The Legendary Man Chapter 398

He Must Die Tonight

In an instant, the ear-splitting crack of breaking bones resounded through the air. It was accompanied by Anson’s shrill screams of pain as he lay sprawled out on the ground helplessly. All four of his limbs had been cruelly stomped on and broken by Jonathan.

For his part, Jonathan had an impassive face as he remarked coldly, “I did warn you that I’m only giving you three minutes.”

Yuliana finally sighed deeply in immense relief as she took in this scene from where she stood, a distance away from the pair.

Thank the heavens! Jonathan is all right!

However, just as those thoughts ran through her mind, she suddenly came to her senses and hurriedly rushed over to pull on Jonathan as she said, “Hurry! Let’s go!”

“Where to?” asked Jonathan with a slight frown in confusion.

“Let’s find somewhere to hide and lay low for a start,” replied Yuliana as her head started throbbing rhythmically. She hadn’t expected that things would develop to this extent. Even though assaulting Anson didn’t make for a huge issue, breaking all four of his limbs certainly counted as one. She knew that the Wagner family wouldn’t let Jonathan off that easily for this, and there was little that the Hansley family could do to protect him if they even wanted to.

She continued, “I’ll buy a plane ticket right now so you can leave tonight. If you make haste and travel through the night, I’m sure you’ll manage to get out of Gronga in time. Regardless of how powerful and influential the Wagner family is, there’s nothing they can do to you once you’re out of their reach. They wouldn’t even know where to look to find you!”

With that, Yuliana proceeded to pull out her phone and purchase the flight ticket she had mentioned. However, Jonathan didn’t have the slightest intention of leaving and replied, “You don’t have to get the tickets. I don’t plan to leave.”

“No! You absolutely must go, and the further you go, the better it is! If we delay any further, it may become too late for you to flee!” exhorted Yuliana anxiously as she completely disregarded Jonathan’s response.

“I said I’m not leaving!” Jonathan frowned and repeated himself.

He saw no reason for him to flee this fearfully and desperately from the likes of the Wagner family. In fact, Jonathan never had the thought of escaping even when completely surrounded by an army of thousands back then, let alone when faced with a mere family like the Wagner family. As Asura, he would rather die in battle than bear the shame of fleeing like a coward.
“As long as you remain in Gronga, there’s no way that the Wagner family would let you off!” exclaimed Yuliana anxiously in her panic. However, Jonathan did not share her panic and kept his face calm as he replied in a steady voice, “If that’s the case, I’ll destroy the Wagner family as well!”
Destroy the Wagner family as well?

Yuliana couldn’t help but think that Jonathan was well and truly insane. After all, each of the four prominent families held tremendous sway and influence in Gronga.

“You simply don’t understand just how terrifying the Wagner family’s influence in Gronga is!” replied Yuliana with increasing levels of distress as she shook her head.

From what she knew of the Wagner family’s influence in Gronga, it wouldn’t take more than a half-hour for them to scour the island to find Jonathan. Once that happened, there was no avenue of escape for him, even if he wanted to flee. In fact, the Wagner family didn’t even have to step in personally. All they had to do was issue a bounty for Jonathan’s head, and that would immediately send all the assassins and contract killers on the island on Jonathan’s tail. Without hesitation, they would whiff him out and serve him up in exchange for their reward.

Jonathan continued to gaze at Yuliana calmly and didn’t seem to set much store by her warning. He replied, “Is that so? If they don’t know what’s good for them and insist on coming after me to create trouble for me, I’m afraid that’s when they’ll find out precisely what true terror is!”

With that, Jonathan turned and strode away.
Yuliana saw that he was leaving and frantically asked, “Where are you going?”

It was nigh impossible for Jonathan to escape to a safe haven, especially since he had assaulted the second son of the Wagner family in Gronga and right in front of a watching crowd.

“Don’t bother chasing after him. He won’t care about you,” remarked Cecilia as she blocked Yuliana’s path forward. Then, Cecilia casually recited a series of numbers.
“What?” asked Yuliana in surprise. She was caught off guard by what Cecilia had suddenly said.
“That’s my phone number! Feel free to give me a call if the Wagner family messes with you. Just remember that nothing is insurmountable or unsolvable as long as Mr. Goldstein is here,” declared Cecilia.

The headlines were eye-catching and read: Outlander Brutally Assaults the Wagner Family’s Second Son! The Enraged Wagner Family Commences an Islandwide Manhunt!
Over at one of the hospitals in Gronga, countless reporters gathered on-site and blocked every single entrance. Flashes of light repeatedly struck the eldest son of the Wagner family, Samuel Wagner’s face upon his arrival, but he showed no intention of stopping.
Regardless of how persistent the reporters were, he retained his icy cold expression and pretended as if he hadn’t heard anything.
