“Please calm down, Mr. Jantz!” Leonardo tried to pacify Zachariah.
“Our top priority now is to gather the herbs for Crescent Sect so that Master Venicus can get started on the longevity pills. Jared is but a small fry, so let's ignore him for the time being. A few prominent families in the Warriors Alliance are already eyeing the Whitaker family’s assets. Phoenix Regiment has even started taking over some of those assets. We have to get to them quickly before the rest. Otherwise, we will not be able to raise the necessary funds for the herbs!” he said.
“Phoenix Regiment... They are always going against us! It's only a matter of time before I remove them from the Warriors Alliance and chase them out of Summerbank!” Zachariah narrowed his eyes in resentment.
“I'm going to call for a Warriors Alliance meeting tomorrow. If they don't do as I demand, we will have to display our powers and beat them into submission!” He slammed down on the table in fury, breaking it into smithereens.
Meanwhile, Jared was driving back from the Jantz residence and was on his way back to Lizbeth's place when he noticed two cars tailing him.
“Oh? Seems like the Jantzs are quick to act!” He gave a condescending sneer and stopped his car by the roadside.
Thinking that he had to face them sooner or later anyway, he had no intention to run away from the Jantz family.
The two cars that were tailing him stopped behind him as expected. Four big men alighted from the second car and hurriedly went over to open the door of the first car.
A bearded man, aged around fifty years old, came out of the car as his four followers stood in line respectfully. The man was Master Iron, the head of Iron Gate Academy.
Jared frowned in puzzlement, as those men did not seem to be from the Jantz family.
“Master, he's the one who killed Jason!” one of the men pointed at Jared and furiously said.
