The Legendary Man novel Chapter 493

Chapter 493 You Will Be Spared

It took only one day for the Intelligence Bureau of Hayes’ subordinates to determine the exact location of the place shown in the photo. They identified it as the Grand Forest Resort.

The moment they received the location, Jonathan ordered Hayes to get his men to rush to Grand Forest Mountain immediately. Jonathan, Hayes, and Xiara took the Audi because it was faster. They arrived at the resort in less than four hours.

Just as Jonathan and his group got out of the car, the valet in the courtyard called out, “Guests here! Hit the drum!”

Boom!

Boom! Boom!

Three loud sounds of a gong rang out. One of them was slow, and the other two were quicker.

Not far away, a middle-aged man dressed in a long robe, wearing a small hat and sunglasses walked out swiftly. He looked like a modern fortune teller.

“Welcome, welcome. Please excuse us for our lack of hospitality.”

Jonathan frowned as he looked at the fortune teller. He reached out for Xiara’s tablet.

“Are these photos taken here?”

The fortune teller met different kinds of people on a daily basis as he greeted people who came to the resort. Some of them could be quite difficult to deal with.

However, it was the first time he met someone like Jonathan and Hayes.

Standing at one hundred and ninety centimeters tall and weighing over two hundred pounds, Hayes gave off a vicious and imposing vibe.

Seeing such a situation, that fortune teller dared not say much. Instead, he took over the tablet and looked through the photos.

“Well…”

After perusing the photos, the fortune teller looked up with hesitation.

“May I know who are you?”

“It seems like we have come to the right place.” Jonathan chuckled and continued, “That’s good then. I want to meet the person who is in charge of this place.”

“Sure. Please hold on,” said the fortune teller as he nodded. After that, he turned around and walked away.

“I’m referring to the owner of this place,” Jonathan repeated himself. The fortune teller paused in his tracks momentarily before he quickened his steps and went into the same hut.

“Mr. Goldstein, why are you wasting your time with them? If you ask me, none of the prestigious families is as powerful as the weapons we have,” mumbled Hayes.

Before Jonathan could say anything, Xiara broke out in laughter.

“How do you become Tiger and the King of Lumonburg?”

“What do you mean by that?” asked Hayes coldly.

“I think you’re being silly,” said Xiara with a chuckle as she sat on the swing. “Although I don’t know much about prominent families, I witnessed Philip’s way of handling things with my own eyes last night. When he was imprisoned by the Osborne family for a year and a half, he was forced to learn martial arts. That explains his achievement. Even if you choose to ignore Philip’s talents or the fact that regular folks can engage in cultivation, how many martial artists do you think a family who has been around for thousands of years can cultivate? I know Philip is already dead. But if your best soldier has gone against him, I promise you that your best soldier would have died long before he can take his aim. I have witnessed all of these with my own eyes. As for the higher-level martial artists, there’s no way I can figure out the exact data using the usual logic.”

During the last line, Xiara found herself looking at Jonathan.

At the moment, Jonathan was shaking his head slightly.

“What Xiara says is correct, but she isn’t completely right. Most martial artists are strong. But when faced with an assault from a large force, even I cannot make it out alive. The use of weapons is common in the modern era, and that is a fact that even history cannot change. My biggest worry is when all the prominent families join forces. Anyway, both of you won’t understand no matter how much I share with you. All you need to know is that you are given the freedom to do as you like this time around. Since we have decided to fight, we must fight without any fear or hesitation. We must let our enemies know that they have to pay the price for offending me!”

“As you wish, Mr. Goldstein!”

Xiara hopped off the swing and grinned at Jonathan. She then saw Hayes sneering at her. “Stop acting so coquettishly…”

Jonathan could not be bothered with their petty bickering. Instead, he focused his attention on that small hut in front of him.

The fortune teller appeared again, albeit with a much calmer demeanor.
