Divine Emperor of Death
chapter-255

At the entrance of the small residence, Natalya was shocked!

Just before her little sister could leave her gaze or the street, some people stealthily came behind her and silently placed a strange paper on her back as they attacked!

She immediately recognized who they were, especially when she saw the old man.

Milos Astoria! An elder of the Astoria Family, and also a High-Level Earth Grade Inscription Master!

Inscription Masters were highly recognized although not to the level of Alchemists, they still held authority as they possessed the ability to make inscriptions that enhanced the ability of various items.

There were many types of inscription masters and the strange paper; the strange paper he used was nothing but the inscription he made; a type of seal. He was a person that her main family highly valued, even more than the other elders!

Even though he only had a cultivation of Peak-Level Revolving Core Stage, his achievements in the realm of inscriptions were enough to give him the title of elder!

Fiora looked behind as she clenched her teeth in anger, "Cowards, you don't dare to fight a woman face to face?! Even going so far as to seal my cultivation!"

Milos laughed, "I can't underestimate a genius after all. Besides, it's your fault for not paying attention to your surroundings."

The other three middle-aged men also laughed with him, looking at her pitiful figure in disdain.

"Then again, you and your parents tried to abandon the main family members by hiding away at someplace? You're all a disgrace!" Milos uttered in an angry tone and pointed at the residence, "You guys even dared to sell the property without asking for the permission of the main family!?"

*Bam!~*

"Ahhh!" Fiora shouted in pain as she flew and planted her face on the surface. She spat a mouthful of blood in the process.

Milos came behind her and lifted her head up by dragging her hair, "Where are your parents?"

"You're all courting death!" Fiora gritted her teeth, her eyes were red with rage.

Milos just smiled, absolutely looking down on her with contempt.

"You think you can get away with this!? The city guards will arrest you in any moment now!" Fiora spat back at him, her eyes shooting daggers.

Milos grinned sinisterly and asked with a teasing expression on his face, "Fiora, do you see any guards around you?"

Fiora's heart skipped a beat. She instantly wondered why there were no guards who showed up to save her, but now she understood.

"Unfortunately, the guards also need to live their lives, so you can not blame them alright..." Milos laughed as he shook his head.

"You bribed them?" Fiora questioned him in disbelief, failing to think that they would go this far.

"Ha! Little girl, all I had to do was give them some benefits to make them turn a blind eye to this situation. Of course, we can't kill you, otherwise, they'll forget about those benefits and do their job as guards, after all, they don't want to lose their lives either."

Fiora's face turned pale. She had disguised herself, came out sneaking without informing her parents.

Realizing that she had no way to contact them, her face quickly revealed an expression of panic.

Mustering every bit of strength she had, she activated her battle aura and shoved his hand away from her head.

Getting caught off-guard, Milos got pushed off a few steps back.

"Old fart! You're only 150 years old, yet you look already old! Just die!" Fiora shouted as she slashed with a dagger.

Milos's face went ugly as he heard the insult! He instantly retreated another few steps back and dodged the incoming blade.

His palm formed a wind gale before directly blasting it at her.

"Arghh!" Fiora shouted in pain as she got blasted away! The impact caused her to fly towards the residence!

"Get her, we're leaving." Milos held his anger in check as he said.

He didn't forget to hold back, otherwise, this one gale of his would be enough to slice her into critically wound her.

That said, the gale he had launched managed to injure her and cleave her clothes at some parts, exposing her pale skin.

In front of the entrance of the residence, Natalya watched her sister getting beaten without doing anything!

When she saw her sister getting cleaved by the gale, her eyes turned bloodshot!

Even though she resented her little sister, this wasn't something she could keep watching without doing anything no matter what.

Just when she took a step forward and was about to interfere, Davis came behind her while placing his hand on her shoulders and shook his head, indicating that she shouldn't interfere.

Natalya's body trembled!

Just when she was about to plead him to let her go save her sister, she widened her eyes as she saw Davis disappear from her view!

The very next moment, he appeared in front of her again but to her astonishment, she saw a battered figure on the ground.

She widened her eyes as she silently muttered, "Fiora..."

Having no sense of what happened in a split second, Fiora looked at the masked black-robed figures in confusion.

A moment later, she realized that someone of these two had saved her.

"You!" A shout came from outside the residence.

Milos came in front of the entrance but didn't dare to enter. Mostly because of the rules of the city, plus, he could see how fast the black-robed man was and estimated that he wouldn't be a match even if he fought.

He uttered with a humiliated expression on his face, "Sir, I have no idea about who you are, but interfering in the matters of the Astoria Family doesn't seem to be appropriate, no?"

Davis turned to look at him, his voice deep, "And you're bullying a younger generation in broad daylight? Why don't you find this appropriate?"

"Sir, this matter doesn't concern you! Give her back and we from the Astoria Family will let bygones be bygones."

Davis let out a sigh as he stepped back and bowed slightly, "We'll let bygones be bygones then..."

Milos grinned as he thought that his speech had been successful. Even so, he didn't let his guard down and signaled the men behind him to follow him as he walked into the residence.

Natalya panicked, not understanding what her benefactor was doing! Fiora had gone pale but wasn't surprised by the outcome.

A lone man with a slightly stronger cultivation wouldn't dare to offend a family that had equal prowess to him.
