Chapter 483 Stan Mitchell Is in Trouble

"Sure!" Stout responded calmly. "Come at me!"

The man took a deep breath and then shook his wrist, creating a piercing sound as the long spear sliced through the air. Immediately, a surge of violent true energy filled the spear, and he moved swiftly, sending the spear forward with several sharp gusts of wind aimed at Stout.

The man's cultivation level was the same as Stout's; he was a Half-Step War Emperor as well. Though there was no intent to kill, this was an all-out attack, with the intention of deciding the winner in one move. "Not bad!" Stout pouted. "But still a bit weak!"

With that said, he took two large steps forward, and his palms produced several afterimages as his aura rapidly increased. He then thrust both palms forward. Wherever his palm strikes landed, there were loud bursts of sound as they intercepted all of the spear's gusts of wind.

"Face me spear!" the man said sternly as his aura surged once more.

The long spear created over ten afterimages that merged into one, shooting toward Stout like a solid object.

"I can handle ten of your shots!" Stout replied, and his palms traced a mysterious pattern in the air as he collided with the spear.

Their attacks clashed, and the illusory spear shattered instantly. The man then spat out blood and was pushed back seven or eight steps, causing the cement beneath his feet to crack like a spiderweb. With a single move, the victor was clear.

"Essence Crossing Palm?" The man stabilized himself and expressed his surprise. "Are you from Secret Essences?"

"Oh, not bad! You even recognized Essence Crossing Palm." Stout responded. "Do you want to continue?"

"I've heard that there are two genius in Secret Essences," Arthur remarked with a smile. "Today, I see it's true. Being so young and skilled, you are indeed extraordinary. Len is quite fortunate to have such a talented member in his group."

"Do you know my father?" Stout asked Arthur.

"Not only do I know him, he owes me a drink!" Arthur smiled again. Sᴇaʀᴄh thᴇ FɪndNøvel.ɴet website on Gøøglᴇ to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality.

"Since you two are acquaintances, that makes things easier!" Stout grinned. "Fowler, can you tell us what the secret is in this village? Don't worry, I promise not to reveal it."

"Haha, I'll never tell." Arthur said and took a sip of his tea.

"Hey, you old man, you're just asking for trouble!" Stout shot him a glare. "You better not provoke my boss, or nobody can save you!"

"Commander Gardner, please go back. You'll know what's happening here sooner or later. Why rush it?" Arthur ignored Stout and turned to Billy.

"You really don't want to talk?" Billy furrowed his brow slightly.

"Commander Gardner, it's best not to push too hard." Bessie said, setting down her teacup.

"If that's the case, then so be it," Billy said calmly. He turned to Azure Fang and the others. "Call in fifty thousand SHADOW guards, dig deep, and uncover the secrets!"

"Yes, Commander!" Azure Fang and the others nodded simultaneously, taking out their phones to make the call.

Billy's orders were to be followed without question.

"Hold on," Arthur's mouth twitched, then he looked at Billy. "Commander Gardner, even if you bring all the SHADOW guards here, you won't find the secrets. If you really must know, I suggest you go back to the Ether Mountain and ask that old man. Whether he tells you now or not, I cannot say."

"Huh?" Billy blinked. "That old man knows about this place?"

"Twenty years ago, we came here under his orders from the capital. Do you think he doesn't know?" Bessie said with a faint smile.

"If he knew about this, he would have told my boss a long time ago!" Judge said, clearly not believing them.

"I've already told you, the time hasn't come yet." Arthur shrugged.

"Are you trying to trick us and then move the secret elsewhere? I'm pretty sure there's some treasure here!" Stout was skeptical as well.

"Once we've thoroughly searched this little courtyard, you'll see!" Stout turned to Billy. "Don't trust him, boss, this old man is up to no good! Let's search every nook and cranny here first!"

"Ridiculous, if you disrespect Mr Fowler again, I..." one of the two women interrupted, her tone icy, and the other woman's expression was equally unpleasant.

"What, you two want to fight me too? But sorry, I don't fight women," Stout shrugged and turned to Night Orchid and Frostblade. "Ladies, I'll leave these two to you. No need to show any mercy, give them a good lesson!"

"You..." both women protested simultaneously.

"Enough!" Bessie waved her hand and then looked at Billy. "Commander Gardner, things here are not as simple as they seem. Even if you find out now, it won't be of any use. Please go back." "When the time is right, you'll understand." Arthur added.

Billy glanced at Arthur and Bessie, his eyes narrowing slightly, but he didn't say anything. Since they had mentioned his father, he no longer doubted their words. Perhaps, as they said, his father hadn't had the chance to tell him yet.

At that moment, Billy's phone rang. He picked it up and saw that it was a call from lan Blade.

"lan, what's going on?" Billy answered the call with a faint smile.

"There's trouble!" lan's voice sounded urgent.

"What's happened?" Billy was surprised. Ian had only been in the capital for a few days. What could have gone wrong so quickly?

"Mr Mitchell has been murdered!" lan replied.

"What?!" Billy raised his voice. "When did it happen?"

"An hour ago."

"What exactly happened?"

"He went out this afternoon, met someone at a teahouse. As soon as he got out of his car and approached the teahouse's entrance, two men stopped him. They didn't say a word, just attacked him. Their skills were superior to Mr Mitchell's. In less than two minutes, one of them punched through his heart."

"Damn it!" Billy furrowed his brow. "Did they leave any clues?"

"No! After they succeeded, they fled the scene. The surveillance system shows they drove to the outskirts and disappeared in a blind spot. I had their pictures run through the system, but no matches came up. They must have used disguises."

"You arrange for someone to find out who Stan was meeting at the teahouse and keep an eye on them when you do find out." Billy instructed after a moment of thought.

"I've already got people working on it."

"Good! I'll be there soon. We'll talk more when we meet!" Billy said and hung up the phone.
