A Mortal’s Medicinal Elixirs

Chapter 71 Death Trap

Tia was so anxious and panicky that she blurted, “I don’t know if my dad is safe.”

William said. “Ask him to send his location immediately. Jason, step on the gas!”

She glanced at the location sent by Turner and noticed that there were at least ten kilometers between them. So, Jason stepped on the gas pedal, and the car speed suddenly soared to over a hundred.

William thought about their situation and decided to make some arrangements. “Call Jade King. The escort team belongs to him, so he will be taking responsibility for this.”

Tia nodded and dialed Jade King’s phone number, but no one answered the call. The other party’s line was always busy.

“No one is answering. She frowned as the worry in her heart grew.

William raised an eyebrow at that. “Tia, could it be that Jade King wants to take our cargo that is worth over 300 million as his own?”

“Impossible. Tia shook her head and continued, “If he does that, wouldn’t it ruin his reputation?”

He looked at her. “But what if we died due to unfortunate accidents?”

Tia was stunned. “Accidents?”

William sighed and replied, “I hope that it’s just my paranoia talking. Call Uncle Lloyd again.”

Once the phone call went through, he demanded, “Uncle, you need to find a place to hide. Don’t contact anyone or call the police before we arrive.”

He knew that with the Jade King’s influence, it would be far from a surprise that the local law enforcement and criminal investigation teams were under his thumb. So, reporting this to the police would be meaningless and could reveal their location to the enemy instead.

Meanwhile, Tristan was meeting with a young man in his study. The man was in his late twenties, dressed. in a suit, and had neatly combed hair.

The man smiled and asked, “Master Tristan, was it a call from Tia?”

Tristan nodded and replied, “They split up, so I had them release Turner intentionally. When these people. arrive, we will take care of them in one fell swoop.”

He took a puff of his cigar and drawled, “The mountain road they are currently on is perilous. If things go according to plan, they’ll plummet to their deaths into a deep river. Not even their corpse would be able to be retrieved once they perish.”

The young man laughed and replied, “Thank you for your efforts, Master Tristan. As agreed, the goods that are worth more than 300 million will all belong to you. And the Lloyds will release a statement stating that Turner and his companions have passed away in a car accident, which has nothing to do with you.”

Tristan looked at the young man and said, “Thomas, your methods are truly admirable. You can even eliminate your own ally to achieve your goals. How ruthless and decisive!”
