Capítulo 1366: The Family Head Cole Lark

From MC’s Perspective

Dry-Summit City – Front View Hotel

The Purple Mark Guard had noticed the old woman earlier. Everything was going according to his plan.

“Don’t worry. I have been watching everything. Just do what you did in Red Ridge City.” After saying that, the Purple Mark Guard left the place.

Then, I collected my thoughts, walked up to the big open window, and closed it.

After doing that, I went back to bed to sleep. I didn’t know what was going to happen next. But the dangers in this city were greater than in Red Ridge City.

…

Meanwhile,

The Council Elders’ faces did not look good. On the way, they couldn’t help but discuss the aftermath.

From time to time, they looked at Council Elder Rebecca Lark. She was the one who had asked a question to Zack Lockwood earlier.

Everyone knew her Lark family had close ties with the Klein Family. It was not a hidden secret that the Klein Family was against Zack Lockwood.

Zack Lockwood had killed one of their descendants during the competition. They didn’t imagine things would come this far.

“Rebecca, we don’t want anything to happen to Zack Lockwood as long as he stays here,” one of the old men said.

His family had the major stake in the Front View Hotel, so he was more worried about the current situation.

If something happened to the hotel, then their family losses would be great. So, he didn’t want others to scheme against Zack Lockwood using the hotel.

Rebecca’s old eyes flickered.

She said, “My family is one of the stakeholders. So, we won’t do anything to harm the council’s interest.”

Hearing that, the elders put their hearts at ease. Soon, the ten Council Elders returned to their families to report. They didn’t go to the council building because this matter was urgent to report.

Old woman Rebecca returned to her family as well.

…

Lark Family

They were one of the warrior families in Dry-Summit City. The Family Head was a Purple Mark Warrior. Rebecca was part of the family elders as well.

She quickly gained an audience with the Family Head and reported the news to him. The Family Head’s name was Cole Lark.

Family Head Cole’s expression was calm until he heard the name Zack Lockwood. He immediately thought of the Klein Family.

His expression turned ugly. He was sure that the Klein Family would contact them soon.

“Why has the plague come here?” Cole uttered.

“Family Head, the Klein Family has been following the movements of Zack Lockwood. But they were reluctant to take action.”

“This time, they might ask us to help them,” Rebecca said.

Cole’s eyes flashed with a glint.

He was more afraid of Zack Lockwood’s background.

Not only did that young man have the support of Lightning Elder Austin, but the kid also had the entire support of the Thunderflame Faction.

He was also hearing rumors that Dean Jerome was supporting the kid as well.

Any one of them could be harmful to the Lark Family. He didn’t want to offend Zack Lockwood right now.

He then turned towards the Elder.

“If anyone contacts you, avoid them. Tell the other elders as well. Until I say so, no one should make contact,” Cole said in a cold tone.

Hearing that, Rebecca understood. She then left the place.

Star University

Dean’s Office

Dean Jerome was reading the reports. He got the latest report from the Purple Mark Guard. He had read through the information about what happened in Red Ridge City.

The Purple Mark Guard had already handed over the criminals. They were locked up in the prison cells. The elders were interrogating them.

He also knew about Zack Lockwood’s combat strength. He was pleased to know that Zack Lockwood was able to do the cross-kill again.

He thought that if Zack Lockwood’s strength reached the peak, he could even hurt a Purple Mark Warrior.

Jerome thought it would be a matter of time before he got the interrogation reports in his hand.

He then shifted his attention and started going through the latest report sent by the Purple Mark Guard.

A few minutes later, his eyes flashed with a glint. He had to say that the Purple Mark Guard was assisting him. Dry-Summit City was one of the dens as well.

He knew some of the families were connected to the Klein Family. So, if the Klein Family were to take action against Zack Lockwood, then they were going to fall into the trap.

He hoped that they would have a similar catch as well.

…

Thunderflame Faction

The Following Day

The Main Elders had gathered here for the daily meeting. Faction Leader Clifford was seated at the main chair.

The Main Elders were seated at their places.

Faction Leader Clifford couldn’t help but speak about Zack Lockwood.

“Have you guys heard about Red Ridge City?” he asked.

Hearing that, the Main Elders were taken aback. Main Elder Austin and Ann were in deep thought. They had other disciples as well, but Zack Lockwood was someone causing more worry to them.

Austin said, “I have collected information. It appears Zack Lockwood faced some attacks inside the hotel.”

Ann’s eyes flickered. She said, “I heard that there were Gold Mark Warriors involved in the attack.”

Cathy, Leola, and Rosie had been getting some intel as well. They started sharing the news too.

Faction Leader Clifford heard everyone’s words.

He said, “I think the Purple Mark Guard is protecting him. So, no one can touch him. But the people behind the attacks will face the consequences.”

Hearing that, the elders sighed in relief. Everyone believed that the Purple Mark Guard killed all those attackers.

But they didn’t know it was Zack Lockwood who had killed them. If they learned the truth, they would be shocked to the core.

Austin was in deep thought again. He could tell Dean Jerome was using Zack Lockwood to punish the criminals.

But these actions would further anger those families. They might take action against Zack Lockwood later.

He couldn’t say anything now. He could only hope that Zack Lockwood would become stronger to take care of the problem.
