Chapter 329: The Aftermath
"Well, maybe he just considers me trustworthy, so he wants me to be his bridge in connecting our family to him. Besides, he still wants to keep his anonymity, as he does not want too many people to know his appearance," Aldrey said under his father’s stare. He was really nervous, but he tried his best to hide it.
As an emperor-stage cultivator, his father was highly perceptive and would detect any signs of dishonesty.
"Please move on and stop asking questions about Aldrian!" Aldrey thought to himself. But then, he remembered something and smiled at his father.
"Oh, and that mysterious swordsman said you can meet him soon after this event, Father. He mentioned that after today, news from Larson City will spread, and you can meet him if the time and place are right."
Grand Duke Flamecrest, who was watching his son intently, raised an eyebrow in wonder.
"Is that so? That is good. I am truly curious about this person. I might even learn something from him myself. Also, what was he doing in Larson City at this time? He said to us to strike this place today while he was in Larson City. Do you know anything about it?"
Aldrey shook his head.
"No, Father. He only told me that today was the best day to attack the Larson family’s territory in this place and that he would do something in Larson City to ensure they have no chance of retaliation."
Aldrey himself was actually quite curious about what his son would do in Larson City. He knew he could trust his son’s strength, given all the evidence of his achievements thus far, but as a father, he still worried for him. He did not want his son to make an enemy of an entire empire by provoking the imperial family because of the Larson family.
