"How about this? I understand that this will be difficult even for you, Grandmaster Collins. I don't wish to push you into a corner. After all, there will be unimaginable consequences if the entire Woods family were to be wiped out. See if this works for you then. The Woods family will definitely go into the Seven Dangers soon. We'll keep in contact, and I'll tell you which danger zone they went into!
"After you enter the danger zone and finds Nash, Fane, and their First Elder, Kenneth, help me kill the three of them. That shouldn't be too hard, right? The area has always been chaotic, so it's not easy for people to be seen. It shouldn't be a problem if you only kill these three people!"
Lily pretended to be deep in thought for a moment before speaking her mind, "And so long as the three of them are dead, the Lagorio family will definitely clinch victory if we were to attack the Woods family. Battles between reclusive families shouldn't bother you, right?"
"That makes sense!"
Joel nodded his head. Then he looked at the Eighth Elder of the Lagorio family." However, I still wish to discuss this matter further with your Eldest Miss," he told the Eighth Elder. "I hope that you can wait outside for a while. There is a banyan tree outside the palace. You can wait there!"
The Eighth Elder was surprised, unable to comprehend why the old man suddenly wanted him to leave but he did not dare to make a single protest. He simply bobbed his head and raised his arms into a fist-to-palm salute, striding out of the palace.
Lily also furrowed her brows. She did not know what the old man wanted from her.
She looked at him for a while." Grandmaster Collins, I do not understand why you made my subordinate leave all of the sudden," she said. "He's the Eighth Elder of my family, and so he is one of my own. He already knows everything we talked about here. Was that truly necessary?"
"Haha, how would you know that wasn’t necessary, sweetheart?"
Joel curled his fingers as if he were pulling Lily over. A frightening energy dragged Lily toward him, and he wrapped an arm of his around her waist.
