“The Octa Faction?” Marvin exclaimed in amazement.
As a direct descendant of the Campbells, he naturally knew the origins of Lewis’s mastery.
The Octa Faction was a force in Oregon that was not to be belittled.
But the Octa Faction had always laid low and rarely got involved in conflicts or feuds between other families.
“Yes, the Octa Faction!” A strange look appeared in Noah’s eyes as he continued, “Master Lewis is the junior of the faction leader. The leader will definitely not stand by and do nothing if he finds out that his junior was killed by someone from the Peerless Martial a.s.sociation!
“Of course, the Campbells will certainly pay some price if we want to invite this top powerhouse. However, before we achieve our family’s ultimate goal, this is nothing!”
He looked up at his excited son and instructed, “I’ll leave it to you to handle this matter. No matter what, you must invite the leader of the Octa Faction to come over!”
“Yes, Dad. I’ll immediately get someone to prepare some gifts and invite the faction leader, Mr. Alonso, to come over!” Marvin promised with fists in the air and then ran out to make preparations with great enthusiasm.
In San Francisco.
In the middle of San Francisco was a villa cl.u.s.ter that covered an enormous area.
It was the base of the California branch of the Peerless Martial a.s.sociation.
At this moment, in one of the villas, there were several figures sitting upright and looking at the middle-aged man sitting in the master’s seat, waiting respectfully for him to speak.
“Lasked you to come here to inform you of something.” The middle-aged man opened his eyes, looked around at the crowd in the room, and drawled, “Kai is dead!”
“What?!”
Hearing this, the few people present were in disbelief.
“Master York, Kai is favored by you, and he’s very capable. Who here could kill him?” Axel Fox, the head of the California Branch of the Peerless Martial a.s.sociation, said in surprise.
Julian was a senior member of the Peerless Martial a.s.sociation and rarely left DC, but his apprentice Kai was often on various missions outside. Thus, Axel and the others were very familiar with Kai’s strength.
Strictly speaking, Kai was even stronger than Axel.
How did an expert who could almost dominate California suddenly die?
Anger welled up in Julian’s eyes. He narrowed his eyes and said through gritted teeth, “It’s Lucas Gray! I underestimated him, so I sent Kai to test the waters. But Kai ended up getting killed by him!”
His eyes were red, and his fists were clenched.
If Lucas was in front of him right now, he would definitely crush his head!
“It’s really Lucas Gray!” Deep horror appeared in Axel’s eyes.
He had only met Lucas once at the Elite Business Exchange not long ago.
But he had left an unforgettable impression on Axel at the time because of how domineering he seemed to be.
He had been humiliated by Lucas, but he felt that he couldn’t defeat Lucas himself. Thus, he had asked for help from the Peerless Martial a.s.sociation’s headquarters and used Jude’s death to invite Julian, a powerful killing G.o.d, to California.
However, he didn’t expect that Lucas would immediately kill Kai, Julian’s top apprentice!
While being shocked, a trace of joy welled up in Axel’s heart. He felt thankful for choosing not to put on a brave front and confront Lucas himself back then. Otherwise, he would have probably died.
“Lwant you to give me all the information about Lucas Gray. Do not leave out a single detail!” Julian said coldly as he glowered at Axel with a terrifying look on his face.
“Yes, Mr. York!” Axel’s heart skipped a beat as he hurriedly agreed. He immediately sent his subordinates to collate all the information about Lucas.
Sitting in the master seat, Julian was full of fury and regret.
Kai had been his most favored apprentice, and he had intended to have him take over his position in the future. He might even make greater achievements in the Peerless Martial a.s.sociation in the future.
But Kai ended up dying just because Julian had sent him to test Lucas’s true power!
He had to get revenge for him!
“Notify them that the martial arts compet.i.tions that the Peerless Martial a.s.sociation is holding in seven days in California and Oregon will both be changed to the same venue, the San Francisco International Expo Center!
“On October 15th, the Peerless Martial a.s.sociation must completely take down California and Oregon!”
“If you fail, these two branches will no longer have any value or reason to exist! Do you understand?”
Julian exuded a domineering aura that overwhelmed the crowd.
The people present, all of whom were from the California branch of the Peerless Martial a.s.sociation, had a change of drastic expression.
Julian, a top expert of the Peerless Martial a.s.sociation, had the right to decide the affairs of these branches.
If the California branch was really abolished, those who originally belonged to this branch would definitely be rea.s.signed to other local branches, and everything they had worked hard for years to obtain would be gone. They would have to start from scratch!
None of them wanted to encounter that!
Axel hurriedly promised, “Mr. York, we will do our best! The final winner of the tournament will definitely be the Peerless Martial a.s.sociation!”
His a.s.sistant, Heath, and several senior members of the California Branch all spoke up and pledged that they would definitely take control of California and Oregon.
Julian looked at the crowd in front of him, and a dense murderous intent gradually appeared in his eyes. “Lucas Gary, first you killed my brother Jude, and now you killed my apprentice Kai. I’m definitely going to go all out against you for this feud!”
At this moment, Lucas was still sitting in Edmund’s car and making his way back to California from Oregon.
Edmund reported all these events that had happened in the Campbells’ home in Oregon today to Lucas.
“In that case, it was Noah Campbell who took the initiative to propose a bet with you that as long as the experts of both states can defeat Julian from the Peerless Martial a.s.sociation, they will be able to become the overlord of California and Oregon?” Lucas asked with a somewhat strange expression.
Edmund nodded and said with a smile, “That’s right! However, Lewis, whom the Campbells claimed was their top expert, died at the hands of Kai of the Peerless Martial a.s.sociation. And then Kai was killed by you, Mr. Gray. So it’s safe to say that as long as you defeat Julian at compet.i.tion seven days later,
you will become the overlord of both states!”
Zeal and fervor suddenly surged in his chest.
Lucas was surprised.
He didn’t expect that things would actually develop into such a situation so quickly.
Of course, Lucas wasn’t worried about whether he could defeat Julian or not. What he was thinking about now was how much help it would bring to his future plan once he really became the overlord of California and Oregon.
After all, Lucas would deal with the Huttons one day!
