Chapter 29 - Shameless

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

There was no doubt about it.

Lucy really was very skilled at flaunting someone else’s power. Additionally, she was also shameless enough! She was clearly borrowing the Hades Swords’ prestige for her own use!

To her, no one in all of Los Angeles could come into contact with a hotshot like the master of the Hades Swords anyway. Even if she was lying, was there anyone who could expose her?

What? Approach the master of the Hades Swords for verification? What nonsense. None of the Seven Great Clans had that sort of power!

On top of that, even if people were dubious about her claims, so what? All Lucy needed to do was just exaggerate things to bluff others, that’s all!

Whether they believed her or not, in any case, everyone would have to take into consideration Lucy’s relationship with the master of the Hades Swords from now on, no matter who it was!

That was what Lucy wanted!

As far as she was concerned, it was a win-win situation! So, why not?

The moment she thought of that, in order to raise the credibility of her claims, Lucy continued and said, “I know there are many who doubt the authenticity of this matter. No matter, I’ll prove it to all to you! I shall personally pay a visit to the venerable old master of the Hades Swords a few days later!”

As soon as she said that, the way everyone in the hall looked at Lucy changed again, gradually turning into a look of conviction!

.

Heller, who didn’t know whether he should be laughing or crying, said indifferently, “Sure, I’ll wait for you to visit the ‘venerable old master’ of the Hades Swords, then!”

Heller heavily emphasized the three words ‘venerable old master’!

Indeed, to most, the master of the Hades Swords’ war achievements were so outstanding and his medical skills so superb that even if he wasn’t already 70 years old, he must already be at least 50 years old.

He absolutely fitted the words ‘venerable old master’!

After all, it was common knowledge that Jon Wilson, the most renowned god of war in the States, was an old man himself!

“Three days! I will pay a visit to the venerable old master of the Hades Swords three days later!” Lucy looked at Heller, sneered, and said, “Now that things have come to this point, what else have you to say, Heller?”

Heller said indifferently, “The Hades Swords are just a pair of swords to me, nothing more. I don’t care what the relationship between you and the master of the Hades Swords is! Neither do I care when you’re paying him a visit! But before you do that, here’s a present for you!”

While talking, Heller turned to Jacob, whose throat he was still gripping. He said, “You’re Lucy’s younger brother. If I recall correctly, you said just now that you want to cut off both my arms and break all three of my legs?

“Very well, I shall fulfill your wishes!”

Heller threw Jacob on the floor and kicked him hard right on the crotch!

Splurt!

It was as if someone had just stomped on an egg and shattered it!

“Ahh!!”

Jacob screamed hysterically!

However, Heller lifted his foot and stomped down hard again!

“It’s broken! It’s broken! It really is broken! Ahhh!!!”

Jacob’s screams filled the hall, making everyone shudder!

Heller looked at Lucy and said dispassionately, “As far as I know, he’s your only brother, right? He’s of no use anymore, though! I remember your parents hold very patriarchal ideals. Does this mean the Xanders are at the end of their family line?”

Lucy, who looked absolutely furious, almost passed out from anger!

“Lucy, kill him! Kill Heller!” Jacob screamed hysterically, “Cut him into pieces! Ahhh!!”

How ruthless!

Under everyone’s watchful eyes,

Heller had outright obliterated what made Jacob a man and made him a eunuch! This was a living hell in the truest sense; it gave Jacob even more anguish than just outright killing him!

As though she had lost her mind, Lucy shouted sharply, “Let my brother go, Heller!”

Heller smiled calmly and said, “Oh, you want him back? Here!”

Heller lifted his leg and sent Jacob flying with a kick!

As Lucy helped Jacob up, he cried out, “Kill Heller, Lucy! Please, kill Heller for me!”

Lucy’s head whipped toward Heller. She looked straight at him and said furiously, “I swear you’re not leaving this place alive today, Heller!”

The corners of Heller’s lips curled upward and he sneered, “Is the CEO of the Xander Group intending to murder someone on the day her company went public and then became forcibly delisted? If word gets out, you can probably forget about the Xander Group ever going public.”

A furious Lucy said solemnly, “You must be mistaken, Mr. Nicholson! I have no objections to you leaving! However, that’s on the condition that you really have the ability to walk out of here alive!”

As Lucy’s voice rang out, everyone suddenly discovered that a tall and muscular man in black had appeared at the entrance of the banquet hall out of the blue!

Lovers of underground boxing definitely wouldn’t find him a stranger. His name was Billy West, and he was a well-known underground boxing champion in Los Angeles!

It was common knowledge that Lucy was the owner of the biggest underground boxing arena in Los Angeles! Although she would never admit it, this was a fact!

In the underground boxing arena, all boxers were required to sign liability waivers before they entered the ring. Once in the ring, they weren’t allowed to stop until either boxer died!

Billy currently had a record of 27 consecutive victories in the underground boxing arena!

Moreover, Billy had killed his opponents on the spot with just a single punch each time!

And now, he had set his sights on Heller!

Obviously, it was Lucy who had gotten Billy here. She was clearly set on killing Heller!

“Everyone,”

Lucy’s gaze swept across everyone in the hall as she said with a smile, “As all of you know, the Xanders have always been law-abiding citizens. We’ve never done anything illegal or broken any laws!”

“It was Heller who first humiliated me and injured my brother today. Even so, I’ve not done anything to harm him all this time!”

“However, should Heller get into a conflict with the underground boxer, I’d like everyone to act as my witnesses that this matter has nothing to do with me, Lucy Xander, or the Xander family itself!”

“Whether he lives or dies, the Xanders will not hold any responsibility!”

There was silence all around.

What was the meaning of ‘shameless behavior’?

Lucy’s current demeanor thoroughly brought the two words to life!

Crack! Crack!

Billy slowly loosened his neck muscles, causing cracks to ring out constantly. Then, he hooked his finger at Heller and said expressionlessly, “Little bastard, I can take your worthless life with just a punch!”

Jacob got up from the floor with the help of his bodyguards. He stomped his feet and shouted, “Billy! Hit him! Hit him hard! Shred him within two minutes!”

With a calm look, Heller turned to Billy and took a sudden step forward!

Offstage, everyone is full of excitement!

All men loved watching fist fights, and everyone in the hall would especially love watching Heller being beaten to death!

Everyone was convinced that Heller would die. After all, Billy had quite the savage reputation in Los Angeles!

However, they didn’t notice that Billy was currently tense all over and even vaguely trembling!

He was the underground boxing champion and had killed many with his own two hands in the underground boxing arena. His hands were soaked in blood, so he hadn’t thought much of Heller at all in the beginning!

Yet in that instant when Heller turned around and faced him for real, Billy’s heart suddenly tightened!

It was only then that he finally realized that the murderous aura around Heller was even more intense than his!

Killing intent slowly permeated from Heller and condensed around him, and an almost solid wave of murderous intent soared right into the sky!

Billy was already more or less convinced that Heller was no ordinary man—he was undoubtedly an extremely strong and terrifying man who had emerged victorious from a sea of blood before!

A silent voice seemed to be constantly warning Billy:

“Don’t fight him! You mustn’t fight him!”

“Otherwise, You’ll lose! And you’ll die!”
