“Mr. Lund, I don’t want to trouble you this time. I will personally give Travis a thorough beating. Just as I once drove the Houghton family out of Juxshire, I will do it again. And this time, I won’t give the Houghton family another chance.”

After Alastair broke through to the peak of Manifestor, his spirits were significantly lifted, making him appear even younger than Emmett.

At the same time, his confidence had also significantly increased.

The feuds within these martial artists’ families were undoubtedly under the watchful eyes of the Martial Arts Alliance. Otherwise, if someone were to wipe out an entire family in a fit of desperation, it would result in a major tragedy.

The competitors in the martial arts tournament had already placed their wager. The loser would have to leave Juxshire, and furthermore, ninety percent of the loser’s assets would be handed over to the victor.

Many years ago, Alastair had once fought against the Houghton family’s ancestor, Robert

Houghton. At that time, Alastair emerged victorious, but he ultimately showed mercy, only taking half of the Houghton family’s assets.

Unexpectedly, after all these years, the Houghton family had returned to Juxshire and repeatedly provoked the Ginger family.

Although the Ginger family was a family of martial artists, many of their younger generation were ordinary people. If the Houghton family were to employ dirty tricks one day, eliminating at few key members of the Ginger family, even the Martial Arts Alliance might not be able to uncover it.

Therefore, this tough battle was one that Alastair had no choice but to accept.

Alastair only regretted not having struck the Houghton family harder back then.

Glancing at Emmett, who was equally excited beside him, Alastair quickly shifted his gaze back to Emrys, asking. “Mr. Lund, during the time I was breaking through, this guy didn’t neglect you, did. C0ntent © 2024 (N/ô)velDrama.Org.

he?”

Emrys also glanced at Emmett, his eyebrows slightly furrowed. This immediately frightened Emmett to the point where he didn’t dare to say a word.

After scaring Emmett, Emrys’s brows quickly relaxed, and he said with a smile, “No. This old geezer was quite sensible. He was busy serving me. He was quite diligent.”

“That’s good. That’s good.” Alastair also breathed a sigh of relief. “If I find out this guy has. disrespected you, I’ll definitely smash his head!”

On the day of the martial arts tournament, in the heart of the vast square, a circular stone

platform stood tall. Its age was lost to time, but it could be said that this platform had witnessed the rise and fall, the prosperity and decline of countless martial arts families in Juxshire.

It was a symbol of the changing times.

The area surrounding the stone platform was already filled with spectators. On the outskirts of the square, some members of the Martial Arts Alliance were maintaining order, ensuring that the square wasn’t overrun with too many idle onlookers.

Juxshire fell under the jurisdiction of the Drieso Martial Arts Alliance, and the umpire for this occasion was a Martial Arts Alliance minister named Soren Shields, a man with a square face.

His cultivation base might not have been as advanced as Alastair, Travis, and others, but his status was undeniable, and no one dared to offend him.

Interestingly enough, the crowd gathered around the stone platform to watch the battle was largely composed of the prominent families from Jusshire. Their positioning was quite intriguing. At a glance, it was clear that there were significantly more people standing on the side of the Houghton family than the Ginger family.

Although there were many people forming a circle around the stone platform, there were two distinct half-meter wide dividing lines near the Ginger family’s position. If one were to understand it as a pie chart, the ratio of the Houghton family s position to the Ginger family’s position was roughly eight to two,

This represented a certain position, where the majority of the prominent families in Juxshire held the Houghton family in high esteem.

At this juncture, those who still aligned themselves with the Ginger family were truly families with deep connections. Essentially, they were prepared to stand united or fall together with th Ginger family

Furthermore, Stefan was seated in a wheelchair, right beside Emmett, wearing a sour expression and refraining from initiating any conversation with Emmett

With a remorseful smile, Emmett said. “Stef, 1 misunderstood you the day before yesterday. I sincerely apologize. I never expected that you would actually bring me such a tremendous surprise.”

“Hmph!”

Stefan snorted arrogantly, stating, “After all these years of friendship, you still don’t trust me. You even had the audacity to laugh in front of me. If it weren’t for Dr. Lund’s sake. I would have sided with the Houghton family long ago.”
