Chapter 690
The mansion of the Udye family was one of the most massive structures in the entirety of the Utra nation .
The mansion could be found at the center of Knightborn city, on the eastern areas of the nation, and many paved roads stretched from it .
Those paths connected the Udye family to the other noble families under its domain, but they also led to specific strategic spots .
The Elbas family left the large-size noble families in charge of cities inside their respective regions, but it exacted taxes every year .
Those families would produce the necessities that kept the commoners and weak human cultivators alive while the Royals focused on the matters concerning the cultivation world .
Of course, the large-size families would just task the weaker families under their domain to take care of those matters .
They couldn't just leave the Elbas family becoming stronger without trying to do the same, but the control of the Royals was among the strictest in the entirety of the Mortal Lands .
They had spies everywhere, and they even offered beneficial agreements to anyone willing to serve them .
However, ambitious underlings would always appear in every organization, especially when some of them had spectacular talent .
The Udye family was the most powerful noble family, and it had one of the most promising talents in its ranks .
Also, that talent was a cultivator with a light aptitude, which further enhanced his importance .
That talent, his father, and the other heroic cultivators in the family were eagerly waiting in the garden of their mansion at that time .
"We have been through this once already . "
"Octavia, please . This time is different . He will definitely come . "
A masked heroic cultivator and Daniel exchanged words as they took glances at the terrain of the garden .
They had received a communication that day in which the Hive asked for the precise location of their mansion .
Of course, the Udye family gave them the instructions and even offered to prepare a formation in a safe area inside Knightborn city .
Yet, the elders of the Hive were set on arriving directly inside its mansion .
The Udye family could only accept their terms at that point, which led to the current situation where its heroic assets were waiting for the arrival of their allies .
"Daniel, I'm happy that he helped you, even if only indirectly . Yet, remember that we are just tools in their eyes . They aren't helping us out of goodwill . "
Octavia warned Daniel again .
"Octavia, I'm not a kid anymore . They'll use us to weaken the Elbas family and raid some mansion, while we'll use them to leave the Utra nation to the Cause . We'll just submit to the Royals if the Hive tries to take this land from us . "
Daniel exuded a firm resolution when he said those words, and Octavia couldn't help but accept that he had grown .
She knew that Daniel had always been inclined to see the good in people, but that attitude was too naïve, especially for someone in the heroic ranks .
However, that aspect of him changed after meeting Noah in the new continent .
Daniel had finally begun to focus on himself and stopped thinking like the leader of a revolution .
His Earth Tribulation had gone smoothly thanks to his new mindset, and even his cultivation level had steadily improved at that point .
Daniel was a complete heroic cultivator near the peak of the gaseous stage now, which was something worthy of respect for someone who didn't create a cultivation technique .
Yet, Octavia was still worried about the strange relationship that he had with Noah .
