Chapter 620 Three Free Shots
Jonathan turned toward Lauryn and asked, “Colton Blackwood? Is he a family member of yours? Why is he looking for you here?”
Lauryn, too, froze in shock when she heard what Harry said.
“He’s my cousin. How does he know I’m here, though? I may have suggested to my father that we back out of the scheme against Asura’s Office, but he’d never tell anyone about it. If he did, I’d have been captured and locked up before I could even leave the house!” she exclaimed in confusion after a brief pause.
Even so, they couldn’t just ignore Colton since he was already here. “Come on, let’s go have a look,” Jonathan said as he stood up and began walking down the mountain.
At least twenty soldiers were lying on the ground outside the front door of Edenic Heights. Their guns had all been disassembled and tossed aside. Over a hundred soldiers had their guns pointed at a young man with glasses and a handheld fan in his hand.
He was wearing a suit and looked particularly sharp with that penetrating gaze in his eyes. In his hand was a half-open fan with random-looking ink patterns on it. That man was none other than Lauryn’s cousin, Colton Blackwood.
Despite having hundreds of guns pointed at him, Colton showed no fear whatsoever as he said arrogantly, “You’re nothing but servants at Jonathan’s beck and call, so you aren’t qualified to fight me. Tell Jonathan to come and see me, or things are going to get messy!”
“Looking for me?” Jonathan asked with a chuckle.
Colton turned toward the direction of his voice and saw both Jonathan and Lauryn making their way through the crowd.
“Ah, Lauryn! Thanks for saving me the trouble of looking for you! Come home with me and receive your punishment!” Colton said.
Jonathan shot Lauryn a curious smile when he heard that.
“What’s up with this cousin of yours? Why does he sound like he’s reciting a cheesy line from a movie or something?”
“Don’t worry about him. He’s been like that since he was a kid,” Lauryn replied while rolling her eyes.
She then had the soldiers make way for her as she walked up to Colton and asked, “What brings you here, Colton?”
“I overheard your conversation with your father the other day. He told me to follow you after you left because he wanted to know where you’d go. Now that I’ve caught you fooling around with Jonathan, I’m going to take you home for your punishment!” Colton replied while reaching for Lauryn’s arm.
Bam!
A loud thud rang out, and Colton was knocked back a couple of meters.
Lauryn then slowly pulled her arm back and acted like she had hit him by accident. Of course, she knew full well that Colton’s cultivation level had reached the advanced phase of the Grandmaster Realm, which was two stages higher than hers.
“Colton, you’ve always been the nicest to me in the family. Please go home and try to talk Father out of it. The Osborne family isn’t worthy of teaming up with us!” Lauryn whispered in his ear.
Colton’s left arm trembled slightly as he stared at his reddened palm.
He then tossed his fan into the air and let it slide open as it landed in his hand. “I’ll give you one last chance, Lauryn. Come with me obediently, or I will have to use force.”
“So what if you use force?” Jonathan asked as he sat down on a chair.
After detecting the spiritual energy from Colton’s fan, Jonathan gently swiped his palm and pulled a sword out of his storage ring.
“Lauryn, I will lend you a hand if you can’t beat him,” Jonathan said as he used his spiritual energy to send the sword flying toward her.
