Chapter 320 Friends
District 9 in Paradise Settlement had always been a gray area.
Even the tribunal committee turned a blind eye to the chaos in District 9.
“Mr. Lockwood, District 9 is not a good choice. There are countless street hustlers there. Even if I give you the right to rule, I’m afraid you won’t be able to do justice to it.”
“After all, it’s not Dawton City, but Mystical Island,” he added.
Draxton said, “Whether I can do justice to it or not is my business. Now, it depends on whether Mr. Duncan is willing to use the entire District 9 to exchange for Cecilia’s life.”
Julian fell into deep thought.
At the same time, Grey raised his saber high and slashed down like lightning.
Cecilia’s eyes were about to pop out of their sockets. She crossed her arms in front of her and closed her eyes tightly. Her eyes were filled with despair.
As the saber fell, the blood-red snake that had been coiled around Cecilia’s wrist like a blood-jade bracelet actually quickly jumped up and faced the saber.
Clang!
The small snake collided with the saber, producing a metallic sound.
The saber was actually bounced up by the small snake.
However, the saber was superior after all. The small snake was split into two and died tragically on the spot.
Meanwhile, Grey could not help but retreat slightly, dodging the little snake’s final attack.
The little snake’s head bit toward Grey.
Grey dodged. The little snake was finally dead.
Cecilia watched as her favorite snake king she had raised for half her life died tragically. She vomited a mouthful of blood in pain and almost passed out.
A cold light flashed in Grey’s eyes. He sneered. “Miss Grey indeed has something to offer. I’d like to see what other tricks you can pull out of your hat.”
He slashed at Cecilia again.
Cecilia got up and fled.
At this moment, a loud shout suddenly sounded. “Wait a moment!!”
The person who shouted was Julian. Grey curled up the corners of his lips. He was completely unmoved and did not stop moving.
“Grey!” Draxton said calmly.
Grey immediately put his saber away.
He turned around and saw Draxton and the others arrive.
“The game is over,” Draxton said.
Grey and the others were stunned at first, but in the blink of an eye, they looked at Cecilia with even more sympathy and returned to Draxton and Isabella.
If Cecilia died under their blade today, it would be over.
However, their patriarch just had to end the game.
After the game ended, it was hard to say what would be waiting for Cecilia
Julian quickly walked toward Cecilia.
He held Cecilia protectively in his arms. However, Cecilia looked at him angrily and turned to leave.
Julian hurriedly chased after her. “Celia, don’t be angry. I can’t do anything about what happened today.”
But in the end, Cecilia left.
All these years, she had been spoiled by Julian. She could not stand Julian’s indulgence at all.
He allowed her to be forced to accept this game.
Cecilia left with Clan Mobius’s people in the car.
Julian stayed where he was and looked at Draxton and Isabella with a bitter smile.
“Looks like Celia has returned to Mystical Island Celia is the eldest daughter of the Grey family. If she complains, I can’t do anything,” he said.
“Mr. Lockwood, Miraculous Doctor, we’re heading to Mystical Island now. I’ll invite you there as guest elders. I hope the two of you will do me the honor.”
Isabella and Draxton looked at each other in tacit agreement.
Julian smiled “Since the two of you agree, we’re now partners.”
He handed over the plaques symbolizing the identities of guest elders of the tribunal committee to Isabella
and Draxton.
The next day, they headed to Mystical Island.
The helicopter stopped above a flat area in the slums of Mystical Island.
Hector carried Betty down the elevator.
