Chapter 811: Chapter 811 The Price Of Failure
"She...she actually escaped!" Cooper Hill’s face showed clear annoyance.
This slap in the face came way too quickly!
As for Leigh Simpson, who stood close to me, he was so stunned that blood spurted from his mouth!
I stared coldly at Cooper Hill and said, "I don’t have time to waste on you right now, get lost!"
Cooper Hill’s expression turned icy as he replied, "Mason Raymond, Mabel Sean matters greatly to us, and I’ll never let this go!"
"Then you can drop dead!" My rage exploded instantly, and I launched a punch!
Cooper Hill’s expression shifted dramatically; my punch came too fast, leaving him no room to dodge. He could only steel himself and throw up his fist to counter!
"Clang!"
My incredible power burst forth in that instant!
Cooper Hill’s fist shattered immediately!
Like a wild man, I pressed forward again.
I wielded the Absolute Beginning Sacred Fist, my attacks straightforward and vicious!
Cooper Hill’s technique crumbled completely!
Watching Cooper Hill get pushed back repeatedly, everyone couldn’t help but gasp!
He was a Half-step Martial Sage, yet he was getting beaten this badly?!
"Boom!"
Soon, my fist connected with Cooper Hill’s chest!
Cooper Hill took the hit hard, blood spraying out as he staggered backward!
"No, I can’t keep this up, or I’ll die here!" Cooper Hill muttered under his breath.
Right then, fear started creeping in!
A Half-step Martial Sage, scared of a Marquis - it was absolutely unthinkable!
"Boom!"
While he hesitated, my fist came at him again!
Cooper Hill scrambled to dodge, and my punch hit the ground, instantly shattering the entire surface!
"I can’t continue like this, I have to get out!" Cooper Hill whispered.
Then Cooper Hill yelled, "Everyone, fall back now!"
After shouting that, Cooper Hill spun around and bolted!
Being a Half-step Martial Sage, his speed was naturally incredible.
I didn’t have time to mess around with him - the priority now was getting Mabel Sean out of here!
"You’re not escaping!"
Right then, I spotted Leigh Simpson trying to run.
I flashed forward and crushed both of Leigh Simpson’s legs with one kick!
Leigh Simpson howled in agony, gritting his teeth as he said, "Mason Raymond, what are you planning? Mabel Sean was rescued by me for you!"
"Whatever the case, without you, I couldn’t have saved Mabel Sean. Considering that, I’ll let your worthless life slide for now." I said icily.
Right after, I grabbed Leigh Simpson and walked off with long strides!
Several people rushed away in formation.
And my appearance looked pretty bizarre.
I cradled Mabel Sean in my arms while also carrying two people in my hands.
One was the blood-soaked Leigh Simpson, the other was a terrified young girl.
I hurried back to the house.
When I got back, the man with the mustache had already returned.
"Mason Raymond, you...you actually pulled it off?!" Seeing Mabel Sean in my arms, the man with the mustache was stunned.
I didn’t have time to waste with the man with the mustache. I tossed Leigh Simpson to him and said, "Get out of here right now, move it!"
The man with the mustache didn’t dare say another word. He quickly stood up, grabbed his stuff briefly, and followed me as we rushed away.
The first place I wanted to head was the Divine Alchemist Pavilion.
I needed the Pavilion Master’s help to treat Mabel Sean’s injuries.

At this moment, Ms. Zackary was walking back with Leticia.
Along the way, Ms. Zackary wore a sweet smile, her eyes filled with affection.
"Leticia, one setback doesn’t mean anything. In my heart, you’re always the greatest," Ms. Zackary said with a smile.
Just as the two were having their loving moment, Ms. Zackary’s phone buzzed.
Looking at the phone, she saw the caller was Phoebe Billy.
Ms. Zackary frowned and picked up, asking irritably, "What is it?"
Phoebe’s voice sounded panicked on the other end, "Ms. Zackary, this is bad. Mason Raymond... Mason Raymond, he..."
"What about him? Spit it out!" Ms. Zackary’s expression changed, suddenly sensing something was seriously wrong.
Phoebe spoke shakily, "Mason Raymond stormed the Capital City Martial Arts Association. I don’t know what he did, but..."
Ms. Zackary’s face went white instantly!
"Damn it, we got played!" Ms. Zackary suddenly realized, smacking her thigh!
Leticia looked confused and asked, "Ms. Zackary, what’s happening?"
Ms. Zackary gritted her teeth and said, "Leticia, head back first. I need to handle something."
After dropping those words, Ms. Zackary took off running.
She rushed all the way to the Capital City Martial Arts Association.
Seeing the bloodstains scattered everywhere, Ms. Zackary’s anxiety deepened.
"What the hell happened!" Ms. Zackary found Phoebe Billy and demanded urgently.
Phoebe Billy shook his head, "I have no idea. Mason Raymond knocked me unconscious and then went deeper into the association."
"I checked the security footage, but Mason Raymond was too clever. All the equipment got wrecked..."
Ms. Zackary’s face turned ghostly pale!
Went deeper? Could it be...the Second Secret Realm?!
With that thought, Ms. Zackary rushed toward the Second Secret Realm.
At the Second Secret Realm entrance, there was a puddle of blood.
This blood belonged to Mabel Sean.
"It’s finished!" Ms. Zackary’s face looked like death!
Just then, Ms. Zackary’s phone rang again.
And this call came from the higher-ups!
"Meeting." On the other end, there were still just those two cold words.
Ms. Zackary wiped the sweat off her forehead; she didn’t dare overthink and headed straight for the meeting room.
In the meeting room, several top officials had gathered.
Today’s atmosphere felt especially tense.
The moment she stepped into the meeting room, Ms. Zackary sensed something was off.
"Mabel Sean has been taken." At this point, a higher-up spoke.
"What?!" Ms. Zackary’s worst nightmare had come true.
"Ms. Zackary, how did you manage things? Do you realize what it means for Mabel Sean to be taken?!" Another higher-up shouted.
"Mason Raymond actually managed to break into the Second Secret Realm. This is all on you!"
Ms. Zackary shook, "How...how could he have opened the Second Secret Realm?"
"There are plenty of ways to open the secret realm. Is this really the time to discuss that?"
"If it wasn’t for you, how would Mason Raymond have discovered the Second Secret Realm!"
"What punishment do you deserve!"
Ms. Zackary dropped to her knees with a thud, trembling, "I...I will definitely get Mabel Sean back!"
"No need." A higher-up said coldly.
"We’ll pick someone else."
"You can’t dodge responsibility for Mabel Sean’s kidnapping!"
Ms. Zackary knelt on the floor, not daring to utter another word.
At this point, a higher-up spoke, "According to the rules, both you and your Heaven Swallowing Python must die!"
"But given your years of service to the Capital City Martial Arts Association, we can let you live. You should handle the Heaven Swallowing Python yourself; its presence will cloud your judgment."
