The Legendary Man Chapter 1019-Xavion gritted his teeth silently as he watched the rest leave.
“This is bad.”
They had chosen to take the longer route by traveling along the border so the seven other families wouldn’t learn of their arrival.
It was a widely-known fact that the most reputable and esteemed families in the area were often embroiled in power struggles amongst each other, yet they had to be discreet in their dealings in order to prevent any salacious rumors from spreading.
Knowing the truth and seeing the truth would produce different results.
Right now, the Leeson family, the Blackwood family, and the Welsh family had discovered their arrival.
Thus, it was inconvenient for them to take action now.
Most importantly, he was afraid Kimberly and Barnaby would also find out that he was at Delisgar Ridge as there were plenty of witnesses who had laid eyes on him.
Being part of the Osborne family, they would need to tell Kimberly and Barnaby about their arrival at Delisgar Ridge if they wanted to increase their chances of finding Joshua.
However, Xavion and Jonathan decided to come here without informing Everett beforehand.
They were obviously here for Kimberly and Barnaby.
Xavion’s gaze landed on Jonathan, who was standing not far away from him. He finally made up his mind.
“Jonathan, I’ll need your help.”
“What do you mean?” Jonathan asked with his brows furrowed.
Xavion briefly explained the situation to him. “Our initial plan was to assassinate our target secretly, but you’ll have to do it openly now.”
Upon hearing Xavion’s words, Jonathan gave a brief nod.
He was indifferent to whether the task had to be done discreetly or in an overt manner.
No matter the outcome, he was destined to bear the brunt of the blame for the killing of Kimberly and Barnaby as that was part of their plan.
Jonathan contemplated for a short moment as he glanced at his phone.
“According to your guess, the Leesons, Welshes, and Blackwoods will be able to effectively spread the word that we are currently in Delisgar Ridge within the next thirty minutes. Upon receiving this news, the Osborne family’s intelligence network will intercept it and quickly relay it to Everett, alerting Kimberly and Barnaby about our presence. At this point, they will be on their guard and have likely moved from their current location. We are currently around two hundred miles away from them, so there won’t be enough time. However, they will still need some time to react to the news, so if we head there now, even if they have already left, they won’t be far away. We can still make it.”
As soon as he finished his sentence, Jonathan sprinted straight toward Doveston without hesitation.
Behind him, Xavion swiped a hand across his head.
His long hair was chopped off, and he now sported a crew cut.
Xavion glanced at the hair on his palm. He shook his hand slightly, and his hair started burning.
He then retrieved a black mask that was an exact replica of the one worn by the Dark Special Forces of Asura’s Office and slowly put it on.
They were now going to take action in the open, so he wouldn’t have to hold back anymore.
As long as he kept the mask on, his enemies were powerless against him, unable to exact revenge or retribution even if they realized his true identity.
Kimberly and Barnaby, I cannot bring myself to show you the kindness I would to other relatives, knowing that your father was cruel enough to harm his own family. It pains me to say this, but I must make sure to eliminate your family branch.
Back at Redlington’s temporary military base, Aidan, Alexander, Avery, and Vicador, had gathered in a tent. Aidan was the commander of the Medved Army, and Alexander was his Chief of Staff. Avery was the commander of the Arctic Army, while Vicador was his consultant. All four of them were gazing intently at the elderly man sitting in the main seat before them.
The elderly man was none other than Ivanov.
In the middle was a large table with a big display screen showing the map of Horbah, which was situated to the south of Redlington.
“You all understood what I said, right?” Ivanov asked calmly.
“Yes!” Aidan and the rest replied loudly.
