Chapter 906: Chapter 906: The Master of Terry Moore
"The time is getting late."
In the Leocadia Family banquet hall, Natalia Leocadia looked at the million-dollar watch on her hand and spoke with some impatience, "Sophia Leocadia, Julius Reed wouldn’t stand you up, would he?"
Only three minutes remained until the previously agreed time.
Yet, there was no sign of activity at the door.
Could it be a no-show?
"Make a phone call."
She pointed at Sophia Leocadia, "Hurry him up. But let me be clear, if you dare to tip him off, everyone in this room will die, including your grandfather, your father, and you!"
She was somewhat worried Julius Reed wouldn’t show up.
With two Supreme Elders in attendance, anyone who comes will die!
Natalia Leocadia’s heart was already eager with anticipation.
"I won’t!"
Sophia Leocadia clenched her fists and huffed, "Uncle, you truly have no humanity! Have you forgotten all the kindness my grandfather showed you over the past thirty years?"
"Shut up!"
The last thing Natalia Leocadia wanted to hear about was her relationship with Evangeline Leocadia!
Today, she had finally seen the opportunity to become the Family Head of the Leocadia Family.
Once she ascended to power, the first thing she planned to do was to kill Evangeline Leocadia!
For thirty years, she lived in fear and trepidation!
Not a single day did she rest easy.
Or rather, ever since she joined Medicine King Valley, with the intention of overthrowing the Leocadia Family that had stood unshaken for hundreds of years,
her heart had never known peace.
Today, she had finally succeeded.
"If you don’t want to suffer, just stay put. Maybe if I’m in a good mood, I might let you all live a little longer."
Natalia Leocadia stood in front of Sophia Leocadia, her words laced with coldness.
"We’re all born from the same root, why be so eager to rush to conflict?"
Seeing his demeanor, Evangeline Leocadia shook her head in disappointment.
When someone of the status of a Supreme Elder from Medicine King Valley appeared, it was feared that no one in the world could stand against them.
Was the Leocadia Family truly going to be overthrown?
"Why the rush?"
Natalia Leocadia huffed lightly, sauntered over to Evangeline Leocadia, and pinched her chin forcefully.
"You old thing! That’s not what you said when you and your brothers were at each other’s throats back in the day, was it?"
She looked down from her lofty position, adopting the posture of a victor, as she gazed at the man who was once her father, "Now, are you scared?"
"I... have never been scared."
Evangeline Leocadia suddenly smiled.
That smile made Natalia Leocadia feel slightly creeped out.
Decades of psychological shadows caused her to involuntarily take a half step back.
"Still so tough with your words, you old thing!"
After speaking, she increased the pressure of her grip, a murderous intent appearing between her brows!
Bang!
But the next moment!
Evangeline Leocadia suddenly struck back, sending Natalia Leocadia flying backwards!
"You..."
After landing on the ground, Natalia Leocadia’s eyes widened as she clutched her chest.
In her gaze, was full of shock!
"You can actually fight!"
She writhed in pain, teeth clenched with blood spilling over them.
If it weren’t for the fact that Medicine King Valley required the study of both medical and martial arts, she might have been killed by that strike!
"Who do you think is Terry Moore’s master?"
Evangeline Leocadia stood up, exuding the aura of a powerful figure.
In this moment, where was the frail elder with white hair?
"Master!"
Terry Moore stepped forward, calling out respectfully.
"Haha! How interesting, utterly fascinating!"
Natalia Leocadia was first stunned, and then she burst into laughter, "First you fabricate an identity for Terry Moore, then you send him to my side! Evangeline Leocadia, you sly old dog, what a poisonous scheme!"
She never expected that the bodyguard she had bought for a handsome sum would turn out to be a mole planted by her own side!
But, it no longer mattered.
With two Supreme Elders present, who in the world could contend with them?
"I arranged for Terry Moore to be at your side for two reasons," Evangeline Leocadia stated coldly. "First, to protect you. Second, to take you out the moment you harbored rebellious thoughts! But you hid too well, so much that even I was deceived."
Human hearts!
The most difficult thing to predict in the world is the human heart.
She had already been on high alert against Natalia Leocadia, but to think she still slipped up!
Capsizing in the gutter.
If not for Sophia Leocadia running around tirelessly, she would already be a corpse.
Dead without clarity, without understanding.
"Not even the people at your side saw your ambition! Natalia Leocadia, you hid it deeply enough!"
Standing behind Evangeline Leocadia were Karen and Terry Moore.
"Supreme Elder, I must trouble you to take action once again."
Natalia Leocadia crawled before Atticus Ellsworth and said in a grave voice.
"Not a problem!"
Watching the three people in front of him, Atticus Ellsworth sat in his chair, lifted his teacup, "They won’t get close to you."
Arrogant!
Or rather, confident!
At this moment, Atticus Ellsworth chatted relaxedly, even striking up casual conversation with Orville Ellsworth.
Clearly,
he didn’t take the three of them seriously.
"Then let me experience the abilities of the Supreme Elder of Medicine King Valley!"
Evangeline Leocadia’s expression was solemn.
This was knowingly engaging in something impossible, yet choosing to proceed.
The whole family was watching her.
She had no choice.
She could only grit her teeth and give it a shot!
"Charge!"
No sooner had the words left her mouth than Evangeline Leocadia shot out like a bolt of lightning.
In her early years, to deal with family crises, she had secretly practiced martial arts!
It was precisely with these skills that she had escaped death countless times and become the Family Head of the Leocadia Family!
Now, despite her age, she still possessed a heroic bearing!
Her attack was as swift and fierce as thunder!
Bang!
Atticus Ellsworth put his teacup on the table with a thud and violently pushed it forward!
Whoosh!
The teacup cut through the air, whistling as it flew away.
"Be careful!"
Crack!
Evangeline Leocadia’s pupils shrank, and she punched out with her right fist, smashing directly!
The teacup instantly shattered.
But before they could catch their breath, three more chopsticks appeared in front of them!
Thud!
Evangeline Leocadia couldn’t dodge in time and was pierced through the shoulder by one of the chopsticks!
Clang!
The steel-made chopstick, stained with blood, was nailed into the wall of the Leocadia Family’s house!
It went in flush with the wall.
One could imagine the force behind it.
"Hiss!"
Evangeline Leocadia staggered, clutching her shoulder in pain.
Blood, trickling down her fingers non-stop.
"Go! Don’t mind me!"
She took a deep breath, her eyes bloodshot!
Fight, or die!
She had no choice.
Whoosh!
Terry Moore lifted his chair overhead and fiercely smashed it down towards Atticus Ellsworth!
Yet, when the chair was less than half a meter away from Atticus Ellsworth’s head, the Supreme Elder of Medicine King Valley suddenly vanished!
Bang!
The next moment, Terry Moore felt a blow to his back, staggering into the wall.
Spurt!
He spat out a mouthful of fresh blood, barely able to stand up with the support of the wall.
From his mouth, blood continued to seep out.
Terry Moore’s breathing also became more and more labored.
Too strong!
The abilities of Atticus Ellsworth had surpassed the limits of humanity.
Facing such a formidable opponent, only despair filled their hearts.
"Terry Moore!"
Karen screamed loudly, furiously flinging a handful of silver needles forward!
Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!
The poison-tipped silver needles broke through the air, heading straight for the two Supreme Elders.
Whirl!
Atticus Ellsworth violently flicked his sleeve and deflected the silver needles.
"This is your medical school’s traitor; it’s not convenient for me to handle her."
Having said that, he sat back down.
"Traitor, since it’s a traitor, then punishment is inevitable," Orville Ellsworth lifted his head, smiling at Karen as he slowly raised a hand.
Then!
He slammed it down fiercely!
"Ah!"
Karen let out a terrible scream, kneeling on the ground in agony!
A large lump swelled on her forehead, with something squirming incessantly inside it.
"The Heart Eating Bug. By the time we take you back to Medicine King Valley, it will have just finished consuming your heart," Orville Ellsworth said indifferently.
