The Pinnacle of Life Chapter 666

Queenie said, “Lex Gunther of Thousand Miles Conglomerate from California! He forcefully took the Sky Tower. If my godfather didn’t agree, the parasitic disease in my godfather’s body would torture him!” “Parasitic disease?” Tristan frowned and turned to Lord Bale. “You’ve been cursed with parasitic disease from Canyonland?” Philip nodded sadly. Tristan replied, “Let me have a look!” Tristan grabbed Philip’s wrist and inserted a small, strong flow of inner force into Philip. It bounced around Lord Bale’s body swiftly. Soon after, he felt something. For such a domineering flow of inner force to be bouncing within him, Lord Bale’s meridians in his entire body felt extremely painful and upset. However, he didn’t dare to scream in front of Tristan nor show any ounce of disobedience on his face. “It’s true, something is inside of your body.” Tristan said. “I didn’t expect these people to know about the art of parasitic disease from Canyonland too. No worries, this is just a small trick. I know the best imperial doctor in America, Wallace Yoke. When the time comes, I’ll just ask him to take the parasitic worm out of you, but Sky Tower is my betrothal gift to the Stoermers, I must get it.” Philip was overjoyed to hear this. Having that green parasitic worm in his stomach was making him to be on pins and needles! He definitely wouldn’t be able to eat or sleep properly with this, he felt as if his life had turned into a living hell. Now that Tristan offered the help of the best imperial doctor, he agreed almost immediately. “Thank you, Mr. Coleman!” He hurriedly grovelled to his feet. “However, those people are extremely powerful, and the Sky Tower will still have to end up in the Champion’s hand after tomorrow‘s tournament. Look at my men, all of them are either dead or injured!” Tristan waved his hand dismissively. “It’s fine, I’ll just have Suzaku participate in your place, as long as you hand us the ownership documents of the Sky Tower.” Almost without hesitation, Philip agreed to his terms. He then asked, “Mr. Coleman, and the imperial doctor…” Tristan said, “I’ll have him over as soon as I get the Sky Tower.” *** At the same time, Zendaya was having dinner with her family and relatives in Stoermer Manor. Zendaya’s grandfather, Percy Stoermer, was the current patriarch of the family. He was in his eighties, his hair was fairly white. Despite his age, he still looked energetic and strong. Percy had three sons and five daughters. All of them were sitting at a large round table with a rotating tray in the centre at the moment. This table was big enough to fit fifty people. The old man loved the liveliness of a big family as well as the household being filled with his children and grandchildren. Hence, he would have everyone appear at every meal. They had hired four top notch chefs to cook for them at their manor, having them to prepare at least fifty dishes for every dinner. They were surely living a luxurious life. After the dinner, Percy looked towards Zendaya lovingly, extremely pleased. “Daya, you’re lucky to have caught the attention of Tristan from the Coleman family of Missouri! You’ve brought honor to the Stoermer family too! Compared to the Colemans, we Stoermers don’t have any outstanding martial artists for the past twenty years. We’re considered the last place among the eight royal families of America.” With that, he let out a deep sigh. The others seemed quite gloomy as well. However, the old man then continued, “But with Tristan Coleman as the Stoermer’s son-in-law, everything would change! Tristan would surely become a Grandmaster within three years. The Stoermer family would now have the youngest Grandmaster known to the public as well! This is great! Simply great! Zendaya, I originally wanted to have you married to Hunter. I didn’t expect you to have such luck!” Everyone at the table seemed relieved and happy. On the contrary, a young woman, who was single and around Zendaya’s age, looked extremely jealous. She couldn’t help but speak up, “I just don’t understand why Tristan would like Zendaya of all people. As an Earth expert and a future Grandmaster, he should find someone just as powerful and skilled as he is! Just look at Zendaya, she doesn’t know jack sh*t about martial arts. What was he even thinking? Hey Daya, were you the one who seduced him?” This woman was Lilith Stoermer, the youngest daughter of Kreacher Stoermer, the eldest son of Percy. She was twenty-four years old and was still unmarried. She wanted to marry Tristan very badly! Zendaya said coldly, “Don’t speak such nonsense.” Lilith replied, “Then why does he want you specifically? You should know that I was the first to be introduced to him, and you’re no better than I am!” Zendaya stood up abruptly and turned to Percy. “Grandpa, just let Lilith marry him, I don’t want to!”
