    “Ha! The Norton family wants to cause amotion in Jadeborough?” Zion snorted. “The head of the


    Norton family is in seclusion, so it must be his son’s doing.”


    One elder asked, “President Zeigler, what should we do next? Aren’t we going to do anything to stop


    these families from taking the Norton family’s side?”


    “Since Skr is ambitious, we shall let him be. Let’s see how he’ll teach Jared a lesson. It’s a ruthless


    world, and we can enjoy the show from aside.” Zion smirked.


    Meanwhile, Skr was sitting in the patriarch’s seat in the Norton residence.


    His father, David Norton, was in seclusion, so he was in charge of all affairs rted to the Norton


    family.


    Skr had always been in charge of the Norton family’s affairs, but he had never sat in the patriarch’s


    seat.


    However, things were different today.


    The Norton family had destroyed the Vige of Viins and captured The Viinous Four alive.

    They knew the Norton family had taken advantage of the situation, but Skr’s courage and the Norton


    family’s capability were known to all.


    Thus, many martial arts families started forming alliances with the Norton family.


    “The head of the Lionhead family from the south of the city, Mr. Peter Lionhead, requests a formal


    audience!”


    “The leader of Dark Sun Sect, Mr. Terry Sheepler, requests a formal audience!”


    “The head of Stabilis, Mr. Manuel Hirsh, requests a formal audience!”


    That very day, many martial arts families had requested a formal audience with Skr, and he had


    weed them all with a pleasant smile.


    Skr was inwardly pleased.


    He was young, but many prestigious martial arts families hade to ally with his family.


    Skr knew that even his father couldn’t achieve this feat.


    A total of thirty martial arts families ended up joining the Norton family that day.


    Skr was tired, but it was a fruitful day.


    “I’ll figure out a way to subdue the martial arts world in Marsingfill, too. By then, no one in Jadeborough


    can defeat me!”


    Standing at the highest point of the mansion, he lifted his head to stare at the sky. Obviously, he was


    too full of himself.


    Everyone knew what Skr had done, but no one stopped him.


    They seemed to be waiting for something.


    Back in the Dunn residence, L was wearing an ugly scowl.


    The Dunn family was at odds with the Norton family, and they used to be of simr strength.


    Now that many families had chosen to seek refuge with the Norton family, the Dunn family was no


    match for them.


    “Why are you still up thiste?” L’s wife asked.


    “I can’t sleep!” L lit a cigarette and took a long puff. “Where is Howard?”


    “Howard is in his room. He never came out or spoke a word ever since you took action against Jared,”


    his wife grumbled and red at him.


    “Well…” L exhaled sharply. “I did that for his sake. Why doesn’t he understand?”


    “You took someone else’s thing for his sake? Howard told me Jared is his friend, but you ended up


    asking him to trick Jared intoing here. You’re nothing but a thief!”


    “Women like you know nothing!” L snapped.


    He tossed his cigarette away and went to Howard’s room.


    Knock, knock!


    L knocked on the door and said, “Howard,e out. I need to talk to you.”


    “I don’t have anything to say to you! Just leave me alone!” Howard’s furious voice rang out inside his


    room.


    It had been days, but he still couldn’t get over it.


    It was all my fault! I never knew my father was someone that despicable.


    “I know you’re still upset, but I did that for your sake. Get up and put on some clothes. Bring your


    mother to your grandfather’s house. No matter what happens here, don’te back!” L ordered


    in a stern voice.
