Chapter 365 Challenged

“How did it go, Leonardo? Did Venicus say when he is going to start working on the longevity pill?”

Zachariah anxiously asked Leonardo.

“Mr. Jantz, Master Venicus said he will work on it once you get the herbs he wanted for Crescent Sect

ready,” Leonardo reported.

“What the f*ck! He is not about to cut us any slack, is he?” Zachariah couldn’t help but swear. “When

would those herbs be ready?” he asked with concern.

“The herbs they asked for are all rare and precious herbs. Not to mention the prices are exorbitant! I

have tried to bargain with Herb Palace on numerous occasions but they simply would not budge on the

price. That order is going to cost more than ten million, Mr. Jantz,” Leonardo complained in

exasperation.

Zachariah went into deep thought for a moment, then said, “Encash all the liquid assets we have. Also,

sell off all the assets of the Whitaker family. I must get the herbs for Crescent Sect.”

“Yes, Mr. Jantz!” Leonardo nodded.

Zachariah was adamant about getting his hands on the longevity pill. To him, his health was a top

priority. After all, he knew he could always make more money again so long as he had his health.

“Mr. Jantz. We have a problem!” Just then, one of the servants came running in and shouted in

distress.

“Stop shouting. Don’t you know it’s the middle of the night now? Calm down and tell me what’s going

on,” Leonardo chided the servant.

The servant was shivering in fear and cried out, “Two of our men are dead, Mr. Jantz! They are left at

the entrance! Please come and take a look!”

Zachariah was enraged by the news. The Jantz family had established themselves in Summerbank for

decades and never had anyone done such an outrageous thing to them. It was unthinkable that

someone had the guts to kill his men and openly leave their bodies right at his doorstep.

Zachariah, together with Leonardo, rushed to the entrance of the house and found that their guards

were already there, searching and watching out for further dangers.

Zachariah saw two of his men slumped on the ground, their heads smashed beyond recognition. All

their limbs were contorted in a weird manner. It was obvious someone had broken all their hands and

legs too.

Leonardo went forward and inspected the bodies. His face was glum when he reported back to

Zachariah, “Mr. Jantz, these are the two men you sent to get Ms. Grange!”

“What? Who could have done this? Don’t tell me Lizbeth is capable of doing this!” Zachariah was

hopping mad. After all, to kill his men in such a cruel manner and then leave their bodies right at his

doorstep was obviously a blatant act of challenge.

“This place is monitored by our surveillance cameras. We can check the footage!”

“Get on to it immediately!” Zachariah ordered.

In the security room, Zachariah watched with fury as his men played back the footage.

In the footage, they could clearly see a car coming to a stop right in front of the main entrance. Soon,

Jared stepped out of the car and sneered as he looked right into the security camera.

He then opened the trunk and brought out the two men. It was obvious their limbs were already broken

at that point in time.

He picked one of the men up, walked toward the security camera, and stared straight into the lens.

Then, he smashed his fist on the man’s head, instantly crushing the skull, and splattering blood all over

the place.

All those who were watching the footage shuddered involuntarily. It was an extremely horrifying and

cruel scene.

Jared repeated the same with the other man. After he finished them off, he swiped his fingers across

his neck, making the ‘kill’ sign. It was an outright provocative action.

After dumping the two bodies at the Jantz family’s doorstep, he drove off.

“Argh!” Zachariah slammed his fist into the monitor furiously and swore, “I’m going to kill him! I will kill

him!”

It was a deliberate act of provocation from Jared, and the Jantzs had never been challenged so openly

before.
