Chapter 1255: Chapter 1253: Coming-of-Age Ceremony

In a certain room within the royal palace, an elderly man dressed in a red robe with graying hair was sitting in a chair, reading a book. He was none other than Philip’s grandfather, the Duke of the Y Country royal family, Feileke.

Suddenly, the sound of knocking echoed. Feileke put down the book and said, ”Come in!”

A royal guard quickly walked in, standing before Feileke with a face that betrayed a mix of emotions.

”What has happened?”

Feileke looked at the royal guard and spoke.

”Young Master Philip, he...”

The royal guard hesitated, his tone faltering.

”What about Philip? Did he get into trouble again?”

Feileke’s brow furrowed.

”Young Master Philip... he’s dead!”

The guard spoke.

”What? Murdered? How is that possible? Who did it?”

Feileke stood up abruptly, his face filled with disbelief. His eyes gleamed with fury.

”It was a Chinese man!”

The royal guard spoke.

”A Chinese man?”

Feileke’s expression turned dark, his gaze sharp and icy.

”Go investigate immediately. Find this Chinese man and arrest him. To dare kill my grandson, Feileke, I will make him wish he were dead!”

Feileke’s cold voice was filled with rage, his entire being exuding an overwhelming anger.

”Yes!”

The royal guard nodded and quickly left.

”Philip, rest assured, I will avenge you!”

Feileke’s eyes glimmered with a chilling light.

Meanwhile, within the Charles Family, Charles stood there, with a member of the Blood Clan by his side.

”Is he the one who previously obtained the Heart of the Angel?”

Charles spoke in a deep voice.

”Yes, according to our intelligence, it’s him!”

The Blood Clan member responded.

”If that’s the case, then we absolutely can’t let him go. The Saint Hall has been vying to claim the Heart of the Angel. If we secure it, it will undoubtedly be a monumental achievement. By then, the Ancestor will surely value the Charles Family even more.”

Charles’ eyes sparkled coldly.

”It seems I must take action personally!”

Charles said in a low, deliberate tone.

”Father, are you going to personally deal with that kid?”

At this moment, Flotte approached, looking at Charles as he spoke.

”Yes, he is extremely important to us in the Blood Clan!”

Charles nodded.

”With you personally taking action, Father, that kid is as good as dead.”

An icy gleam flashed through Flotte’s eyes.

Meanwhile, in Europe, within that mysterious and majestic palace, a black-robed figure knelt on the ground behind a man dressed in distinctive attire.

”Divine Envoy, that’s the situation!”

The black-robed figure spoke.

”The Fire King, who controlled True Sunfire, actually died at the hands of a young man. Interesting. Was there any trace of the True Sunfire Seed found on him?”

The man said indifferently.

”No, there was no trace of the True Sunfire Seed at all.”

The black-robed figure responded in a deep voice.

”No trace? How could that be? This is getting interesting. Go bring that young man here. I find him quite intriguing. He might even prove to be a promising talent!”

The man dressed in distinctive attire spoke.

”Yes, Master!”

The black-robed figure nodded and immediately departed.

”Interesting!”

The man stood within the palace, murmuring to himself, his eyes gleaming brilliantly.

The next day, in the Locke Family’s manor.

Xiao Yifeng woke up, walked out of his room, and saw Shen Yuting sitting in the living room.

”Good morning!”

Xiao Yifeng greeted Shen Yuting.

”Morning!”

Shen Yuting responded with a smile, looking at Xiao Yifeng.

”When do you plan to return to Tianhai?”

Shen Yuting asked, looking at Xiao Yifeng.

”Are you planning to go back with me?”

Xiao Yifeng looked at Shen Yuting with curiosity.

”Yes, I thought about it all night and realized that I do miss home, my parents, and my grandfather. Besides, with what happened last night, it’s no longer suitable for me to stay here, so I’ve decided to go back.”

Shen Yuting said.

”Alright, I plan to leave in a few days anyway. We can go back together then.”

Xiao Yifeng nodded.

”You’re heading back to China? Take me with you!”

Alice suddenly appeared and said to Xiao Yifeng.

”Don’t you still have the Assassin Organization? Why are you going back to China?”

Xiao Yifeng asked, looking at Alice.

”I already handed over the leadership of the Assassin Organization after I rescued them. I’ve retired from the assassin world. Now, I just want to stay by your side as your woman. Don’t even think about ditching me. Wherever you go, I’ll follow.”

Alice clung to Xiao Yifeng’s arm and said.

”If you come back to China with me, won’t Xuelin be left here all alone?”

Xiao Yifeng spoke casually.

”Then let her come with us. I think she’d also like to be with you.”

Alice said softly.

”She’s not like you. She’s the sole heir of the Locke Family and also Ouliya’s CEO. She has a mountain of responsibilities and can’t just come with us.”

”How about this? You stay by her side. I’ll help you improve your strength, so you can both keep her company and protect her. If you miss me, I can visit anytime, and you can always come to China to find me; it’s up to you. What do you think?”

Xiao Yifeng asked, looking at Alice.

”Alright.”

Although a bit unwilling, Alice nodded.

Afterward, Xiao Yifeng gave Alice a Tempering Pill and several Spiritual Medicines. In less than half a day, her strength was boosted to the late stage of the Qi Condensation Realm.

He then handed her several Spirit Fruits and a pile of Spirit Stones, urging her to cultivate diligently. With these resources, it wouldn’t be hard for her to break through to the Entering Saint Realm.

That afternoon, Xiao Yifeng met Fei Xuelin, who had returned from the company.

”Today marks Princess Shava’s eighteenth birthday. The Queen is hosting a birthday banquet tonight in the royal palace for Princess Shava, inviting notable business figures, financial tycoons, and elite families from Country Y and Europe. My grandfather and I have also been invited. However, my grandfather declined, so I’ll be attending on his behalf. Would you like to accompany me?”

Fei Xuelin asked, looking at Xiao Yifeng.

”The birthday banquet of the Princess of Country Y? Isn’t that a bit out of my league? I’m not some kind of big shot.”

Xiao Yifeng said, shrugging.

”But you’re my man—Fei Xuelin’s man. That gives you more qualifications than any so-called big shot to attend Princess Shava’s banquet!”

Fei Xuelin’s tone carried a mix of assertiveness and dominance, exuding a queenly presence.

”Not bad—now that’s a line I like hearing. In that case, I’ll join you. I might as well get a glimpse of what this Princess of Country Y looks like.”

Xiao Yifeng said.
