Life After Prison by Silencieux novel Chapter 1225

Without fail, Leon's wives quickly told Peter what they found out but they left the real reason why Leon decided to kill Severin because they were ashamed to let other people know it was another woman who made Leon involved in the matter. All they said was Leon and David were good friends and he wanted to seek revenge for David but did not expect to be killed.

"The Nightsky Gang. They don't have a good reputation."

Once Peter knew what happened, he asked, "As the mayor of Nine Dragon City, how could he help a gang leader seek revenge? I heard the Nightsky Gang were a bunch of unreasonable mobs and they made many enemies."

"But, Mister Peter, the guy killed the mayor under your watch. If you decide to do nothing about it, what would the others think of you?"

After a moment of silence, Macy said, "You're the one who promoted Leon. Over the years, we have given you many spiritual herbs. We…"

However, Peter was not convinced. He smiled bitterly. "Ma'am, it's not that I don't want to help you. You know how close Peter and I were. I'm also very angry an outsider came here and killed Leon."

He paused for a while. "So are all of you. You have let your anger affect your judgment and obviously, you wish that I could seek revenge for Leon. But think about it, Leon has three level eight warrior kings and three level seven warrior kings. And they were all killed too. Yes, my province mansion is stronger but not by a lot. Even if I decide to seek revenge, the chance of killing the killer is very slim."

At that time, the Great Elder of the province mansion nodded. "None of the level eight warrior kings was able to escape. Do you know what that means? It means the killer could be a level nine warrior king. If that's real, the chance of us winning is near to zero, even if all of the fighters in the province mansion try to kill the killer together."

Peter was shocked. "It seems like this guy is far stronger than we think. If he's just a governor, the other big shots won't be bothered to maintain a good relationship with him, especially the Four Great War Gods. They are very proud and don't normally care about other people. If they are really friends with Severin, it totally proves Severin is a very strong guy."

Leon's wives exchanged looks with each other. By now, they already knew Peter was never going to help them seek revenge. Even if Peter felt humiliated, he could only endure it because he knew he could not afford to offend Severin.

What Peter said next was within their expectation. He said, "There's nothing we can do. You should leave and go on to arrange Peter's burial."
