Chapter 369: Chapter 342: A Harmonious Cooperation (2 more updates)

"Boom!"

The ground once again caved in, forming a large pit.

Chloe fell from above and landed on her palm, then slowly stood up.

Seeing Carl Stephens in the pit, she pursed her lips.

Something was still lacking.

The black cat fell heavily into the pit, deepening the impact.

Carl managed to break free from the black cat.

As the cat’s body bounced, it leaped back to Chloe’s side before he could hit it.

Carl’s expression darkened as he looked up from below.

The girl’s composure was infuriating.

It was a disgrace that he, Carl Stephens, should be left in such a sorry state by a little girl who was still wet behind the ears!

As long as Chloe didn’t kill him today, allowing him an opportunity to return home, he vowed to mobilize the full power of the Stephens Family to suppress her.

Chloe must not be allowed to live!

"Little Chloe,"

A voice came from behind her, followed by a stone falling in front and creating a grating noise.

Carl dodged the hit, jumped out of the pit, and turned to see Len Hawthorne approaching with a black umbrella. His eyes filled with even more gloom. "It’s you again."

"Third Master Stephens, we meet again," Len spoke, a cigarette hanging from the corner of his mouth. If he hadn’t seen him take it off before, he would have seriously doubted it had been glued there.

Len laughed as he looked at Carl, "It hasn’t been long since your return, yet you’ve already made a full recovery?"

"Are you also going to meddle in our family’s affairs, Captain Hawthorne?"

"Of course, I won’t interfere in the Stephens Family’s internal matters. Unfortunately, you’re picking on Little Chloe. That’s something I can’t tolerate."

"You’re in it together!" Carl felt an inexplicable sense of pressure as he saw Len’s appearance.

Len smirked maliciously: "It’s puzzling. Wasn’t my allegiance to Chloe quite clear back at the Stephens family home? It’s your short memory that led you to believe Little Chloe is easily manipulated."

Carl’s gaze suddenly turned sinister as he looked at Chloe and asked, "So you planned this from the beginning, setting a trap for us to walk into."

Len seemed amused by the accusation, "Third Master Stephens, no one forced you to go to Mountain County or to rob people. How can you claim that we set a trap for you?"

"As the captain of the Slaughter Squad, you act recklessly for your own interests, with no sense of fairness or justice," Carl stared fiercely at Len, his teeth clenched as he spoke bitterly.

"I too am human, capable of my own feelings and actions. Tonight, I didn’t bring any members of the Slaughter Squad. I’m here to settle a personal dispute in my capacity as a civilian. At times like this, worrying about fairness and justice is probably asking too much, don’t you think, Third Master Stephens?"

"Enough of your nonsense," Chloe quickly glanced at the man, waving the strength in her hand as she instantly appeared in front of Carl.

Caught by surprise, Carl quickly counterattacked.

From behind, Len threw his umbrella away, moving like a shadow, and simultaneously restraining Carl’s movements with Chloe.

Carl’s power was restrained by the two forces, unable to reach his previous peak.

His disadvantage became apparent after only a few moves.

This was Chloe and Len’s first time working together, yet they shared an eerie sense of harmony.

Chloe couldn’t help but glance over, feeling no connection with Len from the very beginning.

It was only after encountering the ribbon that her familiarity grew increasingly strong.

Now standing side by side, another sense of familiarity arose.

Chloe tried to grasp it, but the feeling slipped away.

"Little Chloe, give me your hand."

"Huh?"

Len took her hand, their fingers interlocked.

An electrifying current traveled through the gaps of their fingers as he moved.

At that moment, Chloe suddenly felt a little dazed.

Just as she turned her gaze, the power in her hand surged violently.

Chloe couldn’t help but be astonished.

Their powers were melding together.

Seeing the invisible hurricane gradually forming around them, even the large black cat’s fur stood on end.

"Little Chloe, can’t you see? Our powers are excited!"

"..."

Len Hawthorne’s hand gripped tighter, as the formidable power within him continued to surge.

Carl Stephens felt the power emanating from them both, and the muscles in his face twitched under its pressure.

Chloe sensed something was wrong. Her other hand suddenly reached out to grab his collar and directly faced him, closing the distance between them. The force almost pushed Chloe into his embrace.

Her expression changed slightly, "Stop, the barrier is about to break."

Her voice was cold.

Len also felt the saturation of the power. If they continued to release it, they would destroy themselves as well.

This power was too strong, making even Chloe feel uneasy.

Carl’s eyes widened.

He stared intently at the two of them.

It was unimaginable what would happen if these two truly joined forces.

For a moment, Carl thought he was going to be crushed to death.

Despite his own high cultivation, he couldn’t even lift his head in front of these youngsters.

This defied logic.

Now he was doubting their real age.

A teenage girl, and a young man in his twenties, how could they possibly possess such incredible power?

*

"Boom!"

The released power surged upward, triggering bursts of thunder in the sky.

A cluster of giant sparks erupted from the ground.

The surrounding wires instantly caught fire.

Despite the large distance, Ella Stephens could feel the impact, wrenching her nerves and causing a buzzing in her head.

She was thrown off her feet by the shock.

"Grandfather?"

She looked up into the rain before her vision turned black and she fainted.

Old Lynch was also overwhelmed by the power, which made his vision blurry. He heavily sat down on the ground and fainted as well.

*

"What’s going on outside?"

Inside Dark City, people felt the impact from outside. It was definitely not a normal lightning strike but instead the thunder created by the clash of ancient martial artists.

Who were the top-notch experts fighting outside?

Did Sheffield City also hide such formidable top-notch experts?

Due to the thunder, people in Dark City became restless.

Each of them was guessing who the fighters outside could be.

In the ancient martial world, it had been a long time since there was such an intense confrontation.

*

Imperial Capital.

Godfrey Family.

The main gate opened, and a person hurried in.

"Family leader, ten minutes ago, artificial thunder erupted in the direction of Sheffield City. It was triggered by the clash of two ancient martial artists. The atmosphere of Sheffield City changed in a flash. It is highly likely that it was caused by the rumored Divinity Temple. Shall our Godfrey Family send someone to investigate?"

The handsome man sitting at the long table, his eyes narrowed, and a hint of dark golden gleam flashed across his gem-like eyes.

"If the rumored Divinity Temple really erupted, then someone must have entered and triggered it."

Allen Godfrey slowly raised his head, looking at the person in front of him, "Send our people to check it out. But don’t run into Sheffield’s Slaughter Squad. I remember the little lad from the Hawthorne Family is in Sheffield City. That youngster’s fate shouldn’t be underestimated, so be careful."

"Yes!"

Allen stood up and walked to the window with his hands clasped behind his back, staring at the night outside.

Unlike the rainy night in Sheffield City, the Imperial Capital’s night was serene.

Allen pinched his fingers and turned around, his deep gaze fixated on the box on the table.
