Chapter 504: Emergency (Part 7)

This situation could provide many opportunities for the Yoder family to exploit, perhaps even allowing them to avenge the hefty fine they were previously imposed.

"This matter is quite suspicious. It seems we need to find an opportunity to investigate further," Raithwall Yoder murmured to himself.

Hernan Yoder didn’t catch the last part, "What did you say?"

"Go find Netra Rodriguez and tell him I have something to discuss with him," Raithwall Yoder ordered.

Netra Rodriguez, the Rodriguez family’s Head and Andrian Rogriguez’s father, was also discussing this matter when Hernan Yoder arrived.

"What does Raithwall Yoder want with Father now? Could he be plotting something against the Lin family again? They still haven’t given up after being fined heavily by the Elders Council last time," Andrian Rogriguez sneered.

"Netra, Raithwall Yoder is cunning with his schemes. If our family hadn’t withdrawn quickly last time, we would have been implicated by the Yoder family," said Maran Rodriguez, the Top-tier spiritual cultivators of the Rodriguez family, whose presence was the reason for the Rodriguez family’s current status in the royal durian capital city.

Netra Rodriguez valued the old ancestor’s opinion, "So, Ancestor, does this mean we won’t cooperate with Raithwall Yoder?"

"We can probe what he’s planning, but we should avoid collaborating. With Raithwall Yoder’s cunning and schemes, he might just be looking to use the Rodriguez family as a shield," Maran Rodriguez shook his head.

Although he didn’t particularly like the Lin family and the Zhao family, he had to admit that he would rather deal with these two families than the Yoder family.

The Yoder family was not a good partner.

"Father, the old ancestor is right. We should stay away from the Yoder family’s treacherous ship," Andrian Rogriguez agreed.

"I understand the ancestor’s point. We’ll probe the Yoder’s intentions first. As for Amalia..." Netra Rodriguez paused.

Amalia was now closely tied to the Lin family, making it difficult to get her back to their family.

Maran Rodriguez thought for a moment, "I remember Amalia is from the Big Apple City branch of the Rodriguez family?"

Netra Rodriguez’s eyes lit up, "That’s right. She is Arthur Rodriguez’s niece. I heard Arthur Rodriguez treated her very well when he brought her back to the Rodriguez family."

"If force won’t work, let’s have him try it," Maran Rodriguez decided directly.

"I’ll have someone to bring him to the royal durian capital city immediately," Netra Rodriguez said promptly.

They subconsciously ignored the fact that Arthur Rodriguez had brought Amalia back to their family just to participate in the Rodriguez family’s trial, which had a high mortality rate.

The next morning, Arthur Rodriguez received a message from the main family regarding Amalia.

Although it left him feeling uneasy, he immediately set out for the royal durian capital city.

When he arrived at the Rodriguez family mansion, he saw his haggard son, Alex Rodriguez, at the gate.

"Father," Alex Rodriguez greeted, looking at his father’s somber expression, unsure of what to say.

Since Amalia arrived in the royal durian capital city, her cultivation level and connections have skyrocketed.

In less than a year, she had left them far behind.

Originally, Alex Rodriguez had planned to take revenge, but seeing Amalia climb higher and higher, he realized she had become a Tier 2 spiritual cultivator, while he remained stagnant.

The idea of revenge now seemed impossible; even catching up to her seemed out of reach.

Amalia had become so powerful that Alex Rodriguez felt lost.

His once steadfast goal was fading away, and he no longer knew what he could do to get back at her.

Kill her adoptive parents and make her regret it for life?

They lived in a military compound that even the Yoder family couldn’t access, let alone him.

Destroy her reputation?

He had tried that before, but she had easily brushed it off, neutralizing his efforts effortlessly.

To her, all his scheming probably made him look like a petty clown.

Arthur Rodriguez signaled him to hold off and asked, "Why are you here? Did the head of the family summon you?"

Alex Rodriguez shook his head, "No, I came to the main family to find someone. I didn’t expect to run into you. You go ahead, Father."

Arthur Rodriguez looked at his son, who seemed more mature but had lost his sharpness.

In the end, he said nothing.

...

"It’s you."

Amalia looked at Arthur Rodriguez who suddenly appeared in front of her, frowning.

After Amalia and Kenny Lin decided to go to the heart of the disaster zone together, they planned to wait until Mr. Lin’s injuries stabilized before going there, but they didn’t expect to encounter him at the gate of the military district compound.

It seemed that Arthur Rodriguez was specifically here to intercept her.

The Rodriguez family did not reside in the military district compound, so like the Yoder family, they were all under a ban imposed by the authorities and were not allowed to enter.

The guards strictly enforced this, so even though Arthur Rodriguez claimed to be Amalia’s uncle, it was of no use.

"Amalia, it’s been a long time. Why haven’t you checked in with your uncle? Your uncle has been worried about you," Arthur Rodriguez said with a complicated expression as he looked at Amalia, whose cultivation level was almost on par with his own.

There was a time when Amalia was like an ant in his eyes, easily squashed or molded.

But now, she had surpassed him.

"I remember telling you that I was helping Alex Rodriguez participate in the main family’s trial, and we have no further relationship between us after that," Amalia said calmly, her eyes showing no ripples or fluctuations.

Arthur Rodriguez’s facial muscles twitched slightly, "That was just a moment of confusion on your uncle’s part. We are still family. You are my sister’s only daughter, and I am your only uncle. I have a responsibility to take care of you, Amalia, you..."

"I know why you’re here," Amalia interrupted him without courtesy.
