The Invincible Mercenary King (by Matt Watt) novel Chapter 148

Chapter 148 

Hearing Perry’s words, Noah flew into a rage and scolded, “Perry, are you crazy? 

“It was because of that woman that you suffered so much. Now, you finally have a chance to begin a new life. Why do you. still want to look for that woman?” 

“Noah, don’t say that. Ashlee and I are truly in love. It was Hugh’s nephew, that bastard, who took her away from me.” Perry gritted his teeth, his eyes filled with hatred. 

“Perry, why are you so obsessed with her? 

“That woman caused all of us to be in such a miserable state. You can’t see her anymore.” 

Perry’s parents were also trying to persuade Perry, and their faces were filled with disappointment. 

Perry’s expression turned gloomy after being scolded by his family and Noah. In the end, he said weakly. “She had been by my side for so long, and she was the person I’ve loved with all my heart. I just want to meet her and bid farewell to my youth. 

“Noah, didn’t you go to your first love’s wedding and watch from afar? 

“I just want to watch Ashlee from afar.” 

Hearing that, Noah fell silent. 

He never wanted to experience the pain and sorrow of saying goodbye to the person he loved the most in his life again. 

“Alright, I’ll help you with that. I’ll go find her tomorrow. If there’s a chance, I’ll bring you to see her,” Haylan said. 

“Haylan, thank you.” Perry’s eyes were filled with joy as he held Haylan’s hand tightly. 

Perry and Ashlee were truly in love. When they were together, he could feel Ashlee’s love for him. 

It was just because Hugh’s nephew interfered and snatched Ashlee away. 

Perry had a fantasy that Ashlee still loved him. 

Therefore, he wanted to meet Ashlee and give it 

a try. 

Haylan chatted with Perry and Noah for a while. After comforting them, he left with Lucy, Simon, and the others. 

After leaving the villa and the sight of Perry’s and Noah’s family, Lucy asked, “Haylan, do you really want to go against Hugh?” 

“Mr. Jaber, think twice before you act. If you challenge Hugh, it’s equivalent to challenging Robert. With Robert’s personality, he might kill you and destroy your family,” Simon said with a solemn expression. 

Although Lucy and Simon came from large families that owned deep foundations, 

However, Robert and the Four Kings were not to be trifled with. They did many shady things and controlled a lot of 

resources. 

Especially in the entertainment industry, Robert had almost monopolized half of the resources in Lightdom City. 

All kinds of entertainment venues such as KTV, bars, game centers, and so on, were all under Robert, and the profits were astronomical 

Although Robert usually kept a low profile and did not run his business in person, if he stood up and fought a certain force to the end, the four major families in Lightdom City would probably have a headache. It was likely that they would never be 

able to win. 

If Haylan were to go against such a formidable person, it would be no different from a mantis trying to stop a chariot and courting death 

“I’ve sent Hugh a challenge.” 

Haylan hit a cigarette and took a puff. He said calmly, “Now, it depends on what Hugh is going to do. If he wants to negotiate with me, it will be the best 

“If he wants to fight me head–on…” 

Haylan blew out a puff of smoke, and his eyes turned extremely cold. “I promise that he will die miserably!” 

As Sovereign of Shadows, even if Haylan didn’t expose his identity, he still had a hundred ways to kill Hugh. 

Not to mention Hugh, even if it was Robert. Haylan wouldn’t be afraid 

Upon hearing Haylan’s words, Lucy and Sumon looked at each other and saw the shock and confusion in each other’s eyes. 

“Alright. Thank you for your help today.”

Chapter 148 

With a cigarette in his mouth. Haylan took out a piece of paper and a pen. He wrote down a remedy and handed it to Simon. “Mr. Kwen, I’ll give you a remedy to improve your current condition in return. As long as you drink the decoction on time, I guarantee that you can have fun every night.” 

Then, Haylan wrote down another remedy and handed it to Lucy. “Miss Zabel, I met your father last time. He is not in good health Give this remedy to your father and take the decoction on time. In three days, he’ll be even more energetic. 

“I’ll rely on you to protect my two old friends. Thank you.” 

With that, Haylan left Zabel Village in a carefree manner. 

Simon put away the remedy carefully. Looking at Haylan’s back, he frowned and said. “Can you tell what Haylan meant?” 

Lacy held the remedy and nodded. “Yes, Mr. Jaber doesn’t seem to take Robert seriously.” 

With that, Simon and Lucy looked at each other and were more confused in their hearts. 

“Robert is born in a martial arts family. He is powerful and is at least god–class. Moreover, the Four Kings under him are lord–class, and it’s said that one of them is half–step god–class and is comparable to Landon from the Labenz family.” Simon’s gaze was solemn as he said, “Robert has been developing his forces in Lightdom City for more than 50 years, which are complicated and deeply rooted. The resources owned by him are immeasurable.. 

“To a certain extent. Robert is from the real top family in Lightdom City and is the undisputed uncrowned king of Lightdom City. 

“Even if the Labenz family joined hands with the Zabel family, they might not be able to take down a big shot like Robert! 

“Why is Mr. Jaber so confident and bold?” 

Lucy remained silent after hearing that. 

Simon was right. Robert controlled countless resources in Lightdom City, and the number of people who followed Robert to do business was no less than twenty thousand. Robert was a true peerless big shot. 

Even Lucy’s father, Shawn, had to be polite to Robert and did not dare to offend him easily. 

One was an army of thousands of soldiers and horses.
