Heavenly Opposers

Chapter 224  Chapter 223-To Another Family.

Leaving behind the messed-up ball, Azrail's group coolly left the place, not at all minding any sort of issue they might have left behind.

"That was a good touch," Yun spoke with a hint of pride as she ruffled Azrail's hair with a gentle touch. He accepted the praise with a smile as Azrail responded.

"It's just a small push for them to see the reality all of them have been denying."

His words made Raena smile as she spoke.

"It's better you did so, sometimes it's better to have your eyes brutally opened than to face the consequences of your actions later down the line."

Her words were calm and controlled, but Azrail could see more of the complex feelings rising through her, all of them being complementary and opposite of each other.

"Guess we have succeeded in getting the word out, but will you be able to get it all ready in time?" Yun asked, to which Azrail responded with a sly crooked smile.

"Don't worry about that, Nayan will make sure to get it all ready in time and soon after this we will be the first ones to hold the very first continental auction and even go forth for the greatest continental and intercontinental tournaments."

The conviction in Azrail's tone made the greed in Yun's bloom out, the group in quiet discussion with themselves soon reached out of the palace, coming out to the same landing area they came from as they gazed at the very futuristic yet beautiful chariot they arrived in.

"So let's head there, shall we?" Yun asked with a smile, her coldness going down a bit as the more familiar warmth she had bloomed out from her.

"Let's," Azrail replied, Valencia holding on to one side while Xuanyin took the other, then entered inside the chariot. The plan was for the group to travel west, to head towards a special family, which isn't as powerful as the rest but has its own powerful connections in a city.

Azrail was about to go and see his family from his mother's side, the Ai family ruling over a powerful city within the Rexion Empire. It's not as powerful as the Yun family, but it still holds its ground within the Empire and now it's the highest level of family that no one, literally no one, has the balls to mess with now, because anyone with brains had searched through all places that Azrail cares for.

And it's no secret that Azrail deeply cares for his family, whereas Yun also loves her family, it's the main reason she even married into the Yun family after all. She feared for what might happen to them if she had rejected the marriage proposal; else she never in a million years would have even gotten married.

Thus, by the law of transferring, it's not a big leap to say the fact that Azrail also deeply cares for the Ai family, and truly Azrail does, for they have done everything in their powers, almost being destroyed for them to help him when he was being hunted and wasted away. And if it wasn't for Azrail forcefully cutting off the connection by making them give up and hate, they would have continued to help him.

Azrail had to make the Ai family give up, for at that time he had led his mother to her death and he couldn't have borne the weight of having his mother's family killed too, for he loves that family, he cares for his grandfather, grandmother, and his uncles from that side, all of them being people he will be repaying with everything, he would adhere to their wishes and make them happy.

If they wish to rule this realm, then Azrail will make the Ai family the rulers over this realm, if they desire greater heights, then Azrail will make sure to get it for them, for just like Yun, they are family to him too.

"Even above that, there lies another one I can play with connected somewhere deep."

Musing at that thought, Azrail with his little group soon seated themselves in the chariot, it started on its own, responding to Azrail's command and now soon flying off from the palace, leaving it cold and dry, yet the group didn't give a shit about this as it headed towards Ailin City, a beautiful place in its own right.
