After the trio left the auction house, they walked outside and went back to their hotel.While they were heading toward the highway entrance, Eira came to a spacious courtyard in the Roselle Lodge.“Master, Howard Rosweld has gotten the Lightning Wood.”A frail but gentle voice sounded from the room. “What about the rest? Who are the people that tried to get the item?”“Howard Rosweld from Private Room No. 5.“Mr. Carl Phillius from Private Room No. 2.“Mr. Gerald Templar from Private Room No. 1.“And a young man that goes by the surname of Yarde in the common seat. He came here with Dr. Ewell.”After Eira finished speaking, the weak voice sounded again. “That’s all?”“Yes.”The woman in the room sighed, “Howard is but an old roughneck that hangs out in the gray area. He doesn’t know anything about the usage of the Lightning Wood. As for Elder Master Phillius and Elder Master Templar, I’m sure they need the Lightning Wood for their own use. What about this Mr. Yarde? Do you k
“Grandmaster…” Zachary’s expression was grim.He did not expect that Darius would come here for Kayson.“Grandmaster Garcia, I’m Zachary—”Darius looked at him and said flatly, “If you want to die, I can grant you your wish right away. “Do you think I can’t do anything to you just because you’re one of the best doctors around here?“The world is big. There are a lot of good doctors out there, and it won’t harm Skyriv losing you.”Zachary was stunned.“It seems to me that you bunch of famous people like to talk big a lot,” said Kayson.Darius squinted as he glared coldly at Kayson. “It’s always said that those who know nothing fear nothing. It seems to me that you’re one of them. So, are you not going to hand over the Bocca Fruit?”“Of course, I’m not. I bought it at the price of $14,000,000,” Kayson said seriously.“Silence, kid! Do you have any idea who you’re talking to?” shouted Master Garland. “He’s Darius Garcia, the most famous fighter of all time!“He can crush you w
Master Garland’s face turned pale, and his knees gave way.Heirein and Tanner were in no good shape either. They dropped to the ground, and they had pissed themselves.“I can’t believe there’s a powerful being like you in Clouspring…” Darius said as he stood up. Although he had sustained quite a lot of damage, he was still able to stand on his feet.Apparently, he was much stronger than Titus.“I lost today! But I’ll come back and avenge my junior one day!”As soon as he finished speaking, he tapped the ground, leaped over the guardrail, and ran away at the top of his speed.Everyone was dumbfounded as they witnessed a powerful fighter like Darius run away like a rabbit.Zachary shouted, “Kayson, you must not let him get away!”“I know,” Kayson said with a faint smile on his face. “He won’t be able to run away from me.”Just as Kayson said, Darius, who was running at the top of his speed, suddenly fell down on the ground.It was only then Zachary let out a sigh of relief. Aft
Edward watched as Kayson and his group double back to the Roselle Lodge.He heaved out a sigh of relief inwardly. Fortunately, Darius had come out and attacked Kayson before he could. If not, he was certain that the person lying dead on the ground would be him.He turned his head around to look at Darius’ dead body. He made a call and sent someone over to take care of his corpse.After that, he looked at Tanner and Heirein and said sternly, “You two are such doom-bringers. I'm not going to help you anymore!”After he finished speaking, he left without turning his head back.At the Roselle Lodge…Howard was waiting for Darius’ return as he sipped on his tea.Although he had sent Darius over to Kayson and his group, it still couldn’t appease his rage. After all, no one had ever had the guts to talk to him like that.‘Zachary? Hmph! Even if you have Zachary on your side, it’s useless. There’s nothing he can do before Grandmaster Garcia!’“I guess it’s about time he…”As soon a
Eira barked out her command, and a figure dashed out from the dark as fast as a leopard.Mr. Draco blocked the attack that was meant for Howard. However, Kayson kept standing firm while Mr. Draco stumbled a few steps back. He seemed to be neutralizing the force of the strike, and his face was red.“Bleergh!”He spat out a mouthful of blood as the attack was too much for him to take.“Ms. Rivera, I’m no match for him…” Mr. Draco’s voice was husky, and his face was filled with pain.“What!?” Eira was dumbfounded.Mr. Draco was a powerful fighter, and she had never seen him lose before!Kayson took a look at Mr. Draco. He was the one who had saved Zachary on behalf of the master of the Roselle Lodge when Zephyr sent his man after him. However, it seemed to him that there was some problem with his battle style.Howard’s pupils constricted, and his face was filled with tears and snot on the ground.“Mr. Yarde! Dr. Ewell! I’m sorry! Please don’t kill me! I shouldn’t have offende
“Ms. Rivera, don’t you think this is overdoing it?” Zachary was swelling with anger. Kayson had to rush back to save Liam. Once the 36th hour passed, Liam would be beyond saving. Liam was holding onto his life purely on Kayson’s acupuncture techniques!Kayson glanced at the bodyguards and said, “Your men can’t stop me. If you want to prevent unnecessary treatment fees, I suggest you get out of the way and let us pass.”Eira wasn’t scared. She was not a person who could be threatened easily. “Then you may try. The reputation of our Roselle Lodge is not for nothing!” Since the problem couldn’t be settled verbally, it seemed like the only way to solve it was to escalate to physical means. To use fists to talk it out!“Hold it!” A worried voice sounded. A tall girl was holding and supporting a pale old man who walked toward them. Eira took a look and became more concerned about the added factor.“Elder Master Templar, how are you?”The pale old man who Eira addressed as Elder Master T
“My illness doesn’t allow me the time to prolong treatment any longer. Even if this young man here is not able to treat me, my condition cannot get worse than it is now,” Gerald explained to Eira.Eira just kept quiet.In the room, Kayson told Gerald to remove his shirt.Rose teared up when she saw the bony back of her grandfather.Zachary noticed the darkish spots on Gerald’s back and asked, “Elder Master Templar, were you poisoned?”Without waiting for Gerald’s reply, Kayson chipped in. “That is not poison, but the effects of negative energy within his body. I’m guessing that when he was fighting with someone, that person hurt him and left some negative energy in his body. Over time, the negative energy destroyed his circulatory system. Once the circulatory system is destroyed, there will be an imbalance in his body, leading to these symptoms over time.”Rose could not control her excitement upon listening to Kayson’s diagnosis. He had diagnosed the issue spot on!Gerald also
Gerald no longer had any doubts about Kayson. Gerald himself was a master-level powerhouse. He could feel his inner energy coursing through his circulatory system. As a fighter, he understood every part of his body. However, he did not know how Kayson did what he did, resulting in all his old injuries recovering fully.He could never ever fully repay this debt!Kayson calmly told Gerald, “I was initially not really inclined to heal you. If you want to show your gratitude, you should thank Mr. Ewell.”Zachary was surprised. He was curious why Kayson would let him take the credit.Gerald replied, “Dr. Yarde, be it you or Dr. Ewell, both of you are my saviors!”Despite Zachary not understanding what Kayson was thinking, he accepted the gratitude humbly. Kayson was preparing for the future. When the day came for him to leave Clouspring, at least he would be able to leave the Wolfendens with a strong support network. At least after he left, nobody would dare harm the Wolfendens.Rose
