CHAPTER 841 THE SAINTESS RECRUITS A SON-IN-LAW
Caught off guard, Alby fell to the ground in a heap, rolling on the ground more than ten times before
stopping.
His trousers were hooked and bloody from the potholed ground.
Maxwell also fell down and took a tumble.
His gaze was shocked as he looked at Alby who had fallen to the ground, his heart panicked to the
core.
How did Alby fall?
After a closer look did Maxwell see what was going on.
It was his knee, which had been penetrated by something unknown and was bleeding profusely.
Alby used one leg to support his torso to stand up.
The air appeared to break sharply and something shot through.
The object ran through Alby's right arm.
Blood splattered, interspersed with the sound of breaking bones.
"Ah ......"
This time, Alby finally couldn't help but wail out.
Clutching his right hand, he collapsed, blood flowing out like water, and a pool of blood soon formed on
the ground.
Maxwell fixed his eyes on it and finally saw what it was.
Stones.
Stones are found everywhere on the ground.
At the moment, it has turned into a weapon sharp enough to take a life!
"As I said, you can't escape."
The cold voice of Leo came to his ears.
With his heart tightening, Maxwell subconsciously turned around, only to see Leo catching up again,
playing with stones of various sizes in his hands.
"Leo ......"
Maxwell's body trembled and his expression was shocked to the core.
The next moment, a monstrous hatred surfaced on his face and he looked at Leo and roared, "Where
is my father? Did you kill him?"
"Your father?"
Leo had a surprised look on his face, then smiled lightly, "Yes, I killed him."
At once, Maxwell's face could turn as pale as paper, and his eyes were even dull.
"Don't believe him!"
Lying on the ground, Alby yelled and said to Maxwell, "He must have used some method to escape
Master's tracking, and his aim, since the beginning, has been you, not to fight Master."
Maxwell came to a sudden realization, then looked at Leo with sinister eyes and said angrily, "Leo, if
you dare to kill me, my father will not spare you!"
In response, Leo only sneered, "Your father? Your father may not be a match for me."
"And you're allowed to strike at me and not allow me to kill you? What kind of reasoning is that?"
With a cold laugh, Leo dropped these stones and passed towards Maxwell with great strides.
His footsteps sounded low, as if he stepped on the sound of death, making Maxwell fearful.
"No, Alby, save me ......"
Maxwell was so frightened that he rolled and crawled, trying to escape.
"......"
Alby didn't say a word, clearly one of his feet was broken, but he still stood up by his will and blocked
Leo's way.
Leo stopped in his tracks, his eyes indifferent, "Get out of the way, my target tonight is him alone."
Alby's pale face, however, emerged with a smile as he said to Leo, "He is my lord, I'm sorry I can't."
The phrase "He is my lord" plunged Leo into silence for a moment.
After a long time, he looked at Alby with something else in his eyes.
The fact that he is clearly on a different side of the fence still does not stop Leo from admiring him.
"You are an admirable and faithful servant."
Leo looked at Alby and said softly, "Unfortunately, you have followed the wrong master."
Alby grinned, "I don't think so. I was born in the Spencer family, grew up in the Spencer’s, and will die
in the Spencer’s, I only have one wish that after I die, please bury my bones in the dust of the
mountain, and sprinkle my ashes all over the mountains."
Leo was silent for three seconds and promised, "If one day I go to the Spencer imperial family, I will
help you."
Alby smiled, as a slave he had done his duty and would die without regret.
He gasped heavily and his right arm, his left knee, was bleeding profusely from the stones that had
penetrated it.
Standing up is all down to a stubborn force of will and the determination that must protect his master.
Leo slowly reached out his hand, then grabbed his neck and gave it a gentle twist.
Click.
With a crisp sound, Alby was dead.
After doing that, Leo closed Alby's eyes that had not been closed, before continuing on his journey to
hunt down and kill Maxwell.
By now Maxwell had already run out a long way.
Maxwell, a martial artist himself, was just so frightened by Leo that he forgot he knew martial arts.
When he reacted to why he was running, he immediately began to dodge and run.
Although he knew that Alby was in grave danger, he could not help but turn around and turn back.
He turned even paler at the sight of Alby, who lay motionless on the ground.
Leo was walking towards him step by step, he was clearly walking and putting in small steps, but
Maxwell just felt that the distance between them was getting closer and closer and closer. Finally, Leo
was already neck and neck with him.
"Hell!"
With terrified eyes, Maxwell ran even harder, when he was suddenly pulled straight back.
Maxwell was dropped and when he turned around, Leo was walking towards him with an indifferent
look on his face.
"This time, no one can save you."
Leo suddenly opened his mouth and came in front of Maxwell, raising his foot with the intention of
stepping on Maxwell.
"No, Leo, you can't kill me, my mother won't let you go!"
Maxwell was scared to the core and backed up as hard as he could, shouting loudly.
His terrified voice, which resonated throughout the Grand Canal, received no half-hearted response.
Maxwell was desperate.
Leo, however, narrowed his eyes slightly, stopped his foot from stepping on it and asked, "Your
mother?"
At the wedding banquet, he had learned that the reason why Maxwell's father, Jordan, had broken
through from the royal family to the imperial family was because of Maxwell's mother.
There is no doubt that this is a figure with terrifying energy, a queen-like figure, and even a pivotal
position in the entire Pompeii imperial family.
But it is a bit of a joke that this would frighten Leo.
It is still possible to learn about it and prevent it from happening.
Under the threat of death, Maxwell was all-knowing and all-talking, telling all about his mother's origins.
"My mother is the Third Saintess of the Spencer Imperial Clan, and has a pivotal position in the entire
Imperial Clan, so you cannot kill me. However, the more powerful the position, the more fierce the
rivalry between each other became, and under the scheming battle of wits of several great saintesses,
my mother lost the battle and fell victim to the imperial clan in exchange for benefits."
"But my mother didn't give up and chose to marry herself off in another special way."
"What way?"
Leo's mind twitched, only to feel that this path was so familiar.
Words slowly spat out of Maxwell's mouth, causing Leo's face to change slightly.
"Recruiting a husband."
"Recruiting a husband?!"
On hearing this, Leo was shocked.
The situation in the front is the same as Ariella's, but Ariella failed.
It has to do with the size of the power, and there is no comparison between the Lawson family and the
Spencer imperial family.
Maxwell's mother, who is the Third Saintess of the Spencer Imperial Clan, held a husband recruitment,
and naturally many people came to attend.
"That time my mother recruited a husband, apart from the imperial family, many of the royal families of
S City were also alarmed, and in the end, my mother chose my father."
Maxwell said, "But my mother gave him a very harsh condition: his attainment in martial arts must
surpass that of her personal guards before he could officially enter the Pompeii Imperial Clan,
otherwise, he would never be allowed to set foot in the Imperial Clan!"
Hearing this, Leo's face changed slightly.
Maxwell's mother was indeed a ruthless character.
She planned to recruit a husband, but set such harsh conditions.
If it were an ordinary person, it is likely that they would never have set foot in the imperial clan. holds © this.
Suddenly, as if remembering something, Leo asked, "Your mother's guard is ----"
Maxwell looked at Alby's corpse and said, "Alby."
"......"
The realization dawned on Leo.
Although Alby's strength was not as good as his, the difference between the two was not really that big.
But at their level of power, the gap was huge.
So, Leo can still crush him.
However, this was clearly an impossible task for Jordan.
"That's what my mother thought at the time, but it was more than she expected."
Maxwell said, "My father, in just a few years, completed his transcendence of Alby and impressed my
mother enough to acknowledge him as a husband."
"In later years, thanks to my father, my mother also gradually gained a foothold as one of the Third
Staitess, and then, later on, there was me."
Leo guessed that the affair between Jordan and Ariella's mother, Esther, would have happened during
those years before Jordan set foot in the Spencer imperial clan.
"However, according to my mother's recollection, the most suitable husband to recruit at that time was
not my father, but someone else."
Maxwell said.
"Oh? Who?"
Leo was full of surprise, and for a moment, his curiosity arose, and he faded his killing intent to kill
Maxwell.
Maxwell slowly uttered a name that made Leo's eyelids jump fast.
"Karl."
Leo's face changed slightly, "It's him?"
He mentally estimated the timeline; when the Third Staitess of the Spencer Clan were recruiting a
husband, Lydia, Ariella, and even he, had not yet been born.
In other words, at that time, Karl was already involved with the Pompeii imperial family?
Leo guessed that the ideal wife in Karl's mind at that time was not Aurora, the number one beauty of S
City, but the Third Staitess of the Spencer Imperial Clan.
It was only when the recruitment failed that he approached Aurora.
Thinking of this, Leo suddenly thought of a point, what made his mother-in-law to become the number
one beauty of S City?
It is unlikely that such a title would come out of nowhere.
If it was only within the nine royal families, Aurora could not have been admired by the entire city.
In his mind, a bold guess slowly emerged.
The world, perhaps, is far bigger than he could ever imagine.
