    Chapter 150 A Visit From the Imperial Capital


    Caspian was stunned for a moment. He gathered himself and said. “It’s not that. I’m just not


    used to this.”


    It seemed like after that night, Willow’s attitude had changed.


    She had be much bolder now.


    “Then why aren’t you holding me?” Willow sulked.


    She then rested her cheek against Caspian’s chest.


    In the Two Lakes Region, there was an extremely luxurious private club called the Regal Club.


    The owner of this club was untouchable.


    Behind the clubhouse was a small courtyard with picturesque scenery.


    There was an elderly man who was fishing by theke. He exuded an extraordinary air.


    Standing next to him was another man. He was carrying


    a big sword on his back. He had a stern expression.


    This man’s nickname was The Reaper. He was secretly a master of his craft!


    “Leonardo, we have thetest news. The entire gang of Flying Dragons in Soutke City went missing


    . Even their supreme leader, Garrett, is missing as well. He’s probably dead.”


    At these words, the old man’s fishing rod snapped into two pieces.


    This old man was Leonardo Xanthos. He was the second oldest child in his family. Those around him r


    eferred to him as Sir Leon.


    “What happened?” Leonardo asked in a serious tone.


    The Reaper shook his head and said, “I’m not sure. I had sent out many men to investigate, but there w


    asn’t any news. The only thing I know is that Inspector Ezekiel went missing as


    well.”


    “Keep on searching. There must be something going on,” Leonardo said coldly.


    “Yes, sir!” The Reaper nodded his head.


    At first, Leonardo nned to back up Garrett. Flying Dragons was constantly expanding. Who knew the


    y would be eradicated?


    With Flying Dragons destroyed, Leonardo’s n waspletely ruined.


    “I have another piece of news. The York family had also vanished


    into thin air overnight. Nobody knows where Chiel Zachary is as well!” The Reaper said.

    “What!”


    This news made Leonardo rise from his seat.


    The York family was one of the most powerful families in Soutke City. How could they have vanished


    overnight?


    How could the regional chief not survive as well?


    Leonardo was greatly shocked by this news.


    “Who was the one who did all this? Have you heard about anything?” Leonardo asked.


    “No.” The Reaper shook his head.


    Leonardo’s expression turned sullen. He said, “Flying Dragons and the York family were destroyed. Chi


    ef Zachary was also killed. It seems like a bloody storm ising for Soutke City!”


    “Sir Leon, should we be taking any actions?” The Reaper asked.


    “Let’s observe the situation first. It would be great if we could seize the estates of Flying Dragons and t


    he York family.”


    “Sir Leon!”


    The butler was running toward them in a state of panic.


    “What is it? Why are you so worked up?” Leonardo asked, his voice calm and low.


    “Someone’s looking for you!” The butler was gasping for air.


    “Send him back. I’m not meeting anyone today.”


    “Leonardo, are you turning me away as well?”


    A youngdy walked in.


    Following behind her was an old man with tenacity in his eyes.


    Leonardo was taken by surprise. He hurried forward to greet her politely, saying, “I have sinned! My sin


    cerest apologies for noting out to greet you, Your Highness!”


    The youngdy smiled and said, “Don’t worry. This is a surprise visit anyway. I don’t me


    you.”


    Leonardo was relieved to hear this.


    This youngdy wasn’t just anyone.


    She was Celestia York. She came from the imperial family.


    Leonardo owed it to the House of York for all the prosperity he had to his name in the Two Lakes Regio


    n.


    Leonares was puzzled by Celestia’s sudden visit.


    “Your Highness. Please, have a seat!”


    Leonardo was fidgeting.


    “You don’t have to be so nervous. I’m here today because I have a matter that I need you to handle,” C


    elestia said indifferently.


    “At your service, Your Highness!” Leonardo answered immediately.


    “I’m sure you’ve already heard about the obliteration of the York family of Soutke City. We may not h


    ave the closest rtionship, but they are still one of us.


    “Whoever that harmed the York family of Soutke City is trying to humiliate us. I’m sure you get what I


    mean?” Celestia said in a chillingly calm manner.


    Leonardo scrambled for a response. “I’ll have my man on the case immediately!”


    “Good. Just notify me once there are any updates. I’ll be in Soutke City for the time being.


    After she had given her orders, she left the club. The elderly man followed suit.


    “Farewell, Your Highness!”


    Leonardo let out a sigh of relief after Celestia had left.


    “Sir Leon, did Ms. York reallye all the way here because of what happened to the York family?” Th


    e Reaper asked.

    “I’m not sure. That doesn’t concern us. One thing for sure, a storm is about to hit Soutke City,”


    Leonardo let out a heavy sigh.


    Things were tensing up in Soutke City with the arrival of the House of York from the Imperial Capital.


    It was feared that Soutke City would soon be engulfed in chaos!


    On the other hand, Caspian had brought Sylvia with him to confiscate the estates of Flying Dragons and


    The Flying Dragons had been in Soutke City for many years. Hence, they owned many


    Meanwhile, at the York n Group at Soutke City, Geoffrey was sitting anxiously in his office.


    He had recently heard of some rumors. He also knew about the obliteration of the York family.


    On that day, he had received an invitation from Nadia to go to the Cliff of Death.


    However, he was busy with official business the other day and couldn’t make it.


    Ever since that night, he no longer saw any members of the York family again. It was as if they had disa


    This made him worried. He had an inkling that the York family might have encountered an unfortunate ev


    It was at this moment that his door was kicked open!


    An old man and a youngdy walked in.


    “I’m here to take over the York family’spanies and all of its subsidiaries,” Celestia’s aristocratic air fi


    At the same time, the elderly man next to her took an emerald pendant out.


    The pendant had a gold engraving of the name “York“.


    This was the symbol of the imperial family!


    “The House of York?” Geoffrey was utterly shaken upon seeing the pendant.


    How would he not know the House of York?


    The York family of Soutke City might be known as an influential family, but if one were topare the


    Hundreds of years ago, the younger brother of the York family’s leader had to leave the Imperial Capital


    and set up branches in Soutke City.


    From there, thergest faction of the York family was established in Soutke City.


    However, the House of York had never been in contact with those in Soutke City, so why would they s


    “About that…” Geoffrey stammered.


    “What’s wrong? Do you want to go against the House of York?”


    The elderly man’s face turned dark and menacing. His eyes were filled with fury.


    One could feel a strong


    sense of malice emanating from him, making it hard for people to look directly at him.
