Chapter 2265

Author: Chu
"Oh, definitely," Jada replied coolly. "Jouri Yelin is more than what she seemed—she has political ties and answers to a mysterious organization that has resources we can't hope to match. It wouldn't be an exaggeration to say that she's untouchable."

Alda remained perplexed. "In that case, why would she bother with crime?"

"People change." Jada sneered.

Nearby, Frank smiled in wry amusement. "That's enough teasing. Jouri is interested in the spiritron vein, but I can assure you that she's never hurt me. From the looks of things, she's just been tasked with approaching me.

"I'm asking Jada to look into her to examine her connections. We're not suspecting any political parties just yet—I just can't trust them with a precedent like Hector Clet."

Alda sighed in relief—that was better, as she really did not want Frank to stand on opposing sides.

That was when Sally York entered.

"You want to know about Jouri?" she purred, hugging Frank's arm and offering her left cheek. "Kiss me, a

    None of the other thugs dared to say a word and quietly submitted to Rudy."Whoever mouths off after this will get it worse than him!" he bellowed.The thugs all quickly nodded—they were certainly unlucky, running into a reaper like Rudy when they only wanted to earn a living."She's here, boss!" A thug was trembling in his boots even as he led a woman dressed sharply in a suit inside.And it was none other than Fiona Queen, Pax Jaric's former flame!Rudy was at once interested. "Aren't you afraid of me?""Men are pigs, but I'm sure you'd prioritize your career!" Fiona winked at him. "And we're talking about a man as attractive as you. Who could possibly refuse you? And I'm never one to lose out!""Cut the crap," Rudy snapped coolly. "Are you accepting my offer or not?""Of course! I'll do anything as long as it hurts Lugh Frankton."Rudy appeared skeptical. "I don't recall any bad blood between you two."It was not as if Rudy found this unfair for Frank—if anything, Rudy wan

    Jada was livid when she heard that their security guards were hospitalized and had someone call the cops as she headed downstairs to Fiona.As soon as she reached Fiona, she snapped, "Don't think I'm that ignorant! You may have been Pax Jaric's lover, but he was taking steps because he was really worried you'd force him into a shotgun marriage!"As such, the child definitely isn't his, and on top of that, the current owner is Lugh Frankton! Just admit it—who was the one who put you up to this?!"Fiona simply laughed. "Why do you care? Tell Lugh Frankton that he must pay me, or I'll keep harassing him!"Jada was furious. After all, everyone knew that Fiona did not have beef against Lugh and basically had no cause to create trouble.However, allowing Fiona to keep causing a scene in front of their office would affect both their reputation and their business too…"So, you're going to stay stubborn?" Jada growled.Fiona simply responded with action—she snapped her fingers, and her t

    "Mr. Frankton? Fiona Queen says she would like to talk."A burly man who stood well over six feet entered just as Alda finished.It was Higo Soldi, a member of the Cerulean Summit Legion who had the look of a man who was not to be messed with. Like the rest of them, he was now a loyal follower after being told about Frank's feats.In fact, 99% of the Cerulean Summit Legion had chosen to stay. Even if they were not impressed, they stayed because following him offered better prospects.As such, Frank called in some of them, granting them the power of the Shagan spiritron vein to be used when it mattered.Like now, when they had to restrain Fiona."Alright, got it," Frank replied and soon returned to Jaric Mansion.Fiona was certainly a lot less determined now, looking fatigued and scowling after being confined for a day. "I give up. Just let me go.""Let you go? You didn't tell me who sent you!" Frank snapped."I-I don't know his name," Fiona stammered. "But I can take you to hi

    "Exactly. See ya!"Frank waved, lifting the geezer with a formless power. Then, he slammed him violently against the cavern wall, leaving nothing but a bloody puddle!Fiona was horrified. "Are you crazy?! Did you have to kill him?"Frank frowned. "Are you really snapping at me for saving your life?""Not really…"Fiona sighed. "He's a mean bitch, and he deserved it—he killed a lackey just because the lackey rubbed him the wrong way. Shouldn't you question him, though? If he had the balls to mess with you, that means someone had his back. You'd be in more trouble later on if you don't root them out."Frank ignored her and turned to leave.-Twenty minutes later, Jada was nodding at Frank in his office, realizing with a start after being briefed. "That does explain everything…that geezer was trying to steal the power of the Shagan spiritron vein, but knowing that he wouldn't win against you, he got himself a gang of thugs."He then coerced them into starting a protection racket,

    The youth frowned. "When did you become such a coward, Rudy? Are you still really you?""Leave!" Rudy snapped, reluctant to speak with him any further.He wanted the Shagan spiritron vein soon too, but he also knew better than anyone about the true depths of Frank's power.As such, unless he was a hundred percent sure that he could take down Frank, he would not make any moves recklessly."Fine! Have it your way!" the youth snapped. "Just don't get jealous if I reach it before you do.""Nothing to be jealous of if you're dead. Now get out!" Rudy barked.The youth snorted in turn before leaping over the wall, and he left.-Early next morning, Frank had just arrived at the office when Jada placed a photo on his desk, asking, "There's an auction to be held here. Interested?"Frank glanced to see that there would be a painting to be auctioned. "Ask Sylvie. Buy anything she fancies."Jada shook her head. "This is not your ordinary artifact. According to the brochure, it just happe

    Jada nodded. "In that case, I shall be awaiting your revenge… But you should worry about yourself before that, because I can crush you anytime I want!"Incensed, she punched Uran in the stomach, leaving him on his knees and sweating profusely in agony!Everyone around them turned to stare.They knew very well that Uran had just propelled to wealth and influence and was shocked to see Alda attack him anyway.Naturally, they felt bad for Frank—he was going down even before he established himself now!"How dare you! But I'm above you, so I won't stoop to your level! Just you wait… I'll be whipping you into my obedient slave soon enough!"Uran did not expect such utter disrespect from Jada, with her directly attacking him! Since he did not bring that many men with him, and being aware of how good a fighter Jada was, he decided to take the loss and leave.Still, Jada seemed to realize that she had made a mistake and quickly apologized. "Sorry, Mr. Frankton, I couldn't stop myself.

    Ken smiled. "It seems that we haven't been generous enough. Gentlemen?"At his words, two bodyguards appeared at his side, and they had a brief exchange before leaving.On the other hand, Ken gestured for someone to bring Frank and Jada chairs and snacks.Frank and Jada sat down although they were unsure about his intentions, and in ten minutes, the two bodyguards returned with Uran… whom they beat up right in front of Jada and Frank!Everyone was left dumbstruck, as Ken had always been a fence-sitter and never provoked anyone. What had suddenly gotten into him?Moreover, that was Uran Wal! Never mess with a lion in its den, as they say—even if Ken was well-connected, he probably would not escape unscathed.What was worse, Ken was doing this for Frank!Still, it begged the question why—Frank was just a little famous around this town at best, so did Ken really have to go against the bigwigs of the city for him?Either way, it was clear that Frank was more than what he seemed. Th

    The town's bigwigs traded glances—so this was the wealth of the top family in town, throwing a million for a rotten painting like that!However, while most of the bigwigs stayed silent for a second, a hostile voice snapped, "1.5 million!"Everyone turned and saw that it was Uran again.He was quite the tough nut, quickly getting bandaged before returning.And this time, he had twenty bodyguards standing right behind him, clearly here to get payback!While Ken scowled, he asked, "Are you sure about this, Mr. Wal?"It was a trap he laid in place for Frank. While it did carry secrets not known about the Shagan spiritron vein, he had also poisoned it so that the man chosen by the Shagan spiritron vein would lose its power temporarily.Uran's bid, however, would likely discourage Frank from bidding for it.Even if Frank was rich and was the type who did whatever he could to get what he wanted, he was no sucker either—if Uran pushed the bid to a price Frank could not afford, Ken's tr

    Frank snorted. "Alright, I'm hanging up. I'm getting started over here soon.""Yeah. Good luck," Jouri replied.Hanging up, Frank looked up at the waterfall overhead, and then at Skyler, who was standing beside him. "So? Is it time yet?""Almost… Now!" Skyler's eyes were glowing even as she stared at her watch."Alright."Frank looked up just as the skies abruptly darkened. "Ah, there it is—the eclipse."The sun seemed to disappear, and the world was suddenly shrouded in darknesses.And beside him, a stone door imbued with the power of the spiritron vein also rumbled as it parted."Got it!" Frank rushed inside without another word as soon as he saw it."Hmph. I'm surprised that you could reach this place." A cold, wrathful voice resounded inside even before Frank got a hold of his surroundings.Looking up, Frank found a youth in a black cossack and sporting grey-white hair, standing upon a cliff as he looked down on him.Frank chuckled. "Hehe. Like I said, I've come to kill

    Frank narrowed his eyes. "Is that so?'Crane shrugged. "I don't mind giving it to you straight—members of Torrent are actually… Ahem. A part of Torrent himself."Frank paused. "What's that supposed to mean?""You don't get it, do you?" Crane grinned. "Then let me put it to you this way—every member is a clone of Torrent.""A clone?" Frank gasped in realization."Yes," Crane nodded. "That's why I believe that challenging Crane is just suicide. You have no idea how powerful he is—only death awaits you down that path."Frank smirked. "Oh, but I don't think so."Crane rolled his eyes. "Fine, whatever—now listen closely. You will find Torrent in the Mystic Trail, but you would only find that place when the sun and moon coincide, and the entrance is beneath the waterfall south of Horton."As he finished, he snorted coldly. "I have no idea if you can actually do it, but I'm hoping you do kill him… Heh. I'm getting tired of being stuck under his control for so long."Then, waving off

    Frank abruptly turned, immediately noticing one of the Cranes crouching, ready to spring forward and blindside him."Got you!" He laughed."Hah! You fell for it!"Just as Frank swung a punch to pulverize that Crane, he suddenly burst into pus that splashed at Frank's face."Damn it!" Frank took a step back, surprised that the clone's presence was identical to the real Crane, and a trap on top of that!"Die!"The Cranes around him each whipped out a dagger, all of them stabbing at Frank at the same time."Get off!" Frank bellowed, unleashing a shockwave that sent all the Cranes flying across all directions."Frank! Above you!" Skyler suddenly shrieked."Yes! I'm right here!" A strange laughter sounded above Frank just as he wiped the pus off his face.Crane was suddenly directly above him, launching an aerial kick straight at Frank's head, and Frank had no time to dodge!"Die!" Crane's smile curled into a twisted angle as he saw that too.He was very confident with this kick

    "Disgusting…" Skyler murmured through her hand.Despite being skinned and scalped, the women were all still alive and singing to the music that was playing despite their anguish."Talk about a terrible fetish."Frank was scowling too—why were all the members of Torrent such sick deviants? It seemed like his plan to wipe them out was absolutely correct!"So, you killed my clone?"The lanky man on the couch slowly turned to level his bloodshot eyes at Frank.His lips were wet with bed as they curled upward into an eerie smile."Clone?" Frank narrowed his eyes."Hehe. It's a sage art."Crane shrugged as he stood up and wiped the blood off his lips. "It's only natural that you don't understand… Still, you deserve praise. If you can kill my clone, that means you're not just slightly stronger than Ghost."Naturally, the man was none other than the real Crane.Still, as Skyler studied him from a corner, even she could notice the strange twitch of his fingers, and his veins were pro

    Even as Crane ran, he was looking over his shoulder, his heart pounding. "No… I won't win in a one-on-one!"No, as long as I get back to my real body… we can do this together!" He frowned, having seen how Frank sliced off the pinkies of those hood rats. It hence quickly dawned on him that Frank was not just slightly stronger than Ghost, as Torrent had put it!"Almost there!" He gasped when he saw the signboard of Pegasus Showtown in the distance. "As long as I get there and rendezvous with my real body, that brat will lose—"That was when he turned and saw that a shadow had caught up with impossible speed."What?!" Crane's eyes almost popped out in bewilderment. "What speed is that?! Are you kidding—"Even as he spotted the shadow, the shadow turned into a youth with an impassive visage.His fist outstretched, he was clearly punching toward Crane's forehead!"Argh…"Even as Crane looked on, the youth's punch slowed down by tenfold, but his fist kept closing in.Then, whe

    Seeing Skyler sigh, the tattooed thug presumed that his extortion worked.He strode up, grabbing Frank's shoulder. "No one's gonna help you, boy. Pay up, or you're not leaving.""Exactly! You're not getting away!" the crowd of hood rats hollered. "Last chance."Frank's eyes were cold and fixed on Dani, however. "Are you going to intervene? If you do, you can keep that check. If you don't…""Ugh. Fuck off! I don't care!" Dani spat, her expression smug as she folded her arms before her chest. "Who do you think you are to threaten me?!""Exactly! Pay up, and you can leave!""Yeah! Ten grand, at least!""You probably don't know my boss Wyvern, but when he's here, you won't get away with just ten grand!"Even as the crowd closed in, Frank shook his head. "Well, you had your chance. Don't blame me for what happens next.""You're giving us a chance?! Hah! Who—argh!"Even before Dani could finish gloating, Frank was suddenly in front of her, grabbing her viciously by the wrist."Arg

    "Five grand?! Did you hear that?! He just threw five grand!""Must be a rich kid coming here for a secret rendezvous, out of prying eyes? Those types are the easiest mark!""Fuck! And Dani got one of us… It hurts me more than losing at the races!"Frank could hear the buzz around him but ignored it as he strode past the men flanking him and headed toward the street that stank of blood."Stop!" A big tattooed man grinned sinisterly as he intercepted Frank.As his buddies encircled Frank as well, Frank snorted—it seemed that they took his reaction for a sign of weakness and thought that he could be cowed.The tattooed man rubbed his chin as he leered at Skyler's voluptuous figure, chuckling. "Look, boy. I'm short on cash, so let me take a loan. I'll pay you back some other day, how about that?"His friend laughed. "Exactly! You just gave Dani five grand, and we won't ask for more… just four, how about that?"Skyler scowled in turn and glanced worriedly at Frank beside her—was he

    Frank himself had just stepped out of the nightclub when his eyes narrowed."Blood," he murmured, his nostrils twitching."Blood?"Skyler sniffed the air, puzzled. "I can't smell it.""It's from the opposite street… I smell the blood of over a dozen people.""A dozen?!" Skyler did a double take.He could identify the number of people who were killed?! That was just ridiculous!"Come on, let's take a look."Just as Frank led the way toward the source of the stench, a woman suddenly came up, catching Frank off guard and throwing herself into his arms."Hmmm?" He looked down to see that she had thick makeup, average looks, and a rather pudgy belly."Argh! He touched me!" she pointed at Frank and shrieked even before he realized what was happening."What?!" Skyler was staring at the woman too, mystified."Oh, sister! You just didn't see it!"The woman kept hollering, pointing at Frank's face. "Your boyfriend grabbed my ass! Is that how you teach him manners?!""Teach him ma

    Wyvern screamed even as he clutched the stump that was his hand, screaming so shrilly one might mistake his voice as inhuman."Oh, just shut up." The lanky man glowered and launched a kick, reducing Wyvern into puddles of blood and pieces of innards, splattering all around the lobby. "Argh!!!" the devilish lady screamed as she watched the carnage unfolded."Another sound, and you'd end up just like him." The lanky man turned and frowned at her impatiently."Hngh…" The devilish lady promptly clasped a hand over her mouth, tears welling up in her eyes as she trembled."What the hell?!"Outside, Wyvern's lackeys heard the screams and ran inside, looking for him. "Hey, where's Wyvern?!"However, the lobby was too dimly lit for them to notice the blood and guts scattered around the walls, and they only sensed that terrible stench."Hngh…" The devilish lady was too scared to speak, and tears trickled out of her eyes."Fuck!"One of the lackeys strode up and seized the lanky man
