Wizard: I Can Synthesis Everything-Chapter 287 - 274 Iris
Chapter 287: Chapter 274 Iris
...
"Yushier Gliondo, she’s technically my cousin, but also one of the Princess Party’s sideline members."
"As for the others, they are all her lackeys and supporters, one of whom is a pursuer from the Yehe Family."
Simon, keeping his voice steady, transmitted this information to Lin Suo and made everything clear.
Regarding the Yehe Family, they come from a prestigious noble lineage in the Ice Plateau Empire, and this young master from the Yehe Family belongs to one of the sideline branches.
Moreover, in recent years, a new Holy Spirit Level Wizard has emerged from within them.
Indeed, a staunch supporter of the internal division argument.
Of course, these matters would not be openly discussed, everyone knows but says nothing, and due to their high status, they aren’t easily dealt with.
Caught in a dilemma, no effective policy has yet been concluded.
While it seems Lin Suo was directly targeted, it actually aimed at Simon, representing the main family.
Yushier brought Yehe’s suitor to trouble Simon’s guest, essentially a bold declaration of allying with powerful forces, making their intentions quite clear.
"Dear cousin Yushier, this guest is a distinguished visitor of the Gliondo Family, isn’t this young master from the Yehe also moving freely in the core area?"
"And judging by the direction you came from, it must be from the Land of Blood Battle, is this young master also planning to transform his demon bloodline?"
"You!"
Because of their demon bloodline, members of the Gliondo Family are relatively hot-tempered and have a fierce family rule, notorious for consuming souls as food.
It is common for them to fight abruptly.
And unlike typical wizard families, they value strength more and admire descendants of formidable combat abilities.
Despite Simon’s tall and sturdy appearance, like a red tank, he is actually quite meticulous and one of the more self-controlled members within the demon family.
He was even given a shameful nickname by his peers.
— "The Cordial Diplomat".
Stunned by Simon’s retort, Yushier was about to flare up but then remembered the task given by her elder and changed her demeanor.
A bloodthirsty smile appeared on her enchanting face.
"Friend of Diplomat Simon, you look quite handsome as well, but I wonder if you taste good~"
"Sursen Yehe, what do you think?"
Sursen Yehe, likewise flashed a handsome smile, whistled at Lin Suo, and provocatively patted his own buttock.
"Pretty boy, I allow you to serve in my bed tonight."
Lin Suo wore a strange smile on his face.
Wizards honor knowledge, believe in the truth, and courtesy and breeding are indispensable elements of nobility.
The most notable difference between the main family and the Star Sea sideline accustomed to killing is this very demeanor.
One is like rowdy scoundrels, while the other, elegant nobles.
Easily distinguishable.
Lin Suo also carried an air of that temperament, clearly showing he is cut from the same cloth as Simon.
So...
"Simon, has the Truth Council not explicitly stated the punishment for insubordination?"
"Yes, they absolutely deserve to be killed."
Upon hearing this, both Yushier and Sursen seemed to realize something was off, their tone shouldn’t be like this.
According to intelligence, weren’t they supposed to have pulled the Yehe Family as external support, "Diplomat Simon" was also supposed to seek allies...
Lin Suo raised his right hand and snapped his fingers.
Immediately, a cross rose from the ground and thorny vines swiftly bound everyone present to it.
Sealing runes completely cut off any chances of their resistance.
The gap between legendary and regular wizards, just that absurd.
"Fire."
Woosh—
Red flames scorched everyone, especially for Sursen; the binding thorns relentlessly burrowed into his mouth, and even his lower parts.
"Uh-uh-uh..."
"It’s a pity I can’t hear those pleasing moans anymore."
The fiery torture was meant for everyone, but the piercing thorns intended only for Sursen.
Similarly, everyone would survive under the solace of Life Witchcraft, except for Sursen...
"Let’s go, Simon."
"Yes, sir!"
Yushier, with eyes wide open, stared intensely at Simon who led the way, and Lin Suo who followed.
A Legendary Strongman!
The pain of burning did not harm her much, some pain and it was over, not a big deal; but for Sursen, dying here posed a more troublesome issue.
After Lin Suo and his companion’s silhouettes vanished, she moaned under her breath.
A gem necklace on her chest activated, trying to rescue Sursen.
Then...
The Demon Power inside violently fluctuated, and exploded instantly, leaving no trace of Sursen’s body or soul. ƒгeewebnovёl.com
Yushier: "..."
"Damn it, you didn’t see anything!"
Her subordinates, bound to the cross, charred and with contorted faces, nodded.
An hour later, the torture automatically ceased.
"Grandfather, Sursen is dead, the main branch has brought a legendary strongman; it seems there’s going to be a big move."
"Yes, Sursen died by Demon Power."
"Alright, I understand."
Frowning, he reported the information upwards.
Yushier walked while tearing at the charred skin on his body, underneath which his flesh was rapidly recovering.
"Such bad luck, just had a skin treatment, and now I have to do it all over again."

Elsewhere.
Lin Suo arrived at a modest and understated castle, inhabited by main family members from Padolon, all of whom greeted Lin Suo with friendly smiles.
Clearly, they had been notified in advance.
The castle, though unremarkable at first glance, had walls entirely made of Level Nine Black Steel Stone, and the murals on the walls were extremely ancient.
Rich in historical aura.
Chandeliers, crystal lamps, fireplaces, sofas, and layout.
All reminded Lin Suo of his small castle from the past, this style of residence belonging to a clear retro style, the owner obviously preferred that previous era.
Main hall.
Most members of the main branch of the Gliando Family were present to receive him, and the banquet had been prepared three days in advance, providing a sufficient display of respect.
The Family Head, a Legendary First Tier strongman, was not participating in this action.
Mainly, it was the Clan Elders, three in total.
All were Legendary Third Tier strongmen, just a step away from the Holy Spirit Level, and ascending to the Holy Spirit in the Abyss was also an opportunity for them.
The Third Elder, who bore the bloodline of the Balrog Flame Demon and had lived for over twenty thousand years, had long abandoned his real name and was instead called by the code name "Flame Demon Elder."
He was nearing the natural end of his life.
Though Lin Suo had gained a lifespan of thirty thousand years upon breaking through to Legendary, it was because of his active Titan Divine Body.
The standard lifespan of the Titan clan was a hundred thousand years.
As Lin Suo’s achievement was acquired, so his lifespan had to be gradually increased; a normal Legendary Wizard upon breakthrough would have a lifespan of about twelve thousand years, increasing by about five thousand years with each upper breakthrough.
Short compared to Titan, but compared to other races, it was an epic upgrade and was definitely enough to trade for a Wise Man’s Stone from the Supreme Council to prolong life.
Details about Wise Man’s Stone were not publicly disclosed.
The public information was that each Wise Man’s Stone could increase lifespan by at least a thousand years, without any side effects.
It was one of the greatest treasures controlled by the Supreme Council.
Also a means to stabilize the Legendary Families.
More tightly guarded than Forbidden Knowledge.
The Second Elder of the Gliando, who bore the bloodline of the Horned Wing Demon with six horns and four wings, was known as the "Storm Demon."
The Third Elder bore the bloodline of the Heart-eating Demon, resembling a human the most with a kindly and benign appearance, except for his eerily crimson lips, and was known as the "Gourmet Demon."
After initial contact at the banquet.
The Third Elder, known as the Gourmet Demon, even joked that Lin Suo and Simon missed a crying barbecue.
Clearly, he had seen everything that had happened after they landed.
Lin Suo naturally felt somewhat intimidated by these old fellows.
This was a kind of aura suppression caused by experience, insolvable unless he surpassed the old men in terms of brute strength.
Otherwise, he would always consider his words carefully before speaking.
This was called deterrence.
Something not possessed by non-main branches of the family.
"Mr. Rhein, Iris often mentions you. Please take good care of things this time."
The man speaking to Lin Suo was Iris and Simon’s father, a Legendary Second Tier with a decent position within the clan and potential for further advancement.
Possibly becoming the Fourth Elder.
Lin Suo exchanged pleasantries, still unclear about what exactly was expected of him, but it most likely involved some issues.
Sure enough.
That very night.
He was personally escorted to a concealed basement by the old gentleman, where he met Iris.
The girl looked completely different from his prior impressions.
Not only had she shed the stereotype of being a stunted dwarf, she had matured into a very delicate beauty, and the natural charm about her had vanished.
She became extremely pure.
Dressed in a white lace corset puff skirt, her curly hair draped over her shoulders, and a red gem dangling at her brow.
Her misty eyes seemed as if they could speak, her lips pink and teeth white, corners of her lips slightly upturned, like a pure lotus unstained by the mud.
Lin Suo was taken aback.
Was this still the flirtatious and trivial girl he remembered...
"Cough cough! Iris, your father said you’re central to this plan, you’ll tell me what I need to do."
"Teacher Rhein."
Iris was very serious, standing quietly, speaking straightforwardly.
"This, obtained from the Holy Light Empire, is a Holy Light Mysterious Artifact, I need your help to make it into a personalized Evolutionary Witch Tool."
"The power of Holy Light... I’ve never dealt with this kind of power before; I’ll need some time to study it."
"That’s why father brought you here."
Iris’s cheeks flushed, looking quite shy, but Lin Suo keenly noticed her swallowing nervously, and her movements began to grow rough.
Original nature revealed? Seriously?!
The next moment, Lin Suo’s eyes widened, as Iris shed her dress in his presence, revealing her entire back.
Her voice slightly trembled, mixed with suppressed excitement.
"Teacher Rhein, for certain reasons, I’ve deeply studied the power of Holy Light, my back is inscribed with a modified Rune Array using my magic."
"If you follow this pattern, it will definitely succeed."
"So... the Blood Charm Demon God likes the Holy Spirit? Interesting..."
