Chapter 365 Challenged

“How did it go, Leonardo? Did Venicus say when he is going to start working on the longevity pill?” Zachariah anxiously asked Leonardo.

“Mr. Jantz, Master Venicus said he will work on it once you get the herbs he wanted for Crescent Sect ready,” Leonardo reported.

“What the f*ck! He is not about to cut us any slack, is he?” Zachariah couldn’t help but swear. “When would those herbs be ready?” he asked with concern.

“The herbs they asked for are all rare and precious herbs. Not to mention the prices are exorbitant! I have tried to bargain with Herb Palace on numerous occasions but they simply would not budge on the price. That order is going to cost more than ten million, Mr. Jantz,” Leonardo complained in exasperation.

Zachariah went into deep thought for a moment, then said, “Encash all the liquid assets we have. Also, sell off all the assets of the Whitaker family. I must get the herbs for Crescent Sect.”

“Yes, Mr. Jantz!” Leonardo nodded.

Zachariah was adamant about getting his hands on the longevity pill. To him, his health was a top priority. After all, he knew he could always make more money again so long as he had his health.

“Mr. Jantz. We have a problem!” Just then, one of the servants came running in and shouted in distress.

“Stop shouting. Don’t you know it’s the middle of the night now? Calm down and tell me what’s going on,” Leonardo chided the servant.

The servant was shivering in fear and cried out, “Two of our men are dead, Mr. Jantz! They are left at the entrance! Please come and take a look!”

Zachariah was enraged by the news. The Jantz family had established themselves in Summerbank for decades and never had anyone done such an outrageous thing to them. It was unthinkable that someone had the guts to kill his men and openly leave their bodies right at his doorstep.

Zachariah, together with Leonardo, rushed to the entrance of the house and found that their guards were already there, searching and watching out for further dangers.
