Stephen couldn’t have imagined that Haddon had finished his conversation with Kelvin just a minute before favonovel.com called Haddon.
Although Kelvin held no official position within the administrative system, every high official knew Duncan had executed Ashton. So, the remaining Kelvin was the kingdom’s future ruler. Only based on that, no one dared to disrespect him.
Kelvin had only said one thing to Haddon during their call. Certain forces within the kingdom were too rampant, especially groups like the Black Dragon. They should be dealt with according to the law.
So, while Haddon was pondering how to deal with the Black Dragon, Stephen’s call arrived unexpectedly.
If Haddon didn’t know how to pick between a thug leader and the future lord of the kingdom, favonovel.com wouldn’t be worthy of his position.

When Stephen and his men were being escorted away, Isaac’s private jet had already taken off from Rippan Capital Airport.
Isaac frowned as favonovel.com stared out the window at the sky.
“Don’t worry about troublesome issues. You’ll solve the problems,” Emily said.
She was sitting next to him, seemingly sensing his mood and speaking softly.
Isaac turned to look at favonovel.com and said, “Actually, you can stay in Rippan now. You don’t have to return with me.”
She smiled. “Lord Rebirth has been eliminated. It’s a good time to take a break and relax.”
At this moment, Lucifer walked up to Isaac from behind and asked deeply, “From the way you speak, is there a problem with the secret realm?”
Isaac nodded. “The project has been disrupted. It should be Morgan’s actions.”
“Damn it!” Lucifer couldn’t help but curse.
He was more concerned with rescuing his members than anyone else. Despite his cooperation with Isaac, his purpose was to let his members come out from the underground.
“Don’t worry too much for now. We’ll find out when we get back.” Isaac glanced at Lucifer before closing his eyes.
The plane landed at the Cloud City Airport after 8:00 pm. The convoy quickly drove into Sleeping Dragon Bay.
Connor and a high-ranking commander from the House of Custos were already waiting in the living room. The coffee table held fruits, sweets, and hot tea, but no one had touched them.
When Isaac and his group entered, Connor instantly stood up.
“Let’s go. Let’s discuss it in the study.” Isaac waved and quickly walked into the study.
He lit a cigarette, frowned, and sat down at the desk. The commander in a dark green uniform approached and took out a stack of photos from his briefcase, placing them on the desk
“Isaac, take a look at these first. These are from the reconnaissance team I dispatched near the construction site. All 16 people were killed.”
Connor remained gloomy. “These people are all members of the Special Operations team. Apart from Morgan’s people, no one else could have done this. They were all killed from 2:00 am until dawn in less than three hours.”
Isaac frowned and picked up the photos, the contents of which were horrifying. Following their deaths, all of the Special Forces soldiers were hung on tall trees with ropes.
“These were taken with drones. We dare not send anyone in now.”
Isaac finished looking through the photos, then looked at Connor and asked, “How is the progress now?”
“We’ve already reached two-thirds. Pipeline No. 3 would have been nearly finished if this tragedy hadn’t occurred,” Connor replied.
Isaac calculated in his mind, stood up, and said, “Since that’s the case, we can’t wait any longer. Lucifer, let’s set off.”
“Set off? Where to?” Lucifer looked at Isaac in confusion.
“Hera, go and notify all the guardians to gather at the front courtyard.” Isaac didn’t answer and instead looked at Hera, who was standing at the door.
