Chapter 627: Chapter 627 We admit defeat, both convinced and compliant!_1
Elise Parry glanced at the unconscious Emilio Compton, her eyes showing a trace of sympathy.
She knew very well that Emilio Compton would first be exploited, teaching Carson Flores everything he knew, before being killed by Carson Flores.
Compared to the dead Nikolai Jimenez, Emilio Compton, who was soon to become nothing more than a tool and still could not escape death, she felt standing here now seemed like a stroke of luck.
There are many choices in life, and as Carson Flores said, she undoubtedly made the right choice.
"You killed both of them, the Eastern Peak Sanctuary of the Sacred Mountain and the Northern Range won’t let this go easily, be careful yourself," she said.
Carson Flores was slightly surprised, he didn’t expect Elise Parry to actually be kind enough to remind him.
Elise Parry flashed a charming smile, "Although we are all cultivators from the Blessed Land of Cave Heavens, our sects are different, and we have no relations. Their deaths don’t sadden me, and although I did think about killing you and taking the Water-Fire Mirror, you are so strong and have let bygones be bygones, I truly admire you for that."
Carson Flores smiled and said, "I am completely in the dark about the Blessed Land of Cave Heavens and cultivators, Miss Parry, if you don’t mind, could you enlighten me?"
Elise Parry pointed her chin towards Emilio Compton, "Isn’t he here to tell you everything?"
Carson Flores smiled, "What he says can only be believed with caution, but what you say, naturally, is different."
"And you can cross-reference both sides, right?"
Elise Parry smiled, "Fine, since I can’t beat you anyway, I’ll stick around for half a day. You can ask me anything you want to know, and I’ll tell you whatever I can."
"Thank you, I need to deal with some other matters first," he said.
Elise Parry waved her hand, "As you wish, pretend I’m not here."
Carson Flores turned around, his gaze falling on Hank Hoffman’s face, and Hank Hoffman’s old face immediately turned pale.
"I’ll call them right now to release the Frost Family members," he said.
Without waiting for Carson Flores to speak, Hank Hoffman surrendered immediately, took out his phone, and quickly dialed a number.
"Uncle, release all of the Frost Family members... Yes, all of them... Be polite, remember, be polite... Don’t ask, I’ll explain when I get back."
After hanging up, Hank Hoffman’s face bore an unpleasant, almost tearful smile, "Mr. Flores..."
Carson Flores chuckled, "As easy as capture and release?"
Hank Hoffman instantly understood, Carson Flores was planning to make a demand of him.
"Mr. Flores, the Hoffman Family admits defeat. Whatever you say goes, however you want us to compensate, we will comply wholeheartedly!" he said.
Carson Flores smiled, "It’s a pity I’m not in West Capital at the moment, otherwise, wiping out all your Innate and Innate Grandmasters of the Hoffman Family would have been more secure. But since you’ve surrendered so readily, it would seem somewhat unkind of me to act further..."
Hank Hoffman was terrified, yet at the same time, secretly relieved.
Fortunately, not everyone had come, and fortunately, Carson Flores had not returned to West Capital. Otherwise, as was Carson Flores’s wont, he would have definitely killed all the Innate and Great Grandmasters, even Grandmasters, before negotiating a stop.
The Hoffman Family had suffered a severe blow now, with several powerful Innate Grandmasters dead, but at least there were still many Innates left. As long as they were there, the Hoffman Family wouldn’t collapse.
If the Hoffman Family fell, given their overbearing behavior over the years, they had accumulated quite a few enemies who would definitely be willing to kick them while they were down, and it would then be questionable whether the Hoffman Family could even stay in existence, let alone withdraw from the cultivation world.
Carson Flores chuckled, "A list will be sent to your Hoffman Family later. Don’t try to negotiate the terms, otherwise, I’ll have to visit personally to discuss it with you."
Hank Hoffman hurriedly agreed, "Yes, it shall be done. Mr. Flores, as long as you spare our Hoffman Family, we will follow your lead."
Carson Flores nodded and walked a few steps away, then stopped and turned back, "You’ve pampered your grandson a bit too much—I find it very displeasing..."
A chill ran through Hank Hoffman who replied without hesitation, "I will discipline him myself when I get back."
Carson Flores smiled and approached Leah Frost, giving her a slight smile, "Aunt Leah, it’s over."
Leah Frost looked at the smiling Carson Flores with a complex expression, filled with pride and heartache.
Pride that he had become so powerful, heartache that he was entangled with such a great force.
"In my memory, your father was a man of great excellence, but you surpass even your father," she said.
Carson Flores laughed gently, "The blue is made out of the indigo but is more vivid than it, that’s the natural order of things. It wouldn’t be right if each generation didn’t surpass the last."
Leah Frost stepped forward and embraced Carson Flores, silent for a long moment.
Carson Flores gently patted her back and chuckled, "Don’t worry, it’s not a big problem."
Leah Frost pulled back, gazing at Carson Flores. She suddenly laughed, "You’ve grown into a man. No wonder both Little Xi and Mary Jimenez find it so hard to let go of you. Don’t worry about us, you were not at fault in this matter to begin with. Go do what you must."
Carson Flores hummed in agreement, let go of Leah Frost, and turned to Kaenu Hail, "Mr. Hail, thank you. I owe you a favor."
Kaenu Hail’s face broke into a smile, "It was nothing, no need to mention it. The last time I saw you, even Gunner Tate couldn’t match you, and now you can kill Seth Hoffman with a single punch. You are unrivaled in strength, I’m not your equal!"
