Saurun was wearing a black suit and a white shirt. His handsome appearance and noble blond hair made him the center of attention wherever he went. But careful people will find that Sauron has been too pale lately, and with dark eyes. Although he had been meticulously modified, it was hard for him to escape the eyes of the people he cared for.
In the Parkland family’s base camp, there were definitely a lot of people who had ulterior motives.
As soon as he woke up today, he was informed by the butler that old Brent wanted to see him. In the time since Saurun had been dismissed from his post in the form of the Crimson Knight, old Brent had not even glanced at his grandson once. After finding out that his grandfather wanted to see him today, Saurun thought that his bad luck had finally come to an end.
However, when he arrived at the door of the office of the 16th floor’s old Bu Jieter, the butler, Bai Ni, didn’t look too good.
“Young master, don’t say anything after you enter. Master is not in a good mood right now.” Benny whispered, and opened the office door for Sauron.
The door opened, and the loud roar of the old Bu Jieter came from inside. When Saurun heard this, his heart sank. From this battle, as long as one was not a fool, he would know that nothing good would happen. Saurun was naturally no fool. God only knew how much he wanted to turn around and leave. He did not need to take on the wrath of the old Brent. But since old Brent wanted to see him, Sauron had no choice but to force himself to walk into the office.
The door closed behind him.
Saurun looked at it and saw that it was decorated like in the old days in a huge office. Other than the head of the family, old Brent, there were three other people present.
Standing to the right of old Brent was a middle-aged man who looked very much like Sauron, except that his carefully trimmed beard made him look all the more dignified. This man was Sauron’s father, Heinz, and because of his ability, he was relied upon by old Brant as his right-hand man. In the family, he was known as Little Brent.
The older of the two men standing to the left was Sauron’s uncle, Jester. Jester had a moustache and a gloating smile. Next to him was a shy young man, Jester’s son Johansson. Although Johansson and Saurun were of the same race, he was of the Water Element and was only of the second rank. His standing in the family was far below that of Saurun, who was as dazzling as the sun.Although Saurun was addicted to drinking and sex during his rest period at home, it was not enough to make him waste his abilities. He had even thought of zero as his enemy and trained himself in order to drive away the shadow left in his heart by his berserk attitude. During the almost masochistic training, Saurun’s fire element mastery had advanced another level. He had already reached the fourth level, which also provided Saurun with an opportunity to learn an ability to advance.
However, Saurun had yet to receive the notice to return to the Blood Knight, so he had been unable to learn his ability to advance. However, he was proficient in the fire element at the fourth level, which was sufficient for him to be able to stand his ground in the clan. Moreover, he was not afraid of anyone with ulterior motives like the man who tried his best to promote his son, Johansson, to overshadow Saurun, or even the future successor of the clan.
Saurun walked up to old Brent and greeted him with the highest etiquette. Old Brent was in his seventies, and he had been in charge of the family for nearly forty years. However, as he grew older, even if he could extend his life using the genetic medicine, he could not exchange it for the energy and charm of his youth. Hence, he decided to abdicate to Sauron’s father in the next year or two, also known as little Brent.
Saurun was his favorite grandson. He even asked Hei Lin to make Saurun the next successor to the family. However, the recent events left old Brent disappointed in his grandson.
“Sauron, do you know why I called you here?”
Saurun vaguely guessed something, but he still shook his head, indicating that he didn’t know.
“Look at what you’ve done!” Old Brent could not help but shout, “As one of the most important members of the Parkland family, you can’t even kill a soldier from the wilderness. Look at the current situation, this Zero mercenary is heading straight for our family, and the Lan Qi you sent to assassinate him has already fought with him once outside of Phoenix City. However, they couldn’t kill him. Now that he and Lan Qi had entered the Death God Ridge, they didn’t have any information on them for the time being. However, those companies and bases outside have already opened their mouths to gamble on this matter. No matter who the final winner is, our family is destined to become a joke in the eyes of others! ”
“That’s right, I’m a capable nephew.” “A mere mercenary from the wilderness actually dares to challenge me, the Parkland Merchants. And the assassin you sent can’t kill him even now. Dear Sauron, our family cannot afford to lose that much face. “I’m not talking to you as an uncle. In fact, from the very beginning, you should have used absolute force to kill this mercenary and not just sent Lan Qi to assassinate him.”
Saurun cursed to himself in his heart, but on the surface he said respectfully, “I don’t want to kill this mercenary in public. What I’m afraid of is this situation that everyone knows about. However, I didn’t expect that Zero to be so troublesome. Even Lan Qi wasn’t able to kill him even with absolute confidence. This was indeed my mistake. Grandfather, I am willing to accept any punishment. ”
As a father, Hei Lin naturally had to say something for his son. He solemnly said from the side, “Respected father, in fact, Saurun’s previous judgement was not wrong. If we go against a mercenary in full force, we will only let others see us as a joke. If I were Sauron, I’d let Lange do the job. And now, more than that, I think it’s important to find out who spread the news so that the entire coastline knows about it. I am sure that the person who spread the news must have some ulterior motive, and that the most basic purpose is to undermine the prestige of our family. ”

It would be better for me and my guards to fight. If Zero can get out of Death Ridge, I promise he won’t be able to move on. Also, we can take this opportunity to let other companies know how stupid it is to provoke our family. “Because the force that I will unleash will make all the individuals or companies that have such thoughts completely lose their hope!”
A look of approval appeared in Heine’s eyes. If Sauron’s move was successful, it would indeed be more impressive for other companies in the wilderness. As for failure, Hei Lin had never thought of it.
The old man nodded, “If you want to do it, then do it beautifully. If you let this mercenary enter our clan’s territory, he will be within three thousand kilometers.” Saurun, I will consider disqualifying your father from the position of successor. ”
“I will not disappoint you, dear grandfather!” Saurun said affirmatively.
