Nash shot his father a stink eye. He was the Warden of the Northern
Territory. Could he not speak more properly?
However, Philix did not notice Nashâs expression and continued
speaking to himself, âThe Klein and Jackson families were once
affiliated with the Young family. I suspect the main reason for their
betrayal was also the Dream City.â
He paused, his tone turning serious as he added, âThe Jackson family
may not be difficult to deal with, but the Klein family is a bit tricky. They have a very powerful ancestor!â
Nash nodded. âIâve heard something about that, but it shouldnât be a
problem. Give me some time and Iâll make sure to take care of him!â
Walking ahead of Nash, Philix fell into silence. He did not try to dissuade Nash this time as he knew he would, without a doubt,
confront the Klein family.
After a moment of silence, Philix said hoarsely, âMy original plan was to retire at the age of 50 and then pursue the Klein family with the Heavenly Doors Association until they were dealt with.â
âChanged your mind?â Nash asked with a smile.
âIâm 48 this year, still two years away from retirement. But your appearance has made me want to change my plans,â Philix replied deeply, the expression on his face complex.
Nash hesitated for a moment but quickly caught up. Though his
father now appeared somewhat indecisive with a hint of melancholy
Chapp
to his being, he was still the Warden of the Northern Territory. He was
a formidable warrior who had dominated the battlefield.
Nash did not believe his father would give up on the deep-seated
grudge against the Young family. Even if he did, it would only be
because of matters concerning the nation.
The entire journey down the mountain, Philix said nothing. Nash did
not ask any questions either. Stellar and Melody were standing
together at the foot of the mountain. Nash noticed Stellar was not
looking too good. He appeared somewhat worried.
âWarden,â Stellar came up as soon as he saw Philix.
Philix waved his hand to interrupt him, saying, âLetâs go home.â
Stellar nodded.
Outside the scenic area, Felicity and Jaxon were already waiting by
the armored MPV.
âUncle!â Felicity happily approached and hugged Philixâs arm. She
then looked at Nash sweetly. âAnd my cousin!â
Nash smiled faintly. âWhen did you guys arrive?â
âAbout half an hour ago. Stellar got a call and immediately brought us over!â Felicity replied.
Nash felt puzzled. Both he and his father had turned off their phones. Who could have called Stellar? Thinking about how his father had. interrupted Stellar earlier, Nash had a guess.
Someone had attempted to assassinate his father but was dealt with by the skilled protector in secret.

After boarding the MPV, Philix said, âHead to the Windsor Mansion!â
âWarden, we should go back. Just this afternoon, several Heavenly Doors elders intercepted three waves of assassins. I donât want you
to take risks.â
âLetâs go to Windsor Mansion first,â Philix repeated, his tone firm.
âWindsor Mansion?â
âUncle, do you know people from the Windsor family?â Felicity asked
in surprise.
In the next moment, she realized her mistake.
âOh my, I forgot. Uncle, youâre the Wolf from the stories. You spent
many years in Sagen!â
Philix did not respond. He looked at the familiar yet unfamiliar
scenery outside, his gaze reminiscent.
Felicity wisely kept her mouth shut.
âWarden, what happened to those who betrayed you over 20 years ago?â Melody, who had been silent all this while, suddenly asked.
Philix glanced at Melody. Nash had told him that it was Melodyâs grandmother who handed Nash over to Lewis, who then took him out
of the Young family,
