I Am the Ruler of All (Kingsley) novel Chapter 819

Ask the head patriarch of the Seavale Stewart Family?! Does that mean… the head patriarch gave him the manual?!

Bronte looked resentful and muttered, "Alright then, we'll ask! Why did the head patriarch teach the most important martial arts to outsiders while we, the cadet descendants, can only practice ordinary martial arts?!"

Jake also wore a puzzled expression. "Yeah! What is the head patriarch thinking?! Doesn't he know that the secrecy of ancient martial arts is crucial? If other families also gain access to the ancient martial arts succession, our Diosna Stewart Family, as the only ancient martial arts family in Qustia, will lose its competitive edge!"

Other young members of the Stewart Family also chimed in.

"That's right, Mr. Adrian! We should contact the Seavale Stewart Family to find out what's going on!"

"The Stewart Family has been passing down these techniques for centuries, and they've never leaked outside before. Could there be something suspicious going on?"

Listening to the comments from the Stewart Family members, Kingsley maintained a calm exterior but felt somewhat nervous inside. He had fabricated this lie, gambling that Adrian wouldn't dare to inquire with the Seavale Stewart Family. If Adrian had decided to make that call, Kingsley would have had no choice but to take drastic measures.

After a while, Adrian shook his head slightly and said, "No, we cannot make this call."

"Why not?!" Bronte exploded, his frustration apparent. "Mr. Adrian, why can't we make the call?!"

Without waiting for Adrian to explain, Kingsley casually crossed his legs and said plainly, "Because you have offended me, and you are not worthy of knowing my relationship with the Seavale Stewart Family!

"If Mr. Stewart were to make that call, he would face severe consequences from the Seavale Stewart Family. Kneeling for three days and three nights as punishment for someone not even ten years old? Now, won't they just wipe out your entire branch for this?”

Hearing this, the Stewart Family members shivered involuntarily. Some things were better left unknown, and there was a saying, "Better to be safe than sorry." There was a type of death caused by knowing too much. Furthermore, Kingsley's display of martial arts just now was undoubtedly genuine!

"But I made a promise to someone else before, and I must keep that promise," Kingsley said with a quirked brow as he looked at Bronte and Jake. "I want these two."

"You!" Jake's countenance changed, and he said with a hint of anger, "I have never provoked you! I didn't even harm you in our previous match! Why won't you spare me?!"

Bronte also butted in, "Yeah! I haven't offended you either! You've already broken my wrist! Isn't that enough?!"

Kingsley extended his finger and pointed at Jake, gently shaking it. "You are a promise I made to someone else."

Then, he pointed at Bronte. "And you injured my friend. This matter is not over."
