Love At The Wrong Table

Chapter 1932

“Is that so?” Salem’s eyes widened in disbelief.

He furrowed his brow and fell silent momentarily before letting out a soft

grunt. “Most great fighters from thirty years ago have retired into obscurity

But the word on the street is that the strongest in the martial arts world today

are Gwain Lannister and the Northern Wolf Warrior. If what you say is true,

then this young man must indeed possess exceptional talent.”

“Great Master, what should we do? Do you want us to kill them all?” Gary

asked, bowing with a gaze filled with murderous intent.

The Ancient Woods was the heart of the Summerton family’s power, a

fortress filled with deadly traps and ingenious mechanisms. Three young

Lannisters breaking in? Even if the entire Lannister clan were to launch an

assault, the Summertons could easily wipe them out.

However, no one dared to act rashly without explicit orders from Salem.

To everyone’s surprise, his response was unexpectedly calm.

“Let them come,” he said, his voice eerily calm. “After all, the Dragon Tome

rightfully belongs to the Lannister family. It’s only fitting that it should return to

its rightful owners.”

Gary was stunned into silence. The Dragon Tome was legendary, the most

coveted martial arts manual in existence. Every fighter in the world would

give anything to possess it. Yet Salem was handing it over so easily.

“You may go now,” Salem said, dismissing Gary with a wave. He then turned to his twenty–eighth wife and instructed, “Bring me the scripture.”

As she hurried to fulfill his request, Salem addressed Julian and his siblings,

“You are of Summerton blood, even if you’re from an outer branch. Every

family member has studied the Dragon Tome for thirty years, yet none have fully comprehended its secrets. Now, I’m entrusting it to you. Let’s see if you

possess the talent to decipher it.”

This unexpected turn of events took Julian aback. While he wasn’t entirely

Ashton, noticing her brother’s hesitation and fearing he might decline this

golden opportunity, quickly interjected, “Thank you, Great–Grandpa! We

promise to study it diligently!”

Her mind was already racing with visions of power. She imagined herself

becoming as formidable as Emmanuel. She dreamed of the day when that

man would no longer dare look down on her. Revenge and glory–it would all

come so easily if she mastered the ultimate martial arts.

“Very well. Take it with you,” Salem said as his twenty–eighth wife returned

with a yellowed scripture. He handed it to Julian casually.

Julian accepted it without much thought, while Ashton was so caught up in

her fantasies of power that she didn’t notice anything odd. Roselynn, however, had a keen eye and quickly realized something was off. The

scripture didn’t look ancient–it barely appeared to be thirty years old!

After handing over the Dragon Tome, Salem instructed them to leave via the

back of the mountain.

Ashton, consumed with excitement and eager to start training, had

completely forgotten the reason they had come in the first place. Meanwhile,

though more cautious, Julian couldn’t think of a good reason to stay when

Salém ordered them to leave.

“Julian, let me see that book,” Roselynn requested, her instincts telling her

something was amiss. She wanted to inspect it before they even began their

descent. She had a gut feeling that Salem had no intention of protecting

them. He seemed to want to hurry them out of Ancient Woods.

“Here!” Julian handed the book over without a second thought. He would giv

She carefully examined the cover and back of the book. The material looked suspiciously modern for what was purported to be an ancient, legendary

was a printed version!

“Are you kidding me?” Julian exclaimed, his realization dawning. Did

Great–Grandpa just play us for fools?”

Ashton’s fantasies of power crumbled instantly, replaced by a surge of anger.

“This can’t be some cheap, fake martial arts manual, can it? Where’s the

printing press for this thing?” If Roselynn hadn’t stopped her, she might have

torn the book to pieces right then and there.

“Calm down,” Roselynn cautioned, her mind working to make sense of the

situation. “We’ll take it back and have my younger brother examine it. He’ll

know if it’s real or not.”

She knew they couldn’t have come all this way for nothing. She suspected

Salem was not treating them as true family members but as tools to use, but

she had no proof.
