Chapter 218 War! (1)
In the main hall of the Roxanne family, Holden sat on the seat of honor with an extremely gloomy face. He looked at Marlon very unkindly and said, "Marlon, I heard that you want to cut ties with us. Do you want to support the Military Headquarters of the Dragon Kingdom? Have you... thought about it clearly?"
Marlon's eyes were dignified and his face was pale. He knew he couldn't hide the news that the Roxanne family chose to stand out, and the Spiritual Cave would come to him sooner or later. However, he did not expect this day to come so quickly. Moreover, the one who came here was Holden, the future successor of the Spiritual Cave. Holden was the chief disciple and the best talent in the Spiritual Cave!
Holden was so bold. He actually came to Gotham City alone and didn't bring any elders with him. In this way, the four elders in Gotham City wouldn't feel his aura and wouldn't pay much attention to this place.
Holden sneered when he saw that Marlon didn't speak. He leaned forward, continued to squint at Marlon, and said, "Marlon, I... am asking you. Or am I not qualified to let you talk to me now?"
Marlon sighed deeply in his heart, bowed deeply to Holden, and said, "Young Master, I'm sorry. My family has no choice. We are in Gotham City, so we can't resist the Military Headquarters. What's more... I asked you for help that day..."
Holden narrowed his eyes and said slowly, "Well, I know that. Elder Samuel told me about it once. However, at that time, Shelton and Judy blocked the gate of the Spiritual Cave and fought with us."
Holden paused and said again, "Ha-ha... Marlon, do you think we couldn't stop Shelton and Judy? Ha-ha... Haven't you heard that those old guys are healing in isolation now? Moreover... do you
really think the Spiritual Cave is just power on a superficial level? Do you think the old dean is the only powerhouse of the King level?"
"Boom..." When Marlon heard the words, his body trembled violently and his pupils suddenly shrank. Yes, he was the head of the most powerful and time-honored family in the Dragon Kingdom, so he knew some secrets that others did not know. He knew that since the Spiritual Cave could pin down the Military Headquarters openly for so many years, they must have cards in their hand. Content from NôvelDr(a)ma.Org.
However, he had made a choice, so he was mentally prepared. Therefore, at this moment, he took a deep breath, looked at Holden, and said, "Young Master, I'm sorry. My family doesn't want the scene a hundred years ago to happen again. The Military Headquarters is different from the decadent dynasty a hundred years ago... They're different..."
"Oh..." Holden nodded coldly, leaned forward to look at Marlon, and said, "Different? Alright, I know what you mean. So, your family wants to help the Military Headquarters this time, right?"
Marlon was silent and didn't talk anymore...
"Ha-ha..." Holden looked colder and colder. Suddenly, he gave a cold snort and hit Marlon with his aura. The next moment, there was a loud bang, and Marlon's body was knocked away. He retreated seven or eight meters in the hall before stopping.
"Poof..." However, the next moment, Marlon spat out a mouthful of blood. He had been seriously injured and couldn't use his combat power in ten days and even half a month. Although Holden was a junior, he was the best talent in the Spiritual Cave. His combat power was not inferior to Marlon's at all. He was even a little bit stronger than Marlon, so Marlon got injured.
"Dad..." Eleanor hurriedly supported Marlon. The next moment, Eleanor looked at Holden and wanted to speak, but Marlon stopped her.
Then Marlon took a deep look at Holden and said, "Young Master, have you vented your anger?" At this moment, Marlon's eyes were completely gloomy. Three Super Gods of the Roxanne family came in immediately. They all stood silently behind Marlon.
In fact, Marlon was not afraid of Holden. He wouldn't be scared as long as it was not a powerhouse of the King level from the Spiritual Cave! Although he was injured, he could fight with Holden if he tried his best. However, he would probably be disabled after the fight. But it was Gotham City! In addition, he had been communicating with the Military Headquarters these days and had reached a series of agreements with the Military Headquarters. The four elders of the Dragon Kingdom would come at the critical moment!
At this moment, Holden, who was sitting on a chair in the hall, stood up slowly and gave a cold look at the three Super Gods behind Marlon. Then he said to Marlon, "Ha-ha... Marlon, you're seriously injured. Do you really think that you and the three Super Gods behind you can stop me? Marlon, can you... stop me?"
Marlon was silent. After a long while, he took a deep breath, stared at Holden, and said, "Whether I can stop you or not, you can have a try!"
Holden took a deep look at Marlon, waved his hand, and said, "Marlon, it's useless to speak harshly. I came here in person, so I thought the Spiritual Cave was sincere enough. But since we can't reach an agreement, forget it. I just hope that your family will be ready to bear the consequence of betraying the sect alliance! Ha-ha... I hope your family can bear it..."
"Humph..." After speaking, Holden snorted coldly and walked out. He had come here to talk to Marlon. Since Marlon insisted on his choice, there was nothing Holden could do.
Just as Holden was about to walk to the gate of the hall, he suddenly paused. The next moment, he looked back at Eleanor who was gorgeous, smiled playfully, and said, "By the way, you are the
eldest daughter of the Roxanne family, so you are qualified to be my maid. Your name is Eleanor, right? Alright, don't say I didn't give you a chance. I'll give you another chance..."
Holden paused, smiled again, and said, "Eleanor, listen carefully. If your family and father can't bear the consequence and you want him to be alive, you can come to the Spiritual Cave to find me. Wash up and dress up beautifully. Be my maid and I'll save your father's life...... Ha-ha......"
Eleanor's body trembled, and a trace of anger flashed through her eyes instantly, but she did not look back. When Marlon wanted to kill Holden furiously, Eleanor grabbed his arm and shook her head at him with tears in her eyes.
At this moment, when Marlon's aura fluctuated, a powerhouse at the peak of the Emperor level flashed outside the Roxanne family. He came to Marlon and the others. There was a warning in his aura, but it soon disappeared. Maybe it was because the powerhouse was afraid of being discovered by the four elders of the Dragon Kingdom.
However, it proved that Holden did not come alone. Holden was the next head recognized by the Spiritual Cave, and he was a talent who would definitely reach the King level within three years, so the Spiritual Cave couldn't let Holden come to Gotham City alone.
Holden was very arrogant and conceited. He knew that his whereabouts might be found by the four elders if he came to Gotham City, but he came here. He liked walking on the edge... Of course, this was just his own ridiculous idea...
At this moment, the three Super Gods who stood behind Marlon were all nervous. Marlon's face was livid, and he was trembling with anger. Holden actually cast a greedy eye on Marlon's daughter! Marlon couldn't stand it! Just now, he really wanted to kill Holden!
Marlon was so mad that his body trembled. Eleanor, who was beside him, was also furious, but she grabbed her father tightly. Once Marlon attacked Holden, the Spiritual Cave would have an excuse
to ruin the Roxanne family. It would be difficult for the Military Headquarters to protect the Roxanne family unless the Military Headquarters started a war with the Spiritual Cave. After all, the Roxanne family killed the young master of the Spiritual Cave first!
It showed how insidious and vicious Holden was!
At this moment, standing at the gate of the Roxanne family, Holden was not vigilant at all. Seeing that Marlon restrained himself, he shook his head, sighed, and said, "Oh, Elder Samuel, why do you have to show your aura? Marlon can't kill me immediately, can he? Alas, you lose a great opportunity..."
Neither Marlon nor Eleanor looked back at Holden who was extremely insidious.
The next moment, seeing that people in the Roxanne family didn't attack him, Holden knew that his plan completely failed. Then he stared at Eleanor, smiled evilly, and said, "Well, Mr. Duncan, you're truly sexy. Keep your virginity and go to the Spiritual Cave to find me in the future. If you lose your virginity, you will be useless... Ha-ha..."
"Oh, boring... It's so boring... I'll leave... Marlon, behave yourself... Ha-ha..." Holden left while laughing after saying that.
"Holden! I will kill you! I will kill you sooner or later!" Marlon clenched his fists hard in the hall and dug nails into his flesh. Drops of blood dripped down. Eleanor was trembling. She held Marlon's arm tightly. They couldn't be impulsive!
'What a shame!' Marlon roared in his heart. He was one of the heads of the nine major families in the Dragon Kingdom, and he was so noble in his daily life! However, he suffered too many grievances these days.
Seven or eight days ago, when Iwan ruined the Patrick family and the Stewart family, he wanted to do something, but he didn't dare to do anything under Iwan's gaze. The day before yesterday, Rendon led ten Super Gods to block his door! Later, he was severely injured by the three elders of the Dragon Kingdom! He felt so aggrieved. Holden came to his door to threaten him on this day! But he couldn't resist and didn't dare to kill Holden directly! The grievances in his heart came to the extreme.
"Poof..." The next moment, Marlon spat out a big mouthful of blood again. He had an internal injury because his heart was full of depression and the circulation of his blood was not smooth.
"Ha-ha... Mr. Duncan, take a good rest, or you won't even have a chance to fight back. If you can't protect your beautiful daughter, she will have to be my maid. Ha-ha......" Holden's arrogant laughter came from the door again.
Marlon was so angry that he couldn't see anything clearly. His body trembled and he was about to fall to the ground. However, a sudden loud bang and Holden's groan were heard at this time. The next moment, Holden's body was kicked back to the hall, and there was a long sword mark on his chest...
Holden's expression changed greatly. He stared at the door and roared with extremely serious eyes, "Who are you? Come out!"
"What?" Marlon and Eleanor subconsciously looked back at Holden who was kicked back. Then they looked outside...
"How dare you!" At this moment, Elder Samuel, the powerhouse who had been hiding outside the Roxanne family, appeared in an instant. He was at the peak of the Emperor level. Holding a long sword in his hand, Elder Samuel was about to rush to Holden.
Just as Elder Samuel was about to attack, Joseph, who was protecting War in the God of War Sect, showed up in front of Elder Samuel with a helpless face. Joseph sighed and said, "Are you Samuel from the Spiritual Cave? Alas, stay here with me for a while. Let the young people solve the problems by themselves..."
When Samuel saw that Joseph suddenly appeared, his expression changed greatly. Staring at Joseph with extremely dignified eyes, he said, "You... are from the God of War Sect!"
Joseph smiled helplessly, nodded, and said, "Yes, so please be calm. Don't forget that the Spiritual Cave is not qualified to fight with the God of War Sect... Calm down and stay here. We old fellows shouldn't interfere in young people's business..."
Samuel took a look inside the Roxanne family. Then he saw a young man walking slowly towards the hall of the Roxanne family with a long sword...
At this moment, under Marlon and Eleanor's shocked gazes, War walked in slowly from the outside with a long sword in his hand. He looked extremely fierce.
The next moment, Holden heard an extremely indifferent voice. "Do you want my fiancee to be your maid? Huh?"
"Boom..." War's aura became violent. His cold killing intent filled the whole hall...
"The young master... of the God of War Sect? No, it's impossible. Why do you come here? No way!" At this moment, Holden felt so scared. Just now, he was so arrogant and even asked Eleanor to dress up beautifully and be his maid.
The reason was simple. The Spiritual Cave was not as aggressive as Gods of War. Moreover, War attacked him with the sword just now, which made him realize he couldn't defeat War...
