The Wolf’s Bride

Chapter 1476

After leaving the palace, the envoys returned home.

At the Swallows’ residence, there was a secret chamber with a different person inside.

Since the Swallows’ forebearer, Duncan Swallow, was killed by Luna, Norvin had been in seclusion here.

When the First Elder heard the news from the envoy, he immediately brought the Swallows over.

“Family head, the envoys have all returned. However, the situation seems more complicated than expected,” the First Elder reported respectfully.

“Hmph...”

Upon hearing this, a heavy snort came from inside. It was the head of the family, Norvin Swallow.

Crack!

Clack, clack...

The stone door opened, and a powerful inner energy spread out.

The nearby elders and descendants of the Swallows were all shocked and then ecstatic. This was the aura of a Martial Saint!

Norvin had broken through to the Martial Saint realm!

During this time, Norvin had been refining Duncan’s inner energy.

Duncan was already at the late stage of the Martial God realm and close to the Martial Saint realm. Coupled with the secret techniques the Insect Ruler taught to Norvin, it was like a wave that

propelled him forward!

“Congratulations!”

“Sir, congratulations on breaking through to the Martial Saint realm!”

“This is great! The family head broke through to the Martial Saint realm. There’s hope for the Swallows!”

...

All the Swallows came forward to congratulate Norvin.

“It’s just the Martial Saint realm...” Norvin waved his hand dismissively and looked at the First Elder. “How’s the situation in Florence now?”

The First Elder replied respectfully, “Registus is unwilling to confront Andrius. He said that since Andrius holds the military power, he can only let Andrius do as he pleases. He wants us to handle the matter ourselves.”

Norvin’s eyes narrowed slightly at the words, a hint of coldness flickering in them. “Registus and Andrius are both Old Hagstorm’s disciples. They’re in the same boat. It’s clear that he wants to oppose the ancient martial families, but he just doesn’t want to do it too openly.”

The other Swallows nodded in agreement.

“What about the other families?” Norvin paused for a moment and asked, “What did the Sheppard, Fuller, and Ander families say?”

“They haven’t responded yet.”

Norvin fell silent. He knew very well that with Andrius’ wings fully spread, the three other families would not dare to openly oppose Andrius and the emperor. They would only dare to make a move if they united.

When Norvin did not speak, the First Elder asked, “What should we do?” Têxt © NôvelDrama.Org.

“In this case...” Norvin looked at one of the elders. “Take some people to Murrfield and ask the Insect Ruler to deal with Andrius. When the Insect Ruler’s army arrives, the ancient martial families will also make a move and work together to completely eradicate Andrius!”

Norvin’s eyes flashed with a cold glint.

In his opinion, even if the ancient martial families united, they might not be a match for Andrius.

Furthermore, they lacked a backbone. The Insect Ruler was the best candidate for that backbone. He could gather all the ancient martial families together!

“Yes, I’ll take care of it right away!” The Second Elder immediately prepared to set out.

“Remember to be careful! Don’t let Andrius or the emperor catch wind of it,” Norvin reminded him before he left.

“Yes!” the Second Elder responded and selected skilled individuals to depart.

Nephrite Mountain was the only way out of Kiyoto, heading south.

“Noir, will the people from the ancient martial families really pass through here?”

A group of people lay in ambush among the trees and bushes on the mountain.

The person who had spoken was a newly promoted Martial King expert under the Wolf King. He was out on a mission with Noir for the first time, so he was rather excited.

“Don’t worry.” Noir said confidently, “If our estimation is correct, they won’t choose to fly to Murrfield. In that case, they have to pass through here.”

“Oh... But what if our estimation is wrong?”

Noir glared at him in exasperation. “What are you talking about?”

At that moment, someone whispered, “They’re here!”

Everyone immediately looked down.

Sure enough, a group of people were swiftly approaching the intersection.
