Chapter 1163


    In the middle of the night, the psychic grandmaster and his two sons were cleaning up the mess at the


    altar on the rooftop of the Ronney Group’s office building. Now that the grandmaster had messed up the


    ritual, Henry was sure to kick them out of the Yard Family.


    However, the grandmaster was not convinced that he was at fault. My n has always acted as the Yard


    Family’s psychic grandmasters. We were extremely powerful in the past, so why are my powers not


    working? Then, he searched for the leftover blood from Ryan and Henry that had yet to be used as well


    as a strand of Sophia’s hair. He wanted to redo the ritual. Preparing the altar again, he stood before it


    like a madman with disheveled hair. If it fails again this time… That can only mean that the end of the


    Yard Family is nigh! Nothing can save them anymore. If so, the meaning behind my existence as their


    psychic grandmaster will be gone too…


    On the 32nd floor of the Ronney Group’s office building, Henry was pacing about anxiously. It waste at


    night, yet even the 32nd floor was not spared the pervasive smell of barbecueing from downstairs—


    the magnificent Ronney Group building smelled of barbecue.


    Was it Callum and Cade? To be honest, Henry wasn’t sure either. Still, he was very familiar with his two


    elder brothers’ capabilities and methods. All four of them were twins, and he too wanted to be the


    head of the Yard Family. Therefore, he had always beenpeting against them as rivals. Since we


    were young, Ryan and I have considered Callum and Cade to be enemies we needed to surpass. Would


    they let us breathe easy? While he was mulling over those thoughts, the smell of barbecueing from


    downstairs prated his senses. It seriously impacted his ability to think. “Why is the barbecue stand


    downstairs still open?!”


    Ryan replied, “We can’t chase them off. The city management authorities have gone off work. If we


    mobilize our private forces and things get out of hand, it will reflect very badly on us.”


    Not long ago, they sent their security guards out to chase those people away. The incident unexpectedly


    turned into arge-scale security incident, and nearly forced thepany to close its doors for self-


    inspection.


    If only this were not Cethos… and this was my private turf; who would dare to set up a stall on my private


    territory?! “One day, I’m going to make it so that they can never run wild within my territory again!” Henry


    said viciously. At that moment, something ck fell from above. It flew past the 32nd-floor window where


    he was standing like a shooting star and continued hurtling down toward the ground without pause—the


    psychic grandmaster hadmitted suicide by jumping off the building! Moreover, he fell directly onto


    the barbecue stand and died on the spot. The dead grandmaster lying in a pool of blood frightened the


    barbecue stall so badly that they fled several miles away. After that incident, nobody dared to set up a


    stall near the Ronney Group’s building for quite some time.


    Before the sun rose again the next day, the suicide incident at the Ronney Group’s office building had


    spread across the entire Bayside City. Various short video clips were circting on the inte. In the


    age of the inte, the suicide at the Ronney Group could not be kept under wraps no matter how hard


    they tried to sweep it under the rug. Once again, Henry and Ryan were taken to the police station to aid


    in the investigation. The entrance of the Ronney Group’s office building was cordoned off by the police,


    and thepany was forced to shut down for several days. Somebody had died in the building;


    combined with the rumors from a while back, none of the employees dared to turn up for work. Besides,


    the employees were already feeling uneasy in the first ce. That was why Henry had brought in the


    grandmaster to soothe their fears. Contrary to his expectations, the grandmaster had killed himself


    instead. The Ronney Group was finished! Even the psychic grandmaster was dead!


    In Ronney City, Callum had just finished his lunch. He was preparing to attend a meeting after ying


    with the pig. To his surprise, his spy hidden in the Ronney Group sent him a message: ‘The psychic


    grandmaster fell to his death. No idea who the perpetrator is.’


    He frowned. The grandmaster is dead? Could it be Sophia? Killing the grandmaster now will certainly


    muddy the waters. I wonder if Henry can remain in control of the situation and keep it under wraps now


    that somebody from the Ronney Group, a foreign enterprise, has died. I’m guessing he won’t be able to


    hold on for long. Sophia will probably take the chance to strike again and get rid of those twins while


    she’s at it!


    Callum held no affection for the psychic grandmaster. However, that grandmaster had devoted his entire


    life to the Yard Family. Even if he did not produce results, he still worked hard for them… Callum felt that


    the grandmaster’s death was a shame, but he had nothing much to say about it aside from that. In the


    struggle for power, human lives are nothing but cannon fodder.


    In Bayside City, Sophia heard the news about the death of the Ronney Group’s grandmaster in the


    morning. The office building of the Ronney Group’s headquarters must be at least forty stories. Falling to


    one’s death from the rooftop… That’s really cruel… I wonder who did it? Did the Yard twins throw the


    grandmaster off the building in a fit of rage because the ritual failed and they couldn’t cast a lethal curse


    on me? Or, did Callum take the opportunity to frame his younger brothers? In any case, Henry and Ryan


    are goners. Somebody died. Moreover, it happened during the busiest time of the night. I wonder how


    much panic the sudden death caused?


    Later, Sophia asked somebody to go to the police station to ask about the incident and soon received an


    answer. ording to the statements given by the grandmaster’s sons, the grandmaster reportedly


    committed suicide by jumping off the building. That night, they were undoubtedly performing a ritual to


    cast a lethal curse on Sophia at the rooftop of the building. During the first attempt, somebody had


    thrown a firecracker at the altar and disrupted the ritual. During the second attempt, the grandmaster


    carried out the ritual again before going insane all of a sudden. Crying andughing at the same time, he


    yelled, “The heavens have abandoned the Yard Family!” Then, he jumped off the building.


    The police were rather doubtful about the grandmaster’s ‘suicide’ incident. There were no witnesses,


    videos, or audio recordings of the incident. Moreover, the grandmaster’s neck was bruised from being


    strangled. Based on the marks, they were made by Henry.


    On the other hand, Henry said nothing whatsoever while waiting for hiswyer to arrive. At present, there


    was no evidence of him murdering the grandmaster. In the same vein, there was no evidence to prove


    his innocence either. Therefore, the police couldn’t do anything to him.

    Callum had been paying close attention to the news in Cethos. After he caught up on thetest news, he


    immediately called Sophia. “This trick of yours is truly wonderful! Using the death of the grandmaster,


    youpletely destroyed the favorability Henry had built up with great difficulty. There’s no evidence to


    prove him guilty, but there’s no evidence to prove him innocent either. That’s the most amazing part of it


    all! Despite knowing that he is the murderer, the police can do nothing! Not bad; they will definitely suffer


    in the future.”


    On the contrary, Sophia became puzzled. “Weren’t you behind the grandmaster’s death?”


    He frowned. “I thought it was you.”


    Thus, both of them were bewildered.


    If neither one of us did it, then who did? Could it be Michael or Cooper? But, they would have told me if


    they were the ones behind it. In the end, this incident turned into an unresolved case. However, Sophia


    couldn’t be bothered to investigate the incident since it had nothing to do with her.


    Meanwhile, Callum was very sensitive about the issue. If it wasn’t Sophia’s doing, then that could mean


    that a fourth party had entered the fray and was secretly stirring up the waters. Therefore, he quickly


    obtained a surveince recording of the incident. Since Henry was afraid that somebody would gain


    ammunition against him for doing something like that, he did not dare to set up any surveince


    cameras. Unfortunately, he could not prevent Callum from gathering evidence of the incident; Callum had


    sent somebody to secretly set up a pinhole camera in advance to record the entire incident.


    In the video, the grandmaster’s hair was in disarray, and he looked like a lunatic. He was using Henry


    and Ryan’s blood as ink as he drew a magic spell on some nk talismans. He wanted to use the


    strength of the Dragon Blood to curse Sophia to death. However, the soul-suppressing charm


    spontaneously burst into mes mid-way through the ritual! Looking at the soul-suppressing charm in


    disbelief, he suddenly burst out into insaneughter. “The heavens have abandoned the Yard Family!


    The heavens have abandoned the Yard Family!” After saying that, he dashed out of the pinhole camera’s


    view, and his sons immediately ran after him. What happened after that remained unknown. Callum did


    not know if the grandmaster hadmitted suicide or if his sons had pushed him off the building…
