"Mom, she's the Nono I've told you about so many times..."

Caesar sat down in front of the tombstone. "Now, she is my wife. I hope you like her."

Nono quickly knelt down beside him.

But Caesar stopped her: "Do whatever you want. Mother is just an ordinary woman. She doesn't have as many family rules. The more relaxed you are, the better."

"Oh."

Nono imitated him by sitting cross-legged.

"I...I have something to say?" she asked in a low voice.

Caesar took her hand, smiled and shook his head: "I've told my mother a lot about us, and she knows all about your great achievements."

Nono's face darkened: "Aren't you going to help me cover for myself?!"

"It's okay, Mom likes girls like you who dare to stand up for themselves."

Nono fell silent.

She could probably guess what a sad story it was, just like her own biological mother, a pain that would forever remain in her heart.

Nono gripped Caesar's hand tightly.

"Once I take over this family, everything will change."

Caesar said softly, "Families that always put profit first are too cold-blooded, without love or aspirations in their hearts. They are just walking corpses. I want to change all of this."

Sword Comes

A smile couldn't help but appear on Nono's lips.

Even after her Caesar got married, he still retained that youthful spirit.

She began to look forward to the future, hoping to see her family gradually become more humane under Caesar's leadership.

The two stayed in the tomb until evening before returning.

By this time, the area outside was already full of cars waiting to pick people up, but no one dared to forcibly take Caesar back.

In the past, some people might have relied on Frost to be tougher on Caesar, but now they all know that Caesar will be the head of the family from tomorrow, someone who can decide their fate with a single word. Who would dare to say anything to him?

"His face is repulsive."

Caesar glanced at the group expressionlessly and coldly uttered a single word.

The two finally returned to their bridal chamber, and many people inside and outside breathed a sigh of relief.

"Caesar, don't you think something's strange? They seem particularly concerned about our wedding. The ceremony is all done, isn't it?"

Nono kicked off her shoes and slumped onto the sofa, exhausted.

Caesar collected her shoes and placed slippers beside her feet.

“I don’t see anything wrong. You have a feeling something’s off?” Caesar asked.

Nono shrugged: "It's alright. We didn't see any important figures. But the servants seemed relieved to see us come back, as if they had avoided something bad."

Caesar shook his head and poured two glasses of whiskey: "Perhaps it's Frost's request, to make sure we're home or something."

"Oh…"

Nono still felt that something was wrong, but she couldn't quite put her finger on it.

Those people were just a little nervous. Could it be that my profile exaggerated something?

She couldn't help but have doubts.

"Come."

Caesar sat down next to her with two glasses of wine, squeezing in close with her.

Nono downed her drink in one gulp, then jumped up and collapsed onto the bed: "So tired!"

A smile appeared in Caesar's eyes as he put down his wine glass and sat down on the edge of the bed. "You seem very nervous?"

"I'm not nervous at all! Not at all!"

Nono snorted coldly, but silently moved a few steps away from him.

Caesar lay down beside her, reaching out to touch her cheek, his deep blue eyes sparkling with a captivating smile. "Today you are mine."

"And it will continue to be so," he added.

Nono turned her head away, but her face slowly turned red.

Before, she wasn't interested, so naturally nothing interesting would happen between her and Caesar. But now that they're married, there's no reason for her to refuse anymore, and she herself is very interested.

Caesar flipped over and pinned her down, like a big black bear pouncing on a little rabbit...

"Lights out."

In the most secluded tower of the castle complex, all the family elders who had attended the wedding after the revival gathered and sat around a long table.

On the huge screen opposite, there were vague red figures entangled together, which vaguely resembled the scene inside Caesar and Nono's room.

Fortunately, they had some remaining integrity and watched the live thermal imaging broadcast.

"Hey, you bunch of old guys, won't you get aroused watching my son's live stream?"

Pompeii still acted nonchalantly, with his legs crossed high, looking around as if he felt uneasy not having a woman in his arms.

"Shut up! This is the most sacred moment in the family's history of thousands of years. Be serious!" an elder said.

"Oh ho ho, a bunch of people are watching my son exercise, do you expect me to watch it with an academic research mindset?"

Pompeii's laughter was sarcastic.

"I have a very serious suggestion, and I hope you will consider it."

He pointed to the thermal imaging screen in front of him and said, "Even if we can't watch the uncensored high-definition version, at least let's have some sound, okay?"

Chapter 382 Gattuso's Ambition

"Xia Mu, you're such a pervert..."

Xia Mi's voice, which sounded both disdainful and excited, echoed in his mind.

Xia Mu held his breath and concealed his aura completely to avoid being discovered by the two people fighting above.

"How was I supposed to know that the Gattuso family's underground tunnels were so interconnected that they could lead directly to the area beneath their bridal chamber!" he cried out in his mind.

"I love it! Let's go under the bed! This tunnel leads directly under their bed!" Xia Mi exclaimed excitedly.

Xia Mu: "..."

"Let's get down to business. We're here to find the King of the Sky and the Wind, not to eavesdrop."

Xia Mu reached out and placed his hand on the dark passage wall to sense it. "I don't know if it's just my imagination, but the scent of the sky and the wind suddenly appeared tonight."

“Okay…” Xia Mi said with some disappointment, “You can basically trust your gut feeling, since we’re only one player short…”

Xia Mu was exasperated: "Are you playing mahjong?!"

"That's about it..."

Xia Mi swung her legs.

Xia Mu quietly left the underground room where Caesar and Nono were staying, and following a strange feeling, walked down into the passageway below.

"Xia Mi, can you hear the girl crying?"

After a while, Xia Mu frowned and stopped.

“What you hear is what I hear. Deep underground, someone is crying,” Xia Mi said.

Xia Mu frowned: "The Gattuso family has always been strange, especially this wedding. The scale was unbelievably large. Not only were all the old fogies present, but all the family members were also summoned back."

"Haven't you always suspected that Chen Motong has something going on? Maybe today is the day the truth comes out."

"Something happened on their wedding night? That's too cruel..."

Xia Mu's eyes sharpened, and he suddenly increased his speed, his figure weaving through the tunnel and quickly descending.

“Do you remember that time at the Gattuso family’s former residence? You bought me time on the surface while I went underground to search for clues. What I saw then looked a lot like you now,” Xia Mi said.

"Well, let's see what the Gattuso family is up to."

Xia Mu broke through the darkness and saw a bright underground cavern with blinding lights everywhere.

The first thing he saw was Pheros, the giant sky and the king of wind, from whom he had fought a great battle.

However, she was no longer as energetic as before; she lay on the huge platform, barely alive.

Xia Mu also saw Paci Gattuso.

This most loyal secretary of Caesar was leaning against the dragon, his white silk robes connected to the dragon king, with blood continuously flowing into his body.

The tall figure shrouded in black robes was hidden in the darkness, but it did not escape Xia Mu's eyes.

But they did not notice Xia Mu arriving silently.

"Poor Dr. Herzog, he probably never wanted to know he was actually an experiment, hahaha..."

The man in black robes laughed wildly, "We've succeeded! We've succeeded! A great era has arrived!"

Percy stared at him indifferently, his half-gold, half-blue eyes gradually changing color.

"Half of your body has been soaked in dragon's blood. That Uesugi Erii was accidentally stained with dragon's blood, but you are the most perfect vessel we created!"

The man in black robes spread his arms wide and waved them forcefully, "You no longer have to endure the pain of your body weakening day by day, you are free!"

Percy slowly rose to his feet, clenching his fists. "I have never felt so powerful before, Mr. Bondarev. Your talent would make even the dragons tremble."

Finally, at this moment, Xia Mu heard the name Bondarev, and everything became clear.

"So that's how it is. After Black Swan Harbor was destroyed, neither of those conspirators died. Herzog once said that he killed Bondarev and obtained his research notes, but now it seems that it was Bondarev who did it on purpose..."

Xia Mu thought to himself, "He passed on the blood transfusion technology he had conceived but had not yet put into practice to Herzog. Herzog did his best to experiment with it and almost succeeded in the end."

“If it weren’t for you, he would have succeeded,” Xia Mi said.

Xia Mu nodded: "And Bondarev has been hiding behind the Gattuso family all along. The reason why the Sword of Damocles appeared so timely was to prevent Herzog from truly becoming the White King. They were just using Herzog as an experiment, but they had even devised a plan for destruction."
