Chapter 1471
Looking For Help
Over at the Dunn residence, Lachlan appeared sullen, for he knew it was a moment of life and death
for his family.
In the past, the Dunns and the Nortons were opposing forces. With Skylar assuming the vice
presidency of the Warriors Alliance, he would definitely take the Dunn family down.
Almost all the sects in Jadeborough’s martial arts world were already part of the Warriors Alliance, so it
would be a futile effort if Lachlan were to challenge the alliance.
“Dad, I think Skylar won’t do anything to us openly even though he’s the vice president of Warriors
Alliance. Our family has a high social standing in Jadeborough. If he lifts a finger against us, we will just
talk to Mr. Sanders. The Warriors Alliance doesn’t have the final say in the martial arts world here,”
Howard uttered when he noticed his father’s grim mood.
“Well…” Lachlan replied with a sigh. “Not exactly. Mr. Sanders would have acted long ago if he had
wanted to. The alliance has grown so influential only because Mr. Sanders allowed it.”
“Why didn’t he do anything?” Howard blurted, confused.
“How would I know? There’s no way we know what the authorities have in mind,” Lachlan replied,
shaking his head.
Howard did not know what else to say, and everyone fell into silence.
“Dad,” Howard called out after some time. “What about we ask the Gunderson family for help? They
are the only ones who have not joined the Warriors Alliance in Jadeborough till now. We can count on
them to challenge the alliance.”
“But the Gunderson family has a policy of staying out of trouble. Besides, it’s not like they have any
reasons to help us. We’re not related in any way,” Lachlan disagreed with a frown.
“Let me talk to Astrid, Dad. She helped me when I was in Bliss City. I think she’s a nice person.”
Howard was still grateful to Astrid for saving his life.
When Lachlan heard this, he thought for a bit and nodded. “Sure. Bring some gifts with you. We need
to repay her kindness and test the waters to see the Gunderson family’s take on this.”
“I’ll do that!” Howard left gladly after hearing that.
The Gunderson family was actually one of the most powerful families in Jadeborough, but because
they had neither crossed anyone nor joined any alliance, not many people knew about them.
As for Astrid, she was the most gifted person of her generation. Despite her young age, she had gained
much popularity. Yet, her fame dwindled after she had gone into seclusion.
On the day Howard went over, Astrid was sitting at the gazebo in her house, staring into the east.
“I can’t believe he died just like that,” she mumbled to herself.
“What’s the matter, Astrid? You’ve been distracted ever since you came back from the Trial,” a middle-
aged man noted as he walked toward Astrid with a faint smile.
It was her father, Fernando Gunderson.
Astrid snapped out of her daze and turned to look at the man. “It’s nothing. I felt bored in the room, so I
came out to sit here.”
“Why are you out here on a cold day, though? I saw you were deep in thought just now. Don’t tell me
you’re in love, Astrid. I know it’s about time you have a boyfriend,” Fernando teased, smiling.
“Cut it out, Dad. What are you talking about? I wasn’t thinking about anyone.”
Astrid rolled her eyes and got up to leave, but her father tugged her before she could do so.
“Come on. You’re my daughter. There’s no way I don’t know what’s going on in that head of yours.”
Fernando called her out, chuckling. “Jared was a genius. I like him too, but what can I do? He did not
live long. I can only say he’s not fated to be with you.”
“What nonsense! I wasn’t thinking about him, Dad! I don’t even know him…”
Astrid suddenly felt guilty. She shrugged off her father’s hand, intending to run away from the awkward
conversation.
