Chapter 1471 Return Of A Rebellious Daughter The Northern Continent. In a large hall. A group of four could be seen gathered, discussing intensely. One of the people present was Grey's father, and beside him sat a beautiful lady who looked to be in her thirties. It was none other than Matha, Grey's mother. The duo were surrounded by elderly people and one of the people had a striking resemblance to Martha. She was a woman who looked to be in her fifties but she looked very healthy and could be mistaken for someone in her thirties. "My grandson is in danger and you still refused to bring him here." A man in the hall asked calmly. He looked even younger than the woman in her fifties, and unlike the woman, it was very difficult to associate him with someone more than fifty. "Grey's safe, and under the watch of the Dawson Family." Martha replied while staring into the eyes of the man. "Hmph! What can the Dawson Family do in perilous times like this? They have so many enemies they would most likely be destroyed by humans." The lady who had a striking resemblance to Martha snorted coldly. "The Dawson Family's business is my business, and I will go down with them if need be." Martha replied with a calm expression on her face. The lady looked at Martha and was about to speak when the man raised his hand to stop her. "She has your mannerisms, and she will only run away if you force her hand." The man was calm as he spoke, his eyes didn't radiate the same youth as his face, he looked at Martha and asked, "You left over thirty years ago, I'll forgive you since you're my daughter." "Knowing you, you didn't come here because you missed us." He added. "There's something I need, and as much as I do not want to stay here, this is the only place I can get it." Martha didn't hide the fact that she came here in search of something. The man thought calmly before asking, "You're here for that thing?" "Does my grandson have issues with his cultivation?" Martha's mother asked. "Hus cultivation is going very smoothly, you should've heard about some of his battles given he's quite famous amongst the top Families and Factions." Martha replied with a proud smile. Her son didn't need the fame of her parents to grow, he was a genius who is even above them in terms of talent and perseverance. Not everyone would take on the task of training their body after not being attuned with any element during the affinity test. "Naturally, everyone has heard of Grey Dawson. Someone wanted dead by the Gnome race isn't someone people wouldn't be interested in. I, too, am interested in the boy. I wonder what makes him so fascinating." The man didn't hide the curiosity in his eyes. He should've been proud that he had such a grandson, but his relationship with Martha wasn't the best. Most people didn't even know Martha was from this Family, a powerful Family that resided in the Northern Continent. They ruled most of the top Factions here and almost everyone bends to their will, well, except for their rebellious daughter. "Then why are you in need of it? You know there are very few left, and everyone one of them is very precious." Martha's father asked. "I have a little girl under me, she's growing too fast. We've tried to stop it, but all our efforts have failed. She's on the verge of breaking into the Elemental Venerable Plane. If that happens, she'll explode from the excess energy." Martha explained. The reason Martha came over to her Family was all due to Cori being on the verge of breaking through. Grey's attempt to halt her cultivation has been futile, and even after her training, she realized the essence was just too much for her. She knew of a way to remove the dangers of breaking through, but that would mean she had to come to the Northern Continent. She used her own method and even asked Lucas for help, but in the end, they were only able to slow it down and not stop it. The fact that as the day goes by she draws nearer to breaking through made things worse for them. With no other choice, she finally came to the conclusion of coming, but she dragged Lucas with her. This was Lucas' first time here, he knew her Family, but he didn't come due to Martha's request. The idea of finally being able to meet Martha's parents personally intrigued him and so he didn't argue with her. "How old is she?" Martha's mother asked curiously. "Eleven." Martha's reply shocked those in the room, with the exception of Lucas who was already aware of Cori's age. "How's that possible?" Martha's father was genuinely bewildered at the age of Cori. In the Aurora Continent, only after one gets to the age of twelve are they able to know what elements they have an affinity to and start training. He had never heard of someone being close to the Venerable Plane at such an age. 𝚏𝗿𝗲𝐞𝚠𝕖𝐛𝗻𝗼𝐯𝕖𝚕.𝚌𝗼𝗺 "My son…" Martha told them of how Grey brought her out of the Chaos Battlefield. When they heard of the story of how Grey took in Cori, they were amazed at Cori's luck. Grey found her right after her brother had been executed. The little girl didn't know the right step to take, but Grey appeared and made everything right, helping her in the end. "I wonder what sort of man my grandson is growing up to become. Now I'm truly interested in seeing him." Martha's father squinted his eyes as he looked into space. Lucas looked at the expression on the face of Martha when he heard this, and to his surprise, she didn't seem pleased in any way, rather, there was anger in her eyes. He grabbed her hand as if to tell her it was fine. Martha gave him a glance before smiling and looking back at her father. "Will you help me?"
