Chapter 500: Chapter 500 A Show Of Sincerity
Replace the Great Saint Sect within a month?
This was no easy task. The Great Saint Sect had extremely strong connections, plus they had the Marquis backing them.
I fell silent for a moment, then stood up and said, "Alright, I agree."
This surprised Steve Barnes. He hesitated for a moment, then laughed loudly and said, "Good! Then it’s a deal!"
"It’s a deal." I shook hands with Steve Barnes.
For me, taking action against the Great Saint Sect was just a matter of time.
As for their connections, they were already at odds with me.
So I had nothing to worry about.
Under Steve Barnes’s arrangement, I got in touch with the journalists from Sea City.
Having arranged everything, the Great Saint Sect and I agreed on the time and place for our first meeting and negotiation.
——
The next day, in the early afternoon,
Elder Adrianne and Atkinson Samson were waiting early in a club in Honua Chuing City for Mason Raymond’s arrival.
"I didn’t expect Mason Raymond to actually agree," Atkinson Samson said coldly.
Elder Adrianne laughed, "Sect Master, after all, Mason Raymond is still young, and his thoughts are too naive."
"If I’m not mistaken, he must have proposed some excessive conditions."
Atkinson Samson sneered, "No matter what conditions he puts forward, I will not agree. As long as he dares to come, I will make sure he never leaves!"
He knew that Mason Raymond possessed the Shrinking Ground Into An Inch technique, so Atkinson Samson had set up a formation in advance.
Within this formation, no one could escape the room!
As time passed by, more than ten minutes later, finally sounds came from outside the door.
"He’s here!" Elder Adrianne quickly stood up, slightly excited.
A trace of anger flashed across Atkinson Samson’s face.
He forcibly suppressed the anger in his heart and then waved his hand: "Open the door."
Elder Adrianne rushed to the door, opened it, and sure enough, Mason Raymond was standing at the entrance.
——
"Mason Raymond! You really dare to come!" Seeing me for an instant, Elder Adrianne couldn’t help but clench his teeth.
I scoffed, "What do I have to fear?"
Before Elder Adrianne could speak, a group of reporters suddenly appeared behind me.
The reporters carried video cameras and were quickly approaching Elder Adrianne.
Elder Adrianne’s face changed, and he said coldly, "What is the meaning of this?"
I smiled faintly, "I’m afraid you’ll try to cheat, so I contacted the reporters in advance."
"Oh, right, let me remind you that they are reporters under the Barnes family."
Elder Adrianne’s face became even uglier, as he hadn’t expected me to contact the reporters in advance.
"Mason Raymond, you’re ruthless!" Elder Adrianne said coldly.
After tossing out those words, Elder Adrianne stepped aside to make room.
I strode into the room, and upon entering, I saw a tall man with a white beard.
This man was none other than Atkinson Samson!
The moment our eyes met, Atkinson Samson’s face darkened.
A strong murderous spirit erupted from his body. The cold aura instantly lowered the room’s temperature by several degrees!
"Mason Raymond...!" Atkinson Samson suddenly stood up, seemingly unable to contain his murderous intent.
I remained calm. I walked to the opposite side of Atkinson Samson and sat down with a thud.
"You must be the sect master of the Great Saint Sect, huh? Since you are interested in negotiating with me, show me some sincerity," I said indifferently.
Atkinson Samson narrowed his eyes and laughed loudly, "Mason Raymond, for all these years, my Great Saint Sect has never been so humiliated!"
"Killing my disciples and destroying my sect, Mason Raymond, what crimes should you bear!"
I sneered, "If it weren’t for your Great Saint Sect bullying people first, how could I have killed indiscriminately?"
Atkinson Samson squinted his eyes and said, "You’re the first one to dare to challenge my Great Saint Sect."
"Well, after all, one has to look at the owner’s face when beating a dog," I said with a seemingly mocking smile.
Atkinson Samson was no fool, and he could naturally hear the hidden meaning in my words.
He sneered, "Mason Raymond, I must admit I’m surprised that you dared to show up today."
"Negotiate with my Great Saint Sect? Are you worthy?"
I narrowed my eyes and said coldly, "Atkinson Samson, are you going to go back on our agreement?"
"Hahaha!" Atkinson Samson couldn’t help but laugh out loud.
He was about to speak when Elder Adrianne suddenly approached from the side.
He leaned into Atkinson Samson’s ear and whispered, "Sect Master, those reporters are from the Barnes family in Sea City."
Hearing the Barnes family’s name, Atkinson Samson’s eyes narrowed slightly.
"Mason Raymond, tell me, what are your conditions?" Atkinson Samson asked coldly.
I didn’t bother with politeness either. I looked at Atkinson Samson and said, "First, I want the Capital City Martial Arts Association to release the Pavilion Master."
Atkinson Samson remained silent, waiting for me to continue.
"Second, I want two people," I continued.
Atkinson Samson sneered, "Oh? Which two people?"
I took a deep breath and said coldly, "The first is Walton Greer, and the second..."
At this point, I paused. I suddenly raised my finger, pointing at Elder Adrianne!
"The second one is Elder Adrianne!"
In my speech, my voice became cold.
All of this had started because of Elder Adrianne, more importantly, he had attempted to act indecently towards the Pavilion Master!
If I didn’t kill him, I would never give up!
Elder Adrianne, who had been standing on the side, became anxious. He quickly looked at the sect master and said, "Sect Master, you must not agree to his request!"
Elder Adrianne knew full well the consequences of falling into my hands, so he quickly stood behind the sect master, his face filled with fear.
Atkinson Samson remained silent, only coldly looking at me.
After a moment, Atkinson Samson grinned and said, "You think that bringing a few reporters can threaten me, right?"
My eyebrows furrowed, and I said coldly, "What do you mean?"
Atkinson Samson shouted angrily, "Even if they were reporters from the Barnes family, so what? I, Atkinson Samson, fear nothing!"
Before his words fell, Atkinson Samson suddenly raised his hand!
I saw Atkinson Samson’s big hand clenched, and those several reporters were suddenly crushed into a bloody pulp!
My face changed instantly!
I hadn’t expected Atkinson Samson to completely disregard the Barnes family’s background!
Looking at the reporters lying in a pool of blood, my face darkened somewhat.
Atkinson Samson slowly stood up, his hair flew wildly, and murderous aura surged!
"Mason Raymond, even if the King of Heaven himself came, you would still die here!" Atkinson Samson said coldly.
