"Keith, it's too early to thank Mister Wolf," One of the Elders, Otto, who was next to Keith sighed with a frown."Too early? What do you mean by that, Otto?" Keith needed clarification. "Keith, I'll be frank. The Nortons are our biggest business competitors. They are not good people! Not only had Mister Wolf exposed Marvin Norton's scheme, but he also injured him! He embarrassed the Nortons! If my guess is right, the Nortons won't let this matter rest!" "Oh!" Keith and Shally were at a loss for words. What Otto said made a lot of sense. The Summers and the Nortons were rivals. For the past two years, the Nortons were constantly trying to take the Summers down.Leon ruined their plans and even hurt Marvin in the process. How could the Nortons easily let this matter go?"Well, no matter! Marvin Norton tried to set Shally up. They deserved what they got! They have no one but themselves to blame. If the Nortons are not going to let this slide, we'll fight back!" Keith said coldly.
"Sir!"Just when Keith and the Elders were discussing the matter of the Nortons, one of their collateral descendants rushed in looking flustered."Something terrible has happened! I have just received news that the Nortons have gathered many fighters. They are coming over right now!" The collateral descendant reported."What?" Keith and the others were shocked. Some even sprang up on their feet.After Otto's assessment, although they acknowledged that the Nortons would not give up that easily, they were still shocked to hear that the Nortons were coming over with fighters."That's terrible!""Mister Wolf is in trouble!" Shally looked aghast. She knew that the Nortons were on the same level as the Summers. They were both third-tier ancient martial arts families. Their powers were roughly the same.Under usual circumstances, the Nortons would not have used force on the Summers, to prevent them from incurring unnecessary losses.The Nortons were acting out of the ordinary, leading
After Shally and the two Elders left, Keith said to another Elder, "Clifford, go right now to the Jansons. Tell them about the Nortons attacking us. See if they could send some support to help us solve this matter."They were as strong as the Nortons. Keith was not afraid of them. The only issue was that the Nortons were being supported by the Central Boss and the Micahs.The fact that the Nortons gathered a group of fighters to attack them meant that they most probably had the support of the Micahs. Or worse, they could have used the Micahs as an excuse to attack them!The Micahs were much wealthier and more powerful than them. They could barely compete with them!Just to be on the safe side, Keith was prepared to ask the Jansons for support and to get them to interfere in this matter. This was to ensure the safety of the Summers!"Okay!" Clifford, the Third Elder, responded and left in a hurry to look for the Jansons."Alright, gather our remaining descendants and prepare to fi
"Mister Wolf, this isn't the time to be reckless! Although your power level isn't too low, the Nortons have a lot of fighters! "They are all either at the Advanced Emperor State or Peak Emperor State. Some of them are even in the Semi Almighty State. You really should hide! Better to be cautious."Shally tried to persuade Leon.After witnessing the fight between Leon and Marvin, she realized that Leon was indeed quite powerful. His power level might be Advanced Emperor State or beyond.However, the overall strength of many of the ancient martial arts families in the central region was much more powerful than the other four regions.A third-tier ancient martial arts family like the Summers or the Nortons was as strong as a second-tier ancient martial arts family in other regions.Many of them in the Summers or the Nortons were at the Advanced Emperor State or beyond. Some were even at the Semi Almighty State!This was not something Leon could fight against! Shally did not think
"Yes! Mister Wolf, the Micahs are one of the Four Major Families in the central region. They have many martial artists in the Almighty State! Many of them are either Advanced Almighty State or Peak Almighty State!"If you choose to face the Nortons head-on, that means you're also going up against the Micahs! It will only be death for you! Which is why you should run away and hide. This is the best choice."Seeing how surprised Leon was, Shally thought that he was shocked by the Central Boss the Micahs. She took advantage of that and tried to persuade him to run away once more, hoping that Leon would give up fighting the Nortons head-on and send himself to death.However, before she could finish her sentence, what Leon said next caught her completely off guard!"Amazing! That's just amazing! I was trying to find the time to meet the Central Boss and the Micahs! I never thought that they would come find me instead! The universe is helping me!"Leon was delighted. The reason he was i
"Dude, watch your tongue! The Central Boss is one of our most powerful figures in the central region. No one would dare to offend him and the Micahs!""You better watch what you say about Central Boss. If the Micahs heard about it, they would bring you trouble."The Elders quickly reminded Leon to not be too arrogant."Look at how frightened you two are! It's just the Central Boss!""You and the Summers might be afraid of him and the Micahs, but Leon isn't!"Cynthia and Ruth could no longer sit and watch Shally and the Elders constantly undermining Leon's abilities. They stood up for Leon.They knew much about Leon's powers!Previously, even the leader of the Eight Criminals, Brahma, lost to Leon. He was beaten up so badly that he had to flee!Not only that, the Southern Boss and the Spears as well as the Western Boss and the Fermers all lost to Leon!Leon was so powerful that they did not think he would ever lose to the Central Boss. At the same time, they thought that the Ce
Outside, the Summers' manor.When Clarence Norton, the head of the Nortons, arrived with the group of fighters, Keith, the Summers' descendants, and fighters were already waiting for them.The Nortons stopped about 20 meters away from them. They were at a standoff.Clarence did not only lead more than 30 elite fighters, but he also took the victim, Marvin, along.Marvin was heavily injured by Leon over at the Treasure Hunt. He was in a wheelchair with a cast over his broken arm. He broke a few of his rib cages too. He looked pathetic!"Clarence, there are rules! We are merely business competitors! If you have any problem with it, we deal with it in business!"Yet, now you broke the rules. You led a huge group of men to invade the Summers' manor! How do you explain yourself!" Keith barked at Clarence angrily."Keith, your granddaughter got in cahoots with a bastard. He hurt my grandson, Marvin! He was cruel! I'm only taking men here to help my grandson seek justice! The Summers h
"You Nortons? What a joke! Clarence, the Summers are just as strong as the Nortons. You don't have what it takes to take us down!" Keith snickered. He looked at Clarence with condescension, completely ignoring Clarence's threats."That might not be true! If it was in the past, the Nortons might not be able to do anything to the Summers, but we are not the same as in the past!" Clarence sneered."What the hell do you mean by that?" Keith furrowed his brows in confusion, unable to process what Clarence was saying."Ezra, come out! Show Keith your powers!"Clarence did not reply to Keith. He merely turned around and called a person out.The person in black was no one else but the second grandson of the Norton family, Ezra Norton."Okay." Ezra walked out and released a Semi Almighty State aura. The aura immediately loomed toward Keith!Not only that, but Clarence also emitted the same powerful aura at Keith!"Two of you are in the Semi Almighty State? How is this possible?" Keith w
