Section 85: The Old Hero Saves America
Chapter 85: ‘Old’ Heroes Save the Beauty
Without any nonsense, the boy pulled out his sword and killed it. However, it was obvious that although the old mage had not entered the holy realm at that time, it was not as good as this little guy who was only 20 years old!
Moreover, the old wizard is not a good man. He is used to being domineering in the Griffin Kingdom. When he suddenly saw a guy running out to disturb his good mood, he was furious and could not bear it? A few lightning flashes of lightning in his hand turned the poor guy into a roasted pig. If the child hadn't had a very good family background and had a lot of protective magic jewelry on his body, he would have to die on the spot. But even so, he was seriously injured on the spot and would have to lie on for at least a few months to recover.
However, although the old master was so good at beating, he also stabbed the hornet's nest! After all, he is Ruili's serious fiancé. When you sleep, his wife beat him half to death. This would be too much to deceive people? If ordinary people or some nobles in the Griffin Kingdom, with the power of the Stephen family, they can naturally settle it. But the problem is that they are the great nobles of the Empire of Light, and during this period, they are involved in the relationship between the two countries, so they naturally cannot be taken lightly.
There was no need for the Light Empire to protest, so the old mage's father came to the door to apologize in person. Not only did he compensate him for a large amount of money, but he also ordered the old mage to apologize and directly announced that he would be banned from the old mage for five years!
You should know that the old master's father was also a very prestigious Dharma Saint back then, and his status was the same as that of the current old master, so his sincerity was enough. Moreover, generally speaking, nobles would not beat and scold children, and at most they would be confined. However, for ordinary mistakes, confined only lasted for a few months. Like the old master, it took five years at once, which was indeed a very high-standard punishment.
Looking at the old monk's father's face, and the king of the Griffin Kingdom also came forward to apologize, it was equivalent to giving him enough face, and the person could barely endure it. The poor child came to see his wife excitedly, but was beaten up and lay back miserably. That look was really pitiful. For a moment, all the human nobles almost sympathized with him, and the old monk became a very sinister person.
However, the matter was not over yet. Ruili, the woman who caused trouble, was eventually taken back by her family. Half a year later, the old wizard who was confined to the magic tower received a letter from Ruili. This letter was sent by Ruili's good friend, and the current method of fire, Santa Luna, personally.
After Ruili had an accident, Luna went to the Empire of Light to visit her. She had squandered a lot of effort to meet the poor Ruili. At this time, Ruili was imprisoned by her family in a stone tower because she almost caused disputes between the two countries. She could only drink water and eat bread all day long. Her father told her very seriously that if the man's resentment could not be completely eliminated, she would be imprisoned to death alone.
However, Ruili did not blame the old master for this. The letter she brought to the old master was very short. To be precise, there was only one sentence, "I'm sorry, I couldn't save our children! I love you and never regret it!"
After receiving the letter, the old mage burst into tears. At that moment, his heart was completely occupied by this woman thousands of miles away. He would die of all the bullshit family dignity and relations between the two countries! That night, the old mage resolutely sneaked out of the magic tower and took in a few treasures in stock by his father.
A month later, the old mage did something that shocked the whole continent. He entered the Guangming Capital alone and snatched her out of Ruili's house. In fact, this is not to say how capable the old mage is, but the main reason is that people deliberately waterproof. After all, Ruili has a good reputation. Although she was punished, it was entirely because of the family's face. In fact, many family elders love her very much. So when the old mage rushed in, the masters of the family were simply responding to the story and even deliberately guiding the way, otherwise, the old mage would definitely be there.
As for other masters of the Light Empire, they would not be able to go out easily. Even the people from Ruili's own family don't care about it. So isn't their actions meant that they were meddling with rats? Apart from offending Ruili's family for nothing, there is no benefit at all. Who would be foolish?
Moreover, Lao Xie's father also had many friends in the Empire of Light, and he secretly made efforts in it and deliberately adjusted the guard power of the imperial capital, which made the old mage's feat successful.
However, not everyone supports the old mage, especially Ruili's fiancé, whose child's fiancée was hooked up by the old mage, and the child was beaten to death by the old mage. He still had to swallow his anger. Can this be a good feeling? So they had been full of anger in their hearts, but this time the old mage dared to enter the imperial capital to grab people. Isn't this obvious slap them? You know, no matter what, Ruili is still their nominal daughter-in-law now!
So he shouted that Ruili's future father-in-law, the father of her fiancé, a holy-level light knight, followed the old wizard and the others' escape route. After all, he was a local snake, and the old wizard was dragged down by Ruili, so of course it was impossible to escape.
However, the old mage is a responsible person after all. Facing the strong man he was chasing, he knew he would lose his opponent, and as a mage, he challenged the seventh-level holy knight to fight life and death. The condition was to let Ruili have a way of life.
Perhaps it was out of the arrogance of a master, or perhaps the other party really looked down on Ruili anymore. In short, he agreed to not pursue Ruili's fault no matter what the result of the duel was, and agreed to terminate the engagement and give her a free body.
So, under this situation, the old mage and the Paladin who had been famous for decades started a desperate battle. The battle process was very dramatic. At the beginning, the old mage was no match for others at all. After all, he was only at the peak of level 6. However, after he fell to the ground, Ruili's heart-wrenching crying inspired him, and the old guy actually advanced at that critical moment.
You should know that the level 6 master and the level 7 master are not the same concept. The strength of the two is very different, and it is not something that ordinary people can overcome. Among the hundreds of mages, there are only a few who can advance, which shows how difficult it is. However, once you advance, your combat power will increase exponentially.
If the level six mage and the warrior of the same level can still be considered a draw, then the winning rate of the mage after level seven will increase to more than 70%. Although the old mage has only advanced and is injured first, the opponent has no need to be inferior in terms of strength. If nothing unexpected happens, this battle should be a loss-making situation. But the problem is that when the old mage came, he stole several treasures collected by his father and used them at the most critical moment of the battle, and successfully killed the opponent. Although he himself was scarred, he had won and successfully advanced to the Dharma Saint.
However, although the old mage successfully won the duel, it also offended the entire people of the Light Empire at the same time. Although the subordinates of the family kept the promise of the duel and did not make things difficult for the old mage and the other two, this incident still aroused great anger from the upper class of the Light Empire.
After all, the person who died was a powerful sanctuary. Every country has antiques as treasures, or a parent of a noble family with a noble status. He died unjustly in the hands of a junior. Of course, the Empire of Light is not happy. It would be fine if you snatch your wife away, but you dare to kill people. Isn’t this equivalent to snatching the Empire of Light in public? It’s also too arrogant!
So after receiving the news, the senior officials of the Light Empire were furious and immediately sent experts to chase after him. Soon, they captured the extremely injured old mage and Ruili alive. They also sent a letter to the old mage's father and the emperor of the Griffin Kingdom, asking them to express their attitude.
It was not until this time that the father of the old master who was in seclusion and practicing realized that his son had run away and caused such a big disaster. He was so angry that he didn't piss him to death. But he had to take care of it even if he was angry? After all, this is his own son, and he was particularly present. He became a holy land only after 80 years, and his future is promising!
In desperation, the old wizard's father personally went to the Empire of Light on behalf of himself and the emperor of the Griffon Kingdom. He made some money to calm down his anger. Then he had a secret contact with the man's family and promised him some unknown conditions, but in exchange for his understanding. It was obviously a heavy bleeding.
In the end, the old master was released, but this guy still refused to leave. He said, "Either take away two living people or take away my body, you can do it yourself!"
The old mage's father was almost angry to death by him, but there was nothing he could do? His son was over 80 years old, not a child, but a powerful man in the holy realm, so he must have a say. In desperation, the old mage's father had to go to Ruili's family again, and he didn't know how much the price this guy spent, but he actually took Ruili away.
However, after this incident, Ruili was officially famous by her family and her surname was taken back. So until now, she only had a name, but no last name.
