The Invincible Mercenary King (Haylan Jaber)

Chapter 4

Haylan’s voice rang in Harper’s ears like a clap of thunder.

It sent shivers down Harper’s spine, and he almost dropped to his knees. His head kept buzzing. He gaped at Haylan with astonishment in his eyes.

“This guy has a booming voice!” he thought.

Charlie and Felicia stared after Haylan, a strange feeling welling inside them.

“Is he trying to protect us?” they wondered.

At this moment, Sam walked to Harper and pointed at Haylan with his menacing eyes fixed on him. “Harper, that guy beat me. You must make him pay!”

Harper gave Haylan a surly look and then turned around, slapping Sam on the face.

“You useless trash! You can’t even beat someone like him?

“Get out of my sight!”

Being hit and yelled at, Sam didn’t say anything and quietly moved to the side.

Harper lit a cigar before his cold eyes swung back to Haylan. “Man, you chose to stand against me the moment you beat Sam.

“If you get down on your knees and apologize, I can spare your life.”

Harper spoke with smoke from his nose and arrogance written all over his face.

“Didn’t you hear me?” Haylan asked with a gloomy face.

“That’s my line,” Harper replied, his eyes colder.

In the Lightdom City, wherever he went, people groveled with their tails between their legs.

No one dared to talk to him as Haylan did.

“Get out of here, now!” Haylan snarled.

“Haylan…”

Charlie and Felicia were startled by the homicidal look on Haylan’s face.

“Is this Haylan’s way of doing things?

“Provoking Harper like this is adding fuel to the fire, and the consequence is disastrous,” Charlie thought anxiously.

“Shut up, you fool!” Charlie hissed and stomped his feet. His forehead was wet with sweat, and he had no idea what he could do.

There were too many people around them. Storming out was not feasible.

Harper’s eyes glinted with malice.
