Upon hearing Jenn's words, the woman's expression changed slightly. Perhaps the others didn't realize it, but she clearly understood the meaning behind his words.
It was only at that moment that the woman realized that she shouldn't have appeared. She thought that the Barxianon Mens Family was just trying to provoke them. But now, it seemed like they were here specifically for her?
At this thought, the woman felt a little uneasy. But no matter what, she was the 'mother' of a family. She quickly regained her composure, stared at Jenn coldly, and said.
"I don't know what you're talking about."
"I don't care how stupid you are. Since you're here, don't even think about leaving!"
Jenn couldn't be bothered with the woman's explanation. As soon as he finished speaking, the Aquamarine Light and Shadow Blade in Jenn's hands appeared out of thin air, crisscrossing as they struck at the woman.
"You …!"
In the face of Zayen's attack, the woman's expression changed drastically. She originally wanted to debate with Zayen, or at least get the nobles present to sympathize with her. It would be even better if someone could step forward to help her.
But she didn't expect Jenn to attack without any hesitation. Besides, he used a killing move right off the bat. He was clearly trying to kill her!
At that moment, the woman wanted to say something, but Jenn's attack was already upon her. She couldn't help but gnash her teeth and swing her right hand abruptly. Along with this movement, the long sleeve on her right hand collided with Jenn's two swords.
If it were ordinary clothes, they would have been torn apart by the sharp blades.
But the woman's clothes were obviously not ordinary. When Zayen's swords pierced the light sleeves, they made two "ding" sounds, as if they were hitting iron and stone. Then, sparks flew, and the swords in Zayen's hands were bounced off just like that!
"Tsk, as expected of a bat. Their wings are really tough … Let's attack together!"
Seeing that his attack was blocked, Jenn was not surprised at all. No matter what, the other party was one of the thirteen vampire Elders' families. It would be a joke if he did not have this ability.
But so what?
Wasn't this the reason why he brought so many people here with great fanfare?
Upon hearing Jenn's command, Enoya and Pattilina responded immediately. Then, they brandished their silver spears and lightning scythes to surround the woman.
This "mother" obviously did not expect Jenn to be so shameless. He was clearly a Legendary powerhouse, yet he still ganged up on her. For a moment, she was a little flustered.
"Protect Master!!"
Upon witnessing their 'mother' being besieged, the vampires hiding in the darkness couldn't stay calm anymore. One had to know that their 'mother' was their source of life. If their 'mother' was killed, they would be finished too.
That was why along with a snarl, a dozen vampires scuttled out from the crowd and pounced on the trio.
They knew that their strength couldn't be compared to the legendary Sword Saint at all. They only hoped that they could hold off Jenn's group and buy some time for their 'mother'. As long as their 'mother' could leave, everything would be fine.
But it was a pity that Jenn wasn't a fool.
"— — —!"
Just as the shadowy figures were about to reach the bottom of the platform, a loud, furious roar was heard. At the next moment, a wave of flames descended abruptly. The scorching torrent poured down like a mountain torrent without any warning, enveloping the entire platform.
Many of the men in black were also engulfed by the flames. They let out blood-curdling screams, before turning into pitch-black charcoal and emitting a nauseating smell.
Up until that moment, everyone turned to the source of the eruption, only to discover that a young lady clad in a scarlet dress had appeared in front of VIP Room No. 39. Her scarlet hair glistened in the brilliance of the flames, and one could even see spots of flames emerging from the gaps between her hair. In her hand, she held a scarlet spear that seemed to be burning with raging flames.
At this moment, bright red magic runes appeared on the tip of the spear. They formed three layers of rings, big, small, and small, and kept rotating.
How many powerful beings does this guy have under him?
Upon seeing this young lady, many of them were astonished.
Some of them still remembered the young ladies that Jenn brought with him back then. But back then, they thought that this young man was lucky with women to be loved by so many beautiful ladies.
But now, it seemed like not only were those women beautiful, but they were also powerful. Where exactly did they come from?
Some of them were shocked by the strength of Jenn's subordinates, while some were dissatisfied with the guards who were burned to death by the flames. There were some kind-hearted nobles among the nobles. Not only did Jenn start a fight in someone else's territory, but he also attacked the owner of this auction venue. This put them in a bad mood.
If it weren't for the group of beautiful ladies around Jenn, perhaps many of them would have rushed forward to beat him up after witnessing him 'bullying' that woman.
But now, there were still such people around.
"This is too much!"
Gazing at the guards wailing in anguish and turning into ashes in the flames, a handsome young man slammed the table, stood to his feet, picked up his sword, and strode toward the door.
But before he could open the door, a deep voice sounded from behind him.
"Hold it right there. What are you trying to do!"
"Father!"
Upon hearing this voice, the young man turned around and gazed at the old man in white armor who was sitting on the other side.
"These thugs are so lawless that they dare to openly commit crimes in the Royal Theater. Shouldn't we step in to stop these thugs' cruel actions?
You've always taught me to punish evil, promote good, and uphold justice. Now that something like this has happened, are we supposed to sit back and watch? "
"I've also taught you to use your brain when you encounter problems!"
Upon hearing the young man's question, the old man glared at him helplessly.
"It's not like you don't know that apart from us, the people in charge of the Sky Castle and the Jade Eyes have also come to this auction today. Are you the only messenger of justice here? Are all of us old men blind?"
"This …"
Upon hearing the old man's words, the young man was speechless. Indeed, the Sky Castle and Jade Eyes were well-known forces on the Klein Continent, and the people who were here today were their leaders. Logically speaking, with their strength, they shouldn't be afraid of a group of thugs at all, let alone sit back and watch.
But now, his father was sitting here motionlessly, and the other two forces didn't react at all. Could it be that they were afraid of the Barxianon Mens Family?
That didn't make sense, right? So why didn't they take action?
"You … If you don't change your reckless nature, you won't even know that you're being used!"
Looking at the doubt on his son's face, the old man sighed helplessly. He only had this one son at an old age, so he naturally spent a lot of effort to nurture him. But now, it seemed that his son was still too young. Hence, he sighed helplessly and gestured for his son to sit down.
Then, he pointed to the outside.
"You should know Sir Jenn of the Barxianon Mens Family, right?"
"I've heard of him."
Upon hearing the old man's question, the young man nodded, but a trace of disdain flashed across his face. Obviously, he was very dissatisfied with Jenn's arrogant appearance.
Looking at his expression, the old man sighed inwardly. But he also knew that most young people were hot-tempered, so he didn't mind.
Instead, he said, "Then you should know how he obtained his noble title, right?"
"Of course I know. He's a decorated noble. What's wrong with that?"
Almost everyone knew that Jenn was a decorated noble. This was because Jenn was too good at stirring up trouble. Ordinary decorated nobles weren't famous, and no one was as high-profile as Jenn and stirred up trouble everywhere.
After a while, it was impossible for people not to know that he was a decorated noble.
"That's right, he's a decorated noble, a noble conferred a title by the Church of Holy Light. Do you think he would do such a thing for no reason?"
"This … Who knows? Maybe this guy is just an arrogant person."
Facing his father's question, the young man was a little surprised. But he curled his lips and didn't take it to heart.
Instead, he watched the battle below nervously and said.
"Father, we really don't need to care?"
"It's best not to. I think … there might be something wrong with the owner of this auction house!"
"Something wrong?"
Hearing his father's answer, the young man couldn't help but be surprised.
"But it was the Barxianon Mens Family who came to provoke us …"
"Could it be that the one who comes to provoke us is a bad guy and the one who gets bullied is a good guy?"
Facing his son's disappointing answer, the old man glared at him again.
"Your old man leads troops to suppress bandits every day. Could it be that I'm a bad guy and those bandits are good guys?
That I shouldn't have come to bully them?
Or is it that this beautiful woman is a good guy?
That kid has a bunch of beauties around him. Why don't you think he's a good guy? "
"This, I-I didn't mean it that way, Father …"
Facing his father's criticism, the young man looked awkward.
Hearing his answer, the old man glared at him again.
"So in the future, be more cautious when you encounter things. Don't yell and kill for no reason. Don't be afraid of getting into trouble, but if you make a mistake, you'll be unlucky!
In my opinion, this Barxianon Mens Family is here for the Royal Grand Theater!
That kid has been acting all along. "
"Acting?"
"That's right."
Hearing his son's question, the old man nodded and his eyes flashed.
"He made such a high-profile appearance and won so many auction items in order to give people a feeling of arrogance and rudeness. After that, he fought with the Keynes family, which made people think that he was arrogant and rude.
This made us all feel that this Barxianon Mens Family is a rude and arrogant family.
And if he continues like this, the auction house will definitely step in to stop him. And with the arrogant attitude he showed before, it's normal for him to wreak havoc in the auction house. Don't you think so? "
"This … seems about the same."
Hearing his father's analysis, the young man nodded.
Just like the others, he was surprised to see that Jenn dared to fight in the Royal Grand Theater. But after thinking about Jenn's previous performance, he wasn't that surprised anymore.
Hearing his son's answer, the old man let out a snort.
"That's why I said that this kid is incomparably sinister. He was clearly targeting the Royal Grand Theater, but he still acted as though he was going with the flow.
He made the owner of the Royal Grand Theater let her guard down until she personally showed her true colors … I think this matter isn't as simple as it seems. As an honored noble, there must be something going on behind the scenes for him to dare to kill so many people in the Royal Grand Theater. If not, why would the Holy Church have no reaction when the news of him killing so many people in the Royal Grand Theater gets out?
Or do you think that he and his people can kill everyone here to keep their mouths shut?
There must be something fishy going on. Don't go out and embarrass yourself, lest you fall into a trap! "
"Yes, Father!"
Hearing his father's words, the young man was startled and immediately lowered his head, drenched in sweat.
Previously, he didn't see the problem at all. Only after his father pointed it out did he realize that there were actually so many tricks to this.
Then, he calmed his thoughts and looked down with his father.
At this moment, on the ruins of the high platform, the battle between the woman in red and Jenn's group was getting more and more intense.
As the owner of the auction house, she, of course, knew that there were many families and factions here today. Originally, she hoped that one of them could stand out and 'uphold justice' for her.
However, these nobles were sly old foxes. Perhaps they were angry in the beginning, but now, they realized that something was amiss.
Even the Keynes Family, who didn't get along with Jenn, remained silent. It was apparent that they didn't intend to get involved in this mess.
Looking at this scene, the woman in red complained in her heart.
She originally hoped to fish in troubled waters, but now, it seemed that she couldn't protect herself and had been forced into a desperate situation.
In order to conceal her identity, she couldn't go all out. Otherwise, as long as she went all out, these sly old foxes would immediately realize her true identity. When that happened, not to mention herself, even the Royal Theater would be finished.
This was an industry that she had painstakingly managed for hundreds of years. Anyone would feel reluctant if it were to be toppled.
But if she didn't go all out, she would only die if the battle continued.
Jenn, Enoya, and Pattilina were killing with every move and didn't give her a chance to retaliate at all.
Not only that, but the woman in red also keenly sensed that there were two mysterious auras in booth 39 that had locked onto her. She didn't know when they would attack.
At this thought, the woman gritted her teeth. This can't go on!
