“Sigh…” Charles Carter looked at William Carter in this state, knowing that William Carter was truly disheartened with the family. But what could he do?

The family had wronged him first, so it was only natural for him to hold a grudge.

“He took the Vein-Burning Pill, and all his potential has been exhausted. Even if he joins the Xuanming Sect, he won’t achieve much. He shouldn’t pose much of a threat to the Zheng family in the future.”

Charles Carter knew that William Carter would never forgive the Zheng family, so he didn’t try to stop him anymore. Instead, he reminded him, “Edward Carter has been in the Xuanming Sect for a year now. With your current strength, seeking revenge on him will only backfire. I think you’d better avoid him as much as possible.”

William Carter clasped his fists in thanks and said, “Thank you for the warning, Patriarch. In that case, I’ll be on my way!”

With a farewell, he left the room, led the “Wind-Chasing Colt” out of the stable, mounted it, and headed out of the city.

“Third Elder, William Carter has left the city!”

Not long after William Carter left, a spy dressed in green, with crafty eyes and a sneaky look, rushed into Thomas Carter’s room, knelt before him, and reported.

“Leave.”

Thomas Carter waved his hand, and the spy obediently withdrew.

Looking at Robert Carter, who was lying on the bed, face pale and still unconscious, he clenched his fists tightly in anger. “Useless wretch, how dare you injure my Ping’er like this! If I don’t kill you, I am not Thomas Carter!”

With a flick of his sleeve, he left the room.

After avoiding the eyes of others, he made his way to a dilapidated courtyard.

At this moment, a young man with a long scar on his face and a vicious look in his eyes was sitting cross-legged, practicing his breathing.

Seeing Thomas Carter enter the courtyard, the youth immediately stood up, folded his hands, bowed his head, and greeted, “Master!”

Thomas Carter nodded and ordered, “Andrew Carter, come with me outside the city and kill that wretch!”

“Yes, Master!”

Andrew Carter nodded respectfully, quickly changed into black clothes, and wrapped his face with a black cloth.

Then, the two of them mounted their horses and chased after William Carter outside the city.

Riding the “Wind-Chasing Colt,” William Carter galloped at full speed, quickly leaving Tianfang City, where he had lived for many years, far behind.

Once he crossed the hill ahead, he would leave the territory of Tianfang City and enter unfamiliar lands.

“Clop clop clop!”

At that moment, two urgent hoofbeats suddenly sounded from behind.

William Carter thought the travelers were in a hurry, so he quickly reined in his horse to give them the right of way.

“Wretch, why aren’t you running anymore?”

Just as he slowed the “Wind-Chasing Colt,” a mocking voice came from behind.

Then, the two riders galloping at full speed appeared before him.

Thomas Carter, and a masked man in black.

“No wonder the hoofbeats were so urgent—it turns out they were after me! And to think I kindly stopped to let them pass.”

Looking at the two men before him, William Carter sneered coldly, while secretly observing his surroundings, preparing to break through!

A cold glint flashed in Thomas Carter’s eyes, and the muscles on his face twisted with hatred. He sneered, “You little bastard, your luck is something else. I’ve wanted to kill you many times but never had the chance. Now let’s see who can save you! Die!”

Thomas Carter dismounted and aimed his palm at the “Wind-Chasing Colt.” As long as he killed the horse with one strike, William Carter would lose his means of escape.

“Thomas Carter, don’t you dare harm Yier!”

Just as Thomas Carter was about to strike, the sound of hoofbeats came from not far away. A dark figure leapt into the air and struck him back with a single palm.

Seeing James Carter once again thwart his plans, Thomas Carter said angrily, “James Carter! What exactly do you want? You’ve ruined my plans time and again—do you want me to kill you?”

James Carter ignored him and urged William Carter, “Feng’er, I’ll hold them off for you. Go, quickly!”

“Thank you, Fourth Elder!”

With such a disparity in strength, staying would only drag James Carter down and make things worse. William Carter clasped his fists in thanks, then spurred the “Wind-Chasing Colt” and sped away.

“Don’t even think about escaping!”

Thomas Carter tried to mount his horse, but James Carter blocked his way first.

“You’re courting death!”

Murderous intent surged in Thomas Carter’s eyes.

James Carter had thwarted his attempts to kill William Carter many times, and he already hated him to the bone. Only because of his elder status had he not dealt with him before.

He hadn’t expected this fool to be so reckless as to chase him out of the city. Since that was the case, if he didn’t kill him now, it would be hard to justify!

He ordered the masked Andrew Carter, “Leave that wretch to you!”

“Yes, Master!”

The man in black mounted his horse, slapped its rump, and sped after William Carter.

James Carter tried to intercept, but Thomas Carter blocked him, shouting, “James Carter, a year from today will be your death anniversary—die!”

“If you want me dead, it won’t be that easy!” James Carter retorted without backing down.

The two of them then began to fight fiercely.

“Bang! Bang! Bang!”

The sounds of violent blows kept coming from behind, but William Carter had no time to pay attention.

Riding the “Wind-Chasing Colt,” he kept urging the horse on, trying to make it run even faster.
