Goode started the car and slowly drove onto the suspension bridge. When the car passed the suspension bridge, a creaking sound came from behind again. The suspension bridge slowly rose again. Lancer Castle once again became an isolated castle. The castle was surrounded by mountain streams. If one wanted to enter, it was impossible to reach the castle under such a natural moat unless one had light body skills, could leap over walls, or could fly on a sword.
Goode parked the car in the empty parking lot in front of the castle. He got out of the car and saw a blonde young man walking toward his car. This was Wich Lancer, the grandson of the Lancer Family's family master, Thomas. He was also Goode's cousin.
"Cousin Goode, why are you here so late … Eh? What happened to your face? "Wich looked at Goode, whose face was bruised and bandaged, and was suddenly stunned.
"Don't mention it. I was slapped in the face!" Goode said bitterly, "This time, I really lost all my face!"
"Slapped by someone? Who dares to hit you? After all, the Douglas Family is the most powerful family in Ello Town! " Wich frowned. He naturally began to calculate in his heart. Being able to be cultivated as the first successor of the family was naturally not just because he was Thomas's grandson. He still had some outstanding aspects. Otherwise, it would be impossible to have a firm foothold in this kind of open strife and veiled strife.
Currently, Wich had obviously become the most prestigious young man in the third generation of the family. If there were no accidents, he would become the third generation family master candidate of the family.
Wich's relationship with Goode was very good since they were young. The two did not belong to the same family. Although they were relatives, there was no competitive relationship. Goode was the first successor of the Douglas Family, and Wich was the first successor of the Lancer Family. Both of them were Thomas's favorite third generation children, so there were only benefits and no disadvantages for the two of them to be on good terms! If the two of them were to be promoted at the same time in the future, it was reasonable to help each other.
"Butterfly Family!" Goode said the family's name with a pale face, "I was slapped in the face by a crazy woman in their family!"
"What? It's the Butterfly Family? " Wich was shocked after hearing the name of the Butterfly Family. He naturally knew the origin and strength of the Butterfly Family. The Lancer Family also had business dealings with the Butterfly Family, so he naturally knew the details of the Butterfly Family.
Although the Douglas Family was very powerful in Ello Town, they were powerless in the face of the Butterfly Family. Wich also understood that Goode wanted the Lancer Family to stand up for him when he saw that Goode had come here so late at night with injuries!
Although he had been on good terms with Good since young, as a descendant of such a large family, the first thing that came to his mind was not to seek revenge for Good, but to consider the pros and cons of this matter! Will the Lancer Family be able to gain any benefits after they intervene? Even if they can't gain any benefits, will there be any losses?
Wich's heart relaxed when he thought that the Butterfly Family and the Lancer Family had no other dealings except for the cooperation in firearms. It seemed that even if the Lancer Family stood up for Goode, the loss to the family would not be great.
The firearms that the Butterfly Family wanted were all rare goods. If they were not sold to them, many people would rush to buy them. There was no need to worry about this cooperation at all. The Lancer Family had the initiative … Wich glanced at Goode quietly when he thought of this cooperation. Could this be his idea?
The Butterfly Family was a family whose main business was assassins. The annual demand for these firearms was quite large. If the supply to them was cut off all of a sudden, the impact on the Butterfly Family would be more than just a little …
My cousin is also a ruthless character! He must have seen that the Lancer Family would not suffer any losses after cutting off the cooperation with the Butterfly Family. That was why he could come here so fearlessly to ask Grandpa to stand up for him!
Of course, if Goode had been replaced by another family member, Thomas would not have casually agreed to such a thing even if he knew that it would not have much impact on the family's interests. Although they had no other business dealings with the Butterfly Family, they would try not to offend such a family as much as possible. There was no need to stand up for some irrelevant people.
But Goode was different. Wich knew very well that Goode's position in Thomas' heart was probably not lower than his own grandson! Therefore, Wich smiled at Goode when he thought of this, "Cousin Goode, don't worry. The Lancer Family will definitely stand up for you! Even if Grandpa doesn't agree, I will definitely speak up for you! "
"If that's the case, then thank you, cousin!" Goode's heart was suddenly excited when he heard Wich's declaration. This time, there was a lot more hope! Although Goode was originally very confident that Thomas would definitely stand up for him, this matter was basically set in stone after Wich's guarantee!
They followed Wich into Lancer Castle. Although Goode was not a member of the Lancer Family, many people in Lancer Castle knew him because of his special relationship with Thomas. When they saw Goode, they greeted him in a flattering manner. As for the injury on his face, these people did not have the courage to ask about it.
Wich asked about Goode's injury out of concern. If some people who were not of high status asked about it, it would obviously cause trouble.
"Cousin Goode, let's rest in the living room first. Grandpa has also heard the news of your arrival." Wich said, "I think he will be downstairs soon."
Goode nodded and sat on the sofa in the living room. Soon, a servant placed tea and snacks in front of Goode. Goode didn't eat before he made a scene in the Butterfly Family. After being beaten up, he didn't have the mood to eat, so he didn't hold back at this moment. He grabbed a few snacks and put them into his mouth. He lived in the castle for a period of time every year since he was a child. He was very familiar with this place. It was like his own home, so he was very casual.
Not long after, footsteps came from the stairs. A vigorous and powerful voice came down first, "My grandson Goode, it's so late. Why did you come to grandpa's place?"
Thomas was also very puzzled about Goode's sudden visit. After the guard sent the news, he first asked Wich to confirm it. He then put down the things in his hands and came over.
"Grandpa …" Goode stood up quickly. Wich also quickly stood up from the sofa and stood there respectfully, waiting for Thomas to come downstairs.
"What happened to your face?" Thomas's eyes suddenly froze when he saw Goode. His sharp gaze stopped on Goode's face. His tone also became gloomy with an indescribable sense of killing.
"Grandpa, Goode is useless. I was bullied, but I didn't dare to fight back!" Goode lowered his head in grievance.
"Who dared to hit you? How can someone hit my grandson just because they want to? "Thomas's face was filled with unspeakable anger! As one of the top families in Europe, the Lancer Family had not been bullied for many years. Now, his grandson was beaten up. Although he was not a member of the Lancer Family, who didn't know that he was his grandson? What was the difference between this and bullying the Lancer Family?
"It's someone from the Butterfly Family!" Goode heard Thomas's tone and knew that there was a chance! He said quickly.
"Butterfly Family?" Thomas couldn't help but frown after hearing this name. Thomas had business dealings with the Butterfly Family over the years, so he naturally knew the ins and outs of the Butterfly Family. Thomas still maintained a trace of reverence for this mysterious assassin family. If it were any other family, Thomas might have brought people and rushed to their door, shouting and yelling. However, Thomas didn't have much confidence in the Butterfly Family. However, looking at Goode's face that was beaten beyond recognition, he still asked in a deep voice, "Why did they hit you? Tell me the details of what happened. If they bully you, then don't worry. Grandfather will definitely stand up for you! "
