Chapter 898
Upon seeing this, the expert with the meteor hammer and the one carrying two sabers had a drastic change in their expressions as they quickly looked toward Lennon’s body.
However, their cars were moving at a high speed and had already distanced themselves far away from the man’s corpse, making it impossible to see.
After Lennon had died, the drones in the sky lost control and crashed to the ground, shattering into pieces.
“Carson, how did Lennon die?” The expert with the meteor hammer asked with a grave expression.
“Don’t ask me. How am I supposed to know?”
Carson stared ahead, a hint of extreme dread flashing in his eyes. He said in a deep voice, “Randall, I have a feeling that it would be dangerous to catch up. We might end up following in Lennon’s footsteps.”
“Why don’t we stop chasing, then?”
Randall’s expression changed when he heard that.
They were both god–class experts with formidable strength. After practicing for so long, their spiritual strength was stronger than others.
After witnessing Lennon’s death, they instinctively felt the threat of death.
If the opponent was strong, then so be it!
Yet what was the most terrifying was that the opponent’s strength was unknown!
The unknown was the most frightening.
After a brief moment of contemplation, Randall’s expression turned somber as he voiced his concern, “But if we were to return in this manner, how do we justify our actions to our superiors? You’re well aware of the severe consequences imposed by the Radiant Society for defying their commands.”
Hearing this, Carson’s expression changed.
The two exchanged a glance, both seeing the dilemma in each other’s eyes.
In fact, they were both members of the Radiant Society, sent to seize Lawrence’s life on orders.
Now that Lennon had died, both of them sensed the danger ahead. If they pursued, it was very likely that they would die.
Yet if they did not, they would certainly be punished by the Radiant Society’s president when they returned.
In other words, they were caught in a dilemma!
After a minute of silence, Carson suddenly made a decision and said in a deep voice, “Slow down, turn around! Let’s go back!”
Going back would only result in punishment, but it would not cost them their lives.
The extent of Haylan’s strength remained an enigma, and given the natural surveillance, meaning the owl in the sky, it was clear that their every move would be observed by their intended target.
Meanwhile, they were acutely aware that their current level of power was insufficient to eliminate Haylan.
Upon hearing the order, the car gradually slowed down.
Seeing this, Randall immediately ordered his driver to decelerate as well.
The two cars then swiftly turned around, speeding away.
“Carson, if we just go back, will we…”
“Stop worrying about that. Our lives are more important. Besides, we have to go back and handle Lennon’s body.”
In the front, inside the bulletproof car, Haylan stood tall on the top of the car, his gaze cold as he glanced back and said indifferently, “Glad you know your limits. I just can’t be bothered to deal with you.”
Then, he looked ahead, his gaze seemingly spanning several miles, toward the ambush of those few individuals in front. Only moments ago, Leonard had disclosed the precise location of the ambush involving the four god–class experts.
