Chapter 684
He was courting death.
Hearing the other end of the call, Gavin Clifford’s heart was filled with anger. This Ancient Martial Arts Cooper family was
probably about to die. He actually dared to kidnap his fiancée.
Moreover, she even dared to call him to threaten him. She did a good job.
Gavin Clifford naturally did not know who the man on the other end of the phone was. However, his voice sounded very
weathered. He was probably in his fifties or sixties. Gavin Clifford did not know who he was.
However, judging from this man’s tone and his weathered voice, he shouldn’t be a servant. If he guessed correctly, this person
was very likely Simeon Cooper.
After hanging up, Milano Potter looked at Gavin Clifford’s cold expression. She could roughly guess what the call was. It should
be from Ancient Martial Arts Cooper family, and this call was obviously very unfriendly.
Otherwise, Brother Gavin Clifford would not have such a dark expression on his face, as if the entire world was ostracizing him.
Milano Potter guessed that this call must be related to Layla Taylor. Otherwise, Brother Gavin Clifford would not be so angry. In
the end, it was all her fault for not handling this matter well. She had already saved Layla Taylor.
Forget it, now was not the time to blame himself. Even if he kept blaming himself, Layla Taylor would not be able to come back
now. Then, Milano Potter looked at Gavin Clifford and said,
“Brother Gavin Clifford, what did the call say?”
“Do you know where Layla is?”
Hearing Milano Potter’s words, Gavin Clifford also lowered his head. His eyes were filled with anger. In an instant, he looked at
Milano Potter and said,
“Milano Potter, this call is from Ancient Martial Arts Cooper family. I suspect that this man is the head of Cooper family, Simeon
Cooper.”
“He’s probably trying to kill Layla Taylor.”
Hearing Gavin Clifford’s words, Milano Potter was stunned on the spot. As expected, he was from Ancient Martial Arts Cooper
family.
Moreover, Layla Taylor was now in the hands of the family head of Ancient Martial Arts Cooper family. He had to bite the bullet. If
something really happened to Layla Taylor, he would feel guilty for the rest of his life.
Milano Potter looked at Gavin Clifford standing in front of him and said,
“Brother Gavin Clifford, let’s hurry up and find Layla.”
“It’s all my fault for not protecting her well.”
When Gavin Clifford heard Milano Potter’s words, he shook his head and said,
“Milano Potter, this has nothing to do with you. If you have to blame someone, should be me...”
“The patriarch of Ancient Martial Arts Cooper family, Simeon Cooper, has always blamed me for killing his three sons.”
“So if he wanted revenge on me, he attacked the people around me. That’s how they always do it.”
Milano Potter looked at Gavin Clifford and his expression softened. He knew that the person Cooper family was looking for was
him. He should be in pain now!
Then, Milano Potter held Gavin Clifford’s hand and looked at Gavin Clifford. He smiled back and said,
“Brother Gavin Clifford, don’t say that. I believe Layla doesn’t want to hear you say that either.”
“All of this was caused by Ancient Martial Arts Cooper family.”
When Gavin Clifford heard Milano Potter’s words, he nodded. In fact, all of this was because of him. He had promised Layla that
he would protect her. He did not expect. that he would still put Layla in danger.
Then, he saw that the man in black in front was also staring at him in a daze. Then, Gavin Clifford said,
“Continue leading the way!”
When the men in black heard Gavin Clifford’s words, they quickly turned around and the way until they passed by a forest. It was
surrounded by fog and looked very sinister.
Gavin Clifford observed the surroundings and confirmed that there were no suspicious people or anything suspicious.
The fog was like a door between Arcane World and Secular World. After through here, it would be Arcane World.
At this moment, the men in black were already exhausted. They saw a river over there and looked at Gavin Clifford.
“Big Brother, you must be thirsty after walking for so long. Shall we get you some water?”
“This river is more famous, and it’s very clear and sweet.”
Gavin Clifford looked at the men in black in front of him and waved his hand. He could not feel his current mood even if he did
not eat or drink. Then, he said,
“You don’t have to find a reason with me. Just say hello if you’re thirsty. You don’t have to pretend to ask me!”
“I don’t need you to flatter me. It’s better to do what I tell you to do seriously.”
The men in black were stunned when they heard Gavin Clifford’s words.
It wasn’t that they didn’t know what Gavin Clifford meant, but over the years, almost all the servants of Ancient Martial Arts
Cooper family had been fawning over Cooper family’s master.
This was because they felt that if they wanted to survive in Ancient Martial Arts Cooper family, they had to learn how to be a
good dog.
But when it came to Gavin Clifford, it didn’t apply.
When the men in black heard what Gavin Clifford said, they did not speak and only nodded silently.
Then, they got up and went to the river to get water. There was no one following them.
They even looked back as they walked to the river. Gavin Clifford really did not send anyone to follow them.
Then, these men in black came to the river and drank water while discussing.
“Do you think Gavin Clifford is really not afraid that we’ll run away?”
“If we really leave, doesn’t that mean that Gavin Clifford and the others don’t have a guide? Are they that optimistic?”
At this moment, another man muttered,
“In my opinion, Gavin Clifford’s ability is not something that you and I can see with our naked eyes.”
“To be able to let us walk so far to drink water so easily, he doesn’t have any worries about us escaping.”
“Besides, I think he might have a way to catch us no matter where we go.”
The other man in black who was drinking water suddenly raised his head and said,
“Is Gavin Clifford really that amazing?”
The other men in black smiled and looked at the man.
“Why don’t you try?”
“We definitely won’t reveal your whereabouts. We didn’t see you when we were drinking water, so you can run freely.”
When the man in black heard this, he actually hesitated. He wanted to be free and unfettered, but if he was caught by Gavin
Clifford, he would probably die.
Immediately after, the man in black shook his head helplessly and said,
“Forget it. Although I want to, I cherish my life!”
“If they really capture me and kill me, they might as well settle for the current situation. Perhaps they will pity us and not make
things too difficult for us.”
“Actually, now that I think about it, this Gavin Clifford isn’t the kind of devil that th rumors say he is. At the very least, we won’t go
against him and he won’t target us.”
At this moment, a few men in black walked over and hugged the man in black.
“Actually, we have a plan for the next few days. We’ll follow Gavin Clifford like this. At the very least, we’ll be Transcendent.”
“There’s no need to return to Ancient Martial Arts Cooper family to be a dog.”
“If we really run away, even if no one chases us, whether we can survive or not will be a problem.”
“So, I’m glad you think so"
