Chapter 1981


    "Larson, you don''t have to lie to me anymore. I just want to know if you''re up for a challenge!"


    Knowing that he wasn''t as eloquent as Matthew, Zayn dered the purpose of his visit


    straightforwardly.


    Shaking his head, Matthew looked at him as if he was looking at a fool.


    "It''s not a question of courage! May I ask you why I should ept the challenge when you came


    uninvited and insulted me? Just because you act brazenly, I shouldply with your request?"


    "You…"


    Zayn fumed, but he couldn''t bring himself to blurt a word.


    "I''m asking if you dare to take on the challenge, you coward!"


    "Challenge my *ss! I''d only be risking lowering my status if Ipeted with someone with the quality of


    education such as you! Szar, send the guest off!"


    After speaking, Matthew ignored Zayn, turned around, and walked toward the backyard.


    He''d rather spend time with the Bloodreaper.


    However, Zayn, who was burned with anger, snickered, "Hah! How dare a useless piece of trash like


    you reject my confrontation? Go to hell!"


    Clenching his right hand into a fist, he aimed at Matthew''s back and was about to send a punch when


    two voices shouted in unison, "Stop!"


    In a swift movement, Szar stood beside Matthew and red at Zayn with ferocious eyes. I can''t


    believe this Emsgate brat is trying to attack Matthew sneakily! How shameless!


    Seeing that Zayn had no intention of stopping, Szar naturally would not show mercy.


    Facing him head-on, Szar grabbed the opponent''s wrist.


    Zayn might be skilled, but hegged far behind Szar.


    The moment he felt the powerful grip on his wrist, his face twisted, and he quickly sensed something


    off.


    Despite that, it was toote for him to break free.


    Following Szar''s strength exerted from his waist, Zayn was thrown up in the air.


    Fortunately, when his body was about to be mounted on the wall, a figure suddenly appeared behind


    him and brought him down firmly.


    "You rebel! How many times have I told you not to cause trouble when youe to Cathay?"


    The person who came was none other than Zayn''s master, Baltazar Dupont.


    He was a master-level miracle doctor among the Ten Greatest Families of Emsgate.


    The moment he learned that Zayn was missing, he assumed that this disciple of his must have not


    been able to ept how capable Matthew was when he heard it from Aurelius, so he came to


    Matthew''s house to challenge him.


    Since they were in a foreign country, Baltazar rushed here immediately to prevent his disciple from


    suffering losses.


    As soon as he entered the door, he saw that his disciple was nning to make a sneak attack, so he


    shouted for him to stop.


    Meanwhile, Zayn, who had just been rescued, still had lingering fears.


    If it weren''t for his master, he might have been badly injured.


    "Mr. Matthew Larson, we must have disturbed you foring uninvited. My rebellious disciple has


    caused trouble to you due to ack of discipline. I sincerely apologize for that! Zayn, apologize to Dr.


    Larson right now."


    Although he was prideful, Zayn dared not disobey the words of his master. Hence, he held back the ball


    of anger in his chest and walked up to Matthew.


    "I''m sorry!"


    After a simple apology, he returned to his master''s side.

    "The issue has been resolved now, and I need to get back for my recovery. Please take your leave."


    Matthew disliked Zayn, so he came up with a random excuse to chase them out of the house.


    Baltazar''s expression darkened, but he immediately presented his amiable smile.


    "Please hold on, Mr. Larson. My disciple is good in everything else except for his temper. I''m afraid that


    after taking him back, he will sneak out to challenge you again. Why don''t you just take a shot and


    teach this rebel a lesson for me? Let him know that there are people who are way more skilled than


    him?"


    While saying that, he took out a small wooden box from his chest.


    When the wooden box was opened, Matthew''s indifferent expression suddenly changed.


    Smelling the faint herbal scent, he instantly recognized the content.


    That was an extremely rare herb—the meridian-nourishing nt!


    Looking at the confident expression on the old man''s face, Matthew instantly realized that they came


    fully prepared. This old man was a wolf in sheep''s clothing!
