Chapter 742: Chapter 742 Settling Accounts_1 Chapter 742: Chapter 742 Settling Accounts_1 Pfft!

A burst of blood exploded on the scene.

Christopher Dean only felt a pain in his chest and involuntarily collapsed to the ground. Looking down, he froze on the spot.

Because the seemingly ferocious blade light had only left a wound on his chest.

Though the wound was deep, it was not fatal.

He blankly raised his head and stared at Greg Jensen.

Greg had already sheathed his blade and swept his indifferent gaze over, coldly saying, “Know why I spared your life?”

Christopher was startled once again, just as he caught sight of the approaching Andrea Dean, and he suddenly came to a realization.

Grinding his teeth, he nodded and said, “I understand. From today on, Kiara is the next Family Head of the Dean Family!”

Boom!

As these words were uttered, it was as though a bomb had been dropped among the crowd, and there was an immediate uproar.

“Uncle, why should Andrea Dean be the Family Head?”

“She’s just a little girl who knows nothing. What qualifies her to be the Family Head?”

The people of the Dean Family were in an uproar, as if any other person would have been acceptable, but Andrea Dean was simply from a distant branch of the family.

Having her as the next Family Head immediately sparked dissatisfaction among many.

Ashley Dean’s face looked particularly displeased. If Kiara became the Family Head, would she still have good days ahead?

Calvin Dean’s face was even more overcast to the extreme.

He had always been groomed by his father as the next Family Head, and although it was never publicly acknowledged, many in the Dean Family had taken it as a given.

Now that the position of the next Family Head had been switched to Andrea Dean, how could he accept it?

In fact, Greg Jensen was also surprised by Christopher Dean’s decision.

He had initially planned to finish off Christopher Dean and subjugate all the dissatisfied members of the Dean Family before Kiara could take her position.

Unexpectedly, before Greg could speak out, Christopher had voluntarily made the announcement.

But after reflecting on it for a moment, Greg couldn’t help but feel relieved.

Andrea Dean was indeed intelligent and had excelled academically. Moreover, she had his support.

By her assuming the role of the next Family Head of the Dean Family, it was tantamount to bringing a powerful ally into the family, and they would no longer need to worry about Elixirs.

It had to be said, Christopher Dean’s ability to come up with such a beneficial solution in an instant was indeed extraordinary.

Christopher himself had come to understand this point and knew that Greg wouldn’t make a move against him anymore, so he relaxed and smilingly said:

“Barry Wolfe, are you satisfied with this outcome?”

Greg Jensen remained silent as he nodded, then turned to Elder Hu and sneered, “Elder Hu, now it’s time to settle our accounts.”

Elder Hu’s face changed, and he smirked, “I am an inner elder of Healington, do you dare to touch me?”

“You wanted to steal my Elixir Prescription, so why can’t I kill you?”

Greg Jensen sneered, “Moreover, I have already killed people from Healington before, what’s so strange about that?”

“You…”

Elder Hu had thought that by mentioning Healington, the young man before him would definitely not dare to act recklessly, but when he heard Greg’s response, his face changed dramatically.

Because he suddenly remembered that the Healington Master, Violet Robbins, had sent Keith Herbet and Archie Barnett to deal with the murderer of Curtis Milton.

Several months had passed without a word from the two elders.

Originally, they were thought to be still on the murderer’s trail, but now it seemed they might have already fallen victim.

“You… You are Barry Wolfe!”

Elder Hu suddenly came to his senses. No wonder the name had sounded so familiar; this man was the murderer who had killed Curtis Milton.

“That’s right, it’s me.”

Greg Jensen said indifferently, “Curtis Milton wanted to seize my Elixir Prescription and instructed Healington external elder Luke Barnett to assassinate me, which resulted in his own death at my hands.

I hadn’t yet sought trouble with Healington, yet you consecutively sent people like Seth Barnett and Keith Herbet to hunt me down repeatedly.

Today, it’s time to settle the account in one fell swoop.”

“`

Hiss!

Upon hearing his words, everyone collectively inhaled in shock.

By this account, the young man standing before them had actually killed five people from Healington, including both external and internal elders, and even a highly valued internal walker by the valley master.

This was a vendetta unto death!

Upon hearing this, Elder Hu felt a chill all over his body, and couldn’t help but feel a tinge of fear. Nonetheless, he hardened his voice and said:

“Kid, don’t say I didn’t give you a chance. Just come back to Healington with me and admit your wrongs, and I guarantee you’ll be fine.”

“Oh?”

Greg Jensen said with a mocking smile, “I’ve killed so many of your Healington people, and you say there won’t be any consequences?”

“When… of course.”

Elder Hu forced a smile and said, “Our valley master, Violet Robbins, highly values talent. With your alchemy skills, not only would the valley master be reluctant to kill you, but you might also be entrusted with important responsibilities.”

“The integrity of your Healington people is indeed disappointing. On the brink of death, you still spout nothing but lies.”

Greg Jensen said coldly, “Rest assured and embrace death. After you die, those from Healington will soon join you.”

“No, you… you can’t kill me.”

Elder Hu took a step back instinctively, his voice filled with terror, “If you dare kill me, Healington will never let you go.”

Christopher Dean, too, was startled and quickly said, “Barry Wolfe, this man can’t be killed.”

“Don’t worry, it won’t implicate your Dean Family.”

Greg Jensen gave him a sidelong glance, then, without a second look, he flipped his hand and delivered a slash.

Whizz!

The bright glint of the blade was as quick as lightning.

Elder Hu didn’t even have time to react. He only saw a flash of the blade before his eyes and then felt a chill at his neck as his strength rapidly drained away.

A deathly silence immediately fell over the surroundings.

Thump!

The corpse fell heavily to the ground.

“Damn, he… he actually killed Elder Hu?”

“This is going to be big trouble.”

After a moment of stunned silence, the scene instantly erupted into chaos.

At this moment, everyone was shocked.

No one had anticipated that Greg Jensen would be so ruthless, executing the kill without leaving room for argument.

Christopher Dean was dumbstruck. He had just been delighted by his own cunning, but Greg Jensen had just given him an enormous surprise.

Even if Elder Hu’s death had nothing to do with the Dean Family, he had after all died on Dean Family territory.

Unless the Dean Family openly broke with Barry Wolfe, they would undoubtedly face the wrath of Healington.

That’s when someone in the crowd suddenly exclaimed, “Ah, I remember who he is, he is Barry Wolfe.”

“That’s stating the obvious, he already admitted it himself.”

“No, I mean he is that Barry Wolfe who unified the Seven Provinces of Northwest and the eighteen cities of Danu!”

“Damn, you mean that charismatic Magician?”

“That’s him! It’s said that he has achieved the rank of Law Practitioner, though it’s uncertain if this is true.”

“Law Practitioner? That’s a realm no one has achieved in nearly a thousand years.”

“No wonder he dares to kill people from Healington!”

“Haven’t you heard? Recently there have been strange occurrences in many places. Maybe more Law Practitioners will appear in the future.”

“You’re saying…”

Hearing the surrounding discussions, Christopher Dean turned ashen, and he ultimately realized that the Barry Wolfe before him was the legendary charismatic Magician.

The two figures slowly merged in his mind, and all of Greg Jensen’s actions suddenly made sense.

Although the Dean Family resided in the distant Danu, they had heard of the Magician’s ruthlessness. Elder Hu’s false accusation against him for stealing the Elixir Prescription seemed well deserved.
