Nash had always been known for repaying kindness and naturally kept his promises.
Half a month ago, he had an easier time defeating the Southern Martial Alliance because of their help.
Hearing this, Bertram immediately called these families.
"Hello... is this the Sloans in Eastjon?"
"Who''s this?"
"I''m looking for Lord of Henley."
"Oh, you''re Bertram, right?" Julian answered, sounding excited.
"Yeah, it''s me. Put the Lord of Henley on the phone."
Soon, the Lord of Henley, Isaac, answered the call respectfully, "Hello, Master Bertram!"
Bertram grunted arrogantly and said, "Get a Mystique Loyalty Realm expert to dwell Vi No. 1. Our sir has a gift for you!" "Alright, I''ll arrange it immediately," Isaac replied, taking a deep breath.
He had already guessed what Nash''s gift was. The Sloans could further enhance their strength in Henley City with this gift. Bertram then called the remaining few families.
When all the families heard that Nash had a gift to give, almost all of them immediately made arrangements. Some of the patriarchs even nned toe in person.
...
A family meeting was happening in ckburn at the Murphys'' residence.
The patriarch, Jasbian, spoke, "I''ve called everyone here to discuss the marriage between my daughter, Yvaine Murphy, and the Gaghers."
"Sir, you''re wise. The Gaghers have a strong background. If we unite with them, our family will surely excel for another 200 years!"
"The eldest son of the Gaghers is exceptionally talented. He has be a candidate for the next generation of six elders in the Sakaris Mountain Sword Sect. Within 50 years, the eldest son of the Gaghers will break through to the Profound Oriental Realm, bing a core elder of the Sakaris Mountain Sword Sect.
"If Yvaine marries the eldest son of the Gaghers, our position in Sakaris Mountain will rise!"
The crowd was in an uproar.
The high-level members of the Murphys unanimously agreed to marry Yvaine into the Gaghers.
Jasbian stroked his gray beard, smiling with satisfaction, "Since everyone has no objections, let''s arrange the engagement date for Yvaine and Luca Gagher!"
"I object!"
Yvaine stood up from the couch.
"I have cultivated diligently since childhood to control my own destiny!
"Now, I''m an expert in the Mystique Loyalty Realm, a pir in the family. It''s impossible for me to marry into the Gaghers!"
Yvaine''s icy gaze swept over the people present.
"Nonsense..."
Yvaine''s uncle, Zaid Murphy, stood up. "When a man reaches adulthood, he should marry, and when a woman reaches adulthood, she should marry. You''re already 30 years old, long overdue for marriage-"
"Nonsense!"
Yvaine stomped her foot on the ground, and several spider-web-like cracks appeared. The cracks spread rapidly, reaching Zaid''s feet in an instant.
Zaid was sted away, hitting the wall hard before falling to the ground and coughing up blood.
Silence!
The entire living room fell into a deathly silence.
"You''re outrageous..."
Jasbian shoved the teacup off the table next to him.
The teacup smashed with tremendous force toward Yvaine.? N?velDrama.Org - All rights reserved.
She clenched her fist and met it head-on.
The teacup shattered.
The violent true energy shook everyone in the living room to the ground.
Jasbian''s eyebrows twitched uncontrobly.
This woman''s cultivation had improved quite a bit.
He was no match for her now.
Yvaine looked calmly at the patriarch. "Grandpa, if you insist on marrying me into the Gaghers, then I''ll have to fight you!"
Seeing that a hard approach would not work, Jasbian had to choose the nice way. He said earnestly, "Yvaine, I want you to marry into the Gaghers for your good.
"The Gaghers recently deciphered
a treasure map left by their ancestor, and it''s said there''s a method in that treasure that can transform abstract energy into a tangible gold core.
"You have extraordinary talent, but you''ll eventually be stuck at the peak of the Mystique Loyalty Realm. Only by marrying into the Gaghers will you have a chance to break through to the Profound Oriental Realm..."
