Melvin and the heads of the Four Noble Lineages nodded in respect.

Once Caspian and Willow had left the hall, Melvin narrowed his eyes and looked at Wylie, saying coldly, “From this moment onward, Celestial Sanctum officially declares war on Mahayan Pavilion!”

Then, he and his subordinates left.

“Today, the Four Noble Lineages of Easton officially declare war on Mahayan Pavilion!”

The people from the Four Noble Lineages left as well.

“Lord Jennings, I just remembered I have something urgent to do, so I’ll take my leave now! Let’s meet again sometime.”

“Lord Jennings…”

Now that Celestial Sanctum and the Four Noble Lineages had declared war on Mahayan Pavilion, the guests swiftly came up with reasons to leave.

They could not afford to stand on the wrong side.

Everyone could tell that a deathly fight would break out between Mahayan Pavilion and Celestial Sanctum.

No one wanted to get caught up in it.

Only those who were already at a clear disadvantage would choose a side now.

In just minutes, the bustling hall emptied.

Wylie turned pale with fury.

His grand event had ended in shambles, and it was all because of Caspian.

Never would he have expected Celestial Sanctum and the Four Noble Lineages to declare war against him just for Caspian’s sake.

It seemed like the bloody battle was unavoidable!

“We have a crisis on our hands, Lord Jennings. What should we do now?” Homer Flynn, a white–haired elderly man, asked after approaching Wylie.

“Anyone who stands against Mahayan Pavilion must die! We’ll kill them, whoever they are!”

Mahayan Pavilion was established decades ago. They had a solid foundation and a lot of resources. He firmly believed that even if Celestial Sanctum joined forces with the Four Noble Lineages, they still would not be able to wipe out Mahayan Pavilion so easily.

“Tell everyone in Mahayan Pavilion to prepare for battle at once!” Wylie commanded with at grim expression.

“Yes, Lord Jennings!” Homer replied before walking off to get the preparations done.

However, he had only taken a single step when he stopped and asked, “Lord Jennings, what about Mr. Billy…”

“Don’t bring up that useless punk. Why did he piss off such a powerful figure? Send him to Easton Hospital for treatment first,” Wylie instructed darkly.

A few of his subordinates swiftly took the unconscious Billy away.

In the span of one night, the incident at Delta Tower caused a huge uproar in Easton.

On that very night itself, Celestial Sanctum and the Four Noble Lineages joined forces and attacked many of Mahayan Pavilion’s territories.

By the end of the night, Mahayan Pavilion suffered heavy losses, including multiple territories.

“Lord Jennings, in just one night, Celestial Sanctum and the Four Noble Lineages had seized hundreds of our casinos, bars, and establishments!” Homer reported to Wylie.

He handed over the list he had drawn up.

After glancing through it, Wylie immediately ripped the document into shreds.

In just one night, Mahayan Pavilion had lost hundreds of millions!

bes

Though they had a wealth of resources, they would not be able to survive if they suffered such heavy losses every day!

“Damn it! Have Celestial Sanctum and the Four Noble Lineages decided to go all out in their battle against us?” Wylie raged.

“Lord Jennings, we can’t just sit around and do nothing while Celestial Sanctum and the Four Noble Lineages seize our territories! If we don’t fight back, how are we ever to hold our heads up high in Easton ever again?” Homer said grimly.

“We’re fighting back, of course! Give the order right away! From this moment onward, we’re going to launch a full assault on Celestial Sanctum and the Four Noble Lineages! Let them see what we’re capable of! Let them see who’s the most powerful in Easton!” Wylie commanded.

“Yes, Lord Jennings!” Homer replied.

Soon, Mahayan Pavilion started fighting back.

The entirety of Easton descended into chaos as the forces clashed in every corner of the city.

All the people in Easton descended into a state of fear and panic.

Even though Mahayan Pavilion immediately fought back as hard as it could, Celestial Sanctum and the Four Noble Lineages still caused a great deal of problems.

Going up against the combined strength of five forces, Mahayan Pavilion was stretched thin.

Among the five, Celestial Sanctum’s men fought the most fiercely.

That was because Caspian had given them three days to annihilate Mahayan Pavilion.

Thus, every person in Celestial Sanctum flew into a frenzy. They had been biding their time. long enough. Now that they could openly fight Mahayan Pavilion, they were not holding back! As Mahayan Pavilion continued to lose more and more of its territories, Wylie started to feel threatened.

Wylie was inside the hall of Mahayan Pavilion when Homer came in and said, “Lord Jennings, The Reaper requests an urgent audience with you!”

“Tell him to get lost! I don’t have the time to deal with him!” Wylie growled.

In the past, he would have spared a few minutes of civility for The Reaper just for the sake of appearances.

But now that Mahayan Pavilion was in danger, he could not be bothered to entertain him. “But The Reaper says he has something urgent to report to you!” Homer said with a frown. “Let him in,” Wylie responded as his brows knitted together.

After coming in, The Reaper nodded and said respectfully, “Greetings, Lord Jennings!”

“What do you want? Out with it. I don’t have the time to listen to your nonsense!” Wylie glanced at The Reaper and snapped impatiently.

The Reaper was not offended by Wylie’s annoyed demeanor. He knew what was going on with Mahayan Pavilion.

“Lord Jennings, I know you’re currently concerned about the attacks from Celestial Sanctum and the Four Noble Lineages. This situation is related to Caspian, and I know some things about him!” The Reaper solemnly declared.

“You do?”

Immediately, Wylie’s interest was piqued.

He had asked his people to investigate Caspian, to no avail.

“Why are you just standing there then? Hurry up and tell me!” Wylie urged.

“At first, Caspian was just the matrilocal son–in–law of the Stewart family in Southlake City…

The Reaper began.

“What? A matrilocal son–in–law?”

Wylie’s expression stiffened in shock.

Why would Celestial Sanctum fear a matrilocal son–in–law?

“On the surface, he’s only a matrilocal son–in–law, but in reality, he has another identity. He served in the army for a few

for a few years.

“A while ago, he stirred up an uproar in Southlake City. He massacred the Flying Dragons of Southlake City, as well as the York family. Even Sir Leon died at his hands…”

“What did you say? Caspian’s the one who killed Leonardo?” Wylie exclaimed.

He was dumbstruck.

How could a matrilocal son–in–law accomplish such things?

Even though Leonardo was not as powerful as Mahayan Pavilion, he was still the most. powerful in the Two Lakes area!

It seemed entirely unbelievable that such a powerful being had been killed by a matrilocal son- in–law like Caspian!
