Chapter 463: Ladies making moves
Terrence’s expression darkened. “Where is she?”“I have no idea.” Alistair said with a shrug causing Terrence to glare at him. “Don't push me, Mister Reid. I have been given authority to do whatever I want to you to get the information I need. Now, unless you want me to get the best torture expert in the state in this room just for you, I'd advise you to start talking.”Alistair leaned back slightly in the metal chair, the dim red light from the flickering bulb reflecting off his pristine, golden-tinted eyes. His posture remained effortless and majestic, completely untouched by the damp, oppressive atmosphere of the interrogation room."A torture expert?" Alistair asked, his voice soft and smooth, echoing with a quiet, terrifying resonance. "You speak of pain as if it is a currency you control, Captain Terrence. How remarkably shortsighted."Terrence slammed his fist onto the iron desk, the metal screeching under the force as he leaned forward, his face inches from Alistair’s."You
Chapter 462: The reason for his arrest
"Isabella!" Elizabeth spoke the moment the line connected, her voice trembling with restrained fury. "They just took Master Reid!""What?" Isabella Heart’s sharp, commanding voice cut through the speaker, instantly alert. "Who took him?""It was the military—the Seventy-Second Division!" Elizabeth reported, her eyes burning with resolve as she looked at the wooden box of silver needles resting on the passenger seat. "They claimed he was colluding with terrorists!"A heavy, dangerous silence hung on the other end of the line before Isabella let out an icy breath."The Seventy-Second Division belongs to General Andre Lucario… does this mean the Lucario family are involved with the Elite World Group?” Isabella muttered.“We have to do something before Master Reid is harmed. I know we don't usually see eye to eye but we need to work together.” Elizabeth said.“I understand. I think I understand why Master Reid was picked up. Meet me at Adam Smith's manor. We'll discuss our next course of
Chapter 461: Arrested by the military
Elizabeth nodded before proceeding to maintain her focus on the needle. Satisfied with this, Alistair got to his feet, intending to head inside to brew some tea for both of them. However, just then, he paused, his expression shifting as he sensed something approaching. The next moment, several military trucks literally broke down the villa gates, rushing into the compound.The sudden noise naturally shattered Elizabeth's concentration, frightening her greatly. Alistair frowned as he could tell that something was wrong. Just then, armed military men rushed out and got into position, aiming their guns at Alistair.Elizabeth could hardly understand what was going as her breath hitched.“Master Reid, what's happening?” She asked.“I have no idea.” Alistair replied, unsure of what to make of the current situation.At that moment, the one Alistair could only presume was leading these military men stepped out and approached Alistair. “Are you Alistair Reid?” the man gruffly asked.“I a
Chapter 460: First class
"I ran into some arrogant individuals at the cafe," Elizabeth explained, her tone clear and measured. "A young man named Long Tian, who claimed to represent the six righteous sects. He... demanded that I join him for tea. When I declined, he tried to enforce his will."Alistair picked up the lacquer box, unlatching it to inspect the fragrant green tea leaves inside.A faint, cold glint flickered deep within his golden eyes, subtle as a shadow, yet heavy as a mountain."Long Tian? And he claims to be a member of the Righteous sects," Alistair murmured smoothly. "It would seem I was wrong to expect decency from representatives of the righteous sects.”"Master Xie intervened before things escalated further," Elizabeth added. "Though I suspect that young man is not accustomed to hearing the word 'no'.""Fools rarely are," Alistair said, placing the tea box aside. "Set aside the tea for now, Elizabeth. Did you bring the box with the silver needles I gave you yesterday?”Elizabeth nodded. “
Chapter 459: A bully in fancy clothes
Long Tian stared down at his twitching hand in sheer disbelief before glaring at Master Xie, his eyes burning with intense humiliation and rage. "You old dog! You dare strike an envoy of the six sects for the sake of a common mortal?!""Brother Long, let me cut him down!" the female disciple from the Ice Queen Palace hissed, pulling a translucent, frost-covered thin-sword from her scabbard."Stop! All of you, stop!" Elder Zhao finally yelled, practically throwing himself between the two sides.Sweat dripped down his brow as he bowed frantically to Long Tian, his hands trembling. "Young Master Long, please! I beg of you, do not act recklessly here! That young lady is Miss Elizabeth Bolton—and more importantly, she is an acquaintance of the noble Senior who single-handedly suppressed the demonic threat in Haven!"The declaration hung in the air like a falling anvil.Long Tian’s eyes narrowed slightly, though his pride prevented him from showing any sign of retreat.He thought Elder Zhao
Chapter 458: Invitation to tea?
"Oh, my apologies," Elizabeth said quickly, offering a polite, brief nod. "I wasn't paying attention."She moved to step past them, but the young man didn't move.Long Tian stood in the doorway, his eyes fixed entirely on Elizabeth.The condescending sneer he had worn since arriving in Haven vanished, replaced by an intense, calculating gaze.As a martial artist of the Heavenly King Martial Sect, his spiritual perception immediately picked up on the crystal-clear resonance surrounding her.Her soul was untainted by the mundane filth of the mortal world—a pristine, radiant vessel.A natural, flawless spirit body, Long Tian thought, a spark of possessive greed igniting behind his eyes.Though she was currently just a mortal with an unsealed dantian, if her cultivation were awakened and nurtured with high-grade spiritual pills, she would become an unprecedented furnace for dual cultivation. For someone at his level, absorbing the refined Yin energy of a pure soul could easily push him p
