Chapter 495 Scratching An Itch
“Hmph. Insolent fool!”
Up against that mountain of a man, Bruce’s eyes suddenly blinked. In place of the whiteness that permeated his pupils before was a black sprightliness—The clarity in his eyes showed he was never blind in the first place!
“Arghhh!” Roaring, that colossus launched a fist right at him!
He niftily dodged that blow and aimed one into the man’s back!
Bam!
Akin to a hammer upon steel, a resounding thump ensued. he was sent staggering back several paces outright, with his hand tingling with numbness!
“So, you practice the martial discipline of invulnerability!” Bruce broke into a slight furrow.
Enraged after getting struck, the large man turned and strode forth once more in Bruce’s direction, with every step of his pounding resoundingly upon the ground like an earthquake.
“Hmph!” With a snort, two streams of black smoke burst out from between Bruce’s dancing fingers and straight for that colossus.
The large man saw them coming and tried to take evasive countermeasures, but those two black streams shot up his nose like specters, causing him to clutch at his own throat in an expression of shock and obvious pain!
Pfft!
One mouthful of spurted blood later, the two-meter-tall body came crashing onto the ground. The large man’s gawking eyes, as well as every single orifice on his body, oozed crimson. Apparently, he was dead from poisoning!
Be it the Snyders or the Larsons, the two families began to see casualties, collapsing to the ground and succumbing to those same symptoms in short order.
Confronted with the scene that played out before them, Jayden and Cristopher both became shocked in equal measure!
“Hahaha. Pitting yourselves against me? For not taking the chance I’ve gifted you before with both hands, all of you shall perish here this day!” Isaiah guffawed at Jayden and Cristophe who had, at this moment, become lambs to the slaughter.
The latter pair had an awful expression on their faces. Finally, the hapless Cristopher exhaled. “I’m willing to relinquish the Larsons’ control of the vein mine over to you, and henceforth retire away from Salinsburgh!”
His compromise left Jayden looking even more distraught!
“What about you, Jayden?” The sneering Isaiah regarded Jayden with frivolity.
Jayden gnashed his teeth. With his own forces almost completely spent, he had no chance of turning the tide no matter how capable he was. His only way out was to relent and beg for mercy.
“I, too, will do likewise!” said Jayden with his head bowed.
“Hahaha! Hahaha…” Isaiah reared his head and laughed a pompous laugh.
His cackling made Jayden and Cristopher feel like they were being trampled savagely underfoot. From this day on, it would seem that there would be no place left for the Snyders and the Larsons in all of Salinsburgh!
“I may spare you yet, Jayden. Your famous daughter Tessa looks like she could make for good company. Leave her with me for a day or two, then I’ll let you both walk away when I tire of her!” said Isaiah after he recollected himself.
Jayden went blue in the face upon hearing that. To think that even forsaking everything to his name was not enough to get Isaiah to let him off.
“We’ve been acquainted for so many years, Isaiah, to the point that Tessa almost saw you like her own uncle. How could you…” Jayden regarded him with his eyes boiling over with rage.
“Don’t try to cozy up with me with this nonsense about uncles and whatnot. I’ve long been enamored with your daughter’s salacious figure, so now is the time for me to scratch that itch!”
Isaiah looked at Tessa with a pair of brazen eyes.
“You knave. You monster…” she cussed at him, red in the face with fury.
Isaiah’s face stiffened. “For daring to swear at me, I shall have my way with you in front of all of them here today, wench!”
Upon a wave of his hand, two of the Fergusons’ underlings then dashed right for Tessa.
In spite of his best efforts, there was nothing Jayden could do to stop it!
Seized upon by the Fergusons’ two henchmen, the frail Tessa found herself dragged toward Isaiah!
