Chapter 1201: The Deal with Rafael

"Yes, I am."

Rafael immediately realized that their visit today was likely related to his identity, and he couldn’t help but worry that they might be here for revenge.

"Rest assured, Mr. Rafael, we are not here for revenge."

Rafael looked up and met Kenny Lin’s half-smiling, half-mocking gaze.

Fortunately, he was no stranger to tough situations, and despite feeling uneasy, he managed to force a smile.

"Then, why have Ms. Amalia and Mr. Kenny come to see me?"

"Mr. Rafael, the truth is, I am here regarding the Vanquez family that was exterminated." Amalia’s gaze fixed steadily on Rafael. "Over twenty years ago, the largest branch of Sable Andalus League was located on Planet Veloxia. With Sable Andalus League’s intelligence capabilities, I assume you must know something about it?"

"This..." Rafael hesitated.

"Don’t worry, Mr. Rafael. In the spirit of fair trade, I won’t let you suffer. If the answer satisfies me, I will provide you with what you need," Amalia said calmly.

Rafael’s heart stirred slightly. "To be honest, it’s not that I don’t want to speak. It’s just that over twenty years ago, my father was in charge of Sable Andalus League. I hadn’t risen to power back then. I don’t know about the Vanquez family’s situation. I will need to investigate to find out."

"Then I’ll trouble you, Mr. Rafael." Amalia glanced at his body briefly, then tossed him a bottle from her palm. "This is an initial payment."

Rafael grabbed the bottle and immediately sensed that it likely contained cultivation pills.

His soul trembled, but he held himself in check and reluctantly threw the bottle back.

"Ms. Amalia, the matter hasn’t been investigated yet. I can’t guarantee that Sable Andalus League has any information. You should take this back for now. If we do find the information you’re looking for, I’ll be sure to give it to you then."

Amalia raised an eyebrow in surprise but smiled as she put the bottle away. "Since that’s the case, I’ll await good news from Mr. Rafael."

After saying this, she and Kenny Lin left first.

"Boss, why did you give back the things you got?" Yevon, who had witnessed it firsthand, asked, clearly confused.

Rafael shot him a glare. "What do you know? What if the information they want is something we don’t have? If we let go of something we’ve gotten, what would you do?"

Yevon, still puzzled, shook his head. "Probably... not that happy about it."

"However, our previous rules weren’t like this."

Yevon didn’t understand.

How could something that had already been in their hands be returned?

Rafael immediately retorted, "If you swallow someone else’s things, do you think they could just snap their fingers and kill you?"

"Uh, it seems like they could."

Yevon recalled the scene where Ms. Amalia and Mr. Kenny destroyed the alien spaceship; he knew he’d never be able to do that.

"Then next time, don’t say something that makes me want to punch you," Rafael said. "Now, go out immediately, contact Romero, and tell him to come see me right now."

"Boss, aren’t you at odds with Romero? Do you think he’ll obediently come to see you?" Yevon asked, puzzled.

Rafael sneered, "Tell him I’m working for the Ms. Amalia and Mr. Kenny right now. Let’s see if he dares not come."

Yevon’s eyes lit up. "Right, I’ll go now."

"This Rafael is able to endure his desire very well. He knows that it’s valuable, but still returned it."

After leaving his residence, Kenny Lin smirked.

"Someone who managed to grow Sable Andalus League this large wouldn’t be a person with weak willpower."

However, Amalia didn’t think any less of him because of that action.

"I wonder if he can find any clues about the Vanquez family," Kenny Lin muttered.

Although they had learned that Sable Andalus League might know something, he wasn’t sure, and he didn’t want to see Amalia’s disappointed expression.

"I hope he can find something."

Amalia had already decided not to leave until the truth behind the Vanquez family’s massacre was resolved.

Kenny Lin escorted her back, and after she entered the small world to continue teaching the weaker "citizens," he walked out alone, leisurely strolling to Rafael’s door.

"It’s you. How come...?" Rafael appeared surprised when he saw Kenny Lin coming back so soon after leaving.

"You’re wondering why I’m back?" Kenny Lin walked toward him with a smile. "How confident are you in finding clues about the Vanquez family’s massacre?"

Rafael’s heart sank.

The tone clearly carried a hint of threat.

If he wasn’t confident, this man might take action.

After a moment of thought, he replied, "I should have about sixty percent confidence."

Kenny Lin seemed displeased with that answer. "Only sixty percent?"

Rafael sighed helplessly. "If I hadn’t been injured, I would have had about eighty percent confidence."

Kenny Lin smiled faintly. "What does your injury have to do with it?"

Rafael gritted his teeth. "My father, the former leader of Sable Andalus League, passed away two years ago. At that time, he had a trusted subordinate, a cultivator stronger than me. Since my father passed on the leadership to me, it caused dissatisfaction in that subordinate, and for the past two years, he has been opposing me at every turn, even recruiting many of Sable Andalus League’s old members..."

Kenny Lin interrupted him, "What does this have to do with finding clues about the Vanquez family? Don’t try to deceive me and cause trouble. You wouldn’t want to know my methods if you did."

"Me. Kenny, how could I dare deceive you?" Rafael quickly explained, "My father had a secret vault, which contained treasures and some confidential files. Only I knew its location. However, one of the keys to the vault was stolen, and I’ve always suspected it was that subordinate of my father’s. He’s been eyeing the vault for a long time and has sent people to spy on it. If you doesn’t believe me, you can go ask around."
