Chapter 447: Chapter 447 Ten Half Step Marquis
Kamden Nick grew more excited by the second, glaring fiercely at me and shouting furiously, "Mason Raymond, if you dare lay a finger on me today, the Great Saint Sect will never forgive you!"
I sneered back, "A half-step Martial Marquis, huh? I’m really curious to see what you’ve got."
Since getting the Venerable Fifth Mountain, I wasn’t sure about my actual strength and needed an expert to test myself against.
Guys like Walton Greer and Joey Ebony couldn’t push me to my limits anymore.
"I recall that Vance Johansson is a half-step Martial Marquis, right?" I narrowed my eyes and said.
Kamden Nick’s face went pale. He stumbled back two steps and yelled, "You... what are you planning to do?"
"What am I planning to do?" I raised an eyebrow, and the next moment, golden light slammed straight into Kamden Nick’s body!
Kamden Nick’s whole body shook from the impact. His body got launched backwards with a "thump."
That palm strike packed serious power, making Kamden Nick spit up blood non-stop!
In that instant, Kamden Nick finally understood the strength gap between him and me!
Terror gripped his heart, but I was already moving forward, my foot glowing as it crashed down hard on Kamden Nick’s chest!
"Crack!"
A mouthful of fresh blood shot from Kamden Nick’s mouth.
His chest caved in several inches, the blow severely damaging his internal organs.
One look showed he was a bloody mess.
"Don’t kill me, don’t kill me!" Kamden Nick panicked.
It had been tough for him to become an elder in the Great Saint Sect. If he died like this, how could he accept it?
"Mason Raymond, listen to me!" Kamden Nick shook with fear.
"I’m an elder of the Great Saint Sect now! And the Great Saint Sect is the biggest sect in all of the North!"
"You’ve got beef with the Sean family, right? With the Great Saint Sect backing you, you could rise up!"
"I can use my elder position and work with you from the inside!"
I stroked my chin and said casually, "I remember you saying something about how being an ordinary person wasn’t so bad, right?"
Kamden Nick froze, his voice trembling, "You... what do you mean?"
I smiled and said, "That’s exactly what I mean."
As soon as those words left my mouth, I kicked straight at Kamden Nick’s dantian.
"Boom!"
A sharp crack echoed from Kamden Nick’s lower belly.
Then Kamden Nick felt intense pain in his abdomen, and his Inner Strength started draining away fast!
"You... you actually crippled me!" Kamden Nick’s eyes went wide!
I copied Kamden Nick’s tone and said casually, "Being a regular person and hanging around might not be so terrible. Wasn’t that what you said?"
"You... You! Mason Raymond, I’ll kill you!" Kamden Nick stared with bulging eyes, baring his teeth and screaming like a madman.
I looked coldly at Kamden Nick and said, "Get lost, and tell Logan Sean for me to have some conscience."
After saying that, I turned and walked away.
Once I was far enough away, Jerry Sean asked with some confusion, "Why didn’t you kill him?"
I smiled and said, "If I killed him, who would go back and tell Logan Sean?"
For me right now, what I wanted was to challenge the Sean family’s authority.
Everyone went back to the Great Hall, and before leaving, these rich guys grabbed my hand and said, "Mason Raymond, don’t forget about the mark inside us..."
I nodded, "Don’t worry, as soon as I get results, I’ll let everyone know right away."
After everyone scattered, I said goodbye to Jerry Sean and left the place.
I didn’t rush to leave Sea City but found a place in Sea City to stay with Zendaya Andrew.
Then I pulled out my phone and sent a message to the Master of the Divine Alchemist Pavilion, asking about Zendaya Andrew’s condition.
Too bad the Pavilion Master had no clue.
"Looks like I’ll have to track down that Walton Greer." I squinted, thinking quietly to myself.
——
The Central Plains, the Greer family.
Walton Greer came home with a dark aura surrounding him.
"Pearson, you’re back? Did everything go smoothly?" Kedrick Greer, the Greer family head, asked suspiciously with a fake smile.
Walton said nothing; he just gave Kedrick an ice-cold stare.
Feeling the killing intent in that look, Kedrick’s face changed instantly, and he automatically stepped back twice.
With a contemptuous snort, Walton turned and headed to his room.
In the main hall, Kedrick looked miserable while the lady next to him couldn’t help but sigh.
"Ever since Pearson had that accident, he’s like a completely different person, sigh..." the lady said with a sigh.
Kedrick said quietly, "If this keeps up, someday he’ll cut ties with us as his parents..."
"It’s all our fault... we pushed him too hard, and now he doesn’t even acknowledge us..." The lady couldn’t help but cover her face and cry softly.
Kedrick stayed quiet.
Looking back, they’d rather Pearson lived as a normal person.
In his room, Walton’s face was dark, and the rough voice inside his body was going crazy.
"The Dragon Spirit... Mason Raymond actually took the Dragon Spirit!" Walton roared angrily.
"No matter what, I have to kill Mason Raymond! I have to!" the rough voice echoed.
With a grim expression, Walton asked coldly, "Now that Mason Raymond has the Divine Dragon Power, with my current strength, I can’t touch him unless I reach the half-step Martial Marquis level."
"Go into isolation." The rough voice spoke again.
"Go to the Hydrating Tower in Summers, I’ll help you reach the half-step Martial Marquis level as fast as possible..."
Hearing this, Walton nodded slightly.
——
Only two months remained until September 9th.
But news about Vance Johansson kept showing up on the Martial Arts Forum these days.
"Word is that Vance Johansson, the Johansson family young master, easily beat three half-step Martial Marquis!"
"According to expert analysis, Vance is expected to become number one among Pyro’s younger generation!"
"The Capital City Martial Arts Association sees Vance’s potential and has invited him to join the Association."
"In the coming days, Vance will challenge the veteran half-step Martial Marquis, Mr. Brice Madron!"
When this news broke, the entire Martial Arts Forum went into shock!
"Vance challenging Brice Madron? Isn’t Brice a legend for many years?"
"I heard that in his prime, Brice was so strong that Ignacio Richard and Paul Randall couldn’t even keep up!"
"So Vance’s already at that level? Mason Raymond’s in trouble."
"Isn’t Mason Raymond already a cripple? He’s not worth talking about anymore."
After seeing the discussion on the Martial Arts Forum, I didn’t say a word.
"This Vance sure is making noise lately," I said, touching my chin.
Even though I now had the Venerable Fifth Mountain and Divine Dragon Power, nobody could promise that the Johansson family didn’t have even more powerful magical artifacts.
Plus, I wasn’t sure if I could hold my own against a half-step Martial Marquis.
Just then, another piece of news caught my eye:
Overseas news reveals that the Michelle Sect issued a kill order against me, planning to send ten half-step Martial Marquis to execute me!
