Chapter 686 Old Noble District
"Miss Anna Grace is your sister? This is utterly unbelievable!" Empress Selena, still reeling from the revelation, muttered in disbelief, her eyes fixed on Aisha.
"As unbelievable as it may sound, this is the truth. Anna Grace is my eldest sister and the daughter of the Blank Clan!" Aisha declared with a proud grin, her gaze meeting Empress Selena's.
The throne room erupted in shock upon hearing this news. Everyone stared at Aisha in disbelief, their minds reeling from the revelation.
Since Anna Grace is the eldest daughter of the Blank Clan, one of the most powerful hidden families on the continent, and a member of the Ten Great Families, Yuan will now become the young master of the Blank Clan.

This revelation was shocking to everyone in the throne room. They had been curious about Yuan and his wives ever since they discovered their extraordinary strength.
"This is hard to believe that Yuan is the young master of one of the Ten Great Families—the Blank Family. We've been pondering his identity until now, but this is truly unbelievable." King Richard mumbled, his eyes wide with disbelief as he looked at Aisha. Even his son was taken aback by this shocking revelation.
"Yuan is indeed the young master of the Blank Clan. You can consider him as such," Aisha replied calmly.
Everyone in the room immediately raised their eyes, intrigued by Aisha's unusual response.
'As such? What does that mean? Isn't he the young master of the Blank Clan? Or is there something more to it?' Emperor Philip wondered inwardly, his gaze filled with questions as he looked at Aisha.
"Lady Aisha, what do you mean by that? I'm completely confused." Empress Selena asked, her face etched with confusion.
"Leave it... this is unanswerable," Aisha replied, her expression serious. The air in the room grew colder with her words.
"I see..." Empress Selena sighed in defeat, knowing that she wouldn't get answers from Aisha no matter what.
After a few moments of silence, Emperor Philip decided to break the silence and address the true purpose of this important meeting.
"Anyway, let's discuss the matter of why I organized this meeting today. After all, this is a very serious matter that we can't overlook."
"Indeed... Those heinous criminals have become incredibly bold recently. It makes my stomach churn." King Richard nodded, his face cold and dangerous. Disgust etched his expression.
"Those filthy rats... not only did they only infiltrate the Capital City of the Empire? But they also dared to steal the mythical treasure and cause chaos in the city, which is unforgivable!" Aisha exclaimed, her voice filled with disgust and arrogance.
Everyone eagerly awaited Emperor Philip's decision on this matter, as it held immense significance for the Empire and other nations on the continent.
The Golden Skull organization had been quite active recently, causing widespread destruction in cities and towns. Their audacity knew no bounds as they even infiltrated the Imperial City, jeopardizing the highly anticipated auction.
After observing his prolonged silence, Empress Selena addressed him, her voice filled with concern, "Dear, what are you so deeply engrossed in? Please share your decision with us so that we can effectively address these insolent individuals."
"Hah! I have made my decision. We shall launch an immediate attack on them! No one shall escape this city alive! They must face the consequences of disrupting such a crucial event!" Emperor Philip's voice resonated throughout the room as he unleashed a torrent of Mana, revealing his formidable strength.
"You have made a wise choice, Your Highness," Aisha smiled, preparing to depart the room after hearing his decision.
She turned to Empress Selena and inquired, "I shall equip myself. Do you have a designated room where I can transition into my battle gear? Returning to the villa would be a waste of precious time, and I detest wasting my time."
"We do have such a room. Rest assured, our servants will guide you all to your respective changing rooms." Empress Selena chuckled softly before issuing her servants to escort Aisha and the others to their changing rooms.
Once they had all left, Empress Selena addressed her husband with a serious expression, "Please refrain from killing everyone encountered in the deserted area. Capture a few of them alive for investigation and to uncover their true motives behind attempting to steal the mythical weapon."
"I'll keep that in mind. However, they must pay for their actions at the auction venue—every single one of them!"
With a furious expression on his face, Emperor Philip stormed out of the throne hall and vanished from Empress Selena's sight.
Later, Emperor Philip and his son, Daniel, led King Richard Windfall, Prince Tristan Windfall, and Aisha Blank to the desolate part of the city where the members of the Golden Skull organization were hiding.
Thousands of powerful Magic Knights followed closely behind, ready to fight against the members of the Golden Skull organization, who had jeopardized the auction and enraged many people with their audacity.
Since all the members of the Golden Skull organization possessed Forbidden Magic, it was always advisable to gather a larger force to combat them. The more powerful and numerous the fighters, the better the chances of success.
Inside the luxurious carriage, the air was thick with tension, and everyone wore a serious expression, especially Aisha Blank, who appeared cold and reserved.
No one dared to speak in her presence, fearing that their words might offend her and result in their downfall.
After a short journey, they all arrived at their destination: a deserted place with numerous broken and destroyed buildings, cracked floors, and abandoned homes. The atmosphere was eerily quiet, unlike the bustling city they had left behind. This place seemed to hold a haunting presence.
"It's hard to believe that this was once the Noble District," Aisha remarked, her voice filled with sadness as she surveyed her surroundings. "This is quite a sight to behold."
