Chapter 429: Chapter 429: Arrogance Courts Disaster_1
Milton Family Estate.
“Daley, do you think this Barry Wolfe really has some kind of background?”
“Impossible.”
Troy Milton shook his head and frowned, “If he truly had a background, he would have come knocking on our door a long time ago. Why wait until now?”
Simon Cooper nodded silently, lost in thought, “That’s true, but… what about Lukas Simon?”
Trent Preston snorted coldly, “I bet Lukas Simon is still hoping that Barry Wolfe will help him dispel the negative energy, isn’t he?”
“That makes sense!”
Troy Milton took a deep breath and said, “Regardless, let’s first break the negative energy.
If, after dispelling the negative energy, Lukas doesn’t make a move, then we’ll think of another plan.”
Simon Cooper’s mind raced, and he whispered, “If we go to the hospital…”
He made a throat-slitting gesture, and the other two immediately understood, their eyes widening in shock.
Trent Preston lowered his voice urgently, “Old Simon, isn’t this… a bit too risky?”
Simon Cooper curled his lip and scoffed, “This city is our turf. As long as we don’t admit it, who would know it was us?
Alberto Simon just had a conflict with Barry Wolfe, and then he dies. Even if Lukas Simon doesn’t want to go after Barry, he might no longer have a choice.”
Trent Preston still had some reservations and turned to look at Troy Milton.
Troy Milton slowly shook his head and said, “Better not take the risk. Lukas is already suspicious of us. If we provoke him, our lives will become very difficult.”
In the local military, more than half of the middle-ranking officers are from the Stuart Family, and it is the same with the inspectors.
Even so, the Stuart Family would have to show some deference to Lukas Simon.
The reason is none other. Although Lukas’ personal strength is not very formidable, he is, after all, a military commander, and moreover, one from an external military force who has direct access to the top echelons.
Although the Stuart Family is not afraid, they also do not wish to make an enemy of such a person.
If the trio from the Milton Family angered Lukas, not only would the Stuart Family not help them, but they would also actively deliver them to Lukas.
Troy Milton sighed, “Let’s just resolve the issue with the negative energy first.”
Simon Cooper nodded thoughtfully and then inquired, “Can we rely on Randy Locke?”
Troy Milton said, “There should be no problem, after all, he is Bradley Ford’s martial uncle.”
Trent Preston wondered, “Bradley’s dad has been gone for so many years now. Where did this martial uncle suddenly come from?”
Troy Milton explained, “Randy’s martial grandfather and Bradley’s great-grandfather were martial brothers who both studied under Bradley’s martial great-grandfather.
Afterward, Randy’s martial grandfather went to the south to develop, and the two families lost touch.
Randy Locke has seemingly done well for himself in the south. He came back this time specifically to pay homage to his ancestors.”
Simon Cooper nodded and said, “Let’s hope he can really deal with the negative energy.”
…
Ford Residence.
“Martial Uncle, you were too impulsive.”
Because they needed to prepare some items, Randy Locke returned to the Ford residence with Bradley Ford.
Once home, Bradley couldn’t help but complain, “Do you know who that person is? You dared to call him a swindler?”
Randy Locke snorted coldly, “So young and daring to go around offering Feng Shui consultation, what is he if not a swindler?
You should know, in our sect, someone his age would not even have been sent out as an apprentice yet.”
Bradley Ford said somewhat helplessly, “Martial Uncle, he’s a Grandmaster, a Martial Arts Grandmaster!”
“A Martial Arts Grandmaster? A Grandmaster that young?”
Randy Locke also had a startle upon learning this, as he had been too focused on supporting the Ford family and hadn’t paid close attention to the conversation of the others.
He cleared his throat and feigned calmness, “This only proves that he is a fraud. As far as I know…”
Bradley Ford brutally cut him off, “Uncle Master, a Grandmaster must not be insulted!”
Randy Locke’s expression froze, and then he waved his hand dismissively, “Don’t worry, your Uncle Master hasn’t been idling around in the south all these years. I have friends everywhere in the martial world.
Even within Healington, I have a handful of good friends…”
Bradley Ford said somewhat speechlessly, “Uncle Master, they’ve even killed Healington’s messengers and elders, what more your one?”
“What did you say?”
Randy Locke was now completely panicked, “He dares to kill people from Healington?”
“What else did you think? Otherwise, why would those Family Heads be so afraid of him, determined to kill him?”
Bradley Ford said helplessly, “That’s why I kept giving you signals, telling you not to get involved in this mess.”
Randy Locke’s complexion turned somewhat pale, “Ah, I… I didn’t see it.”
Busy posturing, what could you possibly see?
Bradley Ford was annoyed in his heart, but he didn’t have any solution for his impetuous Uncle Master.
He wanted to give Randy Locke a good scare to prevent him from causing more trouble. Yet, seeing his Uncle Master looking so distressed, he couldn’t bear to do it and could only try to comfort him:
“Uncle Master, you don’t need to be too anxious. As far as I understand, that person is quite reasonable. As long as you don’t cross his line, he probably won’t do anything to you.”
“Oh, that’s good.”n/ô/vel/b//jn dot c//om
Randy Locke heaved a sigh of relief, then asked, “What about The West River Valley then…”
“Since he has already given it to you, you should take care of it well.”
Bradley Ford hesitated for a moment, then asked, “Are you sure you can deal with the Yin Sha?”
When it came to Feng Shui, Randy Locke suddenly perked up and said, “Don’t worry. I encountered this Yin Sha thing a few years back in the southern border.
To suppress the birthplace of Yin Sha, all you need is a statue of Guan Gong. You don’t need anything else; it’s quite simple to handle.”
Hearing this, Bradley Ford felt something was off, but he couldn’t pinpoint exactly what. Seeing that his Uncle Master was so confident, he could only nod in agreement.
He then called the butler and ordered him to help prepare everything that was needed.
…
Greg Jensen walked out of the camp unharmed, and the news quickly spread. Everyone was shocked to learn that Lukas Simon hadn’t given him a hard time.
“Fuck, could it be that Barry Wolfe has some kind of background?”
“Not a chance. I heard it’s because of the Yin Sha matter. The Milton Family had consulted a Feng Shui Master to solve the issue.
Once the Yin Sha is dealt with, Barry Wolfe is still doomed.”
“Heh, just buying himself a few more days to live, then.”
“Exactly!”
“It’s a pity, Barry Wolfe became a Grandmaster so young. If he could survive, he would definitely become a powerful being of the Daoist realm in the future.”
“Fortune rains on the meek, disaster strikes the proud! There’s nothing that can be done; who told him to be so arrogant?”
After learning the details, people reacted differently.
There were those who felt pity, those who delighted in others’ misfortune, and those who were trembling in fear — and the latter was only Glen Wolfe.
“What am I supposed to do now?”
Glen Wolfe sat on the sofa with a look of worry on his face, “Sigh, he dodged Healington only to end up with the military. If I had known, I wouldn’t have gotten so close to Barry Wolfe. This…”
“Dodged what?”
Greg Jensen’s voice suddenly rang from outside.
What do you think?
