Chapter 731: Chapter 731 Who Killed Mason Raymond
What Watson Thompson said definitely made sense.
Every time the King of Medicine showed up before, it caused a huge stir, never mind the Ten-thousand-year-old Medicinal Materials.
After thinking it over for ages, I decided to tell Guy Noble the next day.
Even if I couldn’t snag the Ten-thousand-year-old Medicinal Materials, I figured the Noble Family would at least throw me some kind of compensation.
The next day.
I wasn’t even awake yet when someone started pounding on the door.
When I opened it, two guys were standing there.
One was York Pauley and Angela Tamara, who I’d run into before in Gyeon City.
The other one was a Military Marquis.
"What the hell are you doing here?" I asked, frowning.
York Pauley gave me this shady smile. "We’re here to help you, obviously. Since our Michelle Sect teamed up with you, it’s only right we lend a hand."
"Help me?" I remembered what Stella Lucas had told me before.
The Michelle Sect had actually sent people to help me get the Ten-thousand-year-old Medicinal Materials, but just York Pauley and Angela Tamara probably wasn’t gonna cut it.
"From now on, you follow my orders," York Pauley said coolly.
He strutted into the villa, looked around, then said sarcastically, "Living in a place like this, you really know how to live it up."
York Pauley and Angela Tamara had been hostile toward me from day one, and now their attitude was even more unpredictable.
I ignored York Pauley’s comment and asked, "How exactly are you planning to help me?"
York Pauley smiled faintly. "Don’t worry about that. Just do what I say, that’s enough."
I snorted. "I don’t think that’s gonna happen."
Hearing this, York Pauley’s eyebrows shot up.
He stood up slowly, staring at me coldly.
"Mason Raymond, you better not get too cocky. Alexa Madron isn’t here to bail you out," York Pauley said icily.
Angela Tamara stepped forward with a sneer. "You killed so many of our people. Alexa Madron might not give a damn, but that doesn’t mean we don’t!"
My eyes narrowed.
These two really were up to no good.
"Get the hell out of here right now," I said coldly, staring at both men and speaking each word clearly.
Hearing this, Angela Tamara stepped forward and shouted, "Let me tell you something, watch your mouth, or don’t blame us for getting nasty!"
York Pauley also smiled faintly. "We might not dare kill you, but we can definitely rough you up a bit."
"Is that right? Then go ahead and try!" I shouted, and my aura suddenly exploded!
York Pauley snorted. "Everyone out there talks about you being some peerless genius, but to me, you’re nothing special!"
"Let me teach this arrogant brat a lesson!" Angela Tamara yelled as his fist burst with blinding light!
His brutal punches whipped up violent winds, and his inner strength erupted!
Of course, I wasn’t about to just stand there. I raised my fist and unleashed the Absolute Beginning Sacred Fist!
Golden light shook the earth as our fists crashed together instantly.
"Boom!"
The terrifying force spread out in all directions with us at the center!
The ground caved in instantly, and the villa took a massive hit, with cracks appearing everywhere!
"Whoosh!"
In the next second, Angela Tamara went flying and his fist was a bloody mess!
As a swordsman, Angela Tamara sucked at hand-to-hand combat.
Seeing this, York Pauley’s brow furrowed slightly.
"Is that all you got?" I sneered.
Angela Tamara jumped up, and with a flick of his palm, a crimson longsword appeared in his hand!
"What the hell’s going on? Can’t a guy take a dump in peace?" the man with the mustache grumbled as he walked out.
Seeing the man with the mustache, York Pauley’s brow furrowed slightly.
"Mason, what happened?" Watson Thompson also came out.
"Three Military Marquis?" York Pauley’s frown deepened.
Just me alone was enough to give them a headache.
If the man with the mustache and Watson Thompson, two more Military Marquis, joined the fight, York Pauley and his crew wouldn’t stand a chance.
So York Pauley pulled back his aura.
He stared at me coldly and said, "Mason Raymond, you do have some skills. But thinking that just you few can get the Ten-thousand-year-old Medicinal Materials? That’s pure fantasy!"
I sneered. "You think you two pieces of trash can get the herbs?"
York Pauley smiled mysteriously. "Our Michelle Sect has been around for years. Of course we have some connections."
"Mason Raymond, you gotta make friends when you’re out in the world. You should know that," York Pauley said smugly.
I raised an eyebrow. "Oh? So you got some backup in Downton City?"
York Pauley snorted but didn’t answer.
He grabbed Angela Tamara and turned to leave.
When they reached the door, York Pauley shouted, "Since Mason Raymond won’t accept our help and injured someone, we can only go."
Looking at York Pauley’s attitude, I couldn’t help but want to laugh.
"What the fuck are you yelling about? Don’t worry, I won’t rat you out to Alexa Madron," I sneered.
York Pauley didn’t say anything else, just turned and left the villa.
"Damn, such a nice place got trashed," the man with the mustache complained.
I frowned too.
After all, the house wasn’t mine, and it wasn’t right to have wrecked it.
I pulled a bank card from my pocket and said quietly, "Later, let’s get some cash and pay Guy Noble back."
——
After York Pauley and Angela Tamara left, their faces turned cold.
"Old Tamara, is your hand alright?" York Pauley asked.
Angela Tamara gritted his teeth. "It’s not that bad, but I can’t swallow this humiliation!"
"When I first made my name, Mason Raymond probably wasn’t even born! Now some punk is stepping all over us - how can I stand it!"
York Pauley said coldly, "My friend died because of Mason Raymond. I want to kill him even more than you do!"
Angela Tamara looked at York Pauley with furrowed brows. "But Alexa Madron told us not to clash with Mason Raymond. And... Mason Raymond seems useful to the organization."
York Pauley’s eyes narrowed, chuckling coldly. "This is Downton City! The edge of Pyro! Once the Ten-thousand-year-old Medicinal Materials show up, there’s definitely gonna be a huge fight!"
"When that happens, who’s gonna know who killed Mason Raymond?"
Angela Tamara suddenly got it.
He looked at York Pauley and said, "But we can’t do this ourselves."
"Don’t worry," York Pauley replied with a faint smile.
"I got plenty of connections in Downton City. Several foreign powers around here have good relationships with our Michelle Sect."
Angela Tamara narrowed his eyes. "Alright, I’ll leave it to you."
——
Back in the villa, I frowned slightly.
I had some doubts about what Alexa Madron was really up to.
He knew York Pauley and Angela Tamara didn’t like me, so why send them? What was his angle?
As I was thinking this over, the door got pushed open.
Then I saw Guy Noble walking in with some other people.
"Damn it, who the hell trashed my villa like this?" Guy Noble looked at the wrecked room and couldn’t help getting pissed.
