"What is the aning of this? Hah, you're still pretending to be oblivious, even now? Are you taking us for fools, for idiots? Forget it. I can't be bothered to waste any more words on you! For what happened, the Brad Family will pay the price in blood!"
The 'Mr. Kaide' Old Brad had ntioned was a notorious and terrifying ss Ultimate Powerhouse from a top-tier faction within the European Dark World. Upon hearing Old Brad, he snorted, his words filled with a terrifying, undisguised chill and murderous intent. "A blood price!?"
At this, the expressions of Old Brad, Duke Ovilia, and the others changed drastically, their faces and eyes filling with intense confusion, fear, and unease. Duke Ovilia's voice trembled as he asked, "Mr.—Mr. Kaide, what… what do you an by that? We truly don't understand."
"You don't understand? You think you can dismiss us all just by saying you don't understand?" another man stepped forward, his face cold. "Honestly, the Brad Family has so real nerve, daring to set such a trap for all of us. If we hadn't been lucky enough to et Mr. Chen, we might have really fallen for your sche! But now… heh, we will settle this account with the Brad Family, clearly and thoroughly!"
"A… a trap? What trap?" Old Brad, Duke Ovilia, and the others were completely stunned.
A trap? Why can't we understand what they're talking about?
Seeing this, Chen Fei's gaze swept over their faces for a long mont before finally settling on Old Brad. He sighed softly and asked, "Old Brad, do you really not know about this?"
"Mr. Chen, did sothing happen inside the seal? This trap you speak of… I, I truly know nothing about it," Old Brad replied, his voice laced with anxiety.
Chen Fei's expression didn't change much. After a mont, he slowly shook his head and looked toward a dark corner. "I rember you. Your na is Beirut, isn't it? Old Brad might not know about this, but with your status and power, it's impossible that you don't. Aren't you going to co out and give us an explanation? Or do you really think I wouldn't notice your little tricks?" By the end, his tone had grown cold.
The mont Chen Fei, Young Master Chen, finished speaking, a massive boulder near a stone wall not far away suddenly exploded.
BOOM!
RUMBLE!
WHOOSH!
In that instant, a fierce gale raged as debris flew everywhere. A short, disheveled figure then stumbled out from the shattered stone. With great difficulty, he finally burst free and appeared in everyone's sight.
The short figure landed wretchedly on the ground not far from the crowd. He was covered in blood, gasping for breath, his face trembling. As he looked at Chen Fei, his eyes were filled with fear and disbelief. This man was none other than Beirut, the ss Ultimate Powerhouse of the Brad Family whom everyone had seen before.
But why hadn't he gone inside with the others? Why was he left out here?
All at once, everyone's gaze fell upon the blood-soaked Beirut. Then, a voice filled with horror and anger echoed through the area.
"Be—Lord Beirut, what… what on earth is going on? You must know, right?"
"Beirut, so you didn't go inside? Heh…"
...
Seeing an ss Ultimate Powerhouse like Beirut defeated by Chen Fei in an instant, all the Brad Family elders paled. They were utterly terrified, their foreheads and backs drenched in cold sweat. That was Lord Beirut! Was he really defeated so easily?
But then, pushing aside the tremors in their hearts, they began to shout in panic. They desperately needed to know what on earth was going on.
Kaide, Mardo, and the others, however, had their faces turn to ice. A palpable chill and killing intent surfaced, erupting from them without restraint and aid directly at the pale-faced Beirut. His re act of hiding was enough to confirm their suspicions: Beirut knew about Schumacher's plan. And the facts clearly pointed to that conclusion.
"You… you actually made it out alive?" Beirut finally stamred, recovering slightly from his shock. His expression was tremulous and his eyes were bloodshot as his gaze swept guiltily over Chen Fei, Mardo, and Kaide.
Clearly, he had never expected Chen Fei and the others to erge alive. Otherwise, he wouldn't have chosen to hide. Unfortunately for him, his ager trick was still spotted by Chen Fei's sharp, fiery eyes.
"Of course we did," Chen Fei said, a cold smile touching his lips as his pitch-black, crystal-clear eyes turned frosty. "Although, you probably weren't hoping to see us co out alive. Sorry to disappoint you this ti."
Beirut's words were a clear admission that he knew everything.
If that's the case, then there's no need for any more pointless talk, is there?
His gaze then shifted to Mardo and the others as he said slowly in a cold voice, "You wanted revenge, didn't you? Good. You can start with him."
His words instantly threw the crowd into an uproar, and the expressions of everyone present changed drastically.
WHOOSH!
Beirut, covered in blood, turned to flee in utter panic, transforming into a lightning-fast streak of light.
"Running?" The powerful esper nad Kaide gave a grim, cold laugh. "Beirut, trying to run with so many of us here? You have so nerve."
A thunderbolt shot from his palm, crackling with terrifying electricity. It slamd into the only exit, causing the passage to collapse! This instantly made Beirut's face contort in panic. However, the panic on his face quickly morphed into a crimson rage. His gaze fixed fiercely on Kaide and the others as he bellowed, "Don't push too far! I, Beirut, am not a pushover you can just crush!"
At the sa ti, a staggering aura erupted from his body.
"Wh-what is this… You actually broke through to the sss Level?"
Feeling the aura gushing from Beirut, everyone's expression changed. Kaide's eyes contracted, his expression turning grim as he roared in frustration and disbelief.
He never expected Beirut to have already broken through to the sss Level. Damn it, when did this happen?
