His words were polite, but the meaning behind them was cold. He didn't welcome Fade and wanted to drive him away.
How could Fade not understand what he meant? His face darkened, and he said, "In that case, I'll take my leave."
Romeo stopped him. As for Harmon, he had an anxious expression on his face. He looked at Shergius and said, "Dad, Mr. Chen is my friend. He's a very good person, and he's also very accomplished in martial arts. Romeo trained with Mr. Chen for a period of time, and he has improved a lot. Now that he's reached the late stage of the Earth Level, he's not too far from the peak of the Earth Level."
Harmon was actually very clear. Fade's martial arts was extremely powerful. Furthermore, he was pretty useful to the Hsing family. He wanted the old man to change his mind.
However, before the old master could say anything, Lanzo spoke, "Impressive martial arts? That's only for secular martial artists. What hidden family like us doesn't have impressive martial arts capabilities?"
"As for Romeo's strength, Harmon, you are quite confident in it, so why don't you let Jones and Romeo train together, and we'll see his progress!"
As soon as Lanzo spoke, his son, Jones, immediately stood up and said with a smile, "That's a good idea. Romeo has been in the secular world for so long. I'm afraid that he has been praised by the people there so much that he forgot his own strength. Why don't we fight now and treat it as a training exercise before the election?"
For a moment, the father and the son looked at him, the intention to fight written all over their faces.
Romeo's eyes darkened, and he almost could not help fighting with Jones.
However, at the crucial moment, he was stopped by his father, Harmon. His face was gloomy as he said, "There is no need for all of you to worry about Romeo's martial arts strength. In any case, during the election, all of these younger generations will be there. When the time comes, we will see their strengths."
"Uncle, I'm looking forward to the performance of Romeo and Mr. Chen," Jones said in an unkind tone.
Romeo looked straight at him and said, "Then wait
and see."
At this moment, Harmon looked at his father. He cupped his hands together and said. "Dad, since it's not convenient for Fade to stay here, Romeo and I will stay with him."
Harmon turned around and prepared to leave.
The members of the Hsing family did not expect this.
Lanzo was startled for a moment. Immediately after, a smile appeared at the corner of his mouth. He said. "Harmon, the election is coming. If you leave now, then it will not be very convenient for the family to make arrangements."
Harmon turned around and looked at him. His gaze grew gloomy. He understood what Lanzo meant and directly said, "Since it's not convenient, then I shall be removed from the list."
Romeo also immediately said, "I'm with my father. Remove my name from the list too."
The two of them had made such a decision. It caused the members of the Hsing family to be shocked, and their faces were filled with surprise.
In this election, all the noble hidden families had the chance to participate. However, the number of people allowed to sign up was limited, so every family member was dying for a spot.
After all, no matter what the result was, they would have a chance to make a name for themselves.
In the Hsing family, the positions of Lanzo and Jones were stable. They did not need to be considered. Harmon and Romeo's candidate spots were difficult to obtain. However, the two of them had given them up. It naturally caused everyone to be shocked.
