William slowly stood up and flatly said," Previously, when Lily's father scammed their family of over a billion, did we ask you to return? We are only asking for one hundred and fifty million now yet you complain that we're inhumane?"
At that moment, William's expression was extremely cold. "I'll tell you this, you better pass us the money tomorrow or I'm going to find someone to mortgage this house. Just prepare for Lily’s father to end up in jail if you don't obey."
William turned and left once he said that.

"How barbaric! How are we going to survive
Samantha was trembling in anger as she sat there with her tears started falling.
The next day, the Hexad School in Donghai City.
Donghai City was in an unprecedented crisis a year ago when the New World Army attacked. However, thanks to huge resistance and defense from each sect, Donghai City was saved such that the Hexad School was not even affected by the battle.
It was the weekend at that moment with students having their breaks. However, the Hexad School hall was surprisingly lively.
For the past two days, important news was spread throughout the entire martial arts community with Wudang and Shaolin being the leaders of the Five Sects who were planning to hold a martial arts conference in the Hexad School.
Ever since the New World Army attacked, the Five Sects have learned their lesson.
Donghai City had almost fallen into the enemy's hands because there was no unity among the sects and no unified command. Therefore, the Five Sects were prepared to force alliances and invited all the other sects as only by being united could they prepare for the next attack from the New World.
Most of the sect was already there when Darryl and his sworn brothers rushed to the hall.
In the middle of the hall, a huge stage was erected with dozens of seats that only sect masters were qualified to be seated there.
It could be seen that many sect masters like the Wudang Sect's Master Leonard, Shaolin’s Master Reed, Emei's Aurora Hansen, the Beggars Sect Master, Iron Palms, Giant Whales, and Shiv Sect were already seated there for some time.
Below the stage, thousands of people were seated in a sea of black with each of them being their sect's elites. It was an impressive view.
The other sect masters on stage stood up, smiled, and greeted them when Barry, Dax, and Chester entered the hall.
"Master Darby, I hope you're fine."
