Chapter 979
“Why is in like this? Robert thought. Is Haylan that strong?
Robert fell to the ground. His face was pale, and his lips were trembling. He was overwhelined with doubt and uncertainty.
He knew Justin particularly well. He knew that Justin came from the Bennett family, which was the super aristocratic family in Ulinas. Justin was definitely a relative of the royal family
influential
On the other hand, Robert was just a lowly servant who came from the Bennett family. Over the years, he had leveraged soine of the prestige associated with the Bennett family to thrive in Lightdom City.
When he met Justin, he felt as if there was a huge dragon hidden in Justin’s body. Justin’s strength was immensely powerful and terrifying. His ability was unfathomable.
He knew that the Bennett family had invested countless resources in Justin This was the reason Justin had been nurtured to have such formidable strength.
“But after Justin confronted Haylan, he actually ended up being struck with such force that he became mentally impaired?” Robert thought
This incident indirectly proved one thing. Haylan was far more formidable than he had imagined.
After a short moment of shock and fear, Robert suddenly snapped back to reality. He slowly smoked his cigarette and his body stopped trembling.
As a powerful and ambitious person, he had to remain calm no matter how terrifying the situation was.
It was only by doing so that there was a chance of survival.
Robert smoked and frowned. He thought, “Xander just said that some things can never be said. Could that be Haylan’s warning to me?”
He frowned and pondered for a long time.
In the end, he still could not figure out what had happened. He only knew one thing. He could not meddle in the matters involving Haylan any longer.
In fact, he could not even say a word about it.
“What has Haylan experienced in the past eight years?” Robert said. “Why does he suddenly become so powerful?
“What does he plan to do by issuing such a warning to me?
“Or is he plotting something?”
Robert’s pupils constricted intensely. He was extremely shocked.
As an experienced figure in the realm of the martial world, he not only recognized the warning from Xander but also sensed something beyond the warning issued by Haylan.
As soon as he thought of this, he broke out in a cold sweat. He immediately took out his phone and called Blade King of Northern Deseret and the others. In a solemn tone, he said, “Quick, pack my stuff immediately. I want to leave Lightdom City and vacation abroad for a period of time.”
“Mr. Bard, now that Steve is about to be crowned king, you’re going on a vacation?” Blade King of Northern Deseret said. He was astonished at the other end of the line..
Steve getting crowned king meant there would be tremendous opportunities.
If he were to leave now, wouldn’t it mean that he would miss out on everything?
Moreover, it was highly likely that it would leave a very unfavorable impression on Steve
“Mind your own business, Robert reproached in a commanding tone. “In any case, I’m going overseas for a vacation now. Help me pack my things.”
Blade King of Northern Deseret had no choice but to oblige and send people to pack Robert’s stuff.
While Robert was sitting on a bench in the hospital, he raised his head and looked at the sky. He muttered. “Lightdom City is about to undergo a major upheaval!”
The news of Justin becoming mentally impaired could not be concealed. Once it spread to the Bennett family, they would definitely confront Robert and demand an explanation from him with regard to Justin’s condition. They might even meet Steve and ask him to find out the real culprit that caused Justin to be mentally impaired.
Justin was beaten in Steve’s territory, so Steve was answerable for the incident.
Moreover, Haylan knew the outcome would be like this, yet he still chose to inflict such harm on Justin. This meant that Haylan was playing a bigger game and Justin was likely just a pawn in his grand scheme.
