Riding in a taxi back to the centre of Staten Island where his hotel was, Adam had a satisfied smile on his face and everything seed to be working out, but one thing that was worrying him was that he was yet to co across Martha or Damian.
It was almost guaranteed that he would be doing sothing to get in their way or take the glory for himself so he can beco the family head and or make Angela his wife, however, he didn't know how and when, and it was worrying him.
While Angela, Wayde and Adam were investigating around Staten Island, trying to find out as much as they could about the secretive, Damian and Martha were doing the sa thing.
Damian was surprisingly very capable and intelligent despite his evil character. Like the great elder of the Epstein Family, he was willing to do anything as long as it benefited him. He didn't care about friends or family, all he wanted was the power, wealth and influence to do as he pleased and be the most respected and revered.
Martha was rely a stepping stone for him and since she had helped him a lot, was planning on keeping her as his concubine or second wife, but who he truly wanted was Angela. If her beauty wasn't enough, she would also increase the talent of his offspring to guarantee that he stayed in a position of power after retirent.
He began in a similar way to Wayde, Angela and Adam, which was the most obvious way to gather more information. With his Disguise Illusion Stone activated and the contacts he had in New York, he quickly found out everything that took Adam a day and luck to find out.
If Adam hadn't had the lucky encounters he had on Staten Island, he wouldn't have had much information about the Epstein Family and would have found it very hard to find it out without any connections and his weak power.
While Damian had made contacts all over New York and in preparation for becoming the Maxwell Family Head, was forming his own connections. He not only wanted to destroy the Lin Family and take their territory, resources and knowledge, but Damian had also set his sights on the entirety of New York and wasn't planning to stop there.
There were many that had that sa ambition as Damian, but none were actually following through with it or working towards it like he was, and Damian despite having a very twisted personality, was a very diligent cultivator that continued to progress at a steady speed.
After finding out the current state of the Epstein Family, which was ant to have stayed secret, he had also found out about Cole being a candidate that was getting in the way of Mason.
He knew of Mason despite the Epstein Familt's secretive nature and he had been keeping tabs on all of the cultivation families in New York. With the moles that he had in each of the family, he was fining all the weak points in each of the families to force them to submit to him or destroy them. He had begun his expansion of the Maxwell Family slowly, but didn't want to do much until his position as the family head was guaranteed.
Damian instructed one of his Moles to slip a letter under Mason's door and leave the family. He had set up many different locations around the city for his close subordinates to hide and stay at.
The letter inford Mason of who he was and stated that he wanted to et him at a certain location to speak about how their goals aligned and form an alliance.
Although the Maxwell Family wasn't as powerful as the Lin Family, it was still a powerful cultivation family that had many capabilities, and if Damian truly was going to beco the next family head, in the eyes of Mason, he was a great asset.
Both had had an eye on each other and knew of each other's exploits and goals, and since they both aligned and could benefit each other, it was an easy alliance to form.
They t up in a restaurant, both with disguises on, and agreed that if they both assisted each other in becoming the family heads of their families, they would form an official alliance between the families.
With that alliance, they would share knowledge, power and resources and aim to take out the rest of the families in New York, just like the large cultivation families had done to Elizabeth's in the past.
Neither of them were truly loyal to each other, but they both knew that and it was the mutual understanding that made their alliance so strong. As long as they both benefited each other and helped each other elevate in power, wealth, and status, there was no issue.
However, they both knew that it was inevitable that they would have to get rid of each other eventually to keep everything they had worked for together. But until then, they were allies.
Mason told Damian most of the things about the current state of the Epstein Family, while Damian did the sa about the Maxwell Family.
After that Damian and Martha were given the invite to the three man battle and Damian was quite sure and had told Mason, that Angela, Wayde and another guy were probably working with Cole.
There would be no other way for Angela and her companions to achieve their target, and if they weren't working, they weren't a threat in the slightest.
Adam needed to report back to Angela and Wayde, and for so reason was feeling anxious. At Cole's current level of combat prowess, he would find it almost impossible to win against Mason. The two that he chose to support him would be preoccupied with the other two opponents and Cole wouldn't be able to hold out for long against Mason alone.
However, Adam thought of sothing that might solve that issue.
