Chapter 3778
“The Torres family?”
Harvey froze.
“What does this have to do with the Torres family?”
“There’s something you don’t know, Sir York,” George said quietly.
“After Elder Colton retired, he became a nominal leader of Country H’s Martial Arts Alliance. This was why his status was still
exceptionally high in Flutwell after his retirement.”
Harvey was surprised; he didn’t think Colton would have a title like that.
“That said, Country H’s Martial Arts Alliance is just an alliance for the sacred martial arts training grounds. It seems like an
organization on the outside, but in reality, the sacred martial arts training grounds have
control of it.”
“Elder Torres barely has any authority. The authority is split up between the vice leaders of the sacred martial arts training
grounds here.”
“Now that this is happening, there are a lot of people in the Martial Arts Alliance with their own motives. This had led them to
conspire with our enemies from outside.”
“Everyone is now dragging Elder Torres back for him to take control of the situation.
“On the one hand, everyone’s hoping to use his fame and reputation to stabilize the situation.”
“On the other hand, they want you to give up by using your relationship with the Torres family.”
“After all, if you admit to the Indians that you only got this far using underhanded tricks, the position as the young master of
Longmen would have nothing to do with you anymore.”
“These people thought of everything!”
“That said, Elder Torres is an honest man. He knew you were wronged and schemed against.”
“Even though he’s under immense pressure, he never came here to ask for your help.”
“That said, I don’t know how long he can hold out. The vice leader, Dane Benett, had been constantly pestering Elder Torres for
the past few days.”
“Dane is the elder of Golden Palace’s outer circle, Emily’s father, and also Koen’s father-in-law.”
George quickly explained Colton’s situation and Dane’s identity.
“In any case, Dane’s been demanding Elder Torres to deal with the situation quickly and give an explanation to the four great
Martial Arts Alliances and everyone involved.”
“Interesting. Really interesting.”
Harvey clapped.
“I didn’t think that there would be more problems after such a calm few days.
“Everyone’s preparing for me to screw up before taking me down.”
Harvey put down his teacup and stood up.
“Where’s the office building of the Martial Arts Alliance?”
“Let’s go take a look.”
Half an hour later, Harvey arrived at an office building at the center of Flutwell.
This was one of the Martial Arts Alliance’s branches and also Colton’s place of work.
Since Colton was just a nominal leader, he would only show up a few times every single year. That said, he had been visiting a
lot the past few days.
George easily navigated the building with Harvey. They soon arrived at an office room on the ninth floor.
After knocking on the door, they saw Colton inside. He was wearing a tunic suit; even though he looked quite old by then, an
impressive aura of an elite was still exuding from him.
He was talking to a few workers, and froze when he saw Harvey.
“Sir York! Come on in. It’s just about lunchtime. Come have a meal with this old man,” Colton said with a faint smile.
