“Hubby!”

Willow had returned. At the same time, Sylvia silently excused herself.
After Sylvia left, Willow immediately threw herself into Caspian’s arms.
“How was it? Did you have a good time?” Caspian asked while stroking Willow’s hair.
Willow nodded, leaning against Caspian. “Yeah, it was pretty good. I managed to take a break amidst the busy schedule. It’s a good time to relax.”
“You came back at the right time. Someone just sent over a big present.” Caspian handed the gift list to Willow.
“What is it?” Willow took the list and examined it closely.
“So many properties? And a publicly listed company! This is substantial! Is this for real?” Willow exclaimed in surprise.
“Hubby, what’s happening?” Willow asked again. She was utterly astonished.
“These are gifts from several prestigious families in Naporia. Now, they’re all yours. It’ll be helpful when Southlake Corporation expands its business in Naporia later,” Caspian said with
a smile.
“What? These families are so generous, casually giving gifts worth billions of dollars? It’s truly unexpected!”
Willow was pleasantly surprised.
She didn’t intend to expand the business when she and Caspian came over Naporia this time. They just wanted to enjoy themselves.
She would have never expected to receive such an enormous gift.
Willow was no longer surprised. Given Caspian’s status, it was natural for the families to try and gain his favor.
Suddenly, the sound of a stomach growling sounded.
Willow’s face flushed. Her stomach grumbled loudly.
‘Are you hungry from shopping?” Caspian asked in a soft tone.
“Yeah…” Willow nodded, feeling a little embarrassed.
Caspian laughed. “Perfect timing! I haven’t explored Naporia myself yet. I heard there’s a food street here. Let’s go check it out together.”
“Great!” Willow exclaimed excitedly.
Caspian held her hand, and they left the hotel together.

Meanwhile, in Easton ….
“Have you made up your mind? There’s not much time left. Make a decision quickly,” Billy
asked Howard and the others.
He initially thought that the influential families in Easton would be able to make a decisive. choice, but it turned out that they were hesitant. This somewhat upset Billy.
For him to establish a foothold in Galecrest, Cole had demanded him several times to quickly discuss the countermeasures against Celestial Sanctum with the Four Noble Lineages in
Easton.
Billy had been patient and spent an hour or two discussing with them.
Finally, the heads of the Four Noble Lineages exchanged glances and nodded to each other.
“Billy, how can you expect us to believe in you when you suddenly appeared and claimed to be a representative of Galecrest?” Howard asked, looking at Billy.
Howard and the others knew Billy’s character too well.
When Mahayan Pavilion was still in Easton, Billy did nothing but fool around with women. Without Mahayan Pavilion, he was nothing but a loser. Such a person appearing and claiming to annihilate Celestial Sanctum was naturally unbelievable to them.
“That’s fine if you don’t believe me. But this person here, Night Shadow, is the right–hand. man of the master of Galecrest. Surely you’ll trust him?” Billy felt helpless and had to bring up Night Shadow.
At his words, Night Shadow, who had been standing silently to the side, took a couple of steps. forward.
Then, he took out a gang emblem from his pocket. Emblazoned on it was the word “Galecrest“.
As Howard saw the word, his expression stiffened.
The Galecrest’s emblem was extremely unique, and no ordinary person would have the guts to duplicate it.
Once discovered, anyone impersonating the master of Galecrest would be dead by all means.
“Mr. Luckerman, do you still have any doubts about this? Truth to be told, both my dad and I have joined Galecrest. This alliance is an excellent opportunity for you.

“As long as you agree, Galecrest will help you eliminate Celestial Sanctum. I don’t need to say more about the benefits that will follow, right?” Billy said with a smile.
Billy’s offer tempted the four of them. However, Celestial Sanctum was incredibly powerful, beyond what they could confront.
If they made a mistake, they would be in an irredeemable situation. Without absolute certainty, nob*dy dared to act recklessly.
“What do we need to do? Celestial Sanctum’s strength is something we can’t fight with. They’ve trained many ancient martial experts.” Howard expressed his concerns.
“Mr. Luckerman, please rest assured. Melvin isn’t in Easton right now. He’s gone to Naporia and won’t be back for a while. This is an extremely rare opportunity for you all!”
Seeing Howard and the others hesitate, Billy said helplessly, “Moreover, Night Shadow is an eternal grandmaster, and he can assist you greatly!”
Hearing this, everyone looked at Night Shadow in disbelief.
Eternal grandmasters were ranked the best among the martial experts.
Despite his
age, Howard was at the highest level of the third tier, but there was still a considerable gap between him and an eternal grandmaster.
As long as Night Shadow was willing to help, and with Melvin absent from Easton, there was a good chance they could take down Celestial Sanctum.
“But what if Caspian and Melvin return? Won’t we be in trouble then?” Howard was still somewhat uneasy.
The thought of Caspian made him and the others shudder.
Caspian not only possessed formidable strength, but his tactics were also unpredictable.
Unless everything was foolproof, Howard wouldn’t agree to attack Celestial Sanctum.
“What a scaredy–cat. No wonder you never achieve anything! You’re wasting a good opportunity here. Caspian and Melvin won’t possibly return from Naporia, Mr. Wilson has already decided to eliminate them. Your worries are completely unnecessary!” Billy said impatiently.
At his words, a glint flashed in the eyes of Howard and the rest.
If Caspian and Melvin were killed, they would no longer have anything to fear.
With this realization, the group exchanged glances and then nodded in agreement.
“It wouldn’t be fair to refuse Mr. Jennings after all the advice you’ve given to us. We’ve made up our minds. We’ll join forces with you to deal with Celestial Sanctum.” Howard laughed out

Seeing Howard’s agreement, Billy felt a deep sense of relief. As long as he could the mission, he would become the senior member of Galecrest.

‘Since that’s settled, let us act immediately. Seize the opportunity to wipe out Celestial Sanctum!” Billy commanded with the air of a leader.
Previously, when Celestial Sanctum annihilated Mahayan Pavilion, it became a blood feud.
Now, they were finally striking back.
The Four Noble Lineages immediately mobilized their forces and launched a sudden attack.
Caught off guard, Celestial Sanctum was left without their leader and suffered a deadly blow from the ambush. In a short time, they lost their significant territories, and even their headquarters was breached.
The surviving members of Celestial Sanctum traveled day and night, rushing toward Naporia, trying to seek Melvin’s help.
