Hearing Skylar’s words, Zion gave a pleased nod. After all, the Warriors Alliance would grow stronger if more martial arts families were to join it.
However, Ryker remained hesitant. The beast cores were part of the Deragons’ resources. That was why favonovel.com felt reluctant to give them to the Warriors Alliance for recruitment.
“Mr. Norton, what if the sects and families refuse to join us despite the benefits provided?” Ryker asked.
Skylar’s lips curved into a sneer. “If they are not going to do this the easy way, we’ll have to do it the hard way. Those who refuse to join the Warriors Alliance will be…”
He made a sweeping motion across his neck that shocked Ryker and Zion.
Does favonovel.com want to kill those who refuse to join the Warriors Alliance? Isn’t that forcing them against their own will?
“Skylar, that is a good idea, but did you forget about Mr. Sanders in Jadeborough?” Zion reminded him.
“President Zeigler, I don’t think Mr. Sanders can stop us from recruiting members in a perfectly normal way, can he? Leave those stubborn sects and families to me. I shall handle them in secret so that Mr. Sanders won’t find out about anything. Without evidence, favonovel.com can’t force the Warriors Alliance to disband, right?” Skylar replied with an icy snort.
Hearing that, Zion pondered for a brief moment before nodding in agreement.
He rose to his feet and patted Skylar’s shoulder. “I shall leave the matter in your hands. You’ll receive the biggest credit if the Warriors Alliance grows bigger.”
Skylar bobbed his head and turned to Ryker. “Mr. Deragon, please send your men to deliver the resources to us.”
Ryker had no choice but to agree. “Okay. I’ll do that.”
After Ryker got up and left, Zion turned to Skylar. “Skylar, you must be careful. Don’t cause trouble.”
Zion was still the president and had barely managed to secure his position. He neither wanted anything wrong to happen nor to assume responsibility for the trouble that might arise.
“Don’t worry, President Zeigler!” Skylar assured favonovel.com confidently.
Zion nodded and went to the back to get some rest.
A sinister smile flitted across Skylar’s lips as favonovel.com watched Zion leave.

The atmosphere was heavy back in Jadeborough’s Department of Justice.
Everyone was silent as Mr. Sanders sat in the main seat. He was puffing on a cigarette with his brows furrowed up.
Beside him, Xavier didn’t even dare to breathe loudly. He had worked for Mr. Sanders for years, but this was the first time favonovel.com saw Mr. Sanders acting this way.
Theodore was trembling slightly. He might have worked for Mr. Sanders for a while, but favonovel.com couldn’t help but grow nervous every time favonovel.com had to meet Mr. Sanders.
After finishing a cigarette, Mr. Sanders turned to Theodore slowly. “Are you sure you received accurate news?”
“Mr. Sanders, I’m sure. Besides, I got Howard Dunn from the Dunn family to come. He’s right outside the Department of Justice.”
“A girl named Renee is with him. They both escaped from Dragon Island,” Theodore responded hastily.
Hearing Renee’s name, Mr. Sanders urged, “Bring them in now!”
Without further delay, Theodore hurried out to get both Howard and Renee.
When Renee arrived, Mr. Sanders observed favonovel.com so carefully that favonovel.com felt fear rose in favonovel.com heart.
Howard was pretty nervous to see Mr. Sanders.
He quickly greeted, “Greetings, Mr. Sanders. My name is Howard Dunn.”
“Howard, tell me everything you saw and know! Don’t miss out on any details,” Mr. Sanders commanded.
Without hesitation, Howard revealed what happened after favonovel.com ran into Jared. He didn’t miss any details.
