You've found the Gusha-hime Knight, so put your hair up in a bun!

However, the atmosphere became slightly tense after Anya suddenly fell ill and Shiloh voluntarily offered his supernatural circuits to treat her.

Anya's guilt made her avoid Xiluo and frantically take on all sorts of dangerous missions, just to exchange military merits for a way to help her brother recover.

Xi Luo felt sorry for Anya's actions, so he chose to leave the capital on his own.

During that period, the atmosphere in the Wells household was extremely somber, and the usually easygoing Wells couple were unusually depressed for a long time.

They were very happy that Shiloh was doing well, but the fact that he had brought back a large number of young lovers left the couple unsure whether to laugh or worry.

“Hey, if your daughter gets into any conflict with them, remember to try to talk things out.”

Flin nudged Semey's waist and said.

“I know… let’s see how Anya reacts first, but I didn’t say that so she wouldn’t avoid Xiluo anymore…”

Serme rubbed his temples, looking a bit annoyed, and said helplessly.

Celine was actually happy that Shiloh could bring back so many young lovers.

The identity of a daughter-in-law of the Wells family is a politically significant one. Therefore, while Cecilia and the others are ostensibly Shiloh's mistresses, Cecilia actually considers them as her daughters-in-law.

After all, this was the person chosen by her own son, and Celine had always trusted Celine's judgment.

"Hey, almost there! Everyone, perk up!"

Serme's ears twitched as he heard the distant sound of the magic train. He immediately became excited and urged the knights to be alert and ready to welcome Shiloh's return.

Unlike the knights in the outer circle, the knights in the inner circle are all female knights who protect their families. And the one who leads and trains them is naturally Anya Wells, the daughter of the Wells family.

At this moment, she was pretending to train the female knights, but in fact she was paying attention to the movements on the tracks, and even reacted to the arrival of the train faster than her mother.

With her icy blue eyes gazing into the distance, Anya, dressed in a blue and white noblewoman's dress, silently clenched her jade-like hands, creating a wrinkle in the hem of her skirt.

"Miss..."

Seeing this, the female knight guard beside him softly called out, "Young Master Xiluo is so gentle and kind. You are his beloved older sister. How could he blame you?"

Upon hearing the guard's words, Anya took a deep breath. Her strong, icy beauty's face remained somewhat serious, but it also showed a hint of forced composure.

“I know, but…”

Anya bit her lip, her emotions churning inside her.

Since Xiluo left the capital, Anya hasn't had a single night of restful sleep.

Every night I worry about whether Shiloh, who is far away in Maple Leaf Territory, will be bullied, whether he will be wronged, whether...

Hearing from her parents about the extraordinary things her younger brother had done these past few days, Anya felt incredibly proud of Shilo, but at the same time, she became increasingly worried about him.

The thought that it was because she hid from her younger brother and went crazy trying to earn military merits despite her family's worries that Xi Luo left the capital made Anya even more resentful of her own stupidity.

I don't care about anything else, as long as Xiao Xiluo comes back safe and sound, back to my side...

Having been with the Magic Knights for so many years, Anya was not without her own intelligence network.

Although her parents didn't tell her certain things, Anya was quite aware of the female friends her younger brother had met outside.

However, as long as these things make him happy, I... don't care what they are.

Anya's pearly teeth left a faint mark on her lips, and her icy blue eyes narrowed slightly as she carefully concealed the bitterness in them.

Waaah—!

The train's whistle, signaling its imminent arrival, rang out melodiously, and the eyes of everyone waiting lit up with anticipation.

The Wells couple also stopped arguing for a while, straightened their clothes, and watched the train slowly stop not far away.

hum-

With a hum, the train doors slammed open, but the first to emerge were not Xi Luo, but four beautiful young women with distinct personalities.

The petite Irene and Fufro walked side by side in front, with Cecilia and Elena following behind the two girls, as they gracefully stepped out of the carriage reserved for passengers of the highest rank.

"Hey, hey, what's that—?!"

"Damn it, Miss Cecilia actually fell for him—"

As a famous celebrity, Cecilia was recognized by the crowd the moment she appeared, and they realized that it was true that she had been bought by Shiloh!

For a moment, extreme jealousy burned fiercely in the hearts of some men, who hated Shiloh with a vengeance, not to mention that among the women accompanying him was one whose beauty rivaled Cecilia's.

"Phew—it's been a really long ride."

A slightly hoarse, languid voice rang out, and amidst everyone's gaze, Xi Luo, dressed in a simple aristocratic suit, lazily stepped out of the carriage.

As if sensing the malicious gazes around him, Xi Luo raised an eyebrow slightly and glanced back seemingly casually, but a dark crimson glint flashed in his dark eyes.

Chapter 122 The Adorable Contrast of My Older Sister (Part 2)

When that crimson light flashed, those who had been mocking and malicious towards this former genius as before suddenly felt a surge of fear, as if they were being targeted by some terrifying beast and about to be torn to pieces!

Some people with low levels of cultivation were so terrified that their hearts broke, their legs went weak, and they collapsed to the ground, their faces pale and their breathing rapid.

The Eye of Intimidation is one of the vampire's abilities.

Heh, it works pretty well.

A dark glint flashed in Xi Luo's eyes. He smiled slightly, no longer paying attention to these shady characters, and turned to look at his family whom he had been thinking about day and night.

"Long time no see, Mother, Father."

Seeing his parents walking quickly towards him, Xi Luo smiled gently. The wanderer, returning home, unconsciously let go of his burdens in front of his family, as if the sandbags on his shoulders had been lifted, and he became visibly lighter.

Upon seeing this, Cecilia, Elena, and Irene felt a lump in their throats, probably thinking of their loved ones who had made them appear in such a state but were now no longer alive.

"You brat, you're finally back?"

Serme stepped forward and carefully examined Shilo, kneading and pinching his body, as if afraid that he might have suffered some hidden injuries that she hadn't been able to detect.

Although in the three major events, apart from his battle with Vera in the Forbidden God Domain, the other battles that Shilo fought could hardly be called battles, and he did not expend as much energy as he did during the few nights he spent in Maple Leaf Territory.

After a thorough inspection, Serme withdrew the surging magical energy, breathed a sigh of relief, patted the shirt on Shiloh's chest to smooth it out, and then smiled, "Looks like you didn't take my advice to protect yourself to heart. Not bad, not bad."

"You know that I'm always prudent in my actions."

Upon hearing this, Serme was somewhat amused and exasperated.

Those events made her shudder; she never imagined that Shiloh would be so audacious as to participate in high-level battles every time.

At first, it was just the [Stairway to the Stars], but by the time of Clonorsa, it had even reached the [Stairway to the Eclipse].

Is this what you call being prudent?

However, now that they were in public, Serme didn't intend to show her strict motherly side. She gave Shiloh a slap in annoyance and then looked at the harem behind him.

Upon closer inspection, Serme suddenly spotted a familiar figure, then raised an eyebrow and chuckled, "Oh? You're here too, little girl."

The guard assigned to Shiloh was carefully selected, and Serme and Flint naturally knew all of its members.

Although she knew she couldn't escape, after being caught red-handed, the "insider" Fufu scratched her head and awkwardly chuckled, "Heh, heh heh, greetings, Madam..."

I remember this little girl, Serme. After all, she was cute and had an innocent and romantic personality. Apart from a few quirks, she was pretty good.

Serme pinched Fuff's soft, delicate cheek and smiled, then turned his gaze to Cecilia, his smile becoming somewhat subtle.

Cecilia, who had been tense and had her pretty face taut like a soldier waiting for a general's inspection, gradually felt her fair face heat up and turn bright red when she felt that teasing gaze.

When Cecilia was still the commander of the Holy Knights, she knew that Cecilia admired her, and sent someone to propose marriage to her father, but she refused at the time.

If she had agreed back then, she would probably be the young mistress of the Wells family by now... Although Cecilia didn't care about the political implications of this position, she was still somewhat envious of the status that could ruthlessly suppress Elena.

Now, feeling Cecilia's teasing gaze, she managed to keep her expression unchanged, but her little feet inside her boots were digging into the soles of her shoes.

"Mrs. Well... Greetings."

Unable to withstand Cecilia's gaze any longer, Cecilia performed a perfectly ladylike greeting in a low voice.

"Ha ha……"

Serme covered her mouth and chuckled, reaching out to Cecilia to adjust her dress before leaning closer and whispering, "Miss Cecilia, didn't you say you didn't like Shilo? How come now..."

Upon hearing this, Cecilia felt her face grow even hotter.

After coughing twice, Cecilia thought to herself, "No wonder Shilo is always so frivolous. It seems there's a reason for it." Then she pleaded in a low voice, "Hey, the past is the past, and the present is the present... Please, please stop teasing me."

Hearing Cecilia's plea for mercy, Serme nodded in satisfaction, feeling somewhat refreshed.

After shifting his gaze from Cecilia, Serme looked at the quiet Elena beside him, and after observing her for a while, he raised an eyebrow in surprise and said, "Oh my, you little rascal, you're something else! Where did you find all these beauties?"

Hearing this, Xi Luo smiled slightly, then put his arm around Elena's shoulder and introduced her, "Her name is Elena. My encounter with her was truly unforgettable, wouldn't you say?"

Shiloh's words made Elena, who had been pretending to be calm and composed, feel a pang of anxiety. The extremely embarrassing scene of swallowing Oolong during their first encounter flashed through her mind, causing a blush to rise on her fair face.

Suppressing her shame and the urge to bite Shilo to death, Elena bowed slightly to Serme and greeted her respectfully, "Elena greets Mrs. Wells."

Seeing Elena's elegant demeanor and knowing that she was the girl who managed Shiloh's business, Serme's expression softened. He reached out to help her up and said with a smile, "Good girl."

Feeling the kindness in Serme's eyes, Elena felt a warmth in her heart, and her tense expression relaxed a little.

After meeting the three "daughters-in-law," Serme walked up to the youngest girl. Seeing her nervously trying to bow in greeting, he reached out and pinched her cheek, praising, "What an adorable little girl..."

Halfway through her sentence, Serme's smile suddenly vanished. She then turned to her innocent-looking son with a strange expression and asked, "Wait a minute, you won't—"

Before Shiloh could answer, Irene grasped Serme's wrist and said earnestly, "Um, Mrs. Wells, actually I'm just a little petite."

Of course, she's not very old, just barely over the age limit.

Serme naturally noticed this. After opening his mouth, he felt the strong protectiveness of the little girl in front of him, shook his head, and sighed softly.

"Don't be afraid, I'll give you some advice when we get home."

Seraphim gently rubbed the head of the seemingly well-behaved little girl, inwardly sighing at how cruel Shilo really was, while pondering what alchemical potions to prepare for Irene to enhance her physique when they returned.

While Cemme was having a "meeting" with her daughters-in-law, Shiloh had already walked up to Flint and hugged him.

"Father."

Upon hearing this, Fu Lin nodded without saying much, a knowing glint in his dark eyes.

"I know, I'll tell you when I get back."

While Xiluo was carrying out his operations outside the capital, he also sent the intelligence he had gathered to his father.

Speculation abounds regarding the mastermind behind it all, including the object of Truman's loyalty as the former lord of Clorenza, and the magician who provided him with the task of deciphering magical knowledge…

Clearly, the ambitious figure within the royal family has bared his fangs, intending to tear a chunk of flesh from the Wells family.

As for why the Wells family became their target, it was because of a unique aspect of their family compared to other chosen holy families—their power.

The ancestors of the Wells family were great sages who fought alongside the first Chosen Heroes to defeat the Demon King of the Abyss, and their powerful magical talent has been passed down through their bloodline to this day.

Because the inheritance of bloodline talents weakens as the bloodline branches out, each generation of the Wells family has only one heir.

Therefore, the Wells family is not like the chosen holy families that control finance, military, diplomacy, religion, and intelligence. Apart from the Magic Knights and the Magic Academy, they do not control any other forces. As a result, their influence is not as great as that of other chosen holy families. Even if the heir dies, it will not cause too much turmoil.

The Wells family has been able to continue to this day for two reasons. First, their ancestors were brothers with the founding emperor, and the successive heirs of the Wells family have maintained close ties with the royal family. Second, there is also the mysterious "fate".

According to the great sage, he was different from the founding emperor; he was not born with a destiny, but rather destiny chose him.

Therefore, "Heavenly Fortune" will ensure the continued existence of the Wells family forever, until...

The rest of the words were left unsaid, but those who understood the passage sensed that the Great Sage seemed to have learned some kind of secret on a world-level scale.

However, legends aside, although the Wells family has continued to this day, it does not mean that they can do nothing and leave everything to so-called "fate".

"Let's put those things aside for now. Tell me first, what are your plans for Duke Wayne's eldest daughter?"

Upon hearing this, Shiloh stroked his chin and said, "I will go and talk to Grand Duke Wayne tomorrow. By the way, have the maids tidy up my manor in the estate tonight and prepare five guest rooms."

Five rooms?

Fulin raised an eyebrow, looking at the confident smile on Xiluo's face, and his mustache involuntarily curled up.

"Heh, you little rascal..."

Flint patted Shiloh on the shoulder, in high spirits.

Knowing his son as he does, he'd definitely tell him if he needed anything.

Since the other party didn't mention it, it meant they must have made sufficient preparations, so Fulin didn't ask any further questions.

After the father and son finished their conversation, Shiloh glanced almost imperceptibly at the knights, pondered for a moment, and then asked, "Hmm... Where's my sister? Didn't she come to pick me up?"

Xiluo knew that her sister still felt guilty towards her, so she had been intentionally or unintentionally avoiding her.

However, now that he has rebuilt his extraordinary circuits and returned to the capital after such a long time, Xi Luo felt that he would still be somewhat sad if she did not come.

Flin opened his mouth, but didn't say anything, because he had already seen the blue and white figures hurrying out of the Cavaliers. Then he smiled slightly and said, "Silly boy, you two talk about what's going on."
