Chapter 1321 Dante and Ingrid were stunned. It took them a while to come to their senses. Their expressions were filled with gratitude and excitement. "I wonder how Young Master Luo and Mr. Chen have become friends. He is quite a powerful person!" "No wonder he could cure my illness. Mr. Chen's medical skills are exemplary; it's remarkable!" While he was filled with excitement, Dante looked at Ingrid and said, "Do you now realize how wrong you were just now?" Ingrid blushed and said, "I... I didn't actually expect him to be that powerful." "Well, now that we know it, you should apologize to Mr. Chen later. You'll need to ask for his forgiveness." Dante advised. Ingrid nodded while her mood was still in a roller coaster. It seemed that she could not accept that Fade was really that powerful. Dante called his secretary to discuss arranging for a gift as an expression of their gratitude towards Fade. After going through the ordeal, they realized that Fade was an extraordinary person. They had prepared some gifts in advance but found that they were not up to standard and therefore, they prepared some other gifts instead. Just as they were in their discussion, Dante's wife rushed into the room in panic. "What's wrong?" Dante asked. His wife's face was pale and something seemed to have scared the wits out of her. She didn't say much, but just handed him a piece of paper to read, "Dante, you have a look. When handing over the paper, his wife's hands were still trembling and she seemed terrified. "Mom, what's the matter with you? Why are you looking flustered?" Ingrid asked and was puzzled. At that moment, Dante took the paper and looked at the image on it. His expression changed drastically; he staggered and almost collapsed. His face went pale and he murmured, "He... He is back. He... is finally back... "Dad, what's wrong with you? Are you feeling unwell?" When Ingrid saw that, she was really anxious. Dante sat still for a while, shook his head and then replied, When he was replying, his face looked ghastly pale. "I... I'm fine. He then sighed and said, "What will come will come eventually. Secretary Qin, inform them to cancel the dinner." "Ingrid, let's go out and apologize to Mr. Chen before we see him off. We cannot involve him in this matter." Dante said. "Dad, what the hell are you talking about? What's on the paper? Why are you canceling the dinner and seeing Mr. Chen off?" Ingrid was very puzzled. Dante waved and said, "I will tell you everything later. Let's go to the living room and apologize to Mr. Chen!" Meanwhile, Fade, who was sipping his tea in the living room, saw Dante and the rest walking out and was about to greet them. However, after observing Dante's pale and serious expression, he couldn't help but be taken aback, "Mr. Jee, what's the matter? You don't seem to look well. Are you not feeling alright?" Dante shook his head and said, "Mr. Chen, sincerely apologize as some family matters came up and we have to cancel the dinner. will have to invite you for dinner next time. Let me see you off for now." "This..." Fade was a little surprised. After all, Dante treated him warmly not too long ago and yet he wanted to see him off that moment. His attitude seemed to take a drastic change. However, it was not appropriate for him to probe further. Fade nodded and said, "Since you have something to attend to, I'll make a move first." Fade got up to leave and Dante saw him off right away. Just as they walked to the door, Fade turned around and suddenly saw the image on the white paper in Dante's hand. He shivered and froze on the spot. He said to Dante in a deep voice, "Mr. Jee, can you let me take a look at that?" "Ah... Dante was stunned. He lowered his head to look at the paper in his hand and said, "Mr. Chen, this..." Fade said coldly, "If I'm not mistaken, the image is a logo of a skeleton which has a sprout on its eyebrows!" "How... How did you know?" Dante was shocked and quickly unfolded the paper. The image on the paper was a black skull and there was a green sprout between the skeleton's eyebrows. Fade saw it clearly, his expression sank and he said coldly, "It is really the Skull Mob logo. haven't seen this for a while, but I didn't expect them to show up again." "Mr. Chen, do you... Do you know this symbol? What kind of organization is this Skull Mob?" Dante looked confused. Fade did not reply but instead asked further, "Can you tell me where this blank paper came from? What happened to your family? "This, I..." Dante hesitated and sighed, "It is a long story. We may need to go to the room and I will explain more." They then returned to the living room. All the servants were requested to leave and there were only Dante's family and Fade left. Dante glanced at the white paper which was placed on the coffee table. He started slowly to talk about it, "It started twenty years ago when I founded Dante Entertainment. The company then was still small and had limited resources. It was also targeted by many big companies at that time and was about to go bust. "Just when the company was hanging on the balance, a person named Gabriel Wei approached and said that he could help me bring up the company. I didn't believe it at first, but later, Gabriel managed to bring in a few ventures and helped to stabilize the company. With that, I started to believe in him and invited him to be a part of the company." "To show my sincerity, was willing to give him 30% of the company's shares so that he would become the company's second largest shareholder and also serve as the company's general manager who would be responsible for the company's operations. After all, Gabriel's performance was a lot better than mine." "But Gabriel said that he only wanted shares and didn't want to be the general manager. He just wanted to be free from obligations. Upon knowing his intention, I didn't force him further. Gradually, with our collaboration, the company developed rapidly and was becoming a lot more valuable." "Gabriel was still the second largest shareholder of the company. Although he rarely appeared in the company and seldom ran the operations, had always been grateful for his contributions toward the company during that critical moment." "Initially, I planned to have Gabriel as a dividend shareholder, but I didn't expect that an actress of our company filed a complaint with me, stating that he often harassed the actresses and behaved inappropriately towards them." "I was very angry when I heard that. spoke to Gabriel once and asked him to be mindful of his image. I warned him not to have any interaction with the actresses. If he really couldn't help it, he could use his money to find a woman."
Chapter 1322 "He promised me at that point in time, but soon there was news again about the actresses going out with him in private and hanging around at his villa. At first, I thought it was some actresses who wanted to climb up the ranks fast, hence sticking with Gabriel proactively. I even held a meeting specifically to give those actresses a warning not to mess around." "But not long after that meeting, something major happened. A newly joined actress was found dead in Gabriel's villa. I thought that he was acting recklessly and caused an accident. was very upset and then gave him a strict warning. I advised him to settle the matter with money and not to do anything reckless again." "However, what I didn't expect was that the police later found out that it was not just an accident, but a series of murder cases. In three years, more than 20 women had come into contact with Gabriel and all of them eventually disappeared or even died one after another. Gabriel was the culprit behind all of those incidents." "The police later arrested him. I found out more about the incidents from the police. Gabriel is apparently a martial artist. He seemed to have adopted some strange martial arts cultivation technique and needed the blood of women to help him in the cultivation." "In particular, blood from young and beautiful virgins was more beneficial for his cultivation. It was why Gabriel was willing to help me expand the company previously. He would then use the identity of a shareholder to be in contact with the girls, brought them back to his villa and then tortured them for the cultivation. In the end, he would kill them after their blood had been drained. Upon Dante's explanation, Fade's expression became gloomy while Ingrid's eyes were full of shock. She covered her mouth and was dumbfounded. Dante paused for a moment and continued to explain, "The police spent a lot of effort in hunting him down, but Gabriel's strength was extraordinary and his whereabouts were mysterious. The police therefore could never apprehend him." "When Gabriel knew that the incidents were uncovered, he blamed for betraying him and treated me as the greatest enemy. He threatened that he would take his revenge on me." "Because of that, contacted people in the martial arts world and asked my friends to hire many master artists to protect me and my family. However, over the years, there were several attacks which almost cost me my life. Each attack will leave behind a skeleton image with Gabriel's signature" "I know that he wants to take revenge on me so I hired the strongest bodyguards whom could possibly find. However, during the last attack a year ago, one of the Black Level bodyguards whom I hired had his legs crippled. He told me that Gabriel's strength has probably reached the Earth Level, and it is something they could not deal with." "Furthermore, at that level, it is almost impossible to hire a bodyguard even with money. I can only find other ways or even through connections to ask an Earth Level expert to help. "I have spent a lot of effort, but I didn't get anything. After all, the status of an Earth Level expert is no less than mine. Why would he stay by my side to be my bodyguard? Even if there are some bodyguards and mercenaries of the same level at the international level, I can't afford their price. really can't hire them." "I know that when Gabriel attacks next, I will almost certainly die. However, I didn't expect that his attack will be so soon, and it's only been a year since the last attack. After that, Dante sighed and then collapsed in the chair. Dante's wife's face turned pale. She reached out to hold her husband's hand with a gentle squeeze. Ingrid seemed to be in disbelief and said emotionally, "Dad, it won't happen. You won't die. There must be a way. Let's hire bodyguards and get some powerful ones to help us." "Shouldn't we contact the police too? Isn't Gabriel still wanted? Let's alert the police and have them arrest him. It should be possible." Dante shook his head and said, "It's useless, Ingrid. It's not possible to hire any bodyguards at the Earth Level at all. Even if we can hire them, they may not be able to sustain Gabriel's attack. After all, it's impossible for bodyguards to keep watch 24 hours a day." As for the police, Gabriel was able to escape for so many years and was not caught so he has his ways of dodging it. "But Dad, you, I..." Ingrid was worried and anxious, but there was nothing she could do and she didn't know what to say either. On the other hand, Fade's expression became cold at that moment. He lowered his head and muttered to himself, "Gabriel absorbs the blood of women to cultivate. The people from the Skull Mob whom I have come across before seem to practice a similar cultivation technique. Jeremy who was also taken away, was found to have had the blood in his body sucked away." "It looks that the Skull Mob's cultivation techniques or any other aspects have a lot to do with blood." Fade nodded his head gently and said to himself, "The last time I checked, the Skull Mob people were still in the Hamlin City of the Westamor District. After destroying one of their bases, the members of the mob kept a low profile. I didn't expect them to reappear." Listening to Fade's whisper, Dante said, "Mr. Chen, what are you talking about?" "It's nothing!" Fade waved his hand and replied. Dante immediately said, "Mr. Chen, Gabriel will attack me in three days after sending me the message. It will be too dangerous, therefore, will not let you stay for dinner. Another day perhaps, if survive, will then like to express my gratitude. "Dad, you'll be fine," Ingrid said with tears flowing down off her face. Dante's wife also held his hand tightly with an expression of encouragement. Dante shook his head and smiled at them, "You two, pack up and leave the country for your own safety." "Dad, I will not leave... "Dante, what are you talking about! We are family. How can I leave you at this moment?" Dante said, "But... The whole family looked sad, and the entire room was filled with hopelessness and pessimism. At that moment, Fade shouted, "Mr. Jee, don't you worry. In fact, it's not impossible to solve this matter." "Ah... Dante was surprised when he heard that and immediately said, "Do you know a martial artist at the Earth Level?" Fade said softly, "You don't have to know. I'll handle it." "Mr. Chen, you..." Dante looked puzzled. Fade said, "I mean, I will be your bodyguard in the next three days. Let me handle Gabriel's attack. "This... This is no joke. Gabriel is an Earth Level expert. This..." Dante said. Ingrid chipped in as well, "You are a medical genius, but this is a matter of martial arts. You can't intervene." "In fact, I'm not only a doctor, but also a martial arts practitioner. I'm actually quite powerful." Fade said.
Chapter 1323 Fade said it seriously while the three of the Jee family members had a look of disbelief on their faces. When Fade saw their expression and he was unable to think of a way to convince them. He paused and pondered for a while. Looking at his expression, Dante said, "Mr. Chen, I appreciate your kindness and help. However, this is extremely dangerous and I can't involve you in this. You should leave!" At that instant, Fade's eyes lit up and he suddenly thought of something. He clapped his hands and said, "Yes, I got it!" "What is it?" Dante asked curiously. Fade took out his cell phone. While he waited for the call to be connected, he explained to them, "Since you don't believe in my capability, I am now looking for an Earth Level expert for you." "What!" When they heard what he said, they were petrified and looked at Fade. Dante clearly knew how difficult it was to invite an Earth Level master. However, from the way Fade said it, it sounded like a small and simple matter. He could just make a phone call to get one. "Mr. Chen, this..." Dante wanted to say something. At that moment, the call was connected. He made a gesture to Dante and then said to the person on the call, "Fade here. I am at Mr. Jee's home from Dante Entertainment. Please come over right now!" He spoke in brief with a tone of command, then hung up as soon as the message was conveyed. His behavior left them puzzled and surprised. After making the call, Fade looked relaxed. He asked Dante to sit down and then said, "Don't worry. I've invited someone over. Now tell me more about Gabriel and the symbol of the skeleton." Dante's face was still full of doubts and disbelief, but looking at Fade's relaxed expression, he obliged, sat down and continued with the conversation. About half an hour later, someone walked in and informed, "Mr. Jee, we have a guest. "Who is it?" Dante asked. Fade stood up and said, "He should be the person whom I have called just now. Please let him in." Dante nodded and the servant went out immediately. Soon, a man walked into the living room, led by a servant. Dante stood up and went to greet the man. He was after all invited by Fade to help him. However, when he saw the man's face, he froze and looked doubtful. After a moment of shock, Dante finally came to his senses. He quickly stepped forward and stretched out his hands and said, "Master Szeto, why are you here? Please have a seat." It was actually Kaeran Szeto, the principal of the Szeto Academy. Over the past two years, Szeto Academy had made a name for itself in Capital City. The principal of the academy, Kaeran, had also made a lot of friends there. Dante was naturally one of them. When Dante was looking for bodyguards everywhere, he had asked for Kaeran's help. However, it was too difficult to hire bodyguards of the Earth Level and Kaeran could not find the right one in the end. However, that day, Kaeran actually appeared at his house in person, which made Dante very surprised. He asked curiously, "What can I do for you since I have the honor to have you here?" Kaeran was stunned for a moment, then he looked over at Fade and explained, "Mr. Jee, Mr. Chen was the one who called me and asked me to come over" "Ah, this... Dante was shocked when he heard this. He looked at Fade and then to Kaeran again. His expression was in disbelief, "Mr. Chen, do you mean the person whom you mentioned is actually Master Szeto?" Fade smiled and said, "It's him. His strength is at the middle stage of the Earth Level. He is qualified to be your bodyguard. "He meets the requirements! Of course he meets the requirements!" Dante quickly nodded. He had already known that Kaeran was an Earth Level expert. However, he had never considered having Kaeran be his bodyguard. After all, Kaeran's position in Capital City was equal to that of Dante's. How could he afford to offend him by asking him to be his bodyguard? However, Fade could actually ask Kaeran to come over and make him Dante's bodyguard by just making a phone call. It was really unbelievable. At the same time, he was also a little nervous. He looked at Kaeran and said, "Master Szeto, I am glad to have you be my bodyguard. I... I'm sorry if I have offended you. I... Kaeran understood what Dante actually meant. He waved his hand and said, "Mr. Jee, you don't have to worry about it. It's not a big deal. Besides, this is what Mr. Chen ordered me to do so of course, will do it well." "This..." Dante was shocked and could not help but glance at Fade. Master Szeto, who was a famous martial artist in Capital City, was respectful to Fade. Moreover, he said something like 'ordered' as if Fade was his master. Dante really didn't expect that. so Kaeran seemed to have noticed Dante's confusion and he smiled. He then explained, "From now on, I and the members of the Szeto Academy will follow Mr. Chen's orders." That gave Dante a shock and he was rather astonished. Hearing Kaeran's words, Fade was truly his master. At that moment, Dante looked at Fade with his gaze filled with disbelief and shock. He never expected that apart from being a medical genius, Fade also had such a powerful identity. As for Ingrid and her mother, they were completely petrified and speechless. Looking at that, Fade smiled and said, "Don't just stand there. Let's sit down and talk. Mr. Jee, please tell Master Szeto about Gabriel so that he can be prepared." "Okay, let me explain." Dante nodded in agreement and then told Kaeran about Gabriel's revenge. After listening to Dante's story, he nodded and thought for a moment before he said, "According to your description, Gabriel's strength should be that of the early stage of the Earth Level. There may be some improvements, so he might probably be at the middle stage of the Earth Level, which is equal to mine. I should have no problem dealing with him." Kaeran then looked at Fade again and said, "Of course, even if I can't deal with him, Mr. Chen will also be there for sure. "What!" Dante could not help but feel curious. He asked, "Is Fade really a master of martial arts?" After they chatted for a while, Kaeran patted his chest to ensure that there was no problem, which made Dante feel relieved. He instructed his servants to prepare food. They soon had dinner, feeling more relieved.
Chapter 1324 The dinner lasted for two hours. When everyone was full, it was rather late at night. Dante's face was red. He stood up and said, "It's getting late. Gabriel probably won't come today. I've sent someone to prepare a room for both of you. You may want to take a rest. Thank you again for your help." Kaeran waved his hand, gesturing that Dante didn't need to thank him. He then turned around and was about to leave. At that moment, there was a sudden whooshing sound and a black shadow quickly approached the Jee family's yard. Dante saw what was coming and was stunned. He frowned and asked, "What is it?* Meanwhile, the shadow was closing in on them. It was in the air above the courtyard and it was clearly the shadow of a person. The figure burst into laughter and landed on the lawn of the courtyard. "Dante, you are really considerate! You are dying but you are still in the mood to drink. You have a good state of mind!" Dante's expression was frozen. He stared at the black shadow and looked at it carefully. "You... Are you Gabriel?" The black shadow took off the hood and showed a ferocious face. He glared at Dante and said, "After so many years, you can still recognize me. I'm rather relieved." He then changed the topic and said with a cold smile, "However, today is the day you die. Dante trembled and wanted to explain. "Gabriel, I didn't betray you in those years. Moreover, what you did is too much. I... "Shut up!" Gabriel snorted and interrupted him. He said in a cold voice, "You are still hypocritical. Do you think it's useful? Do you think I will spare your life?" "I didn't mean that, but I don't want to see you end up like this. I... Dante said. "Like this?" Gabriel said coldly, "I am living a very good life right now. If it wasn't for you, I would not have been forced to flee to the ends of the earth. My cultivation might not have progressed so quickly, and I wouldn't have been what am today" "With all due respect, perhaps I have to thank you!" Gabriel said with a sneer, "Of course, the way I thank you is to take your life." As Gabriel stepped forward and spoke. There was a black mist around his fingertips, which carried a terrifying energy, "Tell me, how do you wish to die?" Dante instinctively took a few steps back in fear. At the same time, he stood in front of his wife and daughter and said, "Don't you dare mess around." Gabriel glanced at the two people, licked his tongue and said with an obscene smirk, "It has been more than 20 years, but Mrs. Jee still looks beautiful. It really makes me envious!" "This must be Ingrid. You've grown up and are such a beauty! It looks like you're still a virgin, which is suitable for my cultivation. Don't worry, I'll take good care of you later." Dante was furious. He glared at Gabriel, gritted his teeth and said, "If you dare to attack them, I will tear you to pieces. "Tear me into pieces." Gabriel laughed. He looked at Dante and continued to move forward, "You'd better think about it now. Do you have any last words? Because you are going to die soon." As he spoke, Gabriel raised his right hand, emitting a black mist that shot directly towards Dante's heart. Fade, who was sitting still, said to Kaeran with his gaze moving slightly, "He has just reached the middle stage of the Earth Level not too long ago. He is no match for you. Go ahead and attack him!" "Yes!" Kaeran nodded. He immediately rushed out. At the same time, he waved his hand and created a glimmer of energy which shattered the black mist from Gabriel. "Mr. Jee, please leave with your wife and daughter. I'll deal with him. Kaeran said. "Thank you, Master Szeto." Dante quickly protected his daughter and wife while stepping backwards. At that moment, Gabriel, who was dressed in black, shifted his gaze to Kaeran and looked over at him. Then, he turned to Dante and said, "This is the bodyguard you hired? He is not bad!" His voice then sank and said coldly, "However, it's just not bad. All of you are going to die!" As he spoke, a black mist burst out from Gabriel's body and it flew towards Kaeran forcefully. The black mist with its nauseating smell and looking as if it was going to corrode people, started to spread around Kaeran. Meanwhile, Gabriel was like a giant bird amidst the black mist, ready to rush forward any time to strike a fatal attack. Facing the aggressive attack, Kaeran frowned slightly and then snorted coldly. He waved his fingers while streaks of energy radiated from his body. The radiance turned into many energy swords in the air which dropped densely like raindrops. "Thousand Swords Rain!" The dense sword rain directly smashed the black fog, making it impossible for Gabriel, who was in the mist, to dodge. He retreated to the outer range of the sword rain force. He stared at Kaeran with a stern expression and said in a low voice, "You are an Earth Level martial artist too?" Kaeran snorted, "You just realized?" He didn't stop moving. Many tiny sword raindrops consolidated at his fingertips, then transformed into a huge sharp sword that flew toward Gabriel. The sword had a terrifying and ferocious force and its speed was extremely fast. The sword burst out and moved swiftly through the air. Gabriel was dodging very quickly and yet was slow given the attack of the fast approaching swords. As a result, the left side of his waist was scratched by a sword. A piece of flesh was cut and blood was gushing out. Gabriel shivered and his face turned pale. He staggered a couple of times. "You've reached the middle stage of the Earth Level!" Gabriel covered the wound on his waist and stopped his bleeding using positive energy. He was shocked while pointing at Kaeran. Kaeran repeated the same with a cold voice, "You just realized?" He attacked repeatedly and struck forward. Gabriel was no match for him, so he could only avoid his attack constantly. However, he could not dodge in time and blood splattered when he was hit making him become paler. Even though Dante knew that Kaeran had a great reputation and was a middle stage Earth Level expert, he was still very surprised to see him suppressing Gabriel. Ingrid was very surprised too. She clapped her hands and jumped up, "Great! Master Szeto is so powerful. He'll defeat Gabriel. Dad, you will be safe." His wife, looking very pleased, said to Dante, "And from now on, you can sleep well." The whole family was delighted at that moment.
Chapter 1325 At that moment, Gabriel, who had been hit repeatedly, saw what was happening. His gaze became dark and sullen while his expression showed much hatred. He gnashed his teeth and said, "Dante, you want to have a good sleep! Things are not that simple." Shortly after, Gabriel's energy exploded and a gush of black air emerged. With the insane energy outburst, he managed to block Kaeran's series of attacks. Gabriel then let out a roar and shouted, "Master White Claw, it's your turn to make your move!" Hearing the cry, the Jee family was stunned. They shivered, frowned and had an ominous feeling in their hearts. While Gabriel was shouting, a figure suddenly drifted over and appeared in the courtyard. The figure was dressed in black and his white hair was fluttering. He looked like a sage from a distance, but upon closer look, one would find him evil due to his narrow and cold gaze. When Kaeran saw the old man approaching, he had a chilling feeling and could sense the impending danger. He took a few steps backward. Dante did not understand martial arts, but he could feel the old man's terrifying aura. His expression suddenly became sullen. Ingrid looked at the elder with surprise. She pointed at him and exclaimed, "You... Aren't you the elder immortal? How... How could you..." Everyone was shocked. Dante looked at his daughter and asked, "Ingrid, what's going on?" Ingrid explained. "Dad, he is the elder immortal whom I met in the temple. He was the one who gave me the magic pill that you took. "What? This..." Dante's face turned pale and his expression became even more unsightly. At that moment, Gabriel sneered, "Elder immortal! This is my master, Master White Claw. I initially wanted you to suffer and die slowly, so I asked him to play along and give you the so-called magic pill." "However, I didn't expect you to be so lucky. You actually had someone to treat your illness. Thus, I have to kill you myself, Gabriel sneered. When Ingrid heard that, her face turned pale and her lips trembled. She didn't expect that the life-saving magic pill she had tried so hard to get for her father turned out to be the deadly poison which Gabriel had deliberately arranged. If it wasn't for Fade, she would have fallen into his trap and killed her father with her own hands. Ingrid shivered thinking about it with a sense of coldness and fear surging in her heart. Dante's mood was so different from his daughter's. He gently held his daughter's shoulder and comforted her softly, "Don't worry, Ingrid. With Master Szeto here, we'll be alright." Gabriel laughed, "Will be alright? Do you think you can stop Master White Claw with a middle stage Earth Level martial artist? Master White Claw is the top martial artist at the advanced stage of Earth Level." The three Jee family members and Kaeran were all shocked. In the martial arts world, the Earth Level experts were in the ranks of the masters. The advanced stage of the Earth Level martial artists were the best among the experts and there were very few of them. Gabriel actually invited an advanced stage of the Earth Level expert. Even Kaeran would not be able to stop him. The faces of the three Jee family members, who had originally thought that they would be able to survive, suddenly darkened and their expressions turned ugly. While Gabriel's face was full of pride. He gave the elder a clenched fist salute and said, "Master, I would appreciate your help." With his hands behind his back, Master White Claw stepped forward and was sizing Kaeran up. He smiled and said, "The middle stage of the Earth-Level has a solid foundation. Your strength is good." "However, it is a pity that you have to face me. You are fated to meet your doom. While speaking, White Claw waved his long sleeves and a stream of black energy struck Kaeran. It looked like Kaeran's strength was similar to Gabriel's earlier, but at that moment he felt a huge pressure. It seemed like he met a great opponent. He was bursting with energy and he gritted his teeth with furrowed eyebrows, fiercely resisting the opponent's attack. The violent energy exploded incessantly, damaging a lot of exquisite and expensive decorations in the courtyard, turning them into ashes. It was a challenging attack to resist, and Kaeran was forced backward meters away, stopping right in front of Dante. There was blood at the corner of his mouth and he looked pale. It looked like he was injured during the attack. At the other end, White Claw was calm, with a smile on his face while he continued to move forward, The Middle stage Earth Level is not easy to cultivate. To destroy one's cultivation for the sake of serving a mortal as a bodyguard, do you think it's worth it?" Kaeran gritted his teeth and frowned. He didn't say a word but his expression was firm. He had no intention of retreating. It was because it was Fade who told him to do that. If he failed, he knew how terrible the consequences would be. White Claw didn't expect Kaeran's thoughts. He shook his head and said, "Stubborn! If that's the case, then just go to hell! He stared at Kaeran with a horrifying killing intent in his eyes. A burst of energy suddenly burst out like a long black sword and it shot directly towards Kaeran's heart. Kaeran had a tingling feeling in his scalp, sensing that a fatal threat was approaching, and he became a little untenable. In such a critical situation, Dante's and the others' hearts skipped a beat. Their faces were filled with despair while they gritted their teeth. They trembled uncontrollably. At that moment, a faint voice could be heard, "That's enough! Step back. I'll handle this!" As he spoke, an invisible energy shield appeared right in front of Kaeran, blocking him from the terrifying black sword attack. Kaeran suddenly felt relieved and took a deep breath. He then gave a clenched fist salute to Fade before he retreated, "Mr. Chen!" The eyes of the White Claw and Gabriel fell on Fade at the same time. They saw Fade who was still sitting quietly and sipping his tea. They stared at him with a sharp, cold gaze. The three Jee family members also looked over. They looked nervous and anxious as they were worried about him. "Mr. Chen, you... At that moment, Gabriel's eyes darkened. He stepped forward and shouted at Fade, "You are talking nonsense! Do you want to die?" As he spoke, Gabriel stretched out his hand and clapped. A majestic energy rushed towards Fade, aiming to kill him with the deadly strike.
Chapter 1326 "Get lost!" Facing Gabriel's attack, Fade shouted coldly. A surge of energy emanated from his body and struck at Gabriel. In an instant, the ferocious Gabriel was hit by the energy and it was as if he was hammered aggressively through the air. He flew backwards and spat out blood into countless droplets in the air which splattered everywhere onto the ground. "Bang!" Gabriel bounced several times like a ball before he finally fell heavily on the ground. At that moment, he could no longer move. He looked ghastly pale with blood all over his face. With just one move, Fade defeated Gabriel who was at the middle stage of the Earth Level. He was so severely injured that he could not get up. The outcome was completely beyond everyone's expectations. For a moment, the scene went into a complete silence. Everyone was focused on Fade. "How... How is this possible?" "Do you really know martial arts, Mr. Chen?" "Am I dreaming?" The Jee family members were extremely surprised and looked at Fade in disbelief. Kaeran, on the other hand, smiled and explained, "Mr. Chen's capability is something that many people can't imagine" Meanwhile, the face of the white-haired Master White Claw darkened and he looked surprised. He waved his hand and a stream of energy flowed into Gabriel's body which helped to stabilize his breathing. His gaze shifted quickly towards Fade. He strode forward and said in a low voice, "This is interesting. Defeating Gabriel with just one move. It seems that your strength should be at least in the middle stage of the Earth Level, or you might have possibly attained the advanced stage of the Earth Level, which is equal to me." "However, even at that level, there's still a huge gap in capability. I've been at the advanced stage of the Earth Level for over ten years. I'll let you experience my strength and power," Master White Claw said confidently. When the Jee family heard that, they became nervous again after feeling relieved earlier. However, Fade couldn't care less. His brows furrowed and he said, "If you want a battle, let's do it. Do you have to talk any more nonsense?" "You... You are looking for death!" White Claw's face darkened and he snorted coldly. His white hair fluttered in the wind as he charged towards Fade. White Claw really lived up to his name as Gabriel's master. His strength was indeed extraordinary. The moment he made his move, his energy force enveloped the entire Jee family's courtyard, bringing with it a suffocating and terrifying oppressive pressure. Facing that kind of energy force, Fade frowned and felt the pressure for a moment. Then he said, "The stench is familiar. It's true that the people of the Skull Mob are of similar characters!" When Master White Claw, who was very proud earlier, heard Fade mentioning the Skull Mob, his face turned serious and he snapped, "How do you know about the Skull Mob? Who the hell are you?" Fade said coldly, "Who am I? The enemy of your so-called Skull Mob." "Playing with me!" Master White Claw said coldly, "I'll capture and interrogate you soon. I'll let you know what it means to suffer torture which is worse than death. When that time comes, you'll definitely tell me the truth!" He became even more ferocious. A layer of black fog encircled him, then he swooped down on Fade suddenly. Fade condensed fiery red energy and it turned into a long sword with burning flames in the air. He raised his long sword with burning flames and formed a fiery red force in the air which destroyed Master White Claw's black fog. With a sharp and burning energy, it thrust towards Master White Claw's chest. "Nineblaze Sword!" It was one of those techniques which Fade had learned from the Nine Sun Flaming Skill. It carried a terrifying fiery positive energy which turned into a raging flame and burned the opponent completely. Master White Claw truly felt Fade's power. His expression sank and he retreated quickly to avoid Fade's flaming long sword. However, Fade moved faster and eventually caught up and his long sword kept thrusting forward. Looking at the situation, Master White Claw gritted his teeth and his gaze was cold. There was a flash of light between his eyebrows and a symbol of the Skull Mob soon appeared. The symbol emitted a thick, heavy black gas which was like sticky black blood. It then formed a skeleton in front of Master White Claw. At the same time, the entire courtyard seemed to be shrouded in an invisible black fog. Surrounded by gusts of cold wind and black fog with the rustling sound like an evil ghost from hell, it created a feeling of suffocation and fear. "Kill him!" Master White Claw's face turned pale. With a loud roar, the skeleton in front of him flew towards Fade and started attacking. The skeleton grinned and let out a silent laugh. It spat out a thick black mist towards Fade's face.. The terrifying black fog with a strong corrosiveness seemed to destroy everything in front of it. However, Fade remained calm and was expressionless. He quietly did a palm strike. With a loud bang, a strong burst of energy shot out from his palm like an air cannon which suddenly detonated. A stream of compact energy thrust forward, crushing Master White Claw's skeleton into pieces which then turned into black mist. With the shriek of a whispering demon, the skeleton quickly dissipated. Master White Claw's confident attack was crushed by Fade's strike easily. No one expected that and it left Master White Claw completely shocked. He then thought of something, and his face darkened. He turned around and tried to flee. However, Fade was prepared. He snorted and made a grabbing gesture with his right hand. Invisible energy turned into a big hand in the air and lifted White Claw, who was fleeing, in mid-air. It caught and pressed him down hard to the ground. Then, Fade stepped towards White Claw. At that moment, White Claw, who struggled on the ground, was trying to break free from Fade's control and find a chance to escape. When Fade walked up in front of him, he felt a suffocating and terrifying pressure on him, like a huge rock that was crushing down on top of him. He was unable to break free and there was no chance to escape. Seeing that he had no chance of escaping, he could only lie on the ground. He looked at Fade coldly and said, "I am defeated this time. Just do whatever you want to do!" Fade shook his head and did not say much. He waved to Dante and said, "Mr. Jee, you should deal with it first!"
Chapter 1327 Dante was still immersed in the scene of Fade's horrifying strength at that moment and it took him a while to come to his senses. When Fade shouted, it made him alert and he quickly ran over. Standing in front of Gabriel, Dante said earnestly, "Gabriel, it's been so many years, I really want to know whether or not you still treasure our friendship?" Gabriel's face turned pale, he gritted his teeth and said, "There is no friendship between you and me at all. You betrayed me! If it wasn't for me, you would have starved to death a long time ago and you would not have achieved what you have today. You, Dante... Dante shook his head in disappointment when he saw Gabriel's expression. He sighed, turned around and said to Fade, "Mr. Chen, I have nothing more to say." "If that's the case, let me deal with mine now." Fade nodded. He then looked at Gabriel and White Claw and said, "Do you know why I spared your lives?" Gabriel and White Claw did not utter a word. They just looked at Fade with indifference and resentment. Fade said, "Actually, the reason is simple. I have something to ask of you." The two of them were silent again. After a while, White Claw said, "What is it then?" Fade said coldly, "It's about your organization, the Skull Mob! Why are you here? What's the internal structure of your organization? What's the characteristics of your cultivation method? There are many more questions... Before Fade could finish, Gabriel suddenly looked determined and said excitedly, "If you want to know more about our organization, don't even think about it. We won't be spilling any of it." "Really?" Fade looked at Gabriel and said coldly, "It will be useless then to let you live. "Go ahead and kill me. If you kill us, we won't reveal any secrets" Gabriel looked determined and raised his head to look at Fade. He seemed to be generous and righteous. However, Fade didn't buy what he saw and didn't hesitate at all. Seeing Gabriel's expression, he nodded and said coldly, "If you insist, allow me to fulfill it!" In an instant, Fade raised his right hand and waved it in the air. A burst of energy turned into a sharp dagger and sliced across Gabriel's neck. His movement was clean, swift and merciless, without any hesitation. Gabriel, who was originally full of determination, did not expect that Fade would be so decisive. Fade really killed him as he wished. Seeing that death was impending, he looked anxious. He moved his mouth and wanted to say something. However, there was no chance. Fade's blade swooshed down and sliced through Gabriel's neck. It was like a gentle touch, light and silent, as it sliced through his neck. Shortly, Gabriel's eyes widened, his head tilted and a thin crack appeared on his neck. The crack became wider and then blood gushed out. Gabriel's head fell to the ground, rolled and finally landed on the lawn. His body fell heavily onto the ground and blood splattered everywhere, as if it rained blood. Seeing that, the Jee family was shocked. They took a few steps back while their faces were full of astonishment. Although their status was not ordinary and they had experienced a lot, they had never seen such a horrendous killing prior to that. It happened right in front of them and it was committed by Fade, who was seemingly an ordinary young man. It was rather overwhelming and unbelievable for them. Moments after killing Gabriel with one move, Fade turned his gaze to White Claw and said coldly, "You are the only one left. Will you answer me?" White Claw looked at Gabriel's corpse, which was still bleeding. His pupils shrank and his gaze was filled with tension. He started to tremble. Fade, who was seemingly impatient, waited for a while, then raised his right hand again and said coldly, "Not answering! Then you'll join him!" Shortly, Fade's hands were surging with energy and he was about to attack White Claw. White Claw was shocked and pleaded in a hurry, "No, don't kill me. I'll tell you what you want to know." "Really?" Fade seemed to be a little surprised as he looked at him. White Claw nodded repeatedly and said, "It's true. I'll tell you everything. I won't miss a thing at all." "Alright then!" Fade nodded. "Get up and come with me. White Claw felt that the pressure on him was lifted. He immediately stood up with a nod and followed behind Fade obediently. At that moment, Fade looked at Dante and said, "Mr. Jee, is there a private room? I wish to discuss something with him." "Yes, certainly!" Dante nodded quickly and then went to arrange a room for Fade. A few minutes later, in the basement of the courtyard, Fade sat while White Claw knelt in front of him respectfully. Fade said, "Tell me about your Skull Mob first!" White Claw didn't dare to hide anything and started to tell him everything. After listening to it, Fade felt that it was similar to the information he had heard in Hamlin City. It was just that White Claw's information had more details, so he had found out more. However, the relationship between the higher levels and the lower levels in the Skull Mob was merely a engagement. White Claw didn't know much about the higher levels. It was vaguely confirmed that the senior leaders of the Skull Mob were recruiting people everywhere. Besides, it seemed that they had some kind of need for human blood. It was similar to Fade's earlier assumptions. After all, he still remembered deeply about the incident of Jeremy being caught and had his blood transfused. They didn't need to talk about it anymore. Fade immediately asked, "What is your purpose in Capital City? Don't tell me that you are only here to avenge Gabriel!" Fade did not believe that a master like White Claw would spend so much effort to avenge one of his subordinates. White Claw shook his head and said, "We didn't come for revenge. We even said that the revenge on Dante was done in passing. Our real purpose is to activate the Dragon Mausoleum." "Dragon Mausoleum!" Fade's face froze when he heard those two words again. He had heard from Kaeran that the Dragon Mausoleum was about to be activated. Many major clans and cultivation practitioners were secretly coveting the soon to be activated Dragon Mausoleum. It was expected that the people of the Skull Mob had also set their sights on it. For the sake of it, they had specially sent people to Capital City.
Chapter 1328 After a moment, Fade probed further, "How much do you know about the Dragon Mausoleum? Do you have any clues?" White Claw replied respectfully, "We don't know much. We heard about the news vaguely. Most of the news came from the Encyclo Hall. However, within the Skull Mob, we seem to have found something stating that whoever is entering the Dragon Mausoleum will need to be qualified first. To be qualified, one must compete for it." "What competition? What qualification?" Fade asked. White Claw shook his head and said, "I don't know much about it. Since we came, we only managed to find out about this." Fade stared at White Claw for a moment, making sure that he was not lying and then he went silent. He gave a deep thought about the Dragon Mausoleum. It seemed like it had involved many forces. He might need to take part in it. Then, Fade continued to interrogate White Claw, but he didn't get much valuable information out of him. Fade had to consider how to deal with White Claw subsequently. Killing him was naturally the easiest way. White Claw was indeed an expert at the advanced stage of Earth Level. Even within the Skull Mob, he was considered a high level member. With the death of such a high level member, the Skull Mob would definitely investigate and it would become a huge concern On the other hand, Fade just came to Capital City not long ago so there weren't many people by his side to help him. Other than Kaeran, who had just been subdued, and a small gang like Sawyer Gang, he didn't have many people around him. It might be wise if he kept White Claw by his side as his fighter. After all, White Claw's capability was not bad and he was one level more advanced than Kaeran. On the other hand, White Claw could keep his identity which was a good choice for Fade to assign him tasks which he could not execute himself. Thinking of this, Fade nodded and made up his mind. Then he looked at White Claw and asked, "Are you willing to join me?" White Claw was stunned. He quickly nodded and said, "I'm willing to be a part of your team forever, Mr. Chen." "Very well!" Fade nodded and then emanated a stream of energy into White Claw's body. He said coldly, "I have transferred a stream of energy into your body. If you ever dare to betray me, you will know the consequences." "No, I won't. I, White Claw, will never betray you, Mr. Chen," he said hurriedly. Fade nodded and said, "Get up! From now on, you will work for me. "Yes!" He nodded. Then, Fade stepped out of the basement with White Claw by his side. When the Jee family saw that White Claw was following Fade respectfully, they were all in shock. After all, White Claw was ferocious and terrifying a while ago. Moments later, he followed Fade like a dog. It was a vast difference, which made it unbelievable. Fade then asked White Claw to leave immediately so that he could continue with his work. He needed him to handle the Skull Mob matters for him. Shortly after that, Fade bid farewell to the Jee family and returned to the university. After the weekend, Fade returned to his normal teaching days. He conducted his classes as usual everyday and he guided Jasmine with cultivation during his spare time. The days were actually fulfilling. On the contrary, his junior, Joey, seemed to have disappeared for quite some time. It made Fade feel a little uneasy. Joey, who usually didn't take men seriously, actually accepted several invitations from Gentro. She went out with him a couple of times for dinner and movies. It made Fade extremely surprised. He thought that Joey had fallen in love with Gentro. Because of that, Fade met up specifically with Joey and reminded her to be careful. He reminded her that it was alright for them to go on a date, but they needed to be aware of the boundaries. She should take certain precautionary measures. At first, Joey didn't understand what Fade meant, but when she saw his weird gaze, she understood immediately. She glared at Fade and said, "Fade, what are you thinking? There's nothing between me and Gentro. Besides, I'm not in a relationship with him at all." "But you often go out with him. You both go for movies and dinners," Fade retorted. "I... I just want to... Joey pouted and said. She wanted to refute, but then she thought of something and then just kept quiet. She looked at Fade with anger and said, "Are you hoping that I'll marry soon so that I'll stop pestering you?" "Of course not. You are adorable so why would I let you leave me?" Fade rubbed her head affectionately and said. Joey held Fade's arm and said, "That's more like it. Trust me as the person I love will always be you." "You silly girl." Fade smiled and immediately said, "You will get married in future. When that happens, will no longer be your favorite." "No, it will still be you" Joey said firmly, "In fact, I'll marry you then." When she spoke, she squatted while staring at him with a pair of big teary eyes. She looked serious and yet adorable, which made Fade somewhat lose his thoughts. "Ahem!" After a moment, Fade came to his senses and said, "If that's the case, I'm afraid my old master is going to kill me." "If that happens, I'll protect you. Master won't dare to do that," the little girl replied with a smile. They debated for a while and then Joey left after waving goodbye. Fade walked to his dormitory with his hands clasped behind his back. When Fade arrived at the stairway of the apartment, a young teacher who lived in the same apartment block, greeted, "Mr. Chen, you are back." "Yes, Teacher Xu." Fade nodded with a smile whilst he greeted him. Teacher Xu then pointed upstairs and said, "Someone is looking for you. She is waiting for you outside your room." "Someone is looking for me? Who is it?" Fade was a little surprised. Teacher Xu rolled his eyes and looked a little strange. He said with a smile, "A woman, a very beautiful lady. "This..." There were many women he knew and they were all beautiful. For a moment, Fade really could not remember who would want to see him. Without responding further, he waved goodbye to Teacher Xu and immediately proceeded upstairs. Teacher Xu looked at Fade's back and couldn't help but sigh. He muttered, "He has great relationship with women. Apart from Joey, even the campus belle, Jasmine, is close to him. Now, there is another beautiful woman. I'm really envious of him."
Chapter 1329 Just as Teacher Xu was lamenting, Fade made his way upstairs. He could faintly see a graceful woman with long hair standing by the door along the walkway. Under the dim light at the walkway, the woman's silhouette was pronounced, which made her more attractive and glamorous. It astonished him. "Who is this?" Fade was confused while walking towards the door. As he strode forward, the lights were automatically turned on following his steps. The graceful woman heard the footsteps, turned around and looked towards him. When the woman turned around, the light was turned on. It looked like a spotlight on the stage which suddenly lit up, focusing on the lead character. Fade's gaze followed the light which shone on the woman. The woman had long, curly, burgundy hair, bright red lips like roses, delicate cheeks and dark eyebrows. She exuded a charm which was refreshing and vibrant. At first glance, Fade felt a warm aura from the woman which could make almost every man fall crazily for her charm. Even Fade was stunned at that moment, frozen on the spot. Under the light, the charming woman turned her head and saw him approaching. Her originally expressionless face showed a smile. In an instant, it was like countless roses blooming in the walkway. He was completely mesmerized by her charm. "Fade, you're back!" Her eyes bubbled with a smile as sashayed and strode towards him with her attractive figure. Fade finally came to his senses. Looking at the woman with a surprised look, he walked up to her and said, "Melanie!" "Why are you here?" Fade asked. However, the woman did not respond and only gave Fade a big hug. A soft and fragrant scent surrounded Fade. Before he realized, her wet and red lips left a clear print on his face. Fade didn't expect her enthusiasm at all. He froze on the spot and he was in a daze, " Melanie, you..." Melanie let go of Fade. She took a step back with a smile. She touched her lips gently, looked at him with a smile and said, "I haven't seen you for a few months. I didn't expect you to turn into a pure and innocent boy!" Her jokes along with her graceful figure made Fade feel warm, and it ignited a flame within him. He stared at Melanie and said, "I haven't seen you in a few months. You have become more beautiful and sexy." "Really?" Melanie laughed and then deliberately pulled her non-existent collar, revealing her fair skin, "There's something sexier. Do you want to have a look?" At the sight of the provoking action, Fade almost had a nosebleed. He made a gesture of raising his head to stop his nose bleeding and said to her, "Melanie, don't tempt me anymore. Otherwise, I really can't control myself and will do something really bad. Then, it will be you who will lose out." "Something really bad? What's the matter?" Melanie moved her eyes in a seductive way. She leaned forward slightly and took a step towards Fade. Seeing that, he found it hard to resist and thought, "It has only been a few months since we last met, but Melanie has become even more charming and attractive." Feeling the heat within his uncontrollable body, Fade hurriedly turned around and walked towards his room. He quickly changed the topic, "It's not convenient to talk out here. Please come in so we can chat!" Melanie licked her red lips and replied with a smile, "It's indeed inconvenient for us to be out here. We indeed need some private time together." After that, she leaned behind Fade, with waves of her warm scent wafting, making Fade feel like he was losing control of his body. Thus, he bent down slightly to hide his unnatural reaction, hurriedly opened the door and entered the room. Seeing that, Melanie smiled proudly and then followed Fade into the room. The room was not big. Fade poured a glass of water for Melanie and invited her to take a seat. Then, he sat on the bed, grabbed a pillow and placed it on his thighs. "Why are you looking for me?" While calming down the excitement in his heart, Fade started the conversation. Melanie couldn't help but roll her eyes at Fade. Then, she said with a resentful expression, "Aren't you ashamed to ask me that? You've been in Capital City for two months. It has been a long time and you didn't even call me. "If I had not seen the news of the Sincere Medicine Center on TV, didn't know that you had come to Capital City. Have you forgotten about me?" Melanie, who was a sexy lady, felt wronged like a little girl at that moment, which carried with her a different nature of sensuality and seductiveness. It made Fade feel excited again after he had just managed to control and calm himself. "Ahem!" Fade coughed and quickly explained, "I came to Capital City all of a sudden. I didn't plan for it. Besides, I have just arrived and there are a lot of things to settle, so..." While he was speaking, Fade found Melanie staring at him with her beautiful eyes, looking aggrieved. Fade was nervous. He immediately stood up and apologized, "It's my fault. I didn't inform you immediately. I deserve to be punished." Melanie, who looked rather aggrieved, couldn't help but laugh. She nodded and said, "That's more like it. A little sincerity with the apology. For the sake of your sincerity, forgive you." Fade immediately smiled and said, "Thank you." Melanie rolled her beautiful eyes and glared at Fade, then said, "Although I have forgiven you, you still need to show your sincerity." "How do you... How do you want me to show my sincerity?" Fade asked. Melanie touched her chin, thought for a moment and then said, "I want you to accompany me for one day." "One day. It's..." Fade was shocked and immediately thought of something else. He couldn't help but look at her graceful figure. Melanie noticed Fade's gaze and smiled. She said, "I said accompany me for one day and that's for dinner and a movie. We'll have fun for one day. Don't think of something else!" "L... I'm not thinking of something else! I just want to have dinner and watch a movie!" Fade hurriedly said, "What would you like for dinner? Which movie do you want to watch? I'll go and arrange for it." Melanie couldn't help but laugh when she saw Fade's flustered look. Then she got up, took his arm and said softly, "It doesn't matter what we will have for dinner or what we will watch. The important thing is to be with you and that's enough."
Chapter 1330 Such tender words were said by the seductive Melanie and it made Fade's heart shiver. He had a strange feeling while his whole body was a little limp and numb. "Alright, don't just freeze there. Just get changed and let's go!" Melanie gently pushed Fade away.. He nodded in agreement, took out his clothes from the wardrobe and prepared to get changed. When he was about to take off his clothes, he discovered that there was no other room in the apartment for him to get changed. It didn't matter when he was alone, but because Melanie was there, it seemed a little inappropriate. After a pause, Fade then grabbed his clothes and prepared to go to the bathroom. Melanie said out loud, "What are you doing?" Fade replied, "To get changed in the bathroom!" "Why the bathroom? Change here!" Melanie said in a natural tone, which was beyond Fade's expectation. Seeing that he was nervous, Melanie raised her eyebrows and smiled at him, "What's wrong? Are you afraid that I'll stare at you?" "No, I just..." Fade was speechless. She covered her mouth and laughed. Then she got up and went to the bathroom, "Okay, I'll stop teasing you. You get changed. I'll go to the bathroom." "Yes!" He nodded. Melanie waved and went to the bathroom. Before closing the door, she stuck her head at the door. She waved to Fade and said, "You can change. I won't peep. He had to face Melanie who was like a fairy with an extremely charming character. He felt that he was really overwhelmed. He was at a loss with her around. He was teased like an innocent little boy and was completely losing his control, feeling helpless. He completely lost his majestic and domineering personality when he was in front of others. Fade quickly changed his clothes and then Melanie walked out of the bathroom. Seeing Fade who had a refreshing change, Melanie's eyes lit and she said, "I haven't seen you for a few months and you have become much more handsome!" "You've also become more beautiful," Fade said with a smile. "You're so sweet." Melanie smiled. Then, she took Fade's arm and they went out together. The two left Capital University and arrived at the bustling commercial street in the city center, where they dined and shopped together, looking like a couple. After dinner, Fade said, "Which movie would you like? Let me get the tickets!" Melanie looked at the time and said, "It's getting late. Let's not catch a movie today." "But I promised you..." Fade said. Melanie winked at Fade and said with a smile, "Keep that promise for next time! This is my little scheme. Otherwise, I won't have any reason to go out with you next time." "You can come to me whenever you want. You don't need to have any reason." Fade said with a smile. Melanie smiled, then waved her hand and said, "Well, you've had enough time with me today. If you don't go back, your little girlfriend will be jealous." "I didn't. I... Fade wanted to explain. However, Melanie looked as if she didn't want to argue. She looked at Fade and said, "No need to explain. I've asked about the women around you. Joey and Jasmine are the school's beauty queens. They are both young and beautiful." After that, Melanie waved her hand and said, "Well, I won't tease you anymore. Let's go home. Fade nodded and said, "Where are you staying now? I'll send you back!" "The company is nearby. I have a residence there and it's not far away. You don't have to see me off, Melanie said. However, as soon as she finished, her cell phone rang. Melanie picked up the call. After listening for a while, her expression sank. She frowned and said in a low voice, "How can this be? Well, you take care of it first. I'll be right back." After that, Melanie hung up in a hurry and was about to leave. "Fade, I have something urgent to attend to. have to leave now." "What's the matter? Did something happen to the company? I'll go with you!" Fade quickly followed. Melanie wanted to reject him but after a pause, she nodded and said, "Okay, let's go together." It was not easy to take a cab in the commercial area and it was difficult to move fast during the peak period too even if they managed to get one. Therefore, Fade got a bicycle and rode along with Melanie to rush to the company. While they were on their way, Fade asked, "What happened to the company?" Melanie said with a serious face, "The shop assistant said there is a customer making trouble in the store. Furthermore, the customer seems to be a celebrity. I need to go back and deal with it." Fade frowned and then probed further, "Emerald Plum Jewels, how is it developing in Capital City?" A few months ago, Fade went to the Westamor District to help Melanie settle the marriage contract with the Yue family. It also allowed Melanie to break ties with the Yu family and let her manage Emerald Plum Jewels in Capital City alone. Fade remembered that the Yue Family and the Chung Family in Capital City had colluded to put pressure on the Yu Family, especially on Melanie. Although the Yue family matters had been taken care of and Fade had even taught Lewis a lesson. However, Fade was still worried that the Chung family would do harm to the company since Emerald Plum Jewels was in Capital City, in the Chung family's territory. Melanie said, "The Yue family has given me a lot of support and the company has developed fairly well. Later, the Chung family seemed to notice the actions on my side and they have gradually started to put pressure on Emerald Plum Jewels. "However, the Yue family and Yu family have always supported me. The focus of the Chung Family is not on me so it's not a big problem although sometimes, there may be some petty matters. Fade frowned and muttered, "I have warned the Chung family before. Are they still being so ungrateful?" Melanie immediately said, "Things changed suddenly a week ago. I don't know why the Chung family stopped the pressure on our company. Even Young Master Chung came to our store in person and explained that what happened before was a little misunderstanding. I hope that everyone can get along well with each other in near future." "Changed suddenly? It was Wilton who came in person." Fade was a little surprised. He didn't know what the Chung family was doing. Before Fade could figure it out, the two of them arrived at the entrance of the company. Emerald Plum Jewels was located at the busy intersection on the Second Ring Road in Capital City. It was a three-story building, filled with magnificent and elegant decorations. Jewelries, which were showcased in the transparent glass cabinets, glimmered with a fascinating light. When women passed by, their eyes glistened and their hearts were filled with expectations. However, when most of them saw the price tags, they could only shake their heads, sigh and then move on.
Chapter 1331 In that regard, Fade and Melanie became accustomed to it. After all, the main focus of Emerald Plum Jewels was the domestic mid-to-high-end market. Their market share was not sizable, but it had also captured a group of loyal customers with proper financial status. In particular, Melanie had created a collection of jewelries with special designs. They were sought after by many upper-class ladies and celebrities. There was an endless stream of people ordering the collection and the next order would only be available at least half a year later. However, the high-end Emerald Plum Jewels seemed a little noisy and messy at that moment. Through the glass cabinet, Fade saw a group of uniformed staff members who were quarreling with a woman who was dressed luxuriously. Next to the woman, there were two bodyguards in black who were shouting aggressively at the staff member. The bodyguard even slapped a young female staff member. She fell to the ground and her cheeks became red and swollen. Seeing that, Melanie immediately stood up straight. With her high heels, she rushed into the store and shouted coldly, "Stop!" Her shout quietened the chaotic scene and the people stared at her. The staff member immediately rushed forward and surrounded her. "Miss Yu, you're back!" "Miss Yu, we..." Melanie helped the young female staff member, who had been beaten, up, and she comforted her with a few words. Then, she looked at the well-dressed woman opposite her and narrowed her eyes. She said coldly, " need an explanation from you please." Miss Loren An, I'll Hearing the name of Loren An, Fade felt something odd. He frowned slightly and thought that the name was familiar. The well-dressed woman named Loren heard Melanie's words. She crossed her arms in front of her chest and snorted, "Give you an explanation? Melanie, I think your company should give me an explanation instead." Loren then pulled her collar and pointed at her neck, revealing a slight trace of redness. She said, "Your staff and company product has caused me injury. What do you think we should do?" "Er... Melanie saw that and her brows furrowed. The staff member hurriedly explained, "Miss Yu, we did not hurt her. She put on our latest Fish-dragon Dance collection. She wanted to just take it away and of course we stopped her. It was because of the struggle that caused the mark on her neck. Fade and Melanie looked at the necklace on Loren's neck at the same time. The staff member explained further about the entire incident in a low voice. It was a platinum necklace with a traditional design, and the theme was centered around the Fish- dragon lanterns of the ancient Lantern Festival. Melanie hired top local designers to design the collection specifically. It was the latest collection for that season and it had yet to be released officially on the market. However, there were some initial advertisements which had brought about the popularity. Many regular customers had already lined up to make an order. The necklace in the store was just a display and was not for sale. Loren went to the store and said that she wanted to try out the Fish-dragon Dance necklace. The staff member naturally wouldn't refuse the customer's request, so they just obliged. However, what they did not expect was that after Loren put on the necklace, she was very fond of it and did not even want to take it off. Naturally, the staff member disagreed and persuaded her to take it off. Loren immediately said that she was willing to buy it, while the staff member explained to her that the necklace was not for sale. Any ordinary person would just let it go but Loren was a weird person. She revealed that she was a celebrity. The reason why she was willing to wear the necklace was to show respect for Melanie's jewelry. Moreover, she also said that as long as Emerald Plum Jewels would give the necklace to her, she could be their free spokesperson without any fees and would even note them. That was a good way to put it. However, the so-called celebrity, Loren, was not popular at all. Her name was on the way down. Moreover, Emerald Plum Jewels already had its own spokesperson, so they didn't need to have any unpopular stars like her be their brand ambassador. The special display of Fish-dragon Dance was hand-made by the designer. It was a unique and fine piece of jewelry with a price of 20 million yuan. If it was converted into endorsement fees, Loren was worth far less than that price. For these reasons, it was naturally impossible for Emerald Plum Jewels to agree to her request, so they asked Loren to take off the necklace. She did not expect that Loren would go that far. First, she asked the company's top executives to talk to her. The company's deputy manager met her and declined her suggestion as a brand ambassador. Later, Loren unreasonably mentioned that the company looked down on her and wanted to complain about them. In the end, she even wanted to take the necklace and leave. They obviously did not allow that to happen so they went forward to stop her. As a result, they had a conflict, which led to Fade's and Melanie's presence. After learning about the matter, Melanie's expression turned cold. She looked at Loren and warned her in a cold voice, "Miss Loren, what you are doing is attempted theft or even robbery. Please return the necklace to us immediately, otherwise, I'll call the police." Loren, who was standing on the opposite side, suddenly burst into anger. She looked like a shrew, and she pointed at Melanie and said, "What did you say? I'm stealing and robbing? Do you know who I am? I am Loren and I am a big star. I wanted to steal your things? What a joke. There are many people and companies who want me to endorse their things!" Melanie said coldly, "Those people don't include us. Please return the necklace immediately. "You, you..." Loren glared at Melanie with anger, "You... Your company's product is of low quality. Your employees rudely hurt me and they did it on purpose. I want to expose you. I want to sue you. I want your company's reputation to be ruined." In the face of Loren's angry threat, Melanie's expression became even colder, "Miss Loren, you can sue me if you want. We will take this to the court to the end. However, please return the necklace to us immediately. If the necklace is damaged, I'm afraid that you can't afford to compensate for it." "You... You look down on me. You..." Loren's face was red in shame and she waved her hands and yelled, "Expose them. Expose them on the internet and say that Emerald Plum Jewels have bullied customers. Mention that their stuff is inferior and that they beat people. I want to expose you all."
Chapter 1332 Melanie felt that Loren was unreasonable. She frowned and took out her phone, "I'm going to call the police. You'd better realize the consequences!" After that, Melanie called the police. Loren's face sank and her expression turned ugly. She glanced at the bodyguards around her and said, "What are you waiting for? Come on, stop her!" The two burly bodyguards dressed in black stepped forward to snatch Melanie's phone. Loren shouted ecstatically behind them, "Stop her, hurry up!" Seeing that, Melanie's brows furrowed and she stepped back. Fade snorted and strode forward while he shouted coldly, "Stop!" The two burly bodyguards were stunned by Fade's shout. When Loren saw this, she hurriedly cried out, "Just do it. What are you waiting for? I paid you to do your job and not stand there like fools." When the bodyguards heard that, their faces changed. They raised their big fists and rushed towards Fade. Fade shook his head gently and moved his hands. His fists hit the two bodyguards, who were dashing toward him from the opposite end, at the same time. After being hit by Fade, the two sturdy men flew backward and fell hard onto the ground. They let out muffled groans and struggled to get up. When Loren saw that her two bodyguards were knocked down, she was surprised and dissatisfied, "What's wrong with you? You can't even defeat a brat. Are you guys joking? Stand up and get him!" The two burly bodyguards gritted their teeth and tried to get up. They struggled as they were in so much pain, but they grimaced and couldn't stand up at all. Loren was shocked to see that. At that moment, Fade, whose expression was cold, moved towards Loren and said in a cold voice, "Now, it's your turn." "Don't you dare! I... I'm Loren, a celebrity. If you do anything to me, you won't be able to take the responsibility if this becomes a big issue, Loren warned Fade while stepping backward. Fade disregarded what Loren said and still walked towards her. He then said coldly, "A celebrity? I would like to know how everyone would react if the news that you, a celebrity who stole and robbed, goes out." As he spoke, Fade was right in front of Loren. He raised his hand and was ready to make the next move. Loren was a little flustered at that moment. Her eyes glistened and her lips trembled. "I... I know a lot of big shots. If you dare touch me, you and your jewelry company will end for sure." "Really? Tell me who those big shots are! Let's see if I'm afraid of them!" Fade sneered. Loren said, 'I... I have a close relationship with Jonas, the Young Master Chung. Mr. Jee of Dante Entertainment is also my boss and a friend. And Manager Chen, Chief Huang and... Loren spoke about the big shots she knew, but at that moment, Fade was a little distracted when he heard what she said. That was because the name 'Jonas' which Loren mentioned made Fade finally remember why he felt a little familiar with the name 'Loren'. He remembered the incident when he first met Susie. At that time, she was travelling for her inspiration. When he arrived at Bay City, Fade was her tour guide and they traveled together to a few places. Among the locations where they had travelled to was a strange, small temple. They discovered that Susie's bracelet created a problem as it had a death aura that was harmful to her body. That bracelet was given to her by Susie's predecessor and also a friend, who urged her to wear it often. Jonas was fanatical pursuer of Susie. At that time, he kept his watch in Bay City Hotel where Susie stayed and tried to force himself on her. At the critical moment, Fade rescued her and Jonas was taught a hard lesson. It could be regarded that Loren and Jonas were both Susie's enemies. Fade narrowed his eyes slightly, looked at Loren and said, "So it's you!" Loren didn't understand what Fade meant. She paused for a moment, thinking that he was afraid after hearing her mentioning the big shots' names. Loren became proud, raised her head and then looked at Fade and Melanie, "Now that you know who I am, apologize to me at once. Otherwise, I..." Loren didn't manage to finish her sentence, there was a loud and hard slap in her face. Her cheeks were red and swollen. There was even blood oozing out of the corner of her mouth. Loren was stunned for a moment before she came to her senses. She glared at Fade and said hysterically, "You... You dared to hit me. I will sue you and I will kill you. I am a celebrity. I will... Before she could finish, Fade slapped Loren on the other side of her cheek. Her face became more swollen in an instant. The scorching pain in her face really made Loren scared. She touched her cheeks while retreating constantly, wanting to leave immediately. Her heart was full of resentment, "You wait and see. Emerald Plum Jewels, Melanie and you, watch carefully. I will ruin you all, I..." Just as Loren was ranting, Fade stepped forward again. He stretched out his right hand and said coldly to her, "Take off the necklace." Loren was reluctant but she didn't dare not to oblige looking at the situation. She could only take the Fish-dragon Dance necklace off her neck. Just as Loren was about to take off the necklace, a figure passed by outside the jewelry store. When Loren caught a sight of that figure, she became excited and shouted quickly, "Young Master Chung!" Hearing someone crying out to him, the passerby paused and looked inside the store. Fade also shifted his gaze and found that the Young Master Chung was not the same Young Master Chung, Wilton, he knew. This man was probably in his late twenties. Although he was somewhat similar to Wilton, the way he dressed was different from that of Wilton. "Is this guy also from the Chung family?" Just as Fade was thinking about him, Loren ran right in front of him. She hugged Young Master Chung lovingly while speaking to him coquettishly and leading him into the store. "Young Master Chung, you must help me!" Loren held the man's arm while her body was closely attached to him. She looked at Fade and Melanie with an expression filled with hatred and pride. Meanwhile, Melanie also recognized Young Master Chung. She went to Fade's side and whispered, "This is Terry, Wilton's cousin. Although he is also a member of the Chung family in the Capital City, his status in the family is still far behind that of Wilton's." Fade nodded and seemed to be in deep thoughts about something.
Chapter 1333 At that moment, Terry looked Melanie up and down with greed and excitement in his eyes. He said, "Miss Yu, Miss Loren is my friend. Is this how Emerald Plum Jewels treats their customers?" His words obviously carried a tone of interrogation and blame. Miss Loren was the one who took our necklace and refused to take it off. No matter what you say, she is unreasonable. If you don't believe it, let's call the police and have them settle the dispute." However, Melanie was relentless. She then said in a cold voice, " When the police were mentioned, Loren became a little flustered instantly. Terry snorted coldly and said to Melanie, "Miss Yu, that's funny. Miss Loren is a celebrity. It's lucky that she fancies your company's jewelry. It's great that she is willing to be your brand ambassador for free, but you insist that this incident is a theft and robbery. It's a great insult to Miss Loren!" "Lucky? Ambassador? Great?" Melanie sneered disdainfully, "Emerald Plum Jewels isn't in desperate need for an endorsement from such a celebrity!" Her words were direct and disdainful, clearly intended for Loren. Loren was fuming with anger. She held Terry's arms and kept shaking them. Terry's expression turned dark and ugly. He had a close relationship with Loren. They had had several intimacies a couple of nights before. It felt like Melanie was looking down on Loren which implied that she also looked down on his taste. On the other hand, Terry had been coveting Melanie's Emerald Plum Jewels for quite some time. Some time ago, when the Chung family was secretly oppressing Emerald Plum Jewels, Terry had met Melanie several times for negotiation. He hoped that she would eventually give in, or even perhaps have an intimate relationship with him in exchange. However, his little plots were all coldly rejected by Melanie. He still held grudges against her because of those rejections. The aggravated Terry initially prepared to oppress Melanie and her Emerald Plum Jewels, but to his surprise, his family decided that they would give up suppressing Emerald Plum Jewels and instead would get along with each other in peace. Terry, who was about to vent out his frustration, had to suppress his anger which was very painful for him, due to that decision. He was extremely depressed. In the recent few days, he actually went to Emerald Plum Jewels to find ways to deal with Melanie. He never found a chance until that day when he met Loren. Hence, he could take advantage of Loren's incident as a way for his revenge to ease the resentment in his heart. After listening to Melanie, Terry sneered and said, "Miss Yu, you're just doing business. It's a bit too much to say something like that!" "A bit too much? I don't think so," Melanie said coldly. Terry's face darkened and he said, "Isn't it just a necklace? Even if you don't want Miss Loren to endorse it, as a customer, you should still treat her with respect!" "Customer?" Melanie looked at Loren coldly and said, "People who really want to buy things are customers. The robbers are the ones who take things for free." "You... When Loren heard her remarks, she became angrier. She shook Terry's arm and said coquettishly, "Young Master Chung, look at her. What's wrong with her attitude? I... Terry looked at Melanie, then took out his wallet and said coldly, "It's just a necklace. It's no big deal. I'll buy it for Loren then." "You want to buy this necklace?" Melanie had a look of disbelief. Terry took out his credit card with a proud expression and said, "Miss Loren is my woman. Buying a necklace for her is not a big deal." "Really?" Melanie smiled. Then she waved her hand and gestured to a sales assistant to come over, then said, "Good, Mr. Chung. This Fish-dragon Dance necklace is worth 20 million yuan. Please come over here and pay!" Terry, who looked arrogant a moment ago, shuddered when he heard the price of 20 million. He was taking out his credit card halfway and immediately put it back. "What's wrong? Don't you want to buy it, Young Master Chung?" Melanie asked coldly. Terry's expression went dark as he gritted his teeth and said, "This necklace costs 20 million. Do you think I'm a fool?" Melanie sneered disdainfully and said, "You can afford it, can't you?" "I, I... Terry wished to take out his credit card and say that he could afford it. However, after hesitating for a while, he really couldn't say those words. After all, 20 million, even for him, was definitely a huge figure. Terry was at a rather low status among the Chung family's younger generation. He could not be compared to someone like Wilton, who was doted on in the family members. Moreover, even if he needed to use tens of millions at once, it would not be easy for him to do so. Therefore, it was impossible for Terry to spend 20 million to buy such a necklace. Furthermore, it was for Loren, a woman whom he was almost tired of flirting with. Thinking of that, Terry coughed and with an ugly face, he made an excuse for himself, "The necklace is just so-so. It's not worth it." He then put away his credit card and wallet. Loren, who was standing next to him, looked disappointed. Melanie sneered and said, "Since you don't want to buy it, Miss Loren, please return our necklace!" Loren was still unwilling to give up, and her eyes were constantly glancing at Terry. At that moment, Terry's expression changed. He seemed to have thought of something as he waved his hand and said, " Wait a moment!" "What else would you like to say, Young Master Chung? Do you want to buy the necklace again?" Melanie deliberately brought up the matter of buying the necklace, which made Terry's face darken. He immediately snorted, staring at Melanie and said coldly, "Miss Yu, you seem to have forgotten one thing. A year ago, Emerald Plum Jewels made an agreement with the Chung family. You are supposed to transfer more than half of the shares to us." "Now, on behalf of the Chung family, I'd like to ask for those shares." Melanie's face fell when he mentioned that. It was initially planned that the Yu family wanted her to marry a man from the Yue family so that they could achieve a better status. They signed an agreement with the Yue family. However, it was unexpected that the Yue family and the Chung family had cretly colluded with each other in order to take over the Yu family's assets. One of those assets was Emerald Plum Jewels. However, that marriage was settled by Fade when the Yue family also surrendered to him. Lewis was taught a lesson by Fade at that time, so there was no further meddling in the matter since then.
Chapter 1334 Some time ago, some people in the Chung family brought up the matter and used it to put pressure on Emerald Plum Jewels. However, after the Chung family showed a gesture of goodwill, no one mentioned it ever again. After all, the Chung family had chosen to make peace. If it was deliberately mentioned, it would only aggravate her further. It was completely unwise of him to do so. But at that moment, Terry didn't consider much. He didn't understand the reconciliation among the families. Melanie's: sneer and disdainful expression made Terry furious and without thinking further, he just brought up the matter. When it came to the shares issue, Melanie's face turned sullen and cold. Seeing her expression, Terry thought that he had managed to put pressure on her and he said proudly, "What's the matter? You refuse to pay your debt? The contract is valid in writing. Do you want me to take it out and read it out word by word?" Loren took sides with him and looked proud at that time. She said arrogantly as if she was the master, "Did you hear that? More than half of Emerald Plum Jewels shares belong to the Chung family. Your company belongs to Young Master Chung. Is there a problem that I'm wearing a necklace that belongs to him?" Melanie narrowed her eyes and ignored Loren's blabber. She looked at Terry and said, "Some time ago, the attitude of the Chung family was not a fraud?" "I don't know what attitude the other members of the Chung family have and I don't care what they said to you. However, I am going to take what belongs to the Chung family." With that said, Terry crossed his arms in front of his chest, looking rather pleased with himself. Melanie's eyebrows narrowed while her expression turned a little gloomy. Fade walked forward and put his arm around Melanie's shoulder. He gently patted her and said softly, "Melanie, don't worry about the Chung family. I'll take care of it!" "Yes!" Melanie nodded. Seeing that Melanie and Fade were so close to each other, Terry suddenly gnashed his teeth with hatred. His face was full of jealousy and resentment. Fade then looked at Terry and said, "You want to put pressure on Emerald Plum Jewels?" Terry raised his head and said, "I'm not putting pressure on the company. I'm just taking what the Chung family deserves." "You can't represent the Chung family!" Fade said coldly. Those words hit Terry hard again that he quivered with anger. He bellowed furiously, "I'm Terry, the young master of the Chung family. If I can't represent the Chung family, then what makes you think you can?" "Now, I demand Emerald Plum Jewels to hand over more than half of the shares immediately," Terry roared angrily after feeling insulted. Meanwhile, Loren looked encouraging and proud. Fade shook his head gently and did not say anything. He just made a phone call and said coldly, "I'm Fade. I'm in Emerald Plum Jewels. Someone in your Chung family is making trouble. Please come over! After conveying his message, Fade hung up directly. Terry, who was standing opposite him, was stunned when he saw that. He then pointed at Fade and sneered, "You put on an act in front of me and even contacted a member from my family to deal with me! I want to see who you called!" Less than ten minutes later, a screeching entrance of the jewelry store. car brake could be heard at the "You're just putting on an act. You're a brat. It's a joke that you can command a member of the Chung family" Amidst the ear piercing screech of the brake, Terry continued to mock and ridicule Fade. At that moment, Loren was staring at the car outside the store and seemed to discover something. She pulled Terry's shirt and reminded him in a low voice, "Young Master Chung, that seems to be the symbol of the Chung family." Terry then fixed his eyes on the car and found that it did have the symbol of his own family. He sounded surprised, "It's really a member of our family." However, he remained proud and said, "Even if the Chung family member is here, the person is not a big shot. I'll see who dares to do anything in my presence. Just as Terry ended his words, a young man got out of the car and rushed into the jewelry store. When the people saw the person's face, they were shocked. The person was none other than the real Young Master of the Chung family, Wilton. "Young Master Chung!" "Wilton is here!" While the surprised remarks continued, Wilton walked in quickly and looked around. When his eyes swept across Terry's face, he glared at him. He then walked towards Fade's direction quickly. "Wilton, why are you here?" Terry chuckled and wanted to say something to Wilton. However, Wilton ignored him. He quickly walked past him and went to Fade. He respectfully bowed and said, "Mr. Chen, I'm here." Fade nodded and said faintly, "It's great that you're here. Someone from your family is making trouble here. I will let you deal with it!' As he spoke, Fade shot a glance at Terry. Terry was feeling nervous as an ominous premonition surged in his heart. After listening to Fade, Wilton immediately nodded and said respectfully, "Yes, rest assured that I will handle it well." Wilton turned around, stared at Terry and snapped, "What's going on? Who asked you to make trouble in the store?" "This is a misunderstanding. I just... Terry laughed and tried to explain casually. However, Wilton was not courteous to him. He shouted, "I don't need an excuse and I don't care what your reason is. Now, apologize immediately to Mr. Chen and Miss Yu. Otherwise, don't bother coming back to the Chung family. Terry didn't expect that Wilton would be so harsh and unkind. He was a little angry and said, "What are you doing? It's just a small company. Why are you so afraid? Besides, more than half of the shares of Emerald Plum Jewels belong to the Chung family. Is there anything wrong with me asking for it now?" When it came to the shares issue, it irritated Wilton. He glared at Terry and shouted, "Shut up. Apologize immediately." "Are... Are you talking to your cousin using that tone?" Terry gritted his teeth as he took out his phone. "I'm going to inform someone about this. I refuse to believe that the family elders will do as you say" "Go ahead and make the call. Don't regret it." Wilton said coldly Terry gritted his teeth and made a phone call. He quickly told the person on the phone about what had happened. He really thought that the elders of the family would understand him, and even speak up for him to teach Wilton a lesson.
Chapter 1335 He did not expect that there was a shout from the other end of the call, "Terry, what are you doing? Do you know that you have caused trouble for the Chung family? "Uncle Lewis, I just want to have Chung family's interests in mind! Emerald Plum Jewels... Terry tried to explain further. However, before he could continue, Lewis shouted again, "Our family has decided that we have nothing to do with Emerald Plum Jewels. You are not allowed to make trouble again. Don't you understand that this is the family's decision?" "I only think that it's a shame to let it go just like that. That's why I... Terry continued explaining. However, Lewis was fuming and he screamed, "Don't be so full of yourself. You should follow the family's decisions. Also, remember that Emerald Plum Jewels is backed by Mr. Chen and he is not someone to be trifled with. If you offend him, apologize and beg for forgiveness immediately. If you don't have his forgiveness, renounce yourself from the Chung family immediately." After that, Lewis hung up. Terry, who was on the other end of the call, was stunned. His expression was filled with disbelief as he muttered, "How can it be? Uncle... At that moment, Wilton, who stood at the side, said coldly, "Now, you know the seriousness of the matter. Apologize to Mr. Chen and Miss Yu immediately, otherwise, you will know the consequences." Upon hearing that, Terry's expression changed. However, when he thought of Lewis' warning, he finally lowered his head and walked towards Fade. In a low voice, he said, "Mr. Chen, Miss Yu, I'm sorry. I was wrong." Fade snorted coldly and said, "Do you think just saying sorry is enough? Things are not that simple!" "You... Terry did not expect that he, as the Young Master Chung, had bowed and apologized personally, and yet Fade took it for granted. He was fuming and was about to lose his temper. However, at that moment, Wilton pulled Terry away and reminded him in a low voice, "Apologize again. Don't think about resisting. Otherwise, you will regret it." "L... Terry's expression changed and he immediately gritted his teeth. Once again, he bowed to Fade and apologized, "Mr. Chen, Miss Yu, I'm sorry. I was wrong. I sincerely apologize to the both of you. I'm willing to compensate as well." "Compensation!" Fade rolled his eyes and said coldly, "Just now, you supported Loren and wanted to take the Fish-dragon Dance necklace by force, didn't you? In that case, let's compensate according to the necklace!" "What? That's 20 million! ... Terry could not help but be petrified and he shouted out loud immediately. Wilton quickly stopped him and reminded him in a low voice, "Just agree with Mr. Chen. Hurry up." Terry was confused but he still nodded and agreed. Immediately, Wilton took out a bank card and paid 20 million yuan to Emerald Plum Jewels on the spot. Seeing that, Fade nodded, then waved his hand and said, "Okay, now get out of here!" Wilton grabbed Terry along, bowed and left in a hurry. Loren, who was shocked, also left quickly. Meanwhile in the store, Fade looked at Melanie with a smile and said, " Melanie, I've solved the matter pretty well, haven't I?" She smiled and said, "You've only been in Capital City for a few months, yet you're so powerful that even the Chung family has to respect you. I should just follow wherever you go. "I am the man behind you. This is what should do." Fade patted his chest and said. Melanie rolled her eyes heavenward and said, "Do you really want to be my man?" While speaking, Melanie licked her red lips. Her charming figure showed a seductive aura, which made Fade's throat suddenly go dry. "Ahem! It's getting late. I have to be at school early tomorrow." Fade was worried that if he continued, he would really do something reckless. He quickly looked for an excuse and was ready to run away. Melanie giggled, flipped her hair and saw Fade off. Meanwhile, Wilton and the others, who were about two blocks away from Emerald Plum Jewels, finally slowed down a little, yet they still looked very nervous. Terry frowned. He was still worried about what had just happened and could not help but ask, "Wilton, why did you stop me just now? I don't believe that the Chung family can't even deal with a woman and a jewelry store." Wilton gave Terry a hard look and said, "If it's just the jewelry store, our Chung family would have taken control over it long ago. The key is the person who is with Melanie." "That brat named Fade?" Terry curled his lips and looked disdainful, "What is a young lad from another city capable of? Why is the family so afraid of him?" "What's he capable of?" Wilton glared at Terry and said sternly, "Do you know who Fade is and what kind of person is he?" "A month ago, the Chiang family messed with him. As result, Chiang Medical Center closed down and Edmund, the National Chinese Medical Doctor was arrested. Because of that, Fade received a special contribution award and also commendations from Director Qi of the Drug Administration. Besides, he also has the support of many National Chinese Medical Doctors and leaders of the medical industry." Terry was shocked, but he still said discontentedly, "No matter how powerful he is in the medical field, he is just a doctor. Our family doesn't have to be so afraid of him!" "Just a doctor?" Wilton glared at Terry and continued, "Later, Szeto Academy had a conflict with Fade, He went to Szeto Academy alone, defeated and wounded Master Szeto's disciple, Hamlet, along with Marcello and Joanne. In the end, he even wounded Master Szeto." "Now, do you still think that he's just a doctor?" Wilton asked. Terry's expression became a little strange. His face was filled with astonishment, "Is that true? It can't be. Hamlet is a Black Level advanced stage martial artist. He's quite famous among the younger generation of martial artists. "As for Master Szeto, he's even more terrifying. He's a middle stage Earth Level martial artist. How could he be injured by Fade? This is impossible!" Terry found it hard to believe. Wilton snorted and said, "As impossible as it may sound, I've witnessed it with my own eyes." "How could this be? Terry was truly terrified. Fade was able to defeat Kaeran, which meant that he was at least a middle stage Earth Level martial artist. Even the Chung family would not dare to mess with an expert of that level. They would certainly not go against such a master for the sake of an insignificant junior in their family.
