Chapter 1072 - 1071: Tying Oneself in Knots
East City, Harmon Mansion.
At this time, Harmon Mansion had been besieged tightly. Inside, two Nascent Soul masters from Harmon’s mansion were slain on the spot, and Marlon Shepherd was indeed rescued from the dungeon within.
Of course, throughout the entire ordeal, Yusuf Zuck hadn’t lifted a finger since the actions of the City Lord’s Mansion were even swifter. Led by the House Steward of the City Master’s Mansion, a team of ten experts struck with the force of thunder. Before the Harmon family could react, their masters were killed and Marlon was saved.
Moreover, out of the three hundred and eighty residents within the Harmon Mansion, aside from the old, women, and children, everyone was captured and taken to the City Lord’s Mansion.
And at that moment, the House Steward of the City Master’s Mansion was conversing with Yusuf Zuck politely just outside the great doors of Harmon Mansion.
"The City Lord said that he will hold a banquet tonight at the City Lord’s Mansion, and at that time, he wishes for Martin Huppe to attend. The City Lord wants to introduce you to the distinguished figures within the city!"
"I’ll certainly be there," Yusuf Zuck replied with a cupped-fist salute.
"Then I shall take my leave. We’ll meet again in the evening." The House Steward of the City Master’s Mansion was truly a supreme figure in the city, second to only one, yet he was incredibly respectful, addressing him repeatedly as Martin Huppe.
As for the reason?
He only knew that after their City Lord had examined that ring, he had laughed heartily several times and exclaimed ’Interesting!’ three times. Then, he declared that he would host the evening’s banquet, where Martin Huppe would be the guest of honor.
