The Invincible Mercenary King (Haylan Jaber)

Chapter 943

Yussel confronted Jerome, his cold gaze piercing through him. “I lost the bet, and I’ve paid. Jerome. Don’t go too

far!”

He burned with an intense desire to rip Jerome apart, piece by piece!

Having already lost two million dollars, Yussel had believed that the Griffith brothers would settle the matter in

exchange for the money.

Jerome had the audacity to demand that Yussel publicly slap himself 30 times. It was humiliating.

“Am I going too far?”

Jerome’s expression turned even colder as he responded, “Mr. Martinez, you willingly signed the betting agreement.

I am simply fulfilling the terms we agreed upon.

“Moreover, the Southern Heavenly Gate Raw Stone Market has invested significant registration fees to qualify for

this competition, Jerome added.

“You’ve made repeated attempts to sabotage our raw stone during this competition. It seems like you have a

personal agenda to ruin the Southern Heavenly Gate Raw Stone Market.

“You’re the one with malicious intent and hidden motives. How dare you accuse us of going too far?”

Every word was sonorous and powerful!

“Yussel, you willingly signed the betting agreement. The terms are clear and binding. Do you now wish to renege on

your commitment?” Jerry’s voice carried a steely resolve.

Yussel’s gaze bore the weight of murderous intent as he fixed his icy eyes on the Griffith brothers.

Tap, tap, tap..

At this moment, hurried footsteps sounded.

Mr. Zabel stormed in, accompanied by a battalion of heavily armed soldiers. His icy gaze pierced through the

tension, fixed upon the Griffith brothers and Yussel.

“What happened?” Mr. Zabel asked coldly.

As he spoke, his eyes locked onto Haylan with a newfound spark of recognition. With a hint of surprise, he quickly

addressed Haylan with the utmost respect, “Jaber, it’s you!”

Haylan opened his eyes and nodded at Mr. Zabel. He said calmly, “I’m here to help my friend detecting stones.”

“Friends?”

“I mean Mr. Griffith.”

“Okay, got it.”

Mr. Zabel’s understanding dawned upon him, and he nodded approvingly at the Griffith brothers. His gaze then

turned piercingly toward Yussel, fixating on him with a steely resolve. “Yussel, if it’s clearly stated in black and white,

do you really intend to backtrack on your agreement?”

Haylan’s contribution to the Zabel family was immense. He had significantly enhanced their cultivation techniques,

leading to substantial advantages and benefits for the entire family.

With genuine gratitude and admiration, he held deep respect and affection for Haylan. He extended his warmth and

enthusiasm not only to Haylan but also to Haylan’s family and friends, treating them with utmost care and

consideration.

Yussel’s heart sank as he witnessed Mr. Zabel’s attitude toward Haylan.

He realized that Mr. Zabel would side with Haylan in this matter.

The Griffith brothers were filled with joy at the sight.

At the same time, they were even more impressed by Haylan.

Mr. Zabel held a high position in the military department, making it impossible for the Grillith brothers to win his

favor.

The fact that such a prominent figure showed respect toward Haylan was truly astonishing.

As Mr. Zabel noticed Yussel’s silence, his expression turned icy. “Yussel, the Gemstone Identification Competition in

Lightdom City does not welcome participants who break their promises!

“If you refuse to keep your cop

un’t blame me for

Chapter 913

These words were even more powerful.

Yussel’s expression changed. He gritted his teeth and said, ‘Alright, I’ll fulfill my promise!”

With that, he slapped himself.

The powerful force made his face red and swollen.

Mr. Zabel walked over and said to Jerome, “Can you show me the betting agreement?”

Without another word, Jerome immediately handed over the betting agreement.

Mr. Zabel’s gaze turned icy as he fixed his eyes on Yussel. “As per the terms of the betting agreement, you are

required to slap yourself 30 times. The first slap was just the beginning. Go on.”

As he spoke, he even chatted with the others at the scene to understand the ins and outs of the matter.

Yussel gritted his teeth. “Mr. Zabel, aren’t you being too biased?”

“Biased? I’m just supervising your compliance with the betting agreement. Our Gemstone Identification

Competition here values character the most. If you don’t even abide by the signed agreement, how will our

organizers welcome you?” Mr. Zabel said coldly.

According to his understanding, all of this was caused by Yussel, who was looking for trouble with Haylan.

Grateful for Haylan’s assistance, Mr. Zabel felt compelled to support Haylan and teach Yussel a valuable lesson.

“I…” Yussel wanted to say something but hesitated.

Helpless under the pressure exerted by Mr. Zabel and the stern soldiers, Yussel reluctantly steeled his heart and

subjected himself to multiple self–inflicted slaps.

The slapping sounds echoed relentlessly.

Under the gaze of Mr. Zabel, Yussel slapped himself 30 times.

By the time he was done, his cheek was already swollen. He looked extremely miserable.

Jerome and Jerry couldn’t hide their triumphant smiles, their satisfaction evident. They had successfully exacted

their revenge and felt a surge of contentment.

Mr. Zabel nodded in satisfaction and said coldly, “Yussel. If you dare to cross the line again and harass Mr. Haylan or

anyone else, I won’t hesitate to disqualify you and your companions. Is that perfectly clear?”

“Understood,” Yussel said in a low voice.

“Then get lost. Don’t embarrass yourself here,” Mr. Zabel scolded.

Yussel didn’t even dare to say a single harsh word. He left like a stray dog.

“Get lost, Yussel! If you dare to come around and meddle again, don’t blame us for going too far. Consider yourself

warned!” Jerry’s voice boomed with excitement and satisfaction as Yussel walked away.

Jerome smiled at Mr. Zabel and said gratefully, “Mr. Zabel, thank you so much.”

“It’s my duty. It’s nothing. You don’t have to take it to heart. I wish you all a smooth journey to the finals and win

Stone King Cup.

“If someone disturbs you, feel free to contact me. I’ll help you settle it.”

Mr. Zabel waved his hand. After exchanging a few pleasantries with Jerome, he greeted Haylan before leading his

soldiers

away.

After they left, everyone looked at Haylan, Jerome, and Jerry differently.

“I thought that the Griffith family was just a small family. I didn’t expect them to be so familiar with Mr. Zabel.”

“No wonder the Griffith family is so fearless. It turns out that they have the Zabel family backing them!”

“In the future, we shouldn’t provoke the Griffith family. After all, the Zabel family is not to be trifled with in Lightdom

City. They are no weaker than Robert.”

Everyone discussed as they waited for their appraisers to choose raw stone.

Luke and Yonah looked over. Their expressions were dark. No one knew what they were thinking.
