Lily’s heart skipped a beat.

Lily feigned shock, covering her mouth. “That’s terrifying, Auntie!”

Audrey sighed and shook her head. “Looks like he escaped again. Alright, Lily, you and the others need to come with me. We need a statement from all of you.”

“Okay.”

Lily nodded.

But Anthony turned to Audrey with a frown. “Nothing happened here. Why should we go give a statement?”

Audrey’s expression darkened. “We need witness testimony to aid the investigation.”

“Well, I can’t help you with that.”

Anthony turned and started walking away.

“Stop right there!”

Audrey barked, clearly irritated by his attitude.

She nodded.Anthony then pulled out the jade pendant his mother had given him and held it up."Second, study the design of this pendant. I want you to find out if there's another one like it in this world."He suspected it was linked to the Southern King.He knew Jasmine Kirk’s family owned one too, but he needed to know if there were more out there.He had studied this pendant for a long time, but it remained a mystery."The last task isn’t urgent," he added. "Investigate the truth behind the extermination of the Jones and Kirk families. I want the real culprit."Antho

    "Ah!—"Sebastian screamed in agony, clutching his ears as he collapsed to the ground."Mr. Wallace, quick, kill him!" he howled in excruciating pain."Got it!"The burly man furrowed his brow and stepped forward, swinging a fierce punch straight at Anthony's face.The force behind the punch was immense—strong enough to pierce through steel."Die, punk!"He showed no mercy, throwing his fist with brutal speed and intensity.Yet Anthony stood perfectly still, not even flinching.In the next instant, Mr. Wallace's arm twisted at a grotesque angle—bones snapping with a sickening sound.No warning."Urgh—!"The man screamed in shock and pain, his face contorting."Ah!

To have someone like that to rely on… it would be a kind of happiness she'd never known.Anthony led Melanie Oakley away from the Osborne estate.By the time they returned to the Heavenly Dojo, she had half a mind to ask him to stay.

    “You bastard, watch your mouth—or I’ll kill that woman,” Caleb Osborne snarled coldly.But the moment those words left his mouth, a shadow flashed toward him, moving with the force of a gale.“Watch out!”Max Osborne immediately sensed something was wrong and tried to warn him, but it was already too late.“Aaaargh!”Caleb let out a wretched scream as his body was sent flying across the room, crashing hard onto the floor. He curled up in agony, feeling as if his intestines had been torn apart.“You insolent brat!”Max Osborne hadn’t expected Anthony to strike so suddenly—and right in front of him, no less. His son had been injured before he could even react. How could he not be enraged?More importantly, they had the hostage.

Learning his identity or whereabouts is almost impossible.”Hearing this, Anthony understood—he was telling the truth.No one could lie in front of him.And if Franklin Fisher had taken any part in the massacre of the Jones family back then, he would not have walked out alive today.So far, it appeared Franklin Fisher hadn't been involved.Anthony raised a brow as he looked at Franklin Fisher and said, “Mayor Fisher, I assume you’ve already figured out who I am, haven’t you? So, what are your thoughts now?”At those words, Franklin Fisher immediately responded, “Mr. Jones, all I know is that you saved my daughter. As for everything else—I know nothing!”He was a smart man—he wouldn’t have made it this far otherwise.Anthony stood up and said, “Alright, it’s time for me to go.”Franklin Fisher didn’t dare say a
