Chapter 518 Fire and Water Are Incompatible
Ripple said goodbye to Rodman, and on the way back to his residence, he met Emilio. He was walking in the garden with Leia. When he saw Ripple, his eyes flashed, he smiled and said:
"Lian, did you go to see your father just now?"
"Well, my father asked me to go out and experience things that I need to pay attention to, so that I can set off as soon as possible."
"Father cares about you."
"Of course, this is my first time traveling far away."
Lianyi and the other party were doing Tai Chi, talking nonsense, and showing off the fact that they were favored.
Emilio's eyes flashed, the smile on his face faded a bit, and he asked seemingly unintentionally:
"Just now I saw the heads of the five families, Heni, Sawyer, Ladi, Senluo, and Dilan, leaving. I heard from the housekeeper that they came to see you."
"Yes, their son is missing. Come and ask me if I have seen him. It's a pity that I didn't even leave the house that day. Where can I meet them!"
Lianyi spread his hands and said.
"Missing? You didn't go out that day?"
"Yes, missing! That day happened to be Leia's first day here. In order to meet the distinguished guests, my father sent someone to notify me early. I will definitely not go out."
Ripple smiled lightly and looked at Emilio with his purple eyes, which contained a different kind of deep meaning.
Emilio blinked the same purple eyes. Although there was a smile on his face, the smile did not reach his eyes.
"Lian, have you already broken through?"
Leia, who was ignored, suddenly intervened in the conversation between the two and asked with a smile.
"Well, I have broken through to the Bronze Knight. This way I will have greater confidence in going out to experience it. We can set off tomorrow!
It's a pity that Emilio has to stay in Lava to assist his father, otherwise he would accompany us. I believe this journey will be more exciting. "
Ripple said with a pun.
"It's indeed a pity. How about I ask Uncle Rodman and let Brother Emilio practice with us."
Leia said with a smile.
"Leia, Lian, I'm sorry! Although I want to go through the training with you, as an older brother, I think it's better for you to complete this training independently. If I follow you, you will become dependent on me and you will not be able to make a good breakthrough. My own limit, this is what I don’t want to see.”
Emilio said seriously, fearing that Leia would actually go find her father.
"Okay! Listen to big brother."
Leia was a little frustrated, but this reason convinced her. Her main focus was on magicians, which really needed to be sharpened. She chose Lian because his knight level had already entered the intermediate level, and his force value was enough to complete their trials.
Ripple said that to deliberately disgust Emilio. Hasn't he been trying to make his presence felt in front of Leia? Then let's do it enough and see how it feels to shoot himself in the foot.
And Ripple is very sure that after he leaves, Emilio will definitely start to establish his identity as the heir, and then make more appearances in Lava City, and even gain his father's favor, and strive to downplay him as Rhodes in the three years he left. The existence of the youngest son of the Man family paved the way for him to become the heir.
If possible, they would secretly bribe some people to eradicate him. After all, a dead successor contender is the least threatening.
Lianyi guessed that without her help in her previous life, Lian would probably have died in the Dark Forest, and there would be no current trial. But now that there is one, Emilio will definitely have other arrangements.
The direction of the matter was consistent with Ripple's guess. Emilio, who returned to his palace, then lowered his face in front of his confidants and said with a cold face:
"That brat Lian actually wants to plot against me! Damn it! If it weren't for him, I wouldn't have stayed away from Lava City for so many years, and I wouldn't have lost my position as the sole heir."
His confidant was matched by the Kenny family. After hearing Emilio’s words, he immediately said:
"Master, in my heart, you are the only heir of the Rodman family. He is a minor and doesn't even have a fantasy beast. What I can do to argue with you is that the most he can do is be verbal. There is no need for you to take it seriously."
"I know! It's a pity that those guys didn't kill Lian, but he disappeared instead!"
Emilio said with some regret.
"Master, since this matter has passed, we should not interfere anymore. When the five families came to the door today, I heard that the head of the family was also there. Since the head of the family knows, even if the disappearance of those people is related to Lian, he will not We will help cover it up, we can’t let the owner of the family find out that our handiwork is involved.”
The confidant was very responsible and wise, so he immediately reminded me.
"I know, I'm just asking you, have all the follow-up matters been handled? Don't involve us."
"Don't worry, young master, it won't happen."
"That's good! Once they leave Lava City, arrange for someone to follow them. When the time is right, take action as soon as possible."
Emilio said calmly, he was not willing to wait any longer.
"Master, this is exactly what I want to tell you. The people I'm looking for are all hiding in the Eastern Continent. We'd better not take action in the Western Continent."
The confidant immediately lowered his voice and explained.
"Are you afraid that father will find out?"
Emilio was not stupid and immediately understood the meaning of his confidant's words.
"Yes, Master! The Western Continent is the territory of the Rodman family. Whether we contact helpers or those desperadoes take action, they will be found out by the family sooner or later. Those people will not keep secrets for us, so to be on the safe side, The Eastern Continent is the most suitable place to start.
That is not the territory of the Rodman family. Even if something happens to Lian, the Rodman family will not be able to reach out, and the Dongfang family in the Eastern Continent will not allow it. This gives us room to operate. "
The confidant analyzed Emilio carefully.
"But how are you sure that Lian will definitely go to the Eastern Continent?"
"Master, you have forgotten that his biological mother is from the Lian family in the Eastern Continent. He has never been to his maternal grandfather's house when he has grown up, so he will definitely go to the Eastern Continent. If you want to be more sure, you have to trouble the young master to come to Leia Mention it in your ears several times.”
"I understand! Although it will take some time, as long as everything can be ensured, it will be fine."
"Yes, young master! What we seek now is stability, and then gradually let the head of the family recognize you. After Lian leaves, I will help the young master establish a good reputation as soon as possible, and gain everyone's recognition step by step."
"I understand. Everything is going according to plan. All we have to do is kill Lian before he turns eighteen! I will never let him form a contract with the phantom beast."
The next day, Ripple and Leia each brought an entourage, each with a silver-armored horse. Under the watchful eye of Rodman, they left Lava City and began their own experience.
Leia had just said goodbye to Emilio, and she felt a little reluctant to say goodbye, but she was still looking forward to being able to go out and experience away from her parents' sight.
"Lian, where are we now?"
"The closest city to Rava City is Tsiye City. It is similar to Rava City and is not interesting. Let's go to Ange Town and have a look!"
"I've heard that Ange Town is the town with the most complete range of medicines in the Western Continent. Eighty percent of the residents there are pharmacists. Do you want to go there to replenish some medicines?"
My dears, Kavin is here today, there will still be time before ten o'clock.
