As he was free, Quentin had been deep in his own thoughts during the past couple of days.
Not many were in that category of those who could kill his sons, especially his eldest son, Cloud Hunt.
He initially held the belief that Helena and Fane were in on it together, but he knew that although Helena had the same fighting prowess as his eldest son, her combat power was definitely not above his eldest son’s. Coupled with the fact that Fane had a low fighting prowess, the possibility of them defeating his sons was not great.
That suspicion of his resurfaced and only grew, however, as he noticed Fane's
ultimate-grade spiritual tool.
After all, his sons did not offend any other prodigies from other families. They would not have dared to kill his sons even if a fight happened inside.
Fane and Helena, on the other hand, had an altercation against Tyrell before the competition started. After they entered the area, they must have worked together to kill Tyrell while Cloud was killed possibly due to his carelessness when avenging his brother. It was also possible that Fane and Helena had some other vicious actions.
The family master of the Lancaster family, Shirley Lancaster, agreed with Nash as she spoke, "Yes, we can't allow them to set such a precedent. Once they wipe out one of our families and nobody from the other reclusive families step forward or unite together, more and more of such things would happen in the future. We can even be the next targets!"
Quentin nodded. "I agree with what you both have said—we mustn't allow them to set such a precedent. It’ll be terrible if something like that happened. Any contradictions between us reclusive families need to be settled internally, and what happens between the Four Ancients Clans should be settled by themselves. If the Four Ancients Clans plan to pick on us, then we, the reclusive families, need to unite and defeat them unanimously."
"Indeed. We're relieved to hear this from Master Hunt!" beamed Shirley.
