#665 - The Marquis of Cross is broken
In the guest room of Firefly Town Castle, Freya stood in front of the window, her golden hair fluttering in the wind and scattered on her white shoulders.
At this moment, she did not bother to tidy up her hair that was messed up by the wind, but said with a look of surprise:
"That's Guanhai City, which even my father couldn't occupy! It was actually taken down by Ryan, and it only took a few days!"
Gray corrected him: "To be precise, Viscount Ryan only took one day to occupy Guanhai City, and the rest of the time was spent on traveling."
Freya couldn't help but roll her eyes at Gray when she heard this: "I know! You don't need to emphasize it here!"
"I just can't understand how Ryan could occupy Guanhai City so easily!"
She closed the window to block out the cheers outside, then paced back and forth in the room, seemingly digesting the news Gray brought.
Gray replied: "In fact, the difficulty of occupying Guanhai City is not as great as you think. The reason why the Marquis did not occupy Guanhai City is that Guanhai City is far away from Shiqi City."
"On the other hand, we also want to take advantage of the money-making ability of the merchants in Guanhai City and make them the money bags of the Yanshi family. We will plunder them after they have accumulated enough wealth."
"According to my father, the Marquis treats the merchants of Guanhai City as his own and will slaughter them once they have accumulated enough wealth."
"So it's not that the Marquis can't take down Guanhai City, he just thinks it's unnecessary. Merchants are merchants after all, how can they be opponents of us nobles? It's not surprising that Viscount Ryan can defeat them."
"And according to the intelligence I have gathered, it seems that Viscount Ryan has long coveted Guanhai City and started planning for it a long time ago."
"As for the specific layout, it is still unknown for the time being. Guanhai City is still under martial law, and many news have not been leaked. The only news that has been leaked is..."
At this point, Gray paused, swallowed unconsciously, and then said in disbelief:
"Viscount Ryan didn't just subdue two Dragonites, he owns the entire Dragonite clan!"
Freya paused and turned to look at Gray:
"What did you say? A group of Dragonites?!"
Gray nodded slightly: "Yes, it is said that in the final battle, more than a dozen Dragonites flew from the sea to support Ryan, and even changed the weather in Guanhai City."
Freya's eyes widened when she heard this, and her cherry lips, which were originally pursed, opened slightly. The knuckles that were gripping the handkerchief began to turn white because she was holding it too tightly.
"This is impossible! I don't believe it!"
Gray saw Freya's confused and flustered expression for the first time, so he sighed and said:
"Ms. Freya, please calm down!"
"Calm down? How can I calm down?" Freya's voice suddenly rose.
"How can Ryan subdue the Dragonite tribe? They are natural disaster monsters!"
"Back then, my father helped the royal family quell the rebellion for the sake of the natural disaster beast, and only at the cost of being seriously injured did he get the Staff-tailed Scaled Dragon back."
"Now you tell me that Ryan, a mere viscount, actually owns the entire Dragonite tribe. How can I accept this news?"
Gray said in a deep voice: "But whether you are willing to accept this news or not, the facts cannot be changed!"
"Instead of questioning the authenticity of the news, we should think about how we should deal with Viscount Ryan next!"
After hearing what Gray said, Freya's mood gradually calmed down.
She took a deep breath and smiled apologetically at Gray: "I'm sorry, Baron Gray, I lost my composure."
Gray shook his head. “You don’t have to apologize to a subordinate like me. Besides, this news is really shocking. It’s normal that you can’t accept it for a while.”
He understood Freya's feelings very well. After all, when he received the news just now, he had the same thought as Freya.
No, how could Ryan be qualified to subdue the Dragonite tribe!
Even their Lion King cannot make the Scourge monster tribe submit to him. What charm does Ryan have that can convince the Dragonite tribe?
Ryan has accomplished what Marquis Cross has not done. Does this mean that Ryan is stronger than Marquis Cross?
Gray was just an ordinary noble under Marquis Cross, and he had all kinds of thoughts after receiving the news.
Not to mention that Freya is the daughter of Marquis Cross. She has been influenced by her father since she was a child, and the impact she has received must be even greater.
Even though Freya now feels that her father is too old to continue leading the lion group, her admiration and pride for her father have not diminished in the slightest.
Her biggest dream is to recreate her father's glory and lead the Flame Lion family to the top.
Now that Freya suddenly learned that Ryan had accomplished what her father had always dreamed of but could not, it would be strange if she didn't react violently!
Marquis Cross's past words of praise for the Scourge Beasts and his regret that the Flame Lion Family had no Scourge Beast tribe were like sharp swords that pierced Freya's heart and caused her to lose her mind.
Fortunately, Freya was good enough to adjust her mindset in time and stopped worrying about gains and losses. She was worthy of being the object of his loyalty!
Facing Gray's loyal gaze, Freya felt both relieved and a little ashamed.
She said to Gray with a sincere expression: "No, I said that I will not treat you as subordinates, but partners fighting alongside me."
"Only by knowing clearly my mistakes can I avoid making them again and quickly grow into a lion king capable of leading you forward!"
Gray was deeply moved by what he said, and he knelt on one knee and said, "Yes, I understand. Then I will boldly accept your apology."
Freya extended her hand to signal Gray to stand up, and then said softly:
"What you just said is very right. The most important thing now is not to question the authenticity of the news, nor to think about the way Ryan subdues the Dragonite tribe, but to adjust our attitude towards Viscount Ryan."
"Although we planned to cooperate with Viscount Ryan before, we were more interested in taking advantage of him. I believe Viscount Ryan has also noticed this."
"So he took advantage of us and took advantage of our visit to Yinghuo Town to capture Guanhai City in one fell swoop."
"I was originally wondering where his confidence came from, but now I know that his confidence comes from the entire Dragonite clan."
"Viscount Ryan, who owns a group of dragons, has grown into a great noble in the Southeast Province, second only to my father."
When she said this, a hint of hesitation flashed in Freya's eyes.
Because she was not sure which one was stronger, the Flame Lion family or Ryan who had the Dragonite tribe.
The Flame Lion family should be stronger. Although the Dragonite family is powerful, their numbers are small. Thousands of knights can kill the Dragonite family.
Thinking of this, Freya felt relieved.
However, she did not realize that the weak would only use human wave tactics when facing a strong opponent.
Of course, maybe she ignored this on purpose.
"In short, we can no longer think of taking advantage of Viscount Ryan. We must lower our posture and show our value."
Gray said thoughtfully: "Do you mean to let Viscount Ryan use us?"
Freya nodded slightly: "That's right, cooperation is actually mutual benefit. Since we are not qualified to use Viscount Ryan, we should find a way to let Viscount Ryan use us, so that we can achieve cooperation."
Gray frowned: "But is there anything about us that Viscount Ryan can use?"
Freya shook her head: "Not yet, but."
She looked down at her ring, which was engraved with the emblem of the Flame Lion family.
"It will be available soon. It won't be long before my father learns that Ryan has tamed the Dragonite tribe."
"His biggest obsession is to own a tribe of Scourge monsters, but unfortunately he has never been able to achieve this goal."
"And Ryan, at such a young age, has already subdued the entire Dragonite tribe. How do you think my father will react?"
The latest novel is published first on Liu9shuba!
Without waiting for Gray to speak, Freya asked and answered herself:
"He will first feel jealous and unwilling, then angry and humiliated, and finally he will develop a strong fear of Ryan."
"If nothing unexpected happens, he will write to me immediately and ask me to go back. He will not let me marry Ryan again."
"At the same time, he will gather my brothers and ask them to find ways to suppress Ryan's development and then choose a suitable successor."
"My father is old. What he fears most now is foreign lions, and Ryan is the strongest lion that poses the greatest threat to him."
"So my father and Ryan are destined to become enemies, and then we will be valuable to be used."
Freya Moso rubbed the ring on her finger and murmured to herself:
"Father, please forgive me. Ryan is too powerful. My brothers cannot be his opponents. If you choose them, the Flame Lion family will be doomed."
"Only if I become the new Lion King will the Flame Lion Clan be qualified to compete with Ryan!"
——
Just as Freya expected, Marquis Cross soon received the news that Ryan had occupied Guanhai City and possessed the entire Dragonite tribe.
“Crack!”
Upon hearing the news, Cross angrily threw the cup to the ground and growled in anger:
"That young man Ryan is so bold that he dared to attack Guanhai City without my permission! Does he even take me, the lord of the Southeast Province, seriously?"
"The merchants in Guanhai City are also a bunch of rubbish! They were beaten and fled by the noble coalition army led by me, and now they can't even beat a viscount. They are really getting worse and worse!"
"With just this little ability, you still want the power in the hands of the nobles. You are not worthy!"
"If I had known you were such a loser, I should have taken down Guanhai City. Even if I handed it over to the West family, it would be better than handing it over to that brat!"
"Damn it! Ryan is just a kid who hasn't even fully grown his hair yet. How can he subdue the Dragonite tribe?"
"And the Dragonite tribe, where is the arrogance you had when you fought the Royal Knights? Now you have fallen to the point of submitting to a mere viscount. You have completely lost the face of the Scourge Beasts!"
Cross became angrier as he spoke, and his tone was full of sourness.
If he had only received the news that Ryan had occupied Guanhai City, he might not have been so angry.
Because he knew that the merchants in Guanhai City were no match for Ryan, he sent Freya to find out Ryan's thoughts and was prepared to suppress Ryan's development.
But Cross didn't expect that Shanghu would be defeated so quickly. Before Freya sent back the news, Guanhai City was taken down by Ryan first.
Although this news was unexpected, it was also reasonable and he could accept it.
It's nothing more than losing the purse. Lion City is not short of money now.
What's more, if Ryan marries the Yanshi family in the future, the money bag will still belong to their Yanshi family.
Even if Ryan was ungrateful and refused the marriage, he could slowly suppress Ryan and continuously weaken Ryan's power.
When he chooses a suitable successor, Ryan and Guanhai City will become the new Lion King's battle to establish his prestige, just like himself in the beginning.
Therefore, after seeing the news that Ryan occupied Guanhai City, although Cross's emotions fluctuated a little, he immediately calmed down.
After all, he is the lord of the Southeast Province, the master of Lion City, and the Lion King of the Flame Lion Family. He has seen all kinds of scenes, so how could he lose his composure because of a piece of news?
As a result, he immediately saw the news that Ryan had tamed the Dragonite tribe, and his defense was instantly broken.
No, why should Ryan do that?
I have been searching for the Scourge Monster tribe for so many years without any results, and I thought that no one except the royal family could tame the Scourge Monster tribe.
He was planning to give up and was ready to slowly tame and train the natural disaster beasts, one by one to increase the family's foundation.
However, now someone told him that a young man under the age of twenty had conquered the entire Dragonite tribe just by going out to sea, fulfilling his dream of many years. How could he not be discouraged?
This feeling is like a man who yearns for his beloved white moonlight day and night, and wants to pursue her after he becomes successful. However, at a class reunion, he learns that she ran away with an uneducated yellow-haired man and has given birth to two children.
To be honest, the fact that Cross didn't faint from anger on the spot was a testament to his strong mental strength.
"That guy has now occupied Guanhai City. Even if he doesn't take over the Merchants' Association and give up commercial trade, the wealth and resources left by the Merchants' Association are enough for him to develop rapidly."
"With the submission of the Dragonite tribe, this young man has gained power and will no longer let me control him."
“If you try to get him to join the Flame Lion Family through marriage again, the Flame Lion Family might end up in his hands in the future.”
"No! I have to get Freya back soon!"
Cross knew very well what kind of people his sons were; none of them were outstanding.
Forget about leading the Yanshi family to glory, it would be good enough for them to stabilize the current situation.
Cross originally wanted to let Ryan join the Flame Lion Family, and while he still had the energy, completely subdue him and make Ryan the guarantee of the Flame Lion Family's future.
It seems impossible now. A young lion who has not yet reached adulthood might be smitten by the majesty of the lion king.
But a strong male lion will not do that. He will only covet the throne of the lion king! (End of this chapter)
