The Almighty Lord Caspian novel Chapter 739

"Greenton? Who exactly are they?" Caspian asked. He was familiar with a few gangs, but he didn't know much about Greenton.

Willow and the others didn't know about Greenton either.

"They were a martial arts gang, and they were skilled in swordplay. They were famous for that," Tom answered.

"Is that so? I've never heard of them," Caspian said after a pause. "Why did you hide the fact that you're part of Greenton? Why did you come to Southlake City?"

"They were wiped out overnight. All I could do was seek refuge with some distant relatives."

"Oh? Just what enemies did Greenton have for them to meet such a cruel fate?" Caspian asked.

"I've told Laina about Skyarch Palace. I guess she didn't tell you about it." Tom hadn't intended to hide this from Caspian, so he proceeded to explain everything.

Caspian and the others were shocked after hearing Tom's story. They hadn't expected Tom to have such a pitiful backstory.

"What an amazing life story! This is perfect material for my next book!" Zoey exclaimed.

"Why did Laina fail to mention this? When she comes back, I'll have a word with her," Caspian snarled.

"I'm sure Captain Laina thought you were occupied, so she didn't tell you," Aria explained.

By the time Laina caught wind of the situation with Skyarch Palace, Caspian had already gone to Dhord City. And by the time he ended his meeting there, Caspian had immediately assigned Macy and her to a mission.

That was why Laina hadn't told him about Skyarch Palace then. She wanted to investigate the situation before telling Caspian.

"Skyarch Palace is quite the mysterious organization. Do you know who's behind them?" Caspian asked.

"No idea, but I think they want to unify the martial arts world. Didn't the Traditional Martial Arts Association get decimated? It also seems that Skyarch Palace popped out of nowhere," Tom pointed out.

"That's strange. Logically speaking, my intelligence network should have some information on them," Caspian said, puzzled.

"The person behind Skyarch Palace is an enigma. It's already incredible that he recruited so many skilled martial artists.

"I heard that they have thousands of martial artists. With their numbers, no ordinary organization can go against them," Tom said.

Caspian was suddenly reminded of the guards by Balthazar's side back at the king's residence. The presence they exuded could only belong to a martial artist.

Caspian wondered if they had ties with Skyarch Palace.

He was only making a guess. He didn't know much about them, after all.

Logically speaking, a martial artist shouldn't be involved with royalty. However, Caspian was sure of one thing—something must have changed at the king's residence.

He needed Laina back this instant so he could begin his investigation into the workings of the king's residence.

"Is the Black Moon that you spoke about that powerful? By the way, you must guard the Black Moon Technique Scroll well. Make sure it doesn't fall into the wrong hands," Caspian said.

Caspian knew what chaos awaited the world if such a powerful blade and technique were to come together.

"Understood. I've already hidden the Black Moon Technique Scroll away. No one but me knows where it is," Tom said.

Caspian didn't continue to question him. The scroll belonged to Tom, after all. As long as the Black Moon Technique Scroll didn't fall into Skyarch Palace's hands, it was not his place to pry about it.
