"I hope that's the case. The main problem we have now is I'm not sure if Master Chiu can make it in time," Old Master looked a little solemn as he said.
"Even if we proceed without Master Chiu, Fade would not dare to touch a single hair on Miss Sasha. She is the eldest child of the Li family and is your granddaughter after all. Her status might save her from harm," Owen replied.
Old Master couldn't help but frown after hearing that, snorting coldly as he muttered, "Fade went overboard this time."
"Since he had cured me of my previous illness, I had been planning to reward him with a high-status position. Who knew that it would turn out like this? He's too self-absorbed to comprehend common sense! He even laid his hands on Sasha!"
Old Master slapped his hand on the armrest in anger, boiling with rage.
At that moment, Fenrir did not once acknowledge that the cause of the whole issue was that his family had broken their promise. They had breached the contract they signed with Fade, giving the Fire Blame Plant to Titan Chiu instead.
Perhaps this was a mentality all powerful families had.
They were under the impression that only other people were to blame for their faults; they themselves could do no wrong.
"After this, I'll have to restructure Jade City. This is my family's territory after all. I can't believe a kid from Dragonville is stirring up so much trouble! He's really getting on my nerves; it's simply atrocious!" Fenrir snarled.
Owen nodded fervently at that and said, "Old Master, your health has gotten a lot better. If you confront him personally, I'm sure you'll be able to show him up in a blaze of glory!"
"You really are a smooth talker. Alright then, let me rest for a bit. There's still a few hours left before we land," Fenrir replied as he closed his eyes.
Meanwhile, Jade City seemed to be bustling with action in the night.
The Li family had begun to seek out various connections and found plenty of people to help them out. The search for Fade and Sasha was initiated.
The police, the military, merchants, martial arts sects, even the gangsters who walked the streets of Jade City had all come together at this time. They began scouring the city in search of news.
The Li family who was fully mobilised had demonstrated its unparalleled appeal at that moment.
Even though Fade had the police and military help from Director Xu and Leonardo, the leader of the Stealth Team, to help cover his tracks, the people in Jade City managed to track him down. Of course, this was also partly because Fade was not deliberately hiding.
Fade had brought Sasha to a dense mountaintop.
They were now on Eastset Mountain, located on the east side of Sunset Mountain. It was a picturesque mountain that emanated a floral fragrance where bird chirps could be heard.
This mountain would have been a popular tourist attraction. However, as it was on the east side of Sunset Mountain, Master Chiu regarded it as the gateway to Titan Studio. That was why he would not allow it to be further developed into one.
As such, the top of the mountain was deserted and very quiet.
At that moment, Fade dragged Sasha towards a boulder that was situated there.
He sat cross-legged on the boulder and closed his eyes. He then began to meditate and recuperate.
Ever since he had gotten wind of Fenrir having given the Fire Blame Plant to Titan Chiu, he had already anticipated that Titan was likely to challenge him.
As such, he did not bring Sasha back to the hotel. If he did, he might drag Quin and Lily into this mess.
As night fell, the mountain fell into darkness accompanied with a drop in temperature.
