Magic Doctor CEO Lady's Humble Husband (Fade Chen)

Chapter 3320



Therefore, in the next few days, the two big families, both the Loh and Gu family, mobilized an unprecedented force and sent a large team to enter the forest to search for Fade and Evelyne's whereabouts.

However, after searching the entire forest for three days, the two families still could not find Fade.

At the same time, Tiernan and Talha brought news from the strange relic respectively. The tomb was shaking even more vigorously and they had to speed up to find Fade and snatch the Ice Soul Pearl. That was the only way for them to open the tomb and search for the treasures.

Otherwise, if the ancient tomb continues shaking, the entire relic would experience great changes and no one knew how long they would have to wait before getting another chance to enter the strange relic again.

After receiving the orders, the two families used almost 80 percent of their forces and put all their efforts into searching for Fade.

The entire South Van City was shocked and surprised to see such a large-scale movement.

Quite a few had already vaguely suspected that something strange was happening. If it was just purely because of the Ice Soul Pearl, the two great families did not have to take it so seriously.

During that time, related rumors quickly started to spread in South Van City.

After searching for another three more days, they still couldn't find any trace of Fade.

At that moment, the two families were really becoming a little anxious.

In the hall of the Loh family's house, Tiernan, Ezekiel, Talha, and Devin were sitting in the middle with serious expressions on their faces.

"We've searched for nearly a week, but there's still no news. I don't think we should wait any longer." Tiernan was the first to speak.

Talha, who was almost the same age as him, said, "The forest is too large and also at the border of the strange relic. If he had escaped into the strange relic, even the manpower of both our families would not be enough."

Tiernan said in a low voice, "So, are you saying that we are out of ideas right now? We have to find another way then."

"What way?" Devin asked.

Tiernan did not answer but looked at Talha instead and said, "What do you think?"

Talha tapped his finger lightly on the armrest. He seemed to be hesitant, but after thinking for a while, his gaze changed and revealed a hint of relentlessness. He then nodded and said, "Okay!"

"Okay, let's get ready." Tiernan said.

Devin heard their words, he was confused and couldn't help asking, "Uncle Talha, what are you both talking about?"

Ezekiel's face was also filled with curiosity, "Uncle Tiernan, do you have other ideas in mind?"

Tiernan said in a low voice, "Since that kid wants to keep hiding, then well force him to come out."

"Force him to come out!"

Hearing these words, Ezekiel and Devin immediately understood something and their expressions changed. "Uncle Tiernan, what you're saying is that well take someone as a hostage and force Fade to come out?" Tiernan and Talha nodded at the same time and said solemnly, "That's the best way we could think of at the moment." Then Tiernan ordered, "Ezekiel, Natalia is still in your hands right? You can get prepared now and let the news out." Talha also looked at Devin and said, "Talmon and Yarrow have a close relationship with that kid. We can use them." Devin frowned and said in a deep voice, "Uncle Talha, I don't think this is a good idea, they are originally members of the Gu family. If we threaten that guy with our own people, I don't think he'll take the bait."NôvelDrama.Org exclusive content.

"If we were to spread this news out, our Gu family's reputation in South Van City would not look good."

Talha said coldly, "Talmon and Yarrow helped outsiders and betrayed the family. They are sinful and shouldn't be forgiven anyway. If we can take this advantage and catch that kid, we can even spare their lives."

"As for the opinions of others, they are not worth mentioning compared to the tomb's treasures."

"This..." Devin was still hesitant, but in the end, he nodded and agreed, "Yes, Uncle Talha, I know what to do."

Then, Talha stood up and left.

The next day, Natalia, Talmon, and Yarrow were captured by the Loh and Gu family respectively and were being judged as traitors.

In the end, all three of them were sentenced to death and would be executed in the next week.

This news swiftly spread throughout the entire South Yan City. At the same time, countless people brought the news to various villages around the city as well.

Those who knew a little more about this matter immediately understood as soon as the news came out.

The Loh and Gu family were using this to threaten Fade.

For a moment, relevant discussions began to stir up.

Some people said that the Loh and Gu family were being too mean. They even joined hands to deal with a boy, such a big joke.

Of course, there were also some who thought that people like Fade, who was a lowly peasant from the lower world, deserved to be punished.

Of course, this threat had also triggered all sorts of events.

Talmon and Yarrow weren't in a bad condition. After all, they were members of the Gu family, so the discussions were only within the family. However, Talha and Devin managed to suppress it as much as possible.

Natalia, on the other hand, caused a huge debate.

After all, Nataļja was a famous four star alchemist in South Van City. She was also a senior of the

Alchemy School at the South V

Academy. Adding on to the fact that there were quite a few experts and dignitaries who usually worked with her, it naturally caused quite a commotion.

The group of teachers and students of the South Van Academy's Alchemy School opposed after hearing the news of the Loh family.

However, in the end, Eshaan, the

assistant dean of the academy personally gave a statement and

said that Natalia was just protecting her own disciple and this had nothing to do with the South Van

Academy. Therefore, they should not

befacing any of the consequences.

Then, some families and agencies from the Myriad Treasures Hall who had worked with Natalia changed their statements after Ezekiel visited them personally. They said that Natalia deserved the punishment and should be given the death sentence.

Even the mayor stayed silent and didn't say a word at all. It was like tacitly approved of this matter.

In the Mayor Mansion, Masie, who

had just come back from recovery,

hurriedly went to her father's room after hearing the news. She came up and questioned, "Dad, you're mayor. Are you really going to ignore and do nothing about Natalia's matter?"

Looking at his daughter's big reaction, Ashwin said, "This is very complicated. You shouldn't intervene in this matter and stop asking." "How is this complicated? Isn't this just the Loh family using Natalia's life to threaten Fade just so they could get the Ice Soul Pearl? Anyone could see that the Loh family has gone too far."

"Dad, you're the mayor of this city, you should maintain the fairness of the city. How can you just sit by and do nothing about this? How do you think people would think of you as a mayor in the future?"

Ashwin's expression changed after listening to Masie's series of questions.

Finally, he sighed and said, "Masie, it's not as simple as you think. It's not that I don't want to get involved, but I can't."

"Dad, how is that possible? You're the mayor of the city, an official appointed by the Taeyoon Domain. How can you not get involved?" Masie asked. Ashwin sighed and said, "The Loh and Gu Family are very decisive this time, especially the Loh family. Not only did Ezekiel take action, but even Tiernan and Amman expressed their stance to me in person."

"So what? Even if the Loh family brought three of their venerable masters of the Fetus Refine Realm, do you think they would really dare to attack the Mayor Mansion?" Masie asked.

Ashwin replied, "They wouldn't dare, but the Mayor Mansion couldn't do anything to control them as well!"

"How could that be? The Mayor Mansion represents the official power of the Taeyoon Domain, how could they be unable to control them? Could it be that the Loh family is trying to revolt?" Masie asked with a frown.

Ashwin said slowly, "Of course not. The reason why I can't control them is very simple. The Loh family built a good relationship with the authorities and I was directly given orders not to interfere in this matter."

"How did this happen?" Masie felt unbelievable.

Ashwin replied, "Tiernan went to the capital city some time ago and found Mr. Yoon, who was the Taeyoon Guard."

"Mr. Yoon will soon lead the capital city's Taeyoon Guards to our Cloud River City in the name of conducting an inspection and they'll take charge of this matter."

"The Taeyoon Guard was personally developed by the governor. It is one of the most powerful armies in the capital city. Whether in terms of power or level, they are even more superior compared to a city guard like me."

"When that time comes, Mr. Yoon will lead the Taeyoon Guard to take over the matters of South Yan City. What do you think I can do by then?"

After listening to her father's story, Masie was also stunned and did not know what to say.

From what she recalled, although her father's City Guards, which represented the Taeyoon Domain, had some minor problems in most aspects, it was fair and just in general and they did protect everyone's interests.

However, it seemed that she was too naive to realize the true cruelty of the world.

Once true interests were involved, and one's status was high enough, some of the venerable masters and rules would just become trash and tossed out of their minds.

Right now, what the Loh family did was clearly against the rules. However, because they had established a good relationship with Mr. Yoon of the Taeyoon Guard, they were able to do this openly and rightfully.

This made Masie feel that one of her beliefs had been destroyed and she was stepped on by others. It was hard for her to accept it at that moment.

Ashwin understood what his daughter was thinking. He sighed and comforted her, "Masie, at the end of the day, this is still a world where strength is respected and prioritized."

"To a certain extent, rules can restrict most people. However, once one's strength reaches a certain level, the so-called rules will only be a piece of useless paper to these people."

"Real masters can't be restrained by rules. Only powerful strengths can restrain another powerful strength."

"Power is prioritized. This is the true rule of our Taeyoon Domain. In fact, this is the only rule in the entire Earth Yuan world."

Hearing his father's words, Masie felt an unprecedented shock and muttered, "Then, is there really no other way to save Natalia?"

Ashwin sighed. After a moment of silence, he finally said, "There is still a glimmer of hope. Natalia's old friend rushed to the Alchemist Association

after hearing the news."

"If the Alchemist Association is willing to come forward, they might be able to save Natalia."
