chapter 15 Zhu Family Courtyard

A group of dark clouds passed by, blocking the bright moonlight. The sky became a little darker.
Sonny rested for a moment and began to get busy, preparing to bury the corpses on the road. No matter what they had done or what evil deeds they had done during their lifetime, they were now cold corpses and should be placed...
Messiah's youngest son had remained silent, with an indifferent expression. He could not see any sadness at the death of his parents. He just grabbed Messiah's clothes and lowered his head, not knowing what he was thinking.
Kailani walked up to him and touched his head affectionately, "Little brother, let's go to the carriage to rest!"
Perhaps it was the aura of motherhood, but the boy nodded.
"May I have your name?"
"My name is Alonzo Laurier!"
"What a good kid."
"..."
Kailani was comforting Messiah's son, her voice was particularly gentle.
After pondering for a while, Sonny buried Messiah and Mrs. Laurier together, hoping that their bad relationship could be resolved after passing away.
…
…
The carriage set off again, this time with only three people.
Alonzo was already asleep under Kailani's comfort. Because Sonny had to recuperate from his injury, Kailani took charge of driving.
Kailani drove at a speed that was neither too fast nor too slow, which gave Sonny a comfortable environment to recuperate from his injuries. A steady stream of vitality entered the meridians of the body from the acupoints and traveled throughout the body to nourish the injuries.
When Sonny opened his eyes again, light began to appear in the east.
"You go and have a rest. I'll drive and find a place to change horses."
Sonny spoke up.
Kailani nodded. The moment she leaned against the cushion, fatigue swept over her body, and soon she began to snore weakly.
The carriage continued to drive.
Looking at the surrounding environment, Sonny was planning his itinerary. He was very familiar with this road. When he went to Sword Sect, he paid careful attention to it.
An hour later, an inn appeared - Yewsbin.
This inn was large in scale and could provide all kinds of food, clothing, housing, and transportation. Kailani and Alonzo woke up from the carriage and got off.
Sonny found the waiter and spent a large sum of money to buy two good horses. Then he bought a lot of food, replaced the horses, and hit the road again.
The experience at night was unforgettable for Sonny.
Now he had only one goal - to fulfill the last instructions given to him by Messiah.
One day and one night passed.
Looking at the majestic Celestia City from a distance, Sonny breathed a sigh of relief and whipped his already tired horse a few times.
The horse began to trot again.
"Celestia City - we finally arrived!"
Kailani stretched out her head from the carriage and sighed.
Sonny smiled and nodded, "I hope we can perfectly fulfill Messiah's entrustment."
"Don't worry... As long as we enter Celestia City, anyone who wants to attack us must consider their own capabilities. The soldiers in the Tiger Army of Celestia City are not vegetarians."
Kailani said confidently.
Sonny nodded undeniably. He was still very clear about the strength of the Tiger Army. The Tiger Army once killed a master of the Holy Temple who was at Innate Realm.
Entering Celestia City, at first glance, you could see a dense crowd of people. There were rows of buildings on both sides of the main street, there was a constant flow of people, and the noise was endless.
"Let's take Alonzo to the Laurier family compound first, and then we can go home separately... How about that?"
Sonny spoke up.
Kailani nodded. Although she was eager to return home, she still agreed with Sonny's suggestion.
Although the Laurier Family Courtyard was not famous in Celestia City, there were still people who were willing to take Sonny to the Laurier Family Courtyard under the temptation of Sonny's money.
After almost passing through half of Celestia City, Sonny arrived at the Laurier family compound.
Looking at the simple, vicissitudes of life, yet still grand courtyard, Sonny nodded secretly. This Laurier family courtyard must had been extraordinary in the past.
In the courtyard, people were constantly coming and going.
Sonny led Alonzo and Kailani into the compound. Suddenly, many eyes focused on Sonny.
Nodding to many unfamiliar eyes, Sonny continued to enter the courtyard, where a white-haired old man was lying on a recliner with his eyes closed to relax.
"Excuse me, old gentleman, who is in charge of the Laurier Family Courtyard?"
Sonny asked softly.
The old gentleman half-squinted his eyes and glanced at Sonny, "What's the matter?"
"Something happened...but I need to see the real person in charge."
Sonny said firmly.
The old gentleman's eyes widened a bit, and he looked at Sonny with a sharp gaze, "I am the 28th generation head of the Laurier Family Courtyard - Cayden Laurier, you are?"
Sonny bent down slightly, saluted the old gentleman, and said, "I am a disciple of the Sword Sect. I was entrusted by Messiah who died to send his son to the Laurier family compound."
"A deceased's son?"
The old man's expression changed involuntarily, and he sat upright suddenly.
Sonny nodded and said, "We escorted Messiah to Celestia City, but we were attacked halfway. Messiah died. Before leaving, he entrusted his son Alonzo to us."
There was sadness in the old man's expression, and his eyes swept over Alonzo's body, "I really didn't expect...how could this happen? In the blink of an eye, a white-haired person sending off a black-haired person, really..."
Cayden shook his head, his expression became particularly sad.
After a long time, Cayden turned around and asked, "Did he entrust you with anything else?"
Sonny nodded and said, "Messiah gave me the Eminent Sword Controlling Technique before he died."
"That is the inheritance of our Laurier family, what a pity... ugh!"
The old man let out a heavy sigh.
Sonny took out the sword manual and handed it to Cayden. "This is what Messiah gave to me. Now I will pass it on to his son. I hope that his son will achieve great success in cultivation and avenge his father in the future."
Cayden turned around, looked at Alonzo with kind eyes, and nodded, "Don't worry... I will definitely do my best to train Alonzo and will never let him be wronged in the slightest. I hope he can avenge his father as soon as possible."
Sonny nodded, took out the jade before leaving, and handed it to Alonzo, "In the future...if you have anything that needs help, come to me with this jade, and I will do my best to help you."
Alonzo's expression was still very indifferent, but he took the initiative to take the jade.
Cayden stroked Alonzo's head affectionately, but his expression looked particularly sad.
After thinking about it, Sonny said, "I have completed the tasks entrusted by Messiah. I have other things to do, so I will not stay soon and say goodbye."
Cayden seemed to have not yet come out of his grief, and nodded, "Thank you both very much. I will definitely go to Sword Sect to express my gratitude to you someday."
"You're welcome!"
Sonny said softly, turned, and left.
Kailani quickly kept up with Sonny.
