"That's great. I have a master too! Big Sister, do you think I can become as powerful as you in the future? " Yabemiya had a ring on her finger and a golden necklace around her neck. She held onto Elizabeth's arm happily with a longing look on her face.
Louis and Mia agreed to start teaching her cultivation in a few days before leaving with Jinx.
"Your master is one of the most powerful beings on Dragon Island, and also the most powerful being on the Norland Continent. With him teaching you personally and providing you with unlimited treasures, you will become more powerful than me in the future." Elizabeth looked at Yabemiya dotingly. "The future is bright."
"Wow, that sounds great." Yabemiya's eyes sparkled. "In that case, I will be able to protect you, Big Sister."
Elizabeth stopped in her tracks and looked at Yabemiya with a smile. "We will all become very powerful. No matter if it's the Golden Throne or the Frost Throne, we will be able to take back what Father obtained back then."
"The Golden Throne?" Yabemiya furrowed her brows slightly.
"Shh. Don't say anything later." Right at this moment, Elizabeth suddenly let go of Mia's hand and shielded her behind her at the same time. She looked at the empty street in front of her with a grave expression.
"Hmm?" Yabemiya looked ahead in confusion. There was nothing on the street, so why was Elizabeth so nervous?
"Come out, Great Elder," Elizabeth said with a cold expression.
A hexagonal snowflake appeared on the ground in front of them, and a figure in an icy-blue robe appeared.
"Elizabeth, why do you have to be so wary of me?" Douglas said with a sigh.
"Father said that we must always be on our guard against our enemies and those who can watch us die," Elizabeth said calmly.
"Rankster's words are always refreshing." Douglas nodded slightly.
Elizabeth was silent as she looked at him warily.
Douglas's gaze went past her and landed on Yabemiya. Then, he couldn't help but ask, "Little girl, who are you to Louis?"
Yabemiya looked at Elizabeth, and thought of her earlier instructions. She hid behind her better, and didn't answer.
"She is Louis' new disciple," Elizabeth answered for her.
"New disciple?" Douglas was shocked. He had known Louis for thousands of years, and had never heard of him taking in a disciple. But he took in a new disciple in Chaos City?
However, there was no mistaking Louis's aura on the little girl. She must have received some sort of token from him to remind the old guys that she was under his protection.
Douglas's gaze landed on Elizabeth again, and he said in a low voice, "Go back. You still have a chance to sit on the Frost Throne."
"Is there a chance?" A mocking smile appeared on Elizabeth's cold face. "Do you think I should accept such charity gratefully?"
Douglas looked at Elizabeth, and coldly said, "Rankster's daughter doesn't need charity. The Frost Dragon tribe won't give charity to a tribesman. Since you don't want to go back now, I will wait for you to ascend the Frost Throne with your own abilities, just like your father did back then."
The moment he said that, the frost dissipated, and Douglas disappeared too.
"He … seems to have left." Yabemiya stepped forward, and grabbed Elizabeth's hand gently. She then realized that her fingertips were cold, and her palm was a little damp.
"Let's go." Elizabeth's expression quickly returned to normal, and she held Yabemiya's hand as they walked forward.
"Is he the bad guy who almost killed Big Sister?" Yabemiya asked carefully.
"No." Elizabeth shook her head slightly. "But he's not a good person, either."
Yabemiya clenched her fists, and said, "Then let's wait until Mia becomes stronger before we go and defeat this guy!"
"Alright." Elizabeth's lips curled into a smile.
The moonlight elongated their shadows as they walked forward hand in hand.
…
At the entrance of the city lord's castle, Josh alighted from the horse-drawn carriage, and said to Dicus and the others, "There was an accident on the way, so we arrived late. Sorry to trouble you all to welcome us. Please send my regards to City Lord Michael. I will definitely pay him a visit tomorrow."
Dicus took out a gilded guidebook, and handed it to Michael with a smile. "You're too kind, Prince Josh. There will be staff members who will bring you, Princess Vanessa, and the rest to the villa to rest. Tomorrow's itinerary is also in this guidebook. You can take a look at it yourself."
"I'm so hungry …" Vanessa stood behind Josh, and clutched her stomach with an aggrieved expression. She looked at Dicus, and asked, "May I know if the city lord's castle still provides dinner?"
"After you've settled down, the city lord's castle will prepare food and send it to your villas." Dicus nodded.
"I want to eat Mamy …" Vanessa stopped mid-sentence. She thought to herself with resignation, What am I thinking … Mr. Mak must be coaxing Amy to sleep right now. He won't cook for me.
"As long as it's food. Thank you," Vanessa corrected herself.
"This way, please." A staff member led the Roth Empire's delegation into the city lord's castle.
"Big Brother Josh, who were the people who ambushed us today? Why did they ambush us? " When they returned to the villa, Vanessa came to Josh's room while waiting for dinner. She looked at Josh, who was sipping tea at the table, with a hint of lingering fear on her face.
"We still can't confirm which power they belong to, but I've already sent someone to report this to Royal Father. I believe we'll be able to get to the bottom of this very soon," Josh replied calmly.
"How despicable. How dare they ambush us? Luckily, we have more people, and President Richard came with us," Vanessa said angrily as she clenched her fists.
"Don't worry, I'll protect you," Josh said to Vanessa with a smile.
"Mm-hmm." Vanessa nodded. Then, she looked at Josh with a smile, and said, "Now that we've arrived at Chaos City, I can move around freely from tomorrow onwards, right? I haven't seen Uncle Abraham for a long time. I want to pay him a visit. "
"Sure. I'll get someone to send you over tomorrow." Josh nodded. He flipped open the schedule on the table, and calmly said, "I see that the schedule says that we'll have a meeting at Mamy's tomorrow."
"A meeting at Mamy's?!" Vanessa's eyes lit up, and she immediately came forward. The first line of the schedule was indeed to have breakfast and a meeting at Mamy's. The meeting would last for one day.
"Erm … I think it's alright for me to visit Uncle Abraham later. As an important member of the Roth Empire's delegation this time, I think it's very important for me to attend the meeting on the first day to showcase the glory of the Roth Empire," Vanessa said seriously. "Yes, that's it."
