With just one display of aura, Alaric Styles was sent flying, his internal organs severely damaged.
It could be said that one move rendered him useless.
Alaric Styles’ pupils contracted, still unable to comprehend. “Why? Why is someone like you appearing here? It shouldn’t be, it can’t be. Who are you and how did you end up in the Border Sea?”
He was in a bad state himself.
He had come out to make a name for himself after hiding for nearly thirty years, but just as he was about to enter the battlefield, he was intercepted.
Being stopped was one thing.
He could have a fight, proving the fruits of his years of arduous training.
But!
Damn it!
Why?!
Why was he so powerful?
Just one move.
Based solely on his aura, he had injured him.
How could he continue fighting like this?
“Me? You can call me Mr. X.”
Robin Bailey stepped on the tree trunk, slowly approaching with a cold gaze. The fanged mask on his face was intimidating, making Alaric Styles truly see him as a demon.
However, Alaric Styles had been in seclusion for too long.
If he were someone well-informed, he would know who Mr. X was.
He was utterly dumbfounded.
Mr. X!
Kisia’s First War God.
A single person who, with a three-foot longsword, intimidated a million-strong army from Nanyue, causing soldiers from various countries to lose their helmets and armor, trembling at the mere mention of his name.
“Take me to find Stuart Holt.”
Robin Bailey arrogantly walked up to Alaric Styles, looking down at him.
No need for pleasantries.
Stuart Holt was from the Harding family, a traitor.
In Robin Bailey’s eyes, all traitors had to die.
“Heh.”
Alaric Styles sneered. He was a man of loyalty. He was cultivated by Stuart Holt, so he pledged his loyalty to him and was ready to die by biting off the poison on his teeth.
But after biting twice, he realized the poison was gone.
“That poison has been shaken off by me,” Robin Bailey said indifferently. “For now, you don’t need to die, and you can’t die. I need your information.”
“Information? I won’t tell you,” Alaric Styles gritted his teeth. This was something he hadn’t anticipated, but he still wouldn’t talk.
“You must be a Kisia person, right?” Robin Bailey asked.
“What do you mean? Of course,” Alaric Styles sneered. “If you want to kill me, just do it. Stop talking about whether I’m a Kisia person or not.”
“Is that so? Do you know that the person behind Stuart Holt is the Harding family? And the Harding family recently colluded with foreign races, occupied the Southern Province, and caused the deaths and injuries of countless Kisia people. The Harding family is a traitor, a betrayer. Are you going to join them in betraying the country?” Robin Bailey asked again.
This time, Alaric Styles fell silent. He knew some of these things but wasn’t certain. Today, this person confirmed it for him. After two minutes of silence, Alaric Styles raised his head and said, “I am a Kisia person. I can tell you Stuart Holt’s whereabouts, but I have one condition: you can’t kill Stuart Holt. I’m willing to exchange my life for his.”
He was a man of loyalty, indebted to Stuart Holt.
“You dare to negotiate with me?” Robin Bailey’s eyes flashed with a cold light. He immediately commanded, “Take action and continue until he reveals Stuart Holt’s whereabouts.”
You dare to negotiate with me?
Who do you think you are?
If he were to compromise, he wouldn’t be Robin Bailey.
“Yes.”
Two wolf guards appeared beside him and dragged Alaric Styles away. Subsequently, echoing sounds and the scent of blood filled the air, but no screams came, proving that Alaric Styles had courage.
However, no matter how courageous he was, what did it matter?
A traitor was a traitor.
After five minutes, the two Wolf Guards returned with bloodied hands and reported, “The man is dead, but before he died, he revealed the address to us. It’s in the northern part of the city, Shanshui District, House No. 13. There’s a small company there, and Stuart Holt is inside.”
The information was true.
As for why it was true, it was all thanks to the unique interrogation skills of these Wolf Guards.
With their extensive experience, they could determine whether something was true or false.
“Go and investigate,” commanded Robin Bailey.
“Yes.”
The two Wolf Guards left.
Shortly after, Robin Bailey leaped onto a large tree and observed the scene of the Tang family’s estate being besieged. It was densely packed with assassins and various figures from the martial world.
They were attacking the Tang family.
As for the Beckett family’s people, they hadn’t arrived yet.
They wouldn’t be arriving so soon.
The Braton family wasn’t to be trifled with. They had sent people to intercept the Beckett family’s forces, although it might not delay them for long, it would buy enough time for these assassins to infiltrate the Tang family.
At the entrance of the Tang family estate:
“Kill them! The patriarch said that once we break through the gates of the Tang family, we’ll have wealth and prosperity!”
“Kill for the money!”
“The boss said to let us kill!”
Groups of people, like a disorganized army of shrimp soldiers and crab generals, rushed towards the Tang family. Their formation was chaotic, their organization in disarray. In Robin Bailey’s eyes, they were nothing more than shrimp soldiers and crab generals.
After all, they had received no training.
Even the Flame Legion was stronger than these people.
However, they were untrained, using the tactic of overwhelming numbers, attacking one by one. Likewise, the Tang family members were also untrained, and in this situation, they could no longer hold them back.
“Patriarch, we can’t hold them back,” Scorpion, who was blocking the entrance, covered in blood, shouted back at Emmett Tang.
“Damn it!” Emmett Tang’s eyes burned with anger.
The Tang family was not weak. Even though a large number of their members were still outside, they still had their foundations and were not inferior to the Braton family. But they couldn’t withstand this assault. This time, not only did the Braton family bring their own forces, but they also recruited so many assassins.
Assassins were one thing, but they even sacrificed some of their interests to get those greedy figures from the martial world like Elmer Fox to make a move!
It was insane.
However, he had received orders from Stuart Holt to assassinate Ferdinand Braton. Before he could carry out the assassination, the Braton family had attacked their estate. It left him seething with anger.
“Patriarch, we can’t hold them back!” Scorpion shouted.
“Fall back into the house and continue to resist,” Emmett Tang said with a dark expression. Their estate was large, and they were familiar with the terrain, but resisting from within was their only option now. They could only wait for the Beckett family or the experts sent by Stuart Holt.
However…
What he didn’t know was that the assassins sent by Stuart Holt had already arrived. They were not far from him, perhaps only a few hundred meters away, but they were already lifeless corpses.
Bargaining with Robin Bailey.
Even enemy generals wouldn’t dare.
What was this Alaric Styles, then?
The Beckett family’s people were still being blocked by the Braton family, which meant that they currently had no reinforcements.
Furthermore, there was something he was completely unaware of. Once they started retreating, a person quietly slipped out from the Braton family’s ranks and infiltrated the Tang family estate.
