Chapter 447: Evil Son (Six Thousand)

The Grand Duke is the highest title under the royal family and the pinnacle of the nobility.

There are three Grand Dukes in Granville, but only one in the Theocracy of Spang, and that is Grand Duke Copperfield. The small number of Grand Dukes makes the title of Grand Duke of the Copperfield family particularly valuable.

Look at the mansion in front of Jacobs and Zoe. It is called the Grand Duke's Palace, but in fact it is a castle and an extremely huge manor. The area may be slightly smaller than the royal palace, but the luxury is even greater.

Pavilions, towers, carved railings and painted buildings! It is said that there is even an inner lake in the Grand Duke's Palace, which is the largest lake in the King's City of Spang.

It is said that any stone or floor tile dug out from the Grand Duke's Palace can be sold at a staggering price... After all, the floor tiles in the Grand Duke's Palace are all carved from soft and delicate jade. This alone shows how extravagant the Grand Duke's Palace is.

But even such a luxurious Grand Duke's Mansion could not afford the life of a bastard...

Jacobs and Zoe looked up and glanced at the plaque in front of the Grand Duke's Palace: Copperfield.

These four characters are vigorous and powerful.

The gilded text shines brightly.

It is said that these four words were written by the founding king of the Spang Theocracy and have a history of 8,000 years.

In addition, the fact that it was inscribed by the founding king himself would definitely attract a lot of attention if it were put on the antique market. This plaque is hung above the gate tower without any special protection measures, but in the past eight thousand years, no thief dared to lay his hands on it... Maybe there were some before, but they were all dead.

Jacobs and Zoe looked quietly at the plaque above the door.

It took a few seconds before he came to his senses.

Their faces turned pale, on the one hand, because of the bloody and horrifying scene they had seen before, and on the other hand, because of the four big words "Copperfield" on the plaque on the door.

These four large gold-plated characters seem to contain some kind of mysterious energy. Every time I see them, I feel an indescribable depression and fear.

The two of them moved their throats, swallowed, and looked at each other, seeing the fear in each other's eyes.

The two men wanted to turn around and leave, but they also knew that if something really happened to O'Neill, then as companions who acted with O'Neill today, they would definitely be implicated by the wrath of the Copperfield family.

Thinking of this, the two of them no longer hesitated. They took a deep breath, mustered up all their courage, and walked towards the door.

It was noon now. The bright sunlight brought a scorching temperature, making people feel lazy in the sun. The doorman of the Copperfield family was also made drowsy by the sun. He leaned against the doorpost with his head nodding.

"Mr. Kane, wake up, something big has happened..."

Although he was just a doorman, he was the doorman of the Copperfield family. Although Jacobs and Zoe were young masters of aristocratic families, they did not dare to be negligent in the slightest. They shook the doorman's shoulders and kept calling him.

Menzi's head swayed from side to side, and he opened his eyes dazedly: "Oh, it turned out to be Jacobs and Master Zoe... I might have been a little confused in my sleep, and I heard you two talking about something big?"

"If I remember correctly, you and Master Ernil went out together to tease a decent girl today... Ahem, I mean, you went shopping together, didn't you? What could have happened? Could it be that you teased a princess?"

The gatekeeper named Kane didn't think anything serious could happen. This was the royal city of the Spang Theocracy, and the Copperfield family was the local tyrant... no, it was the local dragon.

Apart from molesting the princess, a decent girl, Kane didn't think anything serious would happen. As for the others, even the eldest daughter of the Duke's family, he could easily deal with them with the identity of Master O'Neill.

Jacobs and Zoe were becoming increasingly anxious; they had no time to joke with Kane.

Onil is still getting beaten over there.

Although they didn't know who the young man and the elf were, they at least knew that the man was extremely powerful and didn't care at all about Onir's identity as the eldest son and heir of the Copperfield family.

If O'Neill was just beaten, then everything would be fine. But if something really happened to him, or if he suffered some irreversible injuries, the two of them would be in trouble too.

Jacobs's face, which was as handsome as a woman's, turned red due to anxiety. "Mr. Kane, I don't have time to joke with you. Master O'Neill was beaten up."

"What?"

Kane, the doorman who was originally a little dazed and sleepy, suddenly widened his eyes after hearing these words.

Buzz.

At that moment, Jacobs and Zoe only felt a violent impact, like a strong wind, spreading directly from Kane and sweeping around.

The overwhelming pressure made Jacobs and Zoe step back, and their chests seemed to be hit hard by a huge rock. They felt a dull pain, breathing became a little difficult, and their faces were as pale as paper.

For a moment, both of them were shocked.

Who would have thought that this gatekeeper who usually looked so lazy that people wondered why the Copperfield family hadn't fired this old man could actually release such an exaggerated pressure. At that moment, Mr. Kane outside the door didn't look old or lazy at all. His hair and beard were all standing up, his eyes were like copper bells, and he was like a mad lion. There was a brutal aura all over his body. It was worthy of the Copperfield family. Even a gatekeeper had such an exaggerated strength. This aura was probably another legendary master.

"What did you say? Master O'Neill was beaten up?" Kane roared with suppressed anger, resounding from his throat like a huge bell: "Who is so bold? Where?"

Kane was furious.

Although he was just a gatekeeper and did not have the blood of the Copperfield family, he had already regarded himself as a member of the Copperfield family. To attack the eldest son of the Copperfield family was to slap the Copperfield family in the face. How could they tolerate this?

Under Kane's overwhelming aura, Jacobs and Zoe couldn't even stand steadily. Their bodies were shaky. They fought hard against the fear in their hearts and answered hoarsely, "At... at the intersection of North Gate Street..."

Buzz! Jacobs's voice had just fallen when Kane in front of him disappeared.

It was like a raging gale, creating an exaggerated tornado between heaven and earth.

Suddenly, the terrible pressure was gone, and Copperfield and Zoe felt their bodies suddenly relax. Unable to bear it any longer, they stepped back and sat down on the ground.

They were like drowning people who had just emerged from the ocean, breathing greedily.

When they looked at each other, they could see each other's extremely pale face and wet clothes.

It's so scary.

The old man's aura was so terrifying that they thought they were facing not a person, but a... dragon.

They kept thinking in their minds whether they had offended this old man in any way. It seemed that they had spoken a little loudly before, and they didn't know if this old man would mind.

They are truly the Copperfield family; even a security guard can be so terrifying.

They were gasping for breath for nearly half a minute, and finally their mood calmed down a little. Then, Jacobs suddenly remembered something, and beads of sweat rolled down his pale face.

He believed that the security guard was definitely a legendary master, and his strength was probably even stronger than O'Neill.

but……

That young man was able to pin O'Neill to the ground and hammer him with just one move.

That strength is definitely several stars higher than Onir's.

Is it possible that the security guard went there just to deliver food?

If two legendary masters were killed at once, even if the Copperfield family was wealthy and powerful, it would definitely be a heavy loss. This behemoth would certainly be furious, and both himself and Zoe would definitely be implicated.

Thinking of this, Jacobs had no time to rest any longer. He jumped up from the ground and rushed into the Grand Duke's palace without caring about whether it was an offense or not.

To be honest, this is indeed a very rude behavior for the upper-class aristocrats.

However, Jacobs was also a frequent visitor to the Copperfield family, and had a very good relationship with several young masters in the family. He was also the eldest son of the Marquis, and was considered to have a high status.

So, although it was impolite, the servants of the Copperfield family did not make things too difficult for Jacobs, and even took Jacobs to meet the current head of the family, Balke.

Balk Copperfield, the nominal head of the family.

The reason why it is nominal is that although Balke is currently handling all the big and small matters of the family, his father, the old head of the family is still alive, and the title of Grand Duke still belongs to his father and has not yet been passed on to him.

Moreover, although the old patriarch no longer manages family affairs and spends most of his time in seclusion practicing, if the old patriarch really has any orders, they will definitely be more useful than him, the current patriarch.

The so-called head of the family is actually more like the steward of this huge force.

Balk is already over fifty years old, but it is obvious that he has made great achievements in spiritual practice. He looks no more than thirty years old, with a tall and straight figure, sparkling eyes, and a square face that is heroic and powerful. When he was young, he was a national star in the Spang Theocracy. His popularity was no less than that of Ashiburn in the past, and even more crazy.

With such appearance and identity, it's no wonder that he is so charming and suave.

However, as he grows older and his realm improves, Balke has become much more stable now.

At this moment, Balk was sitting in the main hall, listening to Jacobs telling everything that had happened before. When he heard that Onir saw a beautiful elf and wanted to snatch her home, Balk's expression did not change at all. This kind of thing was too normal for nobles of their level. It was not even a trivial matter. He had done a lot of such things when he was young.

After all, our ancestors fought hard to win the title of Grand Duke, so as descendants, shouldn’t we be a little more arrogant?

When he heard that O'Neill was knocked down by the opponent and hammered to the ground, Balke's face finally changed.

This time, it seemed that his son had hit a wall. The opponent was very strong, and it was no wonder that he would not give face to the Copperfield family. After all, masters of this level cared more about their dignity.

After hearing that Kane actually chased after him alone, Balke's face became extremely gloomy.

The Copperfield family is flourishing.

After thousands of years of inheritance, the number of family members is not just thousands, but probably tens of thousands.

If we count even those more distantly related branches, the number will be even more exaggerated.

Being able to stand out from so many people and become the head of a family, he must be the best choice in terms of both strength and character.

Hearing this, he keenly realized that the situation was troublesome.

Although, O'Neill has just entered the legendary realm, his strength is stronger than the average legendary level.

Even though they are all his sons, from Balke's point of view, Onir is not actually the best heir to the family head. Although his talent in cultivation is the best among his many sons, he is... too stupid and not smart enough. Such a person cannot be in charge of a behemoth like the Copperfield family.

Relatively speaking, although Melville's talent in cultivation is slightly inferior to Balke's, he is more intelligent and more experienced in handling various matters.

In order to prevent Balk's realm from rising too quickly and suppressing Melville, he chose a special secret method for his son Banil, called Bone Refining and Body Strengthening. This is a secret technique that uses magic power to strengthen the body. Progress is extremely slow in the early stages, but once the practice is successful, one can become a god with the body, and one's fists can break mountains and rocks, and one's feet can split the earth and walk on the sea.

Moreover, during the entire training process, the Copperfield family did not provide O'Neill with even a bottle of magic potion. Apart from providing the secret technique of bone refining and body strengthening, they did not provide any other help.

It can be said without exaggeration that O'Neill's strength was truly gained by his own hard work, step by step. Although his realm improvement was slow, it was not at all exaggerated.

That’s not all. Half a year ago, after Ernel successfully entered the legendary realm, the power of his secret bone-refining and body-strengthening techniques gradually began to show.

His destructive power is so great that even two-star or three-star cultivators, let alone those who have just entered the legendary realm, may not be able to gain much advantage in front of him.

And the opponent was able to knock down such a powerful O'Neill with just one move. His strength was at least at the legendary six-star level.

Although Kane is quite strong, he is only at the legendary four-star level. If he really faces that young man, he probably won't have much chance of winning.

If the other party gives the Copperfield family face, then perhaps everything will be fine. If not... With Kane's hot temper, the two sides are bound to have a fierce conflict. By then, I'm afraid...

When he thought of this, Balke's face suddenly changed and he stood up from the chair.

There is no mistake in the poem, post, content, and read the book on 6, 9, and bar!

He knew that things had become somewhat tricky this time.

Originally, he was only planning to arrange a few more masters to help. The Copperfield family was powerful enough that it would not be a problem to pull out one or two more legendary masters. But now it seems that only a legendary eight-star super master like himself can personally show up to control the situation.

It’s a pity that my father had already been in seclusion for a year, trying to break through the barrier between the realm of legend and destruction. Otherwise, if my father had taken action personally, he would have been able to suppress everything easily.

Balke was about to go out himself, but when he passed by Jacobs, he suddenly stopped.

"Jacobs, do you know who that young man is, where he came from, and what his name is?"

Jacobs was stunned for a moment, then searched his memory vigorously: "Erniel seemed to have called that man's name, it seemed to be... Ron?"

Ron?

Ron?

Ron!

After a moment of silence, Balk finally reacted.

Then, his body suddenly trembled, and his expression became extremely depressed: "It's that evil boy..."

"Damn it! He actually has the nerve to return to the Spang Theocracy."

"Oh no, Kane is in danger!"

Balk Copperfield's expression changed several times in a short period of time, and his body flew out with a whoosh. He knew that he couldn't wait any longer. If he waited any longer, Kane would be dead.

…

Royal City, North Gate Street.

More and more people are gathering here.

No matter what era or world, there will never be a shortage of spectators.

Originally there weren't too many people here, but when people saw some people gathering here and not leaving, this place seemed to have a strong gravitational force, and more and more people gathered nearby. In a short time, the North Gate Street entrance was already crowded with people.

Everyone looked towards the center of the circle, and when they saw O'Neill's current appearance, they couldn't help but gasp, so much so that the temperature in this area rose a lot.

Good job.

That man must be Ernie, the eldest son of the Copperfield family.

If it weren't for his iconic curly-haired baboon-like fur, this guy would be almost unrecognizable.

But isn’t this a bit too tragic?

At this moment, Oniel looked so miserable that his left leg was broken alive. The whole leg was separated from the knee... Yes, it was completely broken. There was originally a layer of skin connecting it, but it might be too painful. Oniel's body was wriggling on the ground like a maggot, and as he moved, even that layer of skin was broken.

All five fingers of his right hand were drooping, and it was obvious that all the finger bones had been broken.

His left arm was twisted into a pretzel shape, and the bones inside were probably shattered into pieces.

Although the injuries were not fatal, even for a legendary master, the outcome would not be good if he suffered such injuries. Even the fingers and arms could be restored, but the broken leg would never grow back.

He was abandoned.

Compared with the physical pain, the mental blow was even more difficult for O'Neill to accept.

He never thought that he would have no ability to fight back in front of this man. When Ron attacked him before, he tried to resist. He tried his best to mobilize the magic power in his body, but when Ron stepped directly on his face, the magic power that he had mobilized with great difficulty was like glass hit by a hammer, and it was crushed into slag in an instant.

Why did he become so powerful? Why did he practice so hard for so many years, but now he was like an ant in front of him? That foot trampled not only his face, but also his soul.

At this moment, Oniel would even rather die earlier and escape from this hellish nightmare earlier.

The feet trampling on his face, the pointing and whispering all around, the rustling sounds, crushed all his pride and courage into humble dust.

He didn't know how long this nightmare would last.

In comparison, Ron did not feel the satisfaction of revenge. He behaved very indifferent and calm from beginning to end. Because of the remaining memories in his mind, he should have hated this man very much. After torturing O'Neill severely, he did feel some satisfaction in his chest, but... not much.

Maybe, it’s still not enough.

The original owner of this body hated the Copperfield family as much as he desired their recognition.

This kind of hatred cannot be eliminated by just one Onir.

After a long while, Ron exhaled, still maintaining the posture of trampling on the side of O'Neill's face with one foot, and his eyes finally fell on the humanoid object under him: "Come to think of it, I can still remember that the few times you caused serious harm to me seem to be only these few times..."

"But the number of times you bullied me is several times, even dozens of times..."

"It's really too much trouble to call back again and again. How about... just go through the process again and we'll be even. How about that?"

"hiss."

Even though O'Neill, who was lying on the ground, had already lost all his energy, he still couldn't help but gasp when he heard these words.

My goodness, is this guy a devil? Is he trying to turn himself into a human stick? That's too cruel.

In the previous process, he broke an arm, a leg, and five fingers. If he had to go through the same process again, even if all his limbs were broken, it would not be enough.

Of course, Ron was informing O'Neill, not discussing it with him.

As he spoke, Ron raised the Eye of the Dragon God.

Just as the scepter was about to smash down, a loud shout suddenly came from not far away: "Whoever dares to hurt my young master, stop it..."

The sound is like a huge bell.

It spread around like waves, echoing in the ears of every onlooker, buzzing.

One by one, their bodies were staggering, their legs were shaking, and they could not stand steadily. Some of them even sat down on the ground, their faces were pale, and the only thing left in their brains was the angry roar that kept echoing.

This roar affected at least thousands of onlookers around.

This alone is enough to show that the owner of the voice must be extremely powerful.

But, obviously, Ron was not among those affected.

There was no pause in his movements, and the Eye of the Dragon God in his hand smashed down with a whoosh.

Poor O'Neill, he let out a shrill scream, and his remaining left leg was broken right between the knees.

This guy is really about to turn into a human stick. His body is like a lowly insect, constantly wriggling and twisting on the ground, and his screams are enough to make anyone cry.

His neck was stiff, veins bulged on his forehead, and the corners of his eyes were even torn. Drops of bright red blood kept rolling down the corners of Onir's eyes.

"You dare, boy..."

The angry roar sounded again.

A figure finally appeared in front of Ron.

When Ron saw the man, he couldn't help but be slightly stunned, and then he grinned:

"Lao Deng, it's you!"

This is really a narrow road for enemies! 　The first chapter is 6,300, and there will be another big chapter of about 6,000 later.
