Chapter 146: Questioning

Central Magic City.

When the four patriarchs heard this phrase, none of them refuted it.

They also knew that many people longed to enter the Central Magic City. But for those who were not born there or didn’t have any connection in the Central Magic City, it would be highly impossible for them to stay there.

At most, they could only pay a visit for a short period of time.

After that, they still have to go back to their respective cities and would only be allowed to come back when they have other business.

"But why is she here?" The Green Family Patriarch asked.

"I don’t know."

No one could answer.

"It’ll be for the best if she’s really someone from the Central Magic City," the Fourth Head of the Wansu City said in a low voice.

The four patriarchs said nothing but they also felt that way in their heart.

Because if this magic warrior came from any of these three big cities, then it was estimated that there would be no peace in the near future because of this matter.

Many people would be looking for her.

But only these five people had seen her.

It was not exactly seeing as Aya was wearing an oversized cloak, but they saw that the person was relatively short, which increased the possibility of the White Family Patriarch’s conjecture.

"Nevertheless, I’ll still check on the few people who are not present," the Fourth Head of the Wansu City said with a sigh.

Several people were outside,

When the Green Family Patriarch heard this, he frowned.

If he was not wrong, his sister in law was also outside.

Hopefully, nothing bad will happen.

...

The Green Family Patriarch went back home and found 4 people were waiting for him. His wife and his sister in law’s students were all here.

This made him feel a bit awkward.

"Do you know who it is?" Melia quickly asked after confirming the Green Family Patriarch safety.

"We don’t know much." The Green Family Patriarch shook his head. "You don’t have to worry about this. It’s not Nelia."

This was the most he could tell them without exposing the truth.

Because after some conversation together, they all decided that they had to keep this matter a secret.

A child or teenager with such high potential...

It was unlikely to be true.

But what if?

There were also many concealment spells that could affect one’s appearance.

The only thing that the Green Family Patriarch could be sure of was that the person who did it was not Nelia. Because Nelia didn’t have good attainment in formation nor did she have any spells that could hide her appearance to the point that the White Family couldn’t see it.

"I know it couldn’t be her." Melia shook her head. "But would others believe it?"

As her sister, Melia knew Nelia very well and was naturally aware of Nelia’s ability.

If they said that Nelia was very talented, Melia would say that it was true. But if they said that Nelia could advance to rank 7... then Melia would be skeptical.

The two of them were only rank 5 and even if Melia is weaker than Nelia, it was not that much. She could still gauge her sister’s strength to a certain degree.

"I don’t know." The Green Family Patriarch shook his head and looked at the three teenagers not far from him. He sighed. "You should go back and rest. There’s no need to wait here any longer."

The three of them looked at each other and then nodded.

"Yes!"

They knew from the Green Family Patriarch’s posture that they wouldn’t be able to know anything more. But this information given to them alone was already more than enough.

As the teenagers left, the Green Family Patriarch sighed. "It will be quite chaotic in the next few days. I hope you’re prepared for this."

Melia trembled when she heard her husband’s words and nodded. "I know."

Everyone they suspected would be put into a list and whoever was in this list would have to face some monitoring. The city would not allow them to move freely anymore.

This wouldn’t be so easy...

...

After coming out, Nathan sighed deeply.

"They didn’t want us to participate. Damn brother..." Nathan cursed in a low voice. He hoped that his older brother could trust him more and let him in for some matters. But the Green Family Patriarch was very strict in many matters.

It was impossible for him to tell Nathan about various matters.

"He should have his own reasons, Nathan." Nisa was also worried but she tried her best to control her emotions.

"I know, but like... If I know nothing, how can I help? Ahh..." Nathan ruffled his hair in annoyance as he continued to walk towards his residence.

Having seen those annoying elders, Nathan knew very well that these people were not very good. At least, some of them were not good and might even care about their profit more than the entire city as a whole.

And if they were to target Nelia, it would be really bad.

Because Nelia’s personality was really hard and she was also very stubborn.

Meeting those equally stubborn elders, what awaited them would be nothing more than a head on clash that might result in direct battle.

Nathan didn’t want to see this.

"The Green Family and the Red Family will not start a conflict easily," Silas said slowly. "I’m sure the Fourth Head also know about this."

"He knows but would he care about it?" Nathan sneered. "He can even put his disciples in danger and nearly killing him, what else can’t he..."

"Nathan!"

Nisa’s voice was stern and she looked at Nathan solemnly. Even though Nisa came from commoner background, being with her friends over the years had allowed her to know more things and naturally understood some secrets.

One of them was the fact that the Fourth Head of the Wansu City might not be as good as he showed on the surface.

The things he did during the war had chilled many people.

Some people said that he was incapable of arranging any strategy and should just go back and retire quickly. But they didn’t dare to say this out loud.

Why?

Politics.

The power was all in the Fourth Head of the Wansu City’s hand and it was not easy to take it away from him. There were many people who might not be willing to follow him now but they didn’t want to let go of the power that was in their hands.

So they would turn a blind eyes while cursing the Fourth Head of the Wansu City in secret.
