Maria Murphy received the call and quickly arrived at the alley.
When she saw those three cold corpses, her face turned deathly pale.
Even her breath almost stopped.
The deceased were none other than the three young masters of the Wright Family!
This matter was huge, so big that it might cause the entire Brooksdale to shake!
This was no ordinary earthquake, a mere person couldn't bear it!
Maria Murphy squatted down, examining the injuries of several people, her eyebrows furrowed.
The methods used were too brutal, practically torture; if that person from the Wright Family found out, he would be furious!
"Tyler, tell me everything that happened just now, every detail, don't leave anything out!"
Maria Murphy was extremely serious.
"Yes, Miss! Just now, Mr. Johnson came to the alley..."
After Tyler recounted everything that had happened, an unprecedented fear appeared in Maria Murphy's eyes.
With one hand, one move, he severed the arms of two Grandmasters from the Wright Family!
One person, just one person, exterminated three entire Martial Arts experts!
Ruthless, killing Grandmasters as if slaughtering chickens!
This kind of impossible thing had just happened.
The key point was that it happened to a young man about twenty years old!
She didn't know how David Johnson did it; she only knew the consequences of this were unimaginable!
Without further hesitation, she called her father.
This matter developed to a point where it was simply not for her to decide.
After hanging up the phone, Maria Murphy instructed Tyler, "Dispose of the bodies, and then send a clean-background person to the Wright Family! When it's done, erase all evidence, including the person sent."
Tyler was taken aback: "Send to the Wright Family? Doesn't that mean confrontation..."
Maria Murphy looked at the three bodies, her eyes extremely heavy, and muttered, "This matter is beyond the control of my family, if the Wright Family still discovers David Johnson, we can only stand by and watch, what David Johnson did, he will have to endure himself!"
"Yes, Miss!"
...
Cosmic Coffee coffee shop.
Jessica Brown was stirring her coffee absentmindedly, and only when David Johnson appeared did she let out a sigh of relief.
For some reason, she felt a vague sense of worry.
When I appeared in front of her, her worries vanished, and she said with a slightly angry tone: "David Johnson, why is your restroom time getting longer, a full ten minutes, look, the coffee is cold!"
I smiled gently, completely different from the murderous aura in the alley earlier.
Then, I directly picked up the coffee on the table and gulped it down.
Seeing this, Jessica Brown's beautiful eyes widened.
In her whole life, she had never seen anyone drink coffee like water.
I put down the cup, directly took Jessica Brown's hand, and regardless of whether she was willing, headed outside.
I hailed a taxi and said to the driver, "Driver, to The Grandview Apartments."
Not sure if there were any Wright Family members there, better to leave first.
While in the car, I sent a text to Daniel Johnson, asking him to send more people to protect Jessica Brown and Sarah Moore, also inquiring about the three major Martial Families in Brooksdale and the rumored Grandmaster List.
I found the Wright Family to be even trickier than I had imagined.
Because Eldoria's ancient Martial Cultivation system had been incomplete from early on.
It's divided into Outer Strength, Inner Strength, Small Success in Inner Strength, Great Success in Inner Strength, Peak of Inner Strength, Half-step Transformation, Transformation Grandmaster.
At its core, it's three major realms: Outer Strength, Inner Strength, Transformation, with each major realm further subdivided into several smaller realms.
But after Transformation, there are no subdivisions, simply called Grandmaster.
The strength of Grandmasters varies, leading to the establishment of a Aethelgard Grandmaster List to differentiate strength levels.
This realm division has led to the stagnation of Eldoria's ancient martial strength.
It's truly not as clear as my own cultivation realms, with Body Tempering Realm, Awakening Realm, Qi Convergence Realm, Separation and Reunion Realm, True Essence Realm, etc., each realm divided into nine layers!
So clear.
Currently, I'm at the fifth layer of the Awakening Realm, almost stepping into the sixth layer.
If ranked by this Aethelgard Grandmaster List, there should be no problem being in the top 500.
I actually hoped Frank Rivera would come for me, then I could figure out the true weight of this Aethelgard Grandmaster List.
Half an hour later, we finally arrived at The Grandview Apartments.
Sarah Moore, who had prepared dinner, was a bit surprised that we came back together, but didn't think much of it, likely thinking we met in the elevator.
During dinner, Sarah Moore thought of something and teased me: "Little David, our summer beauty's birthday is next week, have you thought about what to give to make the beauty smile?"
Jessica Brown also looked at me expectantly.
I picked some food with my chopsticks, playfully said: "These days, what gifts are needed, just send a WeChat red packet, it's all about the thought."
As I spoke, I felt someone stomp on my foot fiercely! Looking up, I saw Jessica Brown's eyes almost shooting sparks.
"Just kidding, just kidding, well, Sarah, what are you going to give..." I changed the subject.
Sarah Moore blinked her big eyes at Jessica Brown and said: "Hmm, for a woman, of course, something that suits a woman..."
Jessica Brown, seeing that Sarah Moore was also teasing her, felt both shy and embarrassed, quickly put down her chopsticks, and rushed towards Sarah Moore.
"Sarah, I'm going to measure your size right now."
The two women started playing around, giving me a good look at the spring view.
Before long, my phone rang, it was an unfamiliar number, I frowned and pressed the answer key.
"Mr. Johnson, this is Stephanie Martin, I... I hope I'm not disturbing you... Could you... could you save my grandfather? I really have no other way!"
On the other end of the phone came Stephanie Martin's urgent voice, and she began to sob. She seemed utterly helpless.
"What exactly happened? Where are you right now?"
I learned from various people at the auction that there was a problem with the Martin Family, but didn't realize it was such a big problem.
I knew Stephanie Martin's character; under ordinary circumstances, she would never call me.
"Mr. Johnson, I'm at the Martin Family villa at 211 Ashton Road, my grandfather..."
Stephanie Martin didn't finish her sentence before there was a commotion on her end, and the call was abruptly disconnected.
Something happened!
I didn't hesitate, quickly put on my jacket, told the two women, and left.
...
211 Ashton Road, Wright Family villa, brightly lit.
As I got out of the taxi, I immediately noticed the villa was surrounded by people.
A thick, heavy atmosphere seeped from inside the villa.
Several cars were parked outside.
As I got out of the taxi, a dozen or so presences locked onto me.
Absolutely icy.
I even felt a thermal weapon aimed at me from the rooftop.
If I made any suspicious move, I would certainly be shot in the head.
What on earth had happened to the Martin Family to involve such forces?
Moreover, judging by the situation, the matter had reached a grave stage.
