Chapter 1605: Goode’s Death
“How dare you threaten me? Let’s see who will be the first to die!” Goode’s eyes were full of hope and excitement. He never thought that things would end up as such right now! However, the ending was still greatly satisfactory.
In the beginning, he had come to his grandfather’s Lancer Family high-spiritedly after being humiliated by the b.u.t.terfly Family. He hoped that his grandfather could help avenge him. His grandfather indeed had helped him create a huge problem for the b.u.t.terfly Family by cutting off their firearms cooperative supply relations.h.i.+p. This had caused the b.u.t.terfly Family to be as anxious as a cat on a hot tin roof.
However, the good times didn’t last long. Just when Goode thought that the b.u.t.terfly Family would eventually have to sacrifice and marry b.u.t.terfly w.a.n.g to him the b.u.t.terfly Family had gotten in touch with the Buffon Family unknowingly. The Buffon Family was also the firearms supplier supporting the Lancer Family. The Buffon Family was offended and they stopped their supplies to the Lancer Family directly as an eye for an eye. This had caused the Lancer Family who were always winning, to be dumbfounded!
This change had come too quickly, hadn’t it? In a blink of an eye, the position of the Lancer Family and the b.u.t.terfly Family had changed radically. The Lancer Family had fallen into a predicament, and the b.u.t.terfly Family had easily taken the advantage from their submissive position! They even threatened to want Goode’s head! This had made Goode extremely terrified. He was afraid that the Lancer Family would abandon him for the benefit of the family!
The Lancer Family’s family master at that time had been Goode’s grandfather. But, Goode was born in a big family. He knew the rules of big families – the benefit of the family was the greatest priority. Big families had always used the means of little sacrifices for the sake of the whole!
So, Goode also couldn’t tell if the Lancer Family would end up handing him over! Although his grandfather, Thomas, had been family master back then, it should be known that the family master wasn’t the only speaker in a family. The elders all had the same high-level right to speak. They could even unite and deny some decisions of the family master!
This had caused Goode to fall into panic all day long. In the end, his grandfather had saved his life at the cost of giving up his position as the family master. This had made Goode extremely grateful, yet he was even more worried. His hatred for w.a.n.g Songshan and his people deepened even more!
Goode was not stupid. Although his grandfather had paid the price in exchanging his position as the family master for Goode’s life, a new chief would bring in new aides. Who knew if the new family master would repudiate his debts upon taking office? At that time, there would be nothing that Goode could do!
However, just as Goode was scared, there was great news from within the entire Lancer family! The cousin of the new family master, Kevithan, had come! Plus, he was someone who came from that mysterious ‘Central’. It was said that his martial art skills were of a divine grade. Although Goode had never seen it for himself, his grandfather was at the scene and had seen Jetson break a huge marble conference table with a single palm. Plus, Goode had also gone to the conference room after and seen that the hard and solid marble had turned into pebbles. Goode couldn’t help but smack his lips. What level of power is this? Is he even human?
Seeing that the Lancer Family had finally found a huge supporter amidst this storm, Goode also let go of his nervousness. It was just that he was still a little anxious about whether the b.u.t.terfly Family would be afraid of his Uncle Jetson.
Moreover, the b.u.t.terfly Family seemed to be good at a.s.sa.s.sinations, so Goode was really afraid that the b.u.t.terfly Family would a.s.sa.s.sinate him! Just when he was worried, Uncle Jetson actually suggested that he stayed in the same room as him. This made Goode extremely relieved. As long as there was this expert near him, what did he need to be afraid of?
Sure enough, Uncle Jetson had defeated w.a.n.g Songshan that night. In fact, even though w.a.n.g Songshan was an a.s.sa.s.sin family patriarch, he didn’t even have the strength to fight back in the face of Uncle Jetson and could only flee. However, even when he attempted to flee, he could not escape from the hands of Uncle Jetson and eventually had to surrender obediently!
This had expanded Goode’s self-confidence to its extreme. He even almost forgot about the fact that he was still a member of the Douglas Family. At this time, he considered himself as part of the Lancer Family!
This was because it was certain that the people of the Lancer Family would soon become the strongest existence among the high society. It could ever be justified if they still didn’t rise even with such a strong supporter.
A perverted smile flashed across the corner of Goode’s mouth when he thought about how he would be able to gloriously marry b.u.t.terfly w.a.n.g in a few days. However, he still had some silent criticisms in his heart as he didn’t know whether the fiance called Yang Ming had already taken away b.u.t.terfly w.a.n.g’s virginity. Although the number of women Goode had played with had probably reached near to a hundred, he still didn’t wish that his woman would be tainted by others! At this time, he had already considered b.u.t.terfly w.a.n.g as his woman! His inflated arrogance and ego were obvious.
“However, it doesn’t matter anymore. Tonight, Yang Ming will become a dead person. Why should I bicker with a dead person?” Goode shook his head as he muttered in a delighted tone.
“It’s a pity, it still isn’t certain that I will become a dead person. You, however, will be.” A cold voice was heard and it shocked Goode who was busy being arrogant!
“Who? Who’s there? Who’s talking?” Goode was about to pick up the alarm subconsciously, but because he was in the room, he wasn’t holding the alarm with him. He had thrown the alarm onto the bed when he was soaked in happiness and dancing fanatically earlier. Now that he was anxious, he couldn’t find the alarm. However, he didn’t have the chance to look for it.
Goode only felt a slight pain in his neck, as if something needle-shaped had poked into it. However, before he could understand what was going on, he was already lying straight on the bed, as if he was asleep.
“Initially, I wanted to torture you for a while, but time is tight. So, I’ll just let you die…” The person who had come was Yang Ming. Yang Ming was at a loss for words seeing Goode talk to himself like some psychotic person. He actually wanted Yang Ming to die with such power. It wouldn’t be shocking if that Jetson person had said this, but this Goode…
If it wasn’t because he didn’t have the time, Yang Ming would really want to beat him till he lost all of his teeth and then kill him off.
“I have wasted a flying needle,” Yang Ming looked at Goode’s body and said regretfully. “It’s such a waste to use it on this kind of person. Although the material isn’t exactly rare, there really isn’t much.”
Yang Ming shook his head and retreated from Goode’s place of residence slowly. The next stop for him would be the place where w.a.n.g Songshan was being detained. It was inevitable that he would meet Jetson. Yang Ming had no confidence in being able to face this enemy. He could only improvise.
Goode’s death did not cause any chaos. Even the members of the Lancer Family didn’t know that Goode had died. As Kevithan had specially given everyone in the family a GPS positioning alarm, they could spot the location immediately after the alarm was triggered in order to carry out the necessary responses.
Yet Goode had reached a whole new level of arrogance where he was no longer as cautious and scared as before. He had become a little brazen after witnessing Jetson’s superiority. In his opinion, Jetson could not be matched regardless of how many people the enemy sent. This was why he simply threw the alarm onto the bed. He didn’t expect that he wouldn’t be able to sound the alarm even before his death.
However, Yang Ming wasn’t worried about this. Even if Goode had sounded the alarm, Yang Ming would still kill Goode without hesitation. He might even torture Goode for a while without any restraints and wait for Jetson to find him.
Yang Ming was also mentally prepared to face the enemy. Yang Ming had no restraints after killing Goode. It was the same whether he went to Jetson or Jetson came to him.
As Yang Ming was extremely familiar with the manor’s terrain, he rushed toward Jetson’s location quickly. Although his footsteps were light, Jetson still felt Yang Ming’s existence when he was about a hundred meters away!
Jetson’s hearing was extremely sharp. This was why he could notice w.a.n.g Songshan in advance the last time.
“Yang Ming, right?” Jetson said. “You have finally come. You indeed didn’t let me wait for nothing.”
Chapter 1606: Face the Enemy
Yang Ming’s heart chilled. He was extremely surprised by Jetson’s sharp senses! He was born a killer, and although his footsteps weren’t as light as the secret art of w.a.n.g Xiaoyan’s family, b.u.t.terfly Microstep, it was still considered divine grade. Yang Ming could even pa.s.s through bushes without alarming a bird, yet he was sensed by Jetson!
This made Yang Ming sigh with some regret. He initially wanted to try to ambush Jetson, but that seemed impossible now. This Jetson really must not be underestimated!
“I won’t let you wait in vain.” Since he was discovered by the other party, Yang Ming naturally wouldn’t hide. He walked out from the bushes on the side, “You’re Jetson, right? Kevithan’s cousin?”
” Hng, your intelligence is effective,” Jetson did not admit, nor did he deny. He sneered coldly, seeming to disdain talking to Yang Ming.
“Tell me about your background. Looking at your skills, you don’t seem like a nameless person,” Yang Ming said calmly. “Do you really want to stick out for the Lancer Family?”
“There is naturally no reason to tell you about my background.” Jetson sneered coldly, “Tonight, you will be a sacrificial victim. You will not leave this place alive. So, there is no point in telling you all this.”
” Hehe, since you’re so determined that I will become a dead person, there’s no harm in telling me. At least let me die with clarity, right?” Yang Ming smiled softly as if he didn’t care about his life and death.
“Kid, there’s no need to come up with things to talk about, and there’s no need to think about unrealistic things. Are you trying to find out about my details?” Jetson looked at Yang Ming expressionlessly. “However, there’s no harm in telling you.”
Jetson coming from Central was not some secret, which was why he did not need to hide it. There’s no harm in talking about it since Yang Ming wanted to know. In Jetson’s eyes, Yang Ming was a dead man. It was also good to let him die with clarity.
Yang Ming nodded his head slightly, motioning Jetson to continue. Yang Ming would naturally not reject understanding some details about his enemy. However, Yang Ming was also on guard in case Jetson suddenly attacked at this time!
After all, the two sides were in a state of hostility. How could there be any trust in what was said? There was no guarantee that Jetson would not attack when Yang Ming was off guard. However, Jetson didn’t seem to have this intention at all. Was he so arrogant that he wasn’t afraid that Yang Ming would run or attack, or was he was a true gentleman that stood by his words?
“Kid, listen closely. I’m from Central, a mysterious place that you can’t even imagine. When you die, no one will avenge you. Of course, no one would dare to avenge you. If you offend people from Central, hmph … “Jetson’s eyes showed a sudden respect when he mentioned Central.
Central? Yang Ming was stunned a little. He had never heard of this place, nor did he know about its purpose. Could it be an organization or an inst.i.tution? It sounded like it was.
“Central? Is it great?” Yang Ming asked monotonously.
“Ignorant person,” Jetson shook his head and seemed as if he was in disdain to explain further to Yang Ming. “Just die. If you hadn’t come here, I wouldn’t be able to simply attack ordinary people due to Central’s rules. However, since you sent yourself here, hehehe …”
Yang Ming’s heart went cold. His focus was immediately brought to its peak. It was impossible for Yang Ming to not be alert as Jetson was about to attack. However, Yang Ming had gotten some information from Jetson’s words – the people from Central were not able to take the initiative to attack others. Yang Ming’s heart was relieved!
Although Yang Ming didn’t know about Central, it must have a lot of people since it was an organization. If he were to really kill Jetson today, it would be difficult for him to cope if a whole bunch of Jetsons came running from Central. Not only that, the b.u.t.terfly Family and the Buffon Family would have made themselves a huge enemy. It could be described as endless troubles.
But Yang Ming felt relieved upon hearing Jetson’s words.
A flying needle was stuck in the palm of his hand. This was an a.s.sa.s.sination method that Yang Ming had tried and tested. Even when facing the enemy directly, Yang Ming was still confident that they would suffer a hidden loss!
After all, the world today was not ancient. How could there be so many secret weapons? Firearms were the most important thing to watch out for in current fights and it was critical to prevent the other side’s surprise gun attacks. No one would think that there were still people in this world who would hurt people with flying needles!
This was also one of Yang Ming’s hidden cards. One of the reasons why he had dared to come here and face Jetson was the flying needle in his hand. Yang Ming had a hundred percent certainty to hit Jetson. But Yang Ming didn’t dare to guarantee whether Jetson could be killed in one shot. However, it should cause him enough pain.
So, Yang Ming had calculated the direction Jetson’s neck would move to when Jetson suddenly stood up from the seat of the Gazebo. A flying needle flew out from his palm and directly hit Jetson.
“Hmph…” The flying needle hit Jetson’s neck, but it didn’t pierce his skin. Instead, Jetson simply plucked it out and flicked it to the ground. “What is this, a mosquito?”
Jetson is actually alright? Yang Ming clearly saw the flying needle hit Jetson. He was just about to be happy that he had hit Jetson without using any effort. However, the result was completely beyond his expectations. The needle didn’t seem to hurt Jetson at all. It didn’t even scratch his skin. Could it be that this person has some kind of s.h.i.+eld on his neck?
However, Yang Ming had no time to think in detail. Jetson had already gotten up and rushed toward Yang Ming. His pair of giant arms grabbed at Yang Ming aggressively!
A hint of doubt flashed across Yang Ming’s eyes. Isn’t Jetson a martial arts master? How can this be? Although Jetson’s speed and strength are very powerful, he just rushed over without any tricks at all. He is showing flaws all over his body. Such a person could actually capture w.a.n.g Songshan? This was unimaginable for Yang Ming.
“Peng!”
Although Yang Ming thought it was unbelievable, he still kicked at Jetson’s lower abdomen aggressively. This was one of the weak points on the human body. Regardless of whether it was a man or a woman, once this position had taken a hard hit, it would not end up well! So, Yang Ming believed that it was impossible for Jetson to not dodge. Yang Ming had already thought of a move for after he dodged!
“Si—” Yang Ming’s foot hit against Jetson’s abdomen, but Yang Ming’s mouth uttered a painful moan. Does Jetson wear something on his belly? Why is it so hard? It was like Yang Ming had kicked a huge rock and the bones of his foot had almost fractured!
However, this was not enough to surprise Yang Ming as there was an even bigger surprise coming. Jetson didn’t seem to feel anything, and his hands grabbed at Yang Ming continuously! Jetson’s expression didn’t seem to show any pain from the hit; there was only a hint of ridicule!
This realization startled Yang Ming. Not only did Jetson not block his abdomen and not have any painful response, but he even maintained his initial speed and rushed over! This made all of Yang Ming’s follow up moves lose their purpose. They couldn’t be used at all!
As Yang Ming thought of this, his stiff upper body bent backward and his whole person become an arch! However, even so, he still couldn’t escape Jetson’s strike completely!
“Chi la—”
Yang Ming’s s.h.i.+rt was caught and torn up by Jetson. There was some cold sweat on Yang Ming’s forehead. If Jetson were to grab his shoulder, wouldn’t his flesh be torn off? Or, there was even a possibility that his scapula would be broken!
How is this person so strong? While Yang Ming was thinking about this, his hands planted on the ground and his feet left the ground at the same time, kicking toward Jetson with force. Jetson’s upper body was coincidentally slanted at this time, maintaining his attacking stance toward Yang Ming. So, Yang Ming’s feet stomped directly and forcefully onto Jetson’s face!
This kick had used up almost all of Yang Ming’s entire strength. Yang Ming was confident that even the most powerful person would be injured at this moment. It was even possible that their head would fly off!
