy Light City, waiting for the Nicholas family to arrive.
The journey on Nicholas family’s flying ferry was smooth without any obstacles.
Although what was going on in the flying ferry could not be known, the Guardian Spirit Beast flying with the ferry was afterall at the peak of level-6. Even those who were hostile to the Nicholas family or wanted to probe the strength of the Nicholas family dared not attack.
Although they had not sent any message, the attitude of the Nicholas family clearly indicated that they were going to the Holy Light City to settle scores.
They would definitely have to face the four large family clans of the Holy Light City altogether. The others were not anxious anymore. They were all waiting to watch a fierce fight.
If the Nicholas family were defeated, wouldn’t it be better to beat them when they were down?
Many of them were calculating in their hearts. It had been a mistake not to eliminate the Nicholas family 50 years ago. They would definitely not make the same mistake again.
