Chapter 79

1121 Words
When the others saw this scene, they were so scared that they didn't dare to move. They were afraid of drawing Jack's attention at this moment! "Sir, how should we deal with these people?" Drake asked. Jack glanced at them coldly and said, "Let them spend the rest of their lives in prison!" After saying that, he picked up Lily and turned to leave. The killers who came here tonight were all fugitives with murder cases and could be killed. The only thing Jack couldn't accept was Lily's current condition. Just as he was about to leave, the female general of the Phoenix suddenly stepped forward and said, "Sir, this girl can still be saved!" "What did you say?!" Jack revealed an expression of disbelief as he stared fixedly at the female general. The female general said, "Sir, my family has been involved in the medical industry since I was a child. I have learned a lot of medical skills. This girl's condition should be due to brain nerve damage." "Then how can we wake her up?" Jack took a deep breath and forced himself to calm down. After a moment of silence, the female general said, "Sir, you know there are some big families with magical inheritances in the world, right?" Jack nodded. After becoming General Steele, his vision had expanded. For example, the Shaw family was a wealthy family. In his eyes, it was a joke. There were many ancient families with magical inheritances scattered across the Federation. They generally didn't operate publicly, but they had enormous abilities! The female general continued, "As far as I know, there is an ancient healing family in Wyndcrest. I heard that they can cure many terminal illnesses. So Miss Carter can also be saved. It depends on whether they are willing or not." "I'll definitely make them willing!" Jack became determined and strode away with Lily in his arms. After one night, there was already violent turmoil at the Shaw family villa. "What did you say, Zachary... is dead?!" Jordan widened his eyes and asked in disbelief. "Yes, yes!" The butler was so scared that his face turned pale, but he still said, "To deal with Jack, Young Master and the others gathered thousands of thugs to kill him. Unexpectedly, there were two armies fighting secretly there. When they saw that all the people were armed, they thought they were foreigners sneaking in from the border, so they killed them all!" After listening to the report, Jordan suddenly fell into a chair with a pale face. In just one month, he had lost two grandsons and one granddaughter. This kind of blow was unbearable for anyone! "Where are the Steele family?" Jordan asked again. "Henry and Jerry were also killed last night. As for Spike and Edward, they were found hanging in the ancestral hall of the Steele family. Maybe they chose to hang themselves because they were too grief-stricken over their son's death." The butler reported truthfully. "Humph, it's impossible for Edward, a selfish old man, to hang himself. Even if he did, why would Spike follow him?" Jordan said with a cold light in his eyes, "Find out the truth. What happened last night was definitely not that simple. I must uncover the truth and avenge my grandson and granddaughter!" "Yes!" The butler immediately replied. In the underground casino in Wyndcrest, the mysterious young master was listening to his men report what had happened the previous night. He sneered, and his eyes were cold. "How could it be so coincidental that there were two teams fighting nearby last night? Moreover, Wyndcrest is still two states away from the Summeria border. How could foreign personnel come to Wyndcrest? How could anyone believe such a flimsy excuse?" The subordinate immediately lowered his head, not daring to speak rashly. "But in this way, this guy named Jack intrigues me more." The young master pursed his lips and smiled. "Lucky, I remember that your master has come out of seclusion and is about to arrive in Wyndcrest, isn't he?" "Yes," the black-robed man, who was seriously injured by a stone thrown by Jack, confirmed. "Then have him wait at the foot of Shine Mountain. If Jack wants to save Lily, he will definitely seek help from the Icarus family. It's time for your master to make an appearance!" The mysterious young master ordered. "Understood," Lucky said in a deep voice. At the same time, a doctor in a private hospital had treated Lily's wounds but couldn't wake her up. "Jack, are you all right?" Emily rushed in from outside. Seeing that Jack was unhurt, she breathed a sigh of relief. Jack didn't say anything; he just hugged Emily tightly. "I know everything about Lily," Emily said after a long pause. Jack released her and smiled apologetically. "I'm sorry. I should have cut off all ties with her earlier. It's all my fault!" "It's not your fault," Emily shook her head, her gaze shifting to the unconscious Lily on the bed with a complicated look. "Women are very resilient. Once they fall in love, they don't give up easily. I see my own reflection in her. During the eight years you were away, I relied on my feelings for you to get through." Jack remained silent. He didn't fully understand women's thoughts. He had believed that if he treated Lily coldly, she would eventually give up. But now, he realized he had underestimated the situation. "Jack, do as you see fit. I'll support you!" As Jack hesitated, Emily firmly held his hand. Jack was taken aback but then smiled with relief. At that moment, Drake quickly walked in. "Sir, Miss Foster," he greeted, then continued, "I've found out that the Icarus family has a compound with an ancient healing technique. They are currently hidden on Shine Mountain in the suburbs." "I see," Jack responded. "Sir, then you..." Drake implied that it would be easier for Jack to seek help as General Steele. "No need. I can handle it myself," Jack said, getting up to leave. Suddenly, the door to the ward was pushed open by a group of people. The Carter family burst in. "Lily, how are you?" Arthur Carter, the patriarch, spoke with his eyes red. When Arthur saw Lily lying on the bed, her face pale and head wrapped in gauze, his legs gave way, and he nearly collapsed. The rest of the family stood stunned, not knowing what Lily had done the previous night. They understood, however, that this brave girl had acted alone to confront the Shaw and Steele families to avoid involving her own family. Arthur grabbed Jack by the collar and roared, "Jack, what the hell is going on?!!"
