Chapter 307: Setting Out, A Man As Excellent as Me
This journey!
Naturally, it must have referred to the journey to South Forest!
A trap!
Where does the trap come from?
The order to pacify South Forest came from the Padishah King Ron himself. If there was a trap, it seemed that the source could only be King Ron, after all, the whole thing was under his control!
The whole world!
It was King Ron’s chessboard!!!
This made Sean’s sense of unease grow even stronger!
It seemed!
Things are not as simple as they seem!
As for the content of the message, Sean did not doubt it. Although this number was contacting him for the first time and there was no note on his phone, he recognized the number at a glance!
He knew who the owner of this number was!
The Campbell family!
Before Sean came to the capital, Zackary told him his uncle’s contact information. Because the Campbell family had suffered great losses for him in Crane and in Hilshire, he didn’t want to involve Zackary’s uncle unless it was absolutely necessary, so he had never actively contacted Zackary’s uncle!
Unexpectedly!
Zackary’s uncle took the initiative to contact him!
And!
He was warning him!!!
Obviously!
Zackary’s uncle holds a position in the royal city and knows much more about King Ron than Sean does, and may even know some things that are not known to others!
So his words are credible!!!
“Honey!”
“What’s wrong?”
Cecilia noticed Sean’s unusual behavior.
“Nothing!”
Sean shook his head with a smile, saying, “This trip to South Forest to quell the chaos is different from the previous battles in the North. His Majesty has everything under control!”
“I see!”
“Nothing more than a formality, my lady, don’t worry, I have to hurry back before May 20th to hold a grand wedding with you that’s never been seen before!”
Mentioning the wedding!
Cecilia’s face turned even redder!
However!
Her worries did not lessen at all, and she worriedly said, “Never mind the rest, but His Majesty, knowing that the relationship between you and the crown prince has broken down, insists on sending the crown prince to South Forest with you!”
“I always feel!”
“There’s something strange about this!”
Cecilia, although she doesn’t understand martial arts, is a very wise woman. Those intrigues and intrigues of royal power struggle, she has no qualification to participate in, she only knows, King Ron and Ashby are father and son by blood!
Sean, to King Ron, is always an outsider after all!!!
Will King Ron really choose to abandon his own son and vigorously support an outsider like Sean?
This is also where Cecilia’s worries lie. The luxurious and imposing Palace of Wolf that Sean is now enjoying came overnight, like a dream. It was given to Sean by King Ron’s word, which made Sean a new upstart in the capital. All the major families in the capital came to congratulate him.
However!
King Ron is the reigning Padishah!
One word from him could give Sean everything!
Similarly, one word from him could take it all back!!!
Sean pulled Cecilia into his arms, gently patting her on the shoulder, and asked with a smile, “Wife, do you think I’m stupid?”
“Huh?”
Cecilia was taken aback, then shook her head and said, “Of course not!”
“Am I dumb?”
“Of course not!”
“Am I handsome?”
“Of course not…”
Halfway through her sentence, Cecilia realized something was wrong and immediately corrected herself, “Of course you are!”
“Isn’t that it?”
Sean smiled triumphantly, “Your husband is so smart, so capable, and so handsome. He’s both literate and martial, intelligent and brave, and simply a rare young hero!”
“So!”
“How could I possibly get into trouble???”
After listening to his words, which were both reasonable and full of confidence, Cecilia couldn’t help but roll her eyes at Sean.
“Pooh!”
“Narcissist!”
Cecilia’s pretty face turned even redder. She buried her face in Sean’s chest and pounded him a few times with her fist.
“Am I very narcissistic?”
“I don’t think so.”
“I’m just more self-aware…”
In front of his wife, Sean’s face was particularly thick. He held Cecilia even tighter, and quietly said, “Honey, actually, sometimes, I’m very, very envious of you!”
“Envious of you!”
“To have a good husband as excellent as me!”
Pfft!
As soon as Sean’s words fell, there was an immediate sound of choking from the surroundings!
Julia, Spirit Wolf, Ear Wolf…
They all choked!
Sean looked up at Julia and asked, “Julia, you’re also very, very envious of my wife, aren’t you?”
“Unfortunately!”
“Nothing can be done, a man as excellent as me is unique in the world. I’m afraid you won’t be able to find a second one!”
“So!”Content is © 2024 NôvelDrama.Org.
“You can only be envious in this life…”
With a spurt!
Julia, who had indeed been very envious before, was now already letting go, but was teased by Sean, this scoundrel, in front of Cecilia. How could she bear it?
Her pretty face turned even redder!
Then!
With a rush, she stood up and said, “My wounds don’t seem to be fully healed yet, Cecilia, you guys chat slowly, I’m going back to my room to rest first…”
After that!
She fled in haste!
Spirit Wolf and Ear Wolf, among others, also stood up, looking embarrassed, “Boss, today…”
“Isn’t it Valentine’s Day, is it?”
They felt hurt!
Sean raised his eyebrows questioningly, “Is it not?”
“You wolf cubs don’t understand!”
“As long as you’re with your wife, every day is Valentine’s Day!”
Spirit Wolf and Ear Wolf looked at each other!
Damn!
Worthy of being the boss!
Worthy of being the Wolf King!
We surrender!
Can we surrender?
They gave Sean a big thumbs up, then Spirit Wolf signaled to Phyllis, “Phyllis, let’s go, we will take you to continue practicing boxing…”
“Great, great!”
Phyllis jumped off Sean’s lap, covered her eyes, and started running outside, shouting as she ran, “Wolf Uncles, hurry up!”
“Hurry up!”
“Dad and Mom are going to give me little brothers and sisters, a lot of little brothers and sisters!”
“It’s so tiring!”
“You’re not allowed to peek!”
After that!
The little girl had already run out of the attic in excitement, not even pulling Sean to practice boxing with her anymore!
Seeing Phyllis’s jubilant figure, Sean’s forehead instantly wrinkled, he had embarrassed Cecilia and Julia, and embarrassed Spirit Wolf and Ear Wolf, but he was left speechless by this little girl’s words!
In his ear!
It seemed like he heard that incredibly familiar sound from the game: K… O…
Damn!
Worthy of being Phyllis!
Worthy of being a four-year-old child!
Worthy of being the beloved daughter of the Northern Wolf King, Sean!
Sean also surrendered!
Wholeheartedly…
…
The time spent together as a family was always so harmonious, so joyful, that even the air seemed to be filled with the scent of happiness!
In the afternoon!
Sean was practicing boxing with Phyllis!
In the evening!
Sean and Cecilia put in a great effort to give Phyllis a little brother or sister!
Meanwhile, outside the Palace of Wolf!
When the news that the Padishah had appointed Sean as General of the South and Ashby as his deputy, and that they were to head to South Forest the next day, spread, it immediately caused a sensation throughout the capital!
The streets were buzzing with discussion!
After all!
The rupture in Sean and Ashby’s relationship was well known, and the Padishah had chosen to send them together to quell disturbances in the South Forest. Was this an attempt to reconcile their relationship?
In a moment!
Rumors flew, and gossip filled the sky!
So much so!
The next morning, when the five thousand imperial guards assembled, it drew the attention of the entire city. The streets were deserted, and crowds gathered as far as the eye could see!
The hundred thousand troops previously arranged by King Ron had already been dispatched to South Forest in advance, while these five thousand imperial guards were only there to accompany and protect Sean and Ashby on their journey!
“Honey!”
“Wait for me!”
Sean, seated on the back of the Black Rhino Tiger, exchanged a deep gaze with Cecilia!
Then!
He turned to Spirit Wolf and others, and Tim Lewis and others, and cautioned: “Remember my words!”
This trip!
Seemingly calm!
In reality, fraught with undercurrents!
Though one must not harbor harmful intentions, one should always be wary. Sean was heading to South Forest alone, without anyone else, intending to leave Spirit Wolf and others, and Tim Lewis and others, in the capital, by Cecilia and Phyllis’s side!
In case of a change in the capital!!!
“Please rest assured, Wolf King, we will spare no effort and will not hesitate to protect!”
“We swear to guard the Palace of Wolf!”
“We absolutely will not let the Wolf King’s wife and daughter come to harm!!!”
Tim Lewis and others expressed their commitment!
Spirit Wolf and others just nodded at Sean. The bond of brotherhood and camaraderie of five years, everything was understood without words. As long as they had a breath left in them, they would not let Cecilia and Phyllis get hurt!
At that moment!
A royal luxury car slowly drove up and stopped about ten meters from the Black Rhino Tiger. After a moment, the car door opened, and Ashby emerged!
“Mr. Mason!”
“Oh, right, I should now call you General of the South!”
Ashby’s eyes were filled with cold hatred, but his face bore a very gentle smile. He said, “South Forest is in chaos, causing harm to the world. The battlefield is merciless, and weapons do not distinguish!”
“General Mason, are you sure you don’t need to bring any personnel?”
“Just in case!”
“Hehe!”
“I mean, just in case!”
“If something unforeseen happens to General Mason, I’m afraid I will have a hard time explaining to my father!”
Behind Ashby!
The eleven elderly people who had narrowly escaped death yesterday had all arrived to accompany Ashby to South Forest!
Obviously!
Ashby’s words carried hidden threats!
“No need!”
Sean retorted: “I am more familiar with the battlefield than the prince. Otherwise, the emperor wouldn’t have appointed me as the main general and asked the prince to condescend to be my deputy!”
“Your Highness is right!”
“The battlefield is merciless, and weapons do not distinguish!”
“At that time!”
“In the midst of the rebel army, life and death are fated. No one will treat you as a prince!”
“Just in case!”
“I also mean just in case!”
“If the prince unfortunately dies, I will bring your body back to the capital and apologize to the emperor myself!”
The two of them!
At loggerheads!
Sparks had already flown before they had even set off!!!
“Good!”
“Very good!”
Ashby seemed confident, laughing coldly: “As the saying goes, let’s wait and see!”
After saying this!
Ashby waved his hand and shouted loudly: “Let’s go!”
“To the train station!”
Kisia had a special railway network for transporting troops, stretching from the capital to all parts of the country. This large force of more than five thousand people, starting from the capital, could reach the edge of South Forest by nightfall!!!
