Chapter 1040


    “Everyone! Attack in unison!” ordered Yash aloud.


    With many of the Moldells already seeing red now, they all obeyed Yash’s order, rushing forward to besiege Gerald!


    The truth was that the masters who were currently present weren’t the true top masters within the Moldell family. They had simply mastered more skills and fighting abilities than the regr Moldell. As a result, it was evident that none of them were even close to being proper opponents to Gerald.


    Gerald himself was now attacking and killing everyone in sight as easily as though he was simply cutting through vegetables.


    Anyone who stood in his way instantly met a violent death.


    “H-He’s strong... He’s simply too strong!” shouted Yash as he gulped down hard. Having more people meant nothing if none of them were even capable of dealing damage to Gerald!


    Taking advantage of the chaos, Yash rushed over to Yuvan—who was still lying on the same spot he hadnded in—before anxiously asking, “S-second young master! How are you feeling?!”


    “T-they’ve been severed... All my meridians have been severed!” yelled Yuvan as he endured his pain.


    Scream after scream followed as more of the Moldells were ughtered.


    Though some of the Moldells had experienced more ups and downs in lifepared to the others, none of them had ever encountered such arge scale massacre. Knowing that they weren’t going to survive the night, many of them simply continued screaming in horror as they held on dearly to their children.


    “We can’t hold on much longer! We simply aren’t Gerald’s opponents! He’s too powerful! I need to lead you away from all this, second young master! My priority is to save your life!” dered Yash who was more anxious than ever as he continued watching as more members of his family flopped to the ground, lifelessly.


    “N-No! I refuse to ept that!” growled Yuvan as he gritted his teeth in protest.


    “There is simply no other way! The third young master is already gone so nothing should befall you as well! We’ll decide our next move once the family head returns but until then, we should leave first, second young master! Everyone! Try your best to provide cover for the second young master!” shouted Yash as he immediately began making his move.


    Hearing that, the Moldells deliberately made themselves blind with anger as they all roared, “We’ll kill you!”N?velDrama.Org exclusive content.


    As they all rushed toward Gerald, Yash took the opportunity to carry Yuvan out to safety amidst the chaos.


    “No! I can’t leave like this! All the other Moldells are still inside! I refuse to leave without first killing Gerald!” yelled Yuvan as he held on to his pain.


    Yash however, held on to the iling man, ignoring everything he said until he knew they were in a rtively safe spot. A few other bodyguards were the only ones to follow, eager to escape with their lives intact.


    Panic ran rampant within everyone as horrified screams and the cries of suffering children filled the air!


    Not long after, Yash and the guards finally stopped running once they reached the top of a hill.


    Turning back to look at the Moldell Manor, they found that it was already erupting in mes! What had happened to the rest of the Moldells was more than evident by this point.


    “Butler Moldell, your concerns truly were spot on! Bringing him back to the Moldell Manor truly did spell the ruin of the Moldell family! We’ve brought this cmity and misfortune upon ourselves!” cried out the few guards that had followed them out.


    While Yash was filled with regret for not trusting his gut more, he was also feeling extremely bitter. After all, while they had finally managed to capture Gerald after an entire year of searching for him, bringing him back with them was synonymous with bringing catastrophe to their door!


    Gerald truly was a cruel and ruthless person! He didn’t even spare the young, old, or even women despite their inability to fight back!


    “B-Butler Moldell! Look there!” said one of the bodyguards as he pointed at the Moldell Manor that was still aze.


    Turning to look at the exact spot the bodyguard was pointing at, Yash saw arge group of at least three hundred people dressed in ck approaching the manor.


    The moment they stopped moving, it became evident that their task was topletely block all the entrances of the manor. By doing so, anyone still alive in there who tried to make it out of the mes would still end up meeting a terrible fate.


    “...It’s over... It’s truly all over for our family!” wailed Yash as he watched as the remaining Moldells who tried to escape the fire got brutally murdered the moment they got out of the manor.


    Kneeling on the ground as he grabbed a fistful of dirt, Yash then added, “...He came prepared... All his men are top masters as well! It’s all over for us! Wait, inform the family head about this immediately! Tell him that the Crawford family’s influence and power is no longer the same as it was before!”


    As the veins on his forehead rose, one of the bodyguards cried out, “It’s no use! I’ve already tried calling but it seems that all methods ofmunication have been cut off! We can’t call anyone at all!”


    Hearing that, Yash frowned as he racked his brains to think of their next step.


    “...This isn’t good. We need to withdraw for now! Quickly!”
