Chapter 597: 597 Chapter Speaking Crosstalk_1

“I could do it, a flick of the wrist, knife through the air, do you need it?”

As Julius Reed spoke, Karen’s gaze flickered, and she shouted, “Be careful!”

Before she could finish, Terry Moore rolled forward, lifting the car door torn off by Julius Reed, and placing it in front of them!

Clang! Clang! Clang!

The next moment, countless silver needles descended from the sky, piercing the car door.

“Damn! That’s vicious!”

Karen carefully pulled out a needle and sniffed it lightly, exclaiming, “That’s amazing! Whoever threw these needles is definitely a master!”

“Cosmo, no need to take action!”

Julius Reed turned around, looking at Cosmo by the third-floor window, “Keep an eye on your mistress for me, do not leave her side for a single step!”

“Understood!”

Cosmo leaped down, jumping straight from the third floor.

She walked over with an icy demeanor and said to Karen, “If I see you again next time, you won’t be so lucky!”

After speaking, she went into the villa with Quella Radcliffe.

Only three people were left outside.

“Big brother, you’re truly a master! Such an incredible woman has to call you ‘master’?”

After Cosmo left, Karen asked in a lower voice while giving him a thumbs up, “Terry Moore said he could only withstand one move against you, and he would surely not escape the second. I thought the kid was just talking big.”

“You saw it, I really couldn’t win.”

Terry Moore helplessly spread his hands, leaning against the Jetta car, continuing to rummage through the seafood in the plastic bag.

It was clear, the kid was really hungry.

“Stop the nonsense, today you kidnapped my wife, so I’ve lost a move to you.”

Julius Reed glanced at the two of them, “As a smart person, you should know what happens when you oppose me.”

“Of course, I know, I can’t even get a meal now, otherwise why would I risk everything?”

Karen said with a grin, “How about letting us go back then?”

“Please, have mercy.”

Terry Moore’s posture didn’t resemble that of a master at all!

He was just like a child with an intellectual disability.

However, in the capital.

No one dared to belittle him.

Under his fists and feet, it was said, he was invincible.

Those who dared to challenge him were probably beaten to death already.

“Please make an exception, we’re already in such a state.”

Seeing a turning point, Karen eagerly pushed further, “Rest assured, we owe you a favor.”

“Do you have an antidote for the poison afflicting Old Master Leocadia?”

Julius Reed asked, walking up to Karen, staring intently into his eyes.

If the old man dared to lie, he wouldn’t mind killing him.

“I really have nothing to do with that, my job is just to fight, I know nothing about poisoning.”

Terry Moore raised his hands, stepping back, quickly trying to prove his innocence.

“Ptui! Terry Moore, you ungrateful wretch.”

After spitting, Karen turned with a wry smile, “You’re indeed a wise man, even knowing about this matter. But I’ll tell you the truth, the poison wasn’t my doing.”

“Not you?”

This answer took Julius Reed by surprise.

If not Karen, then who could it be?

In his eyes, someone capable of using poison like that was the only candidate for poisoning Old Master Leocadia.

Yet looking into Karen’s eyes, he seemed to not be lying.

“Without hiding anything from you, it was my senior brother.”

Karen scratched his head, explaining, “Your previous guess was right, I am from the Medicine King Valley, but merely a peripheral disciple, hardly considered important.”

“Medicine King Valley, there are distinctions within?”

Julius Reed was hearing about this for the first time.

“You don’t even know that? How did you know about Medicine King Valley then?”

Karen was also surprised; her heart had indeed skipped a beat when she heard Julius Reed claim to be from Medicine King Valley.

Yet now, the other party didn’t even understand the rules of Medicine King Valley.

“Sorry, it’s just a small place, not worth my time to learn about.”

Julius Reed offered an awkward smile.

“Cough! Cough!”

Karen coughed, thinking to herself that this pretense caught her completely off guard!

Still, she politely said, “Medicine King Valley is divided into collateral and direct branches, and only members of the direct branch are qualified to learn the true prescriptions. To be honest, I only know that the person who poisoned was from the Leocadia Family, but I do not know who this direct descendant is. My master’s order was simple, to stay with the Leocadia Family to confuse and mislead.”

“If what you’re saying is true, you really did confuse and mislead. So, you mean to say, the poisoner is someone else?”

Julius Reed was genuinely surprised; even though he had considered many possibilities, he hadn’t expected such a situation.

“So, you have no clues at all? Or let me ask, can you cure this poison?”

“Not a single clue,” Karen shook her head and said with a helpless smile, “The fate of the collateral branch is to serve as minions for the direct lineage, to provide cover; without even this capacity, we’d be useless. Mr. Reed, I advise you, the waters of the capital are very deep, you should not wade into this muddied pool.”

“Thank you for your advice, but I cannot fail to do what I’ve promised to Sophia Leocadia.”

Julius Reed looked at Karen and said with a faint smile, “A man must always keep his word, mustn’t he?”

“Ah! It would be a pity for someone of your caliber, Mr. Reed, to fall in the capital. Old Master Leocadia’s poison comes from the upper half of the Deathly Herb Manual of Medicine King Valley, and the one who administered it holds a high status within Medicine King Valley. That’s all I can say because that’s all I know.”

Karen clasped her hands together and asked softly, “Could you possibly let us go?”

“No!”

Julius Reed refused decisively.

“Wait, give me a chance!”

Karen spoke again, seeking to negotiate.

“You’re a smart person, I really don’t want to kill you.”

Julius Reed suddenly laughed and gestured to Karen, “Do something for me and I’ll let you go. But from now on, don’t be an enemy to me. Otherwise, next time, it’ll be your corpse lying there.”

“What is it? As long as it’s not going back to the Leocadia Family to commit murder, everything should be manageable!”

Karen, seeing an opportunity, hurriedly asked.

Fearing that a moment’s delay might cause her to lose the chance.

“Murder! I’ll give you someone’s information. I don’t expect you to be able to kill him; just to scare him will suffice.”

Julius Reed took out his phone and showed the photo of Fabian Percival: “The person is at Valentine’s Hotel. Once you’re done eating and ready to cooperate, strike directly! Finish the job and then you can go home, wouldn’t that be splendid?”

“Absolutely splendid!”

Karen took a careful look at the photo and made an OK gesture: “Thank you for sparing our lives, boss!”

“Thank you, boss!”

Terry Moore followed suit, bowing behind her and shouting loudly.

After speaking, the two got into the rundown Jetta car, ready to leave.

“Wait!”

The moment they got into the car, Julius Reed suddenly called out.

“Oh my gosh! Brother, a person of your status can’t go back on your word!”

Karen’s face immediately fell, looking pitifully at Julius Reed.

“Exactly, you yourself said it, a man’s promise is as good as gold! So, just because Sophia Leocadia is a woman and we’re men, our words don’t count?”

Terry Moore also chimed in.

“You don’t want your traveling expenses?”

Julius Reed took out a wad of hundred-yuan bills from his wallet and shook it before walking away.

“Brother, leave the money!”

Karen shouted loudly.

“The two of you could go do comedy,”

Julius Reed threw the money into the car and walked away.
