Dragon Lord Crane Smith

Chapter 16 The End of the Duncan family

"Hmm?"

Alfred froze.

The silence was broken by the ringing of the phone.

The caller was the henchman he had sent to capture Flora and her daughters.

A sudden ominous thought came over him at this moment, but he remained unbelieving.

"Kid, my men are calling, I'll give you ten seconds to get down on your knees and make amends, and I

can spare your wife and daughters, or you're the one responsible for their death!"

For a while, countless people were looking at Crane with cold eyes, they wanted to see what this guy

would actually do.

The same went for Finley.

However, he was immediately disappointed as Crane's face was devoid of any ripples, and instead, he

sneered and laughed.

"You answer the phone first."

His bored look made Alfred and the others more and more shocked, and Alfred directly clicked on the

speakerphone, then said arrogantly, "How did it go? Are those three already like dogs?"

Insult.

Humiliation!

In this instant, Crane's face was as cold as frost, and killing intent burst forth.

But he endured it.

Prey that just needs to be tortured properly to be interesting.

Alfred smiled and picked up the phone, just as he listened to a voice that was extremely unfamiliar to

Alfred coming from the other side!

"Alfred Duncan, right?"

"Your men have all been scrapped and pulled out to feed the dogs."

"Besides, you dare to insult our Mrs. Smith and the two young lords, do you not want your tongue

anymore?"

Spencer's voice was extremely cold.

Even Alfred, who was on the other side of the phone, couldn't stop his body from trembling.

The men he sent out were all good, one would have no problem fighting two or three, and there were a

dozen of them!

But now, they were actually all caught, which made it hard for Alfred to accept.

"What are you?"

He questioned angrily.

Spencer chuckled and said, "Who am I? I am a subordinate of the lord before you."

"Oh, by the way, it seems your Duncan family is being investigated by the Security Department and the

Department of Banking Supervision."

The words fell, and the call was hung up straight away.

Alfred's face turned pale.

While those first words angered him, the last was straight from the heart.

Their Duncan family was being investigated?

"No, it can't be!"

Master Arthur of the Duncan family was also close enough to naturally hear Spencer's words, and Contentt bel0ngs to N0ve/lDrâ/ma.O(r)g!

immediately just didn't believe him.

"Mr. Alfred, we can confirm it by making a phone call to the Provincial Banking Supervision Division!"

"Yes, yes, yes, we have quite a few contacts in the Banking Supervision Division in the provincial

capital, if we are really investigated, those people will definitely notify us at the first opportunity."

Master Arthur agreed.

Only then did Alfred react and hastily dialed a call to the very people they had contacts with in the

provincial capital.

But either they didn't answer or just hung up.

The only few that got through were either advising him to hurry up to leave the country or scolding him

angrily.

The last one in particular was absolutely furious.

"Alfred, you son of a bitch, don't you know what kind of big shot you've offended?"

"Everyone within the Division of Banking Supervision, including myself, who was associated with you,

is now suspended and investigated!"

"Fuck you, Alfred, I'll kill you! I won't let you go even if I'm a ghost!"

This last one's words scared Alfred so much that he dropped his phone on the floor.

He seemed to have aged by dozens of years, and he couldn't stop staggering backwards.

Master Arthur and Master Alex were also a bit alarmed.

"How come? Our Duncan family was investigated and all of our contacts in the provincial capital were

invalidated, how could all of these things be crammed into today!"

They couldn't believe the fact.

After all, the Duncan family considered itself to be the overlord in Stone City and possessed a sufficient

network of contacts in the provincial city, who dared to take a shot at the Duncan family?

But someone had the audacity to do it.

Alfred's eyes were lax, but he quickly remembered something and immediately turned his gaze to

Crane.

"Did you guys do this?"

That was the only possibility he could think of.

Who else has the ability to do this but Crane?

Finley?

It wasn't that Alfred underestimated him, but when it came to his contacts in the provincial capital, his

power, Finley was truly no match for him, let alone doing something so ruthless.

Crane looked at him and smiled coldly.

This one instantly made Alfred mad as hell.

He couldn't wait to rip Crane apart right now.

But now, he no longer had this time, he had to return to the Duncan family immediately to deal with

these matters, and absolutely could not let the Duncan family collapse on this.

Just before they could move, the next moment, there was a pattering sound from outside Jade

Emperor Temple, and the cacophony of footsteps made the crowd freeze.

The next moment, a group of guard warriors entered and directly surrounded the entire Duncan family,

as well as those who followed them.

Finley froze.

First, the Duncan family was investigated.

Now there were people from the guard corps, which was the exclusive armed force of the governor in

the provincial capital, far too powerful than the local Security Department, even the hundreds of

musketeers of the Duncan family were scared to lower their guns when they saw these well-trained,

several hundred guard warriors, and did not dare to be arrogant at all.

Only the one person Finley then saw made him even more completely devastated.

John Porter!

This man, the head of the entire Q State, could be considered a frontier official!

It was logical that this one big shot should be sitting in the governor's residence and overseeing the

military administration of the state.

But why was he here?

Alfred, the Duncan family, and those who followed the Duncan family were also frozen in their tracks.

"Porter, Governor Porter, what brings you here?"

Alfred didn't dare to be slow and was about to go forward to greet him, but the next moment he was

stopped by two guards with guns.

The blackened muzzle of the gun made Alfred sweat coldly.

John gave him a contemptuous look before coming to Crane and bowed deeply.

"Mr. Smith, as you instructed, the entire Dingjun Mountian has been sealed off and no one is allowed to

leave now."

"Including, these assholes!"

John's gaze seemed like a sharp sword blade that could almost pierce Alfred and the others to death.

"Everyone is a dignified figure in Stone City, so it's just as well that I don't need to go notifying them one

by one."

When he said that, his voice doubled.

"I, John Porter, declare that from today onwards, Stone City, no longer has a Duncan family!
