YM778.TV Chapter 444: One Against Five (Part 1)
When his wrist was seized by Julius Reed, Royden Reed was shocked.
The opponent moved too quickly, and he was completely unprepared!
And those bodyguards were too far away to get there in time!
“Don’t you know what I’m going to do?”
Julius Reed said to Royden Reed with a faint smile, “I’m a man of my word. Today, I said I’d cripple one of your arms, and that’s exactly what I’m going to do!”
Crack!
He violently twisted it upwards, snapping Royden Reed’s arm!
“Ah…”
Royden Reed screamed in agony, his body curling up instantly.
The broken bone protruded through the skin, visible through his clothes, a gruesome sight!
“If there is a next time, I will break all your limbs!”
Julius Reed pointed at Dempsey Davenport, “Now, you can try hitting her and see if my words hold true.”
Royden Reed was in no state to think about hitting anyone, only feeling cold sweat pouring down, his body trembling incessantly.
The pain from his severed arm almost made him pass out.
“Get him! Kill him!”
Royden Reed roared in anger.
He was crouched on the ground, his complexion ashen.
Blood continuously dripped from his wrist onto the ground
Royden Reed bit down on the collar of his Sun Yat-sen suit, his eyes filled with bloodshot veins.
Yet he still yearned to see the scene of Julius Reed being beaten to death.
Although this was happening on the streets, there was no one around at this time.
The bodyguards, radiating a murderous aura, were ready to kill on receiving Royden Reed’s orders. Their attacks were lethal moves!
“Be careful!”
Dempsey Davenport cautioned, “These men are extremely skilled, all elites trained by Grandfather! When over a hundred people surrounded them, not even five could overcome them!”
In the Davenport Family, these five men were a symbol of power!
Wherever the old man went, these five would follow!
Their presence in Gonzalez City now signified that it was the old man’s will!
“Haha! Dempsey Davenport, today I want you to watch with your own eyes as this man gets beaten to death… Ah… it hurts!”
Although Royden Reed felt the thrill of vengeance, the searing pain in his arm nearly caused him to bite his tongue off.
They say each finger is connected to the heart, let alone an entire arm!
A compound fracture!
However, facing the onslaught from these men, Julius Reed acted as if nothing was wrong. One hand behind his back, he crooked the fingers of his other hand: “Come at me together.”
“You’re courting death!”
The bodyguards were completely enraged!
They were masters among masters, commanding nearly the same level of respect as the old man at the Davenport’s in the capital!
And now, a young man dared to scorn them so!
Whoosh!
The five men directly circled to attack, some aiming high, others low!
And one even aimed a punch directly at Julius Reed’s face!
Dempsey Davenport watched from the side, her heart pounding, hands clasped in silent prayer for Julius Reed.
“A bunch of good-for-nothings!”
Crack!
Julius Reed kicked out, breaking one man’s left leg!
Then his single fist thundered out, crushing the fingers of the forefront bodyguard!
Bang! Bang! Bang!
After doing all this, he appeared behind the three men like a specter, his fists hammering down viciously!
And then a kick launched into mid-air!
All done in one breath!
Whoosh!
Julius Reed took a moment to catch his breath.
On the ground lay five broken men!
From strike to finish, it lasted less than five seconds!
“You… who on earth are you!”
By then, Royden Reed had already forgotten the pain in his arm!
Because buried deep in his heart was an even deeper fear!
Was this person or a ghost?
The five bodyguards of the Davenport Family were formidable, even experienced fighters were no match for them!
Yet now, in the span of a few breaths, all five lay on the ground, completely devoid of their ability to fight!
Hiss!
Royden Reed sucked in a breath of cold air, feeling a chill rush straight to his crown!
“Don’t… don’t come any closer…”
He was so scared that he collapsed directly onto the ground, one hand propping up his body, while his legs ceaselessly kicked backwards, trying to flee.
But it was utterly useless, for every step Julius Reed took made Royden Reed feel utterly hopeless…
But he was not willing to give up, or rather, not willing to face the consequences.
Finally, Julius Reed walked up to him and slowly squatted down.
“I’m one of the Davenport Family… if you dare touch me, the Davenport Family won’t let you off…”
As he spoke, Royden Reed trembled and said, “And the Leocadia Family! If Jaxson Leocadia finds out about you and Dempsey Davenport, neither of you will live!”
The Leocadia Family of Gonzalez City were truly a powerful clan!
Everyone knew that!
Now Royden Reed used the power of the Leocadia Family to pressure Julius Reed, hoping to scare him into hesitation.
However…
What he didn’t know was whether the Leocadia Family really counted as a powerful clan in the eyes of the Young Master of Ten Thousand Mountain Alliance?
To speak frankly, the janitors of Ten Thousand Mountain Alliance were hundreds of times stronger than this so-called powerful clan!
“I did more than just touch you, I hit you.”
Julius Reed pointed to Royden Reed’s arm: “Look, I broke one of your arms, and now I’ve beaten all the bodyguards you brought to a pulp. To be honest, the Davenport Family is nothing in my eyes!”
Slap!
Julius Reed slapped Royden Reed across the face: “Today you told me to get lost, the people who said that in the past are almost all dead.”
He smiled faintly, but that smile sent shivers down Royden Reed’s spine.
In front of him was not a person, but the Devil!
“Let me go… I beg of you, as long as you release me, I promise to keep today’s events a secret. And about Dempsey Davenport, I’ll explain everything to the old master when I get back, ensuring no one will bother you again.”
Seeing that being tough was futile, the desperate Royden Reed began to beg, having lost his initial edge.
“Please! Give me a chance… Amanda, plead for me… Have you forgotten how good I was to you when you were little…”
He turned his plea towards Dempsey Davenport.
“Julius Reed, she is, after all, my uncle.”
As she said this, Dempsey Davenport took a deep breath and turned around: “Just spare his life, and I’ll consider myself in your debt.”
The two were neither kin nor kindred; why should she ask anything of Julius Reed?
But it was also a helpless request.
Living was a luxury.
“Alright then.”
Julius Reed smiled and stood up, looking at Royden Reed: “I’ll spare your life, but I promise, you’ll wish you were dead.”
“Thank you… thank you so much… Ah!”
Before Royden Reed could finish expressing his gratitude, Julius Reed’s foot came crashing down, instantly crushing both of Royden Reed’s legs!
The intense pain erupted like a volcanic explosion, causing Royden Reed to faint on the spot.
With compound fractures like that, amputation was the only option, he would never stand again.
“Big brother, what’s going on?”
Just then, a car stopped by the road, and as Aron Jackson saw the people lying on the ground, he rushed out of the car.
“A bit of a nuisance, can you protect her for me?”
Julius Reed motioned towards Dempsey Davenport, after all, Quella Radcliffe’s best friend in Gonzalez City, Aron Jackson, wanted to protect her, the Davenport Family wouldn’t dare touch her.
“Understood! What about these people?”
Aron Jackson glanced at the black-clad bodyguards wailing in pain at his feet and made a throat-slitting gesture.
“Leave this old guy alive, let him go back and send a message. The rest, see if your blades are sharp enough.”
After Julius Reed had finished speaking, the bodyguards on the ground turned ashen.
