“These bad guys attacked and hurt Leon! Capture them all so Leon can deal with them!” Roanneordered angrily.
“Yes!” answered John.
It was always better to take the head of the beast first.
He knew that Charlie was the leader of their opponents, so he quickly launched forward with immensepower, trying to grab Charlie.
“Don’t!”
Charlie was scared stiff. He knew very well that John was too strong. He was far from someone he andthe others could deal with. Moreover, after everything that happened between him and Leon, the latterwould never forgive him if he was captured and handed over to him.
With danger looming, he quickly had a thought as he retreated and hurriedly said, “Sir, wait! I want tosay something!”
“Speak up, then!” John scoffed, stopping his attack for a moment.
After all, he was someone from the older generation, while Charlie was from the younger generation.He could not possibly not give Charlie the chance to speak.
“Sir, this is an internal conflict between the first and second lines of the Scammells‘ direct descendants.It has nothing to do with any outsiders! If you’re going to force your way into this, aren’t you worried it’llruin the reputation of the Thompsons if word gets out?”
Charlie forced himself to remain calm as he spoke, trying to push John back with the Thompsons‘reputation.
“I…”
Stunned, John fell into a brief silence.novelbin
Based on the rules and honor of the martial world, for the sake of maintaining the balance between thevarious ancient martial arts families, they were normally not allowed to interfere with other families‘inner workings.
That was to prevent some larger families from forcibly swallowing up the smaller ones and disruptingthe balance.
The Thompsons were the head of the martial world in the Southern Region. They placed a lot ofimportance on their name and reputation, so they never interfered with other ancient martial artsfamilies.
If he forced his hand into a Scammell affair, then it would end up hurting their reputation!
However, he quickly noticed something wrong with a thought.
“Don’t even think about it, you brat! You Martells are the ones trying to interfere with their internalaffairs. Are we not allowed to dish out justice because of that?” John said with a sneer on his face.
“That…
“Mister Thompson, I won’t hide it from you: I have grudges against Leon. He can be counted as part ofthe Scammells, and I came here to deal with him. I wasn’t planning on interrupting the internal mattersof the Scammells at all!” Charlie twisted the truth shamelessly.
“In the end, I can leave right now if you think what I’m doing is inappropriate. What do you think?”Charlie added, immediately wanting to retreat.
If the Thompsons were going to be involved, he no longer dared to think about helping the second lineof descendants. He immediately made the decision to abandon his chess pieces for the sake of savinghimself.
“I…”
John started to hesitate.
Since Charlie wanted to retreat, he no longer had a reason to continue. It would be inappropriate forhim to not let them go.
However, Leon had saved Roanne before, and the Thompsons owed him a debt.
Furthermore, he saw Anderson injuring Leon with a sneak attack earlier. He would not be happy if helet them off just like that.
