After getting into the Maybach, Jonathan instantly observed the interior of the vehicle. Many computers and equipment were installed, making the interior look like a mini operating base.
Jonathan was amazed as he remarked, “Wow! This set-up looks like movie props.” Mabel ignored Jonathan's comment and explained, “This place is soundproof, so it's safe for us to talk.” After looking at Mabel's solemn expression, Jonathan realized the severity of the issue, and he turned serious as well.
As for Polly, she was stern as usual.
Mabel glanced at Jonathan and said, “I called you here today because | want you to make early preparations, Jonathan. I'll have you know the mistake you committed today was way worse than the one against Strikezone Martial Arts.” Jonathan felt confused. Huh? What is she talking about? Polly was just as puzzled.
“Just get to the point, Mabel.” Jonathan rubbed his nose irritatingly and asked, “What's going on?” Mabel answered, “You should never have killed Leonardo today! Now that he's dead, the Young family isn't going to let you go.” Jonathan said grimly, “Only one of us could be allowed to survive in the arena. Since we both went into the battlefield, we should have been prepared to die in battle as well. Even if the Young family is as unreasonable as Strikezone Martial Arts, | won't be at their mercy.” “I know what kind of person you are. You're not afraid of the ‘Young family or anyone else, for that matter. However, the ‘Young family is not your biggest threat,” Mabel said.
Jonathan and Polly were utterly confounded as Jonathan inquired, “It isn't?” “Although your life-and-death battle with Leonardo was fair, the Young family would never admit their defeat. They'd surely think of a plan to end you. The Young family members
are mostly business executives and entrepreneurs, so their combat skills are not as strong as Strikezone Martial Arts. It would be difficult for them to kill you. The person I'm warning you about is Leonardo's aunt, Bianca,” Mabel clarified.
Jonathan had heard from Mabel about Leonardo and Bianca's forbidden relationship before. He was rather against such a twisted relationship, as he felt it was completely against the laws of nature and humanity. After all, humanity could only maintain its order because of principles and virtues.
In life, one could not do whatever they pleased.
Jonathan would approve of their relationship if they were not blood-related, but Bianca was Leonardo's aunt.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtHowever, none of this was Jonathan's concern, as it had nothing to do with him. He was against that kind of relationship, but he would not make fun of them behind their backs.
More importantly, Jonathan only was unclear about something. Is Bianca a really capable person? Why would
she be my biggest threat? Thus, he asked, “Is Bianca powerful?” “Bianca is a cultivator at the Nascent Soul level.” Mabel paused before continuing, “I know you're not afraid of a Nascent Soul cultivator, but what's most terrifying about Bianca is her sect. One thing you need to know is that since Leonardo was Bianca's sweetheart, Bianca is surely going to go insane now that you've killed Leonardo. A madwoman is capable of anything. If she asks her sect to take action, you will be in grave danger.” “And what on earth do you mean by her 'sect'?” Jonathan questioned.
“Bianca is from the Holy Bounds Sect. The sect controls a number of corporations in the north, and it's pretty wealthy. Of course, the Holy Bounds Sect doesn't value money, as it only views money as a tool. The master of the sect is called Jeremy Depp. His fame and power is on par with that of Edward from Strikezone Martial Arts. However, the two took different paths in their cultivation journey. Jeremy has twelve
disciples in total, also known as the Twelve Acolytes. They have to worship him every day, providing him with the power of faith. The Twelve Acolytes are all Nascent Soul cultivators, and their faith is strong. Jeremy absorbs their faith to achieve his Destino Art. His disciples are nothing but tools to him,” Mabel explained.
Jonathan and Polly wore strange expressions after hearing Mabel's words. “Faith? I've only heard of spirits absorbing faith to strengthen their minds and consciousness, but that has its reasons. Since spirits are, in their very essence, consciousness, absorbing faith would enrich them. However, Jeremy is still alive. Can humans absorb faith too?” Jonathan asked.
Both he and Polly could not figure this out.
“You don't understand this yet because you're still in the early stages of cultivation. There are two levels of cultivation. The first is the cultivation of the body, and the second is the cultivation of the mind. Cultivating one's mind can help one foresee danger, understand the distribution of magnetic fields, and sense the wonders of nature at a deep level.
Jeremy absorbs his disciples’ faith to strengthen the electrical waves from his brain, which is also his spiritual energy. With that, he could attack people with spiritual energy and control magnetic fields. His cultivation level is as high as it could be while you're still stuck at cultivating your bodies,” Mabel said.
A brief pause later, she added, “Edward is also exploring this cultivation stage.” Jonathan and Polly were in awe. Cultivation is indeed an endless journey! The higher the level one achieved, the more they realized the difficulty and mystery of the process.
When Jonathan was at the peak of Neutralizing Force, he thought there was only that much to being a spiritual fighter.
As one's knowledge increased, one would become even more reverent of the world.
Jonathan fell into deep thought. A moment later, he said, “It's true that | can't afford to offend the Holy Bounds Sect for now.
But Mabel, do you think the Holy Bounds Sect would take action against me because of Leonardo?” “I told you, madwomen are the most terrifying beings. A
woman who has gone mad is hard to predict. When Strikezone Martial Arts dealt with you, they still cared about their dignity and had other concerns, but Bianca won't. News of Leonardo's death will reach Bianca soon. When that time comes, not only will she be coming after your life, but Jennnifer and the other girls might not be able to escape either,” stated Mabel.
Jonathan turned pale, as he could not bear the thought of anything happening to them.
He also believed Mabel was not trying to scare him. It was true that women would become irrational when they lost their minds.
“Will Bianca's sect go along with her frenzies, though?” Jonathan sounded rather distressed.
“Bianca was born naturally spiritual. Her faith is the purest and most nourishing of all, so Jeremy cares about her a lot.
Even if Bianca acts recklessly, he would still be considerate of her feelings. Moreover, killing you for Bianca is not a big deal
to him, Jonathan,” Mabel replied.
Knowing how much danger he was in compared to previous times, Jonathan said in a low voice, “It seems like | have to come up with a fallback plan quickly.” Before this, Strikezone Martial Arts at least showed some restraint on their end. On the contrary, the madwoman who was now after him was not one to negotiate with.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏm“I think you should let Amber take Jennifer, Jessica, and ‘Yasmin to stay at Yaleview for the time being. They can stay at Old Mr. Johnson's place. No matter how bold the Holy Bounds Sect is, they won't dare to cross the line at Old Mr.
Johnson's place. As for you and Polly, you two should travel to Yaleview with me,” Mabel suggested.
“Do we have to hide in Yaleview forever? This doesn't sound like a long-term solution.” Jonathan was reluctant.
“You're right. For a madwoman like Bianca, she might not dare to cause trouble in Yaleview at first, but she would surely do some unimaginable things if you keep hiding. | will think of a long-term solution to stop Jeremy as
long as you go to Yaleview.” Jonathan's eyes lit up. “What plan?” He paused before asking, “You aren't going to ask me to join the Department of National Security, are you?” “The Department of National Security may be strong, but it's not enough to intimidate a madwoman.” Mabel smiled bitterly.
“Then what would be the way to fend off a madwoman?” Jonathan asked curiously.
“There aren't any. The only way to deal with them is to kill them. Ending Bianca's life is not a difficult task, but we'll have to be cautious of Jeremy. Despite that, Jeremy is not an insane man, and he can still be shaken up. So, let's deal with Jeremy first and then tackle the madwoman. In this way, the problem can be solved.” “Well, how are we going to scare Jemoff, then? "Jonathan rubbed his nose.
Mabel smiled and said, “You'll know when we get to Yaleview.
There's no time to lose. | have booked a military aircraft, and we will depart tonight. We must reach Yaleview before Bianca
turns insane.” “There's still a lot of things to be dealt with in Horington,” Jonathan responded.
“Don't worry. | will arrange someone to manage the bar, company, and coffee house in Horington,” Mabel assured.
Jonathan turned to look at Polly. “What do you think?" “I trust that Ms. Sandler wouldn't deceive us. By the way, I'd like to request for the Xanthos brothers to be taken to YYaleview with us as well. If you see potential in them, you could train them to be members of the Department of National Security. | can guarantee their loyalty, but | don't think I'll be going to Yaleview for now. Before this, | was immersed in my bubble because | was trapped in it. Now that I have broken through it, | want to travel around and explore the world. | believe Jeremy couldn't kill me that easily even if he wants to.” Mabel was surprised, but she did not force Polly. “There is a vast world out there, Ms. McDaniels. If you insist on leaving, | can't stop you, and | believe you will find your destiny. Don't
worry about the Xanthos brothers. | will take good care of them.” “Thank you, Ms. Sandler. | will always remember your kindness,” Polly thanked her sincerely. “I treat Jonathan like a younger brother. You're helping me out by helping him. If you need my assistance in the future, | will serve you to the best of my abilities.”
