"How could this little beast possibly not be dead?!"
Carl Clancy stood up abruptly, his body trembling all over.
He couldn’t help it; the fear that Lionel Yeager instilled in him was just too great.
Despite the combined efforts of the Clancy Family, the Nathan Family, and so many other families, they had failed to take over the industries under Lionel Yeager’s control.
Instead, their own industries had been taken over.
Moreover, it was he and Vic Nelson who had resorted to seeking help from the people of the Heaven-Spread Sect and the Purple Sky Sect, two great Immortal Gates, to finally subdue Lionel Yeager.
But now, his housekeeper was saying that Lionel Yeager wasn’t dead!
He shook his head vigorously, saying, "Impossible, it’s absolutely impossible!
That little beast Lionel Yeager couldn’t possibly be alive!"
The old housekeeper said with a sobbing tone, "Family owner, it’s true!
The people we sent to River City saw Lionel Yeager with their own eyes!"
"How could it be... How could this little beast possibly not be dead?!"
Carl Clancy was on the verge of going insane.
His face twisted ferociously, "Even Immortals made their move, how could they possibly have failed to kill this little beast!"
At that moment.
More voices were heard.
"Mr. Clancy, there’s trouble, big trouble!"
"That little beast Lionel Yeager isn’t dead, he’s not dead!"
"We’re done for, we’re all done for!"
Carl Clancy turned his head to look.
He saw a large group of people running over in a panic, their faces filled with terror.
Those coming were none other than Vic Nelson, Joey Hyde, Percy Jordan, Peak Tisdale, and the family owners of twenty other families.
The direct descendants of the various big families had also arrived.
"Elder Nathan, is it true that little beast Lionel Yeager really isn’t dead?!"
Carl Clancy quickly asked.
"He’s not dead, he really isn’t dead!"
Vic Nelson nodded repeatedly, "Our Nathan Family’s people saw that little beast Lionel Yeager with their own eyes!
And, the five martial artists we had stationed near No. 8 Villa in Divine River Garden have all gone missing!
Without a doubt, those five martial artists must have been killed by that little beast Lionel Yeager!"
"Damn it!"
Carl Clancy gnashed his teeth, "How is this little beast so hard to kill?!"
Vic Nelson swallowed hard and continued, "Moreover, this little beast is heading north, and he’s called who knows how many people, planning to take revenge on us and wipe out our big families!"
"It’s said that people from all of the Eight Great Sects of the Ancient Martial World have mobilized, along with many sects that are on good terms with that little beast!"
"Even Reginald Weston, the Martial Alliance Chief, and those people from the Hidden Dragon Pavilion have mobilized!"
"Basically, everyone who participated in the big war that night has made a move!"
The other family owners also voiced out, sharing the information they had gathered.
"What?!!"
Carl Clancy was completely dumbfounded, "This little beast dares to head north with so many people and even wants to exterminate our various big families?
Has he gone mad, is he crazy?!"
He completely lost his mind, sending the chessboard, chess pieces, and coffee set flying onto the ground!
Joey Hyde said sternly, "That little beast Lionel Yeager is a lawless character; he’s capable of doing anything!"
Percy Jordan also said in fear, "Indeed, back then, this little beast exterminated many families and even destroyed Ten Thousands of Swords Gate, one of the top sects in the Ancient Martial World!
Anybody who dared to oppose him was wiped out with thunderous methods!"
"Mr. Clancy, Mr. Nathan, please think of a solution quickly, what do we do now?!"
"If this little beast really brings so many people up north, we probably won’t be able to withstand it!"
"He intends to blood-wash our big families, to completely extinguish us!"
"Had we known, we would never have offended this little beast to death; now disaster is upon us!"
The other family owners panicked, each one at their wit’s end, not knowing what to do.
Even some regretted participating in the plan against Lionel Yeager.
"What’s the panic, what’s the panic, the sky isn’t falling down yet!"
Carl Clancy roared angrily.
He coldly swept his gaze over everyone present and said, "At this point, even if you regret it, it’s no use!
We are all in the same boat now, our fortunes and misfortunes are shared!"
Seeing Carl Clancy’s anger, the other family owners fell silent, not daring to speak.
But as Carl Clancy said.
It was too late for regret now.
Lionel Yeager was bent on destroying them.
They had no choice but to depend on the Clancy Family and the Nathan Family.
