Chapter 214: Chapter 213: Leaving a Way Out_l
Translator: 549690339
Under the moonlight of the night, Julius Reed was like an unsheathed sword, leaving behind only a shadow in the air!
The Night Wolf had survived countless life-and-death battles, and even he, known for his agility, could feel the breath of death coming straight at him!
This caused Levi, whose mind had been clouded by anger and irritation, to calm down instantly.
Slice!
Relying on the sound, he swiftly brought down the dagger in his hand!
Clang!
The next moment, a dark figure appeared behind him, and the dagger in Levi’s hand was also hit by a powerful force, causing his whole body to be shaken backward!
The dagger flew from his hand and nailed into the old building’s wall, burying itself up to the hilt.
Levi’s hand felt as though it had been broken, as intense pain continued to radiate through it.
Such a wretched state was in stark contrast to his earlier domination over Bianca Leocadia and the others.
The hunter he was just now, like prey at this moment, was being toyed with by others.
“Damn it! I’ll tear you to pieces!”
With his scales touched in reverse, Levi became incredibly violent. He steadied himself, placed both hands on the ground, and viciously kicked off with his feet!
Dust flew up from the ground, and Levi lunged at Julius Reed like a starving wolf!
Faced with Levi’s gamble of a last stand. Julius Reed smiled. shook his head.
Whoosh!
Levi’s body slammed hard against the outer wall of the old building!
“Cough cough..
He knelt on one knee, blood dripping constantly from the corner of his mouth, looking utterly pitiful.
“Continue!”
Julius Reed looked down at him from a higher position, his tone filled with mockery.
This stimulated Levi once again, but any movement made his body feel like it would fall apart.
“Why have I never heard your name before!”
Levi’s eyes were filled with unwillingness and shock.
After receiving an invitation from Deep Cold, he had briefly looked at Julius Reed’s information. Although he had overestimated the young man in his mind, he still underestimated his strength.
He himself was a ranked individual, but now he found himself being beaten without the power to fight back.
What was even more strange was that such a formidable person was an unknown?
“You think everyone’s like you guys, afraid the whole world won’t know when they have some skills?”
Julius Reed replied with a laugh, his tone clearly conveying contempt.
“My master…”
“I told you, I was right beside you at the time!”
Julius Reed interrupted Levi’s words.
When master and apprentice had been in danger back then, Julius Reed was skiing in the Himalayas. By chance, he saw a bitter fight and, out of boredom, stood not far away, witnessing everything that happened.
Having seen the coldness and warmth of human relationships for thousands of years, such an incident was really nothing to him.
“Ha! Since you’re unwilling to reveal it, then forget it! Today I’m in your hands, make your move!”
The Night Wolf certainly didn’t believe that Julius Reed had been nearby at the time.
To his mind, that was just a perfunctory remark. But it’s the survival of the fittest—having lost so thoroughly, he had no right to inquire.
He hadn’t been without thoughts of fleeing, but the enormous gap in strength between them made him utterly abandon that idea.
No possibility of escape.
Better to die with some dignity.
Recalling Deep Cold’s words from before made him curse those generals in his mind.
“I could give you a chance! If you are set on dying, then forget I said anything.”
Julius Reed shrugged and showed no intention of making a move.
Yet, these words were a lifeline for Levi.
Having reached the pinnacle that countless people yearned for, how could he be willing to die just like that?
Even now that he had retired, he possessed a wealth that could not be spent in several lifetimes.
Only a fool would choose death.
“I hope you are not playing games with me!”
He suddenly became tense.
Was he being given hope only to be plunged into despair?
After all, in a world where the strong preyed upon the weak, the victors typically killed the losers as a mark in their own careers.
Including Bianca Leocadia and others just now, Levi hadn’t thought about showing mercy when he struck.
“Actually, it’s very simple. You are a Shadow Warrior, a very strong Shadow Warrior. Although you’re not enough to take on with just one of my hands, it’s undeniable, your ability is strong!”
The words of Julius Reed made Levi both happy and sad.
Such a powerful figure praised him, but the phrase about not being enough to take on with just one hand also stabbed at his heart.
There was no helping it; in the world of Martial Artists, strength was paramount.
“What would Mr. Reed have me do?”
Levi asked bitterly.
In Europe, he was the renowned Night Shadow Warrior, whose time to harvest lives began as soon as night fell.
But now, in a city in the East, he was kneeling on the ground, begging like a dog with its tail between its legs!
If others on the list knew, they would surely ridicule him.
“Kill a few people for me, how many exactly, I have yet to decide. But the first one is from the Brandon Family of Gonzalez City. I don’t care how you do it, just make it clean!”
Julius Reed commanded coldly.
Yet these words felt unbearably hard on Levi’s ears.
Not yet sure how many, so he was to remain on call at all times?
“Exactly how many?” He lifted his head to ask.
Whoosh!
In reply, Julius Reed’s powerful and heavy kick broke two of his ribs on his chest.
“You can leave, but as long as you’re still in this world, killing you would be as easy as flipping my hand! ”
Julius Reed looked down at Levi lying on the ground, speaking with a tone devoid of any emotion.
“Understood!”
Levi no longer bore any semblance of a Western gentleman; instead, he struggled to get up, covered in dust like a homeless wanderer.
“Damn Deep Cold! ”
He cursed those few people again in his heart.
With nothing better to do, why did he have to offend such a formidable character?
“Someone from the Brandon Family, or…”
Levi kept his head down, not daring to look into Julius Reed’s eyes.
But Julius Reed did not answer him; he simply walked away from the uninhabited old building, heading toward the night market.
Boom!
Levi let out a roar of anger, smashing a brick wall to smithereens!
By the time Julius Reed reached the entrance of the food stall, he saw Miguel Abbott and others looking around anxiously.
They didn’t know where Julius Reed had gone and could only wait for him there.
“Mr. Reed, you’re back!”
Upon seeing Julius Reed’s figure, the group hurried over to him.
“Should we send someone to keep an eye on Roosevelt Shaw?”
Miguel Abbott explained with some concern: “Irving Harris is by no means a good sort! By letting him go today, he will not be grateful, but will intensify his efforts to retaliate against you! Now that Irving Harris has been thwarted, his employees have been extremely accommodating, but what if one day Irving Harris strikes back…”
“I’m not a Saint; I have no interest in managing so many affairs, you deal with these minor matters on your own in the future. However, there is one thing I want you to remember!”
Julius Reed looked coldly at Miguel Abbott: “No one can escape from the palm of my hand. Today I let him go because I can kill him as easily as flipping my hand.. Whenever I wish, he goes straight to heaven!”
