Chapter 4
After a while, they arrived at Brookspring in the southern suburbs.
Therey the most luxurious vimunity in all of Brookspring.
Almost every elite member of Brookspring’s high society preferred to reside in this ce. It appeared to
be far from the city’s hustle and bustle, but in reality, it was just a guise for a seemingly reclusive
lifestyle.
Very soon, they arrived at the Harper Vi.
The Harper Vi stood on a hillside in the southern suburbs.
In fact, almost the entire hill belonged to the Harper family.
Right in the middle of the viplex, there was a lively scene with people bustling around, and the
ce was lit up as if it were Christmas.
The reason was quite simple.
This day marked the 80th birthday of Samuel Harper, the current head of the Harper family.
At the moment, Samuel was seated in the main hall of the Harper Vi. With his face beaming, he was
dressed in a red traditional suit.
He watched as guests came and went. All of them offered him birthday wishes.
At the entrance of the hall, a servant with a booming voice continuously announced the gifts brought by
these guests.
“Representing Pinnacle Enterprises, the chairman brings birthday greetings to Mr. Samuel with two
gold bars, each weighing 10 pounds.
“Representing Degrom Pharmaceuticals, the chairman brings birthday greetings to Mr. Samuel with five
Nourishing Pills.
“Representing Lilosey Garments, the chairman brings birthday greetings to Mr. Samuel with a gift of
200 thousand dors.”
These announcements echoed throughout the room.
As Samuel listened to thesevish gifts, he maintained a bright smile on his face.
But the very next moment, the voice of the servant announcing at the entrance seemed to change
dramatically.
A deep, hoarse voice filled with boundless hostility resonated through the Harper Vi.
“The Clifford family from Brookspring came here to wish Mr. Samuel a happy birthday.”
This voice rumbled like thunder. It reverberated in the sky above the Harper Vi. It lingered for a long
time without dissipating.
As soon as they heard the voice, everyone in the room was suddenly stunned. All eyes instinctively
turned toward the
entrance.
Hearing that, they thought to themselves, “The Clifford family from Brookspring?”
It had been a long time since they heard the Clifford family from Brookspring.
The Clifford family from Brookspring had suffered a tragic annihtion many years ago, with the entire
family meeting a grim end.
Even the family estate had turned into ruins and became the burial ground of the Clifford family.
But now, at the 80th birthday celebration of Samuel, someone had dared to im the name of the
Clifford family from Brookspring.
What a dreadful omen this was.
They wondered whether this person was wishing for the same fate for the Harper family as the Clifford
family at Samuel’s 80th birthday celebration.
Samuel, who was seated at the head of the table, immediately gripped the armrest and stood up with a
sharp ng.
His brow furrowed, and his eyes were filled with anger.
As the head of the Harper family, he certainly could sense the ominous atmosphere since everyone
else could.
Moreover, what others didn’t know was that the Harper family had been involved in the tragic
annihtion of the Clifford family many years ago.
This was like a direct p to Samuel’s face on his 80th birthday celebration.
At this moment, a few members of the Harper family rushed forward to console Samuel.
Among them, one middle-aged man sternly spoke up.
He eximed, “Xavier, go and see what is going on!”
After hearing what he said, a well-groomed young man stepped forward.
Xavier Harper was the third-generation offspring of the Harper family, and he was none other than the
eldest son of the Harper family.
He was well aware of the connection between the annihtion of the Clifford family and the Harper
family.
Moreover, he was a key participant. The group that had hunted down Zoe at the Clifford family’s estate
was just sent by Xavier.
With anger in his eyes, he approached the entrance of the hall.
After that, he shouted, “Damn it!
“Who is the idiot causing trouble at the Harper family? Have you had enough?”
Just as he was about to finish his sentence, that low, hoarse voice, which was just like the roar of a
lion, rang out again.
“I’m Gavin Clifford, from the Clifford family of Brookspring.”
“Gavin?”
All the people in the hall, including the Harper family, gasped, and their eyes widened with shock. Their
pupils dted.
All of them eximed, “Cavin?”
One of them asked, “Is he the former eldest son of the Clifford family?”
Another person replied, “Is he still alive? Wasn’t he supposed to be dead a long time ago?”
People were abuzz with discussions, and even the members of the Harper family disyed surprised
expressions.
At the same time, Xavier spoke up again.
He shouted, “Just show up! Stop pretending! Gavin died a decade ago!”
“Boom!” Just as Xavier uttered those words, a sudden air vibration sounded.
Xavier was instantly horrified when he saw an enormous ck object materialize out of thin air and
hurtle toward him.
After that, he screamed and then flung himself aside.

“Boom!” A deafening sound echoed through the hall as a massive coffinnded squarely in the center
of the Harper Vi.
It caused a cloud of dust.
It was at this moment that Gavin’s voice resonated again.
He asked, “Samuel, are you satisfied with the 80th birthday gift the Clifford family is presenting to you?”
With these words, Gavin’s figure slowly emerged at the entrance of the Harper Vi’s hall. He moved
step by step toward the interior.
“You fool!” Samuel’s furious voice rang out.
At this point, Samuel was trembling with anger as he stared at the coffin in the middle of the hall. His
face changed to red and back to pale again.
“Dad, calm down. Please don’t let anger affect your health.”
The middle-aged man who asked Xavier to go out to investigate earlier hurriedly consoled Samuel.
After that, he turned his angry gaze toward Gavin and pointed at him.
He then shouted, “You audacious thug! How dare you cause trouble in the Harper family?”
At the same time, Xavier, who had narrowly escaped the coffin’s attack, managed to climb to his feet.
As he red at Gavin, who was nearby, he was extremely angry. He shouted with gritted teeth at
Gavin, “Kid, you are asking for death!”
He then continued, “Someone! Beat this imbecile to a pulp!”
“Crack!”
Before he could finish speaking, a resounding noise echoed.
“Ah!”
A cry of agony burst from his lips, and then blood sprayed into the air.
Gavin had pped Xavier so hard that half of Xavier’s face wasid open. After that, Xavier tumbled
through the air. He eventually crashed to the ground.
Hey there convulsing and showed no signs of getting up.
“Xavier!” A woman’s horrified cry filled the air.
A plump woman rushed forward from the crowd. She threw herself beside Xavier.
She eximed, “Xavier, what happened to you? How… Ah!”
The next moment, she let out a sharp scream. Her face turned ashen as she saw Xavier’s half-
shredded face with bones exposed.
“Ah!” She let out a sharp scream once more. It was shrill and piercing.
“You bastard! I will kill you! I will kill you!”
After that, the woman angrily charged toward Gavin with gritted teeth.
But in the next moment, the same sound rang out again.
“Crack!” A crisp noise rang out, and the plump womanpleted a full rotation in mid-air twice as
blood sttered everywhere. She finally fell to the ground with no signs of life.
“You!”
After seeing this, the members of the Harper family standing in the depths of the hall were incensed,
and their burning with rage.
The middle-aged man who had spoken earlier stepped forward.
His voice was hoarse with fury as he shouted, “Kid, you dared to hurt my son and my wife!
“Someone! Kill him. Kill him!”
After he spoke, the servants and bodyguards of the Harper family brandished weapons and rushed
forward.
Gavin clenched his fists as he looked at the crowd closing in on him.
“Boom!” With a loud noise, the ground beneath him suddenly cracked.
eyes were
Instantly, it was as if his body had turned into a flying dragon. In the next second, the room was filled
with screams as people tumbled through the air.
In the blink of an eye, more than a dozen people from the Harper family who rushed outy on the
ground.
At that moment, all the onlookers were shocked.
An ordinary person definitely couldn’t achieve this.
Samuel’s gaze suddenly tightened.
After that, he eximed, “A warrior? He is actually a warrior!
“Hurry up! Fetch Mr. Mason!”
