The Ex-Husband’s Revenge By Dragonsky Chapter 1280
“Stop! Who are you? This is a private residence, and no outsiders are allowed!” the guards snarled at Leon and Iris
as they puffed their chests out proudly.
They had a perfect reason to be proud–Sky County was a far more advanced city that surpassed both Springfield
City and Seacove City in all aspects, including economics and geographical location. Any family that could land on
their feet and build their empire here in Sky County possessed immense power–at the Basic Power class, at the
least.
Since the methods belonging to the Ultimate Progressive class were not fast enough, one could usually only acquire
the Intermediate Overlord State and rarely reached the Advanced Overlord State, but this was not the same for the

State!
This meant that all the major families in Sky County possessed at least one member at the Emperor State, and
sometimes, more than one, with countless others at the Intermediate Overlord State or higher!
One could only imagine just how powerful the Scammells were, and not even any of the major families in
Springfield City were any match for them!
“My name’s Iris Young, and I come from Springfield City. I’ve come here to visit Grandpa and my uncle,” Iris
explained when the guards stopped her. This was her first time ever coming to visit the relatives on her maternal
side, and thus she could not help feeling a little nervous at this. Thankfully, she had Leon by her side, and his
presence soothed her greatly.
“You’re our master’s granddaughter? What a joke! We know all of the Scammells‘ extended relatives, yet none of
us have ever seen you before,” the guards gave Iris a once–over and even after racking their brains for memories
of her, could not seem to recognize her at all. When they saw how anxious she appeared, however, they could not
help becoming even more suspicious of her.
“Well, my mother, Priscilla, is the second daughter of the Scammells, and she married off to Springfield City more
than two decades ago,” Iris tried to explain.

“What? The second daughter of the Scammells? There’s no such person! Even if you want to trick us, would’ve
expected you to know a little bit about the Scammells family history!” the guards scoffed at this. They were all
distant descendants of the Scammells, not even the collaterals, and were only in their mid- twenties. Priscilla
already left for Springfield City when they were born, so of course, none of them ever
heard of her before!

not try to threaten them any further and instead tried to chase them away.
Seeing that he and Iris were being treated like crooks, Leon stepped forward and said earnestly, “My friends, we’ve
indeed come to visit Iris’s relatives. We’re not trying to impersonate anyone, but if you don’t believe me, you can
notify your masters, and you can find out soon enough whether we’re lying or not.”
“Um,” the guards exchanged dubious glances. They thought Leon’s request was reasonable, considering if they
were truly crooks, it would be too risky for them to impersonate the Scammells‘ relatives.
However, Elder Scammell was far too busy with his daily affairs to be distracted by minor issues like this. They were
the lowliest of guards, and none of them dared to interrupt his work at the expense of being
punished if Leon and Iris turned out to be tricksters!
