It started drizzling again after lunch.After Angeline fell asleep, Jay pushed the door open and went out quietly.At this moment in the living room, Grayson and Storm were guarding at the stairwell whereas Finn was tutoring Baby Zetty.Jay whispered to them, "Don’t let Sis Thirteen out of your sight.""Yes."Jay soon came to Grand Old Master Yorks’ half-mountain villa.Grand Old Master Yorks was surprised by this unexpected visit.“What brings you here, JJ?”Jay stood in front of Grand Old Master Yorks with a sullen face and hastened to say, "Is it true that Uncle Zechariah got his superior martial arts skills from his master? Is it also true that his master’s martial arts skills are way superior?”Grand Old Master Yorks was puzzled by what Jay was trying to say and asked with a bewildered look on his face, "Why are you suddenly asking questions about Zechariah’s master?”Jay said eagerly, "I want to see him, Grandpa."Grand Old Master Yorks laughed. “Are you looking for a
Grand Old Master Yorks raised both his hands as he said, "When the older generation, those with blood on their hands, eventually die, I hope that the younger generation will live an honorable and fair life. I hope that… there’ll be no external forces forcing them to do something that they don't want to do." Jay comforted him. "After we solve the issue involving Mr. Boye, I think your wish can come true." After traveling for a little more, they arrived at a simple-looking courtyard located in the pine forest on the top of the mountain. Grand Old Master Yorks and Jay stood in front of the courtyard. They were about to knock on the door when they heard a strong voice from inside. "Grand Old Master Yorks, why did you bring an outsider with you?" The other party’s voice had a tone of condemnation and complaint. Grand Old Master Yorks felt offended and replied, "What do you mean?! Jay’s my grandson. He’s from the Yorks’ stronghold." "Hmph, to save his son, he commanded the
Jay chuckled. "Master Zack, a lone twig is easy to break, but bundle a few together and they become tough. The right setting is crucial for this plan to work. You may be able to fight against a few thousand soldiers from the Tiger and Wolf Armies. However, if they’re spread out and their troops are increased, you may not be able to fight all of them." Zack kept silent because he knew that what Jay said was justified. Zack sneered, "Since you’re aware of this, what do you need me for? As long as you strategize the Tiger and Wolf Armies well, the military intelligence division will crumble before you. But you’re being selfish. You moved the Tiger and Wolf Armies to the military intelligence division’s base to protect your son. The Yorks’ stronghold is weak in their defense now, so you need me to comfort the public. This way, they won’t make any complaints." Jay's smiling face turned gloomy in an instant. "My son, Baby Robbie, did set out with 5,000 elite soldiers...." Zack wa
Grand Old Master Yorks glared at Master Zack and said angrily, "You somehow cheated Jay and got him to be your apprentice. You, you, you... are too cunning. Tell me honestly, did you already know that my baby grandson was coming and deliberately waited by the King’s Seal for him?" Master Zack smiled and said, "Heaven’s secrets must not be revealed to mere mortals." Grand Old Master Yorks stared at Master Zack angrily and muttered, "Didn’t you have a bone to pick with my precious grandson? Why do you want him as your apprentice?" Master Zack looked at Jay and said, "I like his righteous attitude." Grand Old Master Yorks teased him, saying, "Didn’t you just say that he’s selfish?" Master Zack said a little awkwardly, "Ahem, that's a misunderstanding." After Grand Old Master Yorks vented out his anger, he slowly accepted that Jay was now an apprentice to Master Zack. It was not the worst thing that could happen. Grand Old Master Yorks knew that Jay had no intention to
All of a sudden, Jay held Angeline's hand tightly. He then hugged her, gently patted her on the back, and said, "Angeline, don't worry." "I'm not worried," Angeline answered. She forced herself to calm down. She did not want to add to Jay’s burden.... Baby Robbie and the Corvettes left in dozens of large ships and started their journey to the south. Seven days later, their ships finally reached their destination. After their ships were berthed at the pier, only a small number of people were allowed to take turns to go ashore to buy things in the nearby town every day. Baby Robbie led a few special forces soldiers to the military intelligence division to get some intel. Of course, they remembered to mark the path. This was so that if they were ever in danger, their companions could ensure that reinforcements would be there as soon as possible. Upon infiltrating the military intelligence division, they triggered the defense system. Suddenly, someone sneakily attack
Master Zack was dumbfounded again. Although Jay's trick could lead to an unexpected reaction, it would be an extreme test for Jenson. If he slipped even slightly, Jenson would be in great trouble. Suddenly, Master Zack was worried about Jenson’s safety. He thought to himself, ‘Is the child still alive?’... Military intelligence division. As soon as Monster returned to the military intelligence division, he went straight to Baby Robbie's room. Jenson was paying full attention to the Nine Paintings. When he suddenly saw Monster, Jenson hid the consternation in his eyes. He stood up and gave Monster a big wide smile. He said sweetly, "Foster Father." Monster had a cold expression on his face and stared at Jenson suspiciously. "So alike… The two of you look so alike," Monster said. The child he saw outside the military intelligence division on Mount Pearl looked exactly the same as the one in front of him.At that moment, Monster understood that Jay had giv
Monster looked at the other eight paintings and they corresponded to the terrain he had surveyed for the past few days. Unable to find any mistakes, his suspicion toward Jenson somewhat diminished.“Can you remember it?”Jenson nodded. “Don’t worry, Foster Father. I remember it well. I can recall any place I’ve been to, so it’ll come up once I give it a nice long thought.”Monster touched his head with relief and said, “Alright. Be sure to hand it to me before eight o’clock tonight.”“Yes.”After Monster left the room, Jenson sat on the stool and started drawing again.Suddenly, a weak chirp was heard as if the circuit was deliberately cut off. Jenson’s body froze, and he proceeded to turn around. That was when he saw Baby Robbie crawling along the circuit on the wall like a gecko before jumping in front of him.“Did you destroy the surveillance cameras?” Jenson asked.Baby Robbie nodded.Jenson let out a sigh of relief. The warm look he had put on as part of his disguise in
Monster turned the topic around. “However, you have to kill one more person for me.”“Who?” Sis Daisy asked.At this moment, it was as if she had seen the dawn of victory. Hence, she no longer cared how much she would suffer in the darkness just to welcome the new beginning.The darkness was about to pass.Monster’s gentle eyes turned extremely cold. He gritted his teeth and hissed out two words in between his teeth, “Lil Fox.”Sis Daisy jumped away from his arms, her expression appearing a little stunned. Her smiling eyes were now shrouded in ice. “I can’t do it,” she said while shivering. Monster stood up. His whole body’s demeanor looked more upright and gentlemanly than anyone else at this moment. He approached Sis Daisy one step at a time. His voice sounded gentle, yet it could inexplicably send shivers down anyone’s spine.“Iris has been with you for eight years and you managed to kill her. Why can’t you kill Lil Fox?” The gentleness in his eyes was suddenly filled wi
