Chapter 281 The Kane Family of Dhord City
Willow had just entered the villa when an SUV drove in.
“Caspian, you’re finally back! Everyone missed you!” Macy winked at Caspian as she said.
“Don’t joke around!” Caspian frowned and said coldly.
He then entered the SUV.
“What’s with the outburst?” Macy asked.
She was only joking around with Caspian. After all, he was still the Diatoran God of War. She would not dare to go too far with her jokes.
Macy brought Caspian to a café.
Both of them took a seat.
“How’s everything going?” Caspian asked.
“It’s done. Billy managed to escape, but the rest were completely obliterated,” Macy replied with a nod.
“Well done. I’ll make sure that Southlake City becomes a safer place in the future. We must not let anyone like Billy come in and wreak havoc,” Caspian said to Macy as he looked at her.
Macy nodded and replied, “Yes, sir!”
Macy fully obliged Caspian’s wishes. The fact that she could stay in Southlake City for such a long time was because of Caspian.
If he had sent her back to South Aridlands, she might have died from boredom by now. Being in Southlake City meant she had things to do.
It was at this moment that a car pulled up in front of the café.
Sylvia got out of her car hastily and walked into the café.
After finishing up the task in Naporia, Sylvia took the first flight back to Southlake City.
Although she was a general officer, she wanted to be more respectful in front of Caspian.
“We’ve successfully eradicated the Four Noble Lineages as instructed. Melvin of Celestial Sanctum no longer dares to return to Easton,” Sylvia said.
“Well done. There are many forces in Naporia anyway. Melvin wouldn’t dare to act rashly. Both of you have done a great job this time around,” Caspian nodded and said.
“Thank you, Caspian!” Sylvia and Macy said simultaneously.

“By the way, I’ve been busy for too long. I need a rest. I’d like the both of you to handle whatever that comes up in Southlake City,” Caspian said.
He then rose from his seat and was prepared to leave.
“Yes, Caspian!” Sylvia and Macy replied.
They had become accustomed to serving Caspian as he needed.
Caspian was their role model.
Meanwhile, at York Residence, Celestia was having a breakdown.
“Dad! When do you plan on avenging me? My face has been ruined by Caspian! Nob*dy will want me anymore. I don’t want to live anymore!” Celestia cried as she covered her face with her hands. She had a veil on her face.
She had been depressed after returning from Southlake City:
She had vowed to make Caspian pay for what he had done to her.
Nob*dy expected that Caspian would be so powerful. Not only did he kill the strongest person in the York family, but he even disfigured Celestia’s face.
She had sought the finest doctor in Dhord City, but her face was now covered in scars. She no longer dared to let others see her bare face.
How could Wendell just sit there without an ounce of anger in him?
However, now that Ivan had been killed, the York family had lost their greatest support.
They failed to obtain the resources in Southlake City as well.
The York family was in a precarious position now. They were already considered the more
fortunate ones.
Wendell could only lament upon seeing his dispirited daughter.
“My daughter! I wish I could avenge you too, but Caspian’s much too mysterious. Haven’t heard about the recent incident? Caspian went to Naporia and destroyed Galecrest. Do you think we’re any greater than Galecrest?” Wendell sighed.
“What?
Celestia was utterly shocked.

She had been locking herself up inside York Residence without going anywhere. How could she have known about the things that had been happening outside?

She was surprised when she heard about the news from her father.
Who was Caspian? How could he have destroyed Galecrest?
Galecrest was qualified to be considered a second–rate force in Dhord City. Nonetheless, event
such a powerful organization was not able to escape Caspian’s clutches.
It was truly inconceivable.
Wendell was not surprised by Celestia’s shock
When he first heard about it, he could not believe it either.
However, once he had confirmed that the rumors were true, he could only accept it.
To seek revenge against Caspian now would merely be wishful thinking. Wendell did not dare to act recklessly.
“Celestia, I know that it’s hard to believe, but it’s all true!” Wendell said as he looked at
Celestia.
“It’s impossible! There’s no way! Caspian’s merely a pathetic matrilocal son–in–law who had to submit to his wife’s family.
“There’s no f**king way that he’s capable of such a feat!” Celestia yelled hysterically as she
shook her head.
She could not accept it.
She was already disfigured. If she could not seek revenge on Caspian, she would be better off
dead.
“Dad! So you’re telling me there’s no other way? I can’t just let this go without making him pay for what he has done to me!” Celestia said as she glared at Wendell.
“Well, it’s not entirely impossible…” Wendell said thoughtfully.
“Tell me, Dad! What options do we have? Celestia demanded eagerly.
“Galecrest of Naporia has a close relationship with the Kane family of Dhord City. Caspian’s destruction of Galecrest is practically a declaration of war against the Kane family because it was a stronghold for the Kane family to expand their powers.
“The Kane family will definitely not spare Caspian for what he has done.
“If we could ally ourselves with the Kane family, we might have a chance at getting back at Caspian!” Wendell said.
This was the only solution he could think of.
Upon hearing this, Celestia’s hope was rekindled.
+15 BONUS
The reason for this was because she knew very well that the Kane family of Dhord City was much more powerful than the York family.
Although they were all part of the same tier, the Kane family was considered to be in the topmost position.
It should be easy for them to deal with Caspian.
“Dad, why don’t we go look for the Kane family to discuss our collaboration now?” Celestial aşked impatiently.
“But once we approach them for help, they’ll definitely ask for something in return…” Wendell said hesitantly.
With the current situation, it would not be as simple as merely asking for a collaboration. They might even have to become vassals of the Kane family and obey their orders in the future.
“Dad, stop hesitating! Caspian has already killed our strongest eternal grandmaster. We can’t afford to sit back and wait for death to come!
“We need to find someone to help us. Otherwise, someone else might start targeting us soon!” Celestia said impatiently.
“Alright, let’s look for them now to discuss this matter!” Wendell gritted his teeth and said. They really had no other options left. They could only rely on the Kane family now.
Wendell brought Celestia along with him and headed to Kane Residence.
Meanwhile, tension was rising at Kane Residence.

Inside the reception hall, Cole was kneeling on the ground. His knees had begun to become numb.
Nevertheless, he did not dare to move an inch. He could only continue kneeling where he was.
The reason for this was because the person sitting in front of him was the head of the Kane family, Chandler Kane.
Chandler Kane was almost 70 years old. He had been the head of the Kane family for decades.
