Chapter 1198 Men Marshaled
Meanwhile, after Gonzo left the village, Oakley immediately had the village’s defenses fortified greatly.
“Brody, send some men to defend the place where Mr. Chance is currently. Make sure no one gets too close to the place. You will also personally safeguard that place, and you mustn’t make a move at all cost,” Oakley said to Brody.
Upon receiving his order, Brody nodded and left right away. When he left, he had a few considerably stronger individuals in the Village of Villains brought along with him to safeguard the Pentacarna Tower.
At the same time, Jared was sitting with his legs crossed in the tower.
Around him was spiritual energy so condensed that the energy formed countless little whirlpools around him.
With the Focus Technique utilized to the maximum efficiency, Jared’s elixir field absorbed all the spiritual energy voraciously.
Three days passed in a blink of an eye as he poured all his focus onto his cultivation while Gonzo was already back to Marsingfill.
Gonzo had no idea when his brother would come out from his cultivation session.
He reckoned that Jared would be gone from the Village of Villains if he waited for his brother.
“Send an invitation to all the families and sects in Marsingfill’s martial arts world that have ties to the Rowling family. Tell them that I need their help. With our combined power, I will crush the Village of Villains and make them surrender Jared to me!” Gonzo ordered with an eerily chilling expression.
“Mr. Gonzo, are we not going to wait for Mr. Enzo and discuss with him about this decision?” the butler carefully said.
“What did you say? Did I not make myself clear? Get your *ss moving right now!” Gonzo roared at the butler immediately, to which the butler hurriedly left Gonzo to execute the order he received.
One day was all it took for all the families and sects in Marsingfill’s martial arts world to assemble in the Rowling residence.
After all, nobody in Marsingfill was brave enough to disobey the Rowling family, which was the most powerful family in the area.
Aside from that, the head of the Rowling family, Enzo Rowling, was a man of pure passion. He had spent all his time cultivating and honing his skills.
At this point, Enzo’s strength had become a mystery to the world.
Sitting on the main seat right now was Gonzo, delighted to see the many representatives and heads of the various families and sects.
“Everyone, I summoned you all here today because I wish to ask a favor from all of you,” Gonzo stated to the many individuals.
“Mr. Gonzo, please let us know what you need. We’d be more than happy to help if it is something within our capabilities!” one of the old men donning a white robe said.
“Yes. The Rowling family’s problem is also our problem too. Without the Rowling family, the enemies out there would’ve jumped at us long ago!”
“That’s right! The martial arts world in Marsingfill must stay united! All we need is just a word from you, Mr. Gonzo!”
The many representatives and leaders tried their best to lick the Rowling family’s boots.
In an instant, Gonzo became overconfident as cockiness and arrogance were shown all over his face.
He expressed, “I thank you all for showing up today and respecting us. Now, how should I make this straightforward to everyone?”
He took a sip of his coffee and continued, “To be honest, my nephew was murdered a few days ago, and we’ve only brought him home recently.”
In that split second, the many people on the scene all found their hearts skipping a beat at Gonzo’s shocking news.
Who dares to kill the heir of the Rowling family? Is this person having a death wish or what?
“Mr. Gonzo, who is the murderer? He’s looking for his demise!” one of the sects’ leaders asked.
“The murderer’s name is Jared. Jared Chance,” Gonzo answered.
“Jared?” Most of them were confused, for they had no idea who Jared was.
But there were also a few of them that found themselves experiencing shock after hearing Jared’s name.
“I know him. I’ve heard of his name. It appears that he has been very popular recently after defeating Edgar Deragon. He also killed Warren Gordon and the Malison Sect’s leader, Quintus Zabel, after the sect leader hunted him. It’s just that I didn’t think Mr. Coby would become another victim of his.”
The person talking right then appeared to be in his thirties. Though he looked young, he was already the head of a sect in Marsingfill.
When everyone heard the man’s explanation, they finally realized just how dangerous Jared was, for not only did he put himself entirely against the Deragons, but he had also found himself on bad terms with Jadeborough’s Warriors Alliance.
Aside from that, the most powerful family in Marsingfill had also become a new enemy to Jared.
