Chapter 1104 Embarrassed
“I think it’s better if you help me instead, President Zeigler.
If the Department of Justice found out as I went to investigate alone, I can’t guarantee they won’t sell you out when they are captured and interrogated…” Yamato smiled, even though his tone clearly expressed threat.
Zion’s expression darkened instantly as he furrowed his eyebrows. “Are you threatening me?”
“No, no. You’ve mistaken me, President Zeigler. I’m simply reminding you about it out of kindness…” The smile on Yamato’s face persisted.
Zion stared at him coldly and silently. He got a hold of dirt on me!
After a while, he slowly uttered, “I’ll send people to investigate. I believe it’ll only take a few days before I learn where Jared is…”
“Thank you, President Zeigler!” Yamato responded.
“However, I should remind you that the assassins you sent were nothing but a joke. There’s no way they can kill Jared,” Zion reminded.
“You don’t need to worry about that, President Zeigler. They may not be strong individually, but when they combine their powers, even a Martial Arts Grandmaster like Mr. Gordon won’t necessarily be able to defeat them.” Yamato was confident.
“Mhm, that’s good to hear.” Zion nodded.
He was aware that, while some people might not be powerful, they knew how to combine their strength with others to increase their power exponentially.
Since the Watanabe family was sending those five assassins, it meant they were excellent in some way.
Although Edgar was the most talented member of his family’s younger generation, his defeat had embarrassed the Deragons and made him a laughing stock.
The Deragons had a lot of branch families scattered across the country.
After Edgar’s defeat, many of the branch families officially announced their departure from the Deragons, which caused a huge drop in the Deragons’ market value.
“That d*mn Jared! I’ll make him pay sooner or later…” Ryker gritted his teeth as he stared at the severely injured Edgar.
Fury could be seen in his eyes.
“Mr. Deragon, Master Derrell is here…” Godrick informed after walking into the room.
“Get him in quickly!” Ryker swiftly stood when he heard that to welcome Derrell.
When Derrell rushed into the ward and saw the injured Edgar lying on the bed, a burning rage manifested in his eyes. “How dare he injured my disciple this badly! I’m going to kill that b*stard…”
As he spoke, he approached Edgar and sat next to the bed.
“Master…” Edgar began to cry when he saw his master approaching.
He could endure the pain of his wounds but not the damage dealt to his dignity and reputation.
“No need to cry, my dear apprentice. Let me examine your body…” Derrell grabbed Edgar’s wrist and injected martial energy into the latter’s body.
A few moments later, Derrell’s expression darkened greatly.
He gritted his teeth and uttered viciously, “That d*mn Jared is too evil! He shattered Edgar’s entire skeleton… I’m going to kill him!”
“Do you have any medicine that can help Edgar heal quickly, Master Derrell?” Ryker asked anxiously.
“The only way to heal his current condition is to ask people from Medicine God Sect for help. After all, they’re the experts in this field,” Derrell replied.
Ryker’s expression darkened when he heard the words—Medicine God Sect.
Even though he didn’t know the exact relationship Jared had with Medicine God Sect, he knew that the organization was on Jared’s side. Not only that, the sect viewed Jared very highly.
If he asked members of Medicine God Sect to help out, they might disagree.
