Chapter 963: Chapter 963: Villa Battle
"You..."
"I don’t like to waste words."
Shirley interrupted Beckett Carmichael’s words, "Two choices. The first, you become a corpse like them. The second, you take me inside."
It’s inconvenient to operate in the capital.
He came here to kill Julius Reed and to take the Divine Dragon Tripod.
Once he succeeded, he would disappear immediately.
Willson Pavilion was teeming with experts from the South; if they found out about Julius Reed’s death, they would seek revenge at all costs.
A guiltless man is not to blame, but the bearer of a treasure invites trouble.
At that time, Shirley would have to face much more than just Willson Pavilion.
And the countless others who lusted after the Divine Dragon Tripod.
A supreme treasure!
This very object had once caused a storm throughout the city.
The entire martial world was plunged into chaos.
He must get it quickly and swallow the hot potato!
"Go to hell! Old fool! Why do you, at your age, do something as despicable as murdering and plundering instead of anything decent?"
If forced to choose between himself and Julius Reed’s wife, Beckett Carmichael would rather die than betray his own!
Now, with a longsword at his neck, he exploded completely.
"Come on! Come on! Kill me, you son of a bitch, do it!"
Expect him to lead the way?
Impossible!
Beckett Carmichael would prefer death!
The Carmichael family ancestors had a teaching: one must not be ungrateful or betray benefactors.
He could die, and even in the presence of his ancestors, he could stand tall with his chest out!
Moreover, Julius Reed would surely avenge him!
"I like that very much."
Shirley was slightly taken aback and then sheathed the longsword with a smile: "In today’s world, it’s rare to find someone with such a sense of honor."
He had killed countless people, and beneath his sword lay thousands of lost souls.
In the face of death, one can truly see human nature.
Having witnessed the darkness of humanity, Shirley was somewhat reluctant to kill Beckett Carmichael.
"You don’t have to lead the way, that’s fine."
Snap!
Shirley tapped a finger at Beckett Carmichael’s throat, seizing his neck, and slowly walked towards the Carmichael family’s front door.
"Wu wu wu..."
Beckett Carmichael tried to speak, but he simply couldn’t.
His throat felt as though it was blocked by something.
"I don’t need you to speak up, I can manage just fine!"
Crack!
Shirley’s sword struck out!
The grand door split into pieces and collapsed to the ground.
The violent noise immediately attracted the Carmichael family’s bodyguards.
"I am here to kill Julius Reed, it has nothing to do with you!"
Shirley stood behind Beckett Carmichael, watching those bodyguards coldly, "Disperse immediately!"
"Wu wu wu..."
Beckett Carmichael seemed to realize something and began to struggle frantically!
From his mouth came muffled shouts.
Indeed.
On hearing Julius Reed’s name, those bodyguards reflexively ran towards the small western-style building.
This was an order once given by Beckett Carmichael.
The safety of those in the small western-style building was more important than his own life!
"So it’s here."
A smirk appeared on Shirley’s face.
She pushed Beckett Carmichael forward and vanished into thin air!
Ninjutsu!
Crack!
The next moment.
Windows of the small western-style building shattered.
Shirley had already appeared inside the room.
Plop!
A mangosteen fell onto the floor.
Bamboo Whitaker looked up, her eyes wide with alarm, "Grandpa... are you... here to save me?"
"Save you?"
Shirley slightly frowned.
In the room, there was a master.
She could feel it.
"I’ve been tied up here, and I’m violated by Julius Reed every day..."
As she said this, Bamboo Whitaker broke into a pitiful cry, "I thought... you came to take me away..."
"Hmm?"
The elder’s eyebrows furrowed, then he laughed loudly, "Who would’ve thought, he’s actually into this sort of thing?"
"Wu wu..."
Bamboo Whitaker cried even harder.
"Let’s go, leave this place."
Shirley spoke indifferently.
She came to kill and take treasure.
Such trivial matters, naturally, she wouldn’t care about.
"Really?"
Bamboo Whitaker’s tears turned to laughter, but then with suspicion, "You... you’re not lying to me, are you..."
"Let’s go, I am not a liar," replied Shirley, ignoring Bamboo Whitaker and carrying her sword towards the upstairs.
The master was on the second floor!
Thump! Thump! Thump!
Bamboo Whitaker grabbed the mobile phone from the table and ran out barefoot.
"Whew!" 𝘯𝑜𝑣𝑝𝑢𝘣.𝑐𝑜𝑚
She didn’t even have time to catch her breath as she hurriedly dialed Julius Reed’s number.
"Hey."
"Hey my ass, someone’s trying to kill your wife!"
Bamboo Whitaker yelled in a low voice, "An old man, super fierce!"
She wasn’t a fool. She had been constantly scared by Nelson, plus being hunted by her clan.
She had long become exceedingly alert.
Otherwise, how could she have escaped the lethal hands of her clan and made it to Gonzalez City?
"Where’s Beckett Carmichael!"
On the phone, Julius Reed’s voice was cold and bone-chilling.
"At the doorstep, can’t speak, most likely controlled."
Bamboo Whitaker said anxiously, "Where are you! Hurry back!"
"Don’t panic!"
After five seconds of silence.
Julius Reed’s voice came through again, "In this fight, if Nelson wins, you don’t need to do anything. But if she loses, immediately lead the enemy to a box under the coffee table. Inside, there’s a pen holder, tell them you’ve seen me use this thing for refining pills! But, you don’t know the exact method!"
In just a few seconds, he had swiftly made a cool-headed decision.
The comer must be after the Divine Dragon Tripod!
"Okay!"
After speaking, Bamboo Whitaker hung up the phone and stood at the front door.
Inside the little western-style house.
Shirley held a sword and walked upstairs.
Whoosh!
A longsword was thrust into the air!
Clang! Clang!
Two flashes of light passed by, and Shirley took a step back, looking at the woman in front of her.
"Not Julius Reed?"
He had not expected another master to be in the house.
And a woman at that.
"Who are you?"
Nelson held the longsword, asking coldly.
After the fight with Jerry Anderson, her vitality was greatly damaged, and her strength was seriously impaired.
Now, standing less than three meters away, Nelson could clearly feel the terrifying presence of the person before her.
Absolutely, a master!
"Where’s Julius Reed?"
Shirley asked indifferently, "Bring out the Divine Dragon Tripod, and I’ll spare your life."
"Hah, who do you think you are?"
Nelson thrust forward fiercely with her sword!
Clang! Clang!
Crack!
One strike, and the staircase was directly cleaved in two.
"If you want to see Julius Reed, get past me first."
Even with serious injuries, Nelson showed no sign of retreat.
"What’s going on?"
Just then, Quella Radcliffe, who had been taking an afternoon nap, suddenly walked out of the room.
"Go back!"
Nelson shouted softly.
Swoosh!
After a momentary freeze, Quella Radcliffe quickly closed the door and bolted it.
"Since Julius Reed isn’t here, I’ll take his wife as collateral."
Shirley’s eyes narrowed, and she vanished in an instant.
Boom!
The next moment, the door was shattered.
Shirley appeared without warning in front of Quella Radcliffe.
Before coming, he had looked up Julius Reed’s information.
Seen photos of Quella Radcliffe.
If the person’s not here, then taking Quella Radcliffe will do!
Whoosh!
Nelson followed quickly, striking swiftly!
The Holy Maiden of Azure Mountain, even injured, possessed terrifying strength!
As swords chimed, Shirley seemed to sense something.
He struck viciously, three darts flying straight towards Quella Radcliffe!
If they hit, death was certain!
Nelson narrowed her eyes, after a brief hesitation, leaped out!
Clang! Clang! Clang!
Three flashes of light.
Her sword knocked down the darts.
Swoosh!
But her shoulder took a solid blow.
In a direct confrontation, Nelson might not have lost!
But Shirley forced her to be distracted by directly attacking Quella Radcliffe!
Despicable, yet effective.
With this strike, Nelson painfully fell to the ground.
"Sorry, I can only kill you!"
The next moment, the longsword was at her throat.
"Don’t kill her!"
Quella Radcliffe rushed over, "I’m Julius Reed’s wife, come at me!"
"No rush."
Shirley gave a faint smile.
"Grandpa, I might have seen what you’re looking for."
Just as he was about to plunge the sword, Bamboo Whitaker, who had fled earlier, appeared at the door.
PS: Good night.
Going back to my hometown tomorrow.
Happy Labor Day to everyone.
The author is fine, will update more...
The overall updates for April were subpar; I’m just as anxious.
