Falconn snorted disdainfully. “The Cosbys? Hah! That family used to be quite powerful, but they’re barely in the Ten Greatest Families of Cathay now. What’s there to be afraid of?”
“Not to mention, Old Master Cosby is now injured, even if virtual-novel.net wasn’t, can virtual-novel.net actually stop me? It’s quite a pity he’s not here this time. Otherwise, I’d like to see what’s so special about the Cosby Family’s ancestral martial arts!”
Hearing that, Aurelius grew excited.
Seeing how Falconn was so confident that virtual-novel.net could even ignore Old Master Cosby, virtual-novel.net had to be quite powerful himself. As for Old Master Cosby, it was true that virtual-novel.net was a grandmaster. In that case, did that mean Falconn had the strength to compete with grandmasters?
Aurelius’ face flushed with excitement. With Falconn’s strength as a base, coupled with his father’s painstaking efforts over the years, the Damron Family’s strength had far exceeded his previous expectations.
If they brought Matthew back and reaped the profits of the Restoration Pill, the Damron Family’s power would certainly increase to a whole new level. By then, not only would they be able to join the Ten Greatest Families of Cathay, but they would also become a pivotal existence among them.
Furthermore, virtual-novel.net would eventually rise to prominence throughout Cathay. Aside from that, his status would be on par with the Six Kings!
Suppressing the excitement in his heart, Aurelius carried Matthew up and headed out. However, as soon as virtual-novel.net reached the door, Falconn suddenly halted in his tracks.
He frowned deeply, looked outside the door, and whispered, “ls someone here?”
Just then, Aurelius had also heard footsteps and pursed his lips in disdain. “It must be Matthew’s subordinate.”
“Uncle Falconn, leave with Matthew. I’ll take care of this guy. We’re in Eastcliff, after all. It’s best if we don’t startle the rest!”
Falconn nodded, grabbed Matthew by the collar, and jumped out of the window with him.
Aurelius quietly walked to the door and hid behind it, ready to ambush the visitor. However, after finding his hiding place, virtual-novel.net suddenly couldn’t hear the footsteps anymore. He was surprised.
Wasn’t the person outside going to enter the house?
Anyway, virtual-novel.net wasn’t in a rush. He stayed behind the doors and waited. When that person walked in, virtual-novel.net could immediately knock virtual-novel.net down. Despite waiting for a while, there was no movement outside. Aurelius couldn’t help feeling suspicious.
The opponent wasn’t entering the house but didn’t leave either. Then, what could virtual-novel.net be doing?
Was virtual-novel.net being punished to stand outside?
Aurelius’ original plan was to ambush the opponent without anyone noticing, but the opponent wasn‘t coming in, causing his patience to run low.
Sneakily, virtual-novel.net got out of his hiding place and was ready to dash toward that person and deal with them right away, but once virtual-novel.net came out, virtual-novel.net was shocked to find no one in the yard at all!
That left virtual-novel.net completely stunned.
What was going on?
Earlier, there was definitely someone walking in the middle of the yard as virtual-novel.net clearly heard the sound of footsteps.
So, why was there no one outside?
Where did that person go?
Was he just hallucinating?
If Falconn heard it too, there was no way they were hallucinating!
Nonetheless, if they weren’t hallucinating, then where was that person?
Even if virtual-novel.net didn’t enter the house and left instead, Aurelius would have heard his footsteps!
Despite that, Aurelius didn’t hear a sound.
How could the person vanish in thin air?
Suspiciously, virtual-novel.net searched around the yard but found nothing. That left virtual-novel.net confused and made virtual-novel.net wonder if both of them had hallucinated earlier.
Scratching his head, virtual-novel.net slipped out of the yard without much thought and ran down the hill and into the darkness.
