Jacob from the Dark Realm Returns

Chapter 94: Provoke the Goldsmiths

Jacob nodded.

He accepted Hugh's greeting.

"Braylon, come here and meet Mr. Reyes!" Hugh immediately said to Braylon, "This is Mr. Jacob

Reyes!"

Braylon's eyes widened.

He had seen the video of Jacob and Boyce fighting at the junction of South and North Riverside

Province. However, the video was shot from such a distance that he couldn't see them clearly.

If they weren't familiar with Jacob, few people could have recognized him now.

Braylon was scared out of his wits when he knew this was Jacob.

Jacob was literally a legend in the Martial World.

He was definitely the most talented person in China's Martial World in the past hundred years.

And he was the youngest Martial Virtuoso ever. Còntens bel0ngs to Nô(v)elDr/a/ma.Org

Moreover, he was above the intermediate stage.

Jacob had got terrifying strength.

But now, he had become the patriarch of the Goldsmiths.

That meant all the Goldsmiths had to listen to Jacob.

Braylon was a subordinate of the Goldsmiths, so he should also listen to Jacob.

"Mr. Reyes, I'm ... I'm Braylon Patel!"

Braylon immediately stepped forward and said respectfully.

Jacob looked at him coldly. "From now on, take my brother Ron as your boss and help him manage this

bar street. Do you have any problems?"

Braylon was stunned and scared.

He did have a problem with that, but he didn't dare to say anything.

"No ... Of course not!"

Braylon said.

Then, Jacob flicked his finger at Braylon and a cloud of grey smoke entered his body.

Braylon was shocked.

Jacob then said indifferently, "If you assist Ron properly, you can absorb and refine this energy. You will

reach the Virtuoso Phase as time passes. Then you will be free. If you played him false, then this

energy will make your life become hell!"

Braylon sensed the energy within his body. He was both shocked and delighted.

He could feel how pure the energy was. He had this feeling that he might really be a Virtuoso if he

could absorb it.

And he knew well that he would die in an instant if that energy exploded in his body.

What was this? Braylon had never seen or heard of such a method.

His face changed as he looked at Jacob more respectfully.

He finally made a decision in his heart.

Then Braylon looked at Ron and bowed, "Boss!"

Ron was quite surprised when Braylon bowed to him.

For a moment, he didn't even figure out what was going on.

Had he become the boss of this bar street?

Did he achieve his goal so easily?

All of this felt like a dream!

Ron couldn't help but stare at Jacob. "Jacob, you ... you really did it."

Jacob smiled. "Fatty, you have a status now. But you must have the strength to keep it. It will be up to

you in the future!"

After saying that, Jacob flicked his finger at Ron again. One of the best cultivation manuals in the

universe, the Devil Scripture, appeared in Ron's mind.

Sophia had seen all these changes, and she had a complicated feeling.

Jacob was wearing clothes bought off the street, and she had looked down on him. But now she found

out that he was the head of the Goldsmiths in the capital city. Everyone including Braylon respected

him much!

Ron used to come to her every time Sophia called him. And now he had become Braylon's boss.

Even though her family was rich, they didn't have a status in the capital city. Even her father should be

very respectful to Hugh and Braylon. So, her father should also respect Ron in the future?

When Sophia was thinking about it, Jacob turned to look at her.

Sophia couldn't help but tremble.

She remembered the choices Jacob gave her.

Kneel and apologize!

Or, slap herself for ten times!

Now Sophia simply regretted it.

Why did she judge people by their appearances?

She even plotted to revenge on Jacob and Ron.

If she wasn't that snobbish, then her status would be higher than her father's now. And none of the

Browns would dare to look down on her as an illegitimate daughter.

Now, Sophia could not take the consequence of offending Ron or Jacob.

She could only clench her teeth and make a choice.

Then she should leave here forever.

However, Ron suddenly said.

"Jacob, forget it!" Ron looked at Jacob.

Jacob nodded.

He could easily kill Sophia. He gave Sophia two choices because of Ron.

Since Ron didn't mind about it, Jacob wouldn't do anything.

Sophia heaved a sigh of relief. She was delighted that Ron spoke for her. She thought Ron still couldn't

get over her. She looked at Ron and said softly, "Ron, I'm sorry. I know I was wrong. Let's get back

together."

Sophia couldn't wait to crawl back to Ron now.

"No. Ever since you insulted Jacob, it was over between us. I won't do anything to you because of our

old relationship. You should leave now!"

Ron sneered and didn't even look at Sophia again.

...

...

At the same time.

In a mansion in the capital city.

Five middle-aged men with extraordinary temperament were gathered in the brightly lit hall.

If anyone recognized them, he would be startled.

How could such these people gather in private?

"The Goldsmiths have fallen. They should no longer be one of the ten great families in the capital city,"

Said one of the middle-aged men, who was wearing a Chinese garment and looked authoritative and

domineering.

"You're right. The Goldsmiths have been in control of the domestic pharmaceutical industry. It's almost

a monopoly. Even we can't get a part of this business. Now, it's time to take over this huge cake and

give everyone a share!"

Another middle-aged man said.

"They only have three Virtuosos now. Howard hasn't shown up yet, and he has fallen from the top

Virtuoso. Now, they only have Spencer and Boyce. With such strength, they could only keep their

property in their dreams!"

"Nothing would change even if the other Virtuosos are still here. Jamison was a top Virtuoso and he

had touched the threshold of the Divinity Phase. But he's dead. No matter how strong the other

Goldsmiths are, they will only lose when we work together!"

"In the past few days, we have been secretly provoking them. Although they look tough, it only proves

they're weak now!"

"The only crux is that Jacob. There is a lot of evidence that he killed Jamison who had touched the

threshold of the Divinity Phase on his own. After entering the capital city, he broke the Goldsmiths'

family matrix. If that's the case, then Jacob must have stepped into the Divinity Phase. What do you

think?"

"But he's in his early twenties. How is that possible? Even secluded families rarely have such geniuses

in their core descendants!"

"Jacob is indeed very powerful. He is the youngest Virtuoso in our Martial World. Even Spencer

recognizes him as the patriarch of the Goldsmiths. This proves that he must be more than a late-stage

Virtuoso. He's very likely to be a top Virtuoso. With such strength and Spencer's help, it is not

impossible for him to kill Jamison."

"Jacob suddenly appeared in the North Riverside Province. Is it possible that he is the successor of a

secluded family?"

"Absolutely impossible! They will not come out so easily. Haven't you all seen his inmatrix for countless

times? We have all the records about him from the orphanage to now. It is impossible for him to be a

descendant of the secluded families!"

"As long as he is not a member of those families, then no matter how strong he is, we can easily kill

him together even if he shows up!"

...

"Then, let's do it tonight. Let's attack the Goldsmiths and see how they react. If they're obedient, we

can leave some alive. If they're not, then we can just eliminate them from one of the ten great families

in the city!"

...

That night, something went wrong with all the authority figures in the Goldsmith family.

Layne Goldsmith, the director of the secretariat of the capital city's council, was investigated for

corruption!

Keaton Goldsmith, General Manager of a branch of the Goldsmith Group, was seriously injured in a car

accident.

Kayden Goldsmith, a direct descendant of the Goldsmith family, was attacked.

A fire broke out in a medical equipment warehouse of the Goldsmiths!

...

The ten direct descendants in Goldsmith family were all in trouble overnight.

And bad accidents happened to some of their industries!

But Jacob didn't know about all of this.

After parting with Ron last night, Jacob returned to the Goldsmiths'.

Spencer told him that he had prepared the materials Jacob needed to set up the matrix. The last batch

of materials would arrive this night.

So, Jacob spent the whole night on cultivating.

He had planned to return to the Riverside City after rearranging a grand defensive matrix for the

Goldsmiths.

Jacob got two things to do in the Riverside City.

He wanted to figure out how Lena got that necklace with the power of chaos.

Then he wanted to get Olivia and Lena's blood. They both had a special constitution. He wanted to

collect all the materials to change Kaley's constitution, so that she could start cultivating.

However, Jacob hadn't summoned Spencer yet.

Spencer came to find Jacob first.

"Master, last night, all of our direct descendants had an accident."

"The last batch of materials for the matrix has been robbed!"

Jacob asked, "Do you know who did it?"

Spencer looked quite cold. "I think it must be those families about our level in the city."

"They thought we've fallen, so they won't let this opportunity slip. However, I didn't expect that they act

so quickly!"

Jacob nodded.

He was not surprised at it.

Jacob was the Emperor of the Dark Realm in his previous life. He had taken over the universe for

hundreds of years, witnessing the rise and decline of countless powers.

He had even destroyed several sacred lands, dynasties, and aristocratic families that had been passed

down for tens of thousands of years.

When a great power fell, all the forces would become restless, including those who were inferior to it.

They wished they could take a bite to strengthen themselves.

Jacob had intended to pay a visit to and warn the great families in the city before he left.

But they had made their move first.

And it was exactly what Jacob wanted.

He could solve all the problems at once!

"Invite the other nine families over!"

Jacob's eyes glinted with fierceness!
