Love at the Wrong Table
Chapter 2167 Time for the Fourth Whip
Itâs time to deliver the fourth whip to you
In Zovince. Emmanuel frowned as he suddenly received this cryptic message from Sage.
âWhatâs Sage up to? He doesnât answer his phone but sends me such a bizarre message?â
Emmanuelâs sharp mind immediately deduced that this message wasnât sent by Sage himself.
That could only mean⦠Sageâs communication device has been seized by someone.
Who could be that formidable?
Could it beâ¦
Emmanuelâs eyes widened in realization as a terrifying thought crossed his mind.
Given that Towerineis located in the West End of Chanaea, could it be that she has encountered Sage by chance?
That would be too coincidental.
Commander Lowe!â
At that moment, Albin hurriedly entered the room.
âSpeak.â
âAlright, Commander Lowe.â
Albin stood at attention and reported meticulously, âThe representative from Shoiya has arrived in Chanaea. You are requested to immediately join Mr. Hale to ensure his safety at all times.â
âUnderstood.â
Emmanuel knew this was a highâlevel mission personally assigned by Santiago. Even though he was severely injured, he had no choice but to endure and carry it out.
âCommander Lowe, thereâs another piece of news,â Albin added cautiously.
âGo on.â
Emmanuel, not quite accustomed to Albinâs meticulous demeanor, missed the smoother communication. he had with Sage.
âAlright.â
Albin saluted again before continuing, âOriginally, Yorick was scheduled to face Florus Admon of the Eight Supremes tomorrow. Rumor has it that she ranks second among them in strength. However, since she left Zovince two days ago, Yorick has also departed, seemingly in pursuit of her.â
âWhat?â
This was anything but good news for Emmanuel.

His prior investigations revealed Florus Admonâs deep es to âTeddy. Leaving Zovince at this critical moment most likely meant she was heading to West ErI.
Based on his deductions, the Dark Red Shadow Felicity described was likely her.
If Yorick intended to challenge the entire martial arts world of Chanaca, his arrival in West End could pose
a threat to Emmanuelâs child or, at the very least, complicate Sageâs efforts to retrieve the child.
At this moment, Emmanuel deeply wished he could abandon his responsibilities in Zovince and rush to West End to rescue his son.
However, two major obstacles stood in his way.
First, his severe injuries rendered him incapable of facing Yorick, let alone the Eight Supremes.
Second, national duties took precedence. Shoiyaâs representative had arrived to negotiate critical state affairs, and their aggressive demeanor required Ethanâs safety to be uncompromised to maintain a firm stance in the talks.

For now, Emmanuel could only rely on his comrades in the Wolf Warriorâand perhaps even pray for that womanâs assistance.
Elsewhere, Gautier and Florus Admon had ventured deep into the mountains.
âI never expected anyone to live in these remote forestsâ Gautier remarked, marveling at the dense wilderness.
West End was notorious for bandit activity, and these untouched forests seemed like a perfect haven for outlaws. With lush greenery, an abundance of fruits, and ample water sources, the area had immense potential as a scenic tourist spot in a more developed region.
Florus Admon, holding Caden, remained silent.
Despite her age, her unparalleled cultivation had slowed her aging, leaving her with a youthful appearance. Her lack of marriage or motherhood didnât diminish her natural maternal instincts, and she found herself doting on the adorable child.
Watching from the side, Gautier couldnât help but smile. The scene reminded him of a scene from a drama.
Suddenly, cold laughter echoed from ahead. âHaha! This path is mine, this tree is my doing. To pass through here, leave a toll behind.â
âMen to the left, women to the rightâup against the wall. This is a robbery!â
A gang of mountain bandits armed with a variety of weapons surrounded them.
Anyone else might have panicked, but Gautier remained calm.
The banditsâ wellâorganized appearance suggested they had been lying in wait.
âDid Mr. Willyâs sisterâinâlaw instruct you to ambush us here?â Gautier asked knowingly.

The leader, a bearded man who appeared younger than his scruffy visage suggested, froze briefly, âWho are you?â
His reaction confirmed Gautierâs suspicions. Smiling faintly, he said, âWeâre allies of Mr. Willyâs sisterâin-
law.*
âWhy should we believe you?â
The leaderâs sneer betrayed the truthâJeff had indeed orchestrated their ambush.
Gautier chuckled inwardly. The infamous Ken, a traitor within Mackenzieâs ranks, clearly had ties to these bandits.
It was the first time Gautier came to West End, but he had been keeping an eye on the situation long ago. He had heard about the previous incidents where the rich businessmen of Silvergate were attacked by bandits, which suggested that there was a traitor.
He never expected the traitor to be the head of West End. It seemed that Ken had been gaining profits.
Surprisingly, Mackenzie was able to head to the headquarters of the Five Poison Sect, forcing them to kidnap her child to threaten her to retreat.
âBelieve me or not, Mr. Willyâs sisterâinâlaw was left behind at the foot of the mountain. We need your help to delay the Wolf Warrior for two days,â Gautier declared.
âHah! Why should we listen to you? Who do you think you are?â
The bandits erupted into laughter, their loyalty tied solely to two alliancesâthe Five Poison Sect and the leader of West End.
âAllow me to introduce myself,â Gautier said with a sly grin. âIâm Gautier Verkade. As for why you should listen-â
Before finishing, he lunged at the leader with lightning speed.
The leader froze. He hadnât expected Gautier to be so ruthless when he looked so gentle.
âBoss!â
As the other bandits reacted, Gautier grabbed the leaderâs throat.
âDonât move, or Iâll kill him!â Gautier shouted.

Florus Admon admired Gautierâs cunningâbeneath his refined exterior lay the ferocity of a wolf.
Nevertheless, some bandits, indifferent to their leaderâs fate, attempted a sneak attack.
After all, there were still some of them who wanted their leader dead and to take his place.
Gautier did not expect the sneak attack. He was in a daze.
Unfazed, Florus Admonâs red sleeves flicked, unleashing a volley of steel needles.
Thud!

Everything fell silent. The wouldâbe attackers fell silent standing lifeless with faces pierced by needles.
With another flick of her sleeve, their heads toppled, painting the ground crimson,
There was no other word for it.
