“The Meskill family may not have much power in the Central Part, and staying here might not be of much help!” The head of the Meskill family sighed and spoke.
“But I am a member of Glavale, and the Meskill family is a part of Glavale. That is something that can never be changed!”
“The Meskill family swears to live and die with the City Lord’s Manor!”
“Thank you!” Stephanie’s face showed a hint of relief.
“Do hope you don’t regret it!” With that, Norman Moyer and Milton Vaughan exchanged a glance and turned to leave.
“Apologies, madam!” Peter Cisneros and Vincent Gordon bid Stephanie farewell once again and followed suit.
Just minutes after the two of them departed, Sol Stuart’s phone rang.
“Madam, Frigid Fortress and Polar Trading Guild have made their move!” Sol Stuart hung up the phone and looked at Stephanie.
“Norman Moyer and Milton Vaughan must have tipped them off!” Gerald Hoover cursed under his breath. Then, he looked at the other three and said, “Let’s gather our respective powerhouses first! Roch is not to be underestimated!”
“Alright!” The three responded simultaneously.
“Mr Stuart, after they come out, we will join you in intercepting Roch!” Floyd Sparks looked at Sol Stuart and spoke.
“Thank you, everyone!” Sol Stuart nodded in response.
“Madam, you haven’t fully recovered yet. You should stay at the City Lord’s Manor for now!” Gerald Hoover also looked at Stephanie and said, “The four of us will go to the four city gates to support Howard Sutherland and the others!”
“Thank you all for your assistance!” Stephanie bowed slightly to the four of them, showing her gratitude.
“Please take care of yourself, Madam!” The four of them responded.
Then, the four of them headed towards their respective estates.
“Edie, go to the courtyard and meet up with Harleen and the others. Keep an eye on the people from the four families!” Stephanie then turned to Edie and instructed her.
“Stephanie, are you going to the city gates? I’ll go with you!” Edie spoke up.
Knowing Stephanie well, she knew that Stephanie would not stay at the City Lord’s Manor.
“You don’t have to go. Stay in the city and keep an eye on Norman Moyer’s group!”
As soon as Stephanie finished speaking, she flew towards the main city gate, with Sol Stuart following closely behind.
“Mr Stuart, Stephanie, be careful!” Edie shouted loudly.
At the same time, the four city gates of Skydragon City had already descended into a fierce battle.
Although Frigid Fortress and Polar Trading Guild were not in the majority, they were all elite soldiers and strong fighters, each with formidable combat abilities.
In just a few minutes, a large number of casualties were seen on the side of the City Lord’s Manor, with the dead and the wounded almost evenly split.
Among the four city gates, the main city gate faced the greatest pressure, as most of Frigid Fortress and Polar Trading Guild’s elite forces were concentrated there.
Apart from Roch, who was a Rank 8 Saint, and Cleary, who was a Rank 7 Saint, there were also four Rank 6 Saints and eight Rank 5 Saints among them.
In addition to these dozen or so people, there were also many early-stage Saint warriors.
Shortly after the intense battle began, four Saint warriors from the City Lord’s Manor were killed by Roch and Cleary.
Just as Stephanie and Sol Stuart arrived at the main city gate, one of the City Lord’s Manor’s Rank 4 Saints was blasted into a mist of blood by Roch’s palm strike.
“You fool, I’ll fight you to the death!” The leader of the City Lord’s Manor angrily shouted, raising his hand to attack Roch.
“Howard, come back! You are no match for him!” Sol Stuart’s voice rang out.
Before the words could even settle, Sol Stuart quickly moved forward, sweeping out a series of powerful waves of energy towards Roch.
“You finally show yourselves!” Roch glanced at Sol Stuart and Stephanie coldly, and then chuckled.
As he spoke, he raised his hand and sent out several palm strikes.
Bang!
The attacks of the two collided, creating a torrent of energy that sent everyone below flying.
Sol Stuart spurted out a mouthful of blood and was sent flying hundreds of meters away, his aura in disarray.
Sol Stuart was a Half-Step Eighth-rank Saint, one level lower than Roch, so his combat power was significantly weaker.
“Mr Stuart, are you okay?” Stephanie called out.
“Don’t worry, Madam, I’m fine!” Sol Stuart shook his head in response.
“Madam, why are you here too? They are very powerful, you…” Howard Sutherland approached the two, his face grave.
“Howard, you go with Elder Brock to deal with Cleary, leave Roch to Mr Stuart!” Stephanie interrupted him.
“Madam, Mr Stuart, he…” Howard Sutherland spoke with a hint of worry.
“It’s fine! Go!” Stephanie interrupted him again.
“Alright!” Howard Sutherland didn’t insist any further. After taking a deep breath, he and an elderly man nearby rushed towards Cleary.
At this moment, there were four elders from the City Lord’s Manor besieging Cleary, but all four were nearing their limit.
Boom!
Just as Howard Sutherland and the others were about to reach them, one of the elders was sent flying by Cleary’s palm, landing heavily on the ground and twitching a few times before going still.
“Elder Wang!” The other three exclaimed in pain simultaneously.
“Stop yelling, I’ll send you down to keep him company!” Cleary shouted, attacking again.
“Cleary, you wicked woman!” Howard Sutherland roared, unleashing a barrage of strikes towards Cleary.
Brock didn’t hesitate either, mobilizing his strongest power to meet her.
“Two more fools looking for death!” Cleary’s eyes narrowed slightly as she turned and attacked Howard Sutherland and Brock simultaneously.
Boom!
A deafening roar resounded through the void.
Howard Sutherland and Brock both had the cultivation of a Sixth-rank Saint, one level below Cleary.
After a round of exchanges, both of them had some injuries, but fortunately, they weren’t too severe.
“Elder Combs, you go help the others, leave her to me and Elder Brock!” Howard Sutherland then looked towards the three elders who were previously fighting with them.
“Sutherland, take care!” The three elders nodded in response and quickly rushed towards the battles of the others.
“Thinking of leaving? Did I agree?” Cleary spoke in a deep voice, about to catch up with them.
“Wicked woman, your opponents are us!” Howard Sutherland shouted, once again unleashing a thunderous barrage of attacks with Brock.
“If you two want to die, then I’ll grant your wish first!” Cleary furrowed her brows and turned to face the two.
Then, the three of them engaged in another fierce battle, their figures flashing and the airwaves soaring.
Boom!
At the same time, in the not-so-distant void, a loud noise rang out, followed by Sol Stuart being sent flying by Roch’s palm.
After several rounds of fighting, Sol Stuart had reached his limit, his aura unusually weakened.
“Mr Stuart!” Witnessing this scene, Stephanie smashed her opponent to the ground, then turned and swiftly moved towards Sol Stuart.
