The Guardian's Sword

Chapter 2569

"Haha, even you're here. Why can't I be here?" Crystal asked with a sneer after
glancing at Max.

She did not mention Darkness's attack on her aunt's ashes, and there was no
point in bringing it up with Max now. She would wait until she returned to
Janestown to report to the Yorker family, and the Yorker family would discuss the
matter with the Lake family in Janestown.

Fabian's wife was the daughter of the previous patriarch of the Yorker family and
the sister of the current patriarch. With such a status, the Lake family in
Janestown could not afford to go after her even if she was dead.

Since they had the nerve to go after her ashes, they would have to be prepared
to bear the Yorker family's wrath.

"Yes, of course you can! The world is so big that you can go anywhere you want,
Ms. Yorker!" Max said immediately as he dared not retort.

Crystal snorted coldly and said nothing.

Max was unsure about Sean's relationship with Crystal, so he was at a loss.
After a moment of reflection, Max looked at Sean and said. "Sean, Don is one of
the Lake family's guards and one of Sky Sect's seven elders. You killed Don, so
you have to give the Lake family and Sky Sect an explanation. »

Sean raised his eyebrows and replied with a chuckle, "l wonder what the Lake
family and Sky Sect want me to say."

"There's a saying, 'An eye for an eye’, right?" Max asked coldly.

With Crystal watching, he dared not go too far. otherwise, he would have asked
Sean to break his own limbs and brought him back to the Sky Sect to be
punished.

Before Sean could speak again, Crystal had already said,’ Haha, the Lake family
is so arrogant. How dare you ask my teacher to pay with his life just because he
killed the Lake family's guard? Regardless of whether this old man was strong or
not, Mr. Lennon was skilled enough to kill your guard. What can the Lake family
do even if he kills the second heir of the Lake family?"

Max's expression instantly changed when he heard Crystal call Sean her teacher.
“Sean is Crystal's teacher? How is that possible? With the Lake family's
intelligence network, how could we not know anything of this magnitude? If Sean
is Crystal's teacher, the Lake family won't bother Sean when he has the Yorker
family as backup.’

Kennedy and Curtis turned gloomy when they watched Max so respectful to
Crystal. Max was their last and best backup. If Max could not even overpower the
young woman and Sean, the only thing left for Kennedy and Curtis was to exit
Ocean City.

"Ms. Yorker, y-you said he's your teacher?" Max asked, his voice shaking as he
looked at Crystal.

Crystal glanced at him and answered coldly, "Of course! If I ever find out that the
Lake family bothers Mr. Lennon again, you better consider whether the Lake
family can withstand the Yorker family's wrath!"

Max seemed to think of something that frightened him, and his body trembled
uncontrollably.

Sean knew he could call it a day when he saw their reaction.

When facing the Yorker family of Janestown, Max would not disobey Crystal no
matter how daring he was.
