“They want to deal with me?”
Hearing this, Leones didn’t take it seriously.
Because during this period, it wasn’t only Fatuma’s family that he had offended.
They wanted to die. Leones would just wait for them.
“Okay, I see.” Leones nodded calmly, not taking this seriously at all.
Seeing Leones being so calm, Marie said nothing more.
“Fairy was by your side to help you. And I heard that you are powerful. It should be fine, but you still have to be careful.”
The Johnson family used all the power of the four major families simultaneously. If the Roberts family hadn’t made a mistake, Fatuma would have even sent out the Five Major Families: the Peggy family, the Back family, the Wilson family, the Roberts family, and the Polly family.
This battle was something Marie had never seen before.
It could be seen that the opponent was so strong that even the Johnson family was afraid of it.
“I have one last question.” Marie blinked her curious eyes and asked, “How did you subdue Fairy and let it stay by your side?”
Even with the efforts of three generations of the Roberts family, this giant snake that had been around for hundreds of years could not be completely subdued, and it was enshrined as a fairy.
But in the end, the snake still killed the master and left.
Not only Marie but the entire Roberts family were very puzzled by this.
Was there anyone in the world who understood snakes better than the Roberts family?
“I promised it I could help it turn into a dragon!” Leones saw Marie as being honest, so he thought hiding it from her was unnecessary.
“Turn into a dragon?” Marie was shocked after hearing this.
This was a reason she had never thought of.
But for the snake, it was an absolute temptation and could not even be refused.
However, Marie looked worried and said calmly, “If you deceive Fairy, the consequences will be unimaginable.”
In Marie’s view, the so–called dragon transformation was too illusory, as if it was a gimmick, and it was like trying to deceive Fairy, and the secret would be revealed one day.
And then what would he tell the snake?
“Haha…” Leones laughed, saying, “You don’t need to worry about that.
“Since I said it, I will do it!”
“If there’s nothing else, please come back. Thank you for letting me know.”
Leones thanked Marie, turned around, picked up the unconscious Ariella, and walked away slowly.
Looking at Leones going away, Marie blinked with great curiosity.
“Is he sure he can do it?
“I’m also looking forward to the day when Fairy can transform into a dragon!”

Chapter 123 New Clues
Send the unconscious Ariella back to the villa at the foot of the mountain.
After settling her down, Leones returned home and continued to concentrate on refining the elixir.
Soon, Veronica came late.
“Ariella!”
As soon as Veronica entered the room, seeing her friend lying on the sofa, she immediately breathed a sigh of relief.
Fortunately, Veronica came in time, and nothing happened to Ariella.
However, as soon as Veronica entered the room, she was keenly aware that there were signs of outsiders breaking in.
Immediately afterward, Veronica watched the surveillance video at home and saw the assassins in black breaking in.
Veronica was shocked when she saw this.
“Ariella! Are you okay!”
Veronica suddenly became nervous again, worried that Ariella lying on the sofa might have been killed.
“Fortunately… She just passes out…”
Veronica hurriedly came to the sofa, checked Ariella out, and finally felt relieved.
“It’s strange. Those assassins actually let Ariella go?”
Veronica rechecked the surveillance video and found that when the assassins broke in, Ariella had already escaped in advance.
Then, there was a scene of the assassins chasing her out one after another. And then there was no clue.
What happened next?
Veronica had no way of knowing.
But Veronica saw Ariella was obviously saved. Then, the one escaped.
“Who is the one?”
Veronica looked out the window, and the first one she thought of was naturally her neighbor on the mountain.
“Could it be Kenton?”
At this moment, Ariella, who was in a coma, screamed, suddenly woke up, and shouted, “Kenton! Run. There is a big snake!”
Ariella sat up in shock. Her heart was still beating wildly. She was unable to recover from the horrific scene.
“Ariella, don’t be afraid! It’s okay. I’m back!” Veronica quickly held Ariella’s hand and comforted her.
“Snake! Snake!” Ariella was still distracted and kept saying there was a snake. The giant python seemed to have left a profound imprint on her heart.
“There are no snakes. I’m here. Don’t be afraid!” Veronica hurriedly hugged Ariella, who was trembling with fear, and stroked her back. “This is home. There are no snakes.”
Chapter 123 New Clues
Gradually, Ariella recovered from her panic.
When Ariella saw Veronica had returned, she lay on Veronica’s shoulder and cried for a while, completely venting the fear in her heart.
Then, when Ariella calmed down completely, she told what happened just now.
“You mean… There is a giant python on the mountain!?” Veronica was also suddenly startled.
It was because Veronica suddenly remembered the strange scream she had heard in the middle of the night a few days ago and the terrifying shadow shaped like a mountain.
Was there really a giant python near Mountain Gloriland?
“That snake swallowed those people alive!” Recalling this, Ariella still couldn’t stop trembling. “Verone, Kenton… Will Kenton also be…”
Ariella worried that the snake would swallow all the living creatures indiscriminately.
“Probably not.” Veronica quickly comforted Ariella, “If Kenton is also swallowed, why are you okay? It can’t be the snake that sent you back to the villa, right?”
Moreover, Veronica suspected that the giant python might have something to do with Kenton. Veronica once again became suspicious. Who was this mysterious neighbor she had never met before?
Although Veronica’s analysis was reasonable, Ariella was still uneasy and even insisted on going to the villa on the mountain to visit.
But as soon as Ariella got off the sofa, she fell to the ground. It turned out that her legs were weak from fear.
In the end, Veronica assured Ariella that Veronica would go to the villa on the mountain for Ariella later to see if Kenton was safe.
“Why don’t you get some more sleep?” Veronica put Ariella on the bed. “Leave the rest to me.” After coming out of Ariella’s room, Veronica was just going to investigate the mountain to see if there were any signs of a giant python coming in and out.
At this time, the adjutant, Lois, called Veronica.
“What’s the matter?” Veronica answered the phone.
“Your Excellency, although the clues on the Lewis Club have been broken, another case has made new progress.”
Lois hurriedly reported to Veronica.
“About the two pink diamonds you asked to investigate last time, we finally found the source of the buyer.
“The owner of the pink diamonds used to be Ashley, the daughter–in–law in the Bloom family and Leones‘ stepmother!
“Furthermore, after investigation, the identities of the seven deceased are also closely related to Ashley. They seem to be thugs working for her!”
“Ashley?” Veronica was shocked when she heard this. “Could the car accident five years ago have something to do with her?”
