Living With My Lady Boss by Blue Silver

Chapter 2828

At the Robert family estate, in the courtyard, the family head, Liam Robert, was pacing back and forth, anxiously waiting. Hadirt's death had been so sudden, but it was the result of his excessive arrogance.

In truth, Liam had long known that a battle among the nine great families was inevitable. He just had not expected Hadirt to meet his end so soon. Although Liam had always been compliant with the other eight families, the ambition for power and fame among them had long been uncontrollable.

Under such circumstances, it was remarkable that the Robert family had managed to hold on. Six of the nine families had already been wiped out, leaving only the Warren, Andrew, and Robert families.

Liam did not care for fame or power. He had even once offered to hand over the Robert family's honors to the Warren family. However, this offer had been rejected, and the Warren family had insisted on sending two talisman cultivators to challenge the Robert family's dragon clan cultivator.

According to the rules established by the nine families, while battles between families were allowed, the families themselves were not to be harmed until all their cultivators had been killed.

This time, taking advantage of Layton's injury, the Warren family had sent two talisman cultivators to challenge him. The intent was clear, they wanted not only to kill Layton but also to destroy the Robert family.
