chapter 801-850

Chapter 801 At this moment, Fiona spoke again, smiling, “Right, Mr. Watson, not only is this son-in-law of mine a good fighter but he’s also specialized in certain skills. I called him over today in the hopes that he would be able to help you!”

“Really? Tell me!”

Lawrence smiled, curious.

“My son-in-law is a good medical practitioner and knows all about medicine. Let me tell you about a young mistress of a first-class aristocratic family in Eastfield—Sharon George of the George family. She had been suffering from a strange illness, one that made her obese…”

Fiona started narrating jackie’s heroic deeds. After she finished her story, she said, “Tell me, isn’t he amazing? He actually helped her to lose weight within three days. She went from a huge fatty to a slim and gorgeous young woman!”

“What a miracle. To be able to lose so much weight within three days, he must be fantastic at what he did!”

Irene exclaimed when she heard that. She looked at jackie. “Look at me. I’ve been gorging myself with plenty of good food, and now there’s so much fat around my waist,” she said. “Can you give me one of those miracle pills? Help me to lose weight too. Please?”

jackie only flashed a wan smile when he heard that. “I do have the medicine, ma’am, but I can’t just give it to you,” he replied. “It’s extremely expensive. You can’t just hope to buy it with a small sum of money!”

Irene suddenly felt embarrassed. “No problem. No problem at all,” she quickly said, grinning. “Tell me how much it is. I’ll buy it from you. Of course, something so effective would be of high value!”

Jayden listened to the exchange, and suddenly felt displeased. “You’re being so calculative. We treated you to this meal worth over a million dollars, and you’re still asking for money for a single pill? Have you not seen money in your life before?”

Here, he paused for a while before continuing leisurely, “But we don’t lack money either. Tell us how much it is then. We’ll just treat it as charity!”

However, jackie simply smiled. “The Watson family should be able to pay for the medicine, right? Since you all have so much money,” he said. “It’s actually not that expensive. One only costs three hundred million!”

“Three hundred million! A single slimming pill costs three hundred million! Are you kidding me?”

Jayden immediately cried out, but quickly plastered on a smile. “Looks like you’re trying to swindle us, knowing that we’re rich, eh?” he said.

jackie answered, “I already told you that the medicine was expensive. It’s because the base cost is really pricey, and more importantly, it’s effective! Someone like your mother wouldn’t have much to lose anyway. If she takes the pill now, all her fat will melt off by tonight!”

“Is it that miraculous?”

It was evident that Jayden was cynical. “All right then. Three hundred million it is,” he said. “Give your account number to me and I’ll make the transfer now. But if my mother hasn’t lost weight by tomorrow, I’ll have your head. Do you still dare to make this deal?”

“Why wouldn’t I?”

jackie straightaway supplied his account number. It was difficult for Jayden to go on, but he could not back out of the situation now, so he could only clench his teeth as he transferred the three hundred million dollars to jackie.

Selena and Fiona were both well aware that jackie was indeed extorting the other man, simply because the latter acted so high and mighty.

However, they never thought that Jayden would actually buy jackie’s medicine for the sake of preserving his dignity. Since they had the opportunity to earn three hundred million dollars with such little effort, they naturally did not bother to stop him.

Besides, jackie had transferred the billion dollars he had earned the last time to the Taylor family’s bank account just yesterday. Now they were lacking money. Selena was also worried about what they would do in the future. Of course she was happy, being able to earn this three hundred million.

jackie quickly stuffed his hand into his pocket and wiggled around in it. When he took it out, a single pill lay on his palm. He thrust it toward Irene. “Your son is pretty good, ma’am. He’s a filial one. This is the slimming pill that he bought for you!”

Irene was a little taken aback. “You simply just put such an expensive medicine in your pocket? And it doesn’t even come in a box?”

jackie grinned. “It’s actually not that precious—at least, not to me. It’s just three hundred million dollars, am I right?”

Chapter 802 jackie’s words rendered Irene, Lawrence, and the others speechless again. It was obvious that this fellow jacked up the price. Never mind that he extorted three hundred million dollars out of them, now he was actually saying that the medicine was not that precious.

“It truly isn’t that precious. It’s not expensive at all if it turns out to be effective for Mother. And it isn’t that precious either, now that I think about it. After all, your head itself is probably worth three hundred million. It’s a pretty good head to whack!”

Jayden said, laughing.

“Come. Let’s eat!”

Lawrence spoke, grinning. He knew what sort of a person his son was. Everyone smiled while Jayden spoke, as though he were cracking a joke, but if jackie’s medicine turned out to not be the least bit effective, and with the three hundred million dollars he made them spend, he would truly be digging his own grave.

Besides, if not for his wife cajoling them to meet the former belle of their class and to see how she was doing, he would not have wanted to come. It felt as though this meal was a waste of their precious time.

Fiona smiled. “You’re so humorous, Young Master Watson. You really know how to joke around!”

Here, she looked at Irene beside her. “I remember that the old master of the Watson family suffers from some strange disease,” she said. “After we finish eating, let’s get my son-in-law to take a look at him. He may be able to cure the old master!”

“Never mind about that. My grandfather had been undergoing treatment for a few months in America, and he still isn’t any better, even though their medical industry is so advanced. How could your son-in- law hope to cure him?

“I’m already dubious about the slimming pill he said would help my mother lose weight. My grandfather is already so old. If he doesn’t cure my grandfather but kills him instead, he probably won’t die alone. He’ll be dragging you, Aunty, as well as that darling daughter of yours!”

Jayden swirled the glass of red wine in his hand, speaking slowly, a frosty smile on his lips.

It was a threat. Definitely a threat.

Fiona was a little frightened. She looked at jackie. “ jackie, if you are unsure of this, don’t do it,” she said. “We’ll just head back after we are done eating. After all, Old Master Watson’s disease isn’t any regular illness. He didn’t even recover after receiving treatment overseas.”

“I’m fine with it. I don’t know Old Master Watson anyway!”

jackie shrugged his shoulders. He was truly fine with it. If Fiona had not bullied him into coming and diagnosing the Watson family, he would not have come.

Furthermore, the family put on such high airs. He really did not want to cure the old man.

“You’re fine with it? I think you’re just a quack. You know that you can’t cure my grandfather’s disease, so you’re suddenly guilty.”

Jayden flashed a mirthless smile. “But it’s probably for the best. We came here to search for the best hospitals and the best specialists for treatment. How could someone like you compare to a specialist?”

jackie smiled after he heard that. “Indeed, there’s no room for comparison. Because I don’t even bother to compare myself to them. Sharon George had seen plenty of specialists here before, but they were all useless anyway.”

“Really? I’m really curious now, did you learn western medicine or Chinese medicine?”

Lawrence smiled. “My father says that some of the Chinese medicine practitioners are pretty good. Honestly, I want to try it out—because I think that western medicine is the best. So much better than Chinese medicine. But the old man insists that Chinese medicine is better, that it could possibly cure his illness. So I want to look for a Chinese medicine practitioner this time and try it out to shatter his illusions about it!”

It was evident that Lawrence looked down on Chinese medicine, speaking as though it were completely good for nothing.

“I am a Chinese medicine practitioner. Your father has pretty good taste. The practice has been attracting less and less attention because there are less disciples of Chinese medicine now. Most medical students learn western medicine, totally oblivious about Chinese medicine!”

jackie gave a wan smile. “But Chinese medicine can cure plenty of diseases that western medicine can’t. I really think that Chinese medicine is much better than western medicine!”

“If that’s the case, why don’t you come over to our house and put your words into practice? It’s possible that you can’t even diagnose what disease he has. Grandpa will die speechless. Hah!”

Jayden actually guffawed.

Chapter 803 jackie frowned as he observed the grin on Jayden’s face. He felt as if the father and son duo did not care much about the old master’s illness.

Besides, they looked like they were finding doctors for the old master, but there was not a single trace of sorrow within them—it was hard to tell if the old master was on the verge of death.

“Sure. I’ll give it a shot since you two disregard Chinese medicine so much. I don’t have much to do anyway. I’ll just help to cure the old master then!”

jackie stretched his arms and spoke languidly.

His eyes were pinned onto Lawrence, who sat across him.

He quickly noticed that the corners of the other man’s lips twitched when he mentioned that he would cure the old master. He was agitated.

However, his agitation quickly dissipated, as if it had never been there.

“All right. But how much will you charge us this time, jackie? You can’t just do this for free, right? There should at least be a consultation fee, even if you can’t treat him!”

Lawrence asked, smiling.

“Don’t worry. I won’t charge you anything this time, and I won’t charge after I treat him. Why would I want to charge you, after all, I can demonstrate the miracles of Chinese medicine and show you how it’s much better than western medicine!”

jackie spoke just as he was chewing on his food, so his words were muffled.

Soon enough, they all finished their meal. Fiona was slightly displeased at how jackie said that he would provide treatment for free, but she decided to remain silent when she thought about how he had taken three hundred million dollars earlier.

Not long after, they drove toward a villa.

“The old master is upstairs. I’ll take you there. My sister has hired a specialist. I don’t know if she’s back!”

Jayden grinned as he spoke. He brought jackie and the others to the second floor.

Just as they arrived at the entrance, they saw the aforementioned specialist walking out of the room.

“Has he done the diagnosis? How did it go?”

Lawrence immediately stepped forward and asked when he saw this.

The specialist shook his head. “I couldn’t find anything. We’ve run all the scans we can with our machinery, but we didn’t find anything wrong. It’s so strange!”

“Ah. It looks like the doctors here are no good either!”

Jayden released a sigh.

Melinda twisted her lips into a bitter smile. “We still have to try no matter what. I’ll go to another hospital tomorrow and get someone over to diagnose him!”

It looked like Melinda was truly worried about her grandfather’s health. After she spoke, she even turned her head around to look at the old man lying on the bed in the room. Her brows were tightly furrowed.

“Let me take a look! I’m confident that I can treat him. I can see everything from a single glance.”

jackie smiled as he spoke.

Chapter 804 “No way. You can tell what the problem is just–just by looking at him?”

Melinda’s lips parted slightly. She was extremely shocked, suspecting that she had misheard him. She looked at Irene. “Mom, who–who’s this? Is he a doctor?”

Irene nodded her head. “He’s my close friend’s son-in-law. He says that he’s a Chinese medicine practitioner. As for his medical skills, I’m not too sure of it myself!”

“What are you saying? I’m a specialist in this area, and I’ve treated many strange diseases before. I’ve got quite a good reputation in Eastfield. We couldn’t find a single problem even after running so many

checks just now, and now you’re telling me that you can tell what’s wrong from a single glance? Bullsh*t!”

jackie’s words made the specialist feel as though he had just been punched in the ears. He was just about to leave with a few other doctors, and he was unhappy after hearing jackie’s words. He instantly wheeled around and spoke to jackie.

“You must be lying. Dr. Newman here is extremely experienced with near-death patients…”

Another doctor also straightaway told jackie.

After listening to the doctors saying all this, Melinda, who had been quite elated, suddenly sunk into a glum mood. She could not be sure of him now. The man looked young, and he did not perform any proper checkups. How could he diagnose anything from a glance?

“If my guess is correct, sir, he’s been poisoned!”

jackie smiled and told everyone.

As he said this, he purposely sidled his gaze toward Lawrence. Interestingly, the man’s expression contorted slightly when he heard this.

However, he quickly smiled. “No way. My father has been ill for so long. How could he have been poisoned?” he said. “He would have died long ago if he was.”

“Cough cough!”

The old master seemed agitated when he heard this. He immediately coughed twice, and blood spluttered out of his mouth.

“Grandpa!”

Melinda quickly ran over and used a tissue to mop up the blood. “Your illness is truly worsening, Grandpa. What should we do?”

After she said that, she ran back and grabbed jackie’s hand. “Sir, has my grandfather truly been poisoned? You can tell? Since you know that he’s been poisoned, can you tell what poison it is? You’ll know how to treat it, right? Don’t worry. Just treat him. We have the money for it if you do!”

jackie suddenly felt embarrassed, his hand being gripped by a woman—and a young woman in her early twenties, at that. He gently extricated his hand. “Miss Watson, I’ve just taken one look at him for now,” he said slowly. “I haven’t done a proper checkup on him, so I don’t know the full condition. I’ll need to take his pulse before I can be sure of anything!”

“All right. Please do so, sir!”

Melinda spoke excitedly, as though she were holding on to a lifeline.

“Stop talking rubbish. How could he have been poisoned? If poison were the case, how could we have completely missed it? The old master simply lacks strength now, and everything is normal asides from the fact that he coughs blood.”

Dr. Newman huffed indignantly.

They had been running the checkup for half a day now, using all sorts of machines to run a diagnosis, and still, they could not tell what was wrong with the old master. Now if a young upstart was able to tell everything from a single glance, it was akin to slapping all of them across the faces.

It would be extremely embarrassing if word of this got out!

jackie noticed that the specialist would not let the matter drop, so he said, “A piece of advice for you, leave now. At least you’ll be spared of the embarrassment if I can really tell what’s wrong!”

Chapter 805 “You!”

The doctors were all infuriated.

“All right. I’m going to give Old Master Watson a check-up now. No disturbances allowed. I just need one of you to remain. As for the rest of you, please go out and shut the door!”

In the end, jackie laced his fingers behind his back and spoke in a no-nonsense tone, “Miss Watson, please stay behind. The rest can go!”

“All right. Let’s get out of here. We’ll let jackie do the check-up properly!”

Lawrence’s expression was dark. He took a long look at jackie, thinking that the young man would probably not be able to detect anything.

In a flash, everyone got out and Melinda closed the door behind. She then came before jackie. “Doctor, is there a reason why you asked me to stay behind?”

“Your grandfather can’t even talk properly now, right? His throat seems fine, but he just can’t seem to conjure the energy to speak. Is that right?”

jackie did not answer Melinda’s question; instead, he returned it with another question.

“That’s right. You–you haven’t even taken his pulse. And you know his condition so well!”

Melinda was even more surprised. She felt that it was possible that jackie had the potential to diagnose her grandfather.

The old master looked at jackie. He opened his mouth, wanting to say something, but he did not have the strength to do so. Nothing but silence rang out.

“Ah. I have a few things I do not wish to tell you. I fear that you would not be able to handle it!”

jackie released a breath. Then he added, “I told you to remain because I could tell that you have a pretty good relationship with the old master. I don’t trust anyone else!”

“What are you talking about, sir? You’re saying that my grandfather has been poisoned, and now you’re telling me you don’t trust anyone else. Don’t tell me, my father…”

It was obvious that Melinda was not an idiot. She quickly caught on and clamped a hand over her mouth in shock.

“No way. Why would he sabotage Grandpa?”

Melinda tried to remain as calm as possible, flashing jackie a bitter smile. “Actually, you didn’t have to worry all that much, sir. I can take it,” she said. “I’m the young mistress of this house, but they don’t like me all that much because I was adopted and raised by Grandpa. The person who loves me most in this family is my grandfather, and I really don’t want to see him die. If he does, I’ll have no relatives in the Watson family. I’m scared that they’ll bully me even more— they might even kick me out!”

Realization cracked over jackie. Now only did he understand why Melinda was so worried about her grandfather, why she loved him so much. So that was the nature of their relationship.

After he listened to her story, he smiled. “If that’s the case, I can relax now,” he said. “Then I can tell you a few things. I truly suspect that your father, Lawrence, or your brother has something to do with your grandfather’s poisoning. As for why, I do not know.”

Here, jackie paused to glance at the old man lying on the bed. “But I believe that the old master will know. Fortunately, I came today. If I had been two or three days late, it would be impossible to save your grandfather even if the gods themselves came!”

He walked over to the old master’s side. jackie whipped out a wooden box from his pocket and opened it, revealing plenty of silver needles within.

“I know you can hear me, sir. I’ll perform acupuncture on your first then you should be able to speak temporarily. But it’s only for a short while, and you won’t be able to talk much. You’ll have to rest well after that. I’ll write a prescription for your granddaughter in a while. She’ll go pick up the medicine, and you’ll have to use it in your bath. Soak yourself in the solution for half an hour every day. You should be able to fully recover if you continue for a month!”

jackie stuck a needle into the old master’s arm as he spoke.

Chapter 806 “That’s it?”

Melinda was taken aback for a while, then she spoke.

“The poison has been in his body for a long time now. It’s a very strange poison. It’ll only chip away at his life bit by bit. All the machinery that those western doctors use, won’t be able to detect anything. Even I could only use my medicine to seep through his skin bit by bit, slowly expelling the poison. There’s definitely no short-term solution to this!”

jackie explained, smiling wanly.

“If what you said about my father being the one who administered the poison is true, what should we do? He’ll definitely continue to administer the poison!”

Fear rippled throughout Melinda once she gave it a thought.

“Gasp!”

At this moment, the old master abruptly spat a mouthful of poisoned blood, and he regained the ability to speak.

He was extremely weak. When he spoke, his voice was harsh and gravelly. “That ungrateful b*stard! That good-for-nothing, backstabbing, lying moron! I really want to strangle him with my own two hands!”

“Grandpa, you can talk now! Tell me, why did Father poison you?”

Melinda immediately asked.

“That ungrateful pig! I advised him to stop doing unsavory business, to stop doing all sorts of monstrous deeds. He must have poisoned me in secret!”

The old master clenched his teeth. Fury practically steamed from his ears.

“When? Can you tell me, sir?”

jackie asked, looking at the old man.

“They came here for other reasons as well. They’re going to exchange goods with a group of people here—photos taken in secret, that sort of thing. Besides, Green Sky Hall kidnapped plenty of young women, and they’re going to use them for the exchange as well…”

The old man looked at jackie; a wry smile twisted his lips. “Why am I telling you all this? It’s no use telling you anyway. My son has zero consciences or remorse over what he does now.”

“Of course Green Sky Hall would continue to run this business. But I never thought that they would even kidnap young women to send to America!”

jackie clenched his fists when he heard what the old master had say. “They’re going to do the exchange tomorrow, is that right? I–I’ll make sure to wipe them out tomorrow!”

After he said that, he looked at the old master and spoke, “Rest and recover in peace, sir. You’ll get better. As for your son, he does deserve to die. Don’t worry. Unless he decides to not make an appearance tomorrow, he will definitely die!”

“And you are?”

The old master stared at jackie, confusion filling his gaze. Was this young fellow, not a doctor? Unless he was hiding some sort of terrifying secret identity.

“You won’t blame me, right, sir? If I kill your son.”

jackie posed a question, instead of answering the question.

The old master went silent for a few seconds. In the end though, he said, “He dug his own grave if he were to die. But he brought quite a few good fighters over here. I’m afraid that it’ll be difficult to kill him. Furthermore, Green Sky Hall is very powerful here. So I think that there is a huge possibility that you will die if you dare to meddle with this!”

“No need for you to worry about this, sir!”

jackie kept his needles. “I hope that you’ll be able to recover soon and live out the rest of your days in peace with your granddaughter. Once I open that door, I trust that both of you will pretend that you never heard whatever that I said, right?”

“Don’t worry. I don’t have a son anymore, anyway.”

It was obvious that the old master no longer cared. He had tried to stop his son from continuing down the wrong path, but he never thought that his son would actually try to kill him. This caused turmoil to roar within him.

After the old master spoke that last sentence, his voice gradually became hoarser, and soon he was back to not being able to speak again.

Meanwhile, jackie pondered for a moment. Then he brought Melinda over to the balcony. “Prepare yourself. Both Lawrence and Jayden are rotten to the core, but Irene might be okay,” he told her. “If they truly go for the exchange tomorrow, I’ll follow them and kill them.”

Chapter 807 jackie paused for a moment before continuing, “When the time comes, it’s obvious that Irene isn’t capable of managing Watson’s properties and companies, so you have to be ready to take over. I’m telling you in advance so that you’re prepared mentally as well.”

Melinda’s eyes roamed around the room upon hearing jackie’s words, then she responded, “Mr, thank you for reminding me. It’ll not be easy for me to take over alone. I, too, despise what they did. After I have taken over Watson’s business, I think I’ll sell off some assets and return to Daxia and start some investment business.”

“Hmmm…” Melinda paused for a second then continued, “Grandpa Watson wanted to return to Daxia a long time ago. I believe he will help me in managing the business after he gets well. And Grandpa can finally enjoy his twilight years happily and peacefully in our motherland, Daxia.”

“Mm!”

jackie’s eyes lit up immediately upon hearing Melinda’s plan. “I like your plan. It’s brilliant! All right then, I’ll open the door now!”

In the next moment, jackie stretched out his arm and opened the door of the room.

As soon as the door was opened, Lawrence, Jayden, and the others rushed in.

“How’s it? Did you manage to find out what kind of poison it is? Is there an antidote?”

A concerned look was hanging over Lawrence’s feature, his tone nervous.

Melinda—who was standing beside jackie—sneered coldly in her heart. If it were not from Grandpa Watson himself, that Lawrence had planned to murder him, she would truly think that Lawrence was such a filial son who cared deeply about his old folk.

Now, the pretentious concern that the other party showed, was obviously revealing his interest in knowing whether jackie was able to treat Old Master Watson. His heart was uneasy; he fought hard against a rising panic that almost unmannered him. He was afraid that jackie could really cure Old Master Watson.

“Hmmm…I’m somewhat sure!” jackie smiled slightly in return.

“Really?”

Lawrence’s face sank at his words and his heart was in a complete state of panic.

jackie, however, added, “But I’m not too sure, I can only give it a try. I’ve given Melinda a Chinese medicine prescription. Old Master Watson needs to take a bath with the Chinese medicine for half an hour every day. After a month or two, only then you’ll witness the effect!”

“A month or two? So slow!”

The specialist—who stayed behind to witness the whole scene—jeered sarcastically, “You’re bragging, aren’t you? You know that they’re leaving Daxia soon, and even if the medicine is not effective on Old Master Watson, you have nothing to do with it anymore, and they can’t get back to you. Am I right about your wicked plan?”

Nonetheless, jackie chuckled in return. “Chinese medicine tends to take longer to be effective, I can’t help it!”

When Lawrence heard that jackie was not confident in treating Old Master Watson, the heavy boulder in his heart was lifted and he could finally breathe. This brat must be bragging about his medical skill and Chinese medicine knowledge, so he definitely could not cure Old Master Watson’s illness.

“Thank you so much then!”

Lawrence fist-to-palm saluted and thanked jackie.

jackie smiled nonchalantly, “You’re welcome. Old Master Watson and I are fated to meet and I’m a person who is all about fate, hence I’ll naturally save him if I can.”

“Let’s go! We’ll go back first!” After saying his last words to Lawrence, jackie then turned toward Selena and Fiona, urging them to go back.

“All right! I’ll see you off!”

Lawrence quickly walked jackie and the others to the door and saw them off.

The car with jackie and the others in it quickly drove off. Those specialists left as well.

“Dad, do you think he could really treat Grandpa’s illness?”

Jayden was sweating in fear and concerns. “What if he really succeeds in curing Grandpa?”

“This poison that I’ve found was nothing but unique and strange. Most of the doctors in this world probably have not even heard of it. So, I don’t believe that punk could really find an antidote!”

Lawrence grinned coldly. “Tomorrow is the trading day. Nothing is more important than that. We’ll talk about this after tomorrow!”

Chapter 808 In the evening of that day, the men of Green Sky hall finally sensed something strange.

“Master, I have bad news! Three of our elites have gone missing!”

A middle-aged man presented before Hector Zaborowski and reported with his forehead frowning, “And I have gotten another news that not far from jackie’s residence, there were three men who were shooting pictures, were caught and killed. I strongly suspect that those three are our men, and they bumped into the adopted son-in-law and were killed by him, what do you think?”

“What!”

Hector shot up from his chair after hearing the shocking news. “What’s going on with these men? I’ve already told them multiple times to keep an eye on jackie and be careful not to be caught by him! Now what? Trying to show off their bravery by filming the girls near jackie’s residence? Weren’t they looking for death?”

The middle-aged man’s face dulled and darkened. He asked in a worrisome tone, “Master Zaborowski, that punk is hot-headed and impulsive. He killed our men without thinking twice; it’s obvious that we’re nothing in his eyes!”

He paused for a moment before continuing, “I’m not worried about the three men who got killed instead what worries me is that the punk would come at us like last time! You’ve promised that you’d not continue this deed anymore, and now he found out that we’re still doing it, I’m afraid that he will not let us go this time.”

The corners of Hector’s mouth twitched involuntarily. “Gather all the elite fighters here! We have to stop him from coming to our hall. On top of that, I’ll go to my elder brother and ask for some excellent fighters from Kingston hall to stay guard here. I’ll just tell him that we’re short of manpower these couple of days!”

The middle-aged man breathed out a huge sigh of relief when he heard Master Zaborowski’s plan. “That’s a good idea! If we can get a few top-notch hitmen from Kingston Hall, that would be excellent! After all, Kingston Hall hired a bunch of good fighters, and they were never short of manpower!”

“We really have to guard against the crazy brat. Tell our men the same too, they should change their location if they want to continue filming in secret! All right. You may leave now.”

Hector gestured to the middle-aged man to leave. “The big boss from America is here, and we’re going to trade with them tomorrow night. We can’t have any slip-ups at this point!”

…

At night, after jackie returned home, he rang Lana secretly, asking her to get Queenie to observe every movement of the Watson family, and report to him instantly once numerous of the Watsons left the residence.

Queenie squeaked in happiness that she was almost paralyzed with happiness when she understood that jackie—the Supreme Warrior—had given her a task personally. This was an honor to her.

Moreover, the Supreme Warrior had ordered them to come along with him to the scene to warm up. He was afraid that there would be fish that had slipped through the net—runaway, as both parties would bring many people with them.

The next day soon came, jackie, on the other hand, had been waiting patiently for news.

It was only at night, almost nine o’clock, that he received a call from Queenie, informing him that the Watson’s men had left the area, and it looked like they were planning to go out of town.

jackie ordered Queenie to tail behind them and keep him informed of their movement at all times. He then contacted Lana right after and both of them headed toward the outskirts of the city together.

In an abandoned factory not far from the city, many elites from Green Sky hall were stand-guarding and waiting here quietly.

For the exception of Hector Zaborowski from the Green Sky Hall, there were more than 400 people in the factory—several top-notch hitmen, and the rest were some powerful upper-range fighters. They were all gathered here tonight.

Behind them were a bunch of young girls and each of them was stunning and alluring.

These women—around a hundred of them—were crouching on the ground in fear. Their body wobbling in terror and none of them dared to move an inch.

“This batch of girls is of good quality. The people of America are truly fortunate this time, they can enjoy these good quality women.”

Elder Ward smiled blandly. In his hand, there was a flash drive.

“This time we have to make them pay at least 150 million, less than that amount is a no-no! Our women coupled with these photos we took, it has to be worth at least 150 million!”

Elder Castellano snarled bitterly. She was leaning on her cane as usual.

“Of course!”

Two bulky men behind Elder Castellano laughed out loud. One of them said with a smile, “Unfortunately, this time the trading time will be short. Otherwise, there are a few hot chicks here that I really wanted to have a taste!”

At this time, Lawrence—the master of the Watson family together with his son, Jayden have arrived at the abandoned factory. Behind them were hundreds of their men.

“Ha-Ha! It’s been a long time!”

Chapter 809 Elder Ward guffawed unimpressively as he faced the other party.

“You’re right, it’s been a long time. And I heard that this time, you got us some good quality stuff. Let me take a closer look!”

Lawrence chuckled in return.

“The quality is indeed good. And nowadays such quality of young and pretty girls is really not easy to find anymore. Some of us have even gone to other cities to capture them!”

Elder Ward let out another laugh and continued, “Take a good look this time. Some of them are as good- looking as beauty queens in those beauty contests, and you can earn a lot out of them. So, this time our Master has said that the trading price has to be increased, at least 150 million for this batch of goods.

“What? It was always around 100 million or 110 million. You guys are asking too much this time!”

Lawrence’s face sank and darkened.

“No, no, no. Not too much at all! I believe the money that these ladies will bring you would be more than ten times of 150 million!”

Elder Ward, on the other hand, chortled at Lawrence’s remark.

“How about 130 million dollars?”

Lawrence countered with a price after giving some thought to the matter.

“Wow! Boss Watson, do you have to? You should increase the price to 10 billion since you’re filthy rich!”

A familiar voice rang out from nowhere at this time. From the doorway not far from the crowd, came out a silhouette— jackie White.

“What the hell? Who is this f*cker? Aren’t there a few sentries outside?

One of the bodyguards of the Watson family exclaimed deafeningly.

“The sentries? Of course, they’re now with the Grim Reaper!” Published by Nôv'elD/rama.Org.

jackie shrugged his shoulders nonchalantly.

Soon, two more silhouettes behind jackie walked out from the dark, slowly appearing into the crowd’s eyes.

“What? No way! It’s Lana, the Goddess of War, and another, she seems to be the Queen of War!”

Elder Castellano from the Green Sky Hall gasped and had her jaw drop to the ground when the two women appeared before her.

jackie’s sudden arrival had already made her heart pounded frantically and worries washed over her face.

However, the overwhelming number of great fighters from both Watson’s and their side was like a shot in the arm— it boosted the confidence in her. Besides, Green Sky Hall had borrowed three top-notch killers from the Kingston Hall. Hence, in her point of view, it should not post any problem to kill jackie.

Nevertheless, what slipped from her calculation was the arrival of the Goddess of War and the Queen of War.

“Hell no! Did you say the Goddess of War and the Queen of War are here?”

Lawrence from the Watson family was so frightened that his face blanched instantly. He was not afraid of jackie, but the arrival of these two women had almost wet his pants.

Although they brought mountains of great fighters with them, they were not frightened even if a King of War came but to confront the Goddess of War whom they were not known of her fighting prowess, they were frightened to death.

After all, they had never fought with a God-like existence like Lana before, though the fighters they had were amongst the top in the world.

“Master Watson, it was you who exposed your whereabouts and drew them here, right?”

Elder Castellano and the others’ faces sank and dulled as she spoke in a frosty-cold voice.

Chapter 810 “Me? It’s definitely not me! I think it’s you guys who exposed your whereabouts!”

A vortex of anger swirled inside Lawrence as he barked at the people from the Green Sky Hall. “You guys have been living in Eastfield for so long, it must have been your people who were so careless that you guys exposed the location!”

Elder Ward and Elder Castellano exchanged glances, both of them felt guilty in their hearts. After all, jackie this motherf*cker had warned them before about their dirty deed. It was just that their Master promised that he would not do such deed anymore but still gave an order to continue these dirty trades underground.

Besides, he killed three of their men three days ago.

They initially thought that this guy would charge into Green Sky Hall and teach them a lesson, however, they never expected for him to find out their trade tonight and actually came here.

“I think it’s you! Hmph! Our trading location has never been revealed before, how come jackie could find us this time? There is no such coincidence!”

A man from the Green Sky Hall faced the Watsons and snorted coldly. They refused to take the blame as well.

Sheepish glances were exchanged between Lawrence and Jayden; they were guilt-ridden. After all, they met with jackie last night and who knew jackie would find out their whereabouts and brought along a God of War and a King of War? Inside their heart, they knew that it was them who had exposed the location, which led to the current situation.

“Wow. Most amusing drama show I’ve ever witnessed. Do you think this is the time to talk about this?”

jackie, on the other hand, sneered frostily. “It doesn’t matter who exposed the location, it’s not important now. The Grim Reaper is coming to y’all!”

“Who are you? Why are you going against us?”

A cold face was plastered on Lawrence as he shot jackie a vicious stare.

“What did I say? It doesn’t matter anymore, right? The Goddess of War is here with me tonight, it also means that tonight will be your last night on the earth!”

“Kill them all!” jackie waved his hand, sending orders to Lana and Queenie.

Elder Ward and Elder Castellano finally knew what real terror was. They were completely shocked at the sight before them. jackie had actually shouted toward the Goddess of War, moreover, he was the one who gave the order to kill? Did this not mean that the Goddess of War had listened to him?

“Dang it! We’ll fight them! There’s only three of them, I don’t believe that with the number we have, we can’t defeat them!”

Elder Ward gritted his teeth as he yelled toward his men.

“Ah!”

A big and muscular man—who was borrowed from the Kingston Hall—squatted on the ground and stomped on the ground like a sumo. A deep pit formed on the ground; the big guy made a huge pit with

just a stomp. He was on his feet again, and his eyes were full of raw rage. Then he kicked backward, leaping toward jackie at a lighting speed.

“Go to hell, motherf*cker!”

The big man let out a sharp huff, with his balled fist, he charged toward jackie’s direction. The scene was terrifying.

“Damn, such a terrific speed! He has the speed of a King of War, I guess!”

jackie was surprised at the big man’s speed as well. He did not expect an elite from the Kingston Hall to be this powerful and terrifying. If the opponent of this big man was not jackie but others, they were definitely not on par with him.

Nonetheless, jackie clenched his fist firmly and collided with the other party’s fist head-on.

The ferocious attack of the big man was suddenly nullified and he was sent backward a few meters, knocking down whoever behind the big man that was charging toward jackie. His momentum was only halted after knocking down dozens of men.

The big man spurt out a mouthful of blood; the red colored liquid was covering his philtrum and his face went white. And those guys who were knocked down by him were heavily injured as well. Some of them spewed blood like the big man and went down.

“What the f*ck! How strong is him!”

Elder Castellano was weighed down by dread that color drained from her face. Realization finally hit her face hard, that last time jackie had definitely not used his full strength when he was fighting with her. This man was too powerful, no, he was the Grim Reaper to be exact.

On the other side, Lana and Queenie were like wolves hunting in a flock of sheep—ferocious, swift, and certain. Those who were struck by them died instantly without registering what had happened.

Chapter 811 A cold and mirthless smile twisted on jackie’s mouth. He flipped his palm and dozens of silver needles appeared on his palm. He swung his arm toward the enemy; a horde of men immediately dropped onto the floor, the needles piercing straight through their skulls. More than a dozen men died instantly, and there were a number of elite fighters among them.

“It’s not looking good. Retreat!”

Elder Castellano immediately felt that something was wrong. A swing movement from jackie killed two extremely strong fighters from the Kingston Hall in a blink of an eye. Such terrifying combat prowess was not something they could fight back.

In just a few seconds, more than a hundred of their men were murdered and the number of fallen bodies was still rapidly decreasing. They have brought five hundred men for God’s sake!

A stomp of jackie’s leg sent him to the front of a gate, blocking the route. Lana and Queenie, on the other hand, blocked another two exits. They were blocking every possible escape route, not leaving any chance for them to flee.

Blood splattered. No matter which Hall or Family—Green Sky Hall or Watson family—they were from, their final destination was the same—hell.

“ jackie, please, I beg you, please let us go! My-my wife and your mother-in-law are close friends, aren’t they? Not to mention that you and I just had a decent dinner together last night!”

The still-alive Lawrence, watching each and every one of his men fall onto the ground at lighting speed, started to plead for mercy. He was in a complete state of panic that he knelt before jackie.

Jayden, too, plopped onto the ground and begged, “ jackie, we were wrong, we know we were completely wrong. Didn’t we just meet last night? Do you want money? I can give everything to you, please spare us!”

jackie stretched out his arm the moment he heard their beseech. The silver needles that dashed through the wind and nailed on a wall afar before, had miraculously ricocheted off the wall and returned into his palm.

“Spare your life? Didn’t you say that the air abroad is sweeter and fresher than the air over here? That you feel disgusted just by breathing in the air of Daxia?”

jackie let out an icy-cold laugh; his sight slowly moved away from Jayden to Lawrence. “And a b*stard like you, who poisoned his own father, is not even qualified to continue living in this world, let alone ‘use’ the air. Let’s be environmentally friendly and not waste the air, okay?”

“I, I didn’t…”

Lawrence was frightened down to the soles of his shoes; his voice was thick with fear. How on earth did jackie find out the poison plan, how did he know about it?

“Your old man has filled me in from A to Z. He tried to stop you from doing this dirty business, that’s why you poisoned him so that he won’t be a thorn in your flesh. Oh, I’ve also informed him that I’ll take your life!”

jackie waved his palm, silver needles flew out again, cutting through the air and piercing through dozens of men of Green Sky Hall who were behind Lawrence and Jayden and not far from his spot. All of them plonked down onto the ground simultaneously in an instant. jackie ended their lives.

After another ten seconds or so, the rest of the men fell one after another. Only Queenie bore a minor surface wound on her arm, whereas the bunch of young girls—hundred or so—crouched on the ground

in fear; with their body trembling, their face was ashen, and their eyes were wild with terror.

“These sons of b*tches. How could they…”

Lana was seething with anger at the sight of these weak and powerless young girls.

The three of them quickly came forward before the girls.

“It’s alright now, don’t be afraid! We’re here to save you, you’re free!”

jackie glanced at these girls and finally opened his mouth.

“Really? Oh My God, they’re here to save us! Thank you!”

A woman from the group came forward and plopped onto the ground. She knelt before the three and kept kowtowing, “Thank you! Thank you so much! You’re our saviors!”

“Thank you, thank you, saviors!”

The others imitated the woman; they, too, knelt before the three and kept kowtowing to thank them.

“It’s okay. You’re free, go home now!”

jackie waved his hand, and only then did those women stand up, and one by one, they left the horrific place.

jackie, Lana, and Queenie strode outside the abandoned factory, jackie then lit a fire and burned the entire factory into ashes.

Chapter 812 “Should we finish off the people over at the Green Sky Hall?”

Lana asked jackie. The blazing fire was burning ferociously in front of them.

After giving some thought to the matter, jackie shook his head. “They lost a lot this time. Many of their men died, including those elite fighters. What’s remained of the Green Sky hall is merely those useless shrimps and the head of the hall. So, basically, Green Sky Hall is destroyed. They have their shell, but their soul is gone! Today’s incident will be a lesson for them. Keep an eye on them and let’s see what their reactions are in the next few days!”

jackie paused and then only added, “After all, there’s a Kingston Hall behind the Green Sky Hall. If we kill the head of the Green Sky Hall and the rest of their men, I’m afraid that Kingston Hall will not let it go easily. They will definitely intervene!”

Lana bobbed to show her agreement. “Indeed, there’s no evidence left here today, so at most, they’ll suspect you. Let’s see if they’ll stop right here. But if they’re looking for death, the fault is not on us!”

“Good job, guys! Both of you did great!”

jackie flashed Lana and Queenie a warm and genuine smile as he praised them.

“It’s nothing at all! It’s my greatest honor to be at your service, my Supreme Warrior. Please count me in if you have any similar tasks like this today!”

Queenie gazed at jackie with signs of admiration and respect in her eyes.

jackie gave a small smile and took out a tiny bottle of medicinal cream from his pocket. “Take this, your arm is injured! Apply it to your wound and it will heal in no time. You can keep the rest as a backup!”

“Woo-hoo! That’s amazing! Thank you so much, Sir!”

Queenie could barely conceal her excitement. “You’re the Master of the divine doctor, Ethan Hays, so this medicine must be effective and precious. It’s truly my honor to be granted personally such a treasure by the Supreme Warrior. Even if I die because of it, it’d be totally worth it!”

“What nonsense are you spewing? Don’t say such things, okay!”

jackie did not know whether to cry or to laugh at the two ladies before him. He then intervened, “It’s okay for you to call me Supreme Warrior since there’s no outsider here. But in the future, if there are others around, you should remember not to call me that but only jackie!”

“Got it! The Supreme Warrior doesn’t want to reveal his identity!”

Queenie laughed wholeheartedly in return.

Soon enough, the three left the place and went back to their home separately.

At this time, at the Watson’s residence, Melinda could not sleep at all. She knew clearly in her heart that what jackie had uttered to her last night was not at all fake nor false.

Therefore, Lawrence and Jayden’s failure to return home would have huge consequences.

The old master looked much better after taking the medicinal bath yesterday. It seemed that the medicine that jackie had prescribed was truly effective. Perhaps he would be able to speak in a few days.

The seconds ticked past. When morning broke, the many men from the Watson family that had gone out did not return. A smile played at the corners of Melinda’s lips.

“Strange. Why aren’t they back?”

Frowning, Irene stared out of the window. “What business were they discussing? They’ve even kept it from me. And why haven’t they come home even though it’s been a full night?”

Melinda walked over to Irene’s back. “Don’t worry, Mother,” she said, smiling. “Maybe they’ll come back in the afternoon!”

Although she comforted Irene with those words, Melinda was well aware that Jayden and the others would never return.

Chapter 813 However, who was that man they saw yesterday. Lawrence went out with many powerful masters and none of them came back yet. This showed how scary that person was.

“Did something happen? Why aren’t they back yet?” By now, Hector had a darkened expression on his face. He had a bad feeling as he stayed home and was waiting for them to come back.

This time, they sent 400 people and all of them were elites. Around four to five masters went with them and they were also joined by two to three masters from Kingston Hall. He had never arranged for such a huge group of elites to work together.

However, Elder Castellano and the others were supposed to be back latest before dawn but they were nowhere to be seen.

He immediately sent his subordinates to the trading place to find out. His face turned pale when he heard the news they had for him.

The abandoned factory had already been reduced to ashes and none of their people came back. They were obviously killed and their bodies were also destroyed!

“Master, what…what should we do about this?” A middle-aged man who was beside Hector looked at him worryingly. “Who is this man? Why is he so powerful? Is he some huge influence?”

Hector smiled bitterly. “Huge influence? We didn’t offend any powerful people. Apart from that, we’ve always had a great relationship with the other clans. As for the aristocratic families, they don’t cause us trouble so this possibility is very low!” He paused here before continuing what he was saying. “The only person we offended was the guy named jackie White. Apart from that, he killed three of our people. The

only thing I want to know right now is how he knew about our trading place? Apart from that, did he kill all our people by himself?”

“How’s that possible? Didn’t that guy fight with Elder Castellano and the others? Although Elder Castellano was not his opponent, they would have been able to kill him if the entire team worked together, right? Especially when the masters from Kingston Hall were also there? They would have been able to kill that guy if they used the human wave attack, right?” The middle-aged man in front of Hector was in disbelief. He felt that Hector had thought too highly of that young man.

“I’ve felt that this young man was not a simple person when he dared to come to Green Sky Hall previously. I’ve never seen someone with his level of confidence. I’ve seen many great people but I’ve never seen someone so confident!” Hector frowned.

“What should we do then? We can’t get revenge even though we’ve suffered such a huge loss? Master, how should you explain this to our boss? You’ve borrowed so many masters from him and if he knows that they’re all dead, he would not be able to hold back his anger!” The middle-aged man thought about it and said.

“I feel that it’s best to not offend this guy named jackie!” Hector sighed.

In several seconds, his eyes brightened as he remembered something. “Oh yes, didn’t the people from the Eagle Clan want to work together with us? I did not agree with it and asked them to contact the Wilson family. I wonder if they did that or do they have any plans against jackie. I think we should arrange a meeting with them first!”

“Oh yes, master! That is a good idea!” The middle-aged man felt that this was a good plan too.

Soon, Hector went to the Eagle Clan with a dozen subordinates.

…

At the same time, Cecilia Taylor and Kelly Gold were standing in front of the grandest hotel in town, a seven-star hotel.

“Honey, you really plan to have our wedding dinner here? This place must be super expensive!” Cecilia said but was secretly happy about it. Others would definitely be envious of her because of this wedding.

Chapter 814 ”Haha, of course! This is the best hotel here! I want to book the entire top floor. It’s a huge plaza and definitely suitable for a wedding!” Kelly laughed and continued saying. “However, the venue upstairs is slightly expensive and I heard that the booking fee for the venue alone is two hundred million!”

“Really? That…that’s quite expensive, right? Why don’t we change to another venue on another floor?” Cecilia was saying that while feeling very moved. After all, Kelly’s intention was all that mattered.

“No way!” Kelly rejected straightforwardly. “We are only getting married once. Apart from that, didn’t jackie advertise that he’s holding a city-rocking birthday party for his wife? If that’s the case, our wedding needs to be even more grand. Haha, our wedding will be the city-rocking event instead and he will be the ashamed one!”

Kelly was obviously unhappy about what happened the other day. Not only did jackie win 90 million from him but most importantly, he also lost eight bodyguards that day. This caused him to lose his pride.

He wanted to show himself off in front of the Taylors that night. Who knew that…

Hence, he definitely needed to put on a good show this time around.

“What you said makes sense. I’ve always felt that Selena is not as pretty as me but all the young masters like her. They even said that she’s the prettiest woman in Eastfield. I’ve always felt that those people were wrong. I was still young and was not as pretty as I am now at that time.” Cecilia curled her hands into fists as she spoke. “This time, I definitely want to be the brightest presence in the entire city on that day! I want to be the most glamorous person in Eastfield. No! In the world!”

Kelly, who was beside her, was embarrassed by what she said. Truthfully speaking, he felt that even to this day, Cecilia was still not as pretty as Selena. Cecilia lacked certain femininity and it was not something that could be easily obtained.

He would have gone after Selena too if she was not older, married, and with a child. However, he felt that the chances were quite slim as there were many young masters who still refused to give up on Selena.

Hence, he chose Cecilia under these circumstances. After all, Cecilia had a good body, was a lady from a prestigious family, and was slightly younger. In conclusion, Cecilia was the best choice apart from Selena.

“Okay, let’s book the top floor. Let’s go and pay the deposit!” Kelly smiled and the two of them soon found the manager of this hotel.

“I’m so sorry but I’m afraid that the day Sir and Madam chose would not be available!” The manager frowned after she heard what they said.

“Why? I know that the top floor of your hotel is a huge an expensive venue. Unless some rich families are holding some important events, nobody would book the top floor. Hence, the venue would normally be available!” Kelly was slightly unhappy when he heard this.

“I’m so sorry but the venue would be available if you book another day but we really cannot make any adjustments for the day that you have in mind. Somebody had already booked the venue several days earlier!” The female manager laughed and said calmly.

“Several days earlier? Why can’t this person choose another day? Why did they have to choose the same day as us? I’m so angry!” Cecilia was extremely angry as she was very clear what it meant to successfully book the top floor of this best hotel. This was the most romantic and grandest place as it overlooks the whole scenery of Eastfield at night and the lighting are known to very beautiful. By then, Selena would only feel self-abased.

Chapter 815 “Could it be jackie who booked the place? Their event is on the same day as our wedding!” Kelly took in a breath as he recalled something.

“No way! How’s that possible?” Cecilia immediately said. “If this happened previously, he still had some money with him. However, the Taylor family suffered a loss because he hit Young Master Timothy and they lost the South City project. In order to save face and maintain their relationship, jackie transferred one hundred million to the Taylor family!”

Cecilia paused here before continuing. “So I think that he only has one hundred million if we include the ninety million he won from you previously!”

“I see… Didn’t he transfer the ninety million to his mother-in-law? I wonder if Fiona would return the money to him?!” Kelly thought about it and said.

“Oh yes!” Cecilia had a sudden realization. “I almost forgot that jackie had already given the money to Fiona. I know Fiona well and she definitely wouldn’t take out the money given to her. She would rather let jackie lose face and fail to hold a grand birthday party compared to giving him her money!”

“If it’s not jackie, who is it? I haven’t received news about any events held by other families!” Kelly looked at the female manager and asked. “Manager White, I wonder if you can provide us with some information?” In Kelly and Cecilia’s opinion, this was a small issue. Providing information to Kelly meant giving the Gold family face and getting into the Gold family’s good books.

However, they had no idea that Manager White would shake her head. “I’m so sorry to both of you as we need to keep the information a secret! We can’t tell anyone about it yet, but we can let you know that the venue has been booked by an extremely important person!”

Kelly smiled, took several thousand dollars from his pockets, and handed it over. “Manager White, please accept our token of appreciation and it should be fine to give us a hint, right? After all, we’re not here to ruin their event, right?”

“Young Master Gold, it’s best if you take your money back. This time, it’s not about money. If I provide you with the information, I would definitely be fired. This is my general manager’s orders because this person has a very special identity!” The manager smiled.

“If that’s the case, just take the money and tell me if jackie White and Selena Taylor are the ones who booked the place?!” Kelly refused to give up and stuffed the money into the manager’s hands.

Although he was sure that it was not them as they did not have the money to come up with the three hundred million venue fee. However, he had to be absolutely sure.

“Alright!” The female manager looked around before placing the money into her pocket. “I can only tell you that the person who booked the top floor is not the Selena Taylor and jackie White that you mentioned!”

Kelly and Cecilia looked at each other when they heard this. They secretly relaxed and felt lucky that it was not them!

Chapter 816 It was obvious that Kelly and Cecilia unknowingly achieved the understanding that whatever they had to do, it had to best jackie and Selena’s party.

Kelly, after placing some thought to it, voiced his opinion, “If that’s the case, let’s book the other floors! I heard that the level under the top floor is quite good. There are huge French windows and is quite beautiful, too!”

However, Manager White had a strange expression on her with a bitter smile to boot. “I’m really sorry to you both, but that floor has been booked. In fact, the entire hotel is booked on that day.”

Kelly and Cecilia gasped in shock. “How’s that possible? The entire hotel?!” they both exclaimed. “How much does that cost? Your boss wouldn’t have agreed to it without going for at least two billion, right? This is a seven-star hotel!”

“That’s right. Who is this person anyway? They’re so rich!” Cecilia was rather envious as the top floor was the most expensive while the lower floors were cheaper the lower they were. Regardless, the fact remained that it was rather overboard to book the entire hotel.

“It didn’t cost that much, truthfully. My boss only asked for one billion from these people! Consider it as a fifty percent discount!” The pretty manager laughed. “This is the first time I’ve encountered such a huge discount throughout my years of working here!”

“Fifty percent discount?” Kelly and Cecilia were once again surprised by the information relayed by the manager.

Cecilia thought about it before asking again, “Aren’t you afraid that the other party will rent this place out after you’ve given them such a huge discount?”

“Don’t worry. That won’t happen!” The manager chuckled. “The customer booked the entire hotel because it’s much more convenient for the clients to enjoy our facilities, especially the swimming pool and gym on the second floor. They can enjoy everything in the hotel to their hearts’ content!”

“It’s a fifty percent discount! It seems that the other party is a very powerful person. The hotel wouldn’t have given a second-class aristocratic family a fifty percent discount!” Kelly frowned and grew increasingly curious. He wondered who this mysterious person was who booked the entire hotel.

“Young Master Gold, I’ve already told you a lot of information, and I can’t disclose anything anymore. You have a choice to either change your date or the hotel,” concluded Manager White with a smile.

Although Kelly and Cecilia were displeased with the turn of events, they could only nod before they left the hotel.

Once the two reached the plaza, Cecilia turned around and looked at the famous hotel behind her and remarked, “I wonder who that person is. He’s so powerful that he gets a fifty percent discount. The

original price to book the entire hotel is two billion, yet he only needed one billion to make it happen!”

Kelly, on the other hand, sighed. “What can we even do? I never thought something like this could happen. Who knew that we’d clash dates with some powerful people!” Kelly frowned and thought about it carefully before he said, “Still, something doesn’t seem right to me. The four main families and the Drake family don’t seem to have any important events around this time, right?”

Cecilia thought about it before she replied, “Could it be the clans? Maybe somebody from a huge clan is getting married, and they happened to choose the same day as us?”

Kelly thought about it for some time, but he could not put a finger on it; on who could have made the reservation. In the end, he merely offered a wane smile as he commented, “Well, it doesn’t matter who it is. This is a good thing!”

Cecilia was immediately unhappy when she heard this. “How is this a good thing? Are you thinking that this helps you to save money? Are you telling me that you’re not really sincere when you say that you’d like to have our wedding on the top floor?”

Chapter 817 Kelly instantly hugged Cecilia by the waist upon hearing her comment. “Babe, what are you talking about?” said Kelly. “If I didn’t want to have our wedding on the top floor, I wouldn’t have mentioned it in the first place, right? Why should I even go into the hotel and find someone to make reservations? I’m actually thinking that since somebody arranged such a huge event here, many rich businessmen and powerful people will attend the event, right?” Kelly had a cold smirk on his face before he added, “By then, many people would also come to our wedding. Don’t you think jackie would be ashamed when he learned that somebody actually booked the entire hotel? I’m sure that not many people would attend his event!”

Cecilia finally realized that she had misunderstood Kelly, and her eyes lit up. “That’s right! Why didn’t I think of that? Now that somebody booked the entire seven-star hotel, how can jackie and Selena stun the entire city? This place is considered as the highest facility in town!”

“That’s right! jackie is bound to feel ashamed since he paid so much on advertising the event!” Kelly was downright pleased at the revelation. Since somebody played a hand in making things difficult for jackie and shaming him, did that not mean he had no need to host his wedding in such a high profile way? He only needed to make sure that what he did was better than what jackie was doing!

“Also, their advertisements have cooled down within these few days, and they’ve stopped advertising in certain places. I think jackie is running out of money, and that’s why he’s not able to continue advertising the event,” came Cecilia’s eventual reply after being quiet for some time.

“Hey, I have a good idea!” Kelly patted himself on his head. “Since the event is just several days away, why don’t I cash out ten to twenty million and advertise the event for him? The more we advertise about the event, the more ashamed jackie will get later on!”

“Great idea, honey! This is such a great idea!” Cecilia said in excitement.

Kelly then shifted his gaze and, looking at the hotel opposite of where they were, said, “By the way, this hotel located next door is a six-star hotel. It’s almost the same height as the seven-star hotel, and the top floor is a nice venue to be in. Booking the venue is quite expensive, at around one hundred and eighty million. Such a place would definitely bring honor to you and the Taylor family!”

“Honey, you really spoil me! I love you so much!” Cecilia threw her arms around Kelly’s neck and kissed him.

“Let’s go! I want you to be the prettiest bride of the day!” Kelly had his hands around Cecilia as they walked forward. “Oh, of course. Let’s go pick out a wedding dress later! I need to give you a stunning dress!”

At that moment, Fiona was on a shopping trip with several bodyguards, and she—upon spotting them— walked toward Kelly and Cecilia with a smile on her face. “Cecilia, what are you two lovebirds doing here? You guys look so sweet!”

Cecilia immediately replied with a smile when she noted that it was Fiona. “That’s for sure! How can we not be deeply in love when we’re getting married soon? By the way, didn’t that son-in-law who married into your family said that he’ll be hosting a city-stirring birthday party for Sister Selena? There are only a few days left until Selena’s birthday, right? How are the preparations going? Did he book a hotel?”

Fiona’s facial expression turned solemn upon hearing Cecilia’s question. jackie had been staying at home for the recent few days, and he even followed her to the Watson family mansion yesterday. How would he have had time to book a hotel?

The only change she noticed was that jackie bought some accessories for Selena.

“I… I think he hasn’t booked a hotel yet. I’m actually not very sure about this,” came Fiona’s sheepish reply, one that matched the embarrassed smile on her face.

“There’s not much time left, and he still hasn’t booked a hotel? Is it not important to him after all? Does he want to repeat what happened five years ago, with having a simple dinner at home? If he does that with all the advertisements in town, that’d be quite city-stirring!” Cecilia immediately started mocking Fiona. “Of course, this would mean that your family would be humiliated by the entire Eastfield. That’s city-stirring on its own too, right?”

Chapter 818 “That’s right! Why didn’t I think of that? So this is what jackie meant when he said ‘city stirring’, huh? I thought he meant that he’d be hosting a glamorous event! Had he been joking with us the whole time?” boasted Kelly as he crossed his arms at his chest.

Fiona was extremely embarrassed. She would not have walked over to greet them if she knew they would mock her.

Fiona thought about it for some time before she changed the topic of their conversation. “This is something I leave in the young people’s hands. I believe that jackie has his own plans. By the way, have you guys already booked your venue?”

“No, but we’re here to book our hotel today,” answered Kelly, smilingly as he did. “We have our eyes on this six-star hotel, and we plan to book the top floor!”

“The top floor!” Fiona took in a cold breath when she heard Kelly’s reply. “I heard that the venue’s booking fee costs one hundred eighty-eight million, eight hundred and eighty thousand. Not only is it a huge venue, but it even has a sight-seeing area together with a see-through class sight-seeing platform. Apart from that, the entire roof of that floor is made from glass, giving people a view of the sky. There are only three of such glamorous hotels in town!”

“Well, what should I say? This is my wedding with Cecilia, so we need to make it a grand one. Apart from that, the Gold family isn’t short of money, right?” Kelly sighed and said with a smile.

“ jackie said that he’s going to give Selena the best birthday party ever. I think that what he prepares needs to be better than us if he wants to be the best. Right, honey?” quipped Cecilia.

“That’s right. How would it live up to the city-stirring claims if it isn’t?” commented Kelly enigmatically.

“Ahem! It’s best if you guys hurry and book your hotel. I’ll have to go now so I can continue running my errands.” Fiona’s expression was gradually turning bitter. She smiled embarrassingly, waved her hand, and walked away angrily with her bodyguards in tow.

It was only after they walked a considerable distance away did one of the beautiful bodyguards comforted Fiona, “Auntie, don’t get angry. Don’t you worry about anything. Our master would definitely keep his promise!”

“Keep his promise, you say? How much money does he have with him? How can he compete with them when he’s only got three hundred million from yesterday? Their venue booking fees are already around two hundred million, and it doesn’t include expenses!” Fiona laughed. “ jackie really is one of a kind. People always say to do things according to one’s abilities. He’s incapable yet likes to boast all the time. He even advertised about the event all over town! I feel really ashamed even if he doesn’t! I don’t see

him doing anything even as we’re fast approaching my daughter’s birthday!” Fiona walked toward a mall as she was speaking, and she eventually reached a jewelry shop.

She glanced at the shop and was startled. “How’s that possible? That…that diamond necklace that costs nine hundred million has been sold?”

It only occurred to Fiona yesterday about her mistake. The necklace cost 9 billion instead of 900 million.

However, there was an announcement at the entrance of this jewelry store saying that the necklace has been purchased by a mysterious buyer.

It was by reflex that Fiona thought that Fiona assumed the person spent 9 billion for the necklace. “Nine billion for a necklace! That’s rather extravagant!”

Chapter 819 “I wonder who the extravagant rich person is!” blurted one of the beautiful bodyguards.

“That person truly is a rich person,” Fiona resounded. “It hurts when we compare ourselves with other people. How can they be so rich?! Why is my daughter not fated to marry such a rich person? She’s married to that troublesome jackie, and the money he works hard to get is used to resolve those problems.”

With bitterness looming over her, Fiona eventually left after she walked around for a short while.

…

She immediately spotted jackie and Selena leisurely drinking coffee upon reaching home, and this caused her expression to turn more sour than it was.

“ jackie, there are only a few days till my daughter’s birthday, right? Have you booked the hotel?” Fiona casually dropped her shopping bags at a corner of the room with a cold expression on her face. She walked toward jackie and said angrily. “I’m warning you: If you don’t have the money, it’s best if you don’t

try to act like one. You’re our son-in-law, the son-in-law who married into the Taylor family. If you lose face, the entire family will suffer the same fate. Do you understand me?!”

Selena frowned at that moment. “Mother, what’s going on? Why are you still in such a bad mood when you’ve already bought so many things? Did someone step on your tail?” Selena asked calmly when she saw what was going on.

Fiona’s frosty expression, coupled with an equally wintry glare, maintained as she glared daggers at jackie. “Have you booked the hotel?” she repeated.

jackie smiled bitterly. “Mother, don’t you worry about it. I’ve already booked the hotel, and you’ll understand what’s happening in a few more days. I’ll surely keep my promise of surprising Selena!”

Fiona still looked at jackie angrily. “Alright, if you’ve already booked the hotel, tell me which hotel did you book? How many stars does that hotel have?”

Embarrassed, jackie offered a bitter smile as he replied, “Mother, I’ve already told you that it’s a surprise. It doesn’t seem to be a good idea to talk about it now, right?”

“It’s not a good idea, you say?” came Fiona’s anger-laced reply followed by a bitter chuckle. “You must be embarrassed to speak about it because you booked a cheap and lowly hotel!”

“Mother, I don’t really care about these. We don’t have much money now, and although jackie got three hundred million from the Watson family, we still need to be frugal with our expenses and not be too extravagant. Apart from that, jackie and I don’t have a job yet.” Selena smiled calmly and helped persuade Fiona.

Fiona turned to look at Selena upon hearing her reply. “Do you know how Cecilia and Kelly looked down at us when I met them on the streets today? They booked the top floor of a six-star hotel. What’s more, the venue’s rent is already one hundred eighty-eight million, eight hundred and eighty thousand!”

“Oh, I know that place. The hotel is located opposite the seven-star hotel and they’re both right next to each other, right?” jackie could not stamp down his smirk when he heard this. It would definitely be much more shameful for the other party since they chose this particular location. Both venues were right next to each other, and anyone could see the ongoings of the other hotel from the respective venues. By then, Cecilia would definitely regret the choices she made.

“Great! You know that place too!” Fiona was extremely angry. “Don’t do advertisements and say that it’ll be a city-stirring event if you can’t make it happen! I don’t want to be in such a shameful situation like you!”

“Mother, don’t you worry. I promise you that we won’t lose face. By then, you’ll be the most glamorous mother-in-law in the entire world!” jackie smiled confidently.

Chapter 820 “Hmph! I don’t believe in a word you say. I’m warning you: I might attend Cecilia’s wedding if you fail to satisfy me by then. After all, if nobody from our side is attending their wedding, it means that we’re not respecting giving them and the Gold family enough. Do you understand me?” Fiona made a sound of indignation with mouth closed, still not believing in jackie.

“Mother, aren’t you afraid that Cecilia will mock you if you attend their wedding? I’m sure you know her personality well. She’s always looking for chances to look down at our family!” Selena’s face darkened when she heard this and added, “Apart from that, I don’t think that anybody from their family is joining my birthday party. Why should we attend their wedding if they’re not coming to my birthday? Wouldn’t we be asking for it if we do that?”

“Well…” Fiona frowned when she heard what Selena said; she had a point. Based on Cecilia’s behavior, Fiona would definitely be mocked if she attended their wedding.

Fiona paused before she glared at jackie. “It’s all your fault!”

She then picked up what she bought and strode back to her room.

“Honey, ignore what my mother just said. She’s always been a vain person, and she loves to have a sense of proprietary.” Selena smiled apologetically at jackie after Fiona left.

“It’s alright!” jackie laughed before he resumed enjoying his cup of coffee.

…

Meanwhile, Hector Zaborowski went to the Eagle Clan with a group of bodyguards.

“What a surprise, Master Zaborowski! What is such an honorable man like you doing here at Eagle Clan?” Lee Neuman smiled indifferently as he looked at Hector.

“Master Neuman, can’t I pay you a casual visit in my free time?” Hector smiled hypocritically, and his smile seemed so calm.

Lee inwardly smirked. Although he did not know what happened to Green Sky Hall last night, he knew that Hector was here to work with the Eagle Clan to get rid of jackie.

After all, Lee knew his subordinates killed three people from Hector’s Green Sky Hall two days ago and framed it on jackie. Hector, on the other hand, could not bear the thought of his men being killed.

“I believe that Master Saborowski is here today with an agenda!” Smiling, Lee picked up his cup and calmly drank some tea.

He knew very well Hector was the one who should be panicked, not him.

Chapter 821 Hector gave a sheepish smile as he continued, “By the way, didn’t Master Neuman say that you wanted my help to kill jackie? I informed you back then that the Wilson family harbor quite the hatred for him, too. I wonder, have you contacted the Wilson family? Is there any progress on that?”

Lee knew all too well about Hector’s intention just by listening to him. Hector was still refusing to cooperate with them; he wanted them to do the dirty work for him so he would not need to do anything.

The Eagle Clan and Wilson family could work together and helped Hector get rid of jackie.

Lee grinned at him as he replied, “I’ve contacted the Wilson family, and it’s true that they want to kill jackie badly. After quite the discussion, however, we came to the same thought that jackie is a really strong master. His fighting ability is comparable to Kings of War that even if both parties worked together, we might not topple him. Apart from that, he’s killed three hundred of our people before.” Lee purposely sighed aloud before he continued, “We can’t think of anything else. We’re not confident that we can win, not even if both families work together to fight him, and that’s why we can only put this on hold till this day.”

The corners of Hector slightly twitched. He thought about it and said, “How about this: Do you think that we’d stand a chance if the three of us work together?”

Lee was inwardly happy upon noticing Hector’s offer, but he acted calm and replied, “Are you serious this time? You’re not joking, right?”

Hector sighed helplessly and said, “Of course I mean what I say, as we’ve suffered a huge loss after all. We were supposed to trade with the Watson family yesterday, and I estimate that there were around 500 to 600 people from both sides. In order to be safe, I even borrowed two to three masters from my boss, and I don’t know how to break the news to my boss!”

“What happened? Did something serious happen? Did something happen to everybody from your side and the masters from Kingston Hall?” Lee took a deep breath when he heard this news. He was obviously frightened by this news.

Hector nodded. “None of our people and the Watson family’s people returned. I sent someone to check it out and discovered that the abandoned factory we used as our trading ground was burned to the ground. The opponent burnt the factory after he killed our people, and I think he’s destroyed all traces of his crime.”

“Oh my god! Are you suspecting that jackie is the perpetrator? If that’s the case, isn’t his fighting ability too scary? Is he a seven or eight-star King of War?” Lee was shocked. He thought that Hector wanted to get rid of jackie because of the death of three people from Green Sky Hall, but he never thought that Green Sky Hall could suffer such a big loss. As it turned out, they were not as powerful as they claimed to be.

Somehow, Kingston Hall was dragged into the mess as they lost several masters.

Everybody knew that Kingston Hall’s master was someone with a bad temper, and he would definitely avenge his brothers when he knew about what happened!

While it did not show on his face, Hector was internally fretting. “If that’s the case, it’d be really difficult for us to kill him. It wouldn’t work even if the three of us work together, so I plan to go to my boss and get Kingston Hall to lend us a helping hand. The four of us should work together and get rid of jackie!”

“Alright, it’s best if Kingston Hall willingly joins us. jackie won’t be able to survive our attack this time!” Lee stood up in excitement and said, “Why don’t we ask the Wilson family to come over, and we’ll go visit your boss together to discuss how we can eliminate jackie.”

Hector nodded. “We’ll need a huge amount of people and many masters if we’re to kill jackie. Not only that, but we’ll have to make sure that he’s alone when we carry out the attack. I think that guy has people helping him out, and that’s why we lost so many men this time. After all, he had been in the army for five years and must know many soldiers. A person who can survive five years on the battlefield can’t be assumed to be a regular person!”

“Of course. As long as Green Sky Hall and Kingston Hall agree to the plans, it wouldn’t be difficult to kill jackie!” Lee was extremely confident.

Lee was initially wary of Hector, hesitant if he was genuine in helping them out, but it seemed as though jackie had dug his own grave. Not only did jackie disrupt Hector’s business, but he even killed so many

of their people, and this forced Hector to make the decision to join them.

Chapter 822 Not long after, Hector Zaborowski, Lee Neuman, and David Wilson went to Kingston Hall with their subordinates.

The leaders of four powerful families and clans gathered at the same place to discuss how to punish the son-in-law who married into the Taylor family.

…

Meanwhile, tear-filled Timothy Drake laid on his bed alone.

“ jackie, you bastard!” cursed Timothy by reflex, fists balled tightly as he did. “I, Timothy Drake, swear that I’ll kill you!”

He never thought that he would see the day when his private parts would get cut off entirely. He never once thought he would be a real-life eunuch.

On the other hand, his father publicly announced that he suffered a minor injury, and Timothy nearly passed out in white-hot anger.

He could not understand why his father was so afraid of jackie. He did not believe that they could not get rid of jackie with the entire Drake family’s power.

His surprise only grew when James not only handed the South City Group to Tanya but also several other companies, all while he suffered immense pain. This arrangement meant that he had nothing much to do. He could only manage several small cafes and internet cafes in the Drake family businesses.

Timothy despised the fate that befell him. Instead of blaming his recklessness and impulsive behavior under alcohol influence, he blamed it on his father for not avenging him.

With those thoughts in mind, he quickly called Leo Turner and asked him to visit him with several of their brothers.

“Just you wait, jackie. Since my father won’t avenge me, I’ll do it myself,” hissed Timothy as he clenched his fists. “I’m not a person you can push around… I won’t accept this!”

…

Fiona’s displeasure with jackie continued to fester even during dinner. She felt anger overwhelming her when she recalled how Cecilia and Kelly basically made fun of her in the afternoon.

As they ate, Fiona began, “By the way, I suddenly remembered something. Didn’t I tell you guys before how I mistook the pricing of a particular necklace with a lone ruby? I didn’t notice there was an extra zero behind it, and that nine billion dollar necklace has been brought by a mysterious buyer!”

“How’s that possible? Are there really people who’d buy a nine billion dollar necklace? That person must be really rich!” blurted Ben upon hearing his mother’s explanation.

“I wonder which pretty woman is lucky enough to be able to wear such a nice necklace!” Elaine, who sat beside Ben, was rather envious of the fact.

Fiona and Andrew were satisfied that Elaine became Ben’s girlfriend. After all, Elaine was not only pretty, but she also had a nice figure, a sweet mouth, and a pair of lively eyes. It also helped that she was rather rich and was skilled in martial arts.

In Fiona’s opinion, she felt that Elaine was ten times better—or even more—than Xena.

“The shop previously stated that the necklace is used to increase publicity or for exhibition purposes, so it can be considered as the shop’s symbolism. The pricing of this necklace is definitely more than nine billion dollar as it still has lots of hidden value. They wouldn’t have sold it for nine billion dollar under normal circumstances!” Nobody expected that Selena would have quite the knowledge about these

things. “My guess is that the shop must’ve not sold the necklace if it isn’t at least with a twenty billion price tag. I suspect that this mysterious person must be very powerful and had bought the necklace at a very high price!”

“I never thought that my darling would know so much about such things!”

Chapter 823 jackie praised Selena after hearing her theory on the ruby necklace. He looked forward to seeing Selena’s surprise when she would put on this necklace in a few days’ time.

“It’s not hard to know of such things. They’ve used this necklace to publicize their shop for a very long time. They also exhibited this necklace in other cities, so I believe that there were many people who wanted to buy this necklace. All that traffic, yet they never sold the necklace!” Selena drank her wine as she continued, “Apart from that, they spent quite a lot of money on their advertisements, and these are their costs. There’s no way they would’ve sold it for just nine billion.”

“Sigh! What a shame. The son-in-law who married into our family is a useless person. Had he been a capable person, my daughter might be able to wear such a nice necklace!” Fiona sighed and glanced at jackie.

“Mother, what are you talking about? jackie is a very capable person. Such an extravagant necklace is too expensive, and it has nothing to do with jackie’s capability!” Ben immediately spoke on jackie’s behalf. “Apart from that, I don’t think that your son, me, can buy such a necklace even if I work for the rest of my life!”

Fiona was shocked at this. Ben used to side with her and supported what she said, but he had changed sides and was siding with jackie.

Andrew, most of the time, also sided with jackie, and Fiona felt that the two were rather disappointing as they were so easily bribed by jackie.

“I don’t care. I only know that jackie promised that the birthday dinner will be a city-stirring one, and I won’t be satisfied if the party doesn’t meet my expectations. Hmph!” scoffed Fiona before she resumed her dinner.

…

Early the next morning, jackie still looked relaxed and did not seem to do anything for the birthday party. It made no sense to Fiona and Andrew. jackie told them that he was giving their daughter a city-stirring birthday party, but they did not see jackie doing anything or even booking a hotel.

Since he had employed a dozen bodyguards, jackie no longer asked Dennis Howard to continue protecting their family. Still, jackie did tell Dennis to be on alert at all times, that he would inform him should any matter arise.

Jenny was also relieved from the chore of picking up and sending Kylie. She was in charge of arranging the workers’ tasks and paying their salaries.

Nonetheless, jackie did not expect that Kylie and the bodyguards appointed to pick her up would not return even as it was late in the evening.

At that moment, an unknown number rang jackie’s cellphone.

“ jackie, are you the one who killed my brothers from Green Sky Hall?” Hector’s voice could be heard from the other side of the line.

jackie laughed coldly and replied, “I’ve warned you before yet you refused to listen to me, so I taught you a lesson. Why?”

“So it was you. I never thought you’d admit to it, and that fast too!” Hector laughed and said, “If that’s the case, come alone and meet us. Your daughter and your two bodyguards are at our mercy. We’re at the

white tower on the top of the hill at the city outskirts. Remember: come alone. If we catch wind that you’re bringing people with you, we’ll kill your daughter in that instant!”

The corners of jackie’s mouth slightly twitched, but he soon calmed himself down. “It’s Blaze Mountain, right?”

“Yes. Remember what I said and come alone. Our goal is to kill you, so we won’t kill your daughter if you come alone. Of course, your daughter will die if we discover that you’re coming over with somebody else!” With that, Hector hung up the phone.

Chapter 824 Blaze Mountain was not far away from the city entrance, and there was an old white tower on top of the mountain. However, the tower had been abandoned for hundreds of years, and nobody even ventured into the mountain.

jackie placed his phone away and clenched his fists tightly. “You’re the ones who forced me into this. Hmph! So I’m not allowed to bring anybody? Do they think that they can kill me if I go alone?”

With that, jackie drove out of the city and headed for Blaze Mountain.

Hector stood on the top of the mountain and had a telescope with him. With it, he spotted jackie driving toward the destination and, upon reaching the foot of the mountain, parked his car.

“He’s here. This guy actually came alone!” Hector laughed. “Since he came alone, he’s as good as dead!”

“That’s for sure! We’ve prepared a thousand people for him this time! There’s a total of a thousand and two hundred people here, and all of them are elites from different clans. The higher he goes, the stronger our people stationed there are!” said the excited Lee. “We can easily kill him with our human-wave tactic!”

Their words were met with one of jackie’s bodyguards’ burst of laughter. “You guys truly do look down on our master!” She was tied to one of the white tower’s huge stone pillars with Orchid Yames and Kylie. While Kylie sustained no injuries, both she and Orchid were badly hurt. Orchid suffered the most as she had several cuts on her arms and her blood tainted her clothes red.

“We know that he’s good, so we prepared a lot of people for him. This is a continuous battle, mind you, so we plan to tire him out!” Hector laughed. “This guy killed so many of our Green Sky Hall’s masters, thus today’s the day he meets his end!”

Hector smirked as he continued to speak, “After we kill jackie, we’ll slowly torture his wife and this young lady here. We’ll be sure to treat his family with special care!”

Kingston Hall’s master, Tobias Zaborowski walked toward both pretty bodyguards and caressed their faces with a cold smile on his face. “Aren’t the two of you quite strong too? Seems like you’ve been bested by our masters!”

“Hmph! How dare you even gloat about it? You’ve ordered a dozen masters to attack us, and many of your people died. If we weren’t caught up trying to protect Kylie, do you really think that you’d be able to catch us?” Orchid made an indignant sound with her mouth closed, unbothered by the man’s bold claims. “Regardless, your luck’s run out today. How dare you kidnap our master’s daughter? That’s like asking for a death wish!”

Both bodyguards knew how scary the Supreme Warrior was. Nobody had seen his true power, and he would not use much strength even if there were a thousand opponents.

This was the reason they worshipped him. While there were several masters from Kingston Hall who were very strong and had the fighting ability on par with Kings of War, they would not be able to kill jackie.

“You can be stubborn all you want! I think that the highest he can go is the middle of this mountain!” The confident Tobias crossed his arms at his chest. “Kingston Hall has their Four Great Warriors, and one of them is waiting for him at the pavilion halfway up the mountain. Surely jackie would be tired after all the killing, and by the time he reaches that place, our people will be waiting for him there. This is a tactic of war, do you understand?”

Orchid ignored him as she placed full faith in jackie’s fighting ability.

Although jackie’s adversaries were people of large numbers, there were not many true masters. Apart from that, most of them stayed at home most of the time and enjoyed a comfortable life. They did not have much actual fighting experience, and that reduced their fighting ability.

Compared to them, jackie had fought several years with masters of other countries that were no weaklings. Several years ago, the enemy country was extremely strong and Daxia was defeated again and again. The country could only send soldiers to the frontline without stopping.

At that period, the soldiers who served at the frontlines merely went through less than half a month of training before they were sent to the frontlines for a life-and-death war with the enemy.

Hence, during the one or two years when jackie and the others were sent to the frontlines, the soldiers who just joined the war could be described as expendables.

Under such circumstances, only a handful of people managed to survive the war.

Chapter 825 Despite the pressure, jackie managed to rise to the challenge and grew extremely strong. His fighting ability improved significantly along the line as he donned a dragon-shaped mask and had a black sword in his hands.

One after another master appeared after he emerged, and those masters became the current Nine Great Gods of War.

As for jackie, his fighting ability surpassed the Gods of War, so much so that although he was outnumbered, it was no difficult task for jackie to deal with them.

jackie had just reached the foot of the mountain when several bodyguards of the Wilson family rushed toward him. “He’s here! Kill him!”

“So, men from the Wilson family are also here?” jackie instantly smirked as he spotted a few familiar faces. He had just arrived at the foot of the mountain when so many people rushed toward him. He knew at that moment that he would meet many more as he scaled up the mountain.

The sky gradually darkened; the night was destined to be a bloody one.

With the cold grin still on his face, jackie flicked his wrists to reveal several dozen silver needles. With a wave of his hands, the needles flew out like afterimages.

Many people were killed before they even reached jackie.

“This guy knows how to use hidden weapons, and it’s hard to notice them! Be careful!” somebody exclaimed when they saw several dozen people dying just as jackie so much so moved.

“Die!” Standing on higher ground, another burly man jumped up and lunged at jackie with a big, heavy knife.

“Hmph!” came jackie’s small sound of indignation. He moved his hand behind his back, and nobody noticed that he had a dragon-shaped ring on his hand. The ring began to morph as a black sword appeared in jackie’s hand.

The black sword was like a long ruler, black like charcoal. The handle was shaped like a dragon, and there was a black dragon accented on the hilt.

“How did he take that out?” The burly man was one of the Wilson family’s masters, a member of their three protectors with the strength comparable to a major’s.

The man was stunned to see a sword in jackie’s hand, but he could only grit his teeth as he resumed his attack.

He believed that since he was attacking from higher ground, the weight of his heavy knife and his dive would increase his fighting ability. jackie was on lower ground, and there was no way for jackie to block his powerful force.

jackie held his sword horizontally, standing where he stood, unmoving.

Clank!

Following the clattering sound of metal, everybody was stunned by what happened next. The heavy knife in the burly man’s hands was cut open like it was tofu; the incision was hauntingly tidy.

“How’s that possible?!” blurted the burly man. jackie took advantage of the situation and pulled his sword back, only to cut open the man’s head. There was a daunting fountain of blood from the dead man’s body, and the man rolled down the hill.

Chapter 826 “How’s this possible? He’s dead!” The faces of those who were attacking jackie turned pale when they saw the burly man’s body rolled down the mountain with his severed head. jackie’s fighting ability was incredibly powerful, and that sword of his cut through steel like it was mud.

jackie did not even falter after he killed the burly man. He rushed toward the mountain top, jump after jump.

“Attack!”

Apart from the Wilson family’s men, those from Green Sky Hall also made their appearance. The weaker people from Kingston Hall and Eagle Clan also appeared at the bottom of the mountain as they tried to surround jackie there.

jackie’s only fear was that Hector and the others would go against their words. If he was late, they might kill Kylie and the other two bodyguards.

Because of that, jackie chose to ignore the extras and continued to rush up the mountain. He swung the sword in his hand as he slashed and cut down the people that tried to surround him.

Blood spurted all over the place. With a leap, jackie moved several meters forward and killed those who blocked him with just a few swings of his sword before rushing to another place with another jump.

There was no hesitation with the way he moved and killed. The sword moved with his arm gestures, and every move was an uninterruptible attack.

“Boss, do you think that this guy will get to where we are?” In a pavilion halfway up the mountain, a middle-aged woman questioned the middle-aged man in front of her as they heard sounds of clashes that came from below the mountain.

“I believe he would. Otherwise, I’d be disappointed in his fighting capability. It wouldn’t be a problem for him to reach this place if he has the fighting abilities comparable to Kings of War. Still, he might be badly hurt!” The man smiled indifferently and continued, “It doesn’t matter if this person offended another powerful clan. Isn’t he on a suicide mission now that he’s offended our Kingston Hall? Kingston Hall is the biggest clan in Eastfield and is even more powerful than Eagle Clan!”

This middle-aged man was none other than one of Kingston Hall’s Four Great Warriors. He was a tyrannical killer and was exceptionally good at using concealed weapons. Any regular people would have died before they could even get near to him.

“There are over seven hundred people at the bottom, and it’ll be very difficult for him to even get here. I don’t think he’ll reach this place under twenty minutes!” The middle-aged woman smiled. She was also a strong fighter herself and was one of the Wilson family’s masters.

Michael Wilson was also in the pavilion, and as he sat on the other end, he languidly commented. “I’m here to see the guy dying today. He’s no match for you both, especially when he’s all worn out and injured!”

Just as Michael finished, however, they spotted a figure that leaped toward them and was just several meters away within a few jumps.

“ jackie!” Michael’s eyes widened when it registered to him that it was jackie, and he wondered if his eyes tricked him.

They held the belief that jackie would need at least 20 to 40 minutes to reach where they were.

They never expected that jackie would come rather close to them in just five minutes.

It was a difficult feat for a regular person to run up to the pavilion in five minutes, even without obstructions.

It was only then when they spotted the many people that chased after jackie, though most of them were extremely tired from trying to catch up with him.

jackie was light on his feet as he nimbly and swiftly moved; he bulldozed his way forward and went past everyone else.

“F*ck! How did he manage to come so quickly?!” Both the middle-aged man and woman were just as surprised. jackie’s speed exceeded their expectation.

As jackie killed two other people that stood in his way with just two moves, jackie rushed forward and reached the pavilion.

“Michael? It’s been a long time!” jackie smiled coldly and glanced at Michael.

The middle-aged woman rushed toward jackie with a dagger at hand. “Young man, today is the day you die—”

jackie, without breaking a sweat, dodged her attack. With a flick of his wrist, he slit her throat with his knife and killed her in one move.

Chapter 827 Without a second wasted, the middle-aged man threw his concealed weapons at jackie.

jackie instantly grabbed Michael and used him as a human shield.

“You—” Before Michael could register what happened, the thrown concealed weapons had stabbed him.

“Young Master Michael!” The middle-aged man reeled back in shock. jackie’s actions were too fast and he could barely catch up with him. All he saw a vague shadow, a mere silhouette, and jackie had already switched places.

jackie tossed Michael’s body forward and slammed it against the middle-aged man.

The middle-aged man was knocked two steps backward, and just as he was caught up trying to push Michael’s rotund body away from him, jackie had already placed his sword on his neck.

The middle-aged man looked at jackie in surprise. He finally realized how scary the man before him was.

Both him and the middle-aged woman were considered masters in Eastfield. fearless even if they met two or even three-starred Kings of War. There was a possibility that they might even be able to kill these Kings of War.

Nonetheless, they were helpless when they met jackie.

jackie flicked his sword. Blood splattered, and the middle-aged man fell. jackie merely pressed on as he scaled up the mountain.

“How’s this possible?!” There were bodies all over the place, but many could not catch up to jackie.

They knew how strong the middle-aged man and woman were, thus it surprised everyone that they were eliminated all too quickly.

The remaining people stopped when they reached the pavilion, and they began to question their mission.

“Should we continue pursuing him? He’s too f*cking strong. I don’t even think the people up there could stop him!” one of them said after a long period of silence.

“Let’s stop here. The clan masters will surely blame us if that guy dies!” another person said in fright.

“But if the clan masters can’t even hold up against his attacks, we’d be corpses ourselves if we go up! That guy must’ve killed half of the people here as he went up!” One of the elders thought about it and, with gritted teeth, spoke, “If that’s the case, we’d be on a suicide mission if we go up now. Why don’t we rest for a few minutes before we go up?”

The others kept quiet, but nobody continued to go up the mountain. They could not even catch up with jackie the entire time and were frightened by the road littered with corpses. The scene was too much of a nightmare, even for people who were constantly in fights like them.

…

After killing a few more men, jackie reached White Tower.

“How can this be?!” a man who stood in front of White Tower exclaimed when he saw a man covered in blood rushing toward them. This person was the son-in-law who married into the Taylor family.

jackie was coated in blood, and they could not assess if it was his own and if he was injured.

jackie’s speed only grew when he saw Kylie and the others tied to stone pillars. He stepped forward, and only his shadow was left behind.

“No, stop him!” David yelled out in fright. This young man had such extreme explosive force. Was it possible that he suffered no injuries at all?

Chapter 828 David Wilson and the others were stunned when they saw the blood-coated jackie, his clothes dyed a crimson color.

They felt that jackie must have been exhausted, with the thought that his body would be filled with scars and the man to be at the brink of death.

They never thought jackie could move so quickly. His speed was faster than the masters at their side.

Much to their chagrin, jackie was already next to Orchid and the others. He severed the ropes that bound Orchid and the others up when they finally reacted.

“Wuu… Daddy!” Kylie was terrified from the start, but she dared not cry. She only started crying when she saw her father— jackie—rushing toward them all covered in blood. It was unknown if she was afraid or worried for jackie.

“Kylie, don’t be afraid!” jackie flicked his sword and slew those who dared run up to them. “Orchid, take Kylie and keep her safe!”

With that, jackie ran toward Hector.

“Kill him! Kill all of them! This guy has to be dying at this point, all out of energy to spend! Remember that you’re all masters!” Hector yelled loudly when he saw jackie rushing over to him.

“Attack!” The fighters roared and rushed toward jackie and his company.

“Today is the day you kiss your life goodbye!” With a laugh, jackie tightened his grip on the sword and rushed forward once again.

This time, jackie’s speed increased. He slew the masters who rushed in front of the others with just a few slashes, and he ended Hector’s life with one slash.

The remaining three out of the Four Great Warriors attacked jackie simultaneously, but they only managed to hold up for several seconds before they fell to the floor and breathed their last.

“Im… Impossible!” Kingston Hall’s master shrieked in disbelief, his face pale due to the fear.

The people around them were so frightened and dared not move. jackie’s combat abilities stunned them speechless.

“Who…who are you? How’s this possible? We have so many people with us, so many masters! How are they not your match?” Lee Neuman’s legs turned to jelly when he gazed at the sprawled bodies on the floor. The people they had summoned were elites, yet jackie managed to kill half of them while none of their masters managed to even graze jackie’s skin.

“B—Boss, please let us go! We didn’t have any other choice!” One of the masters was so frightened that he knelt on the floor and begged jackie for mercy.

Covered in blood, jackie’s eyes seemingly had fire in them. He looked daunting as he stood with his sharp sword.

“I can let you guys go, but there’s one condition: Kill all your clan masters and go back to dismiss your clans. As for the properties, divide among yourself and get out of Eastfield. Can you all do that?” ordered jackie, his instructions laced with coldness and apathy. As he had killed numerous people on his way up the mountain, the anger in his heart was soothed though only by a little.

He decided to let go of the remaining men. Otherwise, there would have been too much bloodshed and deaths.

“Thank you for not killing us, Big Brother!” Although the remaining people were skilled fighters, jackie’s very existence scared them witless. They had never once seen such a ruthless person.

“You… You *ssholes! Traitors! Would you have what you have today if I hadn’t provided for you all?!” Tobias’ voice trembled in anger.

“We’re sorry, Master!” One of the men stood behind Tobias and stabbed him from behind, and others followed suit as they surrounded him and killed him.

Chapter 829 “Ahh!” Lee yelled in fright and tried to escape when he saw how grave the situation was for him.

Sadly, several people from Eagle Clan surrounded him, and he was killed right after.

Several strong masters and bosses were killed on the spot.

“Remember to take care of the bodies. After all, they were once your brothers,” commented jackie before he, along with Orchid and the rest, descended the mountain.

The remaining people automatically stood aside to provide a path for jackie when they saw him walking over. They looked on as he left.

Many of them wiped the cold sweat on their foreheads after jackie and his company left.

It was only after they reached the foot of the mountain that jackie turned and looked at Kylie, who stopped crying, with gentle eyes. “Don’t be scared, Kylie. These clans are gone forever! Did they frighten you?”

“Mm… Daddy is the best…! Kylie will stop crying…” Kylie pursed her lips and had a wronged expression on her face.

Kylie gazed at her father, worry evident in her eyes as she asked, “Daddy, are you hurt?”

“Don’t worry, my dear. Daddy is fine. The blood on me is from the fools!” jackie took some clothes out from his car after he spoke. “Wait for me here as I do some preparation. I’ll go wash myself and these clothes at the river over there. It’d be too scary for others to see me in this state!”

“Yes, Master!” Orchid and the other bodyguard nodded, and they brought Kylie into jackie’s car.

jackie went to the river not far away to take a bath and change. As the river was not too far from where they were, he got to the river after he walked past some trees.

As the pretty bodyguard glanced toward the woods, she murmured lowly, “Sister Orchid, don’t you want to go and have a look?”

Orchid rolled her eyes and used her pointer finger to poke the other bodyguard’s forehead. “What are you thinking? You’re still young, so stop thinking nonsense. Let me tell you this: Our Master’s fighting capabilities displayed today are just mere warmup for him. His true abilities are more than just that, and it’s too scary to even think about it!” Orchid paused before she added, “If you go there now, I’m sure you’ll be discovered in mere seconds!”

The pretty bodyguard clasped her hand over her mouth and giggled into it when she heard what Orchid said. “I thought that Sister Orchid wouldn’t have thoughts about it, but it turns out that you’re worried about the shame if Master discovers you! It seems that although you’re married, you still think about our master!”

Orchid stared at her. “Nonsense! Isn’t this very normal? Any woman would want to take a look. After all, this isn’t some random guy, it’s the Supreme Warrior!”

jackie eventually returned after he bathed and changed; he looked handsome and fresh.

“Alright, let’s go! It’s time to go home!” jackie smiled, and they then drove back home.

…

Selena waited anxiously in the yard at their home. The sun had set, but Kylie and the two bodyguards in- charge of fetching her had not returned. Understandably, Selena was worried that something had happened to them.

Apart from that, jackie was also nowhere to be seen. She phoned him, but he did not even pick up.

Her nerves only settled down when she saw the familiar car; jackie had returned. “Where did you guys go? Why are you only back at this hour?”

“It’s nothing. Somebody kidnapped Kylie, but I’ve eliminated them!” jackie smiled indifferently and said to Selena, “Don’t tell Father and Mother about this so that they wouldn’t worry about it. The bad guys are dead!”

“Okay.” Selena nodded, though the frown did not leave her face. Her thoughts that plagued her only fueled her anxiety. Orchid and the other bodyguard were extremely good fighters, but the other party still managed to get a hold of Kylie. This meant that the opponents’ fighting ability was also quite strong.

Chapter 830 Selena thought nothing odd of the kidnapping; so long as Kylie and everybody else returned safely. She did not say anything much so that her parents would not worry.

After all, Selena knew that Fiona would not only be worried but would also bark at jackie to no end. Fiona might blame it on jackie; she would have said that he made too many enemies and caused something like that to happen.

jackie took a small bottle of medication and gave it to Orchid and the other bodyguard. He then told both bodyguards to take a rest before he picked up Kylie and walked back to the villa.

That night, an uproar filled the entire Eastfield.

News that the Wilson family, Green Sky Hall, Kingston Hall, and Eagle Clan dismantled overnight spread like wildfire.

Rumor had it that they crossed a very important person, and the masters of these clans were killed as a result.

The rumor continued that the remaining people sold out and left Eastfield that night as if they were afraid they would also be killed.

The other clans were extremely frightened when they heard it. After all, Green Sky Hall and Eagle Clan were no small clans that people would purposely seek trouble with. Kingston Hall, on the other hand, was one of the biggest amongst all clans, and their Four Great Warriors were extremely strong.

Nobody expected that a clan like that would disappear overnight.

The second day, at the Drake family mansion, James and Tanya were just as shocked when they heard the news.

“Do you know who did it?” James asked as he looked at Spectre, who was beside them.

Spectre shook his head. “Not many people from these clans were left, but all of them were so frightened that they left Eastfield last night.” Spectre paused for a moment before he went on, “However, I discovered many bodies in a valley not far away from Blaze Mountain, and the bodies of Lee Neuman and the rest were also there. I inspected their wounds and discovered from the attacks that it was done by the same person. It’s daunting that one person can kill so many strong masters!”

James nodded after he heard this. “I suspect that jackie was the one who did it!”

Spectre also nodded. “Master, I also suspect that it was jackie as these clans had crossed jackie recently. Apart from that, I heard that jackie’s daughter, Kylie was abducted at the school entrance right after school period. Two of their bodyguards were no match for the abductors, so they were taken away as well.”

“This guy is too fearsome. I wonder if he’s hurt after killing so many people to save his daughter!” James was overwhelmed. “He’s astoundingly unkillable for coming back alive after killing so many people alone. I think that even if he’s not a God of War, his fighting ability is almost the same as one!”

Spectre was also in awe. “To be honest, this is the first time I’ve seen such a strong person. Lucky for us, we’ve never fought with or pissed jackie off before. We would’ve been done for if we did!”

James nodded in agreement. “I’ll tell Timothy about this later. I’m afraid that this guy would cause more trouble if we don’t.”

“That’s right. It’s quite a big blow for our eldest young master. He’s been at home all this while, and he doesn’t even talk!”

Chapter 831 Spectre nodded as he spoke.

After a while, James went to visit Timothy.

Timothy glanced at James before he shifted his gaze and ignored James.

“I’m here today to tell you something,” began James as he kept his gaze on Timothy. “It’s best if you cease all thoughts of getting back at jackie. Kingston Clan, Green Sky Hall, the Wilson family, and Eagle Clan were all overthrown in just one night. All their masters and leaders are dead. Those that remain aren’t skillful enough, so they ran away from Eastfield last night!”

“What?!” Timothy was shocked. “You’re saying that both large clans, Kingston Hall and Eagle Clan, together with the Wilson family and Green Sky Hall, have been destroyed?!”

James nodded. “We investigated the matter and discovered that jackie was behind their ultimate downfall. These four powers worked together to kidnap jackie’s daughter. jackie went to Blaze Mountain alone, and the path he walked was littered with corpses. This caused all four powers to disappear from Eastfield!”

“He went alone? Impossible… That’s impossible! How can he be so powerful? He’s no God of War!” Timothy shook his head vehemently. All he thought of for the past two days was how he could get back at jackie and end him, once and for all.

If what his father said was true, did that not mean that he would never get his revenge?

“Even if he’s no God of War, his fighting ability can rival theirs. Such a person is really too scary!” James smiled bitterly and advised, “Timothy, I know that you hate him very much, but you can’t do anything about it. I’ve urged you many times to befriend jackie and not offend him, yet my words fell on deaf ears. Shouldn’t you reflect the reason why you’re in this situation now?”

As he noted Timothy remained silent, James continued, “Do you think that I’d purposely give up getting justice for you? I’m not afraid, but I had to weigh everything in life. If we really went on a quest for vengeance, the entire Drake family would be involved. By then, we won’t be able to avenge you. That’s not getting revenge; that’s going on a suicide mission! Apart from that, why did you try to take advantage of Selena? You would’ve been dead had you been someone else. jackie has been benevolent enough to keep you alive!”

“I get it, Father!” Timothy eventually conceded and nodded. “ jackie is really too strong. Who knew that he’d hide his true powers so well? Now, he’s destroyed three clans at one go, and two of those clans are really big ones. The hidden powers in Eastfield would act much more cautiously in the future!”

James nodded. “That’s right. We dared not offend Kingston Hall and Eagle Clan before because they had the upper hand, a higher edge than us, but things have now changed. With both clans gone, the other clans can’t even compare to first-class aristocratic families. We’ve no need to fear anything else in the future. We’ll be fine as long as we don’t offend powerful people like jackie or the Gods of War.”

“It’s quite late at night… Rest early.” James sighed inwardly when he saw Timothy withering in front of him and walked downstairs.

He knew his son could not resign to this ending, but what else could they have done? jackie’s power was so much more than they initially thought.

Chapter 832 “It’s horrifying… It’s too horrifying. All four powers have been destroyed overnight!” The George family’s master was just as shocked.

He looked at Sharon—who sat before him—and said, “Sharon, do you know the results of our investigation? The destruction of these four powers was done by one person! There’s a huge possibility that he did it on his own!”

“How’s that possible? One person? Are you telling me that one person did all of that?” Sharon looked at her father with widened eyes as she shared her father’s astonishment.

The George family’s master nodded. “Yes, and this person is none other than jackie!”

“How’s that possible? That’s impossible!” Sharon could not believe her ears. “While jackie is rather strong, he can’t be that powerful. The masters of Kingston Hall have the power comparable to Kings of War, what more the masters of the other powers. I think that apart from the Gods of War or eight-star King of Wars like Skyler Celestino, nobody can manage this. Even Skyler Celestino would get hurt if he’s surrounded by so many people and killed so many…

“He’s hurt!” Sharon suddenly stood up. “Father, are you sure that the investigation showed a huge possibility that it’s jackie?”

“Yes. Somebody kidnapped his daughter that afternoon, and jackie left the city right after,” answered the George family’s master.

“That’s bad! Even if jackie is alive, he must be injured! I need to go visit him!” Sharon was extremely anxious and ran out of the villa.

“This…” The George family’s master chuckled bitterly as he saw Sharon running out. “Did this girl forget that jackie is a miracle-working doctor? He cured you, so it’s only right that he’d be alright, don’t you think?”

He sighed. “Sadly, this is unrequited love. We’d be very fortunate if my daughter can marry someone like jackie!”

…

jackie and the others were eating when an old man walked in. “Seems like I’ve come at the right time. I’m blessed with some great food!”

“King of War Celestino!” Andrew and Fiona stood up in excitement when they saw that the eight-star King of War Skyler Celestino came to their residence.

“Oh my, an honorable guest is here! Quickly, prepare utensils for the King of War Celestino!” Andrew was beyond thrilled. He was an eight-star King of War—a person who could get everything he wanted—and he came as their guest.

“I happened to pass by, so I thought I could stop by for a drink!” Skyler laughed and sat beside jackie. “How is everything? Are you still satisfied with the bodyguards I introduced you?”

Skyler knew jackie was the one who destroyed all four powers. He also believed that jackie would suffer no injuries, even if he was alone when he fought such forces.

“Satisfied. I’m very satisfied with them, especially with Elaine, who’s about to become Ben’s wife,” beamed jackie, followed with a chuckle.

Chapter 833 The corners of Skyler’s mouth twitched when jackie revealed the news. After all, Elaine was his disciple.

He slapped his thigh and irritatedly commented, “What the hell? Why didn’t Elaine tell me this? That’s disrespectful; I’m her master!”

“What? Elaine is your disciple?” Fiona was beyond thrilled to have heard such a pleasant fact. When Ben would marry Elaine, would they be able to raise their family status with the master-disciple relationship between Elaine and Skyler? If anything happened, Skyler could not just ignore it, no?

Unfortunately, Elaine and Ben were not present at the table and were at their internet cafe instead. It would be good if they were here. Ben could share a drink or two with Skyler and improve their relationship.

“That’s right! That girl should’ve mentioned it to me!” Skyler said happily. “Had you guys not told me about it, I probably would only find out on the day of their marriage!”

“Come, drink! Let’s have a drink!” jackie laughed, picked up the red wine bottle in front of him, and poured wine for Skyler.

“Oh my, how can you pour wine for me?” Skyler was startled since it was the Supreme Warrior in front of him. He mindlessly blurted, “I should be pouring wine for you!”

Right as he spoke that, he realized he made a fatal mistake. jackie concealed his true identity and nobody at the table—including Selena—knew that he was the Supreme Warrior.

Skyler gave an embarrassed smile as he was met with odd looks sent his way, and he sheepishly explained, “I mean, I can do this myself. Surely I can do this myself as I like to pour my own wine! You guys are being too generous. People who drink together are family, and there’s no status difference between us! You guys shouldn’t trouble yourselves, too!”

Fiona and the others finally realized what happened. What Skyler said was too shocking for them. Why did they have the feeling that jackie was much stronger than him, to the point that an eight-star King of War had to pour wine for jackie? What this old man said was too…

jackie was just as speechless about what happened. It was fine for Skyler to join them and have drinks, but why did he have to say something like that?

jackie smiled embarrassingly and offered, “That won’t work. Even if we don’t consider your status as the King of War, I should consider you as my elder with your age. Shouldn’t I be the one to fill your wine glass?”

Skyler immediately responded with a smile. “Oh, but of course! You’re very humble, my boy! Come, let’s drink together!”

“Of course! Come, let’s drink!” Fiona and the others were elated. Joan, who seldom drank, also joined in the toast. After all, it was bad to not honor the eight-star King of War.

The last thing everyone expected was for Sharon to barge in at that very moment. “Is everything alright? jackie, are you okay?” Those who guarded the door knew that she was jackie’s friend, so they let her and her bodyguards enter without informing the others.

Sharon instantly hurried toward jackie and ran her hands all over his body. “How are you feeling?” fretted Sharon. “Are you hurt?”

jackie was downright flustered; so many eyes were on him!

“Well, nothing happened,” came jackie’s immediate answer. “Miss Sharon, I don’t know what you’re talking about. Don’t I look fine?”

Sharon instantaneously relaxed after jackie’s reply. “Really? Thank goodness you’re alright. I was so scared when I heard my father say that you overturned the Kingston Hall, Green Sky Hall and the other powerful clans. I thought that you’d be hurt as you killed so many people on your own!” It was only then when she looked at Selena, who was by the side, and realized that she did too much. She smiled embarrassingly and blushed.

Chapter 834 “What?!” shrieked Fiona upon hearing what Sharon had said. “How’s that possible? Miss Sharon, have you gotten some things mixed up here? The four powerful clans that had hordes of men, together with the Wilson family, were overturned by jackie?”

jackie stood, petrified and flabbergasted. If he let Sharon continue to run her mouth, his identity would be exposed for sure.

Sharon frowned and said, “There… There’s no actual evidence, so I think so…? My father told me about it!”

jackie laughed and said calmly, “I thank you for your concern, Miss Sharon, but you must’ve made a mistake here. How can I accomplish such a feat? The only person here who can do that would only be Skyler Celestino, an eight-star King of War!”

He immediately changed the subject as he spoke, “Quick, bring some utensils for Miss Sharon. Since you’re here, come eat and drink with us!”

Sharon smiled. “Oh my, King of War Celestino is also here. If that’s the case, I’d accept this with great honor!”

“That’s for sure, Miss Sharon. Don’t hesitate the next time you feel like coming over. Just treat this place like it’s yours, alright?” Fiona felt utterly pleased at that moment, though she wondered what had happened as important people like King of War Skyler Celestino and Sharon George visited them in their residence.

“Really? Then I’ll definitely come and hang out when I’m free!” Sharon laughed and secretly glanced at jackie, her face red due to shyness.

Fiona had high hopes that jackie would marry Sharon, since their family would amass quite the wealth from their marriage.

Unfortunately, jackie—that blockhead—refused to obey her, and Fiona was at a loss for words at the fact. She could not tie jackie up and force him to get married, right?

Fiona could only hope that jackie and Sharon would get closer after meeting each other more and more.

“That’s weird. If it’s not jackie, who would it be? This person is too strong!” Nobody anticipated that Sharon would whisper to herself after she sat down.

“Who cares about who that person is? It’s definitely not jackie!” Fiona remarked at that moment. “ jackie is quite strong, and he won’t break a sweat if he’s to fight ten to twenty people at once, but it’s impossible for him to kill a few hundred or thousands of people. How can he be that strong? If he’s so strong, he’d be a seven or eight-star King of War, don’t you think? Wouldn’t that mean that we don’t need to worry about anything else in our lives?”

jackie purposely chimed in, “That’s right! How I wish that’s me, though. How good would it be if I’m that strong! Pitifully, I can only worship that kind of person!”

“Come now, let’s not trouble ourselves about this person. In my opinion, this person must be a heroic, stalwart character, and he might also be a master from a different city. After all, Kingston Hall, Green Sky

Hall, and Eagle Clan are hidden powers, thus it’s only plausible that they must’ve offended many people and had many enemies.

“This time, they must’ve offended someone they couldn’t afford to, thus resulting in their ultimate downfall,” commented Skyler as he helped jackie smooth things over. “There are so many small and big powers in this world. It’s normal for powers to grow and for some to disappear. Normal occurrences, nothing new.”

“Yes, that’s right. Come, let’s all enjoy our drinks. We’re lucky that King of War Celestino granted us a visit and is drinking with us here at our house!” jackie raised his wine glass, and everybody started drinking again.

It was only after a few glasses did Skyler asked, “By the way, how’s the preparation for Miss Selena’s birthday party? There are only six days left. I’ll be sure to attend to have a drink or two!”

“Everything is prepared. We welcome King of War Celestino if you can attend the party!” jackie smiled.

Chapter 835 “Oh, my! That’s great!” gushed Fiona with a smile upon hearing Skyler’s comment. “King of War Celestino, I’ll be frank with you: Cecilia Taylor of the Taylor family is also getting married to Kelly Gold of the Gold family on that day. They’ve already sent out the invitations, and I’m afraid that everybody will choose to attend their wedding instead of coming to our party!”

“And how is that possible? Even if everybody else attends Kelly and Cecilia’s wedding, I won’t give them any face. I’ll be sure to attend the birthday party jackie is hosting for Selena. After all, I like this young guy!” Skyler chuckled. What he wanted to say was that all the majors, Kings of War, and maybe even Gods of War would attend the birthday party jackie prepared for Selena.

“Me too! I’ll definitely attend Sister Selena’s birthday party!” Sharon declared her decision with a grin.

“Thank you very much, you two. I’m so worried that nobody would come to the party, and that’d be so embarrassing!” Andrew was grateful. “It’s good that both of you will be coming, even if the others won’t. After all, Miss Sharon and King of War Celestino are important people!”

“That’s too generous of you to say. Too generous!” Skyler immediately said seriously. “Brother, you should drink a glass of wine as your punishment!”

“Yes, I should be punished!” Andrew immediately poured a glass of wine for himself and happily drank it down.

Meanwhile…

…

The quartet—Neil Hugo, Ivan Taylor, Ken Clark, and Xena jackieson—were in a bar as they drank.

Ken mulled over his thoughts for a moment before he began, “By the way, did you guys know about the huge news that Kingston Hall and four other powerful clans had been overthrown?!”

“Yes, it’s a really big issue. My father had just told me to keep a low-profile and not offend anybody, but I think he’s just being too careful for his own good!” Neil smiled bitterly, took the wine glass in front of him, and finished all the wine.

Ken, on the other hand, had a frown on his face. “I wonder who that person is; he’s really too strong. On another note, it’s six days to Selena’s birthday party. I wonder how jackie is doing now. The poison should be doing its job!”

“Yes, I’ve been thinking about it too. It’s unfortunate that Xena isn’t with Ben right now as can’t get any news about jackie’s situation. This guy’s got a healthy physique and is rather skilled in fighting. I wonder how he is right now after consuming the poison,” Neil responded.

Ivan thought about it, swirled the wine in the glass, and smiled in a contemplating way. “I think that his body is so weak right now that he’d fall from a light touch from others. Don’t you think so?”

Ken started laughing after he heard this. “I don’t think that far-fetched, but a normal person would’ve fallen at this point. jackie is quite strong and was a soldier for five years, but I think that his body is almost the same as a normal person’s body right now. Any bodyguard would be able to hurt him!”

“He must’ve discovered that something’s wrong by now. I wonder if both he and Selena are worried about what to do next!” Ivan smirked. “No matter. In order to be safe, I think that it’s best for us to find a chance and check the situation at their place. I want to see his progress after being poisoned!”

“That’s right. After all, his house is just opposite ours. I’ll go with you tomorrow. Let’s hold hands and go make Ben angry!” said Xena with an impish smirk.

“Honey, you’re really naughty, but I like it!” Ivan chuckled.

Chapter 836 Early the next morning, while Selena, jackie, and the others were taking a stroll in the yard, Ivan and Xena walked over while holding hands.

“Ivan, why are you here?” Selena’s face immediately darkened when she saw Ivan and Xena. She asked unwelcomingly.

Not only did Ivan snatched Ben’s girlfriend. Ivan still got together with Xena when he knew that Xena was Ben’s girlfriend. Although she had hated this woman since earlier on and wanted Ben to break up with her. They were obviously humiliating Ben.

“Hey, Can’t I come over? We are a family, can’t I come over to take a look?” Ivan smiled and said. “I’m here to ask about the preparation for Selena’s birthday party. I heard that Kelly and Cecilia booked the top floor of a six-star hotel!”

When Ivan was speaking, he was staring at jackie. He wanted to observe if jackie appeared weaker.

“you don’t need to be worried about this matter, I trust my husband. When he said that everything is prepared, then everything will be prepared. I also believe that my husband will surprise me!” Selena smiled coldly and showed an estranged expression to Ivan.

“Oh my, honey, I wonder what’s wrong with me. I feel dizzy and my limbs feel weak. Sometimes, I even experience breathlessness and pain in my chest. I feel so weak!” jackie was not dumb and he soon understood why the other party was there. He rubbed his head on purpose and put on a weak look with a frown on his face.

“How’s that possible. jackie, are you alright?” Selena was shocked when she heard this. jackie was still fine last night. Why did he suddenly feel unwell today?

Xena and Ivan glanced at each other when they heard that. They were extremely happy as the poison must have taken effect. Although jackie did not show it in an obvious manner nor did he seem to be extremely weak, it might just be something related to his physical strength.

“It’s nothing, maybe it has something to do with the fact that I haven’t rested well for a few days!” jackie smiled indifferently and said.

“Do you want to go and get a checkup at the hospital?” Selena was still slightly worried and continued asking.

“There’s no need for that, honey!” jackie shrugged his shoulders. “Look, don’t I look a lot better now? Apart from that, I’m a doctor myself. I have examined myself and didn’t discover anything wrong. It might just be a lack of rest!”

Ivan and Xena were extremely happy when they heard this.

“Oh my, isn’t that Ben? You’re back?” At that moment, Xena greeted Ben when she saw Ben walking in with two pretty bodyguards. “How are you doing recently? We haven’t met for some time but why do I

feel that you still look the same as you were previously? Why are you still dressed so plainly?”

Ivan, on the other hand, said with a smile. “I heard that you’ve opened up an internet cafe and is now a business owner? Do you have a girlfriend yet? Let me tell you about my girlfriend. She’s so pretty and so wild at night!”

“Hey, you!” Xena blushed and lightly pushed Ivan on his chest with her delicate fist.

Chapter 837 ”Everything is fine as I’m quite easily satisfied!” Ben smiled and glanced at Elaine, who was standing beside him.

Elaine smiled sweetly back and held onto Ben’s hand. “Xena jackieson, I really don’t know how to thank you. You gave up such a good man and I’ve gotten this precious person now!”

“You…you’ve gotten a girlfriend?” Ivan’s face darkened when he saw them. He was slightly envious as Elaine had a good figure and beautiful eyes. She also looked younger and prettier than Xena and had a fairy-like aura.

“That’s for sure. Do I, Ben Taylor, look like someone who can’t get a girlfriend?” Ben snorted coldly, glanced at Xena, and said. “I believe that I’m much better than someone who’s been toyed by many motor robbers previously. I heard my sister mentioned this before but I refused to believe it. Haha, now I finally understand how cheap someone can be! You can get her as long as you have money!”

“You…” Xena was extremely angry. Ivan knew nothing about her past with the motor robbers. She had no idea that Ben would mention that at this moment.

Ivan’s face immediately darkened. He knew the last time he slept with Xena, she was no longer a virgin and thought that Ben was the one who slept with Xena previously. He had no idea that Xena had crossed paths with many gangsters in the past. How could he remain calm when he knew that this woman had slept with so many men?

Apart from that, Ben’s current girlfriend was so much prettier compared to Xena.

“Is he telling the truth?” Ivan looked at Xena and asked with a dark expression on his face.

“Ivan, don’t believe in the nonsense he just said. I did hang out with the motor robbers previously but we only enjoyed a couple of drinks together. I’m not a casual woman!” Xena was so frightened that she explained hastily to Ivan.

The current Taylor family was a second-class aristocratic family and Ivan Taylor was the young master of a second-class aristocratic family. If they get married soon after, she would be a young mistress. Was this not the life she wanted since long ago?

Ivan wanted to scold Xena loudly. However, he thought about it and realized that he could not be in a conflict with Xena right now.

After all, the situation would turn against him if he angered Xena and she told on him about poisoning jackie. Even Old Master Taylor would change his opinion about him if the old master knew of such a despicable act.

Ivan understood clearly that Old Master Taylor was someone who paid attention to integrity and uprightness. He would not condone someone who used such despicable ways.

“Ben, I know that you’re trying to drive a wedge between us. In your dreams, I’m not falling for this trick of yours!” Ivan laughed. He pulled Xena’s hand and said, “Come, let’s go. I do not want to waste time speaking to these people!”

After taking several steps, Ivan thought about it, turned around, and said to jackie, “By the way, jackie, although Selena’s birthday is on the same day as Cecilia’s wedding, you don’t need to worry about anything. I will definitely make time to attend. After all, Selena is also my cousin and all of us are from the Taylor family, I will definitely give face to you guys!”

jackie smiled coldly after he heard this and said, “It doesn’t matter if you give me face or not. After all, we don’t really welcome you. You might be disappointed when you come over!”

jackie knew clearly that Ivan wanted to come to the birthday party to see how he dies. However, Ivan would be very disappointed by then.

“Ivan, don’t believe a word the crazy Ben said. He hates me because he can’t get me!” After they exited the villa, Xena smiled and explained to Ivan.

Chapter 838 ”Baby, don’t you worry about it. I don’t believe what Ben had said as it’s obvious that he’s purposely trying to drive a wedge in between us. I definitely see his motives!” Ivan hugged Xena and smiled.

However, he was secretly unhappy. Xena was a woman who loved money and he could clearly feel that this woman was a total gold digger so what Ben said was clearly true.

When he thought of this, he strengthened the decision to not marry Xena.

However, he could not have a fall out with Xena right now and tell her that he’s not marrying her. If not, this girl might tell others about how he asked her to poison jackie. Would it not be terrible if jackie managed to find an antidote within these last few days?

He could not take the risk although the possibility was low.

Hence, he had to wait several days until after jackie’s death. By then, he could think of ways to break up with her, give her some money, and get her to leave.

“Ivan is really shameless. I think he’s here to make fun of jackie. How dare he come over on purpose to ask about the preparation for Selena’s birthday!” Ben smiled, held Elaine’s hand, and entered the villa.

“ jackie, are you alright? Do you really feel uncomfortable?” After Ivan and Xena left, Selena still looked at jackie worryingly.

jackie felt warm in his heart. “Silly, I feel very good now. Don’t you realize what Ivan and Xena are here to check on? They are here to look at how I will be when the poison kicks in. They are here to test the waters and since they want to see me dying from the poison so badly, I gave him a taste of it!”

“Oh, I see… you’re really bad. How can you be so good at acting that I was also almost tricked by you!” Selena relaxed. She glanced at jackie coquettishly and that look made jackie enchanted.

“what to do? My wife is a dumb girl with no brains!” jackie laughed and said.

Selena blushed, looked around, and said after she discovered that nobody was there. “It’s all because of you, recently you kept… Humph! How dare you describe me like that. You’re not allowed to touch me tonight!”

“Honey, I’m sorry!”

“Go away!”

…

Time flew and news about the four powerful clans were destroyed soon passed by. Everyone stopped discussing it and everything returned to its usual ways.

Finally, the day of Selena’s birthday party and Cecilia’s wedding dinner came.

“Dear, where’s the hotel you booked?” Selena, who had already dressed up, came downstairs and asked jackie.

Although she felt that what jackie said about holding a city-stirring party was slightly overboard but she still looked forward to it.

jackie glanced at the time and smiled slightly. “Let’s go. All of us should leave now! I’ve booked a big hotel and it’s a seven-star hotel!”

“Seven-star?! jackie, are you joking? How much would that cost? You must be joking, right?” Ben inhaled a cold breath when he heard this as he was extremely shocked.

“I believe in our master!” Elaine smiled. jackie was the Supreme Warrior and such an event would be nothing to him!

“You must be boasting again! Why don’t you tell us that you’re holding the party on the top floor of the seven-star hotel?” Fiona rolled her eyes at jackie and said angrily. She felt that jackie was unreliable.

“Hey, mother-in-law, you’re really a prophet! That’s exactly it!” jackie smiled. “Let’s go, the fleet of cars are waiting for us at the entrance!”

Chapter 839 “A fleet?”

The public was shocked once again.

Everyone walked out. Only then did they notice a fleet of 100 Rolls-Royces, parked at the entrance.

“Are you kidding me? Even if you rent 100 cars, it would cost a hefty sum of money. And they’re all new!”

Ben gulped.

“ jackie, don’t tell me this is the fleet that we’re going to take? And why are there fresh flowers on the cars? Why are they all decorated like wedding cars? And there are words reading ‘Just Got Married’ on it!”

Fiona looked completely taken aback. Her eyes nearly popped out of her sockets. It could not have been cheap, even if they were just rented cars.

“Oh, I know. It’s so obvious that these are wedding cars. They must be the ones that Kelly prepared for Cecelia!”

Andrew’s face darkened. “That Kelly and Cecelia,” he huffed. “Why did they park their wedding cars at our gates? Are they trying to disgust us on purpose?”

Fiona finally snapped into her senses. That was right. How could a good-for-nothing like jackie have the money to hire such a fleet!

Only the Gold family could probably come up with such a huge amount of money. After all, this was for the wedding ceremony of their young master.

Yet at this moment, another fleet of cars was driving by not too far away. These were wedding cars as well—Porsches, Bentleys, Audis, and BMWs. All of them were luxury cars.

However, this car fleet was insignificant compared to the 100 Rolls-Royces.

Plenty of passersby whipped out their phones to take photos when they saw the sight. Both of the fleets filled them with admiration.

Selena had been surprised as well when she saw so many Rolls-Royces parked at the gate. Then her heart leaped with delight.

The Taylor family had just exited from the place. Each of them was overjoyed, knowing that the fleet had come.

However, disappointment tinged her heart when she heard her father’s words. He was right, there were so many Rolls-Royces. No way that jackie had prepared all that.

Yet she never expected the fleet of cars to actually stop at the entrance of the Taylor family’s villa.

This stunned her once again.

jackie smiled and took her hand in his. “Selena, I’ve prepared this fleet of cars for you. Don’t worry about the money. You’ll be the most beautiful bride today!”

“Bride? Isn’t this a birthday party?”

Selena was extremely shocked. Her lips parted in disbelief.

“Idiot. I owe you a proper wedding ceremony too. This has been stirring within me all this while, so today is actually the belated day of our wedding!”

jackie smiled, affection filled up his eyes.

“ jackie, are–are you saying that you really prepared this entire fleet of cars for us? But what about the wedding dress? Shouldn’t I be wearing a wedding dress for a wedding? And you should have prepared a ring!”

Fiona was extremely excited now, and could not be bothered to ask where jackie had gotten the money. jackie was going to make both her and her husband’s reputation skyrocket to the heavens. She even felt a shortness of breath.

“Mom, jackie has already given me the ring. I’m wearing it right now.”

Selena rolled her eyes at her mother. “Aren’t you being too greedy?”

“What about a wedding dress? There should at least be a dress for a wedding.”

Fiona immediately pressed on.

“Don’t worry, Mother. A professional makeup team is awaiting Selena at the hotel!”

jackie grinned. “We can’t miss that out since it’s a wedding. And I’ve even prepared a necklace for her!”

He took off the necklace that Selena was currently wearing around her neck. “You’ll be wearing that necklace instead!” he said, smiling.

Chapter 840 “What’s going on over there?”

Kelly, the head of the Gold family, and the others were also in their own fleet of cars. Each of them was elated.

The fleet that they had prepared today was pretty good.

However, they were instantly shellshocked after they got down from the cars, noticing the numerous cars parked in front of the entrance leading to the villa belonging to jackie and the others.

They had only prepared twenty cars for their fleet, but they had nearly a hundred—and all of them were Rolls-Royce.

“No way. Did jackie prepare all of that for Selena?”

The Taylor family had arrived as well. All of them were stupefied.

“ jackie seems to be in good spirits!”

Ivan squinted at jackie from a distance. Confusion overtook him. Was he seeing things? According to logic, he should not even be able to get up right now. Was it because his body was so strong that he was still able to hold on until now?

“No way. They’re all wedding cars!”

Cecilia, who was in a wedding gown, quirked her lips at the corners. She did not believe that jackie had prepared those wedding cars for Selena.

“That’s right. No way that’s happening!”

“Selena’s not even in a wedding dress,” Xena interjected, smirking. “How could that be the case?”

However, as soon as she said that, she herself did not quite believe her own words. After all, the only villa on the other side of the street belonged to jackie and the others. There were no other luxury villas around them.

The next second, shock rippled throughout everyone. The chauffeur who stood before jackie and the others actually opened the car door for them.

jackie waved toward the people on the other side before getting in the car.

“This…”

Even Master Gold’s complexion had gone pale. His son was having a wedding now. Was jackie also having a wedding ceremony with Selena? More importantly, their fleet of cars had already lost out to his. It was a huge blow to his reputation.

“Let’s go. Get into the car!”

In the end, Master Gold could only flash an awkward smile and tell everyone to hop into the cars.

“Let’s follow them!”

jackie told the driver.

Soon enough, the Gold family’s car fleet headed the procession, and jackie’s car fleet followed them at a leisurely pace.

“ jackie did promise that he would send ripples throughout the city. Does he think he can do that just by hiring a fleet of cars like that? What a joke. There are plenty of other things to spend on for a wedding!”

Master Gold, who was sitting beside Old Master Taylor, chuckled before speaking, “We’ve booked the top floor of a six-star hotel, Mr. Taylor. We wanted to book one from a seven-star hotel, but we never thought that another tycoon would book the place faster than we did. He booked the entire hotel!”

Here, Master Gold paused for a while before continuing in a careless tone, “So we’ll have to trouble you for a while. We really had no choice. We never expected this!”

“The entire hotel? How flamboyant. He’d have to spend at least ten billion dollars.”

Old Master Taylor took a sharp intake of breath when he heard that. The Taylor family was a second- class aristocratic family now, but they would never spend that much money for a wedding ceremony. It was like burning money, as though it grew from trees.

Even the venue that Kelly had booked could not have been cheap. It was a pretty luxurious place, and it cost them nearly 200 million dollars. Yet that mystery man had booked an entire seven-star hotel.

“Huh. Why is jackie’s fleet of cars trailing after us?”

Chapter 841 Quickly enough, Master Gold seemed to realize that something was amiss. He frowned. He felt dissatisfied. What on earth was jackie following them for?

“Perhaps it’s a coincidence. Maybe they so happen to be going this way!”

Old Man Taylor furrowed his brows. jackie had said that he wanted to throw a birthday party for Selena, but he had been secretive about it. He did not even give them an invitation—in fact, he never even told them about the date and location.

He had even assumed that jackie would have thought that the act was meaningless, considering that the Taylor family and plenty of other aristocratic families would be attending Cecilia’s wedding instead of their birthday party. He had assumed that was the reason why jackie had not told anyone about it.

However, he never expected that jackie would cook up such a display today. The young man must have spent a fortune on the car fleet. Did he truly arrange all that?

“I know!”

At this moment, Master Gold slapped his thigh. “It must be due to that seven-star hotel being booked by a super tycoon family, and jackie and the others probably just hitched a ride from some other person to get to their own hotel, which happens to be around that area, so it’ll be along the way… He’s just doing it for the sake of his vanity.”

“No way. Those are wedding cars. How could anyone agree to that?”

Old Man Taylor flashed a bitter smile. “I think jackie is just bending over backward to maintain his dignity. Ah, young people these days. Never mind them. It’s Cecilia’s wedding today. We’ll definitely take part in it!”

The Gold family’s fleet of cars soon arrived at the entrance of the six-star hotel. When they stopped, they realized that jackie’s fleet of cars drove on and parked near the entrance of the seven-star hotel.

“No–no way!”

The members of the Taylor and the Gold family were all stunned at the sight once they got down from the car. The seven-star hotel had been entirely booked by a mystery tycoon. Was the mystery tycoon jackie himself?

A red carpet had been unfurled before the hotel entrance. jackie walked forward, Selena’s hand in his, and rose petals slowly drifted over their heads.

“It’s beautiful!”

Selena lifted her chin, shocked. The petals were falling from the highest floor, dancing with a lazy breeze. It was as though it was raining roses.

Suddenly, the entire hotel transformed into a screen—and Selena’s smiling face appeared on it, the beautiful expression captured by a passing drone.

“Not bad. Not bad at all!”

Fiona, Ben, and the others were all extremely moved.

Did jackie actually book this entire hotel? Where did he even get the money from?

“Let’s go in. Who cares about them? I don’t think that any of the other aristocratic families or those war officers would actually attend the birthday party and forgo the wedding happening on our side!”

Cecilia was so furious that her face had gone white. She stamped her foot.

“It doesn’t look like a birthday party. Look at that screen—they’re celebrating jackie and Selena’s wedding!”

Ivan pointed at the building.

At this moment, everyone’s phones buzzed.

They all took out their phones. It was actually a mass message congratulating jackie and Selena on their wedding.

“No way. If we’re getting a text like this, doesn’t that mean that the entire country has gotten the same thing?”

Old Man Taylor was completely stupefied; he wondered if he had gone blind. Every one of them received the same message. Was this a mass congratulatory message?

“No–no way. It probably got sent out to the entire Eastfield. They must have designated a specific province!”

Cecilia immediately protested.

Even if that were the case, it would have been impossible if not for some figure with considerable influence.

Chapter 842 The location of the hotel was even included at the end of the message.

“Why is jackie holding a wedding now, when he hadn’t even bothered to tell us before? Didn’t he say it was a birthday party?”

Master Roy frowned. He was just about to leave for Cecilia’s wedding when he received the unexpected message.

“What should we do, Master? If we go to jackie’s wedding, Cecilia’s wedding is still ongoing. And Cecilia and her family had specially invited us! Not only did jackie not give us a notice in advance but he’s also holding this ceremony just to make up for what he hadn’t done. It’s fine if we don’t go!”

A middle-aged man beside Master Roy drew his brows together, pondering. Then he posed the question.

Master Roy was speechless for a while as well. “Geez. Couldn’t he have chosen another date? Why did he have to hold it on the same day as Cecilia’s wedding? I wouldn’t even have thought of going if it were a birthday party since Cecilia’s wedding is more important—and since I should give face to the Taylor family. But I really don’t know what to do now!”

“Why don’t we see if the Goddess of War shows up there first? We’ll attend jackie’s wedding if the Goddess of War is there, and we’ll just send our wedding gifts over to the Gold family!”

The middle-aged man suggested to his master after considering the situation.

“What if the Gods of War don’t turn up at either of their weddings? Then we’ll just go to Cecilia’s wedding and give the gifts to jackie and his family. It’ll be fine so long as we don’t offend anybody. But essentially, we’ll go for whichever wedding that the Goddess of War attends—assuming that she shows up. It’s likely that the King of Wars and the officers will all go to the wedding that she’s attending!”

Master Roy finally made the decision after weighing his options.

“We’ll know what to do, depending on how all this plays out. Aren’t the two weddings in the same area? We can go to Cecilia’s wedding first, and if the Goddess of War goes for jackie’s wedding, it still won’t be too late for us to go over. We’ll just say that we want to go to their wedding as well—that we can’t afford to miss either one of them. How does that sound?”

At this moment, Madam Roy suggested after she thought about it.

“We can go along with that!”

Robert nodded his head. All of them quickly set off in their cars and arrived at the square.

The two hotels were not very far from each other.

They got down from the car and entered the square first. Only then did Robert and the others notice that plenty of wealthy businessmen and third-class aristocratic families were here.

Each of them felt like they were stuck between a rock and a harder place as well. They were wondering if they should go to jackie’s wedding instead. He was getting popular lately, after all. Besides, he had

booked the entire hotel. They did not know if he had borrowed the money, but the sheer magnitude of his work was somewhat frightening.

Many people came over to the Roy family when they arrived.

“Master Roy, which wedding are you going to attend?”

An old man asked Robert, smiling.

It was obvious that they all wanted to know his decision.

“Has the Goddess of War made an appearance yet?”

Robert asked after he thought about it.

“Not yet!”

The old man twisted his lips into a mirthless smile. “We don’t even know if she’ll show up. We can’t just keep standing here, can we?”

Chapter 843 Robert mirrored the old man’s expression. “You’re right. It would have been fine to not show up if jackie was just celebrating a birthday, but that bastard just had to go ahead and organize a wedding instead. He probably wanted to throw a surprise for Selena. That’s why he did all this. He’s making it difficult for us!”

A man from a third-class aristocratic family interjected, “Who cares? He didn’t even bother to tell us. It’ll be fine even if we don’t go. The Gold family had sent out the invites a long time ago. It’ll be terrible if we don’t show up. I think we should just attend Young Master Gold’s wedding instead.”

Robert bobbed his head, smiling. “Yes. Let’s go to the Gold family’s wedding first. It couldn’t have been easy for jackie to book a hotel as big as that. There probably will be others who’ll attend his wedding!”

In a flash, all of them agreed to go over to the six-star hotel.

“Dad, jackie was the one who booked the seven-star hotel. He even included the location in his message. Will many people choose to not show up here? I’m a little worried. We’ve already booked a few hundred tables. If no one comes, we’ll…”

Kelly, who was currently on the top floor of the six-star hotel, was getting anxious now. After all, jackie had booked a seven-star hotel. Never mind that he had already one-upped them, he even managed to send a blast message to everyone’s phones.

“Don’t worry. We sent proper invitations. That idiot did not send invites—in fact, he did not even tell anyone about it. Even if he’s holding his wedding in a seven-star hotel, no one would go if it’s tacky!”

Master Gold gave a wry smile, speaking confidently.

Just as he finished speaking, the elevator doors opened. Plenty of significant figures came into view.

“See? They’re here already. Even the Roy family is here!”

Delight leaped to Master Gold’s expression. He immediately stepped forward to welcome the guests.

At that moment, Selena had just finished her makeup. She went to the grand ballroom at the very top of the hotel. It was a large, grandiose space, and it was exquisitely decorated. It looked like a fairy-tale came alive.

“Not a single person is here, dear. Look at the other side. Looks like plenty of people are there!”

Selena cast her gaze toward the top floor of the other building, frowning. She knew that jackie had spent a lot of money on this. She did not know if he had borrowed it from Skyler or the Goddess of War, but she could not be bothered to ask.

Now, she was more worried that no one would come even after everything had been prepared. That would be extremely embarrassing.

“Don’t worry, dear!”

jackie chuckled, his expression unfazed.

Yet more and more people appeared at the other building as time ticked by. Plenty of commanders and officers had even gone there.

After all, Old Man Taylor, the others, and the Gold family were a lot more reputable than jackie.

Additionally, Cecilia, Kelly, and the others had sneakily taken plenty of photos and sent them to their social media groups. The photos had been quickly distributed, and plenty of influential people soon knew about the hubbub that was going on there—and they knew that Master Roy and the others were there, so to the six-star hotel they went.

Finally, at the square, Skyler—with a slight grin on his face—went straight for the hotel jackie was in, plenty of officers and Kings of War in tow.

They were subsequently displayed on the screen of the seven-star hotel. They then went straight to the top floor, meeting jackie.

“Skyler Celestino, an eight-star King of War, actually went for jackie’s wedding!”

Plenty of influential people looked over to the other side, shock jolting through their veins. Had they chosen the wrong place to be in after all?

Chapter 844 An eight-star King of War, plenty of officers, and another two two-star Kings of War all appeared on the screen of the hotel on the opposite side. The sight made plenty of businessmen waver.

“Who knew that plenty of people would show up there!”

Robert gave an awkward smile. At least, he had come here first to give his gifts and portray his blessings. It should be fine if he went over for a while.

After all, he had already done them a favor.

Still, there were quite a number of people here as well. Plenty of businessmen came over to pay their due respects.

It was obvious that a lot of people thought of coming to the Gold family’s wedding first simply because jackie had not personally informed them of his wedding beforehand. They would consider the circumstances before actually deciding to go for jackie’s wedding in a while.

After some time had passed, Master George, along with Sharon and the others turned up at Cecilia’s wedding as well.

However, they had only paid their respects for a few minutes before Master George spoke to Master Gold, smiling, “Master Gold, why is it that Kelly’s wedding so happens to be on the same day as jackie’s wedding? This truly makes our life difficult. But since I’ve already given my gifts to you, I should go over to the other side as well. I won’t feel at ease if I don’t show up there at all!”

Here, Master George paused before continuing, “Don’t worry though. I’ll bring my butler and the others here for the feast. But you know my daughter is on very good terms with jackie, so she and a few others will just be having their meal there!”

“Sure, sure. Selena is part of the Taylor family as well, after all. We’re practically one family now. Go over and give your gifts. But make sure you come back here for the good food!”

Master Gold spoke, grinning. He believed that they were just going over to nose around for a bit and they would return soon.

Soon enough, Master George and the others went over to the hotel jackie and the others were in.

However Master Gold was quickly rendered speechless as the Goddess of War, Lana Zechs, showed up.

Yet she did not come over to his side; in fact, she did not even bother to give them any gifts or pay any respects. She just went straight for jackie’s hotel.

Some of the aristocratic families had originally thought about dropping off their gifts to jackie before going over to the Gold family’s side for the banquet. At the sight of the Goddess of War turning up at jackie’s though, they quickly ordered one or two of their subordinates to give the presents to the Gold family, while they, themselves remained on jackie’s side of the hotel.

More and more people were turning up on jackie’s side, and the atmosphere grew livelier. Many superstars were here as well, and they performed a few songs on the stage, singing about their well wishes for the happy couple.

In contrast, although the Gold family had hired a few stars as well, they were all B-list celebrities—small fry compared to the ones on jackie’s side. The most embarrassing part was that no one was there, except for themselves, the Taylor family, and a few other businessmen and aristocratic families.

“Dad. This–this…”

Cecilia looked at her father, so furious that she could spew blood. This was supposed to be the day where Selena would embarrass herself whereas she would be standing in the limelight!

She never thought that everything would turn out this way. They had already prepared meals for so many tables. If no one came over for the banquet in a while…

Cecilia’s father’s expression was stormy. He shot a glare at her. “We can’t blame anyone even if no one turns up, right?” he said. “They had originally said that they would throw a birthday party on this date.

And yet you had to have your wedding on the same day. Who’s to blame here!”

Cecilia winced. “I never thought that the Goddess of War would actually go over to their side—as well as Skyler Celestino and a few other bigshots. All those businessmen and aristocratic families are so unreliable. They just go wherever the Goddess of War goes!”

Chapter 845 “Don’t worry, Cecilia. We’ll have a spectacle to witness later!”

Ivan and Xena exchanged a glance before the former told Cecilia.

“What spectacle? Aren’t I the spectacle now?”

Cecilia was on the brink of tears.

“Come over here!”

Ivan grinned and tugged Cecilia over to the side. Then he divulged how jackie had been poisoned.

“Really? So you’re saying that jackie is going to drop dead later, just like that?”

Cecilia immediately felt better when she heard that. Even if she embarrassed herself today, she would be happy once jackie dies. She would forget all her grudges and anger then.

“Of course. I even checked on him a few days before. He already had some symptoms then. He said that he had a headache and that he was feeling fatigued. Basically, he wasn’t feeling well. Look at him laughing on the other side now, chatting with the Goddess of War. But the poison will work its magic anytime soon. His death will come in a matter of one or two minutes!”

Ivan spoke confidently, smiling. He continued after thinking for a while, “But jackie’s symptoms are kind of strange though. Some parts of his body should have been rotting by now, and he shouldn’t even be able to stand up. It’s probably because he has such a strong body!”

“Hmph. He deserves it. Who knows where he got the money to book an entire seven-star hotel? He just embarrassed me to no end. He deserves to die!”

Cecilia looked at the screen on the opposite hotel. “Judging from how he’s laughing along with the Goddess of War, he probably borrowed the money from her. Only someone like that would have that much cash to lend out. And she doesn’t have to invest in any businesses. So money isn’t all that important to someone like her!”

“That’s probably the case. jackie had saved her, after all. They really seem to be on good terms. I really admire how he’s practically sitting on her lap!”

Ivan was overwhelmed with emotion. “But he’s meeting his end today. Their wedding will turn into his funeral!”

“Hmph! Which part of the event sends ripples throughout the entire city? He just booked a single hotel. He simply managed to get a hundred Rolls-Royces for his car fleet. This is nothing compared to what they had promised!”

Cecilia snorted coldly. She spoke in a sour tone, seeing as how only a few people were present at her wedding.

“Eh. Why does that person look so familiar? I think I’ve seen him on TV!”

At this moment, an old man with a few other people in tow went before jackie and the others to give his blessings. The image of this group was quickly captured and projected on the hotel’s screen.

“That–that’s the boss of Daxia Juwel! My God. He’s a disgustingly rich businessman. Probably one of the richest in the entire country. Shouldn’t someone like that be in Gin City? Why’s he in Eastfield?”

Cecilia quickly recognized the man. She released a loud exclamation.

“We meet again, my boy!”

The old man laughed as he walked over, clasping jackie’s hand and shaking it. “I didn’t know what to give, so I only brought over a few rings. They’re not too expensive—probably worth three hundred million dollars in total!”

Chapter 846 “Isn’t, isn’t he the owner of the Daxia Juwel? He is a filthy rich businessman over in Gin City! And now he is here in our humble city!”

Someone in the crowd quickly recognized the elder in front of him, after all, he was a big shot who often appeared on TV.

“Congratulations!”

Manager Lynch was here. She flashed jackie an awkward smile and then switched her attention toward Selena. “What a beautiful bride!” she exclaimed with a hint of envy in her tone.

The moment she saw Selena with her own eyes, she finally realized why jackie did not budge in the slightest at her flirt. Selena was well known for her beauty—Beauty Queen of Eastfield. Besides, her make-up and outfit were done by a team of professional make-up artists and fashionistas, and with a stunning wedding dress on her, she looked even more attractive.

“Thank you all for coming to my wedding. Honestly, I’m a bit flattered!”

A faint yet shy smile hung on jackie’s face as he put a few exquisite and sparkling rings on Selena’s slender fingers.

“Do I have to wear so many rings? Look, I have it here…”

Selena’s cheeks were kissed pink as though the makeup artist had painted a pink cotton candy blush on.

“Don’t worry! We have to show off our wealth, right?”

jackie laughed wholeheartedly but his forehead frowned in the next second. “Hmmm…This one is too big on you!”

After dropping his last word, he tossed the ring to Joan casually and said, “Mom, this is for you!”

“Oh my goodness! Can you be a little more careful? This is so valuable! What if you break it?”

Joan’s heart lurched at jackie’s behavior. jackie bought three rings for three hundred million, which meant one ring was around one hundred million. How could jackie just toss it as though it was a plastic ring from a toy shop!

Fortunately, she caught the ring, otherwise, it would have been a big loss if it was broken.

“Oh my, please be more careful, will you? I’m nearly scared to death!”

Fiona was frightened by jackie’s casual toss as well, that a sheen of cold and shiny sweat appeared on her forehead. Although the ring was given to Joan, they were family, and it would be a pity if the ring were broken because of the toss.

“Ha-ha!”

The owner of Daxia Juwel chuckled out loud.

Businessmen and prominent families from all over Eastfield appeared at jackie’s wedding slowly, and many people were sent over by their heads of halls to attend jackie’s wedding.

On the opposite side, inside the six-star hotel, a young man from the Taylor family approached the Old Master Taylor and suggested, “Old Master Taylor, Selena is your granddaughter too, shouldn’t we at least pay a visit? Today is Cecilia and Selena’s wedding, if we only attend Cecilia’s but not hers, it would not look great, right?”

Old Master Taylor had wanted to go over since a moment ago. He could not help but frown, “Don’t you think it’s humiliating for us to go over in such a situation? I announced before that I might not go to their party, and now if I go there, I’ll be eating my own words! How embarrassing! Besides, there will be no one left at Cecilia’s wedding if we leave!”

The middle-aged man opened his mouth, wanted to chime in, but shut up in the end. He knew Old Master Taylor very well, he would not do something that would humiliate himself. But even when the God of War was at jackie’s wedding and those wealthy businessmen from Gin city. How could Old Master Taylor still refuse to go over because of his own image and reputation? Was he not finding pain for himself?

“Guys, look! There, there is a helicopter!”

Soon, someone in the crowd pointed out a helicopter hovering toward the direction of the seven-star hotel, slowly approaching the sightseeing platform of the hotel.

“Wait, the helicopter is flying lower and lower, will it crash into the building? There is no helipad on the top of the building!

Ken Clark was dumbfounded. He was here with Neil Hugo to give jackie and Selena a gift, pretending to be friendly, but in fact, they were here to witness jackie’s last day on earth.

However, after the long wait, the death did not come as they had expected, instead, the helicopter appeared.

“Here he is!”

Lana showed a big bright smile—she was truly elated.

There was no helipad on this building for this monstrous flying machine, and the distance between it and the sightseeing platform was estimated to be around one hundred meters. At this time, a man hopped

and jumped down from the helicopter.

“What the f*ck? Is this guy committing suicide?”

The crowd looked at the sight before them, some were shocked that they gulped loudly.

“Oh, my freaking goodness. Death on a celebratory occasion, what bad luck!”

Chapter 847 Another person was nearly frightened to death when the man jumped down from the helicopter. The man attempting the jump was aiming to land on the sightseeing platform that was on top of the building.

The platform was not spacious, perhaps it could only fit up to twenty persons. Yet, this man chose to land here, how accurate would his jump be?

The sound was slight and insignificant. The man who jumped down from the helicopter, squatted after landing on the platform and then slowly stood up. A wicked smile appeared on the corner of the man.

The person in charge of filming and recording ran over and took a look at the man. His jaw dropped and his mouth wide opened, surprise filled up his eyes.

“Joseph Smith, the God of War!”

After a few moments of silence circling in the crowd, an old man suddenly yelled in excitement and called out the man’s name.

Joseph showed a faint smile and approached jackie relaxingly. “Hey, jackie! It’s been a long time!”

He paused for seconds as his attention was caught by a presence beside jackie. It was Selena. “Is this the Bride? How stunning is she!” Joseph looked at Selena and praised.

“Nice…nice to meet you, God of War!”

Selena was puzzled and somewhat flattered. Did a God of War actually come to her wedding? It was reasonable for Lana, the Goddess of War to come, after all, jackie had saved her life and his relationship with her had always been good. Besides, Lana stayed in Eastfield as well.

But, Joseph Smith, here, at her wedding? Was he not from the other city? Why was he here?

Moreover, he came in a private helicopter!

After Joseph landed on the platform, the helicopter wheeled and hovered toward the helipad outside the city. That was the only helipad near the city.

“You’re right! It’s been a long time!”

jackie nodded in satisfaction as he studied this disciple of his. Then he gently patted him on the shoulder with his hand.

“Phew! Joseph, I see you’ve grown handsome!”

Lana approached the group and teased Joseph with a smile on her face.

“You’re beautiful too, haha!”

Joseph smiled brightly in return. He pondered for a moment then took out a bank card from his pocket. “Sigh! I was in rush and I have no idea what to get you. So, money is the most practical gift I can offer!”

He stuffed the bank card onto Selena’s hands in the next second. “Mrs. White, congratulations on your big day! This is a humble gift from the bottom of my heart. It’s not much, only one billion. And the password is six zeros, you can reset it later!”

“One…one billion!”

Awkward silence suddenly struck the crowd. One billion was not much? It was way too much! This gift was beyond everything!

Although the God of War was said to have received a retirement bonus of several hundred billion but was this not too much?

This only showed that jackie had a good relationship with Joseph.

“Joseph Smith, the God of War!”

On the other side, inside the six-star hotel across the street, the head of the Gold family, as well as the Old Master Taylor and the rest, were dumbfounded. They thought someone jumped off the helicopter to commit suicide, but in the end, it turned out to be Joseph Smith, the God of War. Though his entrance was somewhat a little peculiar.

“What the hll! What the fck is this!”

Theodore’s mouth was extensively widened as if it could fit a cow. He rubbed his eyes a few times, only then did he realize that the man was really Joseph Smith, the God of War.

“Ahem, Master Gold, hear me out. Look, Selena is also my granddaughter and I haven’t gone over to give her my blessing. Today is her big day too, as her grandfather, I must go over and give my blessing!”

Old Master Taylor no longer cared about his image and reputation. If he were to attend Selena’s wedding, he would gain more reputation than what he would lose. It would be his lifetime honor to be able to have a conversation with the God of War, why was he still at Cecelia’s wedding?

“Go on, go ahead!”

Although Master Gold was upset and he could feel the anger stirring within him that his face went unsightly, he had to tamp down his irritation and gestured to the Old Master Taylor to take his leave.

Chapter 848 When Old Master Taylor arrived at the entrance of the seven-star hotel, to his surprise, he felt excitement bouncing within him. Two Gods of War came over to jackie’s wedding, how dignified jackie was!

Nevertheless, he soon furrowed and muttered in confusion, “Wait, this is strange. How did the Gods of War find out that jackie’s wedding was today? It was a short notice, after all. Even if the text messages have gone out to everyone, it’s impossible for them to come straight after receiving the text, right? I’m afraid that jackie is not some assistant commander, otherwise, how could the Gods of War come for him?”

Ivan, on the other hand, refused to believe that jackie was some kind of King of War or some other big shot. He laughed sarcastically and said, “Hmph! Grandpa Taylor, surely this whatsoever God of War came here not for jackie but for Lana. Grandpa, think about it, I heard that Joseph is still single and Lana is so attractive and has a good body figure. So, I’m sure that he is here for Lana rather than jackie!”

Theodore, beside them, immediately chimed in, “Ivan’s analysis has a point. jackie, although he has been a soldier for five years and saved Lana before, Joseph probably does not even know of jackie’s existence. So, how can he come here for jackie? I guess he used jackie’s wedding as an excuse to meet Lana. Besides, where Joseph is staying is not far from Eastfield!”

Ivan bobbed his head to echo. “Dad is right! And maybe Lana informed him about the wedding, so that’s why…”

Old Master Taylor, however, shook his head. “Didn’t you see Joseph taking out a bank card and handed it over to Selena? And I think there must be a lot of money in it, otherwise, there is no need to give a bank card specifically!”

“That I do not know. Around ten million or one to two hundred million, I guess? After all, he is a God of War, he can’t be too stingy with his gift, right?”

Ivan commented after giving the matter some thoughts.

After all, sending a hundred thousand worth of gifts was not uncommon among some filthy rich businessmen. Some prominent families would even give more.

And for a man with such high status like the God of War, it was estimated to be not less than a hundred thousand.

The Taylor family entered the elevator and came up to the rooftop.

When they came out of the elevator, Old Master Taylor was nothing but full of smiles and wrinkles at the corners of his eyes. The decoration here was obviously better than Cecilia’s, and the venue was at least twice as spacious. The singers that jackie hired were not of B-list but A-list and even beyond. The overall status and atmosphere was so different compared to Cecilia’s, so Old Master Taylor naturally felt happier here.

“Hey, Old Master Taylor, why are you late? I was looking for you just now, and I wondered why were you not here yet.”

A marshal approached the Taylors with a wide grin on his face when he spotted them.

Old Master Taylor—Zeus Taylor—smiled awkwardly and explained, “Both of my lovely granddaughters are having their big day today! Cecilia is my granddaughter as well, so it won’t be great if I didn’t go over and give her my blessing, right? I went there and stayed there for a short while before I rushed over, it’s fine!”

Zeus, after finishing saying his last sentence, came up to Selena smilingly and handed her a gift.

However, to everyone’s surprise, after giving out an archaic jade of the Taylor family to Selena, he did not stop there, “Selena, you’re now jobless. And I plan to let you come back to help with Taylor’s company. I plan to open another new company and let you be in charge of it!”

“Grandpa…”

Selena was moved at his words. It looked like Old Man Taylor did not really despise her, and she was still in his heart. After all, her business-managing ability was indeed ten times stronger than Ivan’s.

“It’s set now! And you can’t refuse this time. It’s time we let bygones be bygones, alright? You’re still my favorite granddaughter!”

Old Master Taylor held her hand firmly and said with immense emotion, “The suffering times have passed, Selena.”

“Grandpa, today is my big day, it’s supposed to be all smiles and laughter. Let’s not talk about these!”

jackie smiled faintly. In his heart, he knew very well that the change in Old Master Taylor’s attitude toward Selena was nothing but because of the fame and reputation.

Chapter 849 Now that the owner of Daxia Juwel was here at jackie’s wedding, coupled with the arrival of Joseph and Lana, the two Gods of War, this kind of spectacle was absolutely rare. Imagine the fame and reputation that they would bring to the Taylor family in the future, if the Taylors announce the establishment of a new company and the person in charge was Selena, this company would certainly have a bright future.

“The Drake family is here!”

A man from the scene exclaimed aloud. At this point in time, he was not expecting James from the Drake family to come.

After all, jackie beat Timothy up not long ago, hence the possibility of James coming to jackie’s wedding was near to zero.

But, now that James, Tanya, and the other Drakes attended his wedding. All of them were wearing sunny and lovely smiles on their faces.

In reality, earlier this morning, James was hesitating whether to attend the wedding. After all, jackie had beaten Timothy up, thus, if he came, it would be ignominy and humiliation to him. He did not feel good about that.

However, at the same time, he was pondering whether any God of war would attend jackie’s wedding. In the birthday party last time in Taylor’s residence, he had established some social network with God of war and some Kings of War and left them his contact information. This was a huge gain for him too. So if he did not come over and give jackie his blessing, would it not prove that he was petty and wanted to cut ties with jackie?

After thinking hard about it for a long time, he finally decided to send someone to attend the wedding first, to scout around. Only after he knew that Lana was there, he immediately got ready and brought the other Drakes here.

To his surprise, not only he managed to meet Lana this time, but also the man beside Lana—Joseph Smith, another God of War.

Within him, he was overwhelmed with shock, at the same time panicking. He never saw that coming, that Joseph Smith was here. Was he here for jackie’s wedding as well?

“It’s my honor to meet you, Mr. Smith, the God of War!”

James stepped forward and immediately gave Joseph a palm-fist salute. He was shocked down to the soles of his shoes that his little heart could barely calm down.

“Great to meet you, Sir!”

The other Drakes were startled and slowly when they found their senses, they quickly bowed and greeted Joseph.

“Oh, don’t have to be so formal. Chill! I’m here today to attend jackie’s wedding and to meet his lovely wife. So, everyone just let loose and have tons of drinks and good food later!”

Joseph chortled elatedly.

When people in Eastfield knew that another God of War had come to jackie’s wedding, many people who did not have any relationship with the Taylor family had also rushed over to send gifts and blessings. The crowd was growing bigger and bigger.

Now, the place was lively and merry.

On the other side, on top of the six-star hotel across the street, Cecelia smoldered with resentment that colors were drained out of her face. Her eyes fixated at the rooftop of the other hotel, and huffed bitterly, “James Drake, that jerk! He is just so shameless, isn’t he? Although Timothy is only lightly wounded, jackie was still the one who beat him up, how could James forget this so quickly? How could he be there and not be here!”

The head of the Gold family was smoking a cigarette on the side, his face turned unsightly as well. He had spent so much time and energy to prepare such a magnificent wedding for his son.

He could not imagine that nobody came to Cecilia’s wedding. Even those who came, only stayed for a while, left their presents, and then went over to jackie’s wedding. Some of them sent their people over to give the presents and none of them had stayed. Everyone went over to see the hustle and bustle happening at jackie’s wedding. He was rendered speechless at the scene.

“This is a total humiliation to the Gold family!”

In the end, the head of the Gold family could not do anything but sighed.

Chapter 850 The more Kelly Gold thought about it, the more the anger flooded his veins. He shot Cecelia a deadly glare and barked, “Cecelia, is your brain filled with grass or what? Why do you have to have a wedding on the same day as Selena? If we were two days earlier or later, it won’t be this terrible. Now look, I can actually hear a pin drop!”

Cecelia was tongue-tied, at the same time, she was burning with rage. She did not expect Kelly to shove all the blame onto her.

She returned the glare to Kelly, an exasperated one, and started complaining, “Kelly Gold, how could you blame me on this? You’re part of it as well, do you remember? You are responsible for this too! When I mentioned my plan to you, you agreed to it! Why didn’t you oppose it back then?”

“All right, all right, stop arguing!”

The head of the Gold family stepped forward and stopped the fight. He felt a flash of irritation at their argument. “Today is your wedding day, if you argue, you’ll become even more like a joke! Do you want to be that?”

“Huh, look, look over there! Why is there another helicopter coming?”

Cecelia immediately noticed something strange and pointed in the direction.

“Yeah, you’re right. There’s another helicopter. Don’t tell me it’s here for jackie’s wedding again!”

Kelly was stunned at the view, then he commented with a bitter smile on his face.

“How is that possible? It’s impossible!”

The head of the Gold family said.

Nonetheless, they all went quiet the next moment when they found out that the helicopter was heading toward the top of the seven-star hotel. It hovered above the building and then lowered down to get near to the sightseeing platform.

“Ay, dios mio! Another helicopter, another one!”

The manager of the hotel quickly contacted his boss for him come over quickly. After all, two Gods of War were already here. Today, this scene was definitely enough to shake Eastfield.

She was standing outside the hotel and lifted her head to look at the big screen that was hanging on the wall of the building.

Soon, another man jumped from the helicopter, where the distance between the platform and the huge flying machine was estimated to be one to two hundred meters. He landed steadily on the platform.

The man—who was on bent knees after landing on the platform—had slowly stood up. The camera captured the man’s face clearly.

This man, who had caused another commotion, was actually Fernando Campbell, another God of War!

“Oh My God! I’m gonna faint soon. It’s Fernando Campbell!”

The manager of the hotel shouted in a direction, “Boss, come here! Quickly come here! From now on, our hotel is really going to be famous. Another God of War has come! Sh*t! I really didn’t expect that! Who the hell is jackie? Why on earth are these Gods of War here for him?”

“Alright, good! Three Gods of War are here. We must give them a huge discount for the hotel and the banquet. In fact, they’re doing us a bigger favor by being here. We now have a slogan for our next advertisement for the hotel. Just imagine, ‘Gods of War in The Seven’, doesn’t this sound great? With advertisements like this, our hotel will be beaming in no time!”

The owner of the hotel exclaimed excitedly; his voice was trembling.

“Fernando Campbell, the God of War!”

When James and the others had finally registered into their brains the fact that Fernando was here. They let out a long breath with a hint of shock and surprise. Fernando Campbell was another powerful God of War, and his combat prowess could definitely be considered as first or second among the nine Gods of War.

Nobody had expected to see such a marvelous figure here at jackie’s wedding.

“My pleasure to meet you, dear God of War!”
