Chapter 1084: Letting Off for the Time Being
Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
At this moment, almost everyone in the fighting hall had their eyes on Lucas.
After all, he had just killed G.o.dfrey, one of the Steeles’ direct descendants. And now he was strangling the neck of Jace, the eldest scion of the Huttons. Would Jace follow in G.o.dfrey’s footsteps and get killed by Lucas as well?
This young man was too audacious!
These two people were scions of two of the top eight families in DC!
Offending one would already be enough trouble. But now, Lucas actually wanted to offend two giants at once.
!!
“Young man, calm down!” The white-bearded old man was anxious. But now that Jace was in Lucas’s hands, he didn’t dare to say anything to provoke Lucas.
At the same time, several powerful auras in Club Illuma spread toward Lucas.
Lucas was holding Jace by his neck like a chicken. He felt incredibly furious and humiliated.
But his strength was simply pathetic to Lucas. There was no way he could break free!
At this moment, Jace’s heart was full of regret.
Why did he provoke Lucas when he knew full well that Lucas was the invincible G.o.d of War?
Jace was overwhelmed with suffocating pain and the fear of his fate being in someone else’s hands. His face was pale and purplish, and his regret was about to devour him!
Alexander and Ashley were also astonished. They didn’t expect that Lucas would dare to take action against Jace after killing G.o.dfrey!
“Lu-Lucas, you…” Alexander opened his mouth, but he was at a loss for words.
But Lucas wasn’t a reckless person. After feeling the terrifying auras in Club Illuma, he understood that although he could easily kill Jace, it wouldn’t be simple for him to leave the club afterward.
Besides, Lucas’s goal wasn’t to kill Jace but to find out about his mother from him. Now that they were in public, it really wasn’t a good time to ask about it.
“I’ll let you live a while longer, but I hope you can tell me truthfully what I want to hear before the tournament ends tonight. Otherwise, you’ll die today!”
With that, Lucas casually threw Jace to the floor with a flip of his hand.
Thud!
Jace fell onto the floor like a bag of garbage. Although he was in pain, he had at least escaped Lucas’s clutches and had a shot at survival!
Jace panted heavily, his face covered in joy after escaping death.
The white-bearded old man hurried to Jace and checked on his condition. Finding that Lucas hadn’t taken the opportunity to get up to any tricks to Jace’s body, he was relieved.
But at this moment, Jace had already developed an immense fear of Lucas, and he no longer dared to provoke Lucas by relying on the white-bearded old man on his side.
The experience just now made Jace realize that even though he was now under the protection of Club Illuma and the white-bearded old man, Lucas’s martial arts skills were still unpredictable, and it would be extremely difficult for him to escape if Lucas really wanted to deal with him.
Trevor, watching nearby, saw this scene too.
“Maxim, how are Lucas Gray’s martial arts skills compared to yours?” Trevor asked.
The middle-aged man named Maxim narrowed his eyes and said solemnly, “I don’t know. He’s indeed very skilled, but he hasn’t shown his true strength.”
“So I can’t be sure before I officially fight with him. But he shouldn’t be much weaker than me!”
After Trevor heard the middle-aged man’s reply, his heart sank even more.
Trevor had spent a ma.s.sive amount of money to hire Maxim from a secret organization. Even the elite experts of the Steele family were no match for Maxim.
But Lucas was just a young man in his twenties, yet he managed to make Maxim be so wary and even think of him so highly. It was really unimaginable.
Trevor clenched his fist and looked at Alexander standing in the crowd. “Seems like this friend of my cousin is indeed not simple!”
He had never taken Alexander, who was about to be kicked out of the core of the family, seriously. None of Alexander’s representatives had ever been able to beat his in the annual tournament of Club Illuma, so the family rights and businesses in Alexander’s hands had gradually become fewer and fewer.
If Alexander really convinced Lucas to fight for him and defeat Maxim, many of the businesses Trevor owned would be s.n.a.t.c.hed away by Alexander!
Trevor would never allow it to happen!
Now that G.o.dfrey had been killed by Lucas, Alexander was his only adversary among the younger generation of the Steeles. He couldn’t give Alexander a chance to succeed!
“Maxim, I’m counting on you for the tournament later. You have to defeat that punk!” Trevor instructed with a grim look.
“Yes, I will definitely do my best!” Maxim promised.
The match in the ring was still ongoing, and the spectators once again turned their attention to the fight after seeing that the conflict between Lucas and Trevor had ended for the time being.
In the ring, two powerhouses were having an exciting fight.
Lucas sat in his seat and watched the fight in the ring calmly, as if he hadn’t done anything just now.
Alexander and Ashley didn’t dare to talk to Lucas, for fear that they would accidentally offend him.
If they really angered him, who knows what terrifying things he would do!
But after a while, Ashley finally couldn’t resist and carefully asked Lucas, “Lucas, can you help us out in the tournament later?”
Hearing his sister’s question, Alexander was taken aback and wanted to reprimand her.
After all, Lucas had already said that even the helmsman of the Steeles was in no place to invite him to fight on his behalf, let alone them.
The first thing that came to Alexander’s mind was not to offend Lucas again!
But after hearing Ashley’s question, Lucas didn’t have any anger on his face, making Alexander slightly relieved.
Alexander was honestly very tempted and conflicted.
Based on Lucas’s performance just now, if he was willing to help, he might even be able to defeat the middle-aged man behind Trevor.
If this happened, his camp would win first place this year, and he might even be able to compete with Trevor again, thus rising up from the doldrums!
At this thought, Alexander couldn’t help looking at Lucas expectantly.
After hesitating for a while, Alexander finally gritted his teeth and begged, “Mr. Gray, I know my request is a bit too much, but the tournament this year is very critical to me. Moreover, you’re the only person I can rely on now!
“As long as you can help me defeat Trevor’s representative, I’ll be at your beck and call in the future!”
