Chapter 870
Nash reached out into the air and an apple from the fruit tray on the
coffee table flew into his hand. He took a bite and chewed
thoughtfully.
Meanwhile, Hera disclosed the events that happened to the Watsons,
Zells, and Lees to him. The three families had transferred 70% of their
assets. In an attempt to resist Duncan’s dominance, the families’
trusted subordinates shut down all their companies. These three
families controlled 60% of the commerce in Jonford. Once their
companies shut down, it would trigger a butterfly effect, affecting all
industries in Jonford, big and small.
“When did this happen?” Nash inquired.
Nash had considered that Duncan might target the top three families,
but he had not expected the assault to occur before his showdown
with The Swordsman. It was as if Duncan completely disregarded
him.

Nash contacted Eric.
“Nash, you’re out of seclusion?” Eric sounded excited.
“Yes, are you heading to the Sigur Cliff now?” Nash asked.
“Yes, the Duerson family have already gone there. We need to go hold our ground!”
“The Eight-Part Scepter is with you, right?” Nash continued to inquire
“No, it was intercepted,” Eric admitted helplessly/ He then proceeded

to inform Nash about Angelica and Mireille.
When Nash heard that Mireille had gone to the Duerson family to
steal back the scepter, his brows furrowed. “Whose idea was this?”
Going to the Duerson family seemed like walking into the lion’s den.
Eric awkwardly replied, “It was her own. We had no other way of
obtaining scepter otherwise.”
Before Nash could even start pointing fingers, Eric continued, “Quiet
Winds Church did not escape disaster either.”
After taking another firm bite of the apple, Nash asked, “How many
casualties?”
“Except for Cillian and a five-year-old disciple, everyone else perished,
Eric revealed heavily.
Nash did not ask about the reason behind it. At this point, all the
questions would be meaningless.
Seeing Nash silent, Eric spoke again, “We’re almost there; you should
come over quickly!”
With that, he ended the call. Nash put down his phone. He lost appetite for the remaining apple and
casually tossed the half-eat
fruit into the trash bin.
Turning around, Hera hugged Nash’s neck and asked, “Are you goin to fight Swordsman?”
Holding Hera’s soft waist in his arms, he smiled faintly and replied, There will be no peace in Jonford
until we deal with the Duerson
family.”

Hera worried. She had witnessed The Swordsman’s methods and did not want Nash to take such a

Nash tightened his embrace around Hera and smiled, “Are you talking about the National Martial
Bureau?”
At these words, Hera’s eyes dimmed. The National Martial Bureau had recently used her to capture
Nash. They would not likely lend a hand to help him after Nash retaliated.
At that moment, a group of people walked in, they were Skadi, Bianca, Olivia, Helena, Kai, Zakariah,
and Brian.
Hera quickly got out of Nash’s embrace and sat down next to him,
blushing.
“Nash, did you break through to the Mystique Loyalty Realm?” Skadi approached and asked.
Everyone looked at Nash with anticipation. They knew that only Nash could reverse the situation and
save Jonford
Nash nodded with a smile. “Fortunately, I managed to break
Everyone’s expressions relaxed at that.
Nash stood up and said, “I’m going to Sigur Cliff. Stay in Jonfor
don’t go anywhere!”
With that, he walked toward the door.
