Chapter 430
Chapter 430: Alliance
Feeling Xander’s look, Qian Jin opened his arms and clustered the four beauties around him like a hen sheltering her chicks. After casting a casual look at Xander, Qian Jin started walking into the mayor’s mansion slowly.
“What a hooligan Xander is.” Marc Gavin bent down by Qian Jin’s side and ‘whispered’ to him, “Boy, watch out. This old pervert seems to be coveting your women. He is famous for his obscenity throughout Yulee City.”
Uttered in a low and husky way, Marc Gavin’s words were heard by all attendees of the ball. Some of them even nodded their heads to show their consent, making Xander change his fair face into sullen one. As the blue veins on the hand laid on the wand bumped up, he glared at Marc Gavin walking into the hall.
“If it is not for Fabreidis who had reached the saint level…” Xander uttered a long sigh to calm himself down. But deep inside he kept cursing Fabreidis’s luck, without whom he would lead the Crystal Magic Tower to bombard the Torrent Battle Fort and kick the Warrior Union out of Yulee once and for all.
“President Xander doesn’t look to be in a good mood.” Ray Zhen resumed his elegant bearings, slowly walked to Xander and smiled faintly. “Currently Marc Gavin is gaining supreme arrogance with great power at the Yulee City. So it’s your great honor to be critiqued by him.”
“Really?” Xander wore a hypocritical smile and looked at Ray Zhen. “I hear that the honorable Ray Family went to the Torrent Battle Fort for negotiation, but was humiliated by Mr. Marc Gavin. If I’m not mistaken, you were seen off by this president with two war axes.”
The rugged face of Ray Zhen turned dark and looked through the crowd at Qian Jin. Were it not for this little bastard, Marc Gavin wouldn’t have been able to bully him. Instead, he would have Marc Gavin surrender to him so as to achieve his goal.
But all of a sudden, Ray Zhen forced a look of holy despair on his face. According to the Vice President of the Yulee Blacksmith Union, Ray Guamin, this bloke was way more excellent than him in respect of forging skills after examining Qian Jin’s forging operations.
“Perhaps my master, the respectable president has ways to defeat him. The time my master finishes working on the soul weapon might be the time when the Zence Blacksmith Competition is held.”
To wait until the president of Yulee Blacksmith Union finished forging the soul weapon? Ray Zhen uttered a long sigh. The wait would be too long. Now that no one in the Blacksmith Union was able to beat Qian Jin at this moment, he would hire some assassins to put a direct end to the boy.
However… why was this boy still alive? Ray Zhen couldn’t figure out why but had to watch him leave. He had contributed fifty thousand gold coins to hire assassins to kill Qian Jin. How did he survive last night’s assassination?
“Mr. Ray Zhen, I personally hold that we shouldn’t have the Torrent Battle Fort put on such airs anymore.” Xander walked into the mayor’s mansion shoulder to shoulder with Ray Zhen. The graceful look drew a sharp contrast with his vicious parlance. “Your distinguished Ray Family has been bullied by the Torrent Battle Fort over the past few days. If things go on like this…humph!”
Ray Zhen cast a harsh glare at Xander while cursing his luck surreptitiously. You two are birds of the same feather. When the Torrent Battle Fort assaulted our Ray Family, what was your Crystal Magic Tower doing? The freight station of the Ray Family was plundered by you. Did it make any sense for you to act well in front of me?
“What about working with us?” Xander crossed his hands behind his back and kept swinging his luxuriant wand. “As long as we team up with each other, we can surely expel the Torrent Battle Fort out of Yulee. By that time we will take over thirty percent of the Torrent Battle Fort’s property while the remaining seventy percent goes to your Ray Family.”
Ray Zhen was shocked, stopped walking forward, and turned to look at Xander in surprise. What was wrong with this president of Crystal Magic Tower? How could he be so generous today?
“I only have one minor request.”Xander looked up to the tall and strong Ray Zhen. “I hope the Ray Family could help me catch three people. Those three women.”
Ray Zhen wore an enlightened look. Well, Xander proposed such an idea due to his longing for Qian Jin’s women. To rely on the Crystal Magic Tower alone to fight against the Torrent Battle Fort and procure the three beauties was somehow unattainable.
“If so…” Ray Zhen stroked his long white beard and wore a look of agreement. It didn’t matter whether the Torrent Battle Fort could be quenched, but Qian Jin was sure to be wiped out. It was all because of him that the Ray Family lost a promising descendant and a respected leader.
A family leader! On the point of recalling that both his beloved son Ray Ray Gurish and his granddaughter Ray Yue whom he deemed most promising died directly or indirectly because of Qian Jin, Ray Zhen couldn’t help feeling desperately exasperated.
“We lost two members in our family, but he, the murderer, is still alive.” Ray Zhen looked up to the sky and sighed. “I’m feeling so repentant! How should I face my son and my granddaughter in the stars if I didn’t make him die?”
“Respected family leader, the pain of losing your son shouldn’t be borne by yourself.” The smiling crescent-like eyes of Xander were shining with a sinister light. “I hear that Qian Jin has a son called Rojin. Or Qian Lin.”
Ray Zhen opened his half-closed eyes. “Do you mean it?”
“Definitely.”Xander patted his chest. “How could I lie to you?”
“Rojin? Qian Lin?” Ray Zhen nodded his head like a chick pecking the millet. “Good. Great. Qian Jin. You killed my son, and now is your turn to taste the pain. I will not only kill your son but try to finish you off by way of your son. I don’t believe that you will escape this time.”
“So I wish you a smooth revenge on Qian Jin and the Torrent Battle Fort from the bottom of my heart.”Xander tenderly flung the wand in his hand. But deep inside, he was gloating. What did it have to with him whether the Torrent Battle Fort fell down or not? Did it make any differences to be mocked by Marc Gavin? Definitely not. To him, there was only one thing that truly mattered: the beauties.
That single-eyed beauty who was full of sexy exotic aroma was expected to be of great fun on the bed. The innocent looking Rosella should also feel great to rejoice with.
Xander felt an erection after visualizing such a scene. He had made up his mind to play with Gabriella with great force.
Indulged in his imagination, Xander couldn’t stop having a refreshing quiver.
“President Marc, long time no see.”
Dressed in a deluxe suit, mayor York Leigh walked through the hall with splendor toward the entrance and then opened his arms to embrace Marc Gavin. Seeing this, some guests stepped back to leave a passage for this inexplicably high-spirited mayor.
But most of the guests chose to look at York Leigh with great astonishment; they didn’t see that good of a relationship between the mayor and the Torrent Battle Fort in the past. Why did he appear so hospitable towards Marc Gavin today? Just now he was chatting happily with someone else, but on hearing that Marc Gavin had arrived, he ditched all other people and directly went to him.
Seeing York Leigh walking toward him and against the atmosphere filled with envy, surprise, shock, and bemusement, Marc Gavin cast a look at Qian Jin sub-consciously.
Cool. This is great! Marc Gavin stuck out his chest and walked to York Leigh with a rosy look. He couldn’t help calling out aloud to himself that there could ever be such a thrilling moment in his life.
Cool. Fantastically cool. While enjoying the warm hug from York Leigh, Marc Gavin kept a sober mind that he was given such a nice welcome not because of the Torrent Battle Fort. Even if Fabriedis came back to the Torrent Battle Fort, the mayor York Leigh wouldn’t offer such a kind greeting.
Having entered the saint level, Fabreidis became undoubtedly powerful. Yet that didn’t pose as a pleasure to York Leigh. He might show more respect to the Torrent Battle Fort due to the influence of Fabreidis, but he wouldn’t behave so intimate.
Intimacy was totally different from respect.
Everything happening today… Marc Gavin flashed an appreciating look at Qian Jin, who was searching for food along the buffet stand without whom Marc Gavin wouldn’t be enjoying such a hot reception.
“How is everything with you buddy?” York Leigh wore a highly ecstatic look. “It’s really my great honor to have you today.”
“Flattered.” Marc Gavin started addressing with fervor and assurance upon the mayor’s compliment. “You inviting me here is a sign of friendliness to me. So please feel free to contact me for any requests. I will try my best to have them done however difficult they might be.”
“It’s so nice of you…” While taking to Marc Gavin in a seemingly enthusiastic way, York Leigh was actually looking Qian Jin up and down from the corners of his eyes, wondering whether Fabreidis’s soul weapon was really forged by this guy. It was really beyond imagination. Fortunate was the fact that he didn’t ever do this boy wrong, otherwise his only path to reach the saint level would be cut off.
The circling guests didn’t pay much attention to the incredible hug between these two men, though in the past they might wonder what had happened between them.
But today? At this moment? There was something more attractive than them in the hall.
