Chapter 366: Chapter 366 - Ultimate Betrayal
When Logan Sean spotted the incoming call, his face lit up with a smile.
He looked over at Mabel Sean and spoke with calm assurance, "I’d like to cut a deal with you."
"Deal?" Mabel Sean’s eyebrows drew together, confusion clear on her face as she tried to grasp Logan’s meaning.
Logan Sean grabbed his phone and took the call.
Within moments, a video feed flickered to life on the screen.
The image showed Thor Suzanne with his boot pressed down on Mason Raymond.
Mason Raymond was drenched in blood, his appearance shockingly brutal.
The moment Mabel Sean witnessed this scene, her face went ashen!
She shot to her feet and demanded icily, "What are you planning to do to Mason Raymond?"
Logan Sean let out a chuckle, "Nothing too dramatic, just looking to make an exchange with you."
Mabel Sean fought to keep her panic in check as she asked, "What sort of exchange?"
"I want you to hand over every bit of power you hold!" Logan Sean’s grin turned predatory.
"That includes those eight Grandmasters, plus the Marquis."
"And you’ll give up all your authority within the Sean family."
Logan Sean let the words hang in the air for a moment.
He chuckled softly, "Naturally, you can say no. But if you do, Mason Raymond might not make it, and... your grandfather’s return becomes impossible."
"You!" Mabel Sean’s face flushed with fury, her small frame shaking with rage!
"How vile!" Mabel Sean spat.
Logan Sean smirked, "Mabel, as your uncle, let me share some wisdom - truly powerful people don’t sweat the small stuff. Some folks are simply meant to be sacrificed."
"My grandfather is your father. How can you speak like this?" Mabel Sean couldn’t wrap her head around it.
His own son was actually blocking his father’s resurrection for control of the Sean family!
"Enough chatter. You get three seconds to decide." Logan Sean set the phone down on the table.
Thor Suzanne on the other end was clearly waiting for Logan Sean’s orders.
"1." Logan Sean started his countdown.
"2."
Right as Logan Sean was about to say "three," Mabel Sean declared coldly, "Fine, I’ll do it. What do you need from me?"
Logan Sean’s smile was barely there, "Simple enough, just work with me, and he lives."
"Agreed." Mabel Sean swallowed her fury and nodded.
Logan Sean immediately commanded, "Have all your experts leave the room."
These experts represented Jerry Sean’s years of careful cultivation.
Following Mabel Sean’s command, they filed into the study.
They all positioned themselves behind Mabel Sean, clearly waiting for her orders.
Logan Sean said casually, "Mabel, I need them to walk voluntarily into the Capital City Martial Arts Association’s prison."
"What?!" Mabel Sean bolted upright from her chair.
She glared at Logan Sean with fury, "Isn’t that going way too far?"
"Just tell me yes or no." Logan Sean took a drag from his cigar and spoke casually.
Mabel Sean went quiet for a long moment.
These people represented Jerry Sean’s life’s work and showed unwavering loyalty to the Sean family!
"Looks like you’re having second thoughts." Logan Sean’s eyes narrowed dangerously.
He picked up his phone and spoke to Thor Suzanne on the screen, "Thor Suzanne, new orders - kill Mason Raymond right now and smash his spatial magic artifact!"
"Yes, sir!" Thor Suzanne shouted from the other end.
"Stop!" Mabel Sean couldn’t take it anymore.
She drew in a deep breath, spun around, and faced the nine people standing behind her.
"I’m so sorry for putting you in this impossible position," Mabel Sean said, her voice heavy with regret.
"If I get the chance, I swear I’ll get you out," the guilt was thick in Mabel Sean’s words.
The nine exchanged glances and bowed deeply, "Miss Sean, no need for apologies. We know this isn’t your fault."
After speaking, all nine men formed a line and bowed to Mabel Sean in unison.
The sight crushed Mabel Sean’s heart, and she couldn’t bear to watch them directly.
Logan Sean chuckled, snapped his fingers, and several people walked into the room from outside.
These people worked for the Capital City Martial Arts Association!
Leading them was none other than Mr. Billy, who they’d encountered at the previous banquet!
"Mr. Billy, please escort them all out," Logan Sean said with a slight smile.
Mr. Billy gave a small bow, "As you command, Mr. Sean."
Then Mr. Billy turned to Mabel Sean and said with a light smile, "Miss Sean, seems like I won’t get to witness Mason Raymond conquer Capital City after all."
After those words, Mr. Billy led the group away from the Sean family estate.
Once they’d gone, Mabel Sean fixed Logan Sean with a cold stare, "Can you release him now?"
"Hold tight, once they’re locked up, I’ll naturally let Mason Raymond go," Logan Sean replied with a faint smile.
Minutes ticked by slowly. After roughly thirty minutes, Mr. Billy sent a text.
"Mr. Sean, we’ve got them all secured," Mr. Billy reported via message.
When he read the message, a sneer twisted Logan Sean’s lips.
"Can you let him go now?" Mabel Sean asked coldly.
Logan Sean answered with a light smile, "Absolutely."
Shortly after, Logan Sean spoke into the phone, "Thor Suzanne, destroy his dantian, then dump him somewhere."
Logan Sean cut the call immediately after finishing his statement.
Mabel Sean’s face went white as a sheet!
She stood there shaking with pure rage!
"Logan Sean, you... you’re absolutely despicable!" Mabel Sean screamed.
Logan Sean responded with a sneer, "I already let him keep his life; what more do you want?"
After saying that, Logan Sean burst into laughter and strode out of the study.
In the study, Mabel Sean stood frozen, her eyes filled with anguish and terror.
She’d never imagined that Logan Sean would go this far!
"Mason Raymond... Grandfather..." Tears streamed down Mabel Sean’s face.
She sank to the floor, quietly beginning to weep.
Suddenly, Mabel Sean seemed to recall something.
She quickly pulled out her phone and sent a text to Mason Raymond.
"Mason Raymond, stay away from Capital City, you have to survive."
Even with his dantian destroyed, as long as he was breathing, that was enough for Mabel Sean.
——
On the other side, I lay on the ground, pain wracking my entire body.
I tried getting up several times, but each attempt ended with Thor Suzanne’s boot slamming into my back.
"Mason Raymond, Mr. Sean’s given his orders. He wants your dantian wrecked and you tossed out like trash," Thor Suzanne said with a cold smile.
I glared up at Thor Suzanne with determination and declared coldly, "You wouldn’t dare!"
"Ha! Let’s see if I dare!" Thor Suzanne roared.
With that, he shifted his fist into an open palm and struck down hard at me!
"Argh!"
I let out a furious roar, my body erupting with incredible power!
I clenched my fist tight and drove it straight toward Thor Suzanne!
"Clang!"
My punch hit his palm like a hammer, sending sharp pain shooting through his wrist!
"Oh? You’ve still got some fight left?" Thor Suzanne’s eyes narrowed.
He sneered, "I’m guessing that was your last burst of strength, right?"
I gasped heavily, my expression deadly serious.
Just like Thor Suzanne said, I’d burned through almost every bit of energy left in my body.
"I absolutely cannot fall here..." I screamed inside my head!
I still had so much left to do!
I had to save Grandmaster Sean, make it to Capital City, marry Mabel Sean!
If my dantian got destroyed, all of that would turn into nothing but empty dreams!
"Quit fighting it, I’ll put you out of your misery now." Thor Suzanne’s body surged with terrifying power as it built up once more!
"Boom!"
The next instant, this crushing force came crashing down toward me!
In that critical moment, a figure appeared in front of me!
