Chapter 1873 Ambush

Matthew's assumption was correct. The rumors did not provoke Master Levi at all. Instead of dealing with Matthew, he arrested those who spread the rumors and executed them directly to warn the public, proving his support for Matthew with his power.
In that way, no one in the South would have the guts to spread such rumors anymore.
Matthew laughed off the situation and expressed his gratitude to Master Levi through a few polite words. To be frank, he was well aware that everything Master Levi did was considered from the perspective of profit. Therefore, Matthew wasn't grateful to him at all!
