Chapter 4746
"Besides...
"You just crippled Jakai! Actually, I'd applaud you if you kill him!
"That old fox had been doing whatever he pleases because of his status as an outer elder, and the number of
disciples he has.
"Not only did he let his daughter marry an Islander, but he even turned his back on the country for them.
"The sacred martial arts training grounds find him utterly shameful.
"If it weren't for all those stupid rules we have, I would've crippled him myself already!"
Quill didn't have a good impression of Jakai at all. He chuckled coldly, as if the situation didn't matter to him.
"I should be thanking you instead.

"There are too many Islanders here. There are a lot of benefits to side with them, too.
That was why Jakai planned to support the Island Nations using the Golden Sands's Heaven's Gate branch.
"Simply put, I would've been killed if you didn't cripple him!
"Judging from this, I owe you!"
Harvey froze, then smiled. "My ego will skyrocket if you keep talking like that, Quill."
"Then so be it. This is your achievement."
Quill quickly gulped the liquor down, then smacked his lips.
"Your analysis was correct, too.
"That bastard has been doing heinous things to people at large for the Islanders.
"He has many enemies in the underworld, too.
"He had a high status and was a skillful fighter. That was why many people wouldn't dare cross him!
"But I've just sent word about his sorry state.
We'll see if he gets to escape the city alive this time!"
Harvey was impressed by Quill's decisiveness.
"You're at the helm of the Golden Sands's Heaven's Gate branch, Quill. We'll both be suspects of what happened to
Jakai.
"You should get someone to send him out of here as soon as possible.
"His death wouldn't matter to us after that."
Quill froze, then burst out laughing. "I almost forgot about that! Thank you for reminding me, Harvey. I'll do that
tomorrow."
Harvey chuckled, then quickly changed the subject.

"It doesn't matter if Jakai's a traitor or not, since he's still the outer elder.
"Me crippling him is an act of disrespect towards the sacred martial arts training ground.
"More importantly, I forced him to submit with the badge."
Harvey revealed an apologetic expression."
The inner circle would probably give you a lot of pressure for this. I'll..."
"What are you saying?"
Quill patted Harvey's shoulder.
"The badge is given to the Gibson family, so we have authority on par with the head.
"If we don't use it at such a crucial time, are we supposed to wait until we're dead or something?
"It may seem like a serious situation, but this is something we had to do.
"Honestly, I might've been more ruthless than you."
