The Whole Family Moves to the O'Brien Empire

As night deepened and the last rays of sunset vanished beyond the Magical Beast Mountain Range, Hogg finally woke after lying there for half the day.

Seeing the silver dragon scales covering his entire body and the pair of enormous dragon wings behind him, Hogg laughed with pure delight. It was the first time he had laughed so heartily since his wife's death. He immediately flapped his wings and soared into the sky, making Bolan beside him burst into laughter.

Only after an hour had passed did Hogg return from afar and land beside Bolan. Bolan handed him a robe. Dragonblood Warriors were good in every way, except transforming was terribly hard on clothes. Watching Hogg revert from his transformed state, Bolan could not help complaining that this was probably what people meant by the troubles of happiness.

Hogg had only just calmed down from the excitement of becoming a Dragonblood Warrior when he saw the teasing smile on his eldest son's face. His old face flushed, and he raised a hand as if to strike him.

Yet when he saw his son stick out his head, he could not help rubbing the boy's head. Bolan was already nearly as tall as him, and Hogg smiled with gratification.

Once the four of them, father and sons, had fully grown, they would undoubtedly raise the Baruch Clan to an unprecedented height—a glory even their founding ancestor, Baruch, had never attained.

After all, he had three sons. Even ancestors who had two sons were rare in the clan records, let alone three.

"Let's go. We should head back." Hogg patted Bolan's shoulder with satisfaction and entered the Ancestral Hall in the rear courtyard with him.

"When do you plan to leave this time?" Hogg asked Bolan while holding the incense he had just lit.

"This time, I hope you'll come with me to settle in the O'Brien Empire. Wushan Town is simply too close to the Magical Beast Mountain Range. If anything happens, we won't have time to prepare."

Hogg looked gratified, though there was also a trace of sadness in his expression. "Sigh, our Baruch Clan has lived here for more than five thousand years. Leaving so suddenly really is hard to bear."

Still, both his sons were in the O'Brien Empire. He was not worried about his eldest son, but his youngest had been mischievous since childhood. Having been apart for years, he was reluctant to part with him again.

"What about Linley?" Hogg asked.

"Don't worry about that. I'll go to the Ernst Institute to see Linley shortly. You and Uncle Hillman can pack up. We'll leave as soon as I return. I'll also awaken Linley's bloodline while I'm at it."

Hogg nodded with satisfaction. "Go on, then. There's nothing much to pack at home. The most important things are in the Ancestral Hall; nothing else matters. We'll set off once you return."

With that, he went to find Uncle Hillman. Hogg's household had no one else, but Uncle Hillman had a whole family to deal with, so there was plenty to do.

Thinking of this, Bolan hurriedly set off with the two dragons toward Fenlai Royal City.

Linley should be about to enter the Magical Beast Mountain Range for his first training expedition. He'll soon meet the woman who hurt him most deeply.

Killing intent rose in Bolan's heart, only to fade again. Without suffering heartbreak, Linley might not grow as quickly as he had in the original story.

Thinking it over, that woman named Alice was still somewhat useful.

At that moment, Alice was still at home enjoying the life of a noble, and without realizing it, she had narrowly escaped disaster.

As Bolan gazed at Fenlai City, whose outline was already visible in the distance, he could not help growing excited. He was finally about to see his full-blooded younger brother.

The former Bolan might have dreamed of relying on Linley in the future and refrained from casually changing Linley's path of growth. But Bolan was different now.

He now understood that this was a real world. There was no chosen child of Fate. Linley could die, and so could he. Since he was the eldest brother of the Baruch Clan in this life, he would do everything in his power to protect everyone in the clan.

Having figured everything out, Bolan suddenly felt utterly clear-minded. With his mind blank, he unexpectedly comprehended Momentum—the Momentum of heaven and earth. However, since they were about to enter the city, he set aside the urge to test it.

By then, the Silver Dragon had already carried Bolan above the Ernst Institute. They were preparing to head straight for Linley's favorite place to stay—the back mountain!
