Chapter 143 Death Threat
Chapter 143 Death Threat
When the Nicholas family had just moved to Winterfrost, all the resources the entire family clan had then were not as many as what Ron had brought back this time.
These resources were enough to allow the Nicholas family to advance by another level, and the strength of the entire family clan would also increase.
Ron had given Norton most of his resources for safekeeping and to distribute them reasonably to the clansmen.
"Brother Ron? Is that Brother Ron?"
"Is he very powerful?"
"Of course. Grandpa has said that he has improved very quickly. He is now the person with the highest cultivation base in the family."
"I'm going to be as good as Brother Ron."
In the garden outside the hall, the three children were hiding behind a tree and whispering to each other. That's right, these three were the three children who had been lost outside.
The only girl was Lily, and the tallest was Pavel's son, named Dick, who was now ten years old. The shorter little boy was Peter's son, named Devon, who was nine years old.
Now Lily had changed her name to Cecily Nicholas, but everyone was more used to calling her Lily.
Although Lily was the youngest among them, she was the fastest in learning and had a lively personality. Hence, she became the leader of the three.
The three children were very curious about their elder brother, who had gone to the trial realm and successfully returned. They had quickly run here to secretly watch him.
Suddenly, they realized that someone had walked out of the hall. It seemed that he had discovered the three of them, so they wanted to run quickly. Unexpectedly, Lily and Dick bumped into each other and made a "Ouch!" sound, which attracted the attention of Norton and the others.
Norton stood in the doorway and waved at the three of them. "Come here, Lily."
The three of them hurried over. Norton introduced the younger siblings to Ron in turn. The few of them looked at him curiously.
Ron could clearly sense that the energy in Lily was different from that of the other two. "Lily has reached the novice level. You're amazing."
Lily could not help being very happy when she heard Brother Ron's compliment. Moreover, he was so powerful. She admired him.
"Brother Ron, you're the strongest in the family, aren't you?" Lily asked quickly.
"That's true, if it was according to one's cultivation base, but this is only temporary. Lily is so smart. If you work hard, you will definitely surpass me in the future," said Ron as he stroked Lily's head.
Lily was even happier to hear Ron's affirmation of her, and it also increased her confidence in learning magical power and swords.
Lily pestered Ron again to tell her more about the trial realm, and they talked for a while before they returned to their respective rooms.
Then, Norton brought Ron to see Xi Bolai. Ron was also very curious about this old man. As for why Xi Bolai had come to the Nicholas family, Ron only understood after hearing Norton's explanation.
Ron had not expected a person with such a high cultivation base to stay here and not leave just because he wanted to take in a disciple.
However, Ron knew that this was impossible. The ancestor of the Nicholas family was so powerful, there was no need for them to take an outsider as their teacher.
The day passed quickly. Ron had just closed his eyes to rest for a while. When he opened them again, he found himself in a place like a paradise.
And here, there was an old man looking at him benevolently. This was not the first time Romo had visited Ron in his dream, and Ron was already used to it.
"Old Ancestor." Ron greeted Romo respectfully.
"Sit down and talk," Romo said. "I already know that you have killed everyone from the four large family clans in the trial realm. You don't have to worry. I didn't tell them this because I was afraid that the others would be too worried. If the other party really wants to take revenge, I also have a solution."
Upon hearing the Old Ancestor's words, Ron was finally relieved after having been worried these few days. He had been worried that the Old Ancestor would blame him for being too reckless.
Now, he knew that the Old Ancestor did not blame him for this matter, nor was he angry that he had caused trouble for the family clan.
"So what's the solution?" Ron asked again. He was really worried that the four large family clans might suddenly charge to their door.
He could not just stand there helplessly, right?
However, Romo did not tell him directly. It was not that he did not want to tell him this, but he had not thought about this comprehensively. If it did not work, it would be a slap to his face.
Although Ron did not know what the plan was, he was very much relieved after hearing from his Old Ancestor.
"Your mission after this is to seize the opportunity while you are in good condition to cultivate. Don't think about anything else," said Romo.
After he had given instructions on these matters, Romo answered some of Ron's questions and checked on Ron's state of improvement in the trial realm in the past few days.
By the time these things were settled, it was almost daybreak. Xi Bolai had sensed something again and was jolted awake.
Xi Bolai carefully sensed it. It turned out that Ron's cultivation base had risen to its peak. However, this was within expectations, and there was nothing to be shocked about. He had long been used to this.
However, what Xi Bolai could not understand was that, from his observation, it would take at least three months for Ron to reach his peak. How could this happen? Moreover, this kind of situation had also happened to Zoro.
Lily and even Norton's cultivation levels had increased at an abnormal speed. They were ten or even a hundred times faster than ordinary people. So, what secrets did the Nicholas family clan have?
Intense curiosity had driven Xi Bolai, and a thought suddenly popped up in his mind. He wanted to apply some special methods to find out.
However, just as this thought popped up in his mind, Xi Bolai was shocked. He kept berating himself for having such a thought.
Xi Bolai, however, discovered that he could no longer control the energy in his body. It seemed as if it was about to rush out of his body. With his last bit of rationality, Xi Bolai controlled the energy and finally gained control of it. He suddenly lost all his strength and lay on the bed.
Xi Bolai was also sweating profusely, as if he had just gone through a fierce battle. At that moment, he had actually felt the threat of death.
