The metal gate suddenly opened, and a car with a northern license plate slowly drove out of the mining zone. When Bonan Vozak saw the plate number, his face instantly darkened. Even Hamid clenched his fists instinctively when he saw it. “That is the Mopp family!” His heart pounded heavily. The Mopp family cars always carried a special symbol on their plates. What were such a powerful northern family doing in Cos? Bonan did not say a word, only nodded in greeting. But the car did not even roll down its window and drove away immediately. The powerful northern family did not care about the Vozaks at all. Although Bonan stayed quiet, he turned to look at Hamid, whose face had gone pale. Soon after, another car with a northern plate came out. Hamid’s breathing turned rapid. “That is the Sazz family! What are they doing here?” Hamid thought, his chest tightening as if it were being crushed. Who was supporting Dixon? Why were such powerful northern families visiting Mining Zone 1?

The father and son now knelt before Dixon, their faces pale with fear. “Perhaps this is not the first time the Vozak family has hidden illegal mines for themselves, right?” Dixon’s voice echoed, cold and sharp. The aura he emitted was so terrifying it felt like the angel of death had descended. Bonan and Hamid panicked. “M-Mr. Dixon, I—” “Do you dare deny it?” Dixon squinted his eyes and laughed coldly. “Do you know why that powerful northern family disappeared overnight?” Bonan’s face went completely pale. Of course, he knew the reason. Any major family would commit one or two dirty deeds to rise to power. The Vozak family had been hiding illegal mines for themselves, even establishing connections with foreign powers. They wanted to open trade routes overseas. But now… “Do you know the gravity of the sin you have committed?” Dixon’s voice exploded like thunder in Bonan and Hamid’s ears. Their bodies shook violently. Their faces drained of color, as if their blood had

“Do you think your men can save you?” The leader’s eyes glinted darkly from behind his mask. He knew Dixon was very strong, but today he did not come alone. “No, no…” Dixon shook his head slowly. “They are not here to save me. They are here to kill you. And maybe… after I kill you, the Exalted One will finally dare to show up.” As the words left his mouth, Gobu and Dixon’s other men moved in unison like a pack of hungry wolves. “Attack!” Explosive clashes erupted in the air. Their formation moved swiftly, making the Sect A members turn pale. Individually, Gobu and the others were clearly weaker, but their tactics caught the enemy off guard. “How is this possible?!” one member shouted. “Why can their formation hold us back?!” “You dogs!” Gobu bristled at the insult. “What do you mean by dogs? We are proud to be Mr. Dixon’s dogs!” Their shouts echoed. Dixon stood calmly, taking a fruit from his pocket, wiping it on his sleeve, and biting it as if nothing had happened.

Yoruna did not have many proud moments in her life. But with a son-in-law like Dixon, people even greeted her on the street. All because she was Dixon’s mother-in-law! A notification appeared on Yoruna’s phone. She opened it right away, and her expression darkened when she read a comment on her earlier post. “Isn’t that just fruit from the northwest? Is that really worth bragging about? Yoruna, you are becoming easier to please.” Reading the comment, Yoruna wanted to reply immediately. But even after thinking about her response for a long time, she still could not decide how to put it. She bit her lip, and her cheerful mood instantly disappeared. “She is truly cruel,” Yoruna said sadly. “Just because her daughter married a rich man, does she have to mock me like that?” Dixon was also very wealthy, but Yoruna had no intention of competing in such a petty way. Back in college, Yoruna had been the class beauty, and they had always competed. Now, at the age of fifty, the compar

People spent their lives chasing fame and status, hoping to appear wealthier and more respectable, especially in front of close acquaintances. Everyone wanted to show their best side.At Yoruna’s age, wealth and status were no longer the most important measures. Instead, success was measured by whose children stood out more and who fared better, becoming a never-ending source of pride.After arriving at the hotel, Yoruna asked Diana to help her with her makeup after a short rest, insisting on looking perfect. Women could be very intimidating when competing quietly.Meanwhile, Dixon sat on the outer sofa, turned on the television, and called Witan.“Follow up personally. Find out everything about the foreign powers that have taken hold of the north, and deal with them,” Dixon said calmly. “They may have forgotten what it feels like to make me angry.”When Dixon turned, Yoruna and Diana were already ready to leave. He quickly put down his phone and stood, seemingly captivated by what he
