Chapter 1178

    Nash put his phone down and picked up his ss so that he could clink it against Melody’s. “How do


    you n to deal with the Eves?”


    Melody smiled a mysterious smile. “Take a guess.”


    Nash downed the wine in his ss in one gulp before smiling slightly.


    He said, “You’ll either summon several powerful families to work together and overpower the Eves, or


    you’ll employ the use of martial arts to have the Eve family disappear off the face of the earth.


    “I guess that you’ll use the first method!”


    “That’s right. I think I’m going to allow the Eves some room to catch a break tomorrow. Then, I’ll get rid


    of them once and for all once I find enough people to help me out!”


    Melody took a small sip of her wine. Hints of worry appeared in her eyes.


    The Eves had risen through the ranks to be one of the elite families after acquiring everything the


    Stones once owned.


    It would not be that easy to convince the other elite families to turn against the Eves and help her out.


    Zachariah had had plenty to drink by the time they reached the end of their meal. His eyes were


    unfocused as he lifted his ss in Nash’s direction. “I’ll drink to your health, Mr. Calcraft!”


    He desperately wanted Nash to use his connections to arrange for him to have a meal with the


    governor-general, but he gave up trying to ask for that favor.


    The fact the governor-general had called meant he had taken an interest in Sagen’s happenings.


    If he were able to help Melody out, the governor-general would take note of that.


    Nash swirled the remaining wine in his ss slightly before downing it all in one go.


    His abilities had already achieved the Mystique Loyalty Realm, and he no longer fit in with these


    ordinary people.


    He had only agreed to cross paths with Zachariah so that he could help Melody out.


    The dinner ended at ten at night.


    Inside Melody’s car, Nash helped Tina rid her body of the negative energy umted inside. He also


    treated her for hypomenorrhea


    Inside the study of the Eve family’s mansion, Saul was sitting a desk and smoking a Cuban cigar.


    His features were arranged into an aggrieved expression.


    Spencer asked in a curious tone, “Grandpa, how did Melody get her hands on so much dirt about our


    family?”


    No one had even noticed anything when his grandfather took over the entire Stone family.


    Yet, Melody Stone had thrown so many bombs their way the minute she made an appearance.


    It was ridiculous!


    Saul tapped the cigar ash into an ashtray as he said earnestly, “The fact that Zander Stone was able to


    be the richest businessman means that he was no idiot. He knew about everything I did back then


    but chose to keep quiet to protect his family.


    “He must have given all the evidence to Melody Stone!”


    “In that case, why didn’t you get rid of Melody earlier?” Spencer asked.


    “Melody Stone has achieved the Profound Reality Realm. She’s not someone that any ordinary


    assassin would be able to approach!


    “I only attacked the Stone family back then because I wanted to get my hands on their Lion’s Roar


    Technique. I never expected that old witch in their family to be one step ahead of my ns. She had


    already destroyed the scrolls for that technique!”


    Saul took a long drag of his cigar, the aggrieved look on his face bing even more pronounced as


    he said, “It’s difficult enoug tackle Melody alone, but she’s got an expert with her at all time well.

    “I’m afraid she’s going to fight the Eves until each one of us dro dead!”


    A cold glint appeared in Spencer’s eyes when he recalled how Nash was always by Melody’s side. He


    gritted his teeth and said, “Worst- case scenario, we reach out to the Freeman family for help!”


    Just then, a series of rapid knocks rang out at the door.


    Before Saul could even say anything, a middle-aged man pushed the door open. Panting, he called


    out, “Dad…”


    “This panic is so unbing of you. How many times must I remind you? Always remain calm, even


    when facing trouble!”


    Saul berated him in a cold voice.


    “Dad… I can’t calm down… Something major has happened in the world of martial arts. Hudson,


    Benjamin, and Stanton of the Freeman family have died!”


    Gavin’s voice trembled as he spoke.


    These men were all sons of the Freeman family’s four Mystique Loyalty Realm experts.


    The Freeman family was one of the most powerful families in Sagen, Now, that family would be thrown


    into chaos after the deaths of three sons.


    “Who did it?”


    Saul still remained calm.


    After all, it was not his sons who had died. However, he was still curious about who daredy a finger


    on the Freeman family.


    “Nash Calcraft…”


    Gavin gazed at his father intently.


    Nash was one of Melody’s allies, and his name was no stranger to the Eve family. In fact, Saul had just


    gotten berated by Nash yesterday.


    “That’s a good thing…” A smile appeared on Saul’s face as he said,”


    That young man is letting what little power he has get to his head. He even has the guts to kill a


    Freeman family member… He won’t have much longer to live!”
