When even Gerald Simmons, chief of Riverton general affairs called as well, Burt was left


    stunned by how many bigwigs of Riverton were demanding Frank''s release.


    While he might even have released Frank on any other day given his vast influence, it was not


    happening now.


    He was a member of Sage Lake Sect, and he would offer his aid after they called upon him—


    that, or die terribly for causing offense against the sect.


    Frank chuckled. "Let me go now, and I can pretend today never happened. I''ll even offer you a


    ce when Mystic Sky Sect rises again."

    Bang!


    A deafening crash ensued from the doorway so loudly both men could hear it even from the


    sealed room.


    Burt frowned, intending to check out what happened when one of his men scrambled inside. "This is


    bad, sir. There''s this huge group who just came in..."


    Burt remained calm. "Who has the balls to storm a precinct?"


    "I don''t know, but they''re carrying guns!" the junior officer cried.


    "What?!" Burt was bbergasted, but before he realized what had happened, a squad of armed men

    him to the floor and leaving him seeing stars.


    He also realized in shock that Hans was Birthright-rank too!


    ring downward at Burt, Hans barked, "You really have a pair, arresting Mr. Lawrence!"


    Burt bit his lip but stayed silent—who on earth was Frank Lawrence that he had such friends?

    He wheeled on Burt, bellowing, "What are you spacing out for?! Release this man already!"


    "That''s unnecessary."


    That was when Frank quietly rose to his feet, his biceps tightening as he shattered Sage Lake


    Sect''s so- called sage fetters.


    Burt was left gaping from the floor—Frank actually broke the fetters with brute strength?!


    He started sweating buckets, as he knew then that Frank would have no trouble killing him even


    if Hans and his boys never came!


    Who was Frank? Why had he never heard of such a character from Mystic Sky Sect?
