Before long, an old man and an old woman walked out together.
The grey-haired old man, wearing delicate clothes, carried himself with dignity.
However, resentment and helplessness were imprinted on his demeanor and expression.
He was in the medium stage of Astral Realm.
The old woman also looked dignified and graceful, and she was appropriately well-dressed for a woman of her stature.
It was easy to tell that even she had reached the premium stage of Imperial Realm.
"Tyson!" the old woman cried at the sight of Tyson.
"Tyson!" the old man resounded, excitement evident in his voice despite his stern demeanor.
Obviously, they were Tyson's parents.
"Father and mother, please forgive my unfilial behavior!"
Seeing the old couple, Tyson went down on his knees right away as a show of respect.
"Brother!"
A man also arrived at the stime. He almost resembled Tyson in appearance, If not for his build he would have passed for
Tyson's twin.
He was Tyson's younger brother.
Finally, the family got together. They had not seen each other in a long while and were therefore sentimentally immersed in
reminiscing over the past.
Standing afar off, Austin and his fellows didn't want to disturb the cozy atmosphere and the well-needed family time.
After an hour of catching up on each other's lives, Tyson took his parents to meet Austin.
"Uncle and aunt, I'm so glad to meet you."
Austin moved forward and gave his respects to Tyson's parents.
Tyson's heart was overwhelmed. He was full of gratitude to Austin. Rather than a nobleman, he was now just his lowly servant who
did not deserve such generous treatment.
However, Austin still treated him as a friend with dignity and respect instead of embarrassing him before his parents.
"Oh, it's very kind of you.
| know that Tyson follows your lead now. Please take care of him."
Tyson's father smiled kindly, gingerly entrusting Tyson to Austin.
Tyson didn't reveal the kind of relationship that he and Austin had, because he didn't want to break his father's heart or see the
pain it would cause to him.
Thus, the only information he gave to his father was that Austin was a man with unfathomable power and exceptional ability. As a
warrior in the premium stage of Master Realm, he was much stronger than he seemed to be.
"Let's have tea in the living room.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇt
Our house is too humble for you. Please forgive the inconvenience we have caused,"
Tyson's father said, sounding a little dismayed and his face displaying his utter embarrassment.
It was so natural for him to behave that way since he used to be honorable as the castellan of the city, while now he could only
afford to live in the shabby dwelling.
They all followed him and entered the living room of the house.
Tyson's father drank tea with Austin.
He had managed to convince Austin to sit at the head of the table.
That position was a symbol of prestige because he could tell that Austin was the leader of the people including his son.
However, Austin declined and in respect to his request, the old couple was not able to refuse his kindness, so they had to sit at the
head of the table themselves.
Austin and his fellows settled on the seats on the right hand of the table, drinking and chatting.
Austin was always not keen on refined etiquette. He disliked sophisticated manners because it made people seem unreachable and
above local folks. Furthermore, as a low-keyed man, he wasn't keen on showing off or carrying himself as if he was better than
others.
If necessary, he would always give the necessary respect that everyone deserved.
"Father, what's going on here?
Why is Tom the current castellan of the Six Master City? How could he take your place?"
Tyson blurted out after a few moments.
The old couple stiffened when they heard Tyson's inquiry.
Immediately, their eyes were overcast with grief. Their hands that were holding the tea cups trembled because of the indignation
they felt. The tea splashed all over as the hands of the older couple shook uncontrollably.
"Oh dear!" his parents exclaimed.
But soon they had their anger under control.
Taking a heavy sigh, Tyson's mother looked upset.
"Tyson, forget about it. Don't worry about our situation in the Six Master City. We will be fine.
You should follow this hero and earn your own living away from this place.
You shouldn't stay in the city any longer,"
Tyson's mother said with a distressed look on her face.
"Mother, what happened? Please letknow the truth!"
Tyson cried out.
Seeing how his parents were trying hard to hide the facts from him, he becmore agitated and expecting the worst, firmly
insisted on getting to the bottom of the matter.
"Lucius, tell me!"
Tyson yelled at his brother.
Clinching his teeth, he summoned up the courage to go against his parents’ initial wish. Lucius finally made up his mind.
"Father, brother is not a stranger. He should know that...
Lettell him," Lucius faltered
The old couple attempted to stop him from saying anything, but Lucius blurted everything in quick breaths.
Austin listened intently to Lucius' account of everything that had happened. Besides, Tyson explained the confusing things to him
from tto time.
Gradually, Austin understood the bitter story of the Lu Clan in the Six Master City.
Originally, the city was established and built by the Lu Clan.
As it was the tradition, the head of the Lu Clan took the position of the castellan.
Tyson's grandfather had three sons, Wally, Lester and Tom.
Among them, Wally and Lester were the offspring of Tyson's grandfather.
Tom who was different from the rest was picked up by accident and brought up by Tyson's grandfather.
Tom was incredibly intelligent and wise unequaled by his peers when he was a child. Moreover, he was so articulate and
entertaining to people since he always had a thousand tricks up his sleeve, which won the affection of Tyson's grandfather.
Beyond Tom's expectation, before Tyson's grandfather died, he passed the position of the castellan to Wally as the heir because he
was the firstborn son.
However, Tom was unconvinced and refused to obey the arrangement. Thus, in collusion with outsiders, he planned to contend for
the position.
Fortunately, Wally discovered his evil plan on tand expelled him from the Six Master City. From then on, nobody knew of his
whereabouts or had seen him.
However, five years ago, Tom cback to the Six Master City unexpectedly. Backed by a powerful man, he forcibly wrestled the
position of the castellan from Wally.
Since then, Wally, Tyson's father, had suffered from the oppression and bullying pelted by Tom. The situation had only gotten worse
with time.
Besides, they were not allowed to leave the city.
In other words, they were under house arrest so that Tom could keep an eye on them and oppress, torture and insult them at will.
In the past years, they had been undergoing unimaginable hardships at Tom's hands.
Bang!
Finally, understanding the deplorable conditions that his parents were living under, Tyson went mad with rage, pounding the table
under him into pieces.
"Beast!
He is a beast!
Grandfather picked him up from the ruins of garbage and raised him, while instead of returning the favor, he has even taken the
place of my father!
He has been recklessly consumed with power and greed. Such a conscienceless beast must die!
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏm
I will never let him off the hook!"
Tyson shivered with fury.
"Tyson, Tom is the full-fledged leader now, and with the help of the powerful backer, he dominates the Six Master City. We cannot
fight him. We're not able to defeat him.
Tyson, don't stir up trouble.
Since you just cback, maybe Tom hasn't noticed your whereabouts yet.
Get out of the Six Master City with your friends while you still can. Don't cback again.
Otherwise, once Tom discovers, you will lose your freedom like we did.
Hurry up, son. Prepare yourself and leave the city with Austin. Hurry up!"
Tyson's mother admonished him in a tone of helplessness.
At that moment, an unexpected guest appeared.
"Uncle, aunt, Lucius, I'm here to give you the betrothal gifts!
Ha-ha!
Lucius, if | marry your daughter as my seventh concubine, you will be my cousin and father-in-law.
This is so interesting. We will be brought even closer to each other through the marriage. What a happy ending!
Ha-ha!"
An arrogant and unscrupulous voice was heard from outside.
Suddenly, Tyson's parents and Lucius began to tremble violently while gnashing their teeth in uncontained anger, at the obnoxious
utterances made by the intruder.
The seventh wife? Cousin and father-in-law? These words were too harsh.
Even Austin was consumed with violent rage and his eyes shone fiercely at the offending intruder.
"What about Tom's cultivation base?"
Austin asked.
"Like me, he is also in the medium stage of Astral Realm, but the man behind him is an over-match in the preliminary stage of
Tribulation Realm,"
Tyson's father told Austin as dread and helplessness appeared on his face just at the mention and thought of Tom's backer.
"I see. He is in the preliminary stage of Tribulation Realm,"
Austin mused.
"Tom's family members are all wicked beasts. How dare they violate the code of ethics? They must atone for their crimes with their
lives.
Don't worry. | can handle this."
It was so bold-faced of Jamie to marry Lucius's daughter. Austin had been provoked by his violation of ethics.
