Chapter 76: Banned from the Beggar's Sect
“Please, it won't happen again. Just spare me this once.” Conan pleaded. “Be grateful that you are still a member of the Beggar's Sect. Otherwise, you would already be a corpse.” Alistair calmly said. The Beggar's Sect had a rule that killing a member of their organization would be considered the same as killing the organization itself.And the punishment for such an act would be excommunication.No member of the Beggar's Sect would ever accept requests from the killer and they would be isolated from all information.Of course, even if they wanted to, the Beggar's Sect couldn't possibly punish Alistair if he went ahead to kill Conan.After all, he was the Shadow Emperor of Arcadia.But Alistair respected them and so, respected their rules as well.There was no need to force the sect to break their rules when they could adequately punish Conan in his place.With that in mind, Alistair shoved Conan away, causing the latter to crash to the ground. Just then, Beggar John walked up to A
Chapter 75: A disgrace to the Beggar's Sect
“What?” Beggar John glanced at Benjamin. “Is this true?”“Of course not, master! Why would I do such a thing? This bastard is lying!” Benjamin immediately tried to defend himself. Pursing his lips, Beggar John glanced at Alistair. “Mr. Reid, are you sure you aren't mistaken?”“What do you think caused the conflict you stumbled upon?”Beggar John could hardly believe his ears. Turning to Benjamin, he coldly remarked. “You'd best tell me the truth right now, otherwise, if I investigate and I find out the truth myself, I will make sure you suffer until your death.” Terrified, Benjamin didn't dare to hide anything.The Beggar's Sect was known to be masters at gathering information. As a disciple of the sect, he knew more than anyone how incredible they were at gathering information.So hiding anything from his master would only put him in more trouble.With no other choice, Benjamin could only tell the truth.“I asked for a visitation fee, but that's only because I thought he was a sc
Chapter 74: A greedy disciple
Benjamin and Conan froze while Alistair glanced in the direction of the one who spoke.It turned out to be a middle-aged man in a dirty Chinese robe. He seemed like a beggar one would see on the street, but his eyes were filled with wisdom, and his posture made it clear that he was a martial arts expert. It was none other than Beggar John, one of the leaders of the Beggar's Sect in Haven. “Master, how come you are out here? I thought you were meditating?” Benjamin said, trying hard to hide his panic.Beggar John snorted. “You knew I was meditating yet you allowed people to be making noise out here.”“Sorry, master, it's honestly not my fault. A fool came in here seeking trouble so I asked Conan to come and remove him before he made a mess.”“Who would be so bold as to come into the Beggar's Sect and cause trouble?” Beggar John asked.“You don't have to worry, master. I'll handle everything, just head inside for now.” Benjamin said. Ignoring him, Beggar John looked around only for
Chapter 73: Throwing weight around
“I understand that you are stepping out of line,” Alistair remarked. “So, get back in line.”“Enough!” Benjamin flared up at this moment, unable to stay silent any longer.Glaring at Alistair, he remarked. “How dare you insult Mr. Carter? Don't you have any manners?”“Since when did demanding the right thing become insulting?” Alistair asked back. Alistair's response infuriated Benjamin even further as he pointed at him. “You'd best shut your mouth and sit back down right now otherwise, don't blame me for what happens next!”“And if I don't?” Alistair asked, taking a step forward instead. Seeing this, Benjamin nodded his head. “Good, very good. From this moment, you are banned from the Beggar's Sect!”Then, he ordered the martial artists at the door. “Guards! Kick this fool out right now!” “Understood!” As the guards responded, they walked up to Alistair to do as instructed.Meanwhile, Benjamin turned his attention back to Louis, already thinking that Alistair was done for.“Mr. C
Chapter 72: An arrogant receptionist
Alistair took the elevator to the next floor, quickly coming across a reception, along with a door guarded by two security men who were clearly martial artists.Seemingly trying to intimidate Alistair, they released their spiritual pressure at the same time, but Alistair casually shrugged it off as he approached the receptionist, who was a young man wearing a Chinese robe. He had the name tag, Benjamin. “I'm here to speak with Beggar John. Is he available?” Alistair asked.The receptionist, Benjamin, raised his head to regard Alistair with a rather arrogant and haughty look in his eyes. After seeing the simple clothes that Alistair was wearing, Benjamin muttered almost dismissively.“Beggar John is busy.”“When will he be free?” Alistair asked.“He is busy now but if you can pay a 10 thousand dollars visitation fee, I can see what I can do for you,” Benjamin remarked. Alistair furrowed his brows.The Beggar's Sect only ever charged money for information shared.And the money wasn'
Chapter 71: A fake drug
Sara's lips quivered. “We?”“Yeah, listen, I made a mistake so this is me trying to resolve it. I want Connor Group to help me produce the drugs and also handle marketing and sales as well. As for how we'll split it, we can go with a 70/30 split. You take 70 and I take 30, especially since you'll be handling everything else. Sorry, I'm dropping everything on you.”“You see Gerard! We didn't need that useless Alistair Reid at all.” Jocelyn said excitedly. “All we need is Tristan and now we are about to enter a period of generational wealth!”“Exactly, Dad! This is absolutely going to transform our family.” Mira said. “Sis, you absolutely have to marry Tristan. I won't take no for an answer!” Lucas remarked as well. Meanwhile, Sara remained silent, struggling to accept what was happening.Noticing this, Tristan asked. “Is everything okay, Sara?”Sniffling, Sara shook her head. “No, it's just… Thank you so much, Tristan. I honestly don't know what I'd do without you.”“Heh, what are fr
