Aside from Fahd, the other three from the Leopold family returned to Leo City. Returning there, the three of them let out a sigh of relief.
Leo City was the biggest city that the Leopold family controlled. It had a population of a few million. It had always been the main base of the Leopold family.
After thousands of years of operation, it had been perfected by generations of people. The giant rune of the city had a scary defense and attack power.
The powerful defense was enough to keep ordinary Annihilation class elites at bay. The scary attack power was even stronger than Fahd, who was an Annihilation class elite.
With such powerful attack and defense power, even if Gray Fergus attacked, it would be enough to block or even kill him. Returning there, they were safe.
Gray Fergus gave them too much pressure. Even Lord Fahd was no match for him and could only flee, let alone the three of them. The three of them were on tenterhooks along the way, afraid that Gray Fergus would turn back and pursue them.
Fortunately, everything was over. They had returned to Leo City. No one could hurt them there, not even an Annihilation class elite.
"Has Mister Fahd returned?"
The middle-aged man with a white face and no beard asked the leader of the city guards.
"Mister, Mister Fahd has returned!"
The leader of the city guards politely answered.
"Great! Mister Fahd is back. With the giant rune of the city and Mister Fahd, if Gray Fergus dares to come, he will not be able to return."
The woman whose age could not be determined patted her chest. She was relieved. Then, she was angry.
"He has made the Leopold family suffer such a big loss. We cannot let this go!"
"We cannot let this go. If the Leopold family alone is no match for him, then we will work with the other top families. I do not believe he can withstand the combined attack of two top families."
The middle-aged man with a white face and no beard said angrily.
Whether it was him or the woman whose age could not be determined, they both chose to forget that this was caused by the Leopold family. Gray was just being forced to fight back.
"Let's go. We will talk when we see Mister Fahd!"
The patriarch of the Leopold Family, Maxwell, said. He sat in a luxurious carriage and gestured for the other two to follow.
Although he did not reveal his emotions like the other two, his slightly gloomy face showed that his anger towards Gray Fergus was no less than the other two.
The carriage carried the three of them into the city and into a huge manor in the center of the city. After asking where Fahd was, the three of them hurried over.
"Lord Fahd, are your injuries serious?"
Seeing Fahd, the three of them asked anxiously.
Fahd was the only Annihilation class elite in the Leopold family. He could not afford to lose him. After all, if something happened to him, the Leopold family would lose their status as a top-class family.
After losing their status as a top family, the Leopold Family's right to speak and deterrence would be severely weakened. This was something that they, who had already tasted the benefits of being a top family, absolutely did not want to see.
"It's not too serious. I'll recover after a few days of rest."
Fahd shook his head slightly. He did not look any different than usual. However, when he looked at the three of them, there was a hidden coldness in his eyes. The three of them did not notice it.
After confirming that Fahd was not seriously injured, the three of them relaxed. They could not help but turn their attention to the matter at hand. The pale-faced middle-aged man said angrily.
"Lord Fahd, Gray Fergus has made the Leopold family suffer a great loss. We cannot let this go. We must teach Gray and Fergus a lesson."
The more the middle-aged man spoke, the more agitated he became. It was as if the Leopold family had suffered the greatest humiliation in history. If they did not wash away this humiliation, the Leopold family would never be able to raise their heads again. He did not notice that as he spoke, someone had walked out of the room behind him and was looking at him with interest.
This person had black hair and an extremely young face. It was Gray, whom he was preparing to deal with.
The person beside him, the woman whose age could not be determined, and Maxwell noticed. They were so shocked by this unexpected scene that they completely forgot to warn him.
"Lord Fahd, what do you think?
Which top family do you think is suitable to cooperate with? "
After expressing his opinion, the middle-aged man looked at Fahd expectantly. At this moment, a voice sounded behind him.
"You have quite a lot of resentment toward me!"
"Who is it?"
Hearing the voice behind him, the middle-aged man turned around abruptly and was shocked. He could not help but retreat. The person he was preparing to deal with was actually behind him.
"With such a great resentment toward me, if I let you continue to live, I'm afraid you'll end up like those three from the Rollie family."
Gray sneered as he looked at the middle-aged man. Then, he walked over at a moderate pace.
Last time, too many people from the Rollie family had died. If another batch died, there would not be enough people to maintain Rollie City. Therefore, he did not carry out too strict a clean-up of the remaining people.
The result was the betrayal of three people, which brought him the great enemy of the Leopold family.
Although the result was not bad, as he had gained a subordinate with Annihilation Grade combat power and a top force, being betrayed was a fact. This time, in order to control the Leopold family, he decided to carry out a bloody clean-up. He would not let go of any sign of this.
"You, what do you want to do?
Master Fahd, save me! "
Cold sweat broke out on his forehead. The middle-aged man begged Fahd for help. Unfortunately, all he saw was Fahd's cold face. He had no intention of stopping Gray.
Whoosh!
His face, which was already extremely white, became even whiter. It was a paleness of fear. Driven by the will to live, he turned around and prepared to break the wall and escape.
Shua!
A purple light enveloped his body. He stopped crashing into the wall, and his body quickly became old.
His hair turned white, his skin became wrinkled, his face was full of wrinkles, and his body became bent …
The originally middle-aged man became even older than Fahd in an instant. In the end, his eyes were lifeless, and he fell straight down.
One hit and he died!
With Gray's current fourth-stage King class, the time rule ability he used was enough to take away the entire lifespan of a Magic Light.
"Master Fahd, what … is going on?"
Their companion was killed in an instant, but Fahd did not stop it. The woman and Maxwell, whose age could not be determined, looked at Fahd in shock. They had a guess, but they could not believe it.
"From today onwards, the Leopold family belongs to Master Gray. Choose, die or submit!"
Fahd glanced at the two coldly. A terrifying aura emanated from his body and locked onto the two. If they said no, he would immediately kill them.
…
After a bloody purge, almost half of the upper echelons of the Leopold family were killed. The three traitors of the Rolle family were a lesson to be learned. This time, Gray would not be merciful.
Because of this, the Leopold family's strength decreased a lot. However, Gray did not care. He was interested in Fahd, who was a fifth-stage Magic Light, but had the combat power of an Annihilation Class existence. As for the Leopold family, it was just a side benefit.
With his harvest from the Ghost Territory, he did not lack cultivation resources for the next few years. Therefore, it was no longer meaningful for him to control a force. The only use it had was to help him deal with trivial matters, so he did not have to waste time on unnecessary trifles.
"See if the Leopold family has the blood of a disaster-grade mixed ability Gold and Shadow Class Blood Fiend. Also, see if there are any disaster-grade mixed ability Blood Fiends in the Leopold family's collection."
Now that he had complete control of the Leopold family, Gray ordered Fahd.
Fahd responded respectfully and left. After a short while, he returned and reported to Gray.
"Master Gray, the Leopold family does not have the blood of a disaster-grade mixed ability Gold and Shadow Class Blood Fiend in their collection. As for the blood of a disaster-grade mixed ability Blood Fiend, there are a total of two types. One is a disaster-grade mixed ability Blood Fiend with Weaponization and Fire Class Blood Fiend, and the other is a disaster-grade mixed ability Blood Fiend with Lightning and Metal Class Blood Fiend."
"Not even the Leopold family?"
After hearing the report, Gray was slightly disappointed. The Leopold family did not have the blood of a disaster-grade mixed ability Blood Fiend with Metal and Shadow Class Blood Fiend, and the blood of other disaster-grade mixed ability Blood Fiends were not suitable for him.
However, he could understand. The Leopold family was at the bottom of the top families, and only Fahd had the ability to kill disaster-grade Blood Fiends. It was natural that they did not have many disaster-grade mixed ability Blood Fiends.
"Lord Grey, you should be able to purchase the blood of the blood fiends you need in Chaos City. When the rune ship passes by, you just have to send someone to buy it. However, I suggest that you make a trip there personally."
Fahd thought for a while and said.
"You suggest that I go there personally? Why?"
Gray looked at Fahd in surprise. Fahd, who was revived by the resurrection ability, must be completely loyal to him, so it was impossible for him to plot against him. Since he said that, there must be a reason.
"Because in two months, the Chaos Holy Palace's Tower of Trials will open!"
"Tower of Trials? What kind of place is that?"
Gray was puzzled. He had heard of the Chaos Holy Palace before. It was a holy palace on the same level as the Holy Palace of Light. Its strength was extremely terrifying, and the Chaos Territory was under their influence. However, this was the first time he had heard of the Tower of Trials.
"That is a training ground. It is used as a training ground for the disciples of the Chaos Holy Palace. I heard that everyone who enters will have their strength greatly increased after they come out. This place only opens once every five years, and this year is the fifth year that it opens."
Fahd explained.
