    Chapter 328 A Chance


    Caspian pitied the old man as he tightened his own fists to fight Charles‘ iing attack.


    “Let me show you what true strength looks like, Charles!” dered Caspian as he dished out his own at


    tack.


    His own clenched fist stirred up a gust of wind of its own, seemingly sucking out all the air in the nearby


    space.


    Charles‘ punch seemed rtively weakpared to Caspian’s.


    Caspian’s fists were visibly more vicious and imposing.


    His fists would genuinely be able to part mountains.


    Charles started panicking as he noticed the powering from his opponent.


    Caspian’s strength surprised him once more, but he had no other choice left at this point.


    “Enough chatter, Caspian! Show me your true strength!” roared Charles.

    He mmed his fist toward Caspian’s.


    A thunderous sound rang out from the impact as the fists collided and sent out a wave of wind that disp


    ersed around them.


    Porcin vases and ss cups shattered from the st of wind, and the surroundings looked like they


    had been hit by a typhoon.


    Charles looked up at Caspian with shock the moment their fists collided with one another.


    A clear crisp sound of bones cracking could be heard.


    The next moment, Charles was sent flying backward like a cannonball.


    He mmed onto the wall with a loud thud, forming a huge crater on the wall.


    The wall soon copsed from the impact, and Charles was crushed underneath the rubble.


    Caspian stood still with a calm expression as had already expected such an oue.


    He found Charles‘ attempt at killing him hrious. Even though Charles was an innate grandmaster, he


    had very little fighting experience. Charles‘ unstable and inexperienced stance revealed his weakness,


    resulting in his loss.


    The luxurious home had already turned into nothing but ruins and rubble.


    Caspian walked across the destroyed house and stood before the copsed wall.


    Charles spent his remaining strength to w his way out of the rubble.


    man.


    lger seemed as vigorous as he was just a moment ago, returning to being a feeble old.


    Charles stared at Caspian with terror.


    He realized that Caspian’s strength was way beyond what he had expected.


    Even an innate grandmaster like him, who could have easily been the strongest person alive within Ne


    w Bay, could not withstand his attacks.


    He was defeated with just a single blow.


    Charles finally realized that he was the frog in a well.


    His warnings to Caspian had returned to prick his own heart.


    There really was someone stronger than he was, and it appeared in the form of Caspian.


    For Charles, Caspian truly seemed like a demon from hell.


    He began to panic as Caspian slowly walked up to him.


    “Leave me alone, Caspian! Don’t get any closer!” shouted Charles.


    He felt unprecedented fear looking at the man who had defeated him.


    Charles had revealed all of his trump cards and truly had nothing left to offer.


    And he still couldn’t match Caspian’s strength.


    Charles had lost all hope at this point. He couldn’t think of any way to possibly defeat Caspian.


    An evil smile crept up on Caspian’s face as he stared at Charles on the floor.


    Charles trembled with fear as Caspian’s smile was so vile and evil that it made him look like the devil in


    carnate.


    “You still have a chance to live, Charles. But it depends on what you do next,” said Caspian.


    Charles was in disbelief as he looked up at Caspian. “You’ll let me go?”


    He wondered why Caspian would just let him off the hook when he could deal the final blow anytime no


    w.


    “You have a choice. You may hand over all of the Hoff family’s properties and funds, and I’ll guarantee t


    hat you’ll be safe,” answered Caspian.


    Caspian didn’t want the Hoff family’s abundant fortune to be sent abroad as it would be a major loss to


    Diatoran.


    Part of the Hoff family’s fortune might have been transferred


    overseas if he had simply killed Charles on the spot.


    He decided to keep Charles alive and have him willingly surrender his fortune back to the country.


    Charles furrowed his brows at the offer.


    He could tell what Caspian was trying to do.


    He simply couldn’t give away the fortune that he had painstakingly amassed for the majority of his life i


    n New Bay.


    But then again, exchanging his fortune for his survival was quite the sweet deal.


    This might be the end for Charles if he didn’t ept the deal.


    He had no other choice. He couldn’t physically defeat Caspian inbat.


    There would always be hope so long as he could live to see another day.


    He could always just regain what he had lost.


    “I ept your offer, Caspian. But can you really guarantee my safety? My only request is for you to let m


    Charles knew he would no longer be wee within New Bay when everything was settled.


    His only option was to escape overseas and restart anew.


    The Hoff family had retained some of their fortune in overseas ounts. It would allow him to live asv


    “You gotta be kidding me. Do you really think I would let you go after all the crimes you’vemitted?


    “You’ll be alive, yes, but you’ll be spending the rest


    of your life behind bars! I know what you’re thinking, old man. Besides, when I say surrender all of your

    He couldn’t possibly spend the rest of his life in prison.


    “You make it sound like we’re negotiating a deal or something. Remember, you either do as I say, or you


    Caspian was never seeking Charles‘ opinion on the matter.


    Charlesughed out loud. “So what if I’m dead, Caspian? That just means you won’t be getting

    Charles had already helped his son escape just in case the worst–case scenario happened.


    Even if he were to


    meet his end at Caspian’s hands, the Hoff family would continue its lineage overseas through his only so


    Caspianughed in response. “Things may not have gone as you nned, old man.”


    Charles looked back up at Caspian with confusion.


    Seeing how confident Caspian looked, he felt uneasy.


    Suddenly, a group of armed soldiers rushed into the house.


    The man leading the group was none other than the governor of New Bay, Alton, himself.


    Alton walked toward Caspian and knelt down with respect. “Mr. Lynch!”


    Charles was left utterly confused by the sight. He could only wonder why the governor was treating Cas


    Just who was Caspian, and what was his true identity?


    Just how powerful Caspian was to have Alton kneeling down before him?
