Chapter 423: Chapter 344: Thirteen Colored Peculiar Butterflies_2

Abner Lane’s disposition didn’t change upon hearing about a "Tier-7 Demonic Beast". He still looked at his subordinate impatiently. "For this kind of task, you should go to Nick Liam. I know he owes you a favor.

It doesn’t matter whether Liam is present or not. His one punch is enough to hit any target.

It’s just a severely wounded Tier-7 Demonic Beast. Do I really need to do it myself?"

Owen Bertram had thought of Nick Liam, but didn’t really understand him and wasn’t sure about his abilities to handle this predicament. Now with Abner Lane’s assurance, he felt relieved to connect with Master Liam.

He hurriedly asked, "Master, how’s the front line? You have worked hard..."

Abner Lane detected Owen’s superficiality— this was a polite way to wrap the conversation, while pretending to show concern.

Instantly, Abner Lane ended the conversation through the Communication Talisman, "How insincere!"

Owen Bertram touched his nose awkwardly and replaced the talisman to contact Nick Liam. Liam knew he was there to collect a debt, so his attitude was cold. Once Bertram mentioned his requirements, Liam lazily said, "Why bother me for such a trivial matter?

I recently mastered the Seventh Curse of the Great Sorrow Fist Curse, I can deliver one punch for you. That will be enough to resolve this matter."

Owen did not dare to take it lightly. Liam was the expert he had found as the backup. Without this expert, if anything were to go wrong, all his efforts would be in vain.

"Master Liam, your punch must be extraordinary," he said cautiously. Liam understood immediately. This fellow was flattering him out of his uneasiness. Liam snorted, "The Seventh Curse can rival the Seventh Level. I secretly achieved it and have not made it public, and moreover, it is not easy for me to exert this curse.

So, you can be at ease. This punch will suffice your plans. I won’t let you down. Go to the Capital and inquire, my business is transparent to everyone! If you fail due to me, I will personally go to Copper Gorge and kill the Tier-7 Demonic Beast for you!"

Owen smiled, "Thank you, Master!"

"Hmm!" Liam seemed a bit unconvinced, "My deals never lose money, but I’m in loss in this deal with you! I will give you this punch, but you need to promise to do an extra favor for me."

Would Owen allow himself to be taken advantage of? Even if Liam was the North Prison Commander, it was not acceptable!

"Master, we have already come to an agreement earlier. As a person of your stature, you surely cannot go back on your word, right? Besides, you said that you’re in loss, but I don’t see it that way. The massive wealth of the Scott Clan has fallen into your pocket. That Fox Mask is not a trivial thing. Moreover, you didn’t return the previous Treasure Materials I had given you..."

When it came to bargaining, how could Master Liam, who had led a privileged life since childhood, compete with Owen Bertram, a man of the grassroots?

The two haggled, and Owen even showed inclination to demand those treasure materials.

Liam was so annoyed that her teeth itched. She always prided herself on her business acumen, always having the upper hand in negotiations. In reality... those were only because people were afraid of her influence and combat power, and dare not really compete with her. Owen didn’t care about this, for he was Master Lane’s confidant!

In the end, Liam gave up first, "Never mind, as the prestigious North Prison Commander, it’s beneath my dignity to argue with a small fellow like you."

This was indeed showing great EQ. If you can’t win the argument, just give up.

Continuing, Liam said: "I will give you an extra reward. Not just a punch, I’m ready to pay a heavy cost and give you a complete set of the Seventh Curse attacks. You have to do one task for me."

She stressed: "A complete set of these attacks could severely injure the beast, even if it were in a perfectly healthy condition!

Handing over this set of attacks comes at a high price. I’ll need three months of rest and won’t be able to battle during this period."

Instantly, Owen sensed a trick and became more cautious: "Tell me first, what do you want me to do?"

Liam said: "In half a month, there is the annual Dragon and Snake Ranking Contest among the younger generation of our dynasty. There is a loathsome little bastard. I want you to participate in it and give him a good lesson on my behalf!"

Owen hesitated. A man whom Liam resented but couldn’t handle must have a complex background...

Liam seemed to know what he was worried about and further explained: "You don’t need to worry. I refrain from acting due to my reputation, but the little bastard is rather capable. Most of the young talents under me are not up to challenge him, that’s why I thought of you."

"Really?"

This question nearly made Liam lose her temper: "What’s my status? Would I con you?!"

Owen couldn’t finally resist the lure of a complete set of the Seventh Curse attacks and gritted his teeth in agreement: "Alright."

Liam stressed again: "That little bastard is already at the Fifth Great Realm and is considered the top of our young generation. You must work hard during this time. Don’t let minor obstacles overturn your grand plans. If you get beaten while representing me, how will I keep my face?"
