Triumph Above All novel

Chapter 449

Meanwhile at Troiz county.

Parker Jenkins’ murder had stirred up quite the uproar in Troiz county. Every influential person in the

county was in a frenzy when they heard the news about his murder. Plenty of powerhouses were

gathered in a private estate in a secluded area at that moment.

“Does anyone know who exactly killed Parker?” A man with a head of white hair asked.

However, all everyone could do was stare at each other while shaking their heads.

After a brief moment, a man in a blue suit said, “I found out that the man responsible is a Mr. Stone.

He’s an orphan and was adopted into a simple family at ten. He never graduated high school and

instead enlisted himself into the army. He was discharged just recently. He started a company in

Cloutopia and even became the father of someone else’s daughter not long after he came back.”

“So, are you saying that the man is a complete pushover?” The others asked.

The man shook his head and said, “Well, that’s not the point. I just found it odd that with a life like that,

he somehow managed to convince the four great families in Cloudtopia to be subservient to him. I’m

afraid that there is something we aren’t able to look into.”

“Oh please!” A man angrily interjected, “I don’t care what he did, but all of that is in Cloudtopia. If he

dares stick his nose into our city, I will be the first to reject him!”

“Yeah, me too!”

“Regardless of how capable he is, his reach is only limited to his city. We can’t just sit idly by to allow

him to do whatever he wants here, right?”

“That’s right! He’s not playing on his home turf now. Besides, we have the numbers!”

Everyone was complaining about Skylar. However, the middle-aged man who spoke first frowned and

said, “Silence! Let’s hear from Elder Wilkins first!”

It was only then did everyone turn their attention to an elderly man in a long robe. That man was none

other than Elder Wilkins himself.

His appearance alone clearly showed his unparalleled experience compared to the others. After the

room was silenced, Elder Wilkins put his tea down and said, “You are acting too hasty now. Have all of

you forgotten that Parker stormed our city alone more than a decade ago? According to what I know,

he has two brothers. The eldest has taken over his father’s business. While the middle child has

started his own gang elsewhere. He has more men than ours. Do you think he will be able to accept

the fact that Parker was murdered? Even if he doesn’t do anything, his entire family will not sit idly by to

allow this to go unpunished. So tell me, what’s the rush when there are more people out there that will

deliver judgment anyway, right?”

Everyone was delighted to hear that.

Elder Wilkins took another sip of tea and continued, “So, before the whole situation is clear to us, we

should just sit back and enjoy the show. If the Parker family wins, then great. However, if they lose,

we’d be able to learn what that brat is truly capable of. So, we’ll see if he’ll come out of this unscathed

or not.”
