Chapter 756: Chapter 756 A Martial Saint Will Appear
Ms. Zackary stood with her back to me, hands folded behind her, face calm.
I looked at Ms. Zackary in front of me and sneered, "Trying to frame and trap me?"
"Hehe, I’m just telling the truth. Who do you think everyone will believe, me or you?" Ms. Zackary said with a smug expression.
I didn’t bother arguing with her and asked directly, "Just tell me, what’s the real reason you went out of your way to find me in the middle of the night?"
Ms. Zackary’s eyes narrowed, and a strong murderous spirit burst around her.
"Of course, to teach you a lesson!" Ms. Zackary said coldly.
"Teach me a lesson?" I was somewhat surprised.
"What, so your lackey Bert Mercer didn’t work out, and now you’re planning to take matters into your own hands?"
Ms. Zackary didn’t bother hiding it and said indifferently, "That’s right."
"Tsk, you don’t have much faith in that beast you raised, do you? So persistent in wanting to take me down." I sneered.
Ms. Zackary squinted and said, "Leticia cannot lose; no one can beat him! I will make him unbeatable!"
I casually touched my ears and said mockingly, "Are you planning to cripple me or kill me?"
"I just need to injure you." Ms. Zackary grinned, revealing her yellow teeth.
A chilling and sinister aura enveloped the entire forest, the intense murderous spirit morphing into a fierce wind, cutting like a sharp blade, causing immense pain.
"You heard that, right? Did you record it?"
Just as Ms. Zackary was about to make her move, I suddenly pulled out my phone.
The voice of the man with the mustache came from the other end: "Don’t worry, I have it all recorded."
Hearing this, Ms. Zackary’s face changed drastically!
She flicked her finger, instantly shattering my phone.
"No use, I was afraid you might destroy my phone, so I had the call ready with a friend." I grinned, revealing a bright smile.
"Old Thing, you’re getting on in years, you probably don’t understand modern high-tech gadgets, do you?"
Ms. Zackary was enraged! Her wrinkled face trembled non-stop!
I looked at Ms. Zackary coldly and said, "If you don’t want everyone to see your true colors, you’d better not try any tricks with me."
"Otherwise, I promise to disgrace you and the beast you raised!"
Ms. Zackary glared at me, gritting her teeth and saying, "You little beast, I’ll tear you to pieces!"
I sneered, "Don’t worry, the moment I step into being a Martial Saint, you’ll be the first one I kill."
After saying that, I turned and left.
——
Ms. Zackary stared fixedly at Mason’s retreating form, her body filled with strong murderous intent.
Watching Mason’s receding figure, Ms. Zackary trembled all over.
But in the end, she did nothing, allowing Mason to leave her sight.
She never imagined that her carefully planned scheme would be so easily unraveled.
——
The next day.
The man with the mustache and I walked together through the streets of the Martial Arts Academy.
"There’s a Mystic Realm up ahead." I pointed to the Mystic Realm I had previously felt.
The man with the mustache mumbled, "How do you know?"
"I can’t explain it to you right now." I gestured.
As we were talking, we ran into Ms. Zackary and Leticia head-on.
They seemed to have come looking for me on purpose, blocking my way with one step forward.
The man with the mustache quickly hid behind me, looking cautious.
I, on the other hand, looked at the two expressionlessly.
"What is it, do you need something?" I asked coldly.
Ms. Zackary squinted and said, "Little beast, you’d better not leak that video."
I couldn’t help laughing at this.
"What, you want to probe for information?" I said with a hint of mockery.
Ms. Zackary’s old face darkened, and her skinny claws clenched involuntarily.
Just as I said, Ms. Zackary was terrified that the video would be leaked.
"Don’t worry, as long as you don’t come looking for trouble again, I guarantee the video won’t be circulated." I said indifferently.
Leticia took a step forward, his pitch-black eyes staring coldly at me.
"If I win, you destroy the video, agreed?" Leticia asked.
I raised an eyebrow and smiled, "Of course."
Leticia said coldly, "You’d better keep your word."
"Don’t worry, you won’t have a chance to win." I said lightly.
After tossing those words, the man with the mustache and I prepared to leave.
"The one who recorded last night, it was you, right?" At that moment, Ms. Zackary suddenly looked at the man with the mustache with a chilling gaze.
The man with the mustache’s face darkened, and he braced himself to say, "Nonsense, I was asleep early last night."
"Hehe," Ms. Zackary sneered.
"You’d better be careful; picking the wrong person can get you killed."
The man with the mustache coughed dryly, thinking in his mind, "I’ve already offended her, so why should I save face for her?"
With that thought, the man with the mustache straightened his back and said, "Old beast, you think The Master is afraid of you?"
Ms. Zackary’s face instantly darkened, and she opened her mouth to speak when her phone suddenly rang.
After answering the call, Ms. Zackary quickly adopted a respectful demeanor.
"Alright, I’ll be there right away." Ms. Zackary nodded and bowed.
Ending the call, Ms. Zackary pointed at the man with the mustache and me and said coldly, "Let’s see how long you can be so arrogant."
After tossing those words, Ms. Zackary hurriedly left.
As I watched Ms. Zackary’s receding figure, my brow furrowed slightly.
"Could it be... a call from the higher-ups?" I suddenly guessed something.
Just as I suspected, the call indeed came from the higher-ups.
And the content of the call was to summon Ms. Zackary to a meeting.
——
In the meeting room.
The eight senior officials were hidden in the darkness.
In the massive meeting room, only Ms. Zackary’s face could be seen.
Even Phoebe Billy was not qualified to attend this meeting, which indicated its importance.
"Welcome back, Senior Officials." Ms. Zackary said respectfully.
There was silence in the room. After a while, someone spoke, "One of our people has just deduced heavenly secrets and received a prophecy."
Ms. Zackary remained silent, waiting for them to continue.
"This prophecy concerns Mason Raymond." Another voice emerged.
Hearing this, Ms. Zackary suddenly looked up.
She exclaimed, "What... what kind of prophecy?"
"According to the heavenly secrets, a Martial Saint will appear in this world," the voice of a senior official came from the darkness.
Ms. Zackary’s face changed, and she quickly asked, "Could it be... Mason Raymond is that Martial Saint?"
"That’s right."
"According to the prophecy, Mason Raymond will become that Martial Saint."
Ms. Zackary’s face turned pale in an instant.
She knew all too well what it meant for a Martial Saint to appear in this world.
