The Legendary Man novel Chapter 648

Chapter 648 Exposed Identity

Jonathan was now in a standoff with Zebedee and Team Oracle who numbered thirteen men.

Watching them through the door, Nina didn’t dare make a single move. Instead, she gripped the couch’s corners so tightly that the veins in the back of her hands began to bulge.

Prior to having her meridians sealed, she—as a Grandmaster—would have been capable of giving Jonathan a hard time even though she was still no match for him.

What she didn’t expect was Jonathan sealing her meridians out of caution even though she had used a magical item to suppress her cultivation level to that of Superior Realm.

As a God Realm warrior, is it really necessary to be wary of someone from Superior Realm?

Having her powers sealed and suffering the effects of the laxative, the ashen-faced Nina could no longer move, let alone flee.

Along the corridor, the ring of the nearby elevator interrupted the standoff.

As its doors opened, Geoffrey stepped out, phone in hand.

“Mr. Goldstein…”

No sooner had he spoken than he stared at Zebedee and his men in shock.

With Jonathan brandishing a magical weapon against a group of hostile-looking men, even a fool could sense that something was amiss.

Zebedee, with an emotionless gaze, gave Jonathan a look.

“Mister, you know how to speak Jetroinian?”

“A little,” Jonathan replied with a smile as he swung his staff around.

He continued, “So, what are a bunch of Jetroinians pretending to be Chanaeans up to?”

“Pretending?” Zebedee sounded surprise. “Since when were we pretending? We only spoke Chanaean to you out of courtesy.”

“Is that so? In that case, what are you doing here in Chanaea?” Jonathan probed in a mischievous tone.

From the men’s earlier sword stances, it was evident that they were Jetroinian warriors. To be in Chanaea at such a sensitive time, it was obvious what their objective was.

Despite that, Jonathan was curious as to why he couldn’t feel any spiritual energy from the group.

Did they seal off their spiritual energy with some magical item or technique? If that’s the case, I have to get my hands on it. Something like that is invaluable for assassinations.

Zebedee’s men began to chuckle at Jonathan.

“Mr. Goldstein… right? We’re here in Chanaea to make an investment.”

“Tell me your name and entry date into the country,” Jonathan demanded calmly.

“My name’s Zebedee Makino. I’m the head of Team Oracle,” Zebedee answered with a slight bow and a grin on his face.

The very next instant, the flash of a blade could be seen bearing down upon Jonathan’s lower body.

Clang!

Amidst the clash of metal, Jonathan stopped the blade with his staff.

As sparks continued to fly from the magical staff, a lava-like substance began to flow along the motifs on its surface, spreading from where Jonathan’s grip was to both its extreme ends.

In Zebedee’s hands, a meter-long broken blade was emitting an icy frost.

Despite having a contest of strength discreetly, both of them wore a smile on their respective faces.

“Team Oracle is one of Jetroina’s mysterious organizations that report directly to the Emperor. Obviously, you’re considered big fish,” Jonathan remarked smugly.

As for Zebedee, his earlier calm was now replaced by a cold and hostile look.

“Jonathan Goldstein, also known within Chanaea’s military circles as the legendary Asura. I didn’t expect to run into you here. Now, die!”
