Chapter 578: Chapter 578: In the mix, you need power, you need a background_1

The Kyushu Assembly, Carson Flores had badly injured Aurelio Compton with a punch and killed Gunner Tate!

This news spread through the entire cultivation world like the wind, and in Xijing, it became the talk of the town, a topic that lingered on and on.

Leiguang Clubhouse.

A large table of young men and women were drinking. Among them, two of the main characters were Messiah Frost, a young genius from the Frost Family, and her brother-in-law Desmond Hoffman; most of the others were disciples from prominent families in Xijing City and friends of Messiah Frost.

"Brother Ye, Carson Flores is making quite a splash now. Do you think he will help Adriel Frost?"

Messiah Frost smiled calmly. Before he could speak, Desmond Hoffman had already sneered, "If he wants to help, let him help. The result will still be the same."

With a smile, Messiah Frost added, "Competition, after all, is about each using their own means. Whether he helps Adriel or not is his choice, I certainly can’t interfere."

"Brother Ye, what do the two elders of the Frost Family think?"

Messiah Frost said with a smile, "Adriel is my cousin, and we compete fairly. The elders in the family naturally treat us all equally."

Messiah Frost’s words were watertight, but everyone around chuckled.

"Bro, you’re talking like an outsider, aren’t you? We all know your family situation. The elder Finn Frost is your great-grandfather and a direct relative; if he doesn’t support you, who will he support? And although by blood relationship, you and Adriel are the same, Elder Amari Frost will definitely consider Elder Finn Frost’s opinion. So it’s obvious they both support you, and you’re sure to win this competition."

"Exactly, and besides, even in terms of ability, Brother Ye, you are more formidable than Adriel Frost, without a doubt."

"You all missed something even more important – Brother Ye has his sister-in-law and the support of the Hoffman Family. The Hoffman Family is the foremost in Xijing. Who dares to contend with them, right, Young Master Hoffman?"

Desmond Hoffman said proudly, "It’s true that Carson Flores became an Innate Grandmaster in his twenties, which is indeed genius, and killing Gunner Tate shows he can really fight. But what’s the use of that? To survive out here, you need power and background. No matter how tough one is alone, there’s always someone tougher. Sooner or later, they’ll be beaten to death."

The men and women burst into flattery.

"Yes, that Carson Flores is just a lone wolf. What kind of power does he have? He has a master, but his strength is just so-so. If he really gets killed one day, he won’t even have anyone to avenge him. Who would take revenge for a dead man?"

"The Hoffman Family is the first name in Xijing. They have more than a dozen Innate Grandmasters alone. Even if Carson Flores killed Gunner Tate, so what? Elder Hoffman is a super Grandmaster who ranks in the top ten of the Kyushu, probably just a flick of his finger would be enough to kill him."

"Brother Ye is sure to win; you should treat us in advance."

There was a bustle of excitement, and even Messiah Frost’s face lit up with excitement.

He was a composed person with deep schemes, and some things would never come out of his mouth. But weren’t these people just speaking his mind?

What’s the use of Carson Flores being tough? Can he compare to the Hoffman Family?

Besides, when Carson was in the most danger, Dawson Frost’s branch didn’t help him much. Would Carson still help them and by doing so, offend the Hoffman Family?

As long as he wasn’t foolish, he wouldn’t make such a choice.

Messiah Frost laughed, "Let’s drink, drink up. I’m hosting tonight. Let’s continue drinking in a private room later!"

"Great!"

"Brother Ye is so generous!"

While they were drinking, a young man suddenly said, "Young Master Hoffman, Brother Ye, look, there’s a beautiful lady over there..."

Desmond Hoffman held his glass and followed the young man’s direction, his eyes immediately lit up.

Such a beautiful woman!

That figure, those facial features, that temperament, she was like a fairy.

The models and actresses he had been with before were like dog shit compared to this woman.

Desmond Hoffman’s eyes heated up immediately.

"She seems to be waiting for someone?"

"It looks like it."

"So beautiful. I’ve never seen her before."

"Xijing is so big; you can’t know everyone. It’s normal not to recognize her."

"Of course, I can’t know everyone. What I mean is she probably isn’t from a major family. Otherwise, with her looks, her name would have spread throughout Xijing at this age. Like the Dong family’s young miss, who doesn’t know her? But compared to this woman, the Dong family’s miss is nothing."

"Makes sense."

Desmond Hoffman narrowed his eyes for a closer look, then turned to ask Messiah Frost, "What do you say?"

Messiah Frost said with a laugh, "What can I say? If I tried to hit on a beautiful lady, wouldn’t your sister make a fuss at me?"

Desmond Hoffman chuckled, "That means you’re giving up?"

Messiah Frost laughed, "It’s all yours, you’re single, nothing to lose by flirting."

Desmond Hoffman laughed out loud and turned to say, "Who’s going to go over and suss out her background?"

Marcus Gibbs, who had spotted the beauty, volunteered himself: "I’ll go and test the waters for Young Master Hoffman."

Marcus Gibbs approached the ethereal and lovely lady with polite manners, "Miss, may I ask if you are waiting for someone?"

Shirley Miller looked up from her phone, her eyebrows slightly furrowed, "Yes, I’m waiting for my husband."
