The Legendary Man

Chapter 710

Chapter 710

“Got it!”

Karl's trembling roar bombarded Jonathan's ears through the earphones, almost deafening him.

“I'm thinking of rushing over there. Track down my location and follow me.”

Jonathan then tapped on his watch a few times to set his watch as a beacon before turning to dart in the direction of the black smoke.

Meanwhile, Karl, Sirius, and Xavion dashed toward the direction of the mountain from three different spots after pinpointing where Jonathan was.

Kathleen was sprinting full-speed ahead with Layla and Killian in her arms.

Even though she did not sense the Wolver Army coming after her, she dared not linger in a spot for more than a minute.

She wasn't aware of the decimation of the Wolver Army. All she knew was that she would have to abandon the boy and his mother the next time she encountered Charleigh.

Currently, the only thing she could do was continuously channel the blood circulation in Layla and Killian with her spiritual energy to make sure that they stay alive.

It had been over half an hour since Kathleen started running, and by then, she was starting to feel her stamina ebbing away.

She wanted to consume another Spirit Rejuvenating Pill, but she found herself reluctant to use another pill.

When Kathleen saw the hill in front of her, she leaped into the air and landed on the top.

Right as her foot touched the ground, she warily froze on the spot.

With a gentle wave of her hand, she placed Layla and Killian down on the snowy ground beside her using her spiritual energy.

At the same time, she swallowed a Spirit Rejuvenating Pill without hesitation.

When she waved her fan, orbs of light that resembled stars in a night sky started floating around her.

As if imbued with life, the two birds on the surface of the fan began grooming their feathers.

What put Kathleen on guard was the sight of the person standing opposite her—Jonathan.

When Jonathan saw the rise and fall of Kathleen's chest—an indicator of her weariness—he smiled.

“You must be Kathleen Henderson.”

“Oh? Is this not the famed Asura?” Kathleen covered half of her face with her fan as she chuckled. “Why aren't you sitting on your paper throne in Chanaea instead? Did you come all the way here to see the snow? It must be fate for us to meet here, hm?”

Kathleen had long given her mink coat to Layla, who was just a mortal and would not be able to withstand the cold. Hence, she was only wearing a form-fitting gown at the moment.

Her hips swayed as she spoke. Plenty of lascivious young men would have been completely mesmerized by her charm.

However, Jonathan was not at all fazed by her voluptuousness. Instead, the look in his eyes was calm and clear.

“Karl, I found Kathleen. Layla and Killian are here too, so come over to me.”

“Mr. Goldstein, wait... wait for me...”

Previously, they only found out that someone had set fire to the mountain.

So, now that Killian was confirmed to be found, Karl was understandably excited.

Meanwhile, when Kathleen heard Jonathan's words, she began chuckling.

“So Karl's here at Remdik too. He doesn't have much trust in our family, huh? But that's good. I won't need to go to the trouble of bringing this boy back to Chanaea. As long as I hand him over to Karl, my job here is done.”

Even though Kathleen made it sound as if she was relieved of a burden, she did not decrease the amount of spiritual energy she was channeling.

Furthermore, she was shielding Killian the entire time, evidently still wary of Jonathan.

“How's the boy?” Jonathan asked as he stepped forward.

However, Kathleen took a step back, her shoe stepping on the rock beside Killian's neck.

Crack!

The rock shattered into smithereens in a split second, and Jonathan hastily retreated in shock.

“Do you not trust me?” he asked with a frown.

“How can we have trust in you, Jonathan Goldstein? Should I believe that you contacted Karl just because you said you did? What if you're just trying to trick me into handing over the boy?” Kathleen said, her lips curling. “Jonathan, we're both God Realm cultivators, so I'm sure you're familiar with how cultivators of our level work. You should learn to control yourself for the sake of the boy.”

As soon as Kathleen said that, Jonathan turned to look behind his shoulder where two waves of spiritual energy were swiftly approaching from.

He drew his brows together.

Why are there two? I thought Karl, Sirius, and Xavion were together.

The two figures soon streaked past an old tree dozens of meters away and landed right beside Jonathan, flanking him. As it turned out, it was not Karl and company.

Instead, it was a young man wearing a head scarf and traditional garb and an old man with a billhook.

“Stellario Mallory. Winston Leeson,” Jonathan muttered as he stared at the three people surrounding him.

In contrast, Kathleen let out a sigh of relief at the sight of the other two men.

She had not been running in a random direction. Instead, she had been running back the route she came from, following the marks she had left beforehand.

That way, Stellario and Winston would be able to follow the markings and find her. That would increase the chances of them meeting up, and she would be more confident in facing off against Charleigh if the latter were to really catch up with her.

Nevertheless, instead of Charleigh, Jonathan showed up.
