Chapter 311 Drama Travis’ killer had unknowingly offended Theseus.

+10 pearl’s The Ginger residence was now completely surrounded by a dense crowd, making it impossible to pass through.

Apart from Soren, the minister of the Martial Arts Alliance, and his law-executors, there were also members of prominent families from Juxshire. They cagerly awaited the unfolding drama, secretly relishing in others’ misfortune.

The Houghton family’s return to Juxshire had been incredibly powerful, especially with the news of having two grandmasters in their ranks. It had sent shivers down everyone’s spines.

The wisest course of action would have been to align themselves with the Houghton family promptly.

However, that wasn’t necessarily their intention.

After all, given the chance to rule, no one would willingly serve others.

Travis’ death had turned out to be a fortunate event for these prominent families, who were only responsible for picking sides. Furthermore, the Ginger family had provoked the Martial Arts Alliance, so they were bound to face severe consequences.

This martial arts tournament between the Ginger and Houghton families had severely weakened both houses, a sight that pleased the other prominent families.

Inside the hall of the Ginger residence, everyone felt oppressed, their expressions solemn. The situation was even more dire than when Alastair had yet to reach the peak of Manifestor and had to face the Houghton family’s provocation.

The most severe consequence of losing the martial arts tournament was that the Ginger family had to surrender ninety percent of their assets and withdraw from Juxshire.

However, this time, they had offended the guardian of the Martial Arts Alliance, and the outcome was truly unpredictable.

“Dad, where did the person who killed Travis come from? Not only did he kill Travis, but he also slapped the minister of the Martial Arts Alliance. It has caused quite a commotion,” said Callum, Emmett’s eldest son, with a reproachful tone.

Elliott, the second child, added, “Yes, Dad. This person is truly tactless. He has caused so much trouble for our family… If you want, I can go out and tell the minister of the Martial Arts Alliance that this person has no connection to our family whatsoever.”

Cynthia sighed and said, “I’m sure that jerk, Ryker, is laughing his head off right now. Just thinking about his smug face makes me sick.”

The other younger members of the Ginger family also chimed in, discussing ways to distance themselves from Emrys and find a glimmer of hope.

His face turned pale, and suddenly, he slammed the table fiercely and shouted, “Everyone, be quiet! Mr. Lund is our family’s savior. Without him, my father would have died at Travis’ hands long ago! Even now, Mr. Lund is in the backyard, tending to my father’s wounds. Yet you ungrateful lot are willing to sacrifice him to save yourselves. If Mr. Lund were to hear this, how disheartened would he be? You are not worthy of being descendants of the Ginger family!”

Meanwhile, in the backyard of the Ginger residence, Emrys had already administered acupuncture to Alastair.

Alastair’s complexion had slightly improved, but he soon followed with a bitter smile, saying, “Mr. Lund, I appreciate your life-saving grace, but this time, you really didn’t have to go to such lengths.”

Emrys remained silent.

Alastair continued, “I’ve lived a long life, and I feel I’ve lived enough. There’s nothing to regret if I die, but Mr. Lund, you’re still so young. I really don’t want to see…”

It seemed that Alastair had already come to terms with the fact that Emrys couldn’t escape from this disaster. His face was filled with immense sadness. As he finished speaking, he was overcome by a violent fit of coughing.

In that moment, Emrys finally spoke, “Don’t worry. A mere guardian of the Martial Arts Alliance won’t be able to harm me. Not only will I remain unscathed, but your family will also be safe. The one who should be panicking now is that guardian of the Martial Arts Alliance.”

Emrys appeared extremely composed, with a sharp glint of coldness flickering in his eyes.

Alastair was confused.

However, Emrys didn’t provide much explanation. Instead, he patted Alastair on the shoulder and said, “You have internal injuries. Although I have already administered acupuncture, you still need to rest for a while to recover. By the time you wake up, everything will be resolved.”
