Chapter 230 Hanrock Peak
It was eleven o’clock at night.
In the dark night of March in Hallcester, the spring was bitterly cold, with cold winds blowing from all directions.
A light rain began to drizzle in the evening.
The mountain road leading to Mauveglow Villa 1 was cold and desolate.
Several figures in black darted past, disappearing into the cold night rain like ghosts.
A Hummer SUV sped by.
Robin sat in the car, watching a few shimmering figures in the night rain, with a slight smile on his lips.
“Leonel, turn off the high beams, take the fork in the road ahead towards Hanrock Valley.”
“Yes, Mr. Bruce.”
At the bend of the road on Mount Mauveglow, a spray of raindrops suddenly splashed up.
A sudden gust of night wind arose, and the Hummer SUV eerily disappeared into the dark valley.
The road on Mount Mauveglow returned to its previous silence once. again.
The man in black in the valley became alert instantly, quickly
searching for Robin’s target among several mountain paths.
“General, the target has disappeared,” the man in black immediately signaled to Randall.
Shortly, the man in black noticed that the previous Hummer SUV had darted out from a fork in the road ahead, continuing to race towards the peak of Mount Mauveglow.
A dozen or so people in black confirmed that the target they were tracking had appeared again.
Quickly started up, closely following the Hummer SUV, chasing towards the peak of Mount Mauveglow in the distance….
The Deadly Bend of Hanrock Peak.
The Hummer SUV slowly came to a stop.
A dozen unfamiliar faces got out of three Mercedes.
Israel followed an elderly man of similar age, quickly arriving in front of the car: “Travis has met Mr. Bruce.”
Robin stepped out of the car, while Leonel stood by, holding a large black umbrella.
“Rudy, come over and kneel before Mr. Bruce!” Travis pointed to Rudy, who was hiding behind him.
Rudy staggered forward, about to kneel, but Robin said indifferently. “Enough, it’s all in the past now!”
Travis hastily said, “Thank you for your generosity, Mr. Bruce. The Barrett family is willing to use all its strength to serve as your vanguard, to clear away any enemies that come your way.”
Chapter 230 Hanrock Pex
Robin glanced at the old man in front of him, indifferently saying, “Travis, I owe nothing to the Barrett family. Are you sure you want to wade into this muddy water?”
Travis bowed and said, “Mr. Bruce, Mr. Deshawn is the son–in–law of the Barrett family. My daughter Marcella is also a member of the Hondry Sect.”
That year, Matthew made a solemn oath, Hondry Sect would forever regard Mr. Bruce with respect, and the disciples of Hondry Sect would honor Mr. Bruce as their master for life.
“I solemnly swore, never to betray!”
“Now, this thief Irving has joined the Dark Lord. He has bewitched the disciples of the Hondry Sect to come and kill Mr. Bruce. The Barrett family will not stand by and do nothing!”
“Mr. Bruce, the Barrett family was willing to charge ahead for you!”
A girl of about sixteen or seventeen next to Travis was looking at Robin with confusion, her eyebrows furrowed as she asked, “Grandpa, who is this person? Where is Lord Dragon?”
Israel broke out in a cold sweat immediately, hastily stopping her, “Ms. Barrett, please don’t talk nonsense.” Content is property of NôvelDrama.Org.
Travis also sternly said, “Kimberly, stop talking nonsense, this is an adult, hurry up and pay your respects to Mr. Bruce.”
This girl was Travis’s great–granddaughter, Rudy’s sister, Kimberly
Barrett.
Kimberly opened her mouth in shock.
Clearly disbelieving, the man across, who was about the same age as his brother Rudy, was actually the legendary Lord Dragon!
“Mr. Bruce, I’m sorry, my naive and ignorant granddaughter has offended you. Please forgive her.”
Robin glanced up at the beautiful girl and gave a nonchalant smile, saying, “No harm done, children speak without malice.”
“Who’s child are you talking about?!” Kimberly still didn’t believe it, saying, “Grandpa, you must have mistaken someone else. Is that Lord Dragon really that young? I don’t believe it!”
“Kimberly, don’t be impudent, quickly pay your respects to Mr. Bruce,” Travis said helplessly, his brow furrowed.
Kimberly glanced at Robin, defiantly saying, “You’re about the same age as me, how could you be so impressive? Could it be that you’re just riding on the coattails of your master or family background, and have gained an undeserved reputation?”
“With so many experts in the Hondry Sect, are you sure you could have survived without the help of the Barrett family?”
“Kimberly, no more nonsense!” Travis said, sweating profusely. “If you continue to misbehave, Grandpa will make you leave!”
Seeing that Travis was really angry, Kimberly quickly said, “Yes, Grandpa. I will pay him respect.”
She stepped forward, scrutinizing Robin up close, and casually greeted, “Nice to meet you, Mr. Bruce. Since you’re so formidable, would you dare to compete with me if given the chance?”
Robin ignored her.
Travis stepped forward, shielding her behind him, and said, “Mr. Bruce, my granddaughter has been spoiled by this old man..
Robin said indifferently, “No matter, being genuine is better.”
Then, looking at the shadowy figure ahead and then at Travis, “They’ve arrived. Are you sure you can handle the people from Hondry Sect and Hashville Martial Arts Union?”
Travis’s body shuddered slightly, a determined light shining in his eyes: “For Mr. Bruce, the Barrett family is willing to give it their all.”
Robin nodded, “Alright then!”
Kimberly cast a sidelong glance at Robin, sizing up his young, handsome face, and snorted coldly.
“My grandfather and Mr. Israel were both the most formidable masters. Were they supposed to be afraid of his Hondry Sect? You’ll see the power of the Barrett family in a moment!”
She glanced at Robin’s indifferent expression and continued, “If we beat them, could you please not keep this arrogant attitude, okay?”
“This was a world where power was paramount, back then, you paid me the respect due to an adult!”
“Kimberly, you’re too presumptuous!” Travis, at his wits‘ end with his granddaughter, turned and apologized again, “Mr. Bruce, my granddaughter has been spoiled, I beg you…”
A hint of amusement flashed in Robin’s eyes, “It’s okay, just a little brat.”
“Who are you calling a brat?” Kimberly puffed up her cheeks in anger, glaring at Robin. “Hmph! Just wait, once I make my move, you’ll see what real strength is!”
Kimberly felt indignant when she saw that Robin was no longer paying attention to her.
She clenched her fists, turned towards the crowd coming from the
valley, and said, “Grandfather, I’ll lead the charge. Whoever dares to provoke first, I’ll make sure they won’t return!”
Travis said coldly. “Stop messing around, just stand there and watch!”
Only then did Kimberly pout, standing behind her grandfather, sneakily glancing at the indifferent Robin.
At that moment, Delbert was sitting in a wheelchair, being pushed out from the shadows.
Behind him closely followed the Four Martial Arts Aces, with Sergio, Chester, and several other division heads flanking him on both sides.
“Mr. Bruce, I did not misspeak, I brought the promised 20 billion.” Delbert laughed heartily, saying, “I told you, the Mellor family never owes anyone money!”
“Just, there was one thing, I forgot to tell Mr. Bruce.”
“The money given by the Mellor family wasn’t something just anyone could get their hands on. In other words, whether or not you were fortunate enough to receive these 20 billion depended on whether you could survive and leave Hanrock Peak tonight.”
Travis stepped forward and said, “Delbert, you’re too presumptuous! Do you know who Mr. Bruce is?”
Delbert burst into laughter, “Know, of course I know!”
“The Annihilator who once single–handedly trampled the Hondry Sect, shocking the entire dark underworld, how could I not know?”
“However, those were just legends, who had ever seen them?”
“Tonight, I had the honor of joining forces with the Hondry Sect on behalf of the Hashville Martial Arts Union. We wanted to see for
ourselves whether this legendary Annihilator was all talk or truly lived up to his reputation.”
Travis sneered, “Delbert, wait a moment, you might regret saying that for the rest of your life!”
Delbert burst into laughter, “Travis, are you sure you want to stand with Robin, even if it means making enemies with the Hashville Martial Arts Union and Hondry Sect?”
“Travis, think carefully. If you choose the wrong side, after tonight, the Barrett family will no longer exist in the archaic martial arts community!”
Travis sneered, “Delbert, that statement should be directed at yourself. I’m certain, starting tomorrow, there will be no more Hashville Martial Arts Union and the Mellor family in the martial arts world!”
Delbert shook his head, “Just you few? If my Hashville Martial Arts Union and Hondry Sect join forces, wouldn’t that be too much of a bully?”
“Travis, at this point, there’s no harm in telling you! After all, you won’t survive tonight!”
“The Hondry Sect suddenly attacked Robin this time, with the Dark Lord as their backing! The world’s number one sect, Dark Oath, has already awakened!”
At that moment, from the left side of the valley bottom of Hanrock Peak, seven men with strange appearances emerged again.
Seven men, each with eyes as red as blood.
They were all bare–chested, holding a shiny broadsword in their hands.
These seven people were the legendary Seven Demons.
When Robin decimated the Hondry Sect years ago, the Seven Demons were not at the Hondry Sect headquarters, luckily avoiding a
confrontation with Robin..
After Seven Demons stepped forward, Delbert started laughing, “Travis, do you still have the confidence to confront us? Let me give you a piece of advice, those who want to achieve great things must learn to judge the situation at critical moments. Make the right choice, and you will rise with the wind. But if you choose wrongly, you will be beyond redemption!”
Kimberly didn’t wait for her grandfather to speak, stepping forward and saying. “Old man, I can’t believe you could say such shameless words.”
“As the founder of Hashville Martial Arts Union, the number one martial arts alliance in Londraland, you actually said such a disgraceful thing.”
“Having pledged allegiance to a sinister sect like Dark Oath, you will be shamed by the entire martial arts world!”
“My grandfather would never do such a disgraceful thing!”
Delbert paused for a moment, looking at the sixteen or seventeen–year- old girl standing in front of him.
He laughed in amusement, “Travis, is this your granddaughter? Not bad, the words she speaks have some spirit! However, little girl, I must tell you, the world is not as you imagine it to be. Staying alive is what’s most important! Those who refuse to compromise don’t live long!”
Kimberly pointed at Delbert and continued to scold angrily, “You old fool, only a coward like you would do something disgraceful for the sake of profit. My grandfather and the Barrett family would never be as spineless as you!”
“Today, since the Barrett family chose to stand by Mr. Bruce, they
1531
would live or die with him!”
Upon hearing this, Robin looked up at Kimberly, who was standing fearlessly opposite Delbert, a glint of admiration flashing in his eyes.
Travis also started laughing. “Delbert, I can’t believe you’ve lived all these years only to end up a dog. You’re even worse off than my granddaughter.
“Do you know how I felt about what my granddaughter just said?”
“Tonight, no matter what, with my granddaughter’s words, the Barrett family is worthy of the title of No. 1 archaic martial arts family! My life is worth it! Hahaha…”
“Come on, old man, less talk! Get to it!”
