Chapter 466: Chapter 464: Murdering the Master_1

Xavier Cooper’s face flashed with a struggle, as hate began to fill his narrow eyes.

He lowered his voice and gritted his teeth, “As long as you help me kill my master, my life is yours.”

“Kill your master?”

Greg Jensen couldn’t help but be stunned.

Heaven, Earth, Ruler, Parent, Teacher; these are etched into the bones of the Chinese, indelible and unerasable.

It can be said that, in modern society, other than one’s father and brothers, the master should be the next closest person.

Why would Xavier Cooper want to kill his master?

Facing Greg Jensen’s confusion, Xavier Cooper slowly lowered his head and said softly, “I was an orphan, adopted by my master at the age of eight…”

Xavier Cooper told two versions of the story.

The first version was quite common, just the typical “abandoned infant, master’s adoption” tale.

However, the latter version thoroughly shocked Greg Jensen’s values.

The incident happened when Xavier Cooper was eight, his whole family was exterminated, with his parents and grandmother all dying tragically at home.

And the murderer was his master—Thomas Lampe.

Xavier Cooper had fainted at the time, but soon woke up again. Perhaps Thomas Lampe thought he hadn’t seen his face, so he didn’t kill him but instead kept him by his side.

Eleven years passed, and Xavier Cooper harbored this secret in his heart, not daring to show the slightest dissatisfaction, always thinking of the day he could personally avenge his family.

In recent years, as his martial arts skills improved, he had countless opportunities to kill Thomas Lampe, but for some reason, he suddenly found it hard to go through with it.

He was afraid, afraid that he would one day forget his hatred.

That’s why he wanted Greg Jensen to act, to help him kill his master.

Greg Jensen frowned after listening and thought about how he already had enough enemies. He didn’t want to make another one, much less get involved in someone else’s grudge.

Xavier Cooper seemed to read his thoughts and said, “You’ve already provoked the Stuart Family, what’s one more in Thomas Lampe?”

Greg Jensen raised an eyebrow and scoffed, “Are you saying I’m as good as dead?”

“Pretty much.”

Xavier Cooper said calmly, “Perhaps you’ve just arrived in the northwest and don’t know about the power of the Stuart Family here.

If you knew, you would definitely keep me by your side. Since you’re as good as dead anyway, might as well help me kill Thomas Lampe before you go. At least I’ll be grateful to you.”

Greg Jensen was almost amused by his twisted logic. “And if I don’t die?”

“Impossible!”

Xavier Cooper said dismissively, “Don’t think that just because you beat Duncan Kong, you can stand up to the Stuart Family. They are a formidable presence beyond your imagination.”

Greg Jensen said, “Your goading has worked. I’ll keep you by my side and let you see how I survive.”

A trace of joy appeared on Xavier Cooper’s calm face as he said, “You’re agreeing to help me kill my master?”

“We’ll see when I’m in a good mood,” Greg Jensen replied, shaking his head and walking towards Lukas Simon.

Xavier Cooper followed behind, explaining, “What I said is true. The Stuart Family really isn’t something you can contend with.

Ah, why won’t you believe me?”

Lukas Simon, hearing their conversation, glanced at Xavier Cooper and said to Greg Jensen:

“Brother Jensen, the kid is right, the Stuart Family is indeed tough to deal with.

Not to mention their reach extends into the military, the inspectors, and other departments, even within the government circles they have old friends.

Moreover, a large part of the energy and medical industry in the northwest is controlled by the Stuart Family.

They have both the money and the people, what do you have to fight them with?”

Greg Jensen replied indifferently, “Meet the soldiers with confrontation, stem the water with earth; it’s no big deal.”

“You, ah…”

Lukas Simon was at a loss for words and could only sigh helplessly, “Just be careful, alright? If it really comes to it, hide at my place.

I may not be able to take on the Stuart Family for you, but keeping you alive shouldn’t be a problem.”

Greg Jensen felt a warmth in his heart and said, “Then I’ll thank you in advance, Big Brother Lukas.”

“What’s there to thank? Is our friendship something that needs such words?”

“By the way, how is Alberto’s health?”

Lukas Simon gave a wry smile, “Same as before.”

Greg felt somewhat embarrassed and said, “Sorry, I went a little overboard at that time.”

“Not too much. That kid deserved a lesson.”

Modern medicine is highly developed. Although Alberto’s limbs were crushed by Greg, surgery had reattached them. He was merely bedridden and restless all day.

Lukas Simon had raised Alberto like a son and naturally felt heartache seeing his nephew unable to move in bed.

However, he also felt that Alberto’s current condition was a blessing in disguise, keeping him from causing trouble outside.

After thinking for a moment, Greg took out a Little Reviving Pill and said, “Give him a bit of this medicine every day. It will help him recover quickly.”

“Alright, thanks, Brother Glen,” Lukas Simon said.

“Didn’t you just say it? Our friendship doesn’t need such formalities. Besides, his injuries were my fault to begin with. It’s only right.”

The two exchanged a look and both smiled.

At this moment, Trent Preston and Simon Cooper approached, followed by the heads of several smaller families.

“Mr. Wolfe, we…”

“Clean this place up, and you’re free to go. I will come to find you in a couple of days,” Greg said coldly.

“Don’t even think of running away. Even if it’s to the ends of the earth, I will find you,” warned Greg.

Simon Cooper quickly replied, “We wouldn’t dare. We’ll wait at home.”

“Go on then,” Greg nodded.

After these people left, Lukas Simon also took his leave.

Before leaving, he made sure to remind Greg to be extra cautious, as the Stuart family might very well take a shot at him.

Greg nodded in agreement, watching as the helicopter gradually disappeared into the distance.

He glanced once more at the heads of the families before returning to the Wolfe family villa with Duncan Kong and Xavier Cooper.

He watched the mortuary staff handle Chelsea Wolfe’s body with delicate care, but inside he was eerily calm.

Yet a profound sadness lingered in his heart, refusing to dissipate.

He stood in the yard until the sun shifted westward, only coming back to his senses when the nanny called him to eat.

Greg shook his head and said, “I don’t plan to stay here anymore. Inform Glen to find me a new place.”

“Yes, Mr. Wolfe.”

The nanny walked into the villa and made a call to Glen Wolfe.

Greg turned and took one deep look at the villa, his expression complex.

Now that she is gone, let all that has passed, along with the girl in my memories, remain here.

It was my naivety to blame, thinking that Troy Milton and the others would play by the rules, to stand on the stage and settle life and death openly and fairly, as I did when challenging Nathan Green.@@novelbin@@

Unexpectedly, they broke the rules and resorted to underhanded tactics, causing Chelsea’s tragic death and leaving Trey Holmes with serious injuries.

Fortunately, Trey had skills and her level wasn’t low.

Considering the situation at the time, she must have just entered the garage during the explosion, which is why she escaped unharmed.

If she had been in the car, her higher level wouldn’t have likely spared her.

“I wonder how that girl is now.”

Greg thought for a while, feeling that Trey’s condition should be good.

Before she was taken to the ambulance, he had fed her a Little Reviving Pill and used the silver needle to seal her wounds. She should have already woken up by now.

He decided to call Glen Wolfe himself and inquired about Trey’s condition.

As he suspected, she woke up shortly after reaching the hospital, and the doctors said her recovery was astoundingly fast. She wouldn’t need long before she could be discharged.
