The War God's Homecoming
Chapter 317 Eleanor Lawson

Chapter 317 Eleanor Lawson

The woman appeared to be in her mid-twenties, with a strikingly beautiful appearance, graceful figure, and a touch of makeup enhancing her natural beauty. She exuded an air of nobility.

She wore a long green dress over a black coat, her wavy hair cascading to one side. Around her neck, she wore a brilliant green gemstone necklace. She clearly belonged to a prominent family. Following closely behind her was an elderly man with a robust physique, his body surrounded by a swirling aura of energy. He was obviously not an ordinary martial artist. Behind them were two sturdy men dressed in black, both with tense expressions.

"Who is this? Do you know her?" Billy asked Frostblade.

In fact, in terms of facial features and overall aura, Frostblade was no less impressive than the woman before them. However, Frostblade usually preferred martial attire over fancy dresses, so she didn't stand out as much. sᴇaʀᴄh thᴇ Findɴovel.ɴet website on Gøøglᴇ to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality.

"She's Eleanor Lawson, the young lady of the Lawson family. She's renowned in Earthford for her beauty and talent, and she's also a martial cultivator." Frostblade replied, pausing for a moment before adding with a teasing tone, "Boss, I'm acquainted with her. If you'd like to get to know her, I can introduce you. She's still single!"

"Haha, that's the spirit! A little humor adds fun to life sometimes!" Billy chuckled.

Frostblade giggled in response.

"Frostblade?" As they were about to continue their meal, Eleanor Lawson's peripheral vision caught sight of Frostblade, and she expressed surprise.

"Frostblade, you're having dinner here too?" Eleanor approached the two not far away, first giving Billy a glance and then turning to Frostblade as she spoke.

She was somewhat surprised, knowing Frostblade well enough that she never went out for dinner alone with a guy.

"Could it be her boyfriend?" Eleanor thought.

"Eleanor, what a coincidence. Why are you having dinner so late today?" Frostblade exchanged a glance with Billy, then smiled as she stood up. She didn't have many friends in Earthford, and Eleanor Lawson was one of the few she could count on.

"I had a meeting here with someone," Eleanor replied, then turned to Billy. "Frostblade, is this your boyfriend?"

"No, he's my boss, Billy Gardner."

"Oh, so you're Mr Gardner. Nice to meet you, I'm Eleanor Lawson. It's a pleasure to make your acquaintance." Eleanor said, offering a friendly smile as she extended her hand.

As she spoke, she felt a peculiar presence emanating from Billy, an invisible pressure. Despite being well-acquainted with influential figures, even some of Earthford's elites, she had never encountered anyone who exuded such an aura. The way Frostblade addressed him as "boss" piqued her curiosity about Billy's identity.

"Nice to meet you too, Miss Lawson." Billy replied with a smile.

He hadn't expected Eleanor Lawson to possess such formidable strength; she had already reached the level of a Battle God. The Lawson family's ability to rival the Riley family indicated their extraordinary status.

"Frostblade, I heard that SHADOW is investigating the Dittman family's case. Any progress?" Eleanor Lawson asked, shifting the conversation.

"Not yet," Frostblade shook her head.

"These people have no conscience. If we catch them, they should be severely punished." Eleanor said indignantly. "By the way, Frostblade, since you're friends with the young lady from the Dittman family, do you know who they have offended?" Frostblade suddenly recalled the ongoing investigation.

"I'm not sure. I had dinner with her the day before yesterday and didn't notice anything unusual," Eleanor Lawson replied, her face showing a touch of sadness. "I can't believe something like this happened. Even if they made enemies, it shouldn't have resulted in the annihilation of her entire family."

After expressing her concerns, Eleanor Lawson continued, "Frostblade, this matter is definitely not simple. Please be cautious. If you need any assistance, don't hesitate to call me." "Thank you, Eleanor."

"Mr Gardner, excuse me for a moment." Eleanor said as she prepared to leave. "I'll treat both of you to a meal another time. Please do me the honor."

"Sure, take care." Frostblade responded.

"Boss, do you think Eleanor Lawson might have developed feelings for you at first sight?" Frostblade, with a teasing smile, gave Billy half a cup of tea. "I feel she's looking at you with different eyes." She continued.

Billy tapped her forehead lightly with his chopsticks. "Let's eat!"

"I'm serious." Frostblade said, sticking her tongue out before enjoying the meal.

After a while, the entrance to the restaurant echoed with hurried footsteps, and a group of men entered.

Leading the group was a middle-aged man in his fifties with a fierce countenance, holding two health balls. He exuded a menacing aura from head to toe. Behind him were two slender men, one tall and one short, both with expressionless faces that occasionally flashed with a dangerous glint. Following them were more than ten men, all emanating a fierce presence. They clearly weren't ordinary individuals. "He's here too!" Frostblade turned her head to look at the leading man, furrowing her brows slightly.

"Do you know him?" Billy asked.

"He's called Blood Panther, also known as 'Panther Lord.' He controls the Grey Zone in Earthford." Frostblade introduced. "We've been keeping an eye on him for a while now. If it weren't for other distractions, we would have dealt with him months ago."

"How's his relationship with the Riley family?" Billy nodded in acknowledgment.

"He's essentially a vanguard for them."

As Frostblade spoke, she seemed to realize something and looked at Billy. "Boss, are you suspecting that he might be involved in looking for Eleanor Lawson?"

"I just have a hunch," Billy picked up his teacup and took a sip. "If my guess is right, your friend might be in a bit of trouble."

Frostblade was surprised.

"Boss, Eleanor Lawson has just broke through to the Battle God realm recently, and her personal bodyguard is also at the mid-stage of the Battle God realm," she explained. "While Blood Panther is quite powerful, he's only a Half-Step Battle God in terms of cultivation..."

"But those two behind him, concealing their martial auras, are both at the pinnacle of the Battle God realm. Moreover, they exude a strong bloodlust. They're not ordinary people." Billy interrupted her. Frostblade was astonished. "How did Blood Panther manage to recruit such high-level martial artists?"

"It's not necessarily his people." Billy remarked.

"Should we go and take a look?" Frostblade nodded in agreement with Billy's analysis.

"Let's wait a bit longer. We don't know for sure if they're here to find her." Billy suggested. "Let's finish our meal first."

"Okay." Frostblade agreed.

Before they could continue eating, a cry of panic rang out from the staircase entrance.

"Run! There's a murder upstairs!"

In an instant, chaos erupted, with most of the diners rushing towards the restaurant's exit, their faces filled with fear and alarm.
