Chapter 977
As the crowd gathered, someone exclaimed, “Look, the mayor is here!”
“The police department officials are here too.”
“And the heads of the Commerce and Agriculture Departments…”
“What’s happening? It’s so unusual to see all these important figures from the town here.”
Such a scene was extremely rare for the residents of Anchortown. Usually, these people would only gather when
there was a significant event in town. Why were they all coming to Templar Valor today?
“Mr. Harrison…”
When Mr. Harrison walked past Philips Caver, the leader of the Flightstones Gang, he trembled and greeted him.
“Philips, did you get yourself into trouble again? Are you itching to spend some time in the police station? Getting a
dose of morals and law education?”
“Haha, you’ve got it all wrong. I just came to watch a martial arts competition. Look at my hands all wrapped up in
bandages. How could I cause trouble?”
Philips quickly raised his bandaged hands to explain.
The mayor ignored him. From this incident, it was clear that he was indeed a victim. In his heart, he silently thought,
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇt‘Serves him right.’
“Alright, everyone disperse!”
Mr. Harrison walked to the center and issued a loud command.
The people he had brought with him began dispersing the crowd.
Although the onlookers were puzzled about what was going on, the mayor had given his orders. They didn’t dare to
continue gathering and watching.
Emmanuel was also puzzled. Why do none of these things seem logical?
Could it be that he was also here to cause trouble?
“Old Mr. Quillen, we have prepared a feast. Could you please join us for a conversation?”
Once the crowd had dispersed, the mayor approached Terence and spoke with a respectful and humble tone.
“Haha, Harrison, you’ve become the mayor. Congratulations!”
Terence exchanged a few pleasantries with the mayor before agreeing to attend the feast.
Of course, Emmanuel would accompany him. Shane, who had a knack for mooching off his elder brother, would tag
along for a free meal. Not only that, he also intended to bring Red along.
“Emmanuel, can I come along with all of you?”
As they were about to leave Templar Valor, Queenie suddenly spoke up.
Emmanuel turned around and looked at Queenie.

She had her hands behind her back and slightly lowered her head with a shy and gentle demeanor that was
reminiscent of willow branches swaying by the spring riverbank.
“It might not be very convenient, right?”
Emmanuel politely declined. “Alfwhit is injured. Don’t you need to stay here to take care of him?”

Queenie responded directly, “I don’t really like losers, and besides, doesn’t he have plenty of disciples and female
disciples to take care of?”
Upon hearing her words, Emmanuel felt even less fond of her, and he felt a hint of disappointment. The once
charming village belle seemed to have become quite unpleasant.
“Haha, then let’s go together. You haven’t seen Emmanuel in many years; you must have a lot to catch up on,
right?”
Unexpectedly, it was Terence who extended the invitation to her, seemingly unfazed by the possibility of any
conflicts with his son-in-law.
“Well, I do have a lot to talk to him about.” Queenie suddenly wore a beautiful smile. “Thank you, Old Mr. Quillen.”
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmTerence smiled and didn’t say anything further. He, accompanied by Mr. Harrison, got into a black jeep.
On the other hand, Emmanuel drove a Chevrolet with Queenie.
Red watched them get into the cars, pursed her lips, and her gaze was quite complex. In the end, she got into
Shane’s car, needing to return to pick up her grandmother.
Ms. Ruskin watched them depart with their heads held high, feeling quite uneasy.
At this rate, Templar Valor was on the verge of becoming a laughingstock.
However, deep down, she held a peculiar hope. This young man has shown impressive strength. I wonder if he can
penetrate the ugly man’s Golden Bell technique from the previous night.
Despite both of them humiliating Templar Valor, their appearances represent justice. I wish to see him and Blake
have a battle and defeat that hideous villain.
Of course, a standoff where both are heavily wounded will be great.
The Crimson Banner Hotel was the only star-rated hotel in Anchortown.
Compared to the Luxoria Hotel, it certainly had quite a gap, but as the official venue for hosting guests and-
banquets, it had a certain level of elegance.
Mr. Harrison høsted the feast here to welcome Terence, a wealthy businessman who invested 150 million in

Upon arriving at the hotel, Red and her grandmother couldn’t help but be taken aback when they saw the red
banners hanging at the entrance.
