In the quiet of night, the Holm family's screams and wails sounded even clearer and more piercing. Those voices carried far away, and even Jennie and Keen who lived in the castle heard them clearly.

  "What's wrong?"

  Keene rushed out in his nightgown, and Jennie's hair was also disheveled as she ran out. The two siblings looked at each other in confusion and walked directly towards the castle gate. Meanwhile, Lambert, the extremely vigilant old servant, had already arrived at the castle gate.

  "My lady's orders: no one is allowed to leave the castle at night."

  The two guards at the castle gate crossed their long spears and said coldly to Lambert.

  "What's going on? You two get out of the way." Keen rebuked.

  Those two guards saw Jani and Keen coming over, exchanged a glance with each other. Everyone in the castle knew that Keen was the heir of the lord. However, everyone also understood that Lady Wied would not easily give up her power.

  "Master Keene, Miss Jenny, I'm sorry, but the lady has given orders that no one is to leave the castle at night. You'd best go back and get some rest." One of the taller guards spoke up.

  "Get out of my way."

  That tall servant still refused, and painfully begged: "Master Kein, don't make it difficult for us. You're forcing us to our deaths. We really can't disobey the mistress's orders."

  Keane felt a surge of annoyance in his heart.

  Next to him, Jennie advised, "Alright, Keane, don't make it difficult for them. They're quite pitiful too."

  "Thank you, Miss Jenny. Thank you, Miss Jenny." The two guards said in a hurry, and they also felt grateful to Jenny from the bottom of their hearts. Jenny looked as holy as an angel, and her heart was equally kind.

  Zan Ni asked warmly: "May I ask what happened outside, I heard that scream and it seems very noisy in the east direction."

  "That tall guard whispered: 'Miss Zhan Ni, just a short while ago, the madam left the castle with some people. There were many city guards passing by the castle gate earlier.'"

  "What's with the old lady? The City Guard?" Jenni and Keen both looked puzzled.

  At such a late hour, Lady Weide took out a large number of city guardsmen to do something.

  "Miss, young master, rest here for a while first." Lambert said, pointing to the stone chair beside him. Keen and Jennie nodded and walked over, and the three of them sat down.

  Jenny, Keane and Lambert are all worried.

  The existence of Mrs. Vidal was like a fishbone stuck in their throats, causing them great pain.

  "That stinky woman, using the reason that I'm not yet an adult, is forcing me to wait another two years. Hmph... Two years, by the time two years pass, I'm afraid I'll already be dead at her hands." Keen muttered under his breath.

  Zhan Ni also nodded.

  Her brother and sister were quite clear that they could not let Mrs. Vede go on like this.

  "Miss, young master, the madam has been in charge of Chellden Castle for a long time. Whether it's the city guards or the castle guards, they all listen to her. Her prestige is already very high. If Kein doesn't take over as the lord of the castle, we really can't compete with her. After all... there are too few people here who completely support us." Lambert also felt helpless.

  Jenny, Keane and Lambert all fell silent.

  In Chell County town, there are really very few people who support them. I'm afraid that even if someone wants to support them, they don't have the guts. In Chell County town, Mrs. Weide is a local tyrant.

  "Ah."

  A gust of wind arose.

  "Who?" The two guards looked up vigilantly, and saw a man in black warrior attire descending gently to the ground, with a heavy sword of dark blue color on his back.

  "It's me." Lin Lei turned his head and glanced at the two guards.

  Those two guards suddenly didn't dare to make a sound, Lin Lei's strength they had also heard of, with the strength of the two guards, they couldn't even block Lin Lei.

  "Lei Ge." Zhan Ni and Ji En both stood up.

  Lin Lei turned his head and looked over.

  It's now early summer and the evening temperature is still quite high, Keen and Janni are only wearing simple pajamas, their hair a bit messy.

  "Lei Ge, what's going on outside? Why is it so loud?" Keen asked first.

  Lin Lei said casually: "That Lady Weide led the city guards to directly raid Holm's family, do you think it won't be noisy?"

  "House search?" Janie and Keane were stunned.

  "Holmes' family?" The old servant Lambert was also shocked beside him.

  Lin Lei casually sat down at one end of the long bench, smiling: "You all just rest here for now, and wait a bit to hear some good news."

  "Good news? Did that stinking thief steal money for me?" Keen cursed in a low voice.

  "Boom!"

  At this time, a deafening explosion was heard from the east, and the explosion was so loud that it was like dozens of thunderclaps. This explosion probably woke up half of the people in Cherkasy city.

  "What's wrong?" Jennie, Keane and Lambert jumped up in fright.

  The surrounding guards, as well as some attendants and maids, gazed eastward in shock and bewilderment, while at that moment the east had a soaring flame.

  "How can there be such a big flame and such a loud explosion?" Lin Lei also looked at Dongfang with confusion.

  Everyone in the castle was bewildered, quietly waiting for the city guard to return and for Lady Wied to come back. Perhaps then they would know why there had been such a large flame and such a loud explosion.

  After a while, the sound of horseshoes echoed outside the castle gate, and the shouting continued uninterrupted. Following that was a rapid knocking on the door, like raindrops during a thunderstorm.

  "Bang!" "Bang!" "Bang!" "Bang!"... The knocking at the door was urgent and ear-piercing.

  "Open the door quickly! Open the door!" Angry and urgent shouting voices came from outside.

  The two guards did not dare to delay, and immediately opened the castle gate. Lin Lei, Ji En, Zhan Ni, Lambert and others also looked out of the door.

  The castle gates were wide open, and a large number of knights and brave warriors gathered on the empty ground outside the castle. The leader was a blond-haired man holding a long spear.

  "Scram." The blond man shouted at two guards.

  However, when he saw Zhan Ni and Keen, the blond man was taken aback, then immediately bowed respectfully: "City Guard Army Deputy Commander Li Te, nice to meet you, Miss Zhan Ni, Young Master Keen."

  Li Te, the deputy commander of the city guard, is also considered to be second in command. Only inferior to the commander. At a banquet not long ago, Deputy Commander Li Te was also present and naturally knew Zhan Ni and Ji En.

  "Mr. Li Te, what's going on? You seem so anxious," Ji En said aloud.

  Li Te immediately knelt down on one knee, painfully saying: "Young Master Ji En, I was unable to protect them, and Mrs. Wei De and her two brothers were killed in the explosion just now."

  "Oh... Ah!"

  Keane's eyes widened in surprise, and Jennie and Lambert were also shocked, even the guards around them looked surprised.

  Mrs. Wheat died.

  Just as Jennie and Keene were in trouble, Mrs. Wheat died suddenly with her two brothers. Her death only excited Keene and Jennie more.

  Keane and Janine exchanged a glance, both eyes revealing their excitement.

  "What's going on, tell me in detail." Keen's tone now carried a sense of superiority.

  The blond-haired man 'Li Te' immediately reported: "This time, I brought hundreds of city guards under my command, and at the order of Countess, we went directly to Holm's house."

  "After the looting was finished, the countess gathered all the treasures and carriages in the inner hall of the Holmer family. At that time, the countess drove out all our soldiers, leaving only the countess and her two brothers there."

  Ji'en heard this and muttered under his breath: "This stinky cheap person, really is shameless."

  Li Te continued, "We were outside catching those people from the Holm family. But no one expected that suddenly the Holm family's mansion caught fire. With this fire, everyone immediately went to rescue the countess."

  "But we hadn't even had time to go inside when we heard the terrifying explosion. More than half of the entire Holm family's buildings were completely destroyed."

  Li Te painfully said: "When we found the bodies of the three earls, their bodies had already been blown to pieces. All three were dead."

  "All right, then have someone bring in the bodies of my grandmother and the others, and you go back and rest first." Keen ordered directly.

  "Yes." Li Te's response was extremely concise at this moment.

  Everyone understands that with Lady Weddell's death, the entire Cheltenham estate will absolutely fall into the hands of this fourteen-year-old child.

  When Li Te and his group arrived, they were presented with a corpse that had been blown up and broken into pieces.

  Keane and Jennie were now completely certain... they weren't dreaming, that odious Mrs. Wyde was really dead. From today on, they felt completely at ease.

  "Lei Ge." Zanni suddenly came to his senses and looked at Lin Lei, "Thank you."

  Lambert also reacted and looked at Lin Lei, gratefully saying: "Mr. Lei, you've given us good news, this is indeed a good piece of news, lifesaving news!"

  "What is this?"

  Keen was stunned, "What good news and bad news? Ah!"

  Keane also reacted.

  "Lei Ge, you just came in from outside, didn't you?" Keen asked in a low voice.

  "Right." Lin Lei nodded.

  "Then you..." A smile spread across Keen's face.

  Lin Lei also burst out laughing: "Looking at how anxious you are, I'll just help you solve this trouble, okay? Now, go to sleep well and wait for your turn to inherit the position of City Master."

  Lin Lei said and then turned his head towards his residence.

  Jenny, Keane and Lambert exchanged disbelieving and astonished glances, they really wanted to cheer loudly. But with the bodies of the three Mrs. Weeds still beside them, cheering now seemed a bit out of place.

  "Boss, is it solved?" Beibei was lying on the ground with her eyes half-closed.

  Lin Lei smiled: "Yes, it's settled."

  For Lin Lei, someone like Mrs. Vidal is not even worthy of being an opponent, and the so-called small tricks of Mrs. Vidal are simply a joke in Lin Lei's eyes.

  Forget your conspiracy plan, just kill you directly, and settle everything once and for all.

  "What's with the explosion?" Beibei asked in puzzlement.

  "I don't know," Lin Lei shook his head and said, "I took action to directly kill Lady Wade and her two brothers, then a fire magic ignited the house. Afterwards... I returned alone. But who would have thought that just as I arrived back at the castle, I heard that intense explosion."

  Lin Lei didn't know that the mansion actually had a secret laboratory hidden in its walls, where Holm's experiments were conducted. Many strange and exotic materials and ingredients were stored there. When Lin Lei set fire to the laboratory, it ignited some special materials, causing a violent explosion.

  "Don't know?" Beibei hesitated for a moment, "Oh, then go to sleep."

  "Alright, sleep."

  Lin Lei also lay down on the bed and rested directly.

  Mrs. Vede's three siblings died just like that, dying suddenly one night. This kind of thing was a great earthquake for the city of Chel County. For Jennie and Keen, it was an exciting sleepless night.

  But for Lin Lei, it was just a small matter.

  At this moment, the Holm family's mansion was still ablaze, and many city guards were still working hard to put out the fire...
