“I know the woman on the boat. She… Is my ex-brother-in-law’s mother!”
Upon hearing what she said, both of them were dumbfounded.
“Are you sure?”
“Why would your ex-brother-in-law’s mother be on the boat? Oh, I remember now. Earlier, I saw the news. It’s said that the old man threw a woman into the boat. It looks like your ex-brother-in-law’s mother is the one captured by the old man. She’s… a hostage!”
When Beatrice heard it, she became more panicked. Brittany Rockefeller was a hostage, but why would the old man take her as a hostage?
There was only one answer!
It was because of Alex Rockefeller!
The old man’s target was Alex He wanted to battle with Alex. He was waiting at Moonlight Lake for Alex!
At 4 p.m., Michigan’s Stoermer family arrived at the scene.
Other than Xyla Stoermer and Kazim Stoermer among the people who came, there was also the current patriarch of the family, Zayn Stoermer.
Zayn was with his son earlier before rushing over from Michigan. They did not clearly know what happened at first. They only heard about the news that an expert of Grandmaster-level had made a battle appointment at Moonlight Lake. To martial artists, especially he who had just advanced to Grandmaster, it was a perfect opportunity for observation. Of course, he could not possibly miss it! He used the Stoermers’ helicopter to come over right away!
To his surprise, he heard even more shocking news after meeting with Xyla.
Zayn asked, “Have you confirmed that the captured hostage is Master Rockefeller’s mother?”
Xyla nodded. “It’s been confirmed! I just verified with Alex’s godsister. The person who made the move was someone from the Witch Doctor Sect. He rushed into Rockefeller Manor and kidnapped Brittany Rockefeller. He even injured a bunch of experts at Rockefeller Manor. But now, Alex is still in Puerto Rico…”
Zayn said, “Alex is the son-in-law and the savior of my Stoermer family. Since he’s not around today, I, Zayn Stoermer, should stand up for him as a matter of course.”
Kazim was a bit worried. “Dad, are you going to fight that old man from the Witch Doctor Sect?”
“That’s the worst-case scenario, but my Stoermer family is also a royal family in America. Whom are we ever afraid of? If he wants to fight, then I’ll fight!”
“You guys stay on the shore. I’ll go there by myself!”
“Dad, you have to be careful then. If you can’t attempt it, just wait until Alex comes back before we do something about it.”
“Rest assured!”
Zayn was the patriarch of the royal family, the Stoermer family.
Once his identity was revealed, even the officials of California could not stop him and let him go right away. Zayn saw an oar boat not far away from his location. He stomped his foot fiercely.
Smack!
In that instant, the cyan slab under his feet was forcibly crushed, forming a huge crater.
Immediately afterward, Zayn’s body soared high as he strode in mid-air, landing steadily on the oar boat.
“Ohh…”
“Oh gosh! Here comes another expert! He’s also an old man. What’s he going to do there?”
Bursts of shouts erupted among the crowd.

People who saw the scene screamed with extreme excitement. Such a scene was usually rarely seen.
Zayn drew a line in the air with his finger and broke the cable.
He stood on the stern of the boat. Activating the Grandmaster’s inner force, the small boat quickly approached the center of the lake.
Someone from Missouri’s Coleman family had also appeared among the crowd on the shore.
Seeing Zayn had made his move, he sneered, “I heard the news that this old man from the Witch Doctor Sect has the cultivation of Innate Martial Honor. This old fart, Zayn Stoermer, just advanced to Grandmaster. He’s seeking his death!”
On the other hand, the crowd was frightened as countless people stared at the small wooden boat that was moving increasingly faster.
