Chapter 473: Stirring up the City, The Helper of Gorillas
As Sean had hoped, things were getting out of hand! He was furious! He deliberately chose to walk with the coffin instead of driving faster because such a scene was more shocking and attention-grabbing. Moreover, walking was slow. Even if you started counting from the moment of entering Plainwater Town, it would take over half an hour to reach the Steer family mansion, enough time for the situation to completely ferment and spread to the ears of Buddha Academy and Hall of Jade. This way, Sean could have a chance to make contact with Hall of Jade!Property © of NôvelDrama.Org.
The two coffins were bound by iron chains, pulled by Sean. With every step he took, there was a harsh scraping sound between the coffins and the ground. Inside the coffins, Osvaldo Steer and Casimir Steer were still alive, struggling constantly. Hence, the coffins intermittently emitted sounds of knocking and muffled growls. This scene attracted the attention of passersby, who started pointing and discussing.
“Who is this old guy?”
“Damn!”
“He’s pulling two coffins into the city in broad daylight, and there seems to be movement inside. It’s as if they’re carrying two living people!”
“Where is he taking the coffins to?”
Passing by a coffin shop earlier, Sean had already changed his appearance and had gone through a second transformation. Now, he looked like an old man well past his prime, with a head full of white hair, dressed in a black robe, and a face covered in a web of wrinkles. At first glance, he looked like an elderly man.
The reason was simple. His previous identity as the deputy leader of “Great Ape” and the image of a “handsome young man” could only display the strength of the mid-stage dark energy. It would be more than enough to deal with Osvaldo Steer and Casimir Steer, but within the Steer family mansion, there was the Complete Stage Steer family ancestor, and under the premise of not exposing his true strength and identity, “Great Ape” was no longer sufficient. Therefore, Sean needed a new identity, a new image, to cause chaos in the Steer family mansion!
Forty minutes later, when Sean arrived at the gates of the Steer family mansion with the two coffins, a crowd had already gathered there, consisting of dozens of people, mostly Steer family descendants, all looking angry, seemingly already aware of the situation involving Osvaldo Steer and Casimir Steer.
Among them were the two mid-stage dark energy elders whom Sean had injured earlier! Among the Steer family descendants stood a slim old man holding a dragon-headed cane, with a cold complexion, exuding an imposing aura, clearly a complete-stage dark energy practitioner. This person must be the so-called Steer family ancestor! Besides the Steer family descendants, there were also a group of dark energy practitioners, around a dozen of them, led by another complete-stage old man. These people were dressed uniformly, resembling school uniforms. They were the people from Buddha Academy who had rushed over upon hearing the news.
“Steer family!”
“Is he… going to Steer family?”
“Look at the expressions of those from Steer family. It seems this old man is up to no good!”
Seeing the lineup in front of the Steer family mansion, the onlookers who had followed Sean were visibly surprised, feeling a sense of impending chaos.
Similarly, when the Steer family members, led by the Steer family ancestor, saw Sean approaching with the coffins, their pupils contracted suddenly.
“Is it him?” The Steer family ancestor inquired. Immediately, all the Steer family members looked at the two mid-stage dark energy elders whom Sean had injured.
“It wasn’t this person who injured us, but a young man at the mid-stage of dark energy, named Great Ape, who claims to be the deputy leader of Gorillas!” said the two elders, looking somewhat baffled. “At that time, only Great Ape was present!”
Upon hearing this arrogant name, those around them reacted just as the two elders had earlier. What a shameless person! Just hearing the name made them feel like he was an extremely despicable bastard!
At this point, Sean had already arrived within a dozen meters of the Steer family members. He stopped and looked around at these imposing Steer family members, casually asking, “Is this the Steer family?”
His tone was calm, as if… he was just asking for directions!
“Yes,” the Steer family ancestor, with cold and powerful eyes, stared at Sean and asked in a deep voice, “Are you a member of Gorillas?”
“Exactly,” Sean said with a faint smile, nodding. “I am Great Monkey. I am responsible for cooking and chores in Gorillas. I heard that your Steer family has been bullying and acting recklessly in Plainwater Town, and it has angered our deputy leader. I have come specifically to settle the score with you.”
Sean got straight to the point. At the moment Sean revealed his name, both the Steer family descendants and the nearby Buddha Academy disciples were stunned.
“Gorillas! What kind of force is that? Every member seems more shameless than the last!”
“How dare you!” The Steer family ancestor erupted in anger. His vigorous dark energy burst forth, and with a thunderous roar, he charged at Sean, wielding his dragon-headed cane, exclaiming, “I want your life!”
Seeing this, dozens of Steer family descendants clenched their weapons, preparing to surround and attack Sean. However, the Buddha Academy members who had come to assist, including the Complete Stage instructor, simply watched quietly, showing no intention of intervening.
Clearly, while there was some relationship between Buddha Academy and the Steer family, it was not enough to make them enemies on behalf of the Steer family. The reason they came was not only because of the Steer family ancestor’s plea for help, but more importantly, they had heard about a young man at the mid-stage of dark energy who was able to defeat two peers of the same level with a single punch.
Meanwhile, among the crowd of onlookers, there stood a nondescript old man with one eye blinded and the other eye as deep as an abyss, observing the battle in front of the Steer family mansion from afar.
He was a member of the Hall of Jade branch!
Sean had caused such a stir, attracting the attention of the entire Plainwater Town. He was waiting for the people from the Hall of Jade!
