Chapter 577 Suspecting Lord Campbell Content protected by Nôv/el(D)rama.Org.

As his head was lopped off by her crescent blade, the last thing Tyrone saw within his blurry vision was his headless body on the ground.

Following Braxton’s death, news of Tyrone’s beheading and Hamish’s disappearance sent shockwaves through the Ten Prestigious Families. It was also rumored that the head of the Campbell family died in shock upon hearing the news.

As a result, an uproar was sparked within the sleepy city of Pollerton. As there were less than a hundred Mortal Realm experts in the entire world, they were considered invincible wherever they went.

However, not only was the Youngblood family’s safe house destroyed, but Hamish of the Campbell family also disappeared. The turn of events triggered everyone’s curiosity as to what was going on in Pollerton, and if there was an undefeatable warrior there.

Meanwhile, inside the Trapezium Palace in Yeringham, the stern-looking Lamont was sitting at the head of the conference room table. “Explain to me how the Ten Prestigious Families messed up the situation in Pollerton.”

Previously, they had a simple plan—to equally divide Pollerton and strike it rich together. However, ever since Lord Campbell’s faction got involved, they lost control of the situation there.

Not only did they fail to preserve their grip on the various industries within the city, but they also allowed Donald to discreetly establish the Dragon Fide Corporation which became a direct competitor.

Now that Braxton and Tyrone had been killed, the other prestigious families withdrew their family members from the city due to their concerns about security.

Consequently, Pollerton fell into a situation where there was no clear leader at the helm.

“Hamish was the youngest Mortal Realm expert in my family. After learning from Tyrone that there was a Dragonia Badge in Pollerton, he decided to investigate. Unfortunately, he disappeared after that. Therefore, I feel that it’s imperative that we find him now. Only then can we learn the truth about what happened.”

The Campbell family’s representative, Talbot Campbell, who was dressed in a white mourning outfit, was visibly distraught.

Tyrone’s death and Hamish’s disappearance dealt a devastating blow to Luke, who died from shock after puking a mouthful of blood. Thus, his death impacted the Campbell family just as gravely.

As a result, the Campbell family couldn’t care less about profit anymore. All they could think of was getting to the bottom of the matter and finding the culprit. Only then could they exact revenge on Luke’s behalf.

Lamont calmly remarked, “I don’t deny the importance of finding out who the perpetrator is. After all, the destruction of Est Montaigne had impacted Youngblood Group greatly. That said, have you considered the possibility that Lord Campbell is the one behind all this?”

Lamont’s question caused everyone’s expressions to drastically change.

Even though Lord Campbell helmed Quadfield currently, his identity remained a mystery, while his strength was difficult to estimate.

If he was the one behind Braxton and Tyrone’s deaths and was also responsible for Hamish’s disappearance, the matter would be significantly more complicated.

“That’s impossible!” Talbot exclaimed. “The Campbell family has no quarrel with Lord Campbell, so why would he take Tyrone’s life? Besides, if he really wants the Campbell family destroyed, there’s no need

for him to take such clandestine measures. Wouldn’t a single order from him be enough to eradicate my entire family?”

The rest of the representatives nodded in agreement.

Based on Lord Campbell’s influence, he didn’t need to resort to such unscrupulous methods at all.

Since he could wipe out the Ten Prestigious Families with a snap of his fingers, it made no sense for him to do so in such a roundabout way.

Lamont sneered, “How do you know that there’s no bad blood between the Campbell family and Lord Campbell? And what makes you think that he is always transparent in what he does?”

“Lamont, what are you trying to say?”

“My point is that judging from the power spectrum within Pollerton, only Lord Campbell is capable of destroying Est Montaigne and making Hamish disappear. Unless, of course, you know someone else that’s equally powerful?”
