Chapter 351
Forget it.
Since Quincy had spoken, it would be inappropriate if he declined to go there. Moreover, Taylor wouldnot dare to do anything with him there.
As such, Thomas headed into the villa and asked Chloe to keep Emily company. Then, he headed tothe hospital where, inside Quincy’s office, he met the real man behind the Saunder Family for the firsttime.
Taylor wore a navy-blue martial arts uniform with a walking cane in his hand. When he saw Thomas, hewas full of smiles and looked amicable. However, Thomas was not fooled by his facade. He had longsince developed a prejudice against the Six Greatest Families and thought Taylor might be a wolf insheep’s clothing.
“Old Mr. Saunder, I’m here. Please go ahead.” He got straight to the point.
“He’s right, Old Mr. Saunder. Thomas is a straightforward kid, so you can just name whatevercooperation you wish to engage with him,” Quincy concurred beside. Not only was Thomas curiousabout the cooperation Taylor mentioned, but so was Quincy.
Hearing that, Taylor nodded and explained his plan. However, the more Thomas listened, the more hefelt something was wrong. It was normal for Taylor to want to be free of the six old monsters’ control,but did Taylor have a misconception of him? Or perhaps Taylor thought of him as a fool.
“Mr. Clifford, to be honest, as long as you agree to work with the Saunder Family, I’ll present you with amassive gift. I believe with your ability and that gift, you can easily defeat the six old monsters, nosweat!”
Taylor had heard that even the first man under the six old monsters, Cordan Adams, had lost toThomas. Therefore, it was evident Thomas was not a force that could be easily reckoned with. At thevery least, he was the only person Taylor could find that might stand a chance to go head-on-head withthe six old monsters. Moreover, Thomas had a huge grudge against the six old monsters, so there wasbound to be a battle to the death between them. No matter what, he was the best candidate to helpTaylor.
Subsequently, Thomas gave Taylor a meaningful look. “But first, you must tell me who you’d beensacrificing to all these years. Who are the people you’ve been answering to?'”
He would not be foolish enough to reject at first chance because he would not be able to get theanswers he wanted if he offended Taylor. Even Quincy could not find anything after so many years ofinvestigating.
“Uhm…” The embarrassed Taylor averted his gaze to Quincy, who blinked at him innocently. He did notwant to say anything because if he did, it meant disclosing the forces behind those six old monsters toThomas. He was afraid Thomas would be scared by that newfound knowledge and refuse to work withhim. It’s every man for himself! That’s the old saying passed down since ancient times.
Thomas’ eyes turned cold as he narrowed them at Taylor. How did he expect them to work together ifthe other party was unwilling to reveal such a minor detail?
Tap! Tap! Tap!
He tapped his fingers on the table while asking mischievously, “Old Mr. Saunder, is there somethingyou can’t disclose, or is it because you don’t wish to tell me?”
When Taylor heard that, he was stunned because he did not want to say anything. How did Thomasfigure it out? Can he read minds or something? How does he know what I’m thinking? At the sametime, he was frustrated. Why do you care? Those six old monsters are about to come to you, so you
only have to tell me whether you agree to work with me. What’s the point of asking me so manyquestions? Can you possibly refuse to work with me because I keep my mouth shut? That’s absurd!How can you win against them without my gift?
“Huh!” Thomas sneered and got up. “It’s all up to you, but I think you can forget about the deal.”
Once he was done, he pretended to walk away. Emily was still at Northpine Villa, so he needed toreturn to entertain her, leaving him no time to waste on Taylor. In terms of identity and status, she wasfar more crucial than this old man!
That retort rendered Taylor at a loss for words. After all, he did not expect Thomas would choose not tocooperate with him because he refused to answer a question. That was simply outrageous!
“Wait. I’ll tell you!”novelbin
Taylor was highly frustrated because it was the first time he did not get what he wanted. Also, theperson who made him feel this way was a young man in his twenties. Still, he had no choice but toendure it because his family’s matter was critical.
“The real people in charge of the Six Greatest Families aren’t the six old monsters. Those six are justmanaging us on behalf of a hidden sect. That sect has a vicious internal martial art that requires takingyin essence to help them improve their abilities. Therefore, regardless of whether it was a member ofthat sect or those six old monsters, they all had several wives. The person they have to sacrificesomething to is their master. Every once in a while, they would send a woman with frost blood to him,and as a form of repayment, their master would teach them martial arts skills or techniques to helpthem improve their abilities. However, the sacrificed woman will suffer because once that old scoundreltakes away her yin essence, he will remove every drop of her blood. Besides that, that old scoundrelhas a hobby. He would turn those women into specimens for display!”
Bam!
Once Taylor finished his explanation, Thomas could not hold back his anger and slammed his fist onthe desk. Instantly, the mahogany desk was rendered into pieces!
Getting assaulted and having their blood drained was something Thomas knew would happen. Still, thewomen were already tortured to death, yet their bodies had to be made into a specimen for that oldb*stard to show off! Was that not stopping the deceased from resting in peace? That was simplyinhumane and utterly heartless!
What infuriated him the most was that Olivia was also one of the sacrifices. If he had not appeared inher life, she might not have been able to escape such a horrible encounter.
Looking at his broken desk, Quincy shook his head and sighed but did not say anything. As Thomas’friend, he understood his fury. However, it was a pity that his desk had to suffer.
“What sect are they from?”
“The Crimson Moon.”
“How strong are those six old monsters?” Though Thomas had a rough guess, he thought he shouldstill confirm with Taylor.
“The Peak of Profound Tier Three.” Taylor paused momentarily before adding, “Those six are not to bereckoned with, especially since they have the Crimson Moon’s special techniques and weapons in theirhands. The Saunder Family desperately needs you to stall them for two hours. Once those two hoursare up, you can kill them immediately!”
