Chapter 176 After the trio left the auction house, they walked outside and went back to their hotel.
While they were heading toward the highway entrance, Eira came to a spacious courtyard in the
Roselle Lodge. âMaster, Howard Rosweld has gotten the Lightning Wood.â A frail but gentle voice
sounded from the room. âWhat about the rest? Who are the people that tried to get the item?â
âHoward Rosweld from Private Room No.5. âMr. Carl Phillius from Private Room No. 2. âMr. Gerald
Templar from Private Room No. 1.
"And a young man that goes by the surname of Yarde in the common seat. He came here with Dr.
Ewell.â
After Eira finished speaking, the weak voice sounded again. âThat's all?â
"Yes."
The woman in the room sighed, âHoward is but an old roughneck that hangs out in the gray area.
He doesn't know anything about the usage of the Lightning Wood. As for Elder Master Phillius and
Elder Master Templar, I'm sure they need the Lightning Wood for their own use. What about this Mr.
Yarde? Do you know why he was going after the Lightning Wood?â Eira thought for a moment and
said, âI'm not so sure about it either. Although Mr. Yarde showed interest in the Lightning Wood, I
donât know what heâs going to do with it.â
The master of the lodge sighed disappointingly and said, âForget about it. Go look for Howard and
buy the Lightning Wood back from him."While Kayson and his group were on their way back, a
black Volkswagen appeared from theintersection on the right and stopped in front of them. When
they saw the three men that got out of the car, Lindsy said exasperatedly, âHeirein? Why canât he
just leave us alone!?â âAnd that Tanner. He just won't let me go either!â Zachary's face sank.As for
the last person of the group, he was an energetic old man in a martial arts uniform. Lindsy got out
of the car and shouted angrily, âHeirein! How could you go back on your words!?"Heirein let out a
cold smirk and said, âYou're so naive, Lindsy.â Kayson then chimed in and said calmly, âIt seems like
you still haven't learned your lesson.â
When Heirein heard what he said, his face turned grim, and he hissed through gritted teeth.â Did
you really think I'd let you all go after what you did to me?âKid, I just wanted you to stay away from
Lindsy, but you had to court for death!Chepter 176"You brought this upon yourself! Master Garland,
please!â The energetic-looking old man wearing a martial arts uniform said calmly, âDr. Smith, is this
the young man you talked about?â Tanner smirked and replied, âYes! That's him! And Zachary! Don't
let any of them get away!â Master Garland nodded and turned to look at Kayson. Then, he said
contemptuously, âKid, it's still not too late for you to get down on your knees and beg for mercy.â
Lindsy huffed and said, âThis should be our line! You're no match for Kayson!â When Master Garland
heard what Lindsy said, he scoffed indifferently. âYou're too young, little girl.â
After he finished speaking, he got into an attacking position while Heirein and Tanner watched with
triumphant grins on their faces as they would finally get their revenge. However, just when Master
Garland was about to make his move, a figure dashed out from the bushes nearby. Master Garland
squinted his eyes, and then his face turned pale."G-Grandmaster Garcia!?"Other than Kayson and
Lindsy, the others were all stunned. Grandmaster Garcia, otherwise known as Darius Garcia, was an
infamous elite fighter in Skyriv. No one knew what he came here for. As a fighter himself, it went
without saying that Master Garland knew about Darius. After all, there were very few people in
Skyriv who could match him in terms of battle prowess. Darius gazed at him indifferently and
nodded before turning to Kayson. âHand over the Bocca Fruit, and I'll leave your body intact,â he
said in a calm but
imperative voice. Master Garland was dumbfounded for a moment before he realized that Darius
was also here for Kayson. It seemed to him that Kayson was going to die here today.
