Chapter 832: Chapter 832 Not Here To Bargain
A massive force suddenly hoisted Stella Lucas into the air.
Her face turned crimson as she writhed, her eyes brimming with agony and fear.
"How dare you appear before me?" I narrowed my eyes and spoke icily.
Stella struggled to speak, "I... I don’t know... what you mean..."
"You don’t know? How can someone from the Michelle Sect not know?" I said coldly.
Still fighting against my grip, Stella struck my arm and said in pain, "I... truly don’t know..."
Seeing that she didn’t appear to be deceiving me, I released my hold on her.
Given the opportunity to breathe, Stella desperately gasped for fresh air.
She stared at me and asked, "What are you referring to?"
"Are you genuinely unaware of the Michelle Sect’s plot against me?" I frowned.
"Plot? Didn’t they assist you in rescuing that person?" Stella asked, bewildered.
I looked at Leigh Simpson and inquired, "Do you recognize her?"
"I don’t recognize her," Leigh answered without emotion.
I murmured, "Perhaps Stella truly knows nothing."
"Bring me to the Michelle Sect," I told Stella.
Stella rose from the ground and said bitterly, "You just assaulted me, why should I bring you..."
"If you genuinely know nothing, I can offer you an apology," I said.
Stella muttered, "Who wants your apology?"
Despite her protest, she still guided me toward the Mystic Realm’s direction.
Before long, the three of us reached the Mystic Realm’s entrance.
Just as previously, Stella lacked a method to enter the Mystic Realm.
All she could manage was to pull out her phone and contact York Pauley.
Several minutes passed.
Before us, a shimmering, wave-like glow started to manifest.
Next, we witnessed York Pauley emerging from the Mystic Realm.
Just as he was preparing to speak, his expression suddenly shifted when he spotted me standing next to Stella, and without uttering a word, he instantly sealed the Mystic Realm’s entrance!
Stella gaped in astonishment. She looked at me and questioned, "What... what’s happening?"
I didn’t provide an explanation but turned to Leigh and asked, "Can you unlock this Mystic Realm?"
Leigh nodded, "Yes, this is the most basic and straightforward Mystic Realm, and the mystic keys are equally simple."
"Then don’t delay any longer. Help me open it," I said, stepping backward.
Leigh approached the Mystic Realm’s entrance, retrieved his token, and started searching for the realm’s dao technique.
Though Leigh was also a Michelle Sect member, he understood nothing about this particular Mystic Realm.
——
Meanwhile, inside the Mystic Realm, York Pauley was rushing toward Alexa Madron’s office.
"Mr. Madron, there’s trouble!" York burst through the office door, breathing heavily.
Alexa looked at him and said coldly, "What’s all the commotion about?"
York gulped and said, "That Mason Raymond has arrived! He’s at the Mystic Realm’s entrance, nearly let him in moments ago!"
"Mason Raymond?" Alexa suddenly rose, and a flicker of worry crossed his features.
Alexa understood perfectly that Mason had come to even the score.
"Don’t panic, he cannot open this Mystic Realm," Angela Tamara said calmly as he drew near.
"Mr. Madron, what are you frightened of? This is a Mystic Realm. Who can enter without our authorization?"
Alexa glanced at him and felt somewhat reassured.
However, after considering the circumstances, Alexa ultimately chose to consult his superior.
"You both remain here and delay him if Mason Raymond truly arrives. Find a method to stall him," Alexa said.
Angela scoffed, "He’s an outsider, there’s no possibility he can enter."
Without another word, Alexa hurried toward the black-robed man’s chamber.
Upon reaching the black-robed man’s room.
The moment the door opened, Alexa frantically said, "There’s trouble! Mason Raymond has arrived! He’s waiting outside the Mystic Realm!"
Upon hearing this, the black-robed man suddenly rose.
A look of dread appeared on his face, and he instinctively stepped back several paces.
"Sir, what’s the matter?" Alexa asked, confused.
"Mason Raymond is still outside the Mystic Realm, he shouldn’t be able to get in, right?"
The black-robed man remained silent, but cold perspiration was streaming down his forehead.
A few minutes later, the black-robed man said with a rigid expression, "The Mystic Realm Master Leigh... is under his control..."
"Mystic Realm Master?" This caused Alexa’s face to drain of color!
The black-robed man forced himself to stay composed, "You find a way to keep him occupied first. I need time to employ secret techniques to handle him."
Alexa nodded rapidly, "Sir, don’t worry, I comprehend!"
With that, Alexa turned and departed.
After Alexa left, the black-robed man’s face became completely dark.
"I cannot simply sit here and await my demise," the black-robed man drew a deep breath.
"If Mason can reach Gyeon City now, it means that Mr. Hill is already deceased."
"Even Mr. Hill has perished by his hand, how could I possibly have a chance against him!"
It became clear that the black-robed man possessed no secret techniques whatsoever.
All he could contemplate was escaping as quickly as possible!
——
Outside the Mystic Realm.
Leigh swiftly opened the Mystic Realm.
"Amazing, how did you accomplish that?!" Stella exclaimed in wonder.
I glanced at her but didn’t explain, instead saying, "Enter with me."
"Okay," Stella didn’t overthink it and immediately followed me into the Mystic Realm.
As the three of us entered, the entrance slowly vanished.
The instant I stepped into the Mystic Realm, I couldn’t help but frown slightly.
This location was far inferior compared to Capital City Martial Arts Association’s Second Secret Realm.
Not only was there no abundant qi, but even the structures inside were in complete disorder.
"This is a low-grade Mystic Realm, there’s nothing unusual about it," Leigh seemed to notice my confusion.
I grunted in acknowledgment and immediately strode toward the Great Hall.
In the Great Hall, Alexa sat drinking tea and awaiting my arrival.
Around the hall stood several Marquis, with York and Angela positioned behind Alexa.
Soon, I arrived at the Great Hall with Stella.
As soon as we entered, Alexa enthusiastically said, "Mason Raymond, why have you come? You should have informed me!"
"Precisely, we could have given you a proper welcome!" York said with a grin.
I glanced at him, said nothing, and with a gesture of my hand, instantly crushed York’s head!
This abrupt turn of events plunged the entire hall into pandemonium!
And Angela’s face displayed complete shock, which rapidly transformed into horror!
"Mason Raymond, what... what do you intend by this?" Alexa clenched his teeth and asked rigidly.
I looked at Alexa coldly and said, "Quit pretending. I’m not here to bargain with you today, but to eliminate."
