The sharp dagger soared into the air, completely out of Maurice Springs’ control!
The manager of the Far East Branch was filled with astonishment!
Even though he had once again overestimated his opponent, he now realized that he had still underestimated him!
“I don’t believe it!”
He let out an angry roar, dodging Julius Reed’s attack at an eerie angle and darted to the side of a large tree!
“Rise!”
As Maurice Springs’ thunderous shout rang out, that large tree was actually uprooted by him!
This strength had completely exceeded the realm of human beings!
“Go to hell!”
Boom!
He held the tree with both hands and smashed it viciously toward Julius Reed!
If this blow was to hit, even if he didn’t die, he would be left with half a life at most!
But just then, Julius Reed pushed off the ground and soared into the air!
Slash!
He grabbed the dagger in mid-air and plunged it ferociously towards the tree!
Crack!
The thick tree was actually split in half by the penetrating dagger!
Afterward, the crack continued to spread towards the base of the tree. Julius Reed ran towards Maurice Springs’ position, holding the dagger in one hand!
All the way, he was unstoppable!
“This…
Even though Maurice Springs was well-experienced, he was still frightened by this scene!
Is this even a human?
He’s simply a monster!
“We’ll meet again!”
Seeing the turn for the worse, Maurice Springs took to his heels and ran!
An old hand who had survived countless life-and-death battles would naturally not act on impulse!
It was clear now, injured as he was, he was no match for his opponent, and to keep fighting meant there was only one path left: death!
Thus, he sprinted with all his might, trying to escape from this place.
Slash!
A dagger flew through the air behind him!
Thwack!
The dagger struck true, embedding in Maurice Springs’ back!
If he hadn’t dodged in advance, that blow would certainly have struck his heart!
His figure paused for a moment, then quickly vanished into the night.
“Sigh! If I could have regained a bit more of my power, I would have definitely stopped him.”
Looking into the night, Julius Reed shook his head and slowly walked towards the Water Pearl.
The opponent was strong, the strongest enemy he had faced so far.
It wasn’t that Julius Reed didn’t want to pursue, it was that Maurice Springs was fully intent on escaping, and he simply couldn’t keep him there.
As the manager of the Far East Branch of Willson Pavilion, Maurice Springs had this much ability.
“Get to the hotel entrance 500 meters outside the hospital with Quantez immediately!”
Miles Cook, who was on watch at the hospital for Quantez Springs, suddenly received a call from Maurice Springs.
Looking at the young man on the hospital bed, now severely disabled, she was filled with sorrow.
Maurice Springs sparing her life was clearly so she could take care of his son for life.
As long as Willson Pavilion existed, she had to do just that!
But for a girl in her prime, it was a bit too cruel!
Now that the call had come through, Miles Cook was startled.
Could it be that the young master had perished?
“Master, Quantez’s injuries…”
“Right away! In five minutes, bring Quantez over!”
Maurice Springs’ agitated yell came through the phone.
“Understood ! ”
Miles Cook knew that if her master wasn’t facing something urgent, he would never make such a decision.
How could the old man, who dearly loved Quantez Springs, possibly take his son out of the hospital when he was in a critical condition?
But the command was as firm as a mountain, and Miles Cook, organizing her thoughts, picked up Quantez Springs and started walking out.
Time passed swiftly, and when Miles Cook reached the hotel entrance, Maurice Springs was already there waiting.
“Master…”
Seeing her master, Miles Cook’s heart sank.
Could it be because Maurice Springs had killed that young man, and by coincidence, that young man’s background was enormously powerful, forcing the branch manager to flee in the night?
If that were true, Miles Cook couldn’t help but feel a sense of loss.
“Let’s go!”
Without any superfluous words, Maurice Springs, with a grave face, walked ahead.
It was not until then that Miles Cook realized that Maurice Springs was covered in blood, and one of his arms seemed to be injured.
“Be careful!”
Just at that moment, Maurice Springs suddenly stopped, forcefully pushing Quantez Springs and Miles Cook away!
Whoosh!
A dart whizzed by them and struck the wall in the pitch-black night, sparking a burst of flames.
“Ambush! Protect Quantez!”
Having given that instruction, Maurice Springs dashed toward the direction from where the dart had come!
Although the sound of the dart was muffled, he still managed to pinpoint the attacker’s location immediately!
Whoosh! Whoosh!
A series of darts followed, but Maurice Springs, as if able to precisely predict their trajectory, kept dodging without stopping, narrowly escaping each attack!
“Courting death!”
He struck out with his palm, instantly killing the Shadow Warrior hiding behind the wall!
At the same time, Maurice Springs turned sharply around, grabbed the throwing spikes from the dead Shadow Warrior’s hand, and shot them towards a corner.
Then he quickly darted forward!
Whoosh! Whoosh!
Two punches thundered out, leaving only a trail of corpses and a seriously injured Shadow Warrior.
“Speak! Who sent you!”
Maurice Springs, bearing extreme pain, stepped on the Shadow Warrior’s neck.
Although he was greatly weakened and covered with wounds, dealing with this kind of Shadow Warrior was still well within his capabilities.
The resentment left from his defeat to Julius Reed was fully unleashed in this moment!
“1…”
“Speak!”
The Shadow Warrior began to stammer, but Maurice Springs increased the pressure under his foot again.
Although he suspected that Julius Reed was behind this, he also felt it was impossible!
If even Julius Reed in person couldn’t keep him, what was the point of sending these people?
To die?
Clearly, that was unrealistic.
“It’s the Leopold Family…”
The Shadow Warrior trembled as he spoke, “It was the Leopold Family that ordered us to do this, please have mercy, spare me…”
This Shadow Warrior had carried out many missions, yet had never come across someone so vicious!
Unable to be hit by darts, instantly using lethal moves upon engagement!
Several brothers were ambushed here, yet in the blink of an eye, they were all wiped out!
Who in the world was this! “Which Leopold Family?”
Maurice Springs frowned.
Judging by the other’s demeanor, he didn’t seem to be lying.
Although he had innumerable enemies, he didn’t recall making an enemy of anyone named Leopold.
Now that the other party had sent over a dozen Shadow Warriors to take his life, he was even more determined to unearth the truth!
Daring to assassinate the Young Master of the Willson Pavilion’s Far East Branch, not to mention their overreaching, even if they succeeded, could they withstand the wrath of Willson Pavilion? “Five-river Province, there’s only one Leopold Family!”
The Shadow Warrior didn’t know how to answer.
They had received intelligence that Julius Reed had called for reinforcements, who were near the hospital.
Furthermore, they conveyed precise information about their whereabouts to these people from the Leopold Family.
Afterward, the Leopold Family decided after consultation that a preemptive strike was best, so they ambushed the reinforcements around the hospital, waiting to take out Julius Reed’s help.
Now that their entire force had been annihilated, the man was asking which Leopold Family it was?
“Alright, your time has come.”
Crack!
After ending the life of the Shadow Warrior, Maurice Springs clutched at his chest.
Seriously injured, he needed to find somewhere to recover.
Later, he would seek out the Leopold Family to understand why they dared to take his life!
