Rhett’s body was immediately drenched in a clammy sweat, his breath

coming in rapid, shallow bursts. The tension in the air was palpable.

A chilling roar, reminiscent of a dragon’s mighty bellow, echoed through the

chaos, piercing the cacophony of their fierce combat. This formidable sound

had reached Emmanuel, who, with a swift and decisive movement,

employed his Dragon Hold Technique from a distance. The forceful

interruption caused Envoy Aora’s attack to veer off course, diverting its

deadly path.

“Impossible!” Envoy Aora’s voice cracked with disbelief. Despite their thorough

investigation into Emmanuel, the rapid and unexpected surge in his power

was beyond their wildest imaginations.

Unperturbed by Aora’s astonishment, Emmanuel pressed forward with

relentless determination. He unleashed a powerful Military Boxing technique,

his intent clear–to incapacitate Envoy Aora severely. The revelation of this top–tier master’s connection to the Quillen family massacre fueled

Emmanuel’s resolve. Capturing Aora would bring him closer to uncovering

the truth he so desperately sought.

Envoy Aora, still reeling from the shock, barely managed to evade

Emmanuel’s devastating punch, but could not avoid the lightning–fast palm

strike that struck the side of their face. Though the impact was not severe,

the sting of humiliation was profound.

As Envoy Aora struggled, three additional top–tier masters emerged from the

shadows, encircling Emmanuel. Each of these elite warriors could have easily

claimed a top spot in any martial arts competition, their presence a

testament to their formidable skill.

Yet, Emmanuel remained undaunted. Even with three opponents closing in,

he held his ground with fierce defiance, pushing them back with unwavering

strength.

“Retreat! We must retreat immediately!” Envoy Aora’s voice trembled with

urgency. They had initially believed that taking down the so–called

Grandmaster of Nuthana would be a simple task. However, the unforeseen

presence of Rhett on Emmanuel’s side, coupled with Emmanuel’s drastically

enhanced strength, had thrown their plans into disarray. Even with their

combined might, the odds of overcoming Emmanuel were slim.

The only viable course of action was to withdraw.

“Think you can escape so easily? Not a chance!” Emmanuel’s eyes burned

with a fierce, unyielding resolve as he prepared to pursue them. But before

he could advance, one of the cloaked adversaries scattered a cloud of

noxious yellow powder into the air. The toxic substance quickly clouded the

surroundings, adding a sinister layer to the retreat.

Simultaneously, the remaining two masters unleashed a barrage of hidden weapons, forcing Emmanuel to retreat to avoid the onslaught.

“Ah, Emmanuel, you’ve done well. But remember, one day I’ll face you in a true

one–on–one battle!” Envoy Aora’s voice, laced with bravado, rang out even as

they made their cowardly exit.

During the retreat, a voice called out from behind, breaking through the

tumultuous atmosphere. “Emmanuel!”

Mackenzie’s voice carried across the battlefield, cutting through the clamor

linked with Teddy as well. It’s challenging to be certain, but if I encounter the

same type of weaponry used to demolish the Quillen residence, I’ll be able to

identify them,” came Emmanuel’s comment.

Her words were punctuated by a sigh, reflecting her growing concern. “The

third faction must be the Verkade family, correct?”

His sigh mirrored hers, his expression darkening with regret. “Indeed. When

Gautier sought refuge, I should have shown no mercy.”

At that moment, Lexi added her piece to the puzzle. “Ms. Quillen, after both

you and Old Mr. Quillen vanished, the presidency of the Nuthana Chamber of

Commerce remained unfilled. I’ve heard that William, the second–largest

shareholder of Terence Group, is now attempting to seize the position.”

Emmanuel’s fists clenched in anger upon hearing this revelation. “Gautier’s

betrayal is evident! The Verkade family has conspired with Teddy, aiming to supplant the Quillen family. Gautier was their insider.”

Mackenzie’s expression hardened as she absorbed this troubling news. Their

suspicions about Gautier had long simmered, but the scale of the disaster

was beyond their worst fears.

Lexi’s next statement added another layer of complexity. “Following the

Quillen family massacre, Gautier also vanished. Everything has since been

managed by William and his close associates.”

Mackenzie’s eyes widened in disbelief. “He vanished?”

The sheer volume of revelations was overwhelming, leaving Mackenzie

struggling to piece together the intricate web of deceit and betrayal in such

a short period. The confusion and urgency of the situation threatened to

engulf them all.
