Chapter 269: Heavily Injuring Howard
On the other side, after Clayton walked out and saw that person from the government, his expression could not help but become solemn.
However, before he could speak, the person from the government standing opposite him directly spoke to him in a cold voice, “Clayton, are you not clear about your position? I came here to look for Andrew. What has it got to do with you? I advise you to quickly call him out, or else don’t blame me for turning hostile.”
Clayton’s face could not help but turn ugly.
The words of the government man left him speechless, not knowing what to say at all.
Moreover, what puzzled him the most was that he more or less had some dealings with the government, but he had never met this person in front of him.
Therefore, he did not know whether he should be angry or not. However, just as he was still standing there in a daze, the government man spoke again.
“Didn’t you hear what I said just now? Hurry up and find Andrew. Don’t force me to deliver the goods for you here, or else…”
This time, as he spoke, he shifted his gaze to the few warriors standing behind him.
Those few warriors took a step forward at the same time, and their cultivations erupted.
When he saw the cultivations of those few warriors, he could not help but be stunned.
He had never thought that these people’s cultivations would be so high.
Moreover, there were a few warriors among them. Judging from the aura they erupted with, they were actually on par with Clayton.
At this moment, he did not know what to do. He was a dignified director of the Martial Arts Bureau, yet he was actually frightened by these people from the government. However, if he were to make a move, he might not be their match.
But if he did not make a move, they would definitely behave even more atrociously. After thinking for a moment, he gritted his teeth and unleashed all of his cultivation.
Immediately after, a wave of air surged out from his body. He stared coldly at the people from the government in front of him and said, “With just you guys, you still want to enter my Martial Arts Bureau? Stop dreaming. If you guys really have the ability to defeat me, come one by one.”
After hearing these words, the few martial artists could not help but be stunned. However, they immediately laughed out loud.
One of them, who had a similar cultivation level as Clayton, had a gloomy expression on his face as he said coldly, “You really think of yourself as a character. You think you can stop us? I can squash you to death by myself. It’s as simple as crushing an ant. If you lose it, you’d better hurry up and hand over that Andrew. Otherwise, don’t blame me for not being polite.”
The man took out a long sword, holding it tightly in his hand. Clayton didn’t want to be outdone either. He instantly took out into his own weapon.
In a flash, the two of them started fighting each other. The other warriors with lower cultivations tactfully retreated to the side after seeing this scene. After all, this kind of battle was not something they could partic.i.p.ate in.
After the two of them had fought for more than ten rounds in the air, they finally landed on the ground. At this moment, the corner of the warrior’s mouth still had a trace of a cold smile.
Standing in front of him, Clayton’s expression became particularly unsightly. His back broke out in cold sweat.
He lowered his head and looked at his trembling hands. With a solemn expression, he raised his head and once again engaged in a fierce battle with the warrior.
However, this time, when Clayton was charging towards him, the warrior did not move at all. Instead, he just smiled coldly.
Then, he used his cultivation to support the longsword in his hand.
In an instant, before Clayton could reach the warrior, he had already disappeared.
When he reappeared, Clayton instantly felt a chill on his back. Before he could turn around, the warrior swung his sharp sword and slashed at him.
The warrior left a deep wound on his body.
After being hit by the warrior, Clayton hurriedly ran forward. He suddenly felt a sweetness in his mouth and spat out a mouthful of blood. Even his legs couldn’t stand straight, swaying left and right.
When the warrior saw his serious injury, a cold smile hung on the corner of his mouth as he teased him.
“With your current appearance, you still want to be the director of the Martial Arts Bureau? Stop dreaming. I advise you to hurry up and call Andrew out. Otherwise, don’t blame me for killing you.”
Then, he added his cultivation to the longsword in his hand and slowly walked towards Clayton.
At this moment, Clayton was still struggling on the ground. When he saw that the guy was walking towards him, he couldn’t help but take two steps back. A cold voice suddenly came from behind the warrior.
“Who gave you such authority? How dare you hurt someone outside of the Martial Arts Bureau? If you want to die, I will satisfy you right now.”
The warrior had a cold expression as he walked towards Clayton. However, when he heard the voice behind him, he was stunned. He immediately turned around.
The moment he turned around, he saw Andrew standing at the entrance of the Martial Arts Bureau.
Before he could speak, the government man spoke to Andrew in a cold voice.
“If I’m not mistaken, you should be the Andrew that they spoke of, right? Since you’ve come out, let’s have a good talk.”
Andrew’s lips curled up slightly, but he did not pay attention to him. Instead, he directly walked towards the warrior.
“You’re the one who injured him?”
He asked in a cold voice. The warrior took a couple of steps back.
After all, he had heard of Andrew’s strength. He wasn’t on the same level as the one he had just fought with, Clayton. It would be a matter of minutes for him to be killed.
He could not help but feel a little afraid. Seeing the warrior remain quiet for a long time, Andrew’s voice sounded again.
“I’ll give you three seconds. Did you fight him?”
In fact, Andrew knew in his heart that he was just finding an excuse to get rid of this warrior.
After all, he had a certain relationship with the government. The warrior still did not speak.
Andrew did not want to speak any more nonsense.
