Chapter 131 Give Him Everything
Saint Yellowbeard frowned at his name being mangled.
“You bastard! I don’t want to waste my time arguing with you. You think you can hold me back? Dream
on!” Saint Yellowbeard let out a cold laugh. In a split second, he approached Jacqueline and wrapped
his hands around her throat, strangling her.
“Jacqueline-” Roger exclaimed in alarm, filled with deep concern.
Saint Yellowbeard fixed his gaze on Emrys and sneered, “Step aside, boy. If you dare to provoke me,
I’ll snap this girl’s neck right away!”
He had no plans of engaging in a physical confrontation with Emrys.
During their encounter at Mount Celestial, he had witnessed Emrys‘ immense power and recognized
that Emrys possessed a higher level of cultivation than himself.-
At this point, Saint Yellowbeard just wanted to get out of the situation.
The best way to do that was to hold Jacqueline hostage, keeping Emrys alert and on edge.
On Jacqueline’s delicate and fair neck, five red marks appeared, evidence of Saint Yellowbeard’s nails
digging into her skin.
The color drained out of her face.
Roger pleaded with urgency, “Saint Yellowbeard, I won’t hold you accountable for the past, just as long
as you promise me you won’t harm my daughter!”
“You hear that, you little brat? The people involved have decided to let it go, so you should just get out
of my way!” Saint Yellowbeard bellowed.
“Is that so?” Emrys sighed inwardly. How dare this insolent creature challenge the Empyrean Lord!
“You’re just courting death!”
All of a sudden, Saint Yellowbeard’s mind went blank. It felt as if an invisible force had seized hold of
him, leaving him unable to move or think clearly.
Next, a crimson glimmer of blood seeped through his forehead, unfolding like a red flower in full
bloom.
What a terrifying sight to behold!
That was not the power a friar would possess but rather the divine ability of a cultivator!
With that, Saint Yellowbeard met a gruesome end.
Jacqueline quickly escaped from Saint Yellowbeard’s grasp, her complexion pale. Her bosom heaved
violently, showing her lingering fear.
Chapter 131 Give Hi Everything
Upon noticing the blood stain on her neck, Roger asked, “Do you feel uncomfortable, Jacqueline?”
Jacqueline shook her head.
Roger heaved a sigh of relief.Text property © Nôvel(D)ra/ma.Org.
At that very moment, Hannah was utterly shocked. She had presumed that Saint Yellowbeard, with his
profound skills, would easily overcome Emrys. However, she had not even caught a glimpse of how
Emrys executed his actions. That young man is truly formidable!
“Hannah Stark, since we are still technically married, I’ll spare your pathetic life. Now, get out of the
Balford residence!” Roger roared.
Hannah did not dare to utter a single word of protest. She hastily crawled away from the Balford
residence, fear gripping her every step.
After disposing of Saint Yellowbeard’s b*dy, Roger made his way back to the living room and expressed
his deep gratitude to Emrys. “Dr. Lund, you’ve saved our entire family. By the way, Jacqueline has also
already informed me about the medical fees.”
Emrys cast a silent glance at Jacqueline. Not bad. Good to see she knows how to show gratitude.
Nonetheless, even if she had not mentioned the medical fees, it would have made no difference to him.
Money, to Empyrean Lord, was merely numbers.
Emrys‘ earlier demand for half of the Balford family assets was nothing more than a bluff intended to
intimidate them.
Just as Emrys was about to refuse the offer, Roger’s voice interrupted him, filled with respect. “Not only
half of the Balford family’s assets, but if necessary, I am willing to dedicate everything we have to you,
Dr. Lund.”
Recalling the immense power demonstrated by Emrys during the defeat of Saint Yellowbeard, Roger
could not help but be filled with a thrilling sense of awe. I don’t think a person of such caliber will ever
be short on money.
Motivated by that realization, Roger wholeheartedly offered to give Emrys everything the Balfords
owned, not only as a token of gratitude but also as an attempt to win favor with him.
Indeed, Roger wanted to get into Emrys‘ good book.
“You’re willing to give me everything the Balford family possesses?” Emrys asked.
Emrys, with a puzzled look on his face, turned to Jacqueline. As they mentioned “everything,” does that
include this young lady?
