Chapter 1422: Chapter 1422: If You’re Done Eating, Let’s Hit the Road
Emmanuel is not Clarence’s son, but his nephew, the son of his elder brother.
Moreover, the position of Wolf King should have belonged to Emmanuel’s father, except that Emmanuel’s father was killed during a war with the Vatican and the vampire clan.
That’s why the title of Wolf King and the position of Clan Leader fell on Clarence.
Clarence has always been wary of this nephew in his heart.
It must be known that when his father died, he was already eight or nine years old, and he could rember things.
Although it wasn’t Clarence who killed Emmanuel’s father, Clarence did take the position that originally belonged to him, this point is undeniable.
Moreover, as Emmanuel grows older, he will inevitably develop a desire for power.
So for all these reasons, Clarence has no choice but to be wary of Emmanuel.
“Uncle, I’ve prepared a banquet, please co in!”
Clarence nodded: “I see that the defense of your place is quite average, I’ll send so people over tomorrow!”
“Thank you, Uncle, but it’s not necessary. We are in need of people in the wolf clan right now, it’s better for them to work for you, and I’m only staying here for a few days.” Emmanuel tactfully declined: “Besides, I have already tracked down the Marshal’s whereabouts, by then I’m sure you will be able to eliminate him, and restore our wolf clan’s honor!”
“I’ll still send a few people to you. My brother left too soon, and with only you as the sole seedling, if anything were to happen to you, how could I face my brother after a hundred years!” Clarence said firmly.
Although Clarence is wary of Emmanuel, he is concerned enough about him.
Seeing Clarence say this, Emmanuel smiled and said nothing more.
The group walked directly into the villa, and after entering, they headed to the dining room inside the villa.
After entering the dining room, Emmanuel let Clarence sit at the head of the table, while he sat close to Clarence.
Once Emmanuel and the others sat down, the chef imdiately began to serve the dishes!
Since the food had been prepared in advance, it was quickly served.
Next mont, Clarence slowly fixed his gaze on Emmanuel: “How did you find out the Marshal’s whereabouts?”
Hearing Clarence’s words, Emmanuel chuckled: “Uncle, have you forgotten who the Marshal most wants to et now?”
Clarence’s eyes instantly sparkled: “You an the Blood Phoenix?”
“That’s right!” Emmanuel nodded: “The Marshal has already issued a bounty in the underworld, anyone who can provide information about the Blood Phoenix will be richly rewarded!”
“And I used clues about the Blood Phoenix to contact him!”
“Do you really know where the Blood Phoenix is?”
“How could I possibly know!” Emmanuel laughed: “Haven’t they in Huaxia said, all’s fair in war?”
“Why didn’t I think of that!”
Clarence imdiately understood, Emmanuel must have used the Blood Phoenix as an excuse to locate Ye Xunhuan.
Although Ye Xunhuan had killed mbers of the wolf clan and was an enemy to the clan, he didn’t know who the wolf clan was, and Emmanuel’s ability to keep Ye Xunhuan from suspecting his identity is not surprising.
“This is just a trick of the trade, Uncle, you’re a gentleman, how could you have thought of such a thod!” Emmanuel very subtly praised Clarence!
As the saying goes, no flattery is too much.
Although Emmanuel’s flattery was very subtle, Clarence could still hear it, making Clarence’s face full of smiles: “No matter what the thod, as long as it is useful, it is a good thod!”
As he said this, Clarence eagerly asked, “Where is the Marshal now?”
“He is very cautious, I don’t know where he is, but I have set an appointnt with him. When the ti cos, Uncle, you can ambush the agreed place, and as soon as he appears, strike him down with lightning speed, how about that?”
“It is a good plan, but will he co?”
“He will!” Emmanuel confidently said: “I told him in our conversation clearly that if he doesn’t co, I won’t tell him the Blood Phoenix’s whereabouts, and I also have to set so conditions with him!”
Clarence couldn’t help but look at Emmanuel with a new appreciation.
Although the heavy reward promised by Ye Xunhuan is tempting, it must be known that human nature is inherently greedy.
Everyone wants more.
Now that Emmanuel has told Ye Xunhuan this, then there’s a high chance that Ye Xunhuan will make a personal appearance.
“Then I will lay the nets, and as soon as he appears, strike him down imdiately!” Clarence said heavily: “If it succeeds, all the credit goes to you!”
“Helping my uncle and solving your problems is my duty!” Emmanuel said very humbly.
Perhaps because Emmanuel could lead him to Ye Xunhuan, Clarence’s inner gloom was completely swept away!
For a mont, he indulged without hesitation, eating and drinking with Emmanuel there.
Clarence could never have dread that Emmanuel was actually conspiring with Ye Xunhuan to kill him, and that Ye Xunhuan was already here.
Or rather, Ye Xunhuan was already inside the villa!
But nobody noticed him, and none of the people outside had the slightest inkling of when Ye Xunhuan ca in, or they simply didn’t know when he had co in.
Just when Clarence and Emmanuel were happily drinking, an untily voice suddenly rang out!
“Have you eaten enough? If so, it’s ti to hit the road.”
Upon hearing this abrupt voice, Clarence’s face suddenly fell, and all his muscles tensed up as he turned towards the source of the voice.
And at this mont, Emmanuel slowly stepped aside.
The next mont, Clarence saw a man with a tall stature, distinct features, and sharp eyes standing not far away, looking at him with a faint smile!
His deanor was like a cruel beast looking at its prey, his face full of a mocking expression.
When Clarence saw clearly the man’s appearance, his face darkened: “Marshal…”
This man was none other than Ye Xunhuan!
“Wolf King, have you finished eating?” Ye Xunhuan asked with a full mocking expression: “If you have finished, then it’s ti to hit the road!”
Clarence didn’t speak, but slowly turned his gaze to Emmanuel, who had already stepped aside!
He wasn’t a fool; at that mont, he understood everything!
“Emmanuel…”
“Uncle, you’ve held this position for decades, you’re old now, it’s ti for soone else to take that place!” Emmanuel said softly.
