But, why is she instinctively protecting him...
Cain became even more infuriated. “Erwen, we're getting married soon. How dare you protect another man in front of me... I'll settle the score with you after we're married! All of you, ignore Erwen and kill him now! As the Saint of Black Muraco, I'm commanding you to attack him!”
All eight of the bodyguards in black charged toward Zeke instantly.
At that moment, Erwen was still protecting Zeke. Yet, the latter instantly rushed in front of her.
Zeke kicked the pebbles under his feet, and all of them shot toward all the men.
The eight of them were hit before they instantly fell to the ground, screaming in pain. Clearly, they could not fight anymore.
Zeke's gaze fell upon Cain once again. “Is that all you've got? How embarrassing.”
Cain's body stiffened when he heard the threatening words.
He immediately shouted at the bodyguards, “Let's go. Get me out of here right now!”
All the bodyguards helped Cain up before they beat a hasty retreat.
Right now, Zeke's top priority was to see the clan leader and get the antidote. He had no time to waste on Cain.
After everything was settled, Sole Wolf would clean up the mess for him. By then, he would judge the situation.
Cain started yelling at Zeke from afar. “You just wait! All of you! I will never let you off the hook! White Muraco Clan, let me warn you. Send Erwen and that jerk's head to Black Muraco Clan by tonight. Otherwise, your clan will be exterminated.”
Erwen and Yazmin did not hear Cain at all as they were still in utter shock.
Zeke's tactic was unbelievable.
Not only was he an expert in black magic, but he also successfully avoided thousands of poisonous worm traps. He was extremely strong.
Moreover, he had defeated eight burly men with merely a kick.
Apart from admiration and desire for the man, Yazmin's eyes were filled with mesmerization. This man is so strong. He's my man.
Zeke then walked toward the third floor, where the clan leader was at.
“Wait!” Yazmin hurriedly stopped him. “May I know your name?”
“Zeke Williams!” Zeke replied.
“That's a name with a great personality. You were too reckless. Do you know that you've caused huge trouble?” Yazmin questioned.
Zeke instantly halted his steps. “If you're going to stop me from seeing the clan leader, I'd advise you to not waste your time.”
Yazmin quickly said, “I won't stop you from seeing him, but I have to tell you something. Cain is from the Black Muraco Clan. The clan is extremely powerful, many times more powerful than the White Muraco Clan. Throughout the years, their clan has been bullying our clan. Now, they're even planning to marry Holy Maiden, and we dare not reject them. I admit that you're strong, but you can't fight all of them alone. Could you defeat the entire White Muraco Clan alone? We can't defeat Black Muraco Clan, let alone you.”
Erwen nodded in agreement. “Yazmin is right. You'd better leave now if you want to stay alive.”
Zeke asked probingly, “If I run now, wouldn't the Black Muraco Clan vent their anger on your clan?”
Erwen then replied, “If I marry Cain, he won't do anything to the White Muraco Clan.”
In a matter-of-fact tone, Zeke said, “I started this, so I'll take on the responsibility to deal with them. Certainly, I'll investigate your clan before I give you any punishment.”
Yazmin became anxious. “So, you're here to investigate Village of Livestock? Are you an official?”
Zeke answered, “Investigation on Village of Livestock is not the priority. I'm investigating something out of your reach.”
He was investigating Secret Realm of Mount Kush.
Muraco was only colluding with Netherworld to build Village of Livestock. The people did not even know about the Kush Clan, let alone the Secret Realm of Mount Kush.
