"Why are you telling me to do that?" Cassian asked as he gave Thiago a puzzled look.

They'd finally managed to unearth a clue regarding the assassins and were able to establish that it was the work of the Hexen Coven. Why was Thiago asking him to give up the investigation now?

Thiago replied, "I just told you that there's no line the Hexen Coven won't cross. They're a bunch of lunatics. I'm afraid that if you provoke them, they'll come after you."

"But if we stop now, you'll die in three days," Cassian argued.

Thiago let out a carefree laugh. "I'm already a dying man. It doesn't make much of a difference whether I die sooner rather than later."

"But I don't want to break one of my arms," Cassian said with a deadpan expression. "I mean, look at me. I'm a handsome man with a decent career. If I lose an arm, I'll be disabled. It'll be hard to even find a wife."

"That's still better than offending the Hexen Coven."

"Lord Drakeford, if we find the assassins and hand them over to Nino

    What? Anthony intended to entrust Rivershire to Cassian?Thiago and Claude weren't the only ones shocked. Even Cassian looked quite flabbergasted."Surely you must be joking, right, Mr. Kingsley?""Do I look like I'm joking?"Cassian nodded. "Yup!"For a moment, Anthony was speechless."Lord Drakeford, I just remembered that I still have work to deal with at the hospital. I need to leave now. Goodbye!"After saying his goodbyes to Thiago, Cassian made a beeline for the exit in hopes of scrambling away as soon as possible."Hold it right there!" Anthony commanded.Cassian didn't stop at all. Instead, he quickened his steps.Anthony continued, "If you insist on leaving, the promise I made shall be voided immediately."That was when Cassian halted in his tracks before slowly turning around to face Anthony, his expression conflicted."Mr. Kingsley, I do have work at the hospital. I still need to treat my patients, you know.""You really think I've never been to a hospital befo

    "Initially, Lord Drakeford still had a month to live after receiving my treatment. But just now, Kendrick had triggered the Two-Fanged Venom coursing within Lord Drakeford's veins. That's why he won't be able to live for long," Cassian explained.Claude immediately asked, "Then how long can he still hold on?""According to my estimation, he only has one week left. That's why we need to track down the person who can treat Lord Drakeford as soon as possible."Claude nodded grimly in response.Upon returning to Nimbus Peak, as soon as Thiago got out of the car, he asked Claude, "How's your injury?""I've made a full recovery.""A full recovery?" Thiago found it hard to believe Claude's words.So, Claude showed his arm to Thiago. Needless to say, Thiago was stunned to see Claude's arm as good as new, as though the gash never existed. Even his skin was smooth and flawless."Did Cassian treat your wound?""Yeah. He's an extremely skilled doctor," Claude replied.Thiago thought th

    A loud gunshot suddenly rang out.A fresh bullet wound could be seen occupying the spot between Kendrick's brows. He collapsed to the ground with a loud thud, now reduced to an unmoving corpse.Wait, Kendrick was dead?Cassian quickly turned around. It turned out that Claude had shot Kendrick earlier. Not only did he get rid of the Hexen Coven's members, but he also dealt with the blade-wielding people standing guard at the exit.One of his hands was bleeding, while the other clutched the gun tightly.Feeling quite paranoid, Cassian walked over to kick at Kendrick's cooling body twice. Only when he noted the lack of movement from Kendrick's form did he breathe a sigh of relief."Mr. Hudson, how's your wound?" Cassian asked after approaching Claude."I'm fine. This is nothing but a scratch."Claude shot a small smile at Cassian. During the fight, his arm had received a slash from a Hexen Coven member's weapon."Let me tend to your injury."After Cassian cleaned the blood off

    A loud crunch sounded the next moment. Apparently, Cassian's attack had succeeded in shattering Kendrick's cheekbone. All Kendrick could feel was intense pain flaring from his face.Of course, the injury meant nothing to him. Still, he was furious with Cassian's action.It was one thing to fight him, but it was another to stomp on his face!The furious Kendrick began howling at the top of his lungs. He was about to get up from the ground when he felt another gust of wind approaching his cheek rapidly.Fuck! Cassian was still trying to pull off the same stunt!"Go to hell!" Kendrick was quick to throw out a strong punch.Cassian quickly retreated from Kendrick. He had intended to strike when Kendrick was down, but he had no idea that Kendrick could still react just as quickly, even when injured.Kendrick slowly got up from the ground, his gaze firmly fixed on Cassian. He wanted nothing more than to skin the latter alive on the spot.Cassian clicked his tongue in response. With

    A loud thud sounded at the same time.Back in the Monastery of the Sacred Virtue, Cassian's form could be seen flying backward before crashing onto the ground. Due to the impact, he ended up spitting out a mouthful of blood. Cassian couldn't be bothered to check his injuries. All he could do was stare at Kendrick in a mix of fear and shock.Kendrick really was a troublesome opponent.During the showdown, Cassian had managed to overwhelm Kendrick with a flurry of quick attacks. He didn't expect to be blasted away by Kendrick after two minutes.In terms of close combat, Cassian wasn't afraid of Kendrick at all. In fact, he was confident that he could beat him.But what pissed him off the most was that Kendrick was equipped with strange martial arts skills. He was very sure that he had blocked Kendrick's attack earlier, but the next thing he knew, Kendrick's fist was able to spin 180 degrees on its own while relying on his wrist for support. It was that very move that caught Cassia

    Cassian ended up having to retreat for more than a dozen steps. He could feel the force running rampant in his chest, causing blood to trickle from the corner of his mouth.Shock and disbelief were written all over his face.What on earth was that skill? Just how terrifying was it?Under normal circumstances, when one threw out a punch, the force would travel from their arm to their wrist before flowing toward the fist.But Kendrick's arm and wrist didn't move at all just now. He was able to strike Cassian with the sole power stored in his fist. Not only that, but his fist and wrist could also gyrate on their own, as though they were free from the joint's confines.It was mind-shattering, to say the least. After all, a regular human being's fist could never spin around like a ball. But somehow, Kendrick was able to pull that off!Cassian's expression went grim. Then again, Kendrick was the Rivershire branch leader of the Hexen Coven, so it was only natural for him to be this skil
