Chapter 552 Paper Tiger
“What do you mean, Mr. Murphy?” Everyone looked confused.
Despite the obvious power of Sky Devourer Palace, he still laughed and claimed there was nothing to
fear.
They thought Regan was so scared that he had lost his mind.
Regan glanced at everyone, his smile fading from his face. He spoke with conviction. Do you really
believe that if Sky Devourer Lord were still alive and knew that Mr. Knight had infiltrated Chanaea, he
would have sent just a single warning?”
Upon hearing those words, everyone shuddered.
His logic made sense to everyone.
Sky Devourer Lord was incredibly domineering. Who would dare to provoke him? If there was even the
slightest disagreement, he would directly arrive at one’s doorstep ready to kill. After all, for Sky
Devourer Lord, such actions were as common as eating a meal.
Yet, Sky Devourer Palace merely sent a warning, which clearly indicated that Sky Devourer Palace had
become nothing more than a paper tiger.
What was there to fear?
Regan continued, “In the future, the world of martial artists will gradually lean toward Anglandur, rather
than centering around Chanaea. Therefore, our decision to join the Deity Slayer Alliance at this time is
indeed the right one. Alex from Anglandur is the new overlord of the martial arts world!”

Regan’s inspiring words stirred up excitement among the numerous members of the Hidden Fighters
Alliance. They couldn’t help but imagine the glorious moments that awaited them after the Hidden
Fighters Alliance joined the Deity Slayer Alliance.
As the saying goes, “One who follows the boss will benefit from them.”
Observing that group of foolish people, Matteo couldn’t help but sigh inwardly. What they were doing
wasn’t just cozying up to the boss, it was more like they were recklessly celebrating on the edge of a
knife, dancing on a stovetop.
Matteo firmly believed they were all going to meet a terrible end.

As the undercurrents of martial artists stirred across the globe, Emrys seemed unconcerned, aloof from
it all, leisurely returning to his old line of work.
He continued to help people with his medical skills.
In Jazona, Minerva, the daughter of the provincial governor, Chandler, had overexerted herself while
stretching and yawning. Suddenly, she couldn’t lower her arm, maintaining an odd posture with it raised
above her head.
That wasn’t even the most embarrassing part. The most embarrassing part was that a good number of
Chandler’s colleagues had come to his house that day.
Everyone was discussing the topic of the fall of the Empyrean Lord. The atmosphere was quite somber.
Suddenly, upon seeing Minerva’s antics, everyone couldn’t help but burst into laughter.
Minerva was greatly embarrassed. Seeing her father, Chandler, also holding back his laughter, she
immediately became angry out of embarrassment and said, “I’m already in such a state, and you can
still laugh. Are you really my father?”
“There, there, watch your words, young lady. If I’m not your real father, then who is?” Chandler had
initially intended to scold her, but upon seeing his daughter’s ridiculous appearance, he couldn’t help
but burst into laughter.
That further infuriated Minerva, who exclaimed, “I think Mr. Balford is even better than you!”
Chandler’s smile froze.
Of course, he knew who Mr. Balford was, the man his daughter often spoke of.
It was Roger.
The relationship between him and Roger was exceptionally good. Back in the day, they had jointly
pursued a senior female student from the calligraphy and painting society. In the end, it was Chandler
who triumphed, successfully winning over the senior student. Moreover, he persisted and eventually
walked down the aisle with her.

Minerva was the daughter he had with his club’s senior, who became his wife.
Given the good relationship between Roger and Chandler, their families interacted quite frequently.
Often during their chats, they would bring up amusing anecdotes from the past to tease each other.

Having heard so much, Minerva naturally came to understand the old affairs among their parents
generation.
Upon witnessing her father’s hearty laughter, Minerva deliberately made a comment, causing an
immediate freeze in the smile on his face.
The nearby colleagues wore expressions of embarrassment, pondering the identity of Mr. Balford.
To alleviate the awkwardness, Chandler discreetly coughed twice and stated, “Mr. Balford and I have
been friends for a long time. It’s only natural for him to show kindness towards you. However, you only
see the surface. You have no idea how strict he can be with his daughter when he returns home.”
With his explanation, Chandler not only clarified their relationship but also alleviated the discomfort.
One of Chandler’s colleagues chuckled and remarked, “Indeed. I usually only scold my own children,
but I could never scold my niece.”
