Chapter 357


    Mabel changed into a rose-red shirt, sleek ck trousers, and bedazzled heels.


    She had an aura of nobility in that outfit, looking aloof and elegant.


    She didn''t have to put on any lipstick since her lips were naturally red, and her enticing lips made


    others want to take a bite at them.


    “Lastly, I need a hat!” Mabel looked at her reflection in the mirror while saying that to Jonathan, who


    was watching television.


    Hearing that, Jonathan immediately stood up and replied, “Let''s go get you a hat,” to which Mabel


    agreed enthusiastically.


    Both of them head out of the hotel after that.


    It was midday at the moment, which was the sunniest time of the day.


    The sun hanging in the sky was like a humungous furnace. It was as if a bright spotlight shone on the


    Earth, and every corner of the Earth was lit up by its light.


    Plenty of cars were on the streets, and many people were also walking by the road.


    The women around had umbres and wore shawls to block the rays of the sun.


    “I''m hungry. Let''s go get some food first,” Mabel said.


    “No problem,” Jonathan replied.


    They both found a restaurant, and it seemed that business was booming. Most of the customers were


    Thymionian.


    The fragrance of curry wafted through the air around them.


    The restaurant was not air-conditioned, so the smell of sweat was also present.


    Nevertheless, Jonathan and Mabel were starving and wanted to try the local cuisine, so they were not


    picky about the conditions.


    With that, Jonathan ordered chicken curry, and Mabel ordered beef curry.


    They had some cold drinks after the meal.


    Jonathan felt instantly refreshed upon drinking his ss of Thymionian beer.


    As for Mabel, she ordered a ss of coke.


    Next, both of them went shopping for sun hats, in which Jonathan bought one for himself as well.


    All of a sudden, Mabel suggested, “Let''s take a picture together!” She then took out her phone and


    pulled Jonathan over.


    They both looked at the camera and soon a few clicks could be heard.


    Mabel even asked a passing tourist from Chanaea to help her with taking their pictures.


    The duo honestly looked like they came to Thymion for a vacation since the atmosphere around them


    was harmonious.


    It was rather rare for Jonathan and Mabel to have leisure time like this.


    He was azy man with nothing to do and had no ambitions or goals back then.


    Yet, he was different now as he had experienced the pain and hardships of growing as a person. Being


    involved in a death tribtion was not something he could extricate himself from. Jonathan finally knew


    the horror of the Heavenly Law after experiencing what he had experienced.


    He also knew that luck wouldn''t be by his side forever, so he needed to be stronger more quickly.


    Only then would he have a higher chance of surviving.


    However, that day, he would like to enjoy the rxing time he rarely had.


    At two in the afternoon, Jonathan decided to look for Pedor.


    Pedor once insulted Jonathan''s mother, but Jonathan couldn''t reveal his true strength back then as he


    was trying to catch Vananeru, so he could only endure the insult.


    That day was finally a good time for revenge.


    Jonathan, however, never expected that he would abruptly receive an anonymous phone call.


    He picked up the call, and a familiar voice was heard from the other end of the line.


    It was the voice of a beautifuldy.


    “Mr. Lawson, Vananeru is in trouble. Pleasee to the school!” Thedy sounded anxious.


    Jonathan was shocked to hear that and immediately replied, “What kind of trouble? Who are you?” Content from N?velDr(a)ma.Org.


    “I''m Ginny! Pedor found out about what had happened to Vananeru''s father, so he came to take his


    revenge on Vananeru!”


    “All right. I''ll be right there.”


    Jonathan then remembered who Ginny was. She was thedy who acted as his guide when he first


    arrived at the school.


    Pedor, instead of taking the easy way out, you chose to walk through hell instead!


    “What''s wrong?” Mabel asked, and Jonathan briefly exined the situation.


    Mabel said, “I don''t think you''d make it even if you rushed there now. It''s best if you ask the girl who


    called you if they''re still at the school. If they''re not, then find out where they''re going so that we can


    intercept them in the middle.”


    Jonathan agreed with what Mabel had said and called Ginny again while rushing to save Vananeru with


    Mabel.


    Ginny anxiously answered, “Vananeru''s been brought out of the school. I think they''re heading toward


    Pedor''s house. He lives in Sherwood Condominium, which is on 108th County Street.”


    “Okay. Got it,” Jonathan gave a brief reply.


    He immediately told Mabel the location, but both of them were not familiar with Mapleton.


    After a while, Jonathan decisively stated, “I''ll go get a car!”


    Mabel stopped him and said, “The traffic in Mapleton is as bad as Yaleview. We might as well run than


    drive. I can use the GPS on my phone. Follow me.” With that, she quickly opened her navigation


    application.


    After saying that, she took off her heels and threw them to the side before running ahead.


    As for Jonathan, he quickly followed after her without any questions asked.


    Jonathan genuinely wished Vananeru would lead a happy and peaceful life in the future. She''s not a


    bad kid, and b*stards like Pedor deserve to die. I can''t allow a guy like that to mess with a good girl like


    Vananeru. F*ck! Even I couldn''t bear tarnishing her!


    This time, Vananeru knew ahead of time that Pedor hade for her, and she knew things wouldn''t


    end well. Hence, she told Ginny to contact Jonathan, saying that only Jonathan could save her.


    Even though Vananeru had experienced many tragedies and been through a lot, she never once


    thought of giving up on her life. She would never let trash like Pedor defile her.


    However, even if she thought that way, she was worried that Jonathan would note to her rescue.


    While sprinting, Jonathan told Mabel, “We''ll go straight to Sherwood Condominium and look for Pedor''s


    father, Torny. We''ll force Torny to cooperate with us so that Pedor would listen to us.”


    “Capture the leader, and the rest would topple. I like your idea,” Mabel praised.


    There was a small garden in Sherwood Condominium with an abundance of beautiful nts and palm


    trees. There was also a fountain and a parking garage.


    Not only that but gunmen and bodyguards were stationed in the condominium as well.


    The security of the ce was quite good.


    However, their presence amounted to nothing in the eyes of Jonathan and Mabel.


    When they arrived at Sherwood Condominium, the first thing Jonathan thought was the ce seemed


    rather nice.


    On second thought, this makes me mad. Even someone like Torny is able to enjoy his life like this... I''m


    much more capable than him, but why am I living like a loser?


    Great men were not born, they were made.


    Jonathan used to not have any ambition, but now, the ambition in him raged, and that desire was


    nurtured by Edward.


    In the future, Jonathan wanted to be as powerful as the Divine Emperor, and that was his goal.


    He wanted to have his own foundation and build his own empire. He wanted everyone to cower in fear


    when they heard his name.


    Back to reality, Jonathan and Mabel soon arrived inside Sherwood Condominium, and it only took


    Jonathan one kick to kick the door open.


    When they entered the building, the gunmen and bodyguards began taking action.


    The bodyguards took out their guns as if a powerful enemy had appeared, and they were speaking in


    Thymionan. However, Jonathan and Mabel couldn''t understand a word they were saying.


    Soon, the leader of the bodyguards appeared. The leader was wearing a traditional Chanaean outfit,


    and he had two walnuts in his hand. He was about forty years old and looked like the boss around


    here.


    The leader''s name was Karson Wright, and he was Chanaean. He was in the final stage of Neutralizing


    Force. With his cultivation level, he could be considered one of the strongest among internal-style


    martial artists.


    Karson immediately heaved a sigh of relief when he noticed that the intruders were two Chanaeans


    because this was not Chanaean''s home ground.


    He stood a distance away from Jonathan and Mabel as he sneered, “This woman''s not bad. She could


    be my mistress. As for the man, I think it''s best to just kill him.”


    Jonathan cursed inwardly when he heard that. He''s quite daring. How dare he want Mabel to be his


    mistress? Even I wouldn''t dare think of that!


    As expected, Jonathan didn''t even get the chance to be mad because Mabel already was. She


    regarded Karson with a cold gaze, saying, “Say that again.”


    Karson didn''t deem Mabel as a threat. The guy wasn''t stupid. He was actually rather bright. He had


    developed an eye for discerning people since he had met many experts before. However, even with his


    experience, Karson still wasn''t able to discern Jonathan and Mabel''s cultivation level.


    “You''re dead!” A glint shed past Mabel''s eyes, and at that moment, she unleashed her spiritual wave.


    Karson was stillughing when all of a sudden, his eyes widened, and blood could be seen streaming


    down from his eyes.


    After that, Karson fell backward and died on the spot.


    Jonathan and Mabel were humiliated and powerless throughout the period before, but that was


    because the people they had encountered were the best among experts.


    For example, the holy master was Thymion''s top expert, Wretched the Great was not even human, and


    there was the Demon Emperor as well.


    Jonathan and Mabel were helpless against them.


    However, this didn''t mean that they were both weaklings, especially Mabel.


    She was already an eighth-level Divine Master and would almost be at the same level as Edward and


    Richard soon.


    That was why it wasn''t even hard for her to wipe someone as insignificant as Karson off the face of the


    Earth.


    Upon grasping the situation, someone among the gunmen couldn''t help but open fire.


    The others followed suit and opened fire since someone already took the lead.


    Jonathan had nned on evading the bullets, but he immediately noticed that something was wrong.


    The gunmen started firing at each other, and soon, many dead bodies were seen on the ground.


    All this happened because Mabel released a force field, and the strong spiritual mana was affecting the


    cranial nerves of the gunmen.


    The gunmen were not trained experts, so they couldn''t defend themselves against such attacks.


    Just then, Torny walked out. “Who''s causing a ruckus here?”


    He was speaking in Thymionan, and the scene he saw once he came out was a garden filled with


    bodies.
