Chapter 1030: Chapter 260: A Kind of Jealousy Born from Fatherly Love_2

Golinny deliberately made the stairs clatter loudly as she descended.

Fei Wenli also faced Liu with a respectful salutation, wished her foster father good night, and gracefully withdrew. Only then did Liu realize that this beautiful girl was actually Mourinho’s adopted daughter. He silently thought to himself how lucky he was that he hadn’t greeted her indiscriminately just now.

"Your Majesty, did you specifically rush back here because there’s something you need to instruct us on?" Caiyu City’s Overlord Treizegar and Elder Horielle didn’t leave, instead fixing their gaze on Liu. It was apparent they were convinced that Mourinho wouldn’t have returned to Sabak just to see his children off.

"There’s nothing that needs particular attention. There was, but... I’ve decided to let it be," Liu could only play coy, to maintain some wiggle room.

"Is it still about that Richard matter?" Elder Horielle asked with a frown, "Your Majesty, if I may be so bold, I think you’re being too soft. To deal with a Beamon ruffian like the Feilengcui Lord, you must show some strong colors before he understands what politeness means!"

The Elder’s words made Gortani, who was ready to leave, unable to move a step further.

"Your Majesty! Frankly, it’s really boring to have to bring up the same demand every time Richard is mentioned. We in Caiyu City have followed your directives, trying not to conflict with them, and we’ve shown restraint, haven’t we? But what about him? The last time he hired our Medusa warriors, I still get irritated thinking about it! Can those armors bring back the lives of our Medusa soldiers?" Overlord Treizegar fumed, "I think we should teach this ruffian a lesson!"

How interesting. Liu laughed uproariously inside, amazed that his casual comment had elicited so much grumbling. It was quite amusing to hear others’ opinions of him firsthand, and now he was somewhat eager to hear what Cui Beixi had to say.

"Uncle, cousin, why bring up these old grievances? Master Puskas came looking for Jose twice, we owe him some face!" Cui Beixi couldn’t wait to speak up, "Personally, I think if we follow what Master Puskas suggests and offer the food-poison Gu to Richard, easing everyone’s relations is the best course. Richard might even return the two children. I know Richard is the type to respond to gentleness rather than force, actually he..."

"My dear sister! You’re setting your expectations for that little ruffian too high!" the Caiyu City Overlord said, shaking his head and scoffing coldly.

Liu broke out in a sweat behind his back, finding yet another secret he’d been unaware of—Cui Beixi had such a revered status in the Medusa clan—related by blood to two clan leaders!

It seemed Master Puskas didn’t rush to leave Sabak after his own tough ordeal, but rather had made another futile attempt at mediation with Mourinho.

How much more was there that he didn’t know? Liu was at a loss. He didn’t know how to join the conversation. In a situation like this, one wrong word could blow his cover, but without speaking up, how could he secure the two Medusa Witch Doctors for himself?

Liu furrowed his brow intensely, with great effort.

"The matter of the children, we will have to resolve with that ruffian lord sooner or later! If this continues, what will become of Tang Beryljenna?" Elder Horielle’s voice was angry and subdued, "I can’t bear to see Tang Beryljenna continue to be so depressed! In our Beamon history, noble feuds often led to brawls! In my opinion, it would be best to just storm in and take what we want!"

Hearing this, Liu felt distressed and guilty. The Ice Phoenix had left a very good impression on him, and he truly couldn’t bear to indirectly harm others due to his own feud with the Swan High Priest, depriving a mother of her custodial rights. This was simply too cruel, considering the Ice Phoenix’s abilities, she could definitely confront Liu head-on.

"Exactly!" blurted the Caiyu City Overlord immediately, "Gentlemen are certainly better at fighting than ruffians! Can’t our Caiyu City outfight a bunch of Beamon hooligans from Feilengcui?"

"Cousin! You say this because you haven’t seen how Feilengcui Warriors fight," Cui Beixi immediately retorted, "Hooligans? Ruffians? Go and review Richard’s combat record. He’s led his followers through several fierce battles, and in every instance, they fought with deadly earnestness, yet not a single follower was lost! Who else in the Bimon Kingdom has such a record?"

"Sister! Regarding this, His Majesty has analyzed it countless times with us, there’s no need for you to repeat it! Richard’s record of zero casualties is based on defensive battles. He waits at his leisure, benefiting from terrain and equipment! His troops, whether Mammoth Cavalry or Heavy Infantry, are limited by their size and lack sustained charge capability over long distances! If we have enough depth, or force them into a position where they have no advantage, it wouldn’t be hard to corner them to death!" Overlord Treizegar sneered coldly, "They also seriously lack Archers! If we can lure him into an open field with a smaller force, and then ambush him with three thousand Elven Bow and Arrow warriors, could he still achieve zero casualties?"

"What zero casualties! It’s nothing but skirmishes with a bunch of ragtag mercenaries and bandits. Richard has never clashed with a human elite Regular Army!" Elder Horielle also sneered, "Nico, don’t forget, Richard’s victories are largely due to an absolute advantage in Mage and religious powers, which have always been his trump card against rookies. If he encounters an equal adversary, victory won’t come so easily! Take us for example, our Mage and religious powers far exceed those of Feilengcui. Isn’t His Majesty’s magical pet just as formidable as Richard’s? If it really comes to war, I admit we may suffer heavy losses, but I believe we would certainly emerge victorious in the end, without a doubt!"
