These Familiars Are Strange-Chapter 129: Give me some face (2)

When Governor Nangong heard this voice, he couldn’t help revealing a frown.

It wasn’t that he recognized this voice, it was just that he could feel the pressure coming from this voice when it rang out. Find adventures on novelbuddy

This voice was projected in a similar way to how he had projected his own voice earlier. And since it was projected in a similar way, that meant that Governor Nangong was able to tell just how much power was behind this voice.

This was a power that wasn’t beneath his own.

In fact, this was a power that even surpassed his own.

That was why he had this concerned look on his face.

"Who are you?" Governor Nangong asked in a slow voice after a long moment of silence.

As soon as they heard this, the soldiers all revealed surprised looks.

That was because they knew what kind of personality Governor Nangong had, so they knew that he was not someone that compromised on things that easily. The fact that he actually backed down to ask this…was more than enough to show that the other side wasn’t a normal person.

Then before anyone could react, the soldiers that had been surrounding the area suddenly parted.

There was a single path that opened up in the line of soldiers.

They didn’t even know what moved them. By the time that they reacted, they found that they had been moved out of the way by some force that they couldn’t control.

Once they had been moved out of the way like this, there was a single figure that walked through this path.

This slightly bent figure became the center of attention.

The one that had the strongest reaction from seeing this figure wasn’t Governor Nangong, but rather me because the moment that I saw this person…

"Why is it him?" That was the first thing that I thought when I saw this person.

"Sir, who are you? Why are you getting involved in this matter?" Governor Nangong said in a cautious voice that was completely different from the way that he spoke before.

"I’m no one special, I’m just hoping that you’ll give me a bit of face and let them go for now. After all, I want one of them as my disciple." The old man who appeared said before turning to look at me.

I was surprised to see him looking at me like this.

This old man…was the old man that had been with my mother and brother when they had gotten caught in the dungeon break.

He was the one that had been able to keep calm and guide everyone out of the dungeon break zone. He was the one that I had thought had a deep back story, but it seemed that I had underestimated just how deep that back story was…

A very displeased look appeared on Governor Nangong’s face when he heard this.

After all, it wasn’t just about giving this old man a bit of face.

It was about letting the one that murdered his son go.

This was his precious son, the only thing that he had left after his wife died.

So how could he let this matter go that easily?

The old man could see the look that was on Governor Nangong’s face, so he said, "Take one attack from me. If you can’t, then just drop this matter for now."

Governor Nangong still looked displeased when he heard this, but he slowly nodded in agreement.

After all, he had no idea just how strong this old man really was.

He could tell that this old man wasn’t inferior to him, but he couldn’t get a full grasp of just how strong this old man was.

If he could use this one move to judge the old man, then he would be able to figure out if he should go all out against him or not.

The old man naturally could see the look that was on Governor Nangong’s face, so he raised his hand and created a sword of wind while giving a sigh.

Governor Nangong couldn’t help slightly knitting his brows when he saw this.

There was a part of him that seemed to recognize this sword of wind, though he wasn’t certain where he recognized it from. It almost seemed like some kind of memory that was deep inside of him.

It was this kind of vague memory that made a deep impression on him.

But it was already too late for him to think anything else since the old man had already finished gathering his attack.

Governor Nangong didn’t waste time either as he gathered his flames in front of himself to create a wall of flames that would protect him.

Since it was a wall of flames, one would think that it would have the advantage against wind since wind was what enhanced flames. One thought that the wall of flames would swallow the blade of wind, making it even stronger.

But this old man’s wind slash was different from the wind slashes of normal people.

That was because his mana was much more condensed than normal people’s.

The way that he slashed out and the slash that he released all looked like he was just casually swinging his sword, but Governor Nangong who faced the pressure of this knew that it was anything but normal.

After all he was in the face of the terrifying pressure that the wind slash was putting on him.

"This…" That was all Governor Nangong was able to say before the wall of flames was scattered.

Even the mana that he had been gathering to reinforce the wall of flames was scattered with just a single gust of wind from the wind slash.

When it was over, Governor Nangong was still standing there, but there was now a faint line of blood that was on his neck.

That showed that if the old man wanted, he could have taken Governor Nangong’s head with just that one slash.

"Zephyr Blade Mu Gong?" Governor Nangong slowly said in a shocked voice.
