Chapter 1176: Chapter 361 The Underworld Train Heading to the White Family_2 Chapter 1176: Chapter 361 The Underworld Train Heading to the White Family_2 “Hmm.”

Sophia Jones’s eyes glittered as she nodded with a smile.

Having just ascended to a new realm, the powerful Demonic Power she had gained was not yet fully under her control.

But it was that faintly overflowing ethereal aura that allowed Leonard Churchill to sense it, and he was greatly surprised in his heart, “So strong!”

He had not never seen a Seventh-Order Card Master before.

But unlike Barre Shepherd or Aragon, Sophia had an aura of the Immortal Aegis Animals, and a valiant air like that of a Lady Valkyrie.

Sophia looked at the two of them and said with a light laugh, “Thank you for your help these past few days…”

Her advancement had gone smoothly.

Having inherited the White Family’s Secret Skill, her ascension was far easier and safer than Barre’s, who had to figure everything out on his own.

A Legendary Card Master’s strength was already far beyond that of an ordinary Sixth Tier, and her body and Law Comprehension for the ascension were adequate; moreover, the Divine Power as the anchor for her flesh had worked as expected, preventing her flesh from being mutated by the vast Demonic Power.

Everything had fallen into place naturally.

Seven Brown was seeing a Seventh-Tier Card Master for the first time, as such beings were considered “legends” in the East Wilderness.

Her perception was not as sharp as Leonard’s, and she could not clearly discern the subtle aura of the Immortal Aegis Animals, but she also detected Sophia’s transformation and asked, “Aunt Jones, why do I feel like your entire disposition has changed?”

As she spoke, feeling uncertain, she unceremoniously reached out and touched.

She felt and pinched around that impressive figure.

Sophia lightly slapped Seven’s increasingly unrestrained slender hand, smiling as she explained, “This is the overflow of ‘Divine Power’. I haven’t been able to fully control it since I just advanced; it will settle down in a couple of days.”

Leonard listened and pondered as well.

This Divine Power was very different from the one he had seen with Barre Shepherd.

Resolute, tough, valiant, and within that gentleness… there was an undefiled, God-like presence.

Seven, however, was feeling real Divine Power for the first time and expressed her surprise, “Aunt Jones, is this Divine Power?”

“Hmm.”

Sophia nodded her head.

She knew what the two of them were confused about, and added, “Divine Power is the external manifestation of an individual’s Will, which is inherently different. And the ‘Divine Power’ I have comprehended is even more different from that of other card masters. Besides my own Will, it also includes the Will of the contract with the Immortal Aegis Animals. Hence, it is tinged with some Immortal Spirit Qi… The smoothness of this ascension owes a lot to the protection of the Ancestral Spirit of the Immortal Aegis Animals.”

Seven was half understanding and half confused.

Leonard, on the other hand, understood a bit, feeling as if an enemy wanting to deal with Sophia would have to contend with both her and the Immortal Aegis Animals together.

Even before ascension, Sophia’s combat power was already among the top in the East Wilderness, but how much stronger was she now?

However, regardless, successfully ascending was good news.

Leonard felt there was plenty of time to ask for guidance.

…

“Aunt Jones, are you going to the City of Thieves?”

“Hmm. I had planned to do so. Originally, I was thinking of going after the battle at Talon City. I never expected that by a stroke of luck, I would successfully ascend to the Seventh Grade. Now, I’m even more confident for this trip.”

“…”

The City of Thieves is the stronghold of the White Family.

Leonard knew what Sophia was up to.

Back in the Plague Marsh, the White Snake that had lived for three thousand years had hinted that to obtain the complete inheritance of the White Family, one had to acquire the family’s three major Holy Artifacts.

It seemed to be a test as well.

The Lamp of Ten Thousand Immortals, Scroll of Immortal Laws, and God-stealing Ring.

Now the ring was in his hands, whereas the other two were with the members of the White Family.

Especially the Scroll of Immortal Laws, on which rested countless immortal spells and secrets of the White Family’s inheritance over tens of thousands of years.

But the strength of the White Family should not be underestimated.

Back when the Federation had five Senators, the White Family was unassuming but definitely the strongest among them.

Now, they also had the High Priest of the Orlan Royal Court.

If Sophia went to ask for the inheritance Holy Items, those people would definitely not hand them over easily.

Ever since witnessing the endless trump cards of the Orlan Royal Family, Leonard had gained a deep understanding of the heritage of these ancient families that dated back to the Taron Dynasty.

If she was really going to trouble the White Family, a Legendary Card Master would definitely not be enough.

Even now that Sophia had ascended to the Seventh Grade… it was hard to say.

Moreover, it was going to their stronghold to make trouble.

Seven also thought of this and immediately said, “Aunt Jones, I will go with you!”

Sophia smiled and shook her head, “I’m not going there to fight. I’m not interested in anything the White Family has. I just want to try and see if I can gain recognition for the Holy Artifacts…”

Seven now possessed the Hunting God Armor, which made her very powerful in combat, but she couldn’t possibly wear it all the time.

The White Family’s myriad mysterious methods were quite peculiar, and going might not necessarily be beneficial.

Seven herself understood this and, with a flash of disappointment in her eyes, said no more.

Leonard thought for a moment and then asked in an inquiring tone, “Aunt Jones… why don’t you take me with you?”

He had always been curious about the Secret Skills of the White Family.

If he had the chance to experience them, he certainly wanted to go.

Plus, he hadn’t forgotten that Sophia had said she would guide him in understanding his Domain and Divine Power; if he could go with her, there would be plenty of time.

Sophia glanced at him, a flicker of thought in her eyes, and soon agreed, “That might be a good idea.”

She knew that if Leonard was asking, he must have made an accurate risk assessment.

But the guy’s character was never one to be deterred by danger.

Besides, she had just advanced to the Seventh Grade, which gave her some confidence.

Even if her objectives were not met, she was confident she could leave unscathed.

Furthermore, Leonard’s strength and capabilities were not weak, and he might not need her looking after him.

Adding to this, Sophia mentioned, “Your Myriad Aspects Domain requires the strengths of many Sequences, and the White Family’s inherited ‘Scroll of Immortal Laws’ has just what you need.”

Hearing this, Leonard was also pleased.
