Xander was muttering to himself when he suddenly heard a chuckle. He snapped his head back only to see Kayson.“You— Why haven’t you left!?”Kayson looked at him with a smirk. “Mr. Campbell, you still want me dead, as expected.”Xander turned pale. ‘He heard my monologue!?’“I-I…”Kayson asked flatly, “Mr. Campbell, I don’t need to force you in some other ways, right?”Xander slumped to the floor with an ashen face and came clean about a lot of things.Kayson was surprised after listening to him, not expecting a small Clouspring was actually this complicated.Xander was actually Joseph’s man!Kayson could still remember that Xander claimed that he wanted to rise to the top of Clouspring when he tried to recruit him. Not many must have known this secret.“Joseph has a huge secret. You’ll be my spy from now on.”Kayson tore his sleeve and executed the Killing Curse right before Xander. The latter was in pain all over as he coughed blood, making him stare at Kayson in terror.
While Kayson was on his way back, he called Michael.“Uncle Michael, can we handle Joseph?”Michael was stunned when he heard what Kayson said. “What? It won’t be easy. If possible, it’s better to come up with some plan first.”Kayson frowned. Just as he had expected, it wouldn’t be easy. The reason he had asked was that after he had gotten rid of the Allens, Michael had told him that he shouldn’t kill all of them.This was because he did not want anything to happen while he was in the process of annexing the Allens’ property.After all, the total market value of the Allens’ property was about $45,000,000,000. They had quite a lot of companies under their name, so there were quite a few offers, and a little shake-up could have unimaginable consequences.As for Joseph, he was the richest man in Clouspring, so his total net worth could only be higher than that of the Allens.Michael said, “Kayson, there are people from Skyspring supporting Joseph, so you need to be extra careful.
After a short while, Xander and his group entered the living hall.Just as Bradley was about to snarl at Xander, Xander bowed deeply before Yulene.“Ms. Walton, I’ve come to ask for your forgiveness. I hope you can forgive me for trying to poison you.”The Waltons were dumbfounded. They had thought Xander was there with bad intentions. They had never imagined that he would come to apologize to them! The corner of Bradley’s mouth quivered, and it took him a lot of effort to calm himself down.“What is this all about, Mr. Campbell?”Xander straightened his body and said, “Mr. Walton Sr, I’ve come to ask for your forgiveness. Here is $150,000,000. It’s a small token of my remorse, and I hope you can take it.”Bradley and the others were still unable to come back to their senses. There was only one question in their heads—what the hell was wrong with this guy?After Xander told them everything, they realized this was Kayson’s doing. He had helped them once again, and Bradley was f
Kayson’s figure disappeared, and by the time he reappeared, he was 32 feet away from his original spot. Since he could only move in a straight line, he rammed straight into a tree. It took him a lot of effort to pull himself out of the trunk. His face was filled with sawdust as he mumbled begrudgingly, “The amount of inner energy this skill consumes is terrifying!”He had only moved 30 feet or so, yet he had used up 10% of his inner energy.In other words, he could only move about 3,000 feet even after he used up all his inner energy?Even though it might sound impressive, 3,000 feet was not enough to pull himself away from danger if he really ran into a powerful fighter.“This skill is rather useless to me at the moment… If I become a smasher, maybe I could move 16,000 feet in the blink of an eye.”The sky got dark by the time he had practiced for two hours. Kayson washed the dust off his face, and just when he was about to return to the Wolfenden mansion, Zachary called him.
Kayson frowned slightly and said, “Can you take me there, Captain Whitman?” “Yes, I can… But it’s a little bit late now, so…”Kayson smiled. “Let’s go there tomorrow.”“Okay!” Captain Whitman said with a nod.After all, Kayson had saved his life, so he was more than willing to do him this favor.Captain Whitman’s full name was Evan Whitman. He had been a police officer for 20 years, so he was very experienced. Zachary invited Kayson to have dinner with them, and he only returned to his house after he finished his dinner.Hugh was waiting to play chess with him. As they were playing chess, Hugh asked, “Kace, you haven't been eating at home much lately. What have you been working on recently?”Kayson replied, “Well, I’ve just been running errands. The family of a worker got into trouble after the incident at the construction site last time.”Hugh nodded and said, “By the way, it has been some time since you and Sade got your marriage certificate. I plan to hold a wedding for y
Although the floor was hard, sleeping on the floor was more comfortable for Kayson. After all, whenever he was sleeping on the bed with Sadie, he always worried that he might wake her up each time he turned his body around.The next morning, he asked Sean for time off and went to Bwell Therapeutic.Evan had been waiting for him. However, this time, he was accompanied by a young man around 25 or 26 years old.The young man was dark-skinned and had fierce-looking eyes. At first glance, he did not look like a police officer, but more like a criminal.“Mr. Yarde.” Evan walked up to Kayson and greeted him.Kayson replied with a smile on his face, “Captain Whitman.”Evan then proceeded to introduce the man standing next to him. He was his disciple, and his name was Silvan Canfield.Silvan seemed to be looking down on Kayson as he said indifferently, “Hi.”Kayson nodded at him before turning to Evan. “Shall we get going?”Evan nodded. Then, they drove one of their SUVs to the pond
Silvan could not help saying, “Evan, this kid’s making things up. He just took a look here and wanted us to contact Admiralporium. You’ll be penalized!”Evan snapped out of his daze as well. Silvan was right. Kayson had just taken a look without doing anything.Kayson told them indifferently, “Just inform them. I’ll be responsible if there’s an accident.”“Will you even be able to take responsibility—”“Shut up!” Evan scolded and glared at his mentee before walking off to the side to make the call.He came back a while later and told Kayson, “Admiralporium will send its people within three hours.”“Please get some water pumps and excavators here, Captain Whitman,” Kayson asked.Evan got to work without a second thought and called Admiralporium without any hesitation. How hard was it to get some water pumps and excavators over?In less than three hours, five to six people came over.Evan and Silvan went up to them, only for the head of the group to walk past them directly to go
Silvan looked awkward as Evan pressed his head down to apologize to Kayson.“Mr. Yarde, I’m sorry!”That stunned Kayson momentarily before he smiled. “It’s not so serious. There’s no need to apologize. But of course… I’ll accept it since you’ve already apologized.”He then asked, “You’re one of Skyspring’s Killicks?”Silvan paused and nodded. “Yeah… How did you know?”“I beat up someone named Harold Killick,” Kayson answered.Silvan was speechless before he replied drily, “That’s… my younger cousin. My parents aren’t exactly big among the Killicks. While I’m a Killick, I’m not like a core family member.”Kayson chuckled. “So you want to achieve something and go further to gain the Killicks’ acknowledgment?”Silvan was astonished. “You can see this too?”“You wear your impatience and eagerness to earn merit on your sleeve,” Kayson answered.It only made Silvan more awkward. Kayson had actually beaten up Harold, and he himself remained unscathed—and he knew people from Admiralp
