Chapter 657
Despite having his back against Emmanuel, he knew the latter had stopped.
With that, he roared in anger, “What are you doing still standing there, Lowe?!
Leave!”
“To think you can be so reliable, big guy. Let’s have a drink together some
other time.” Emmanuel smiled knowingly and dashed away with Claudette in
his arms.
Quintus, too, grinned. Emmanuel Lowe... As expected from my mortal enemy!
“Quick! Shoot him! Don’t let that man leave alive!” Reginald shouted while
coughing up blood. After all, he knew the person Magnus wanted dead was
Emmanuel.
At that, the Lenoir family guards raised their guns. However, Quintus
immediately stood in the direction Emmanuel was leaving. He lifted his head
high and looked down on everyone like Mount Everest.
“If you want to shoot, you’ll have to go through me! This is the Lenoir
residence. Think carefully about whom you’re serving!” Quintus roared like a
dragon, his voice deafening.
The guards immediately became uneasy and exchanged glances, but they
didn’t dare to make any rash movements. They all looked at Reginald.
“Damn it!” Reginald gritted his teeth. He didn’t expect the scion of the Lenoir
family to jump in and save Emmanuel at such a critical moment, causing his
plan to fail!
Aside, Laura silently watched the scene unfold. After seeing Emmanuel and
Claudette disappear, a subtle, enigmatic smile appeared on her lips.
The members of the Wolf Warrior Society were attracting firepower at the
northern gate, which was also known as the main entrance of Lenoir
residence. Meanwhile, the western gate was also blocked off, leaving
Emmanuel with no choice but to leave with Claudette through the nearest
southern gate.
He still hadn’t figured out which side Laura was truly on. If she was assisting
Mr. Magnus, then the rescue this night would be very difficult.
The prominent families in Zovince were truly inscrutable. Despite the vast
distance between them and the prominent Lenoir family of Yeringham, they
still managed to manipulate the latter.
If the Zelinsky family is truly the one plotting attacks on the Quillen family in
the shadows, how will Mackenzie and her family defend themselves next?
It was a smooth escape for Emmanuel as the guards had been deployed
elsewhere. He jumped over the southern gate with Claudette in his arms and
left the Lenoir residence. However, before he could even catch his breath, he
suddenly stood still, even taking a few steps back with Claudette still in his
arms.
In front of them, another familiar face was waiting for him.
“Hehe, Mr. Lowe, you truly have remarkable skills! I didn’t expect you to come
this far with Ms. Lenoir!” Blue Rose sneered. “Too bad you insisted on opposing
Mr. Magnus. As formidable as you are, you’re attempting the impossible!”
Emmanuel smirked in response, not one to back down easily. “For someone
who lost to me, where do you get the courage to say such things to me?”
“From my ruthlessness and viciousness, of course!” Blue Rose grinned
confidently.
Clap! Clap!
She gently clapped twice, and several agile women appeared around her.
“These are all disciples I have trained. Though we alone aren’t a match for
you, as the saying goes, even a fierce tiger cannot withstand a pack of
wolves, not to mention you also have to protect Ms. Lenoir at the same time”
Blue Rose said, her gaze suddenly turning cold. “Let me remind you, Mr. Lowe
-we have received orders from Mr. Magnus. We are here to kill both you and
Ms. Lenoir. If you put her down, we won’t show any mercy toward her!”
Emmanuel smiled again, but this time, a hint of bitterness laced his lips. The
situation had become rather problematic.
“Attack!” Blue Rosee signaled the five women in blue to attack Emmanuel with
awave of her hand.
As expected of Blue Rose’s carefully trained disciples, each of them moved
with great agility, and their strikes were vicious. Emmanuel, while holding onto
Claudette, found it difficult to defend against all of them at once. In just a few
moves, his flesh was torn open by the women’s sharp nails, leaving several
bloody wounds.
“Oh, my, Mr. Lowe, you appear quite disheveled.” Blue Rose smirked smugly.
“Mr. Magnus was right. In this world, victory doesn’t belong to the strongest
fighter but to those who strategize and scheme.”
“Is that so?”
While she was speaking, Emmanuel suddenly emanated a powerful burst of
energy, his expression disdainful as he responded to her words.
The women approached him once again, but Emmanuel unleashed a
powerful inner force, sending them flying.
Thump! Thump! Thump!
The women fell to the ground simultaneously, sustaining significant injuries.
“I’ve said it before as well, Ms. Blue Rose. At the end of the day, flashy moves
aren’t the way to go. Power and determination can overcome everything.”
