Chapter 228 Joining Forces

“Why are you only telling me about Caspian’s background now?” Wylie asked as he fixed

his eyes on The Reaper.

“Caspian killed Leonardo and many of my friends. He’s even trying to go up against you

now, Lord Jennings, so I hope you will eliminate him! By doing so, not only will you be

upholding your dignity, but you’ll also be avenging Sir Leon!” The Reaper declared fiercely.

“Hah!” Wylie scoffed.

The Reaper had not given up yet.

In the past, Wylie would have found some excuse to brush off The Reaper.

But now, Caspian was a threat to Mahayan Pavilion, and he would not be happy if he did

not get rid of Caspian!

“You said it yourself. Caspian has a mysterious background. He’s not someone I can kill

just because I want to!” Wylie retorted.

He was not a fool. After seeing how arrogant Caspian was yesterday, he knew that Caspian

had to come from an incredibly powerful background.

Also, he knew Leonardo’s death was definitely not as simple as it seemed.

Leonardo was a tier–three expert, and The Reaper was also an expert in the use of inner

strength. Yet, one had died at Caspian’s hands, and the other fled to Easton–too afraid to

take revenge.

Anyone with half a mind could tell that Caspian was no pushover.

It would be foolish for Wylie to attack Caspian before figuring out just who the latter truly

was.

And as the master of Mahayan Pavilion, Wylie would not make such a silly mistake.

Leonardo had been killed because of his carelessness. He

Caspian, but in the end, all of his men died at Caspian’s le could easily deal with

The Reaper was not surprised by Wylie’s hesitance. He saw it coming.

“Lord Jennings, I know of a way to get rid of Caspian!” The Reaper declared.

“Tell me quickly!” Wylie urged.

“Caspian has offended many people, including the York family from Dhord City. We can

find at way to ally with them to kill Caspian!” The Reaper shared.

In reality, he had come up with the plan to deal with Caspian a long time ago.

As long as Wylie reached out to the York family from Dhord City and suggested a

partnership, there was a high chance the family would agree.

“Oh? Is that so? I didn’t expect Caspian to have so many enemies. He even offended the

York family from Dhord City, huh? Guess he’s done for this time!” Wylie remarked with a

sneer.

Although the Yorks of Dhord City were not one of the top families, they were still

considered an elite family.

If Mahayan Pavilion joined forces with the Yorks, even if everyone else in Easton worked

together, the latter would still fail to defeat the former.

“Mr. Flynn, I’ll have to trouble you to make the trip to Dhord City and get in touch with the

Yorks,” Wylie said to Homer.

“Yes, Lord Jennings. I’ll go right away!” Homer replied with a nod.

At last, The Reaper exhaled in relief.

As long as Mahayan Pavilion and the Yorks worked together, Caspian would not be leaving

Easton alive!

As soon as Celestia returned home to her family in Dhord City, she immediately informed

her father, Wendell York, of what happened in Southlake City. He was the current head of

the York family in Dhord City.

“Dad! Someone bullied me! You have to stand up for me! That guy Caspian Lynch not only

killed Leonardo, but he even made us lose so many assets! And worst of all, he brutally

murdered Mr. Bassett!” Celestia reported.

“How dare he!” Wendell fumed as he slammed his hand against the stone table in front of

him.

“Who’s this Caspian Lynch? What’s his background? How dare he go against us? Does he

think we’re pushovers?” Wendell continued raging.

He was not furious over Adam’s death or his daughter getting bullied. What infuriated him

the most was Leonardo’s death. It meant that the York family in Dhord City would be

losing a lot

of resources.

Throughout these years, the Yorks managed to rise to the ranks of a lesser–known elite

family in Dhord City mainly because Leonardo had given them most of the resources he

gathered in the Two Lakes area.

Now that Leonardo was dead, the York family was basically losing all of the businesses and

resources in the area.

For the time being, it would not have much of an effect on the Yorks, but in the long run,

The power balance in Dhord City was complicated. All of the elite families were looking for

opportunities to boost their standing.

If their influence started to fall, the other elite families would seize the chance to bring

them down.

If that happened, the Yorks in Dhord City would be in a perilous situation.

“Dad, you’ll help me get revenge, right?” Celestia quickly asked.

All along, she had a peaceful and easy life in Dhord City. She thought she would not have

any problems reclaiming some assets during her trip to the Two Lakes area.

Who would have thought that she would suffer at Caspian’s hands and even get slapped?

When had she ever been treated with such disrespect?

Celestia could not let things slide just like that.

However, Wendell did not rush into a decision. If Caspian could easily deal with Leonardo,

the kingpin in the Two Lakes area, that meant he had a few tricks up his sleeve.

Furthermore, Adam and Leonardo were both martial arts experts. They were no slouches

in fights.

This was especially true of Leonardo, who was about to reach his peak as a tier–three

expert, but he, too, had been killed by Caspian.

That alone proved Caspian’s might.

With such power, he could even gain prominence in Dhord City.

Before figuring out Caspian’s background, Wendell dared not make any hasty decisions.

If Caspian came from a powerful background, the Yorks would only be walking to their

doom if they attacked him recklessly.

Celestia saw the uncertainty in Wendell’s expression. She was frustrated, but she dared

not say anything.

She knew full well that Wendell had total control over the York family. No one could change

his mind or try to influence his decision.

A few days later, Celestia and Wendell were having tea together when the family butler

came in and said, “Someone is here to see you, sir.”

“Who is it?” Wendell asked puzzledly.

“He says he’s an elder from Mahayan Pavilion in Easton, and he’s here to discuss a

partnership with you,” the butler replied..

“A partnership?”

Wendell was confused.

Mahayan Pavilion was the strongest faction in Easton and on par with the Yorks in terms of

power.

However, the two did not have any dealings with each other, so why was Mahayan Pavilion

approaching him for a partnership?

“Lead him in,” Wendell instructed.

Half a minute later, Homer came in.

“Greetings, Mr. York. I’m Homer Flynn, an elder of Malayan Pavilion.”

Wendell eyed Homer and asked, “If I recall correctly, the Yorks and Mahayan Pavilion don’t

have any dealings with each other. Why have you come to see me today?”

“I’m here under the orders of Lord Jennings, the master of Mahayan Pavilion. He wants me

to discuss a partnership with you. We have a common enemy!” Homer declared.

“A common enemy? Please clarify,” Wendell said with a frown.

“I’m sure you’re familiar with the name Caspian Lynch, right, Mr. York?” Homer asked.

Caspian Lynch!

As soon as Wendell heard the name, he jumped to his feet.

For the past few days, he had been trying to think of a way to deal with Caspian.

And, by sheer coincidence, Mahayan Pavilion sought to join forces with him to do just that!

Caspian seemed to have offended a lot of people in Diatoran.

“Is there a conflict between Caspian and Mahayan Pavilion?” Wendell asked.

“That’s right,” Homer replied. “Immediately after showing up in Easton, Caspian convinced

Celestial Sanctum and four of the city’s strongest elite families to join forces and stand

against Mahayan Pavilion.

“After hearing that the York family has a grudge against Caspian, Lord Jennings sent me

over in the hopes that we can work together and combine our forces to kill Caspian!”
