Chapter 438: Chapter 437

Chapter 437

After walking for a while, they arrived at the second largest pagoda in the clan . Arthur found it weird since the architecture used is varied and unfit with the few sky-high pagodas at the center of the clan .

Lucy’s uncle, Benson, kept talking about the prosperity of the clan and giving his niece a small tour of their territory . Literally, he was the epitome of arrogance, he talked as if he owned all of that yet he was only a Disciplinary Elder . Yes, he was in charge of punishing the crimes of the evildoers but he doesn’t have as much authority as a real elder .

Nonetheless, Benson Album Larva kept boasting about the White Specter Clan while continuously saying that ’Lucy is lucky to be part of the clan’ .

The niece in question became disgusted and hated this ’uncle’ of hers even more . He seemed childish and haughty, contrary to what a loving uncle should be . Although it’s the first time they met, all he did was talk, talk, and talk... not even once did he ask how she was doing until now .

Furthermore, Hobson and Angelina remained silent but their frowning faces couldn’t be hidden . From the looks of it, they weren’t on the same side as Benson .

The pagoda not only was over 700 meters in height but also had a wide interior, able to fit hundreds of people . As one would expect, this wasn’t a place anyone could enter hence the lack of any people . There were only a few servants tasked to clean and arrange stuff .

Benson directly guided them toward the highest floor, where Lucy’s father is . As said previously, a small ’banquet’ was prepared for the return of his ’precious’ daughter . However, it was better to call it a small feast as there was no one but a middle-aged man on that floor .

He stood on a chair that resembled a throne and looked down at his new guests . His gaze instantly locked into Lucy, whose appearance is very similar to her sister and mother .

A cold glint flashed across his eyes as he cracked a smile and got up from his, ready to warmly welcome his daughter, who has been missing for a long time .

’Overgod?’

’Yes but his cultivation is unstable, he must have broken through not too long ago . His foundation is shaky too... a person like that, although an Overgod, can be killed with Makaze . One attack, swift and silent...’-Claud

’We’ll have to wait and see...’

The middle-aged man walked toward the guests and was about to hug his daughter only to halt his steps three meters away from her . The blade was on her waist was releasing an ominous aura while menacingly growling at him, clearly making think twice before approaching Lucy .

Even the close Angelina and her uncle had to step back, only Hobson was able to resist the dark blade’s aura .

"Miss Eva is still not used to all of this . Give her some time . "

The butler butted in and uttered those words to calm the situation . The middle-aged man, named Thordan, warily looked at the silver-haired woman before him then forced a laugh .

"No worries no worries . We have ample time to spend together from now on . "

Thordan beckoned them to the table then sat at the main chair, curiously glancing at Lucy then Angelina, who never paid him any heed .

"Eva, don’t you remember m-"

Before her father could finish, Lucy cut him off and coldly said:

"I’m not Eva, my name is Lucy . Lucy MoonStar . "

Startled by her very disrespectful attitude ad impolite tone, Thordan frowned and said

"MoonStar?"

To explain the situation, Hobson stated:

"She’s married to someone hence she got his surname . "

The kind attitude Thordan just had seemed to have vanished into thin air as he banged his fist on the table while speaking with a slightly loud and irritated tone

"What nonsense is this? How can she marry without the approval of her parents?"

The man closed his eyes for a second before sighing and adding:

"That marriage is null and void!"

Unfortunately, Lucy wasn’t just going to listen to his words, she harrumphed and retorted

"And who are you to tell me who to marry? I don’t need or want to hear your opinion . I’m Lucy MoonStar and there’s nothing you can do or say to change that . "

Veins started popping from Thordan’s reddened face . Even Angelina, who rarely interacts with her father and is stubborn and unruly, never spoke to him like that, moreso in front of Benson and Hobson .

"Is that how you speak to your father!?"

"You are not my father . "

The more he listened to her and saw her attitude, the angrier Thordan became . He got up from his seat and shouted:

"Unfilial child! I was happy to see you after such a long time yet you’re treating me, your father, like this?"

Lucy glared at him with dagger-eyes and retorted:

"Call yourself my father one more time and see what happens?"

Even Hobson, Angelina, and Benson were shocked by Lucy’s attitude . Although he wasn’t that respected in the clan, Thordan was still the Matriarch’s husband so no one dares to talk him like that, much less threaten him . It’s true that they always talk bad about him but none is brave enough to voice their opinions when he’s present .

With a flushed face, Thordan was hyperventilating, his body shaking and his fists clenched . He glared back at her and said

"I’m your fa-"

Before he could even finish, Lucy disappeared from her seat . With a soft white saber in her hand, she appeared in front of him, ready to stab his neck with Twilight’s Vow .

For someone who only relied on rare medicines and pills to increase his cultivation, Thordan is considered a weakling and has close to no battle experience .

He only realized what was happening when the saber was about to penetrate his throat . Fortunately, Angelina kind of grasped her little sister’s character so she was able to predict this .

Just when the saber was about to kill Thordan, a soft hand grasped Lucy’s wrist, barely managing to stop it . Angelina had to activate her Physique and use all of her Strength, coupled with Nether Energy, just to stop Lucy’s advancing hand .

The second she bought was enough for Hobson to restrain Lucy and push her away from her father, who only snapped out of his shock after the white saber disappeared from his sight .

Honestly, he never expected his daughter to be this dangerous . He already sensed her cultivation yet the speed she just displayed was out of the norm .

Benson, who was watching these events unfold, was equally speechless . Parts of his clothes became frozen by the thick amount of Yin emanating from Lucy .

Although she was restrained, her Physique started affecting her surroundings, freezing the table, food, and even the chairs .

"You’re crazy! You actually dare to attack me?!"

Thordan walked toward the restrained Lucy’s, who’s glare is enough to cause him to feel chills down his spine . He locked his eyes onto her and raised his hand, clearly about to hit her .

It was at this moment that Angelina interfered, again, and stopped her father . She held his raised his hand while shaking her hand and saying

"She’s still uncomfortable in this environment . "

Angelina’s tone wasn’t of a pleading daughter, she was actually warning him and telling him to think twice before hitting her . Unlike Thordan, Lucy’s mother greatly cares about her children and never once raised a hand against Angelina . In fact, the Matriarch and Thordan are still married but haven’t talked for a long time .

Their relationship worsened ever since the father slapped Angelina that one time when she refused to marry a young man from another sect . He didn’t care about her opinion and wanted to use her as a tool to boost his influence and gain benefits, unfortunately, the Matriarch was so enraged by his actions that she almost killed him . Were it not for Angelina’s pleading, he would have died that day .

In the end, Thordan put down his hand and angrily stormed out of the room . Hobson removed the restraints, setting Lucy free though she didn’t move her spot .

She wasn’t shocked but was talking with Arthur, who was about to leave her about and really murder her father . No matter who it was, he won’t let them touch his wife, much less hit her!

He was really about go all out and obliterate the whole pagoda even at the cost of his life . Fortunately, Lucy convinced him to stay put no matter what happens lest he gets discovered and their plan fails .

’You have to promise me to not reveal yourself . ’

’*sigh* Alright, I won’t . ’

’No! You have to promise!’

After a short silence, Arthur said

’... I promise . ’

...

"I’ll guide you to your room . I’m sure you’ll like it . "

Angelina guided her sister to the room that was prepared for her . Hobson went to meet the Matriarch and Benson followed the leaving Thordan .

As her sister said, the room was inside the largest Pagoda in the sect . The room was on the 59th floor and was not only luxurious but very large too . The room lacked nothing, whether it’s the thick and pure amount of Nether Energy, the necessary tools to cultivate or the special food that facilitate the circulation of energy inside the Meridians .

"For now, please don’t leave your room . "

With a worried look, Angelina said that only to hear a sneer come out of Lucy’s mouth .

"Room? Isn’t this a prison?"

Angelina could only bite her lips and leave the room . For now, Lucy has to be locked here until she meets the Matriarch .
