Chapter 2183 Conspiring Against Him
At Stormwind Sect, Hugh was about to leave to attend the meeting, but he summoned Emiliano beforehe left.
Emiliano had undergone genetic modification and gained immense strength. However, he made sure toconceal his aura when he was around Hugh.
“Dad, you wanted to see me?” Emiliano asked.
“Emiliano, have you heard about the Spring of Regeneration drying up and the collapse of KaziIlionMountains?” Hugh asked.
Emiliano nodded. “Yes. People are saying that the ancient ruins of Narcissus Palace have emerged, somany have already made their way up the mountain.”
“The earthquake at Kazillion Mountains may have been caused by the reappearance of the ancientruins of Narcissus Palace. I want you to lead a team to investigate, but be aware that the ruins areextremely perilous. Do you feel confident enough to take on this task?” Hugh asked, placing areassuring hand on Emiliano's shoulder.
Emiliano was initially stunned, but the excitement quickly overtook him. “Dad, a-are you really lettingme explore the ancient ruins of Narcissus Palace?”
“Of course. If you don't go, who else is going to?” Hugh responded.
“W-Will my brother agree to it?” Emiliano asked.
Hugh snorted and said, “Your brother is still at Reflection Cliff, reflecting on his mistakes. That uselessboy is just disappointing me more and more every day.”
Deep down, Emiliano was extremely excited. He vowed, “Dad, don't worry. I'll find the ancient ruins ofNarcissus Palace at any cost. Even if it's perilous, I must explore it.”
“Very well. That's the spirit of a true son of mine!” Hugh exclaimed, giving Emiliano an approving pat onthe shoulder. “Make sure to bring a team of capable men with you. If any other martial artists try to takethe ancient ruins from us, eliminate them all without mercy.”
“Dad, can I bring Mr. Westwood along?”
Emiliano planned to bring Tucker along as his biological father was capable, and he hoped that Tuckerwould benefit from exploring the ancient ruins as well.
Hugh's eyes flickered with sudden malice, but he quickly composed himself and answered seriously,“He needs to stay here.
I have a meeting to attend, and you're going to leave as well. We need someone to stay behind atStormwind Sect to take charge.”
His words made sense, so Emiliano nodded in agreement. “You're right, Dad. Mr. Westwood shall stayat home, then.”
After Emiliano turned to leave, Hugh followed his retreating back with a cold glint in his eyes.
Meanwhile, Tucker was currently with Emiliano's mother in a room within Stormwind Sect.
Having successfully modified Emiliano's genes, they were now plotting when to eliminate Hugh andseize control of the entire Stormwind Sect.novelbin
“Mom, I'm going to Kazillion Mountains to seek the ancient ruins of Narcissus Palace!” Emiliano camein excitedly to inform his mother of the good news.
However, he shut his lips awkwardly upon discovering that Tucker was also around.
“Emiliano, what's going on? Why did you suddenly get the idea to explore the ancient ruins?” hismother asked.
“Mom, it was Dad's idea for me to lead an exploration team to the ancient ruins of Narcissus Palace.The collapse of the Kazillion Mountains is most likely due to its reappearance, and there may bevaluable treasures waiting to be discovered. This expedition could also help me increase my strength!When I return, Garthor won't be able to act arrogant anymore. He will no longer be my match!”Emiliano explained eagerly to his mother.
“The ancient ruins of Narcissus Palace?” Tucker's brows puckered up. “That is a dangerous place. Whywould Hugh allow you to lead the exploration?”
Emiliano said with enthusiasm, “I'm aware that exploring the ancient ruins is perilous, but my dadinstructed me to bring more men to gain experience. This is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity. Garthorwanted to come along, but my dad refused. He is extremely disappointed in Garthor."
