My Five Masters Are Way Too Beautiful - Chapter 8

Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio

There were piles of potions, and they were all of extremely high purity. Even a tier 5 apothecary would not be able to refine so many of such high purity.

Could it be that the young mayor had snatched some elder’s interspatial ring? 

Liszt and Evelyn looked at each other, having the same suspicion.

 

Moreover, the young mayor had also said that he would also provide the potions for breaking through to tier 4. Did this mean that the young mayor also had tier 4 Breakthrough Potion?

The value of this potion was vastly different from that of a tier 3 one. A tier 3 one would cost at most 20,000, while a tier 4 Breakthrough Potion would cost at least several times that amount.

What had the young mayor gone through in the past few years?

The two of them had many questions.

After each of the guards took the Breakthrough Potion that they needed, they all left in high spirits.. There was still a small portion of the medicine left on the ground, which was kept by Liszt.

“Alright, that’s all I have. You’re all dismissed, good night,” Laylen said to them.

After that, he left on his own. He returned to the room that he had left behind even after walking for a long time.

Lying on the bed, after reading the information in his hands, he closed his eyes. Instantly, his breathing became much smoother.

At the same time, in a certain building in Vader City, the hall was brightly lit. There were five or six middle-aged men sitting around a round table.

Each of them was exuding a magical aura.

One of the men, whose entire body was covered in a black robe, so that his face could be kept hidden, said, “A total of fifteen disciples of the Shadow Church have been killed today.”

?!

As soon as he said this, the others immediately became interested and looked over.

This man whose face could not be seen was the Archbishop of the Shadow Church — Shadow.

He was of tier 4 strength.

The reason why such a person would cooperate with Creed was that Creed had promised him power after Nelly had been overthrown. He would be granted a year’s worth of mining rights for the magic stone mines around Vader City.

As for the others, such as the gold-tier adventurer Charles Brian, the mercenary Captain Roy Stanley, the Duke family, and the Andre family…

They had all received promises of wealth from Creed as well.

“Who did it?” The mercenary Captain Roy asked.

He was an expert who was good at using fire magic. Although his magic was not infused with poison like the flame poison spider, it was still quite powerful among those of the same tier.

Shadow opened his mouth and said, “According to the adventurer who reported it, it was Laylen.”

“Laylen?” A trace of doubt flashed in their eyes.

Duke asked uncertainly, “Are you talking about Laylen Vader?”

“That’s right, it’s him,” Shadow nodded to confirm.

Creed spoke, “Laylen, Nelly’s son. He showed no magical talent when he was six. When he was twelve, he ran away from home and completely disappeared. Now you’re telling me that the one who killed your followers was this trash?”

Shadow shook his head. “I really don’t know either.”

Creed asked again, “What are the tiers of the disciples who were killed?”

Shadow said, “There were disciples of both tiers 1 and 2. According to what the adventurer said, Laylen didn’t even make a move. He just slammed the table, and the big sword beside his table flew up and killed all my disciples.”

Creed narrowed his eyes, and a sharp glint flashed in them. He said, “It is very likely that he has learned some kind of sword control magic and is now able to kill a peak tier 2 very easily. He is probably quite strong.”

“However, even if he is a genius, in just six years’ time, he would only at most be able to cultivate to peak tier 2. It is still not enough to pose a threat to us.”

Hearing Creed’s words, everyone present felt relieved.

The name of Laylen Vader had spread throughout the entire northern Borodin Kingdom. Even if he could cultivate magic now, he probably isn’t even tier 3.

At this time, the mercenary group leader Duke asked, “Grand knight, when will Ang Li return from the Magic Academy?”

Ang Li, the son of the grand knight, was a genius-like existence. It was also partially because of Ang Li that they were willing to work together with Creed to deal with the mayor.

Ang Li had passed the trial of the Imperial Academy of Magic and had successfully become the disciple of a powerful professor.

One had to know that although Ang Li had only entered one of the branches of the academy in the Borodin Kingdom, the Imperial Academy of magic was highly respected in the entire Eastern Continent.

Hearing everyone ask about this matter, Creed said, “My son has just become the disciple of a professor and doesn’t have much influence as of now. Attention will only be placed on him after he breaks through to tier 4. Therefore, if we want to kill Nelly now, we can only rely on the few of us here.”

The moment these words were spoken, the experts present were disappointed.

From their point of view, if Ang Li could bring his professor here, it would give them an absolute advantage.

That was because his professor was of tier 5, an extraordinary cultivator, and with his power, killing a tier 4 expert would be a piece of cake.

Creed snorted coldly, “You don’t have to worry. With my son’s talent, he would only need at most two years to break through to tier 4.”

“In addition, the poison that Nelly has been poisoned with is a mixture of the blood of the flame poison spider king and the other flame poisons. The poison is extremely potent, and can easily kill a tier 4 expert. Unless they can find high-purity tier 4 extinguishing fluid, there’s no cure for this poison.”

“The mayor’s residence is surrounded by our people. Kill anyone who comes out.”

“As for the tier 4 potion, it can only be found in prosperous places like the Kingdom and is very expensive. If we surround the mayor’s mansion, nobody can even leave. Where can they buy medicine from?”

“Nelly Vader will definitely die. Perhaps he has already died from the poison.”

Hearing Creed’s assurance, the few of them felt relieved.

In other words, Nelly was already dead.

The next morning, Laylen had arrived early. He went to take a look at his father, the mayor, who was still in a coma.

Liszt was sitting at the head of the bed. When he saw Laylen, his eyes lit up. “Young mayor, you’re here.”

“How’s the situation?”

Liszt smiled and said, “Thanks to your potion, the mayor’s condition has improved a lot. He’ll probably wake up in two or three days.”

“That’s good. I’ll be going out for a while,” Laylen said.

Liszt instructed, “Young mayor, please be careful.”

Laylen only smiled at Liszt’s instructions. It was not like it was hell outside. What was there to be careful about? In the past few years, what kind of danger had he not experienced?

Laylen quickly left the mayor’s mansion and walked all the way out. Not long after, he sensed that someone was following behind him.

As expected, the mayor’s mansion was constantly under surveillance.

Laylen took a few turns and finally turned into an alley.

The moment he turned into the alley, his facial appearance immediately changed from a teenager to that of a middle-aged man.

Not only did his face change, but the aura emanating from him was also completely different.

He had become a completely different person.
