Chapter 410: The Crisis of the Murray Family

Chapter 410: The Crisis of the Murray Family (First Update)

Chier Province, Rainbow City, the residence of the Mori family.

As the winner of last year's Rainbow City family competition, the number one family in Rainbow City, when Jason was here last year, the members of the Mori family were always full of vigor and vitality.

However, now, an inexplicable and restless atmosphere is constantly flowing in the family mansion, oppressing all members of the entire Mori family, making it almost suffocating.

In the family meeting hall, the Mori family's chief Kester and others were sitting in the hall with gloomy faces.

"Master Patriarch, no matter how much you go on, it won't work. Just yesterday, the family's convoy was attacked by a group of mysterious people. The entire convoy's goods worth millions of spirit coins were all lost, and the family guards who transported the goods were even worse There were heavy casualties, if it wasn’t for Yan Lie’s promotion from a fifth-level senior sect spiritual master to a sixth-level low-level spiritual master with the help of Master Locke not long ago, I’m afraid none of the family members in the convoy would have come back alive.”

"Right now, Yan Lie is still lying in the room, seriously injured. I'm afraid he will have to recuperate for at least a month or two. If this... family continues like this, it won't work."

On the seat below, Elder Marconi stood up, expressing grief and indignation.

In the hall, all the members of the Mori family lowered their heads imperceptibly, and sighed aloud, and Patriarch Kester also looked tired. It was only a year ago, and he had a lot of gray hair on his temples. , much older.

In the past year, the Murray family has faced an unprecedented crisis, which left Kester devastated and at a loss.

Last May, with Jason's help, the Mori family won the Rainbow City family competition. The Mori family was singing and dancing, and everyone's faces were filled with joyful smiles.

After Jason went to the secret realm of the Spirit Pool, Kester and the others were waiting for Jason's safe return. Unexpectedly, three months later, a news came out from the secret realm of the Spirit Pool that shocked Kester and others. .

Jason, who helped the Mori family to victory, was attacked by the seventh-level low-level imperial spiritualist Cornhill, the patriarch of the Naton family, in the secret realm of the spirit pool, and finally fled in panic, never coming out of the secret realm of the spirit pool.

This news immediately stunned the entire Mori family, especially Lokuhn, who cried bitterly, saying that Master will be fine.

The entire Murray family didn't know how to comfort him. For Lokuhn, Jason, who saved his life and cured his serious illness, was the spiritual pillar in his heart.

However, the matter had just begun. Not long after the news came, the Murray family's convoy was frequently attacked by some mysterious people. The opponent was powerful and their whereabouts were strange. The Murray family tried their best to do nothing to them.

Many families in Chier Province immediately canceled their business cooperation with the Mori family.

And ever since losing the family competition, the Rocky family, who had been silent for a long time in Tianhong City obediently in front of a coward, suddenly became strong again. I don't know where they got a lot of resources, and they kept suppressing Mori. All the properties of the family in Rainbow City.

During these seven months, the situation of the Mori family has gone from bad to worse. Not only have various external businesses been blocked, but even in Rainbow City, the Mori family has been oppressed by the Rocky family.

The opponent's plan is very vicious, which is to cut off the Murray family's economy and let the Murray family gradually weaken. In order to resist the opponent's trajectory, Kester had to bite the bullet and send a convoy, and let the strong members of the family follow.

However, the people sent by the other party are stronger. Every time, not only the cargo of the convoy is damaged, but even the family members suffer heavy casualties.

Kester and the others are not fools, so they naturally know the reason for all this, but they have nothing to do in the face of such a powerful enemy.

If it weren't for Locke, the fifth-level senior elixir master, the entire Murray family would have been unable to support them and collapsed completely.

However, the opponent's weirdness is obviously successful. In Tianhong City, the Mori family, which was known as the first family last year, has long been suppressed by the Rocky family. The entire family power of the Mori family, this The decline has been severe over the years, even less than a quarter of its heyday.

If it continues like this, I am afraid that within a year, the Mori family will completely decline and become a second-rate family, which will no longer be able to continue to gain a foothold in Rainbow City.

"Master Patriarch..."

At this moment, a servant suddenly walked in from the door of the meeting hall, holding a letter in his hand.

"Master Patriarch, this is a letter sent by the Rocky family." The servant handed over the letter at Kester's signal.

Under the curious eyes of everyone in the hall, Kester opened the letter, and after just a few glances, Kester showed an extremely angry expression on his face.

"Too much deception, really too much deception." Kester blushed and said angrily.

"Master Patriarch, what did the Rocky family say in the letter?" Someone asked from below.

"The Luoji family asked our Mori family to either leave Rainbow City, or to have a life-and-death duel with their Rocky family on the competition stage three days later. The losing family must withdraw from Rainbow City." Kester gritted his teeth.

"This... a life-and-death duel, Lord Patriarch, I can't agree." Marconi and the others' expressions changed suddenly, and they shouted.

"Can't agree? Huh?" Kester had a wry smile on his face, with sadness in his eyes, "The Rocky family has submitted a duel statement to the City Lord's Mansion. If we don't agree, we must withdraw from Rainbow City. How can the Li family retreat without a fight?"

Everyone below is silent.

Where will the glory of the Murray family be placed if they retreat without a fight? If it gets out, the family will be cast aside by the people of the entire province from now on.

"What's more, even if we quit, will our Mori family have a way out?" Kester sees it very clearly. With the other party's means, he will never just want the territory of Rainbow City, but want them. The lives of everyone in the Murray family.

The people below were also saddened. They were not idiots to become important members of the family. They naturally knew that their family had completely offended that big family since last year, and the other party would not give them any way out.

The Murray family can't retreat, and they can't.

"Our Mori family has experienced several crises since its rise in Tianhong City three hundred years ago. The ancestors of the past generations have never backed down. I, Kester, will never back down. He, the Rocky family, wants to fight with you." If we fight to the death, then it will be as they wish, and I, Kester, will lead the family and fight to the death without retreating." Kester's eyes were firm, fearless of life and death.

"Never retreat in a deadly battle, never retreat in a deadly battle"

Everyone below roared angrily. This is the power inherited by a family. Knowing that there are many crises ahead, knowing that the future is more dangerous, they will not back down.

"Master Locke." Kester suddenly said to Locke: "Tomorrow, you will secretly leave the family with Lokuhn, and live in seclusion in a place where no one knows you."

"Lokuen, you practice hard with Master Locke. Master Jess is so powerful, his family must not be an unknown person. You can inquire about Lord Jess's family in secret. If you find it, you will find it." The news of Master Jess' death tells the other party, seek the other party's asylum, if you can't find it, then you should practice hard, and when you are strong, come back and avenge us all."

"No, father," Lokuhn stood up abruptly, his expression extremely excited: "I won't leave, I want to be with the family, and I also believe that Master will never die, he will definitely come back .”

Kester said angrily: "Lokuen, don't you even listen to your father's words? Lokuen, you are the only hope for our Mori family. Do you want us all to die? Son, live , there is hope."

Since Jason cured Lokuhn's illness last year, Kester and the others were shocked by the progress of Lokuhn who practiced hard. It has only been ten months since Jason went to the secret realm of the Spirit Pool. Time, but in these ten months, Lokuhn has been promoted from the original fourth-level low-level sky spirit master to the current fifth-level low-level sect spirit master.

It took less than a year to advance to a full level. Kester and the others had never even heard of such a powerful cultivation speed.

Only now did Kester and the others understand what Master Jess meant when he congratulated himself after discovering Lokuhn's body. Is it too scary?

With Lokuhn's cultivation speed, Kester and the others are full of confidence. Ten or twenty years later, Lokuhn will definitely have the strength to come back to avenge himself.

It's just that in the past year, Lokuhn has never believed the news that Master Jess has passed away, which makes Kester quite helpless. In history, the healer who failed to come out after entering the secret realm of the spirit pool has never come out alive again .

"No, I won't go." Lokuhn took a heavy step forward, gritted his teeth, his eyes were unyielding, and retorted: "I know that only by living can there be hope, but..."

"Nothing but" Kester suppressed anger in his tone: "Your wings are stiff, right? You don't even listen to my words? Well, very well. From now on, I, Kester, will pretend that I don't have your son. .”

"Father" Lokuhn choked up, he didn't expect that his father who always loved him would be so heartless.

"Don't call me father." Kester said with determination on his face, "Okay, I'm tired too, everyone, let's go."

Kester turned around and walked out of the hall resolutely. No one saw him. The moment he turned around, tears flickered in his eyes.

In the silent meeting hall, noisy voices began to sound. Marconi and others glanced at Lokuhn who was standing in the hall, and they all sighed secretly, and walked out of the hall.

They all know the good intentions of the patriarch.
