Chapter 394: Chapter 394 - Deadly Bargain
The Hawk Isolde that Conrad Schroeder spoke of was almost an entirely different person from the one I had met.
Indeed, evildoers in life often put on kind faces.
"This old bastard, he actually dared to trick me." I narrowed my eyes, a flash of coldness passing across my face.
Conrad Schroeder dismissed it: "Forget it, after all, he is the president of the River North Martial Arts Association, who would want to offend him?"
I shot Conrad Schroeder a look and said: "Because everyone indulges him and allows him to act without restraint, that’s why he’s so unbridled."
"This time, I will make him pay!"
Having said that, I turned to Conrad Schroeder and said: "Send a message, say that if the River North Martial Arts Association does not restore my qi within half a month, bear the consequences."
Conrad Schroeder frowned: "Mr. Raymond, are you serious? After all, he is the president of the Martial Arts Association..."
"So what?" I flung back coldly.
"If just because he is the president of the Martial Arts Association, should I remain silent? What difference then is there between me and those fawners?"
I had long had enough of this kind of situation.
Given what happened, Conrad Schroeder had no choice but to nod: "Alright, Mr. Raymond, I understand."
After Conrad Schroeder left, I began to plan my next trip.
The most important reason I returned to Chuzzle this time was the battlefield I saw last time in Shiglance City.
The concentration of dark energy there was beyond imagination. For me, it was the perfect place for cultivation.
I could no longer improve by relying on my qi energy, so I turned my target to dark energy.
"It would be nice if there were more Grandmasters." I massaged my chin while thinking to myself.
I had devoured the two peak Grandmasters of the Sean family. Their effect was indeed beyond expectation.
You could even say, with just ten Grandmasters, I had the chance of reaching the Enlightenment Stage! That is, to become a Grandmaster in the martial arts world!
Once I reach the Enlightenment Stage, I would not fear any Grandmaster in the world!
No matter if it’s an aristocratic family or a hidden disciple, it would not amount to anything.
This was the confidence of someone with a chaotic body!
Having said that, where would you find so many Grandmasters?
After pondering for a moment, I prepared to leave for Shiglance city the next day.
Night came.
I was lying on the bed, scrolling through my phone like other young people.
Of course, I was not browsing through short videos, but the Martial Arts forum.
Just as I was about to put down my phone and go to sleep at eight o’clock in the evening...
Suddenly, a piece of news exploded on the Martial Arts forum:
An ancient battlefield has been excavated! All the big families are preparing to go treasure hunting together!
This so-called battlefield was exactly the one that I discovered in that village in Shiglance City!
Seeing this news, I suddenly sat up from my bed.
"It’s been discovered?" My face couldn’t help but look a little ugly.
All the big families going together was definitely not good news for me. Especially since the Sean family was involved! With the Sean family’s influence, there would likely be a high possibility of an attack on me!
"Trouble..." With a grave expression, I felt a sense of unease at the bottom of my heart.
But if I just gave up, I was not ready to let go.
After much thought, I still decided to take the risk and go anyway.
If I could force my way through the stairway to heaven, what was there to be afraid of?
What’s more, I controlled Shrinking Ground Into An Inch. Whatever happens, I could still escape.
That night, I did not sleep very well.
Early the next morning, just as I was getting up, a knock on the door could be heard outside.
As soon as the door was opened, I saw a familiar figure: Zendaya Andrew.
"Miss Andrew?" I was slightly surprised as I looked at Zendaya Andrew.
Zendaya Andrew chuckled: "Nice to meet you, Mr. Raymond."
I immediately invited Zendaya Andrew into the room, and then ordered: "Mya, go and pour Miss Andrew a cup of water."
Mya stared at Zendaya Andrew very closely, her eyes even carrying a hint of envy.
"What are you looking at? Go and make some tea." I rolled my eyes.
After sending Mya away, Zendaya Andrew chuckled: "Mr. Raymond, you’ve been making quite a name for yourself lately."
"Don’t make fun of me for being so famous." I waved my hand.
Zendaya Andrew covered her mouth and chuckled: "Mr. Raymond has been too modest, after all, forcing your way through the stairway to heaven makes you the first in history."
That’s actually true, since even Paul Randall failed.
"Miss Andrew, is there something you needed from me?" I asked.
Zendaya Andrew made a light-hearted remark: "Can’t I look for you if I have nothing to do?"
"Let’s, let’s talk about business." I waved my hand.
Zendaya Andrew seriously said: "A battlefield was excavated in Chuzzle, you should know about this news, right?"
I was silent for a moment, then nodded: "To tell you the truth, I was just about to leave."
"Do you know that the Sean family have also sent people?" Zendaya Andrew said somewhat surprised.
I gave a bitter smile: "What can I do about it? This battlefield is extremely important to me, no matter what, I have to check it out."
Hearing these words, Zendaya Andrew said lightly: "Mr. Raymond, I happen to have a way to ensure you’re safe."
"Oh?" I was slightly surprised.
Zendaya Andrew stretched out her hand and a hat appeared in her palm.
This hat looked quite extraordinary, under the sunlight, it exuded a dark green glow.
"Where’s this green hat from?" I murmured.
Zendaya Andrew did not explain but put the hat on her head instead.
The moment she put on her hat, Zendaya Andrew’s face was covered by a light, dense fog.
Underneath this fog, even my eyes could not see Zendaya Andrew’s face!
"What... what is this thing?" I was immediately shocked!
Zendaya Andrew mentioned: "This is a divine artifact I accidentally got from the auction, it might be just what you need."
Upon hearing this, I couldn’t care less about whether it was green or not, I snatched the hat away, saying excitedly: "This is exactly what I need!"
Zendaya Andrew said in a monotone: "Mr. Raymond, I can give you this hat, but I have two conditions."
"Miss Andrew, please state your conditions." I said without hesitation.
Zendaya Andrew chuckled: "First, if we really get anything from the battlefield, I want half."
"Okay, you can even have it all, no problem." I laughed.
After all, my main objective was to break through.
"The second condition..." At this point, Zendaya Andrew’s face suddenly turned grave.
She said coldly: "I want you to help me kill two people."
