Chapter 978 Returning To The Family

The five of them sat in the carriage and headed to the courtyard.

The Central Court City was a metropolis. Unlike the other cities around it, there were tens of thousands of factories in this metropolis that were used to mass-produce weapons and equipment, as well as some replenishment potions.

This was the supply center of the Demon Blood Lord.This composition is securely entrenched in n0v*lbin★

All the resources needed by his colossal army would be produced in this city.

Therefore, before they reached the city, they could see a layer of dark smoke covering the city from afar.

This city was different from the other cities around it. There were no walls here, and they could already see slums when they passed by the city’s edge.

After all, this was the central area of the cluster of cities. If there was a beast tide threat, they might be unable to break through the outer cities.

They only arrived in Central Court City at night.

When Lu Yu got off the carriage, he was covered in thick smog. The surrounding light was dim, and the visibility was very low.

It was rare to see dim street lamps here, which was very different from other primitive cities.

Although it was night, there were still many pedestrians on the streets. They were all hurrying along.

Lu Yu looked around and said, “There are quite a lot of people here. The buildings here are quite tall.”

Lu Yu looked up and saw that the buildings in the city center were 70 to 80 meters tall.

Although it couldn’t be compared to the modern metropolis of the Freedom Federation, it was a surprising sight here.

“Let’s go; I’ll bring you to my family.”

Elena took the lead and started walking on the street with Lu Yu and the others followed behind.

Soon, they arrived at a manor far away from the city center.

The manor occupied a relatively large area, almost equivalent to a medium-sized village. There were probably hundreds of people living here.

If he didn’t know this was the headquarters of the Dolan family, Lu Yu would have thought this was simply a village.

“Open the gates,” said Elena as she walked to the place’s entrance.

When the two guards saw Elena, they immediately revealed excited expressions.

“Miss Elena, you’re back!”

The guard asked with his mouth wide open.

“That’s right, I’m back. Open the gates. I want to see my parents.”

“Yes, Miss. Master is very sad about you going missing.”

After Elena entered the manor, the guard looked at Lu Yu and the others. “Miss, who are these people?” he asked.

“They were the ones who saved me, my benefactors. Let them in.”

“Yes, sir!”

The two guards let Lu Yu and the others in.

In front of them were a group of villas, with dozens arranged in a row.

At the center was a meeting hall, which looked similar to a church.

As soon as she entered the manor, she met a family member.

A man in a suit walked over. When he saw Elena, his eyes and mouth opened wide.

He put his hands on his head and looked at Elena with tears in his eyes.

“Elena, you… you’re back!”

He quickly walked toward Elena and started to size her up.

“You came back unscathed! Where did you go? Why haven’t you returned home for so long?”

The person who spoke was her uncle, Arthus.

“Let’s talk about it later. In short, they were the ones who saved me.”

Arthus looked at Lu Yu and the others behind him and quickly walked forward to hold Lu Yu’s hand.

“Thank you so much for helping Elena and saving her life. You are all the benefactors of Elena and the Dolan family!”

Lu Yu smiled politely. “You flatter me.”

“Let’s go to the meeting hall and gather everyone in the family to announce the good news!”

Soon, they arrived at the meeting hall, which looked like a church; inside was a podium in front and seats behind it.

After Arthus brought them to the meeting hall, he turned around and gathered everyone in the family.

Soon, a middle-aged man in a suit entered the meeting hall and walked toward Elena.

He had a white beard and hair. When he walked in, his eyes were filled with tears; he stood still momentarily in shock.

“Elena, it’s you! You’re back!”

He quickly strode ahead and hugged Elena.

The father and daughter hugged each other and separated after a while.

“What exactly happened to you? Tell me, I will definitely avenge you!”

“I was kidnapped by the Orlando family,” said Elena quickly. “They imprisoned me. They were going to kill me when I turn 18!”

When Elena’s father, Osborne, heard this, his face twisted with anger.

“Those bunch of bastards! How dare they do this to my daughter! I will never forgive them!”

He roared and clenched his fists, his joints cracking.

Gradually, the members of the Dolan family entered the meeting hall one after another. Each of them was dressed luxuriously and elegantly.

Everyone was surprised when they saw Elena. Some cried, some looked at her curiously, and some didn’t take it seriously and whispered.

In the family, there were all kinds of people wearing all sorts of emotions.

Osborne stood on the podium, looked at the crowd, and coughed twice. “Everyone, quiet down. I want to say a few words.”

His prestige in the family was strong. As soon as he said this, everyone fell silent.

“Now, Elena is back and standing in front of us. We should be glad that she came back alive!”

“Our Dolan family will rely on Elena’s unique talent to reach our peak in the future!”

“As for the Orlando family, they will be trampled under our feet sooner or later.”

“Now that Elena is back, we have the means to defeat the Orlando family again. This is a blessing for the entire family!”

Osborne looked at Lu Yu next to him and asked curiously, “Who are you?”

“They saved me and escorted me here,” Elena quickly explained.

As soon as he said this, Lu Yu instantly felt a few unfriendly gazes, hostile toward them.

Osborne quickly looked at Lu Yu and smiled. “Thank you so much; you saved my daughter; you are a great benefactor of our family!”

Lu Yu just smiled back. “I just happened to meet her, so I saved her.”

“The family should thank you for this. Really, thank you for your help.”

Lu Yu shook his head slightly and said, “However, it seems that some people here are not grateful for that. They’re hostile to us, even though we have never met.”

Hearing this, Osborne was stunned, then curiously asked, “What do you mean?”

“Someone doesn’t like to see us bring Elena back. Someone here, among this group of people.”

Osborne was dumbfounded; didn’t this mean there was a traitor in their family?
