A Man Like None Other (Jared Chance) novel Chapter 1466

Chapter 1466 Calm

“It’s fine as long as Jared is dead. We should prioritize calming the other martial arts families’ anger now.”

With that, Ryker strode toward the exit. Yet, after taking two steps forward, he halted and turned around to say, “Edgar, it’ll be best if you avoid going out for the time being. Just stay at home and focus on cultivating. It’d be rather troublesome if others found out about your current condition.”

Without another word, Ryker left the Deragon residence and hastened to the Warriors Alliance’s headquarters.

Over at the lobby of the Warriors Alliance’s headquarters, Zion was in a joyous mood. Not only did we kill Jared during the Trial, but I’ve also brought back so many beast cores for the Warriors Alliance. I believe the higher-ups won’t punish me anymore. Perhaps they may even reward me with some magical items!

Amidst Zion’s elation, Ryker entered.

“Mr. Deragon, please have a seat.” Zion was courteous toward Ryker.

The Deragon family hosted the Trial, so they deserved part of the credit for Jared’s death and the retrieval of all those beast cores. Therefore, Zion thought he should treat Ryker more politely.

“President Zeigler, during the Trial this time, Edgar had behaved hot-headedly by simply changing the rules, invoking dissatisfaction from many martial arts families. Negative news about my family is spreading like wildfire, so I wish to seek your help in coming up with a way to subdue the spread of this matter,” Ryker cut to the chase.

Zion frowned slightly after hearing that. “Mr. Deragon, the Deragon family is a member of Warriors Alliance; we will certainly help you address this issue. But you should also be aware that many of these clans aren’t members of the Warriors Alliance, so they aren’t under our jurisdiction. Nevertheless, I can promise you I’ll punish those sects and families under Warriors Alliance that dared to criticize the Deragons.”

“Mr. Deragon, these sects, and families are not a part of Warriors Alliance, so we do not have control over them, but we can let them join us from now on. As long as they become one of us, they’ll have to heed President Zeigler’s words, right?” Skylar suggested while wearing a thin smile.

Ryker flashed a wry smile after hearing that. “Mr. Norton, if these sects and clans wished to join Warriors Alliance, they would’ve done so long ago. Why would they wait until now to make the decision? It is not up to us to decide their participation.”

“Mr. Deragon is right. Most of the sects and families are reluctant to be part of Warriors Alliance because they feel restricted. There’s no way we can force them to join us,” Zion remarked.

“This is easily resolvable. Mr. Edgar obtained a substantial amount of beast cores from the Trial. We can allocate a portion of the cores as resources to distribute to those willing to join Warriors Alliance. Not to mention, these new participants can also enjoy Warriors Alliance’s other resources. Aside from the annual Trial, we can add more perks for them. I reckon no one will be able to refuse these benefits, right?” Skylar said to the other two.
