Chapter 1220: A New Pillar
Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
Braydon Neal’s martial arts talent wasn’t just inherited from his father’s excellence; he had surpa.s.sed his father already!
Within three years, Braydon was bound to surpa.s.s his ancestors.
Surprised, Chaim Hull asked, “Your father is Louis Neal?”
“Leave right now. Otherwise, you won’t be able to live!”
Braydon spat, then headed to the red door and gently knocked, saying, “Jayven, open the door!”
Crack!
The red door slowly opened, revealing Braydon standing outside.
“Brother!” Jayven Neal’s eyes turned red as he came out and shouted sadly.
“Don’t cry, silly boy. The sons of the Neal family stand fearless against all enemies. I’m still here. What are you afraid of?” rea.s.sured Braydon, the protective elder brother.
Being the elder brother, Braydon always provided his younger siblings with a strong sense of security.
Who do you think nurtured Luke Yates’ unruly and trouble-making personality?
It was Braydon who shielded Luke since his youth, ensuring that he never experienced fear.
Sapphire also approached the door. While she had typically been calm and composed, now she appeared noticeably fatigued.
Jayven, too, looked weary. Various events had transpired in the Neal residence, all centered around the siblings. And now, with Braydon’s return, a new chapter unfolded.
“Sapphire!” Lonn Hull, a notorious playboy from the Hull family, called out l.u.s.tfully when he saw Sapphire.
However, Sapphire ignored him.
He was a well-known playboy, excelling in indulgences like food, drink, prost.i.tutes, and gambling, making even ten Jayvens pale in comparison.
Sapphire didn’t need to say anything. Braydon had already a.s.sessed the situation.
The hedonistic son of the Hull family was set to marry Sapphire. How could someone like Lonn be worthy of Sapphire?
The Hull family believed that the Neal residence had declined due to Lonn’s characteristics!
Chaim ascended the steps, ready to enter the Neal residence.
He said, “Sapphire, is your mother at home? I need to discuss something with her.”
Chaim aimed to discuss the marriage between his son and Sapphire.
The Hull family believed that the Neal residence wouldn’t dare to refuse today’s marriage proposal.
If they had proposed marriage yesterday, the Neal family wouldn’t have had the ability to refuse without a master.
However, today was different – the third-generation eldest son of the Neal family had returned!
Braydon turned around and said indifferently, “What does your Hull family want to talk about? I’ll talk to you.”
“You are just a junior! You have no right.” Chaim expressed his dissatisfaction with Braydon’s arrogant words.
“Since you don’t want to talk, then let’s settle it differently,” Braydon said softly.
Swoosh!
The ghost-faced youth, Skylar Neal, attacked on the spot, enveloping the entire area with the pressure of an ascendant pinnacle.
Skylar’s aura shocked all the martial artists present.
Skylar, wearing a mask, had been quiet until now. Despite his young appearance, he possessed the strength of an ascendant pinnacle, presenting the image of a formidable giant.
“Who are you?” Chaim asked in shock.
“I’m Lior Neal’s son, Skylar Neal!”
Skylar attacked, mirroring his brother, Braydon.
His white robe resembled snow as he activated the eight pinnacle techniques – a display reminiscent of a G.o.d or an immortal.
Skylar swiftly moved, drawing the cold sword from his waist at a terrifying speed.
Chaim, shocked and furious, hadn’t antic.i.p.ated the junior’s strength to be so formidable.
His vitality surged, forming an invisible barrier to block Skylar.
Chaim, an inimitable pinnacle, possessed considerable strength.
However, Skylar’s cold voice cut through the tension. “You bullied my sister. From today onward, I will kill all those surnamed Hull!”
Swoosh!
Eight techniques were released, and the ninth technique, Slaying Immortal, was the unification of the eight techniques.
Skylar’s white light was akin to a rosy glow. He retracted it and shot it out with his left hand.
A white beam of light, exuding a strong killing intent, emerged, capable of breaking all things.
The beam resembled a sword, stunning everyone with its brilliance.
The white light blinded onlookers.
After the attack, Chaim and hundreds of others were killed on the spot, none spared.
The corpses, numbering in the hundreds, lay lifeless, a testament to the power of the forbidden technique, Slaying Immortal, comparable to Braydon’s martial arts.
Skylar seldom used the forbidden technique, Slaying Immortal, but its unprecedented power was undeniable.
The silence that followed was profound.
More than a hundred people, including an inimitable pinnacle, were killed with a single strike, showcasing Skylar as a top genius of the South Pole Island.
Jayven’s eyes widened, astounded by the shocking display of strength.
However, the surrounding onlookers had dispersed, leaving behind the grim aftermath.
The giant family’s members lay dead at the door, a profound humiliation.
The Hull family was sure to seek revenge.
Braydon entered the Neal residence. He paid no attention to the deceased Chaim, unfazed by the possibility of a significant figure behind the Hull family.
Was there no big shot backing Braydon?
In terms of background, Braydon had never been surpa.s.sed since childhood.
In the living room, the atmosphere hung heavy with the repercussions of the dramatic events outside.
When Karen Jo saw Braydon return, her expression changed slightly. She didn’t say more but anxiously asked, “Jayven, has the Hull family left? If not, we may have to agree to this marriage for now and wait for your father to come back to explore other options.”
“The Neal family’s daughter is not so easily bartered!” Braydon frowned, expressing his dissatisfaction with his second aunt. He stated, “The daughter of the Neal family won’t be sacrificed for any political marriage.”
Sapphire felt a sting in her nose, and lightning flashed in the corners of her eyes.
Since the incident at the Neal family, she and Jayven had faced immense pressure from the outside world.
They now realized the difficulties their father encountered while supporting the Neal residence and mediating between the major forces of the South Pole Island.
Karen was immediately enraged and reprimanded him, “You have no right to speak here. Do you know the crisis the Neal residence is facing?”
Braydon ignored her, recognizing that arguing would serve no purpose. His only concern was his younger brother and sister, who shared the blood of the Neal family.
As for Karen, despite being his second aunt, she remained an outsider in Braydon’s heart.
Growing up alongside Braydon, Skylar too regarded Karen as an outsider.
Braydon then asked, “Who has been bothering you guys lately?” addressing Jayven.
“Grandpa is in a tough spot. All the big shots are restless, eager to occupy the 16th ruin,” replied Sapphire, her eyes reflecting stubbornness.
“It’s all my fault. I’m too weak. I couldn’t even protect the ruins left behind by my grandfather,” Jayven said right after.
“The Neal family shouldn’t be bullied by outsiders,” calmly stated Braydon.
He and Skylar knew how to handle the situation.
To intimidate the influential families, they needed to establish their might and resort to drastic measures.
On the South Pole Island, strength commanded respect, and if you were weak, you’d be bullied.
The expansive Neal residence had no shortage of strong pillars.
