Chapter 267 The Great Monad Stone âOld Mr. Sable, Mr. Sable, I have bad news!â
After taking a detour to drop Finnegan back at Dragon Bay, Hailey hurried back to the Sable residence.
She rushed into the hall as if she had encountered something terrible.
The father and son duo of the Sable family, who were still fantasizing about Oswald getting help from Durbaine and subsequently taking out Finnegan, were simultaneously taken aback.
Catching her breath, Hailey exclaimed, âMaster Farrington and the others are dead!â
What?
Suddenly, Reginald and Mike froze, halting all their movements.
They were wondering if they were hearing things.
Hailey continued, âOn the way to the airport, I ran into people from the Martial Arts Alliance. They said that the Farrington family has been recklessly taking lives in Nuthana for over twenty years. To uphold the reputation of the Martial Arts Alliance, theyâve decided to execute the Farrington family!â
At this point, Reginald and his son were certain that they werenât hearing things.
Gulp!
At the same moment, they swallowed and exchanged glances.
If the Martial Arts Alliance has killed Oswald, who else can we count on to deal with Finnegan?
Hailey asked anxiously, âOld Mr. Sable, Mr. Sable, what should we do now? The Martial Arts Alliance wonât hold the Sable family accountable too, will they?â
âStay calm,â Reginald said, completely oblivious to Haileyâs feigned anxiety. He suppressed his own emotions as he replied, âThe Martial Arts Alliance is after the Farrington family, not us. We are not part of the Martial Arts Alliance. No matter how powerful they are, they wonât involve us without reason.â
Mike asked, âDad, whatâs really going on? Why would the Martial Arts Alliance still want to kill Master Farrington after expelling him and his men?â
Reginald voiced his speculation. âThey probably want to kick him when heâs down. Perhaps some people were worried that Master Farrington would drag them down with him, so they decided to strike first.â
âWhat do we do now? Master Farrington is dead. Who else can we rely on to deal with Finnegan?â
Taking a deep breath, Reginald furrowed his brows in thought.
Hailey tentatively made a suggestion, âWhy donât we seek to reconcile with Finnegan? I believe as long as we show enough sincerity, Finnegan will be willing to let bygones be bygones!â
âImpossible!â Mike roared immediately. âLiam is my son. Now that heâs dead, Iâm left without an heir. I absolutely refuse to negotiate with Finnegan! And even if I donât seek revenge for Liam, isnât the current crisis of Regi Group also his doing?â

Hailey said, âMr. Sable, Finnegan has extensive connections in Nuthana. The Sable family wonât be able to hold out for long!â
Upon hearing this, the expression on Mikeâs face froze.
He was no fool. He fully understood how difficult it is to lay a finger on Finnegan.
However, there was no way he could let go of the grudge against his childâs killer.
âAlright, Hailey, you should go back first. I need some time to think.â
With a long sigh, Reginald seemed to have age significantly.
Hailey nodded. âIâll be going off then.â
After she left, Mike said angrily, âDad, we-â
Reginald waved his hand to interrupt him. âYou should go back now. Try your best to delay any interference from the different departments regarding the free medical treatment. As for Finnegan⦠Iâll figure something out!â
Banging the table, Mike left in anger.
The entire hall was left with only Reginald, sitting frozen like a statue.
After a long while, he let out a sigh. Seemingly making a decision, he picked up his phone to make a call.
âHelp me kill someone, and from then on, you will owe me nothing!â
The night passed quietly.
The Martial Arts Alliance headquarters announced the death of Oswald and his three generations.
They also released news about the purge of the Farrington familyâs descendants, along with the reasons for the purge.
It surprised everyone.
Why do they insist on wiping them out even after theyâve been expelled from the Martial Alliance Alliance?
However, since it was an order personally given by Walter, the chairman of the Martial Arts Alliance, no one dared to question it. They could only lament the misfortune that befell the Oswald family.
Only a small group of people who knew the truth were in awe of Finneganâs ruthlessness.
After all, he had wiped out his enemies, showing no mercy.
Yet Finnegan, the mastermind behind the scenes, behaved nonchalantly, not even paying attention to what the outside world was saying about the matter.
He woke up early and went straight to the backyard to cultivate.
When it was a little past eight, a servant came to report âMr. Larkin, Ms. Riley from the Chappell family is here to visit youâ

Chapter 267 The Great Monad Stone
Thinking of Riley, who was the opposite of Riley, Finnegan said, âPlease ask her to come over, and bring some breakfast too.â
In no time, Riley arrived, cradling a finely crafted wooden box.
âMr. Larkin!â
Finnegan raised his hand and said, âMs. Riley, please have a seat.â
Riley said, âI have to go back to work at the office. I just came to drop something off for you, so I wonât be staying!â
As she spoke, she set down the wooden box in her hand.
Finnegan casually glanced over. âWhatâs this?â
Riley replied, âThe Eternal Crown!â
Huh?
Finneganâs pupils slightly contracted. âThe Eternal Crown? For me?â
On the night when Rhiannon met with trouble, he indeed desired the Eternal Crown, or more specifically, he coveted the gem on the Eternal Crown that resembled a luminous pearl in the night.
However, when Rueben arrived, he demanded Riley return his eight hundred million, leaving Finnegan with no reason to take away the Eternal Crown.
He had never thought the Chappell family would have Riley deliver it to him.
Riley said, âMy grandfather said that our family and you have become friends after a fight over the Eternal Crown. After discussing with the original owner and agreeing on compensation, he asked me to bring the Eternal Crown to you. It serves as an apology from our family to you, Mr. Larkin, as well as a gift to express our sincerity in forging a friendship!â
âAn apology is enough. It was just Liamâs scheme after all.â Finnegan responded with a thoughtful tone, âHowever, even though the Eternal Crown is damaged, itâs still worth several hundred million. Isnât this gift a bit too extravagant?â
Riley replied, âCompared to Dragon Bay No. 1 Villa that the Miles family has given you, itâs not that expensive!â
Upon hearing this, Finnegan revealed a satisfied smile. In that case, Iâll accept this gift.â
âThen I wonât take up any more of your time, Mr. Larkin.â
Nodding her head, Riley took her leave.
Once the servant delivered breakfast, Finnegan quickly finished his meal in a few bites and then returned to his room, cradling the wooden box.
He closed the curtains to let the room darken.
Following that, he opened the wooden box and took out the gem that resembled a luminous pearl.

Chapter 267 The Great Monad Stone
In the dim surroundings, the seemingly ordinary gemstone was unexpectedly flickering, bright one moment and dark the next. Inside it, a black and a yellow light shimmered, forming a pattern reminiscent of the Great Monad.
Finneganâs eyes sparkled, his voice tinged with undeniable excitement. âIt really is the Great Monad Stone. I canât believe that the Great Monad Stone actually exists!â
The Great Monad Stone was a legendary gem believed to embody the mystical negative and positive energies.
The positive energy within could suppress all the evils in the world and bring the dead back to life, while the negative energy within could ward off all evil, killing without a trace.
âBut how do I absorb the negative and positive energies into my body?â
Upon considering the issue, Finneganâs first thought was to seek out Sawyer, but he simply had no way to contact the latter.
Finnegan felt somewhat dejected. âIt seems I can only figure it out on my own.â
After studying it for quite a while, Finnegan couldnât figure out a way to draw out and absorb the negative and positive energies contained within. He also couldnât discern anything else out of the ordinary.
In the end, all he could do was keep the unassuming Great Monad Stone with him, planning to study it slowly in the future.
At the same time, he gave Alisha a call. âTake me to the Wright residence. Iâll be giving Ms. Wright her final treatment.â
