Julian nodded blindly. Although he didn't really understand what Connor meant, he dropped to his knees nonetheless. “Yes, yes.”

After paying their respects, Connor remarked, “Julian, have you found a lead after I ordered you to locate Zeke?”

Julian replied, “Father, I have deployed all our men to search for Zeke in the deep waters he fell into. However, there is no trace of Zeke and the four Ultimate Class masters. Perhaps they have met their end after being devoured by the giant fishes in the river. However, don't you worry. I already have Zeke's wife and daughter in my custody. As long as he is still alive, he will come looking for them. Therefore, he will not be able to escape from our grasp.”

Connor nodded in approval. “Mmm-hmm. That's a great idea. To ensure that everything goes smoothly, you have to be personally responsible for it.”

Julian replied, “I will do my best.”

With that, Connor left.

Watching Connor's silhouette go, Julian was filled with mixed emotions.

Zeke's wife, Lacey, was Ares' own daughter. When Ares was reunited with her, he cherished her as if she meant the world to him.


In fact, he spoiled her so much that he made her the head of the Thisleton family.

It has been only a short time, yet he starts to tighten the noose on her. Father's attitude seemed to have changed drastically. It's as if he is a different person.

That wasn't the first time Julian suspected that this Ares was an impostor.

However, he wasn't prepared to dig any deeper.

It doesn't matter if he is the real one or not. After all, he regards me highly and has helped me to become the head of the Thisleton family. In fact, he even trained me into a King Class warrior. So what if he is an impostor? All that matters is that he is on my side.

However, Julian was still worried about Lacey whom he saw as a threat.

If my suspicions are correct, this Ares must be a fake. What will happen when the real one comes back and supports Lacey to challenge me for my position as the head of the Thisleton family?

Therefore, he decided to pre-emptively dispose of his enemy.

Taking out his phone, he ordered, “Tell the men to make sure Lacey doesn't survive the night. Also, clean up your tracks so that it doesn't lead back to me.”

“Understood!”

After the order was cascaded down through four or five layers, it finally reached the ears of one called Hound.

Hound was a bully who was in charge of a particular pedestrian street.

It was the same street where Lacey and Missy were living on.
