The day passed quickly.
At noon the next day, under the gaze of countless pairs of eyes inside and outside the Holy Light City, the shadow of a flying ferry appeared on the horizon, and it became clearer and clearer.
“Look, look! There’s a city ahead!”
“Wow! It’s huge! The city wall is so tall!”
“Is that the Holy Light City? Are we going to live here from now on?”
In the cabin, Lily and the other children were leaning against the window, staring at the approaching city and discussing it excitedly.
Next to the children, the adults who knew the situation did not seem to be relaxed. They could not hide the nervousness and worry on their faces.
On the deck outside the cabin, Norton, Ron, and the other Great Archmagi were standing at the bow of the ship, staring at the Holy Light City in front of them with solemn expressions.
There was nothing to hide. Their souls swept out one after another. Soon, they discovered many powerful auras in the Holy Light City. The other parties were either boldly or carefully probing them.
However, the flying ferry was covered by a formation, so they could not detect what was going on inside the ferry.
Soon, the flying ferry arrived in front of the Holy Light City. Then, it did not stop but flew directly into the sky above the Holy Light City!
In an instant, dozens of unfriendly souls had enveloped the flying ferry. Most of them were just expressing their dissatisfaction with this rude behavior, but some of them were emitting undisguised hostility and even killing intent!!
Several powerful auras flew up from the city and flew rapidly toward the flying ferry.
The other party was not from the four large family clans of the Holy Light City, but from the City Lord Residence!
The Nicholas family’s flying ferry had come from the east, and in the Holy Light City, in the east was one of the four large family clans, which was the Treis family!!
Moreover, the current Treis family palace had been the former Nicholas family palace!!
The Treis family clan had once joined forces with the other three large family clans to force the Nicholas family clan out of the Holy Light City. In the end, not only did they usurp the position as one of the four large family clans, they occupied the Nicholas family palace and also snatched most of the businesses of the Nicholas family clan!
Therefore, after the Sacred Mist Ferry flew directly into the sky above the Holy Light City, it first came to the sky above the Treis family clan.
Although they understood that this was just a “coincidence”, everyone in the Treis family could not help but feel their hearts tighten. Many of them could hardly hide the fear and panic in their hearts.
This was because everyone knew that if they had to arrange in order the revenge of the Nicholas family clan, the Treis family clan would definitely be the first!!
In particular, the huge and domineering appearance of the flying ferry gave off a huge sense of oppression, like a huge mountain lying across the top of one’s head. One could not help but worry that if it were to smash down directly, one might be directly crushed to death.
Zana and the other Great Archmagi of the Treis family clan had already arrived in the sky above the Nicholas family.
All of them had grave expressions. The magical power in their bodies was already surging, ready to attack at any moment.
However, when they sensed the few auras which had flown out first from the City Lord Residence, everyone from the Treis family, including many others in the city, heaved a sigh of relief.
With the City Lord appearing first, the situation should not be too bad. No matter how domineering or impulsive the Nicholas family was, they would not dare to openly go against the nobles.
In the sky, the Nicholas family’s flying ferry stopped. The Five-Color Peacock let out a roar and circled in the air before stopping above the flying ferry.
Not to mention anything else, just the aura of the Guardian Spirit Beast alone had made many people in the city shudder in fear. Just now, the circling and the roar had swept up a powerful wind and lightning power in the air, making people feel that the Nicholas family clan was showing off its prowess.
Then, the few figures who had flown out of the City Lord Residence came to the front of the flying ferry. They were three old men.
The person in the lead was dressed in a purple-black robe. His hair was gray, and his face was angular. He was the City Lord of the Holy Light City, Diaze.
Diaze was a noble and the younger brother of the current emperor. He was not only the City Lord of the Holy Light City, but also the administrator of the entire Ferrero.
However, Ferrero was not a fiefdom. Although there were many nobles in the Byron Kingdom, they only had the titles of nobility but were not given any land. The purpose was naturally to prevent the nobles from having ulterior motives.
Diaze was a level-7 Great Archmage. He was not of the highest level in the Holy Light City, but as the City Lord of the Holy Light City, what was important was not his level, but his identity.
In terms of levels, the two princes behind him were level-8 Great Archmagi.
Another guest elder was enough—a level-9 Great Archmage!
It was not that there was no one of higher levels among the nobles, but that the elders of higher levels had already stopped caring about the world and focused on cultivation.
Legend had it that a large number of predecessors of the nobles had gathered in the forbidden land of the Byron Kingdom. There were even countless top Great Archmagi.
Upon seeing the City Lord’s arrival, Norton, who was on the flying ferry, took the initiative to bow politely. “Norton greets Diaze on behalf of the Nicholas family.”
Diaze frowned at Norton and the others and asked, “What is the meaning of this, Nicholas family clan?” Although he was looking at the people on the flying ferry, his soul was paying more attention to the Five-Color Peacock above the flying ferry. Although there was no obvious hostility, he had a feeling that the Guardian Spirit Beast would attack him at any moment.
Norton said in a neither servile nor overbearing manner, “The Nicholas family clan has no intention of offending the City Lord. We have come today to seek justice for the Nicholas family clan. Please help us bear witness.”
Diaze raised his eyebrows and said in a low voice, “Oh? What justice does your Nicholas family want? From whom?”
Norton’s gaze swept across the entire city and finally landed below. He said coldly, “From the four large family clans and everyone who has persecuted the Nicholas family clan before!”
His voice was not loud, but it spread throughout the city. Many people could not help but feel their hearts tighten. At the same time, they were inexplicably shocked. The Nicholas family was really going to challenge all its enemies at the same time?!
Diaze’s gaze flickered slightly, but his expression remained calm. “Logically speaking, we won’t interfere with the fights between family clans as long as they do not implicate the innocent or go overboard. I also find it a pity that the Nicholas family clan had once lost in the contest. I can understand that all of you want to regain your former glory now, but there’s no need to use such an extreme method. I’m also very troubled by all of you.”
“If we continue to swallow our anger, my Nicholas family clan will probably never have peace!” Norton’s tone was slightly cold. He waved his right hand and threw out an item. He continued, “Please take a look at this first!”
Diaze’s expression froze. He could tell at a glance that the other party had thrown out a video recording magical equipment!
The magical equipment flew into the air and emitted a ball of light like a small moon. Then, an image gradually appeared in the light, and a voice sounded.
