Chapter 110 The Lloyds‘ Conflict

When William and Tia arrived at the hall, they witnessed Keith and Turner fighting, with Keith pinning. down Turner. Others were attempting to separate the two while some were shouting. It was a chaotic

scene.

William was momentarily speechless as he could not believe someone from a wealthy family would resort

to violence.

In the next moment, he noticed Ruby signaled a Qi State master with a glance. The master promptly approached and shouted, “Stop fighting! We don’t want to upset Old Mr. Lloyd!” As he spoke, he reached out to pull Turner.

William’s gaze sharpened as he noticed the Qi radiating from the master’s hand, and he quickly realized the master’s intentions to ambush Turner. Reacting swiftly, he flicked his finger and unleashed a sharp gust of wind that struck the master’s wrist, causing the latter to exclaim and step back in surprise. The master looked up at William with a mix of shock and fear.

William uttered coldly. “You have a lot of guts to attack someone in front of me!”

The master questioned angrily, “What are you doing?”

Immediately, William punched the master with great force, and a golden fist shadow hit the man’s chest with a muffled thud. A fist–shaped mark bulged on the master’s back, and he spat a mouthful of blood before collapsing-

After knocking the master down, William picked Keith up. The moment he was lifted, he felt no strength left in his body and exclaimed, “Let me go!”

Pushing Keith aside, William helped Turner up and asked with a frown, “Uncle Lloyd, what happened?”

Turner was shaking with anger and pointed at Keith while saying, “This b*stard threatened me with Tia!”

“Oh?” William raised an eyebrow. “How did he threaten you?”

Turner said, “He said that if I tried to compete with him for control of the Lloyd Corporation, Tia and her mother wouldn’t live past three days!”

Keith’s face was cold. “You’re the one who said it. I didn’t.”

Turner responded with anger, “Keith, man up and admit what you did! I’m warning you. If you ever harm my family, I’ll fight you until the end!”

“Fight me until the end? Do you even have the strength to do so?” Keith sneered at Turner while looking at the latter as if he was a dead ma

Tia’s beautiful eyes glinted with a cold light. “Uncle Keith, do you have to be so cruel?”

Keith gave her a sinister look and then turned to William to say, “Master Barrett, this is a matter for the Lloyds. I hope you won’t interfere.”

“Is that so? What if I want to? William replied lightly.

Keith chuckled. “I have a new friend who is the heir of an ancient martial arts family and also a Divine

William frowned. “Are you threatening me?”

“I wouldn’t dare, Keith said lightly, “but I believe you are a smart man.”

Tia’s expression suddenly changed as she had a premonition. “So, you’re planning to wipe us all out just because Grandpa is still alive, Uncle Keith?”

Keith replied angrily, “You leave me no choice! Why can’t you just be vassals? Why do you insist on competing with me? Do you think you can win?”

She quickly entered the house and saw her grandfather looking angry, helpless, and worried. “Grandpa,” she called out and started to walk over.

“Get

et out. Theodore suddenly glared at her, his eyes filled with viciousness as if he wanted to devour her.

Tia was startled. “Grandpa, you…”

“Get out!” He emphasized his tone.

Her eyes turned red as she realized that it was the first time her grandfather had ever scolded her like this. She stamped her foot in frustration and ran out of the room.

As William stood at the door, he glanced inside and saw nothing wrong with Theodore’s physical condition. He wondered why Theodore had suddenly changed his demeanor.

After a few thoughts, William turned to Tia and said, “Come with me. At the same time, he called out to Turner to join them as well. They walked to a secluded area before he asked, “Uncle Lloyd, what happened while we were away?”

Turner furrowed his brows as he tried to recall the events. “Before you guys returned, Keith was alone with my father for a few minutes. When Keith came out, he was like a different person. He became aggressive toward me, even threatening me. I was angry, so I fought him.”

A gleam flickered in William’s eyes. “So, you’re saying that Old Mr. Lloyd’s demeanor changed after being alone with Keith?”

Turner nodded. “Yes, it seems like it. Do you think Keith did something to my father?”

William paused for a moment before speaking. “We can’t jump to conclusions yet. I’ll talk to Old Mr. Lloyd again and see if I can get any information from him.”

Tia sighed softly, “I guess that’s all we can do.”

At Cloudcap Manor, there was a small building where Turner’s family resided. When they returned to the building, she made tea for William with a worried expression.

He reassured her. “Don’t worry too much. I won’t just stand by if Keith dares to lay a hand on you guys.”

Tia looked at him gratefully. “I don’t know how to thank you, William.”

He replied, “No need for thanks. We’re friends, after all.”

Meanwhile, Turner was lost in thought and seemed to be recalling something. Suddenly, he turned to William and said, “William, I just remembered something.”

“Oh? Tell me about it.” William said.

As Turner sorted out his thoughts, he shared them with William. “I remember something that happened about half a year ago. My dad got drunk and said some inexplicable things to me. At the time, I didn’t take it seriously and thought he was just talking nonsense.”

William was curious. “I see. What did he say?”

Turner replied. “He said that our family’s rise to power was due to guidance from a wise master, a god–like figure with boundless magical powers. The wise master stayed with my father for about six months. During that time, our family rose rapidly and laid the foundation for our future success. But when the master left, he left behind a message. He said that one day, he would send someone to our family to carry out his will, and my dad must obey that person. Otherwise, our family will be destroyed!”

As he spoke, he looked at William. “William, do you think this could be true? Is it possible that this has appeared and caused my dad to suddenly change his temperament?”

person

William was also skeptical about the idea that the Lloyd Family’s rise to glory was due to the guidance of a wise master. After some thought, he replied. “It’s possible it was just drunken talk.”

Turner sighed. “It’s too strange that my dad didn’t come out to stop Keith and me from fighting just now.”

Just then, the butler rushed over. “Mr. Barrett, Old Mr. Lloyd requests to see you.”

Tia was surprised and asked, “Is Grandpa not feeling well?”

“Indeed, which is why he specifically asked for Mr. Barrett, the butler replied.

William stood up and followed the butler out. As he arrived at the building, he noticed that Keith and the others were no longer there, and the hallway was eerily quiet. The butler led him to the ward and closed the door after William entered.

Theodore was seated in a chair with a pensive expression. When he noticed William’s arrival, he stood up and bowed deeply. “I am indebted to you for saving my life. Please accept my sincerest gratitude.”

William quickly helped Theodore up and replied, “Please don’t be so formal, Old Mr. Lloyd. I’m Tia’s friend, so it’s my responsibility to save you.”

Theodore invited William to sit and inquired, “Mr. Barrett, I heard from the butler that you are a Divine Realm Master.”

As the rumor had already spread, William could not deny it, so he replied, “I suppose you could say that.”

Theodore’s eyes sparkled with admiration. “No wonder your medical skills are exceptional! I’m truly impressed!” He paused and seemingly hesitated before finally asking. “Mr. Barrett, if you don’t mind me asking, do you believe in immortality?”
