Chapter 475 Running Into Milo Tyndall Again

• What happened three years ago hit the Kings hard. Their influence tanked, and among the seven top gatekeeping families, they slipped to the bottom. If not for Grandpa’s lifetime in the military—students and old subordinates scattered everywhere—the Kings would look even worse. The younger generation in the family doesn’t really know what went down back then; otherwise, they’d definitely blame Damon King.
• That’s why Grandpa worries. He’s getting on in years. If he passes, the Kings will drop out of the top-tier families in a heartbeat and might not even count as a premier household. That’s also why Damon has to hold up the sky for them.
• On the flip side, the Dus have been on a tear these three years. In every way, they don’t lose to the Kings. They’re only missing a pillar like Grandpa to steady the ship. Their head, Du Xu, holds a powerful seat now, and he’s still got room to climb—he hasn’t hit his ceiling yet.
