Chapter 428 Sunrise City’s Top Killer Alan’s friends responded strongly to his death.

As the kingpin who ruled the underworld twenty years ago, he had countless protégés and many people benefited from his reign.

After so many years, his protégés had scattered all over the country. Even those who had not done well in life had already become gang bosses in their respective areas.

His influence was so large that even Cronus was afraid.

Cronus dared not go after Alan directly because of the consequences, so he had to kill his rival with a borrowed knife.

The news of Alan’s death spread across the country and it summoned all his protégés back to Lilyrose for revenge.

Everyone in the city knew a storm was coming and there was no place for them to hide or run.

All the gang bosses of the underworld stayed quiet and kept a low profile. They even warned their men to not cause any trouble lately attract unwanted attention.

“Cronus is behind Master Cummingham’s death, but he had just passed. It’s inappropriate for us to cause too much of a commotion. After he is laid to rest, we’ll go after Cronus.”

“But if we don’t go after Cronus now, are we just going to sit back and watch the killer roam free?”

“The retard son-in-law of the Quints is the killer. We must take him and his entire family down to honor Master Cummingham.”

The elders of Lefteria Gang were discussing in River Watcher Inn.

“The Quints are just a second-tier family. Just erase them from the face of the earth.”

“But Kaze Lee is taken by the police and got locked up in the detention center. He’s in the police’s territory. How are we going to get him? Should we go after the mayor and make him hand Kaze Lee over?”

Leo was shocked. He did not want to stand against the city council or the mayor.

There were rumors about the city council teaming up with Perfect World Group to stand against the top three families.

If he had to go against Cronus, then the city council and Perfect World Group would be his natural allies. He could not just offend them now.

He quickly said, “Uncles, elders, we don’t need to stand against the city council. Just send someone into the detention center and kill Kaze Lee. We can also set an example to the other factions in the underworld.”

“Oh? Good idea. Who should we send? Who else in Lefteria Group ha such capabilities?”

Everyone pondered.

Leo chuckled and said, “Have you guys forgotten about the strongest in Lefteria Gang and the top killer of Sunrise City?”

“You mean Jeremiah Reaper, the Grim Reaper? I thought he was living in seclusion in some monastery?”

The elders were surprised by Leo’s suggestion.

As elders of the gang and now board members of the company, they feared the man known as the Grim Reaper.

Unless necessary, they would not want to have any contact with him.

“My godfather was murdered. I believe Uncle Jeremiah wouldn’t just turn a blind eye. He would be willing to come out of seclusion to kill the murderer,” Leo said.

Jeremiah was close with Alan and Leo’s biological father, Bando.

It was the reason why Leo believed he could ask Jeremiah to kill Kaze.

With Jeremiah’s involvement, Leo could also set an example for the other elders in the company who wished to usurp the position after Alan passed.

“I will go look for Uncle Jeremiah at Golden Crow Monastery.”

After obtaining agreements from the elders, Leo started to prepare to visit Golden Crow Monastery just outside the city.

“I am already here.”

It was at that moment, a chilly voice came from behind.

Everyone felt chills down their spine.

A disheveled old man in rugs came in while holding a broken sword He ignored everyone and went straight up to Alan’s coffin. He then drew his sword.

Before anyone could stop him, the lid of the coffin was lifted by the sword’s energy.
