Chapter 4668
"What do you mean by that?"
Harvey frowned.
He could tell that there was another meaning in Kairi's words. Quite a lot must have happened recently.
"To prevent Blaine from suspecting your skills and true purpose, m there's something I've been hiding from you.
"In reality, many major things have been happening behind the scenes."
Kairi had no intention of hiding anything anymore. She pulled out her flask and poured a cup of black tea for
Harvey, smiling.
"The Hermit Families have been going against Faceless for quite a while.
"He found himself quite a few experts to assassinate the families, too.
"I suspect he's involved with what happened to the Braff family.

"You'll be under Faceless and Blaine's scrutiny from now on. So, there's no point in hiding anything from you
anymore."
Harvey smiled.
"I see.
"So you guys just sat still while he kept sending assassins after you?"
Kairi chuckled.
"Of course not.
"The ten Poison Masters under my belt have all taken action.
"They disappeared completely after that, while Faceless remained completely unscathed.
"Under such circumstances, it's hard to get a conclusion for this battle.
"Faceless announced that if he dies, he'd drag us with him.
"After you dealt with the Braff family's problem, we've decided to fight him to the death.
"Golden Sands belongs to the Hermit Families. We must not let Evermore get his hands on the secrets of this city."
Harvey nodded. He wasn't that well-versed in the city's history, but judging from Kairi's words, he could tell a lot of
blood had been shed.
"Did Blaine show himself yet?" he asked.
"He did." Kairi smiled playfully.
"He made an announcement, saying that the crisis would affect Golden Sands's economy and put the city in great
danger. He even reached out to Wolsing, telling them to be careful.
"He suggested we find a simple way to solve the situation.
"He asked both sides to stop killing each other, as a way to show the John family respect.
"He told us to settle this in the ring if we really want to win.
"Whoever wins would have the right to speak.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏm"If Faceless wins, he could make a strong comeback and make a place here for Evermore.
"And if we win, he'll undoubtedly die."
Kairi's face went slightly red after seeing Harvey finish the tea she gave him. She was probably embarrassed at the
thought of sharing an indirect kiss.
Harvey smiled calmly; he didn't grasp her thoughts, so he didn't realize it.
If he wanted to, he could've figured out Blaine's plan with ease.
But since he wanted to pretend to be a geomancy expert to lure Blaine out, he didn't do anything out of the
ordinary.
"It seems as if Blaine's standing out for the benefit of Golden Sands. He looks like he's trying to suppress the chaos
and keep the losses of the city to a minimum, but...
"The cat's already out of the bag. If you think about it properly, it'd be easy to figure out that he's leaning on
Evermore's side,"
Harvey said calmly.
