Chapter 426: Chapter 399: Threats, the Ancestral God is a bit adorable (2 more)

"The Hawthorne family wants to do a lot of things, and they’re trying to open the old entrance to Dark City."

"The Golden Gate!" Old Lynch was shocked again, "The Hawthorns are too greedy, aren’t they afraid of overstretching themselves?"

"Golden Gate?" Chloe Stephens looked a bit strange, "It’s just a broken gate, not a golden one. However, the structure inside is indeed made of pure gold."

"..."

Old Lynch thought the girl’s mind was really a bit abnormal.

Should he give her some medicine?

"I’ll have Evan Taylor contact you."

Chloe said, getting up to leave.

Old Lynch thought he had misheard and stopped her, "What did you just say? Evan Taylor? Taylor Family Head?"

"Hmm."

"..."

Old Lynch thought she really needed to have her brain checked.

But on second thought, Chloe’s abilities were extraordinary, so it was impossible for her to have a problem with her brain.

"The Sheffield City families are being targeted by the Hawthorne family, you should all join forces to deal with it."

Instead of letting her single-handedly solve everything.

She had come back, but not to sweep away obstacles for others.

She was still searching for the confusion in her heart.

"What about Captain Hawthorne? Doesn’t he need to be informed?"

Chloe’s gaze was somewhat deep, "He has nothing to do with the Hawthorne family."

Dark City.

Shop No.9 received an unwelcome guest.

Entering Dark City, Jade Hawthorne didn’t even bother to hide, and went straight to Granny Brooks.

Granny Brooks stared at Jade Hawthorne sitting in the shop with cold eyes, her heart full of displeasure.

"Granny Brooks, I know you specialize in collecting all kinds of rare treasures and selling various internal news and other businesses here, so my purpose in coming this time is to ask you to help me."

"Miss Hawthorne," although Granny Brooks wasn’t a good person, she hadn’t been as arrogant as Jade Hawthorne, "I don’t think I have anything to help you with."

It couldn’t be a small favor for someone from the Hawthorne family.

She had to avoid them if she couldn’t afford to.

"I know the Fisher Family courted disaster because they offended you, but the Hawthorne family is different from the Fisher Family. I hope Granny Brooks will consider whether or not she wants to help me. There are naturally benefits to working for the Hawthorne family."

Jade Hawthorne got up, her smile full of determination exceptionally glaring.

Granny Brooks sent her out with a cold face, "Thank you for your favor, Miss Hawthorne, but I’m old and can’t create more valuable benefits for you young people, so I won’t mix with your young affairs."

This was a refusal.

Jade Hawthorne was not happy in her heart.

Standing by the door, she turned back to look at Granny Brooks, suddenly saying, "I remember Granny Brooks, you have a granddaughter who’s an ordinary person studying at a university in the Imperial Capital, right?"

Granny Brooks’ face changed instantly!

Jade Hawthorne was still smiling, "Granny Brooks should know my contact number, I hope we can cooperate happily."

Granny Brooks stared at Jade Hawthorne with resentment.

Jade Hawthorne smiled at her, then left stealthily with her people through the back passage.

The two-story old tower next to the Taylor Family Pharmacy.

A figure stood quietly in the wind.

Evan Taylor hurried up from the stairwell, bowing to the girl, "You’re here."

"You go to the Lynch family."

"This is?"

Evan Taylor was puzzled.

The Taylor family and the Lynch family had disliked each other for a long time in the past, although not to the point of being irreconcilable enemies.

Since they walked the same path, both families were very clear about their differences in medical skills.

People from both families didn’t like to interact.

The Taylor family had their own pride, and so did the Lynch family.

More than a hundred years ago, the two families often fought because of disputes over medical skills.

After Evan Taylor took control, he didn’t allow the Taylor family and the Lynch family to compete, so the two families kept their distance.

Now Chloe asked him to take the initiative to reach out to Dale Lynch. If someone else had said this, Evan Taylor would have swept them out the door long ago.

But it was Chloe who said it.

He had to listen.

"The Hawthorne family wants to do something behind the scenes, and I don’t want to see Sheffield City fall into chaos anytime soon."

Evan Taylor understood immediately.

The ancestral god was helping the Stephens family indirectly.

Or rather, helping Adam Stephens.

Evan Taylor couldn’t help but glance at Chloe.

"What?" Chloe turned her head and asked.

"I was thinking about how we’re going to negotiate with Master Lynch."

"That’s your own business."

Evan Taylor felt it was a little awkward getting help from an ancestral god.

Uh, and also kind of cute.

This should be the way people on the internet describe Chloe’s behavior, right?

"I will personally call Master Lynch."

"Hmm," Chloe nodded her head, "Last time I took action, my body was somewhat damaged, and it’s inconvenient for me to do anything for now. Try to handle things on your own if you can."

Hearing this made Evan somewhat concerned: "I wasn’t able to get you to look at it when you went to the Stephens house, let me take your pulse now."

"It’s an internal injury, I can take care of it myself." Chloe waved her hand and headed downstairs.

*

Stephens family.

Adam Stephens came back with some people, but many of them had been injured.

Knowing that the Slaughter Squad had intervened, the elders sitting here had no way to criticize Adam.

Because the Stephens family had performed well, those stationed at the Stephens house earlier had withdrawn, so they would rather avoid provoking the Slaughter Squad if they could.

"Since the Slaughter Squad has intervened, we can only slow down for now."

Pierce Stephens finally made a decision.

The Stephens elders were unhappy, "So we’re just going to let it go? That Jade Hawthorne wants all our Hawthorne family members’ lives."

Backing down now would only make the other party more arrogant.

And they would think that the Stephens family was easy to bully.

Pierce Stephens looked at this outspoken elder: "So in your opinion, how should we handle the current situation?"

Everyone fell silent again.

Pierce’s voice grew stern: "I only said to slow down, not let it go. Our Stephens family is not spineless; we know how to fight back when others take advantage of us. But we need the right strategy and not jeopardize the entire Stephens family just by taking action."

Some people still felt Pierce was being too cautious.

It was just a little girl from the Hawthorne family; what was there to be afraid of?

Pierce Stephens thought of many possibilities.

Jade Hawthorne was the representative of the entire Hawthorne family in Sheffield City, and moving against her would mean declaring war on the entire Hawthorne family.

The Stephens family was not prepared for this. How could they go head-to-head with the Hawthornes?

Seeing that Pierce Stephens had more or less taken control of the situation, Adam left with his men.

*

Leaving Building 1.

Alex Stephens was a bit worried and said to Adam: "We’ve taken action, will the Hawthornes think of other ways to retaliate?"

"Be careful outside," Adam thought of his daughter who recently liked to go out and play with her classmates, his eyebrows furrowed.

When the two returned home, Yvette Foster had already prepared a table full of dishes and was chatting with Chloe on the sofa.

Mother and daughter were in a very harmonious atmosphere.

Adam was originally full of frustration, but seeing both of them made him feel much more relaxed.

Chloe glanced at the two of them and saw that their bodies still had remnants of fighting. She guessed that they must have fought with the Hawthornes after she left.

"It’s been a long time since I’ve tasted your cooking!" Adam smiled, walked over, and gave Yvette a kiss on her hair.

Yvette said apologetically: "Wait for me to finish these busy days, and I’ll cook delicious food for you every day!"

Chloe and Alex silently sat on both sides, watching them show their affection.

Adam gave Yvette some vegetables and said apologetically to Chloe: "Chloe, I promised before to take our family out together – I’m sorry I broke my promise."

It was mainly because one matter came up after another.

Chloe said: "We can wait for next time."

"We don’t need to wait for later, let’s just go sightseeing around Sheffield City and have a family dinner," Adam said.

Chloe had no objections, as long as Adam had the time.

At this point in Western Europe.

Land of the Prophet.

Len Hawthorne stood in the snowstorm with a cigarette in his mouth, hands in his pockets, and eyes slightly squinted.

There weren’t many people in front of the small square, but there were still a few believers walking around.

Behind him, a red-robed person from the Red Robes Academy jogged over and called out to him, "Mr. Hawthorne."

In the snowstorm, behind the red-robed person from the academy, an even bigger snowstorm rushed towards him.

Len’s body teleported like the edge of a knife, forming infinite power, and split the blow coming at him from the front.

The red-robed person from the academy was also bewildered by the blow that followed closely behind him.

Seeing the red-robed woman standing in the snowstorm, with blonde hair and green eyes, he couldn’t help but take a breath of cold air.

"Miss Tiya Kirk!"

The red-robed person from the academy timely called out to stop the blonde red-robed woman from attacking again.
