"Take care of the bodies!
Fane's lips twisted into a bitter smile when he saw the bodies all over the ground. He had wanted to find the dragon scale without creating a ruckus, and he had never wanted to cause trouble in the first place.
He never thought that it would end up like this.
The Wagner family was dead. Furthermore, plenty of fighters from Gin City had died there as well. It seemed that plenty of powerful families from Swallow City would have their eyes on him and his family now.
However, now that he thought about it, it might not be a bad thing after all. At least the families who had set up a trap for him would be more cautious of him after this incident.
"I was so scared with so many people coming at once. Thank God all of you are strong. We would have died otherwise!"
Fiona and the others emerged from the house as they saw that the bodyguards were cleaning up the bodies.
Fiona patted her chest. It was evident that she was still recovering from the shock.
"You were amazing, dad. I want to be as strong as you when I grow up!"
Kylie ran over, staring at Fane with admiration, her eyes large and round and beautiful.
Fane was speechless for a moment at the sight. "Why did you allow Kylie to come?” h e said to Fiona and the others. "We haven't even finished cleaning up here. A child shouldn't be seeing all this!
"What's wrong with that? Didn't you yourself say that this was the City of Martial Arts, where plenty of families are i n a constant tussle of power, with some rising to eminence and others fading into obscurity? Plenty of people die every day. It’s normal. How can you expect her to face hardships in life if she’s never experienced it herself?”
Surprisingly, Fiona replied, rolling her eyes at Fane.
