The Legendary Man

Chapter 935 Alive

Sirius' expression stiffened in response to hearing that. “Are you threatening me, Zachary?”

Out of nowhere, a gust of wind passed by No. 8 Villa before a large amount of spiritual energy exploded.

In the distance, Lauryn and Zidane dashed toward the villa.

Suddenly, two scalpels flew toward their throats from the direction of No. 9 Villa.

Multiple cultivators in black also rushed toward No. 8 Villa from No. 1 Villa.

Those men from Dark Special Forces were assigned by Jonathan to protect Josephine's family, and they had shown up because they detected something was wrong at No. 8 Villa.

Outside of the villa, Jason and three Grandmaster Realm cultivators from Asura's Office had surrounded Lauryn as well as Zidane.

Without warning, Zachary's exclamation was heard from within No. 8 Villa. “Do not attack anyone!”

The two scalpels in front of Jason reflected cold light as he spoke. “Why are you inside there, Zach? Do you need help?”

“No!” Zachary's voice traveled out of the building again. “Mr. Sirius and I are discussing a matter. Regardless of the results, none of you are allowed to attack! This is a military order!”

Jason glanced at Zidane and Lauryn before resummoning the scalpels back in his hand. “You should've said so earlier. I was in the middle of my experiment.”

As he left, the three cultivators in black retreated carefully.

Sirius grinned when he sensed the spiritual energy from outside disappearing. “The members of Asura's Office sure are obedient, seeing that they left when you asked them to. Did none of them detect my murderous intent?”

At that moment, Zachary was trembling before Sirius.

Even though it had only been around a minute since Sirius unleashed his force field, Zachary felt as though several centuries had passed.

Beads of sweat dripped from the tip of his nose as he gritted his teeth and lifted his neck. “You're jesting, Mr. Sirius. Neither Jason nor the other cultivators belong to Guardian Army. They left on my order because they trusted me. Even if you kill me now, they won't do anything. However, I can guarantee you that once you leave, Asura's Office will avenge me.”

Sirius watched Zachary endure his spiritual pressure for a few more moments before waving his hand, dispelling the pressure.

Meanwhile, Zachary stumbled backward a few steps before stabilizing himself due to overexertion.

“Asura's Office sure is interesting.” Sirius grinned. “Tell me, what obstacle did Jonathan encounter? He's essential to our plan. If I can help him out, I will.”

Panting, Zachary requested, “Currently, Mr. Goldstein is in western Remdik, chased by every soldier in the military region there. I need the Blackwood family to send someone to rescue him!” I mustn't be careless, as the Blackwood family is currently Jonathan's last hope.

The mention of Remdik spurred Sirius to furrow his eyebrows.

As a member of a respectable family, he learned many things since he was a little boy, including the situation of all the important countries in Aploth and Epea.

While he hadn't directly interacted with the military region in western Remdik before, he understood what Zachary meant.

“So, Remdik is mobilizing its total military strength to hunt down Jonathan.” Sirius' eyes glinted. “I'm curious. What exactly did Jonathan do to incur Remdik's wrath, so much so that the entire country is trying to stop him?”

Zachary stared at Sirius for dozens of seconds before saying, “He obtained a method to turn ordinary folks into cultivators and most Superior Realm cultivators into Grandmaster Realm cultivators!”

Promptly, Sirius stood as overwhelming spiritual pressure manifested around him, destroying the nearby furniture. “Do you speak the truth?”

“I am,” replied Zachary without hesitation.

Immediately, Sirius shouted, “Lauryn! Contact the family, now!”

Zachary knew he had succeeded upon seeing Sirius' reaction. As much as I'm elated by my success, I've also revealed Asura's Office's greatest secret. I had no choice but to use it as bait if I wanted the Blackwood family to help us fight against Remdik. Thankfully, I didn't have to reveal everything. If the Blackwood family learns Charleigh is the source of the method, they may abandon their search for Jonathan and opt to locate Charleigh instead. Right now, regardless of if the Blackwood family genuinely wants to save Jonathan or if they're only doing it for the method, they'll have to rescue Jonathan first.

Hastily, Sirius reported the matter to Graeme.
