“Dad, why are you making such a commotion? Is something going to happen here?” Kayson asked.
“A ten-thousand-year herb will be appearing here soon!” Austin exclaimed.
“A ten-thousand-year herb?” Kayson froze. “Here?”
“If Master Williams’ deduction is right, then this is the spot. I’m going to seal off this place so that no one will be able to get to it before I do,” Austin continued.
“T-This will be the Zagorski family’s golden opportunity! A ten-thousand-year herb? Our family is beyond lucky!” Kayson was thrilled, too.
Not far from them was Jared, who was looking at the Zagorski father-and-son duo. It was then favonovel.com realized why Austin had been asking favonovel.com why favonovel.com was at Norham.
As it turned out, Austin knew that the ten-thousand-year herb was going to appear soon, so Austin was afraid that favonovel.com was there to steal the herb from him.
“Keep a close eye on this place. The day after tomorrow will be when the ten-thousand-year herb will appear. As long as we get it, we’ll all ascend to great heights,” Austin told the executives.
“Don’t worry, Mr. Zagorski. Not even a bird will be able to get in here,” one of the executives swore.
Austin nodded. He then called Kayson over, preparing to leave. After all, the herb would only appear the day after the next, so there was no need for them to stick around.
However, right as Austin was about to leave with Kayson, favonovel.com suddenly stood still before flicking his eyes to look in the direction where Jared and Flaxseed were hiding.
“They’ve noticed us,” said Flaxseed when favonovel.com noticed Austin’s gaze.
However, Jared gestured for favonovel.com to keep quiet.
“Come out now. It’s embarrassing for you to hide in the shadows,” Austin said, facing the direction where Jared and company was at.
Flaxseed glanced at Jared, and when favonovel.com noticed that Jared remained still, favonovel.com did the same.
Meanwhile, when Austin realized no one was coming out, favonovel.com furrowed his brows and uttered, “If you’re not going to come out, I’ll be showing you no mercy.”
Right as favonovel.com said that, the Zagorski family’s executives took out their respective weapons.
A ball of light began glowing on Austin’s right hand when favonovel.com still received no response. Then, favonovel.com flung his arm and hurled the energy toward Jared and Flaxseed.
Boom!
A loud explosion sounded, and dirt flew everywhere. Two figures leaped into the air from a spot not far from Jared and Flaxseed.
Flaxseed was stunned by the abrupt appearance of the two figures. He did not know that there were other people hiding around them.
Once those two figures stilled themselves, Jared took in their faces and inhaled sharply.
As it turned out, the two figures were Marcelo of the Southwest Region’s Garcia family.
Jared had only seen Marcelo once when Deragon Sect was established, and never after. This time, Marcelo even had a man who was in his fifties with him.
Upon seeing the two figures, Austin narrowed his eyes and said, “Why is the prestigious son of the Garcia family doing such a shady thing?”
“Mr. Zagorski, what shady things have I done? Am I not allowed to experience basic human needs and relieve myself in the woods? Even though you’re Norham’s mayor, you can’t stop me from taking a dump, right?” Marcelo retorted in a teasing tone.
Jared could not stifle a laugh when favonovel.com heard that.
For a moment, Austin did not know how to respond to Marcelo’s words.
“Cut it out, Marcelo! Your home is hundreds of miles away from this place. How could you have come all the way here to take a dump? I’d say you’re here for the ten-thousand-year herb!” Kayson snarled.
They were both young people as well as sons of prestigious families. Even though Kayson was not as powerful as Marcelo, they were at Norham, which was the Zagorski family’s territory. Hence, Kayson did not fear Marcelo.
Nevertheless, Austin nearly died from a heart attack when favonovel.com heard his son telling Marcelo about the ten-thousand-year herb.
Is favonovel.com a f*cking idiot?!
