Chapter 548: Gathering Strength

Kenny's remaining words hadn't been uttered before he was silenced by the members of the Rodman family, who took him away directly.

When Emilio received the message, he immediately went to find his father. His heart was filled with anxiety, but Kenny was his squire and the assistant assigned to him by his mother's family. He couldn't just ignore it.

"Father, I heard Kenny made a mistake."

Emilio kept a cool face, but his heart was pounding. He forced himself to remain composed, bowed stiffly to Connor, and then spoke.

"He hired someone to kill Lian. Did you know that"

Connor said coldly.

Emilia's heart skipped a beat, then she said with some surprise:

"How is that possible!"

Connor watched his eldest son perform, and his disappointment in him grew.

"Father, I really don't know. This must have been Kenny's own decision."

Emilio excused himself.

"Your attendants are from the Kenny family, and I'll send them back. How they handle it is their business, I won't interfere. However, I will select new guards and attendants for you."

I hope you can understand my heartache. They are too bold, they dare to do this behind your back, sowing discord between you and Lian. You are both my children.

If they succeed, they will frame you for murdering your brother out of jealousy. Do you think a person like that deserves to inherit the family

Connor's expression remained unchanged. He had made up his mind and saw this as a perfect opportunity to reorganize the people around his eldest son, severing ties with the Kenny family completely. There was no need for individual excuses.

Looking into his father's all-seeing eyes, Emilio finally gave up struggling and bowed his head in acknowledgement, accepting the arrangement.

Soon after, the Kenny family saw the guards and attendants sent back by the Rodman family.

The master saw Kenny himself and asked him in detail about the reason for the matter.

Kenny was also very wronged. In order to lessen the punishment, he pushed all the blame onto Emilio:

"Master, I specially told the Young Master before to be patient and wait until Lian leaves West Continent and arrives in East Continent before taking action. Besides, I have already contacted some reliable people in East Continent to ensure that Lian will have no way back."

But the young master, influenced by rumors circulating recently, said he didn't want Lian's reputation to surpass his own, forcing me to act quickly. I really couldn't resist the young master's demands.

"This matter is all due to the wrongdoing of the villain. I am willing to accept the punishment from the homeowner."

Kenny's main frowned and listened, then waved the other party down to take their punishment himself.

The man hesitated for a moment and added, before leaving:

"Master, there is one more thing. The servant did not have time to report it earlier."

Emilio's familiar has a problem, Lord Rhoderman wants to help him extract the unknown substance from the familiar's core, but the young master found an excuse to refuse.

Recently, I've noticed that Master Emilio has become increasingly irritable. Based on my past understanding of him, he should be more cautious and wouldn't make such a low-level mistake at this critical juncture.

After hearing this, Kenny's eyes flashed, and he asked coldly:

"You mean he's been affected by that unknown force"

"Based on the current situation, yes."

"Okay, go get your penalty now!"

"Thank you, host!"

After the man left, Kenny turned to his confidante and said:

"Contact Nana and have her follow the plan. This time, make sure nothing goes wrong."

Yes, Master.

A plot against Emilio is brewing once again, and the culprit is complaining about his father's lack of attention towards him, envying Lian's good fortune. This string of unexpected events has made him notorious.

But he doesn't think, if he encountered the same problem, would he be capable of solving it smoothly

Entering the Silverwheat City through the ripple, a line of people observed the hurried footsteps of mages passing by, watched as people suddenly appeared or vanished on the road, and felt the heavy presence of various elemental forces within the city. Finally, they understood why the Mage Association had chosen to establish itself here.

Upon entering the Silverwheat City, Ripple went straight to rent a small courtyard. After experiencing the battle on the Roniser Sea, Ripple and her companions realized that their magical level was too low. Otherwise, they wouldn't have given the Archmage a chance to escape.

In the next year, Ripple will devote all her time to improving her magic level.

In Silverwheat City, there is the most complete collection of magic books in the West Continent, and high-level mages often exchange experiences with each other, allowing low-level mages to listen.

The Mage Association also regularly invites renowned high-ranking mages to hold magic lectures in Silverwheat City, providing one-on-one guidance for aspiring mages on the verge of a breakthrough.

If you're lucky, you might even encounter a Saint Mage feeling inspired to give a lecture here. As long as your gold is sufficient, there are resources for learning anything you desire, so Ripple, Leia, and Rally settled down to study magic.

And since Golya experienced Simon's betrayal, she became disillusioned with matters of the heart. Although she had a unique phantom beast like Avin, the key in crucial moments was strength. She didn't aspire to be a Golden Knight like Helena, but she also wanted basic self-defense capabilities.

So Helena helped to devise a training plan for her. She would start from scratch, aiming to at least reach the level of a trainee knight before leaving Yincheng.

The Rhoden family, eager to promote the efficacy of the medicines, began producing a batch after receiving Raul's two formulas. Under the supervision of their elders, underage children within the family took the medicines, and the results were highly visible.

There are also some family knights who have been stuck at a certain stage and unable to break through. After using the breakthrough potion, seven out of ten people broke through, which is already a high percentage.

The effectiveness of the two potions was not targeted at certain individuals but had a universal effect. The Rhoden family fully supported Ripple and, in alliance with the White and Nash families, began to expand their sales network across the entire magical continent.

After receiving the cooperation contract from the Rodman family, Raul completely achieved financial freedom. Before his quality-enhancing potions and breakthrough potions had taken over the market, he received a sum of gold coins from the Rodman family.

Raul, known for his extravagant spending, swaggered into the largest herbal medicine shop in Silverwheat City and purchased a batch of herbs he'd long coveted. He then retreated behind closed doors to continue researching his new potion.

Everyone is working hard to improve their strength. Within this year, ripples will also receive important news from the family, such as the discovery of a spatial passage in the Eastern Continent.

Because of the Western Continent's experience, after discovering the anomaly, the Eastern Continent sealed the already constructed space channel and then began arresting people from other worlds who might have entered. They were determined to prevent anyone from other worlds from remaining on the Magic Continent.

And the mythical beast space opened once again. This time, those who entered to forge a bond were extremely cautious. They utilized the magic circle devised by the Magic Association, probing the mythical beasts' cores with magic before confirming there were no issues and then forging the bond.

But only one-tenth of the people were successful. The rest were forcibly sent out of the fantasy beast space by a powerful fantasy beast inside.y plan, didn't you"When the three of them appeared, they were bitten by my little Qing.
