Chapter 786: Chapter 786_1

"Tell Grandpa, I’m going out! Also, gather all the guards at the mansion’s gate, I’m heading to the Dark Empire!"

Whether Yan Ling was a woman or not, she had helped me greatly.

Now that she was in trouble, how could I just stand by and watch?

Selena decided to marshal all of Leo’s forces to rescue her.

But even before she could step out of the villa, she was intercepted by Old Master Leo.

Selena knew that the appearance of Old Master Leo meant he intended to stop her, she took the initiative to speak first.

"Grandpa, I’m going to save someone, don’t try to stop me!"

Old Master Leo sighed, "I wanted you to go to the study to discuss matters concerning Wesley! I never expected you to act so impulsively, wanting to head to the Dark Empire with your men upon hearing the news. Do you understand what it means to march into the Dark Empire now?"

Selena spoke with a stern face: "I know! If I break into the Dark Empire with my men now, it means declaring war on the Dark Empire!"

"Now that you’re aware, why would you still do this? Are you not afraid?"

Old Master Leo, leaning on his cane, seemed to have aged more than a decade.

A lump formed in Selena’s throat, she nearly burst into tears.

Opposing the Dark Empire meant her family could face annihilation at any moment.

How could she not be afraid?

But Yan Ling, a woman, could offend both the Dark Empire and the Underground Emperor for her sake.

As the future leader of the Leo Family, how could she show weakness?

Selena held back her tears and said to Old Master Leo seriously: "Grandpa, I’m afraid! But I’m more afraid that Wesley might truly be dead."

Old Master Leo helplessly shook his head, although he greatly valued Wesley’s abilities, if Wesley was truly dead, how could he put all his hopes on a dead man?

Selena’s stance worried Old Master Leo a lot.

He feared that Selena would risk the entire Leo family for a dead man!

"Selena, you..."

"Grandpa, I know what you want to say. You don’t want me to risk the future of our family for someone who may already be dead. But grandpa, if it weren’t for Wesley’s support, the Leo family wouldn’t exist today! How can we just stand by because he might be dead?"

"This..." Old Master Leo was at a loss for words.

Selena looked sorrowful, recalling her past interactions with Wesley, though they seemed unbearably awkward now.

But without Wesley, how would she muster the courage to bear the fate of her entire family?

"Sigh! I can’t talk you out of it, are you really that fond of him?"

The old man wanted to persuade Selena to give up!

He greatly appreciated Wesley.

But he too had his selfish needs.

His one and only granddaughter couldn’t be held back by a dead man, could she?

Selena nodded her head, then shook it.

The old man was completely confused.

What did she mean by nodding and shaking her head?

Seeing the old man’s puzzled expression, she said, "Grandpa, it’s not that I like Wesley, it’s a matter of faith! Wesley taught me to become a qualified heir. Without her, I would just be a helpless young lady who cries at every adversity!"

"It does have something to do with him, but it is mainly because you’ve made efforts!"

The old man did not want his granddaughter to belittle herself.

But Selena disagreed, "No, she taught me a lot! She showed me that as a girl, as long as I have aspirations, I can create my own world through hard work! Grandpa, don’t you want me to be fearless in the face of difficulties? There are difficulties right in front of me now, I’m not afraid, I want to overcome them. Wesley is my faith, she can’t die, otherwise, the confidence I’ve just built up will collapse. You wouldn’t want the future of the Leo family to be controlled by a good-for-nothing, would you?"

Old Master Leo looked at the determined young woman in front of him, and suddenly he felt somewhat unfamiliar.

Unbeknownst to him, the little princess he had devotedly doted on had truly grown up!

And all this indeed had to be credited to the boy named Wesley!

"Hahaha...You’re truly deserving of being the future inheritor of the Leo family, you should possess such courage. I was originally worried that you were too soft-hearted and would falter at crucial moments, but now I can finally rest assured I can hand over the family to you! Go, go bring back the man you love!"

After saying that, Old Master Leo took off a ring and handed it to Selena.

Seeing this ring, Selena’s eyes revealed her shock.

This ring had the power to command the Jingwei of the Leo family!

By giving this ring to her, it essentially meant that he was endorsing all her decisions.

"Grandpa, I can’t take this ring. Jingwei is Leo’s trump card, we can’t employ it recklessly!"

Old Master Leo nonchalantly said: "If the heir gets into trouble, what do we need these Jingwei for? Go on!"

Upon hearing his words, Selena accepted the ring, vowing solemnly, "Grandpa, I promise I’ll return safely!"

Old Master Leo nodded his head, reminding her, "Be careful. If Wesley is willing to come back with you, I’ll find a way to get you two together! It doesn’t matter if he likes men, you’re so beautiful, I’m sure you can make him change his mind."

At these words, Selena’s face showed a hint of embarrassment.

She turned her head, solemnly saying: "Grandpa, the truth is... Wesley is a woman!"

Old Master Leo was petrified on the spot!

What had he just heard?

Could it be that his age had affected his hearing, causing him to mishear?

Fearing that her grandfather would change his mind, Selena quickly withdrew from the scene with her people.

You can’t wrap fire in paper!

Sooner or later, Grandpa would discover Wesley’s true identity.

Instead of letting him hear it from someone else, she might as well tell him herself.

That way, he might be a bit more accepting!

With mixed feelings, Selena led a group of people on their journey to the Dark Empire.

On the other hand, the aristocrats in Sicily, who had long submitted to the Dark Empire, showed a starkly contrasting attitude.

Normally, any disturbances in the Dark Empire would immediately prompt these empire’s lapdogs to step forward and help!

Strangely enough, not only were these aristocrats silent, but they also secluded themselves behind closed doors.

It seemed as if they were afraid of getting dragged into the affairs of the Dark Empire!

But their fear wasn’t unfounded.

Sicily was too small!

Nothing could stay hidden!

Any significant movements in the vast Dark Empire naturally couldn’t escape their ears.

A powerful Advance Level Superpower User had appeared in the Dark Empire’s territory.

Similarly, the Underground Emperor had also mobilized troops towards the Dark Empire.

Any of these people could easily slaughter an entire gang of them.

Faced with such formidable opponents, what could the idle, sly aristocrats, who only knew how to enjoy life and exert their influence, do besides hiding like grandsons?

Should they go out and volunteer to be cannon fodder?

These cunning aristocrats were well aware that stepping forward to aid the Dark Empire now would cost them their lives.

But if they waited until the dust settled and the Dark Empire won, at most they’d just lose some money as a form of appeasement.

Compared to their lives, money was dirt!

So, it was best if they just quietly hid first!

...

Selena had expected her rescue mission to be full of obstacles.

Surprisingly, she discovered upon arrival that her path was completely unobstructed.

She then realized that it wasn’t just the cowardly aristocrats, even the people of the Dark Empire started to act like tortoises hiding in their shells.

Selena was worried.

It seemed that the Dark Empire might have encountered significant difficulties in-house, as they were too caught up to pay attention to other matters!

The convoy rapidly entered the center of the Dark Empire.

Upon seeing the decimated ruins of the lab, Selena’s face darkened.

Just as she was about to command her people to approach the core area, a group of fully armed men surrounded them.

On alert, Selena immediately raised her family’s Clan Badge.

However, as soon as these men recognized the Clan Badge on their banners, they granted passage immediately.

Seeing this, Selena became even more anxious.

Could there be some trickery involved?

She was slightly worried that this might be a trap specifically targeted at the Leo Family.

But recalling the current situation of her family, she thought she might be overreacting.

Leo’s Home was facing a serious crisis, even without meddling from others.

Were they really worth such a complicated and elaborate scheme?

When Selena and her team arrived at the lab, they were stunned.

The Underground Emperor’s troops were neatly amassed near the ruins.

Additionally, another group had also managed to occupy a significant area.

The helicopters parked on the lawn alone were intimidating enough.

What on earth was going on?

These two forces obviously weren’t on the same team, so why were they both gathered there?

Moreover, she hadn’t seen anybody else from the Dark Empire on her way there.

Had they all been scared off by these people?
