Chapter 228 Joining Forces
“Why are you only telling me about Caspian’s background now?” Wylie asked as he fixed his eyes on The Reaper.
“Caspian killed Leonardo and many of my friends. He’s even trying to go up against you now, Lord Jennings, so I hope you will eliminate him! By doing so, not only will you be upholding your dignity, but you’ll also be avenging Sir Leon!” The Reaper declared fiercely.
“Hah!” Wylie scoffed.
The Reaper had not given up yet.
In the past, Wylie would have found some excuse to brush off The Reaper.
But now, Caspian was a threat to Mahayan Pavilion, and he would not be happy if he did not get rid of Caspian!
“You said it yourself. Caspian has a mysterious background. He’s not someone I can kill just because I want to!” Wylie retorted.
He was not a fool. After seeing how arrogant Caspian was yesterday, he knew that Caspian had to come from an incredibly powerful background.
Also, he knew Leonardo’s death was definitely not as simple as it seemed.
Leonardo was a tier–three expert, and The Reaper was also an expert in the use of inner strength. Yet, one had died at Caspian’s hands, and the other fled to Easton–too afraid to take revenge.
Anyone with half a mind could tell that Caspian was no pushover.
It would be foolish for Wylie to attack Caspian before figuring out just who the latter truly was.
And as the master of Mahayan Pavilion, Wylie would not make such a silly mistake.
Leonardo had been killed because of his carelessness. He
Caspian, but in the end, all of his men died at Caspian’s le could easily deal with
The Reaper was not surprised by Wylie’s hesitance. He saw it coming.
“Lord Jennings, I know of a way to get rid of Caspian!” The Reaper declared.
“Tell me quickly!” Wylie urged.
“Caspian has offended many people, including the York family from Dhord City. We can find at way to ally with them to kill Caspian!” The Reaper shared.
In reality, he had come up with the plan to deal with Caspian a long time ago.

As long as Wylie reached out to the York family from Dhord City and suggested a partnership, there was a high chance the family would agree.
“Oh? Is that so? I didn’t expect Caspian to have so many enemies. He even offended the York family from Dhord City, huh? Guess he’s done for this time!” Wylie remarked with a sneer.
Although the Yorks of Dhord City were not one of the top families, they were still considered an elite family.
If Mahayan Pavilion joined forces with the Yorks, even if everyone else in Easton worked together, the latter would still fail to defeat the former.
“Mr. Flynn, I’ll have to trouble you to make the trip to Dhord City and get in touch with the Yorks,” Wylie said to Homer.
“Yes, Lord Jennings. I’ll go right away!” Homer replied with a nod.
At last, The Reaper exhaled in relief.
As long as Mahayan Pavilion and the Yorks worked together, Caspian would not be leaving Easton alive!
As soon as Celestia returned home to her family in Dhord City, she immediately informed her father, Wendell York, of what happened in Southlake City. He was the current head of the York family in Dhord City.
“Dad! Someone bullied me! You have to stand up for me! That guy Caspian Lynch not only killed Leonardo, but he even made us lose so many assets! And worst of all, he brutally murdered Mr. Bassett!” Celestia reported.
“How dare he!” Wendell fumed as he slammed his hand against the stone table in front of him.
“Who’s this Caspian Lynch? What’s his background? How dare he go against us? Does he think we’re pushovers?” Wendell continued raging.
He was not furious over Adam’s death or his daughter getting bullied. What infuriated him the most was Leonardo’s death. It meant that the York family in Dhord City would be losing a lot
of resources.
Throughout these years, the Yorks managed to rise to the ranks of a lesser–known elite family in Dhord City mainly because Leonardo had given them most of the resources he gathered in the Two Lakes area.
Now that Leonardo was dead, the York family was basically losing all of the businesses and resources in the area.
For the time being, it would not have much of an effect on the Yorks, but in the long run, their
This was especially true of Leonardo, who was about to reach his peak as a tier–three expert, but he, too, had been killed by Caspian.
