CHAPTER 840 LIKE A SHADOW
S City Grand Canal was known as the moat of S City.
It was like a true dragon, it meanders for thousands of miles, and is known to the local people as the
'mother river' that nourishes the waters of the area.
However, at this moment and around the river, two figures are frantically fleeing.
Round-toed cloth shoes, like flying on grass, ripple faintly on the water with each light tiptoe.
Maxwell felt like he had been drawn into a martial arts world.
It's a move he's familiar with. He used to see it in TV shows, flying on grass.
He never thought that in reality, someone would actually lead him to use this trick.
Maxwell also practiced martial arts, just not as profoundly as Alby.
Such a heavy weight can actually support the rapid flight on the water, Maxwell knows very well in his
heart that, without years of hard work, there is no such strength.
Alby had been running with him for almost ten minutes, so long and so fast, he should be safe, right?
With this in mind, Maxwell could not help but speak up, "Alby, I think that's enough, shall we take a
break?"
Alby didn't say anything, just gave a wary glance around.
It is late at night and there is no sign of a figure, even the willows on the shore are still.
Alby nodded, then led Maxwell to the shore and stopped.
As soon as his feet touched the ground, Alby was out of breath.
He is, after all, old and not very strong with one along.
However, he gave a wary glance around to make sure that Leo would not catch up with him, and then
he was relieved.
Thinking of Leo again, Alby could not help but feel palpitations in his heart.
That blow from Leo broke his arm skeleton directly, and it still hurts vaguely to now.
This youth, who did not even look thirty years old, was actually so strong.
Even in Pompeii Imperial Family, it is a rarity!
Such geniuses, however, are not unknown throughout history, but most of them have been wiped out
and died young.
He believes this one will be no exception.
Thinking of this, Alby's tightly gripped heart relaxed.
Turning back to Maxwell: "Rest for a day in S City, wait until Master returns, tomorrow we can leave for
the mountains. The journey will take about three days, be prepared for hardship."
"Yes, Alby."
Maxwell's eyes were full of excitement.
He visited the mountain once as a child and is still impressed by it.
That's a new world.
And, the people inside are very powerful.
History had documentation of the Pompeii imperial family.
"There was a small opening in the mountain, as if there were light. Abandoned the boat and entered
through the opening. At first it was very narrow, only a person was allowed enter at once. When he
walked a few dozen steps further, it became broad."
It was the fisherman who inadvertently found the entrance to the Pompeii imperial family.
Of course, when the fisherman came out afterwards, he could never find the entrance to the Pompeii
imperial family again.
Here it is clear enough that the Pompeii imperial family and the outside world are in a state of isolation.
And, his mother is inside.
He and his mother were away a lot, but she was really good to him and Maxwell missed her a lot.
Just as the heart was longing for more, the leaves suddenly rustled around them.
Alby instantly turned his head violently to look around.
"Meow."
A black wildcat, jumping from a tree, with green eyes, looked at them and darted away.
"......"
Maxwell broke out in cold sweat, then forced a smile and said, "Alby, are you being too sensitive? It's
just a cat."
"Is that so? ......"
Alby's tense nerves did not relax, and his eyes remained deep.
The eyes that looked towards the Siku Grand Canal also took on an extra hint of gravity.
Just now, was it really him being too nervous?
That blow from Leo had affected him so much that if it had been any more dangerous, his whole arm
would have been broken.
To be targeted by such a powerful man is simply more terrifying than a fierce beast.
After the shock, Maxwell was however relieved and said with a smile, "Alby, have you forgotten that
when we left, my father had already made a move on that brat."
"No matter how powerful he is, he can't be a match for my father!"
As he said this, Maxwell spoke with a deep confidence in his tone.
A reassuring smile also surfaced on Alby's face, "That's true."
He watched the strength of Jordan grow up.
Starting out inferior to him, Jordan slowly equalled him and finally surpassed him.
He took Maxwell with him, and Jordan stopped Leo, so it was impossible for Leo to catch up with him.
Alby took a step forward, yet it was also this step that caused his body to stiffen in an instant.
Pupils widened, and above his forehead, beans of cold sweat ran down.
The shirt on his back was already wet with cold sweat.
"Where do you want to escape to?"
The faint voice, like a life-threatening chain, fell into Alby and Maxwell's ears, causing their bodies to
tremble and their entire eyes to instantly widen.
"......"
Maxwell thought he was hallucinating and looked up trembling.
All they could see was a dark figure sitting on a tree trunk above their heads, looking at them with a
smile.
He had collected his aura, as if he had become one with the darkness around him, and if he had not
made a sound, his presence would not have been felt at all.
"Ah ----"
The moment the four eyes met, Maxwell screamed in fright and his whole body fell to the ground with a
poof.
There was even a fishy yellow liquid spilling out between the crotch of his trousers.
He pissed on the spot!
"Go!"
Alby instantly clenched his teeth, grabbed Maxwell and fled towards the distance.
As he watched them leave, Leo had a faint smile on his face.
"Escape? Where can you escape to?"
As soon as the words left his mouth, Leo disappeared into the trunk of the tree.
Alby led Maxwell to flee frantically, the first time he had ever fled so frantically in all his years of life.
A fear that originated from the depths of his soul sent shivers down his spine.
He was really scared.
Earlier they were confident that Leo would not catch up, but they did not expect him to come after them
in the next second.
It was almost like he was a ghost!
Maxwell was even more directly scared and pissed, his face as pale as paper. Content property of NôvelDra/ma.Org.
Since Leo was here, it meant his father had been defeated.
His face paled even more at the thought.
His father had always been invincible as a god of war in his eyes and had never been defeated.
How could he be defeated?
Maxwell was scared as he looked into the darkness of the night and really experienced the feeling of
death.
Suddenly, Alby fell to the ground in a flash.
