Edge of the Apocalypse
Chapter 576: Impulse

Horn gave Fuding a strong hug. This was a sincere friendship from birth to death. The grey-haired man's body stiffened at first, but then he quickly softened. "Master is still as strong as before," he replied with a strong hug.

"Of course, right now, I can still beat you to the point where you can find your teeth all over the floor."

Fordin laughed and said, "Let's not talk about it. I'm tempted."

"Then let's play a few tricks sometime, you don't know. There really aren't many people who dare to fight with me right now, but my hands are itchy." Horn shook his fist and smiled.

The door was knocked on and Horn said, "Come in." Blood Scorpion Anna pushed open the door and entered. Seeing her former companions, Anna stepped forward and embraced Fordin. The two of them pressed their cheeks together before letting go of their hands. '"Hey, are you alright? Beauty." Fudin smiled brightly.

"Is this your technique? I have to say, Fuding, from the beginning, your method has been terrible." Anna blinked her eyes and added, "I'm doing well. Master takes good care of me. Look, I can take good care of my family now if I do something inconspicuous."

Horn shook his head and said, "Anna did a lot of things. You just got back, Fuding, and you don't know a lot of things. Let Anna walk around with you in the next few days and get to know what's going on."

Fordin whistled, "I'm looking forward to it."

He took off his windbreaker and patted the gun on his waist. "I've just come back, but I've heard that Old Baker did something stupid. Master, should I help you pay him a visit? Your brother, I've been looking down on him for a long time."

Horn looked at Anna. The latter said calmly, "I felt that this matter could not be concealed from Fuding and the others, so I took the initiative to tell Fuding that if Master wants to punish me, I am willing to accept it."

"Forget it. I'll let them know sooner or later." Horn shook his head and said, "Baker and Main are working together to deal with me." Moreover, he was prepared to understand that such a thing as Li Liquid was indeed vicious. But first, we don't have any direct evidence. Second, killing him is easy, but it will shake the loyalty of the other elders to me. So I insisted on what I told Anna before, actively gathering evidence and secretly taking over Beck's property. When everything is ready, use the power of thunder to make sure that he does not have any ability to retaliate. "

"This way, the turmoil within the clan should be minimized. I think this is the best way to deal with it."

Fordin shrugged his shoulders and said, "Of course it's up to you. Besides, these brainstorming jobs aren't for me. That's Baroque's forte."

"You're just too lazy to use your brain." Anna rolled her eyes at him. Anna was quick-witted, Baroque was full of ideas, and Fuding's combat power was exceptional. He wasn't good at scheming, but that didn't mean he was stupid. It was just that he was more accustomed to using his strength to solve problems.

Fordin bowed exaggeratedly to Anna. "I knew it was another way of complimenting, so I decided to accept it."

Anna shook her head and said, "Your skin has grown as much as your strength."

'"I heard that Master has just recognized a young master. I really want to see him soon." Fuding laughed and looked at Horn.

"You mean Alan." Horn looked out of the window and said, "It's almost time. He should arrive in a few days."

Sure enough, Horn didn't wait too long. Two days later, Horn received news of Alan's return. That evening, a flying car stopped in the square of the castle. Alan brought the setting sun to Horn and said, "Grandpa, I'm back."

"I'm back. Very good." Horn didn't give Ellen a hug as he did a few days ago. He just reached out and patted him on the shoulder. However, the look in Alan's eyes was filled with intense emotion, but it was above all other movements. With just a single glance, Allen could understand how much his grandfather cared for him from the bottom of his heart.

He didn't say anything, only shook Horn's hand.

"Then go rest and freshen up first. There's a banquet waiting for you tonight." Horn smiled.

Alan was no slacker, so he led Lucy and Beth Cod to the wing tower where he lived. As for Adele, she had already parted at the harbor, and Regis was naturally taken away by his father, Bale. The father and son hadn't seen each other for a long time, so they thought they had a lot to say. On the way to the wing tower, Alan suddenly felt a chill in his head. He quickly turned around. He looked in the direction of his senses, only to see a lonely spire. He frowned.

"What?" Lucy gave him a strange look.

Ellen smiled, "It must be an illusion. Just now, someone tried to lock onto my aura."

"This is your Bescot base. No one will do this, right?"

"Who knows? Inside the clan, not all of them are friends and relatives."

Watching Alan disappear from the wing tower, Fuding, who was leaning against the castle peak, whistled, "Little Young Master's senses are quite sharp. It's just that his Origin Energy is a little bit low. He's only at Level 19. At his age, Master has already reached more than this level, right?"

Anna was crouching beside her, and the gale on the tower blew her robes. "Rank doesn't mean everything. Young Master Allen has used his actions many times to prove this truth."

"Oh, Anna is quite optimistic about him." Fordin exaggerated, "Does this boy look like your dear son?"

"Totally nonsense!" Anna rolled her eyes and said seriously, "You know what kind of person Master is." That's right, when he first recognized Young Master Allen, he did so out of a debt to Miss Lanny. However, in the later period, there was a preference for Young Master Allen's resources. If anyone thought that Young Master was simply biased, then this person would definitely be an idiot. "Master will not do meaningless things. It is precisely because Young Master Allen has great potential and is Miss Lanny's child that Master loves him so much."

"Listen to what you mean. Is Master planning to let him be his successor?" Fuding said in surprise.

"If Young Master shows enough strength, I think the answer is … yes."

Fordin nodded and said, "Then this interstellar battlefield is another test for our young master. Hey, even I can't help but want to see his performance on the battlefield now."

It was night, and a private banquet was going on in Castle Ugarte. The theme of the banquet was to clean up the dust for the returning tribesmen, and to wish them dazzling results on the upcoming Star Battlefield. As it was an intra-family banquet, not many people were invited. Apart from the members of the Bescot Family, only the Morsen Family, which had a deep friendship with Bescot, sent people to attend.

Alan found that there were more outsiders at the party tonight than ever before. Apart from the Morsen Clan, there were several other clans. The development of Bethcodt in the past few years was obvious to the outside world. After winning the Sirius armaments contract and almost crippling the Alexandrian family, Bethcodt's rising rankings in Babylon over the past few years made more nobles and nobles choose to rely on this towering tree.

Of course, Alan was happy that his family was prospering. However, it would be even better if he had less malicious gazes. He looked at a corner of the banquet and saw a tall figure standing at the angle. Although he hadn't seen him for three years, Alan still recognized him at a glance. That person was Raynor, who had harbored hostility towards him when he first returned to the clan.

Reina naturally removed his armor tonight and changed into a proper black suit, but the suit still couldn't conceal the volcano in Reina's eyes. He looked at Allen as if there were flames burning in his eyes, but compared to the uncontrollable flames that burst out three years ago. The flames in Lena's eyes were more restrained and deeper.

"Alan, come over here."

Hearing Horn's cry, Alan turned his head away. Horn was smiling and waving at him. There were quite a few people standing beside him, seemingly planning to introduce themselves to the people from other clans. Alan put down his glass and walked over generously. Behind him, the flames in his line of sight became even more intense.

Suddenly, the line of sight in Reina's eyes was blocked by another figure. Roddy frowned as he looked at his son. "What's wrong with you? Didn't I say before I came back that you shouldn't cause trouble for Alan again? He's your brother anyway."

"But I just don't like him!" Reina poured himself a glass of wine. "Father, look at him. Grandpa's gaze fell on him at least half the time he came back!"

Roddy laughed and stretched out his hand to pounce on his son's head, "So you're jealous of Alan."

Reina's face was flushed red as he gritted his teeth and said, "I didn't. I just don't think he deserved to be valued so much by my grandfather!"

Roddy's thick arm rested on Reina's shoulder and pouted in Allen's direction, "Look, son." Dad is standing next to you, and when you get home later, your mother will talk nonstop. But when Alan returned, he only looked at Lanny's old house. Son, that brother of yours has lost his parents. What kind of perseverance do you think he has to rely on to live on the surface for five years? "

'"So don't blame your grandfather for being so kind to him. He deserves it. After all, he has lost too much. Your grandfather just wants to make up for the time he has lost. And you have to admit that Allen has done quite well so far."

Reina pushed his father's hand away and gritted his teeth as he took a step forward. Roddy hurriedly put his hand on his shoulder and said, "Hey, kid. You don't want to do anything impulsive again, do you?"

"Father, let me be impulsive again. If I don't prove anything, I won't accept it!" Rena drank the wine in his glass and placed it on the table. Then, he walked towards Alan with a volcanic aura.

Roddy sighed and shook his head, "Then you can do whatever you want. Don't come back to me crying, brat."
