Covering his nose, Ghost 1 was aggrieved. He thought he could deal with Maximilian easily, but now he realized that he would be defeated by Maximilian easily.
After the first punching, Maximilian continued to hit Ghost 1 without hesitation.
“The drinking thing is a trick plotted by you! I would have been fooled by you if I hadn’t been able to metabolize alcohol fast!”
“The truck is arranged by you, right? You want to play the life-and-death crash with me? Such a bastard!”
“Did your master send the secret squad? Which one of the Dragon Sect is your master? Tell me and I’ll kill him!”
While roaring, Maximilian punched Ghost 1 heavily, who had no ability to fight back. Soon, Ghost 1 was hit to the ground soon.
The bones of Ghost 1’s upper body were mostly broken. He fell to the ground weakly, spitting blood from his mouth.
“You will be punished. They will avenge me!” Ghost 1 glared at Maximilian as if he would like to kill Maximilian with his eyes.
“Don’t you tell me who your master is? Then I’ll give you a lesson.” Maximilian raised his foot slowly, ready to kick Ghost 1 to death.
Ghost 1 closed his eyes and didn’t say a word, showing that he was facing death bravely.
Maximilian sneered and kicked him violently.
Pooh! Ghost 1 spurted a mouthful of blood and the light in his eyes gradually dimmed. Then he died finally.
Master Benedict sat in the ward and smoked, looking a little restless.
“How’s it going with Young Master?”
“According to the latest news, Harley failed and one of his secret squad has been get rid of by the Young Mater.”
Master Benedict was stupefied for a moment, and then he smiled bitterly.
It was normal for the secret squad to be destroyed by Maximilian. Master Benedict remembered that he was beaten by Maximilian even though there were bodyguards beside him. What was worse, even Cassius... was almost killed by Maximilian.
Thinking of the seriously injured Cassius, Master Benedict felt more grieved. Cassius was one of Master Benedict’s most important cards, and it was thus destroyed.
“Have Harley given up?” Master Benedict asked, and he pondered that what he should do if he were in the position of Harley.
Master Benedict estimated that he would be too angry to give up and continue sending someone to get rid of Maximilian, if he were Harley. Thus, Harley must have the same mind.
“Harley went to Young Master with the men he recruited in private. He might put up a desperate fight.”
The assistant replied respectfully.
“People just have to accept their fate, or they will come to the end of a blind alley.” Master Benedict shook his head and sighed with emotion, and then frowned.
Since Harley went to fight with Maximilian desperately, if Maximilian killed Harley in anger, would everything get worse?
If Harley died, Dragon Queen would be in great anger, and the conflict between Dragon Queen and Maximilian would be beyond mediation. In that case, how should Master Benedict choose between them?
If he was on Dragon Queen’s side, how could he deal with the Soul Chasing Pill? If he was on Maximilian’s side, there was no doubt that he would die soon.
“What are you talking to me, you son of a bitch? Don’t feel that you can do whatever you want because of Dragon Queen’s preference! Dragon Queen hasn’t said she’s going to kill Maximilian yet! Are you courting death?” Master Benedict growled angrily.
Harley was in silence. He planned to kill Maximilian this time in secret. He didn’t expect that he couldn’t kill Maximilian, but the things were getting worse. If he continued his action, he may not take the consequence in the end.
“As a servant who just licks the feet of Dragon Queen, you know nothing at all! Do you know why Dragon Queen didn’t kill Maximilian? Because he has something in his hand. Besides, Dragon Queen can’t kill Maximilian as long as Dragon Lord is alive. If you kill Maximilian now, Dragon Queen will kill you immediately!”
What Master Benedict said was half-truth. He speculated that he could persuade Harley, who was just a gigolo after all. Hence, He thought Harley didn’t know many secrets of Dragon Sect, not to mention the issue about inheritance.
Harley was sort of surprised, and then he pondered what Master Benedict said, feeling that what he said might be true; otherwise Dragon Queen would not have kept Maximilian alive.
“What does he have in his hand?” Harley asked curiously.
“Just ask Dragon Queen, since it’s no use asking me. I don’t know either. It’s kind of matters related to inheritance, which are not something you can get involved. You’d better be sensible enough to go back to serve Dragon Queen and I’ll behave as I don’t know about it.”
When realizing his words worked to Harley, Master Benedict said in a more arrogant tone, trying to persuade Harley completely in an imposing manner.
Harley was mute for a moment, and then he closed his eyes and said, “I’ll think about it. We can talk about it later”
“What are you fucking thing about? You’ll be dead if you continue to go your own way. I’m trying to save you. The people you sent are dead. Do you still regard Maximilian a good-for-nothing? Your incapable men are no match for Maximilian at all.”
Harley frowned and said to ghost bodyguard beside him, “Is there any news from Ghost 1?”
“I feel that Ghost 1 was dead.”
