That's strange. Why would Mr. Tang suddenly give such an order in the middle of the night?

It did not take long for the ever-wily Bill to sense that something was off.

“Who am I to speculate Mr. Tang's intentions? You'd do well to carry out the order you were given, Mr.

Jones. That way, I'll be able to report to Mr. Tang as soon as possible.” The envoy from the Chu Sect

urged Bill to carry out the execution immediately.

Bill hesitated for a moment before questioning, “Do you have Ms. Tang's decree?”

“Ms. Tang's out campaigning right now. Besides, such a trivial matter doesn't deserve her attention,”

replied the envoy.

“I advise you to stop dallying, Mr. Jones. Otherwise, Mr. Tang will make sure your family's position in

the Chu Sect becomes even more precarious,” he then stated in a stern voice, seemingly running short

on patience.

When Bill heard that, inwardly, he became aware of many things.

It seems that Mr. Tang has taken the liberty of making the decision.

Upon realizing that, Bill immediately responded, “Sorry, but I'm afraid I cannot carry out the execution.

Ms. Tang has specifically instructed me not to execute those four without her order.”

“How dare you defy Mr. Tang's order, Bill Jones!” The face of the Chu Sect's envoy instantly turned

grim.

“Mr. Tang is the head of Mount Chumen for now since Ms. Tang isn't around. His words are decrees of

the highest authority. You're courting your own death for daring to defy the head of Mount Chumen, Mr.

Jones!” roared the envoy.

Obviously, he never expected that the head of the Jones family would dare disobey Tang Xian.

“As I said, I won't lift a finger until I receive an order from Ms. Tang. Tell Mr. Tang that he'll have to get

Ms. Tang's approval before I carry out the execution. The last thing I want is to defy Ms. Tang's order,

so please leave.” Having decided not to waste any more time on the envoy, Bill gestured for his

subordinates to see the man out.

“Very well! You've got guts, if nothing else. We'll see if you still have them after I report this to Mr. Tang!”

the envoy threatened him before storming off with a hardened face.

“What's going on, Dad?” inquired Michael Jones, who had just arrived in the living room after changing

his clothes.

He greeted the upset envoy coming his way, but the man simply ignored him.

Confused, Michael decided to approach his father to get some answers.

However, instead of replying to his son, Bill asked him to follow him to the study.

“Stand guard here and ensure that nobody gets in without my say-so!” Bill ordered a few trusted

subordinates before leading his son into the room.

After ensuring that they were not followed, the father and son duo opened the passageway to a secret

chamber, which was luxuriously decorated and fully furnished.

In the middle of the room was a large bed, and lying quietly on the bed was a gorgeous young woman

with fair skin and exquisite facial features.

She was so beautiful that one could be forgiven for thinking that she was an angel.

The only fly in the ointment was the white gauze covering her eyes.

If Ye Fan were there, he would definitely recognize the attractive young lady, for she was none other

than Angie, the woman who crossed the ocean in search of him.

“What's wrong, Dad? Why are we visiting Angie this late at night? What exactly did the envoy from the

Chu Sect tell you?” questioned Michael anxiously because he could tell something was wrong.

As before, Bill was in no hurry to respond to his son's queries. Instead, he sat down on the side of the

bed.

The man then gently stroked his daughter's soft cheek with his large palm.

“Michael, do you think your sister would be even prettier now if it weren't for that incident?” Even

though Bill slightly curved his lips upward, his smile was filled with nothing but sadness and bitterness.

Seeing his father like that, Michael subconsciously clenched his fists.

“Don't worry, Dad. I promise you that I'll find out who hurt Angie and make them pay the ultimate price!”

he vowed through clenched teeth, his eyes burning with hatred.

As one of the Three Families of the Chu Sect, the Joneses used to live a glorious and happy life.

However, everything changed after Chu Tianfan stormed the Chu Sect, and Angie went searching for

him in China, only to end up in an accident.

Since that fateful day, the Jones family's peaceful life was turned upside down.

Bill no longer smiled, and the rest of the family members seemed to be treading on thin ice.

To make things worse, the Joneses' status in the Chu Sect plummeted.

In less than three years, the Jones family lost their position as one of the ten Chu Sect elders.

In other words, they had been completely kicked out of the sect's management.

All that happened after Angie got in the accident, so naturally, Michael had all the more reasons to hate

the person who harmed his sister.

Unexpectedly, Bill smiled in response. “My son, have you not figured out the person responsible for the

tragedy that befell your sister yet?”

Shocked, Michael quickly questioned, “Dad, you know who the person is?”

His father chuckled before shaking his head. “The truth is that I've always known the culprit's identity—

since Chu Tianfan attacked the Chu Sect the second time, since a woman who called herself the

medical saint of Dragon God Hall sent your sister back to us, and since Chu Tianqi reached a

breakthrough, ceased his training, and summoned a Sacred Beast. The people who took Angie's eyes

are Chu Zhengliang and his son. If I'm not mistaken, her Jade Eyes were transplanted to Chu Tianqi.”

What? Michael was utterly mind-blown when he heard his father's words.

“How... How is this possible?” he stammered as his eyes widened like saucers.

The man could not believe that the Chus were the culprits of such a despicable act.

After all, the Chus and the Joneses were close friends, not to mention that Chu Tianqi, who had been

his best friend since youth, almost became his brother-in-law.

“T-That can't be it, Dad. It's... It's just not possible. We're the Three Families of the Chu Sect, so why

would the Chus do something as cruel as this to us?” Michael found the revelation hard to accept, even

though his father was absolutely sure about it.

“Back then, we all thought Chu Tianfan was responsible for what happened to your sister, but we were

wrong, terribly wrong! Perhaps, the man's the only person in the world who has pure, good intentions

for Angie and would stop at nothing to avenge her. We had to worry about our family and clan, but not

him. He was ready to do whatever it took to avenge Angie as soon as he learned that the Chus were

responsible. It's funny how we, as Angie's father and brother, failed to compare to an outsider.” Bill

smiled bitterly with his eyes full of shame.

“Dad, are you... Are you sure it's the Chus?” inquired Michael again in a weak and trembling voice.

“Who else could it be if not them? Only those who had inherited Jade Eyes from our family can

summon the Sacred Beast, Blaze. Your sister was the only one of us who had them. Yet, coincidentally,

Chu Tianqi's strength skyrocketed shortly after Angie's eyes got taken, and he even managed to

summon Blaze, having it at his beck and call. Tell me. How is it possible for someone like him to

accomplish such a feat if your sister's Jade Eyes weren't transplanted to him?”
