Chapter 212: Chapter 211: A Man Appears on the Way_l

Translator: 549690339

Under the clear moonlight, several Shadow Warriors quickly surrounded Julius Reed.

This place was a distance away from the night market, so quiet that not even the clamorous noise over there could be heard, clearly, they had come prepared.

“Before I send you on your way, I’d like to ask a question.”

Julius Reed straightened the buttons on his cuff and casually asked, “Who sent you?”

Whenever he thought of his enemies, Julius Reed would begin to feel a headache coming on.

These people were like flies; although they couldn’t bite him, they were so annoying!

No matter where he went, there was always someone following him.

“Well, good! Today, you’ll die knowing why!”

The person in charge approached slowly, a black-clothed man with his face covered, whose voice suggested he was around forty years old.

He was burly, exuding an air of death; obviously, he had claimed many lives.

“Young Master Jaxen Brandon, you remember him, don’t you?”

When the man spoke, Julius Reed understood.

It turned out to be people sent by the Brandon Family, but the reach of the Brandon Family was truly long; they even extended their hand into Five-river Province.

After Cameron Brandon had been defeated and fled in a panic, Julius Reed thought he would escape abroad and not dare to return to the country for a while.

However, he didn’t expect that they would be so impatient and send someone to assassinate him so soon.

“Of course I remember, the way he died in front of me was truly laughable,” Julius Reed said with a shake of his head and a smile. “What a pity, I forgot to record it to show you.”

If Jaxen Brandon dared to abduct Quella Radcliffe, then the Brandon Family would have to follow him to the grave.

Once he made the time, he would take care of the Brandon Family properly. “I’m sorry! We don’t care about Jaxen Brandon’s death!”

The man shrugged and said, “We get paid to do a job, we don’t concern ourselves with your grudges. Right now, we only know one thing, that head of yours on your shoulders is worth fifty million!”

So, they were professional Shadow Warriors.

“So you’re saying that I’m walking around every day with something worth tens of millions on my head? Isn’t that a bit like showing off wealth?”

Julius Reed wasn’t nervous; instead, he clasped his hands behind his back and looked at the group of Shadow Warriors with a grin.

Interesting. The Brandon Family not only took action themselves but even spent money to hire killers.

It seemed that Jaxen Brandon’s death had greatly affected them.

Gonzalez City was under Aron Jackson’s control—he wouldn’t let the Brandon Family’s men act rashly. Currently, aside from a few power groups, almost all of Gonzalez City was under Aron Jackson’s surveillance.

Still, the fact that the Shadow Warriors hired by the Brandon Family could infiltrate Five-river Province was enough to show their determination.

“Fifty million, this is the biggest bounty I’ve ever taken on! I thought I was after someone really impressive, and I even brought out all my resources. Yet when I saw you today, it turns out you’re just a young man!”

Even though the man’s face was covered, his tone carried a sense of disdain, “Isn’t this just like picking up money? I’m starting to doubt if I’ve got the wrong person!”

The man named Bianca Leocadia was a desperado.

In his life, he did nothing but kill and plunder. When he first took on this job, he thought he was dealing with someone very impressive.

After all, a fifty million bounty is not something ordinary people get.

He even gathered all his martial artist buddies, ready to make a big score!

But who would have thought that after sneaking all the way to Five-river Province, they would find their target was just a young man.

And not even some ultra-rich second generation, just a son-in-law who had married into a family.

Bianca Leocadia was both pleased and regretful.

Pleased because the job was almost like picking up free money. Regretful because he and his brothers were all set for a major clash, but now there was nowhere to exert their strength.

“Once I take your head and get the money, I’ll burn some ritual paper for you on the fifteenth of July.”

Bianca Leocadia wiped the triangular military thorn on his body, revealing a gleaming cold light.

“Fifty million, is that a lot?”

Julius Reed shook his head and said, “This offer is an insult to me. There was once a bounty of one billion on my life, and yet here I am, alive and well, while the person who offered the money may have already been reincarnated!”

During the Republic of China era, Julius Reed, out of boredom, strolled into a foreign tycoon’s mansion and casually took with him some national artifacts that had been stolen.

Before leaving, Julius Reed wrote a line in the tycoon’s mansion.

Uninhabited territory.

It was these four characters that deeply irritated the tycoon. His home security was comparable to a museum’s, and yet someone had broken in without any detection.

The news spread quickly, and to save face, the tycoon offered a bounty of US dollars that was almost equivalent to ten billion today.

Thus, one after another, the Shadow Warriors were all eliminated, and the tycoon, terrified, chartered a cargo ship to flee with his wealth.

That night, the ship sank.

The tycoon became dinner for the fish.

Now, what’s fifty million in comparison?

“Big talk! Number Three, go and see what he’s made of, try to capture him alive. I want to see just how tough this kid can be!”

Being ignored made Bianca Leocadia somewhat angry.

He decided to torture his victim before killing him, to satisfy his twisted craving.

“Alright! Boss, you just watch!”

A muscular man of about one and a half meters tall, but with immense strength, stepped out from the crowd.

Just as he was about to make his move, Julius Reed lifted his head, looking at the dilapidated old building and asked, “Which of you is coming first?”

“Huh?”

After hearing his words, Bianca Leocadia frowned and took a look, then said sternly, “Stop playing tricks on me!”

Bianca Leocadia thought Julius Reed was scared and trying to distract them to seize an opportunity to escape.

But before he could finish his sentence, a figure dropped from the sky, landing in between the two groups.

“This…’

Bianca Leocadia was shocked inside. He pointed the triangular military thorn in his hand at the man and asked, “Who are you!”

Instinctively, he thought it was a helper called by Julius Reed.

The ability to appear silently and unnoticed by so many people undoubtedly meant this was no ordinary person.

At the very least, his capabilities must be above his own.

“You? You also want to know who I am?”

As soon as the man spoke, everyone sensed something was off.

This voice, it’s not a local’s. Clearly, he’s a foreigner!

“Stop with your tricks! If you know what’s good for you, get lost, or I’ll take care of you too!”

Bianca Leocadia didn’t want any complications at this moment. He just wanted to kill Julius Reed and collect the fifty million reward.

“Hey! Mind your tone!”

The man turned around, and by the moonlight, they could see that he was a blonde, blue-eyed man wearing a black jacket, his entire outfit giving off a metallic vibe.

“Heh! I’ll say it one last time, if you don’t leave, we will kill you too!” Bianca Leocadia warned with a frown.

Not knowing the stranger’s strength, he dared not act rashly.

“Can’t you hear what our boss is saying? Scram!”

Although Number Three was short, he stepped forward, pointing at the man:

“Scram!”

Whoosh!

The man suddenly raised his hand.

“Futile rage!”

Thump!

Number Three’s body instantly fell to the ground, while several darts had somehow appeared in the man’s hand..
