A chilling roar, reminiscent of a dragon’s mighty bellow, echoed through the
chaos, piercing the cacophony of their fiercebat. This formidable sound
had reached Emmanuel, who, with a swift and decisive movement,
employed his Dragon Hold Technique from a distance. The forceful
interruption caused Envoy Aora’s attack to veer off course, diverting its
deadly path.

Emmanuel’s resolve. Capturing Aora would bring him closer to uncovering
the truth he so desperately sought.
Envoy Aora, still reeling from the shock, barely managed to evade
Emmanuel’s devastating punch, but could not avoid the lightning–fast palm
strike that struck the side of their face. Though the impact was not severe,
the sting of humiliation was profound.
As Envoy Aora struggled, three additional top–tier masters emerged from the
shadows, encircling Emmanuel. Each of these elite warriors could have easily
imed a top spot in any martial artspetition, their presence a
testament to their formidable skill.
Yet, Emmanuel remained undaunted. Even with three opponents closing in,

“Retreat! We must retreat immediately!” Envoy Aora’s voice trembled with
urgency. They had initially believed that taking down the so–called

The only viable course of action was to withdraw.
“Think you can escape so easily? Not a chance!” Emmanuel’s eyes burned
with a fierce, unyielding resolve as he prepared to pursue them. But before
he could advance, one of the cloaked adversaries scattered a cloud of
noxious yellow powder into the air. The toxic substance quickly clouded the
surroundings, adding a sinisteryer to the retreat.
Simultaneously, the remaining two masters unleashed a barrage of hidden weapons, forcing Emmanuel to retreat to avoid the onught.
“Ah, Emmanuel, you’ve done well. But remember, one day I’ll face you in a true
one–on–one battle!” Envoy Aora’s voice,ced with bravado, rang out even <i>as </i>

tumultuous atmosphere. “Emmanuel!”
Mackenzie’s voice carried across the battlefield, cutting through the mor
and adding an unexpected twist to the chaotic scene.
Concerned that pursuing the fleeing enemies might leave his beloved wife,
child, and sister–inw vulnerable, Emmanuel reluctantly abandoned the
chase and turned back toward Mackenzie. The weight of his decision hung
heavy in the air, as he hurried to confirm their safety.
Upon reaching Mackenzie, who was frantically searching for signs of harm,
Emmanuel felt a surge of relief when she assured him that he was
unscathed. With a mix of urgency and concern, Mackenzie rushed to Rhett’s
side, her eyes filled with worry. “Are you alright?”
Rhett, though injured, brushed off the concern with a casual demeanor. “It’s
just a scratch. It’s nothing serious! I failed to apprehend the assassins. Please,
punish me as you see fit, Your Holiness.”
True to herpassionate nature, Mackenzie’s response was gentle and

understanding. “As long as you’re safe, there will be no punishment.”
Her words carried a tender warmth that made even Lexi, who stood nearby,
pause in admiration. Since her marriage, Mackenzie had transformed into ar
even more captivating figure, radiating an undeniable charm that
enchanted those around her.
Mackenzie’s next question cut through the tension. “Emmanuel, have you
discerned who those attackers were?”
Emmanuel, having swiftly circled the estate and gathered crucial
intelligence, answered without hesitation. “The four masters we encountered
are most likely the infamous Great Four Envoys of the General Chamber of
Commerce’s President. Their martial prowess exceeded what I had
anticipated. The one d in the red cloak was particrly formidable,
possessing double–S ss.”
Mackenzie absorbed this information with a nod of understanding.
“The other faction is probably affiliated with the official military and may be

linked with Teddy as well. It’s challenging to be certain, but if I encounter the
same type of weaponry used to demolish the Quillen residence, I’ll be able to
identify them,” came Emmanuel’sment.
Her words were punctuated by a sigh, reflecting her growing concern. “The
third faction must be the Verkade family, correct?”
His sigh mirrored hers, his expression darkening with regret. “Indeed. When
Gautier sought refuge, I should have shown no mercy.”
At that moment, Lexi added her piece to the puzzle. “Ms. Quillen, after both
you and Old Mr. Quillen vanished, the presidency of the Nuthana Chamber of
Commerce remained unfilled. I’ve heard that William, the secondrgest
shareholder of Terence Group, is now attempting to seize the position.”
Emmanuel’s fists clenched in anger upon hearing this revtion. “Gautier’s
betrayal is evident! The Verkade family has conspired with Teddy, aiming to supnt the Quillen family. Gautier was their insider.”
Mackenzie’s expression hardened as she absorbed this troubling news. Their

suspicions about Gautier had long simmered, but the scale of the disaster
was beyond their worst fears.
Lexi’s next statement added anotheryer ofplexity. “Following the
Quillen family massacre, Gautier also vanished. Everything has since been
managed by William and his close associates.”
Mackenzie’s eyes widened in disbelief. “He vanished?”
The sheer volume of revtions was overwhelming, leaving Mackenzie
struggling to piece together the intricate web of deceit and betrayal in such
a short period. The confusion and urgency of the situation threatened to
engulf them all.
