243 After You!

Joseph Thomas personally drove through Preston city and arrived at the remote suburbs without stopping.

The eastern suburbs of Preston was an abandoned animal husbandry area.

In the past, there was an agricultural company here. It was backed by the Preston mountains and engaged in the breeding industry. Later on, it went bankrupt, causing this place to be abandoned.

However, the abandoned place was filled with luxury cars today. Any internationally famous car could be seen everywhere here. They were parked all over the place.

After Joseph arrived in his car, a young man in sportswear with earrings peeked into the car and saw four people.

“Young Master Thomas, you’ve exceeded the quota!” he said with a frown.

“It’s just two more people. Don’t worry, I’ll pay up!”

Joseph had the money. He was afraid that people did not know he was from a wealthy family.

However, the young man with the earrings did not give him face. He said, “Let me be straight with you. The number of people who is here today has exceeded our expectations by 30%. I promised you that you could bring one person in, but I’m afraid even that won’t do now. You can only go in with me.”

“What the hell? Brother Wonka, we had an agreement. It won’t do if you don’t go through with what you said.”

Joseph glanced at Yash Wonka. It did not look like he was taking the opportunity to ask for money.

It seemed that the people who had come today were indeed a little unexpected.

Yash said bluntly, “These three look like ordinary people. Actually, it’s useless for ordinary people to go in. It’s a waste of money. Why don’t you let them wait outside? Here, you don’t have to worry about safety. I’ll guarantee it.”

“Stinky little bro, what is this place? Why aren’t we allowed in?”

Xana Thomas took off her earphones and stuck her head out of the car window, her cheeks fuming.

Braydon Neal sensed that there were more than 500 people in the forest ahead. Most of them had long breaths. They must be martial artists!

There must be something big going on since the martial artists had gathered here.

“It seems like this is the newly opened martial artist market?” Braydon’s thin lips moved slightly.

“Who are you, brother?” Yash was stunned. From Braydon’s tone, he was a martial artist who had seen the world.

Joseph said sneakily, “Brother, this is my brother, Braydon. He’s a warlord-level martial artist. If even he isn’t allowed to enter, if you offend him when you open this market, you’ll have a hard time in Preston.”

“What? Warlord level!”

Yash was shocked. In this area of Preston, a warlord level was definitely a big shot.

Braydon’s face remained calm. He felt helpless when it came to Joseph’s introduction.

Compared to the little fool when he was young, this guy was a little silly as well.

Joseph and Braydon had known each other for so many days, yet he still foolishly thought that he was a warlord.

His brain was definitely crooked!

For a king to be called a warlord, he must be the only one.

Yash looked troubled. “The number of people today is indeed a little too high. But I can’t afford to offend anyone.”

“My brother is a warlord. It’s not right for your market to reject him!” Joseph was still trying to negotiate.

However, as they were talking, a black car quietly stopped beside them.

Yash raised his hand slightly, signaling for Joseph to stop talking. He then turned around and looked at the person who got out of the black car.

It was Kendrick Lua!

A second-rate blacksmith in Preston was no stranger to Braydon.

Previously, when Liam Neal asked Kendrick to forge a weapon, Tristan Yandell twisted the spear into a fried dough twist.

“Welcome, Master Lua!” Yash opened the car door and said respectfully.

“Has the market started?”

Kendrick was dressed in a suit and was looking very neat. He had dressed himself up carefully before coming.

Yash humbly said, “Not yet. Even important figures like you haven’t arrived yet. How would the market dare to officially open for business? Please come in!”

“Lead the way!” Kendrick opened the trunk of the car. There was something heavy inside. It was most likely a weapon used by martial artists.

Inviting Kendrick Lua to the market was undoubtedly done to boost the reputation of the market.

It seemed that the person behind this market was not ordinary. He had basically invited all the people from all walks of life in Preston.

However, it was not certain if anyone from the Preston main team had been invited.

However, even if the market was given ten guts, they would not dare to inform Steve Xavier and the others.

The reason was simple. The black market and the market were of the same nature. They provided convenience for martial artists to trade spiritual herbs and weapons. They were the targets of the special operations team.

“Brother Wonka, you have to think of a way to deal with my problem,” Joseph said in a low voice.

“Young Master Thomas, can’t you see that I’m welcoming a very important person?” Yash was a little impatient.

It was this interruption that made Kendrick turn his head and look over. He did not pay attention to Joseph, but he saw the young man in white standing in the distance with his hands behind his back.

Kendrick’s pupils constricted, and cold sweat appeared on his face. He could not help but run forward. “Why are you here?”

“I had some free time today, so I’m here with my little brother to take a look. However, it seems that this newly opened market doesn’t welcome us.”

A faint smile hung on Braydon’s lips.

“Master Lua, you know each other?” Yash was shocked.

“What do you think?”

Kendrick wanted to kill this idiot, Yash.

The market invited him, Kendrick Lua, but Braydon was ignored and not allowed entry.

They were trying to kill Kendrick!

Could it be that he, Kendrick Lua, was greater figure than the white-robed Northern King?

He was the Northern King. He was the king of the 8,000 miles of the northern territory. He had millions of elite cavalrymen under him. He was young and held a high position.

In the entire Preston city, there was no one more terrifying than him.

He had been announced as the Garrison King last night.

He was the Viceroy of the capital!

Just the name ‘viceroy’ was enough to intimidate the world.

Yash broke out in a cold sweat. He did not expect that there would be a problem during the reception segment.

“I’ll arrange it right away. I’ll let everyone go in together,” he promised hurriedly.

Kendrick ignored Yash and turned to Braydon. “After you!”

This attitude caused Yash to panic even more. What kind of distinguished guest did this idiot Joseph bring to their market?

Could he be the ten masters’ grandson?

Today, the ten old men who lived in seclusion in Preston mountains had been invited to the opening of the market.

These ten big shots were infamous figures in Preston seventy years ago.

Braydon put his hands behind his back and smiled. He did not give in and walked into the dense forest ahead.

In this place, there was no one worthy of the Northern King.

Yesterday in the capital, Braydon did not need to show too much respect to the head of the hundred officials, Duke Dominic Lowe.

This small place was nothing in comparison!

Braydon and the others passed through the small forest and saw the market hidden inside.

Everything was a newly constructed venue. Hundreds of people were walking around, and three to five people gathered in groups. It was as if they were acquaintances, laughing and talking about the interesting things that had happened recently.

There were also cold martial artists in black who stood quietly in the corner, waiting for the market to open.

There were even some who were filled with killing intent and had aggressive eyes.

People from all walks of life were gathered here!

It aroused the curiosity of Xana and Heather Sage. For ordinary people, many things were very novel at the gathering of martial artists.

“Master Lua, this way please!” Yash said humbly.
