Chapter 440
"Look, there''s just no escape for you," Brutus remarked with a devious smile as he stared at Holton
and Ynda.
Subsequently, he turned his attention to Ysabel. Tsk-tsking, he asked grimly, "Girl, were you hiding
them?"
When Ysabel backpedaled in fear, Holton thundered, "Brutus, this has nothing to do with her!"
Brutus responded with a ruthless expression, "I don''t care about that. But for hiding both of you
here, I must demonstrate my prowess to her."
The men behind him broke into heartyughter, causing Isabel''s face to lose all color.
As Brutus lumbered into the storage room, his giant figure alone seemed to fill the entire space.
Summoning what was left of her strength, Ynda drew her broken de with a sh and stabbed
it at Brutus'' head.
Unexpectedly, he didn''t bother to dodge or evade at all.
In the midst of his insidious smile, a long ng rang out when the de made contact with his skin.
Unexpectedly, sparks flew out as if Ynda''s de had struck cold-hard steel.
Ynda narrowed her eyes and swiftly backed off when she realized the dangerous situation they
were in.
Unfortunately, it was already toote, for Brutus'' punch,unched with tremendous force, had
landed right in the center of her chest.
When her ribs shattered with a thunderous crack, Ynda, with her eyes widened in shock,
coughed out mouthfuls of blood.
Screaming in horror, Ysabel covered her eyes and didn''t dare watch any further.
"You piece of thrash!" Brutus threw Ynda aside as if she was garbage before stomping on her
abdomen.
Seized by thunderous rage, Holton threw himself forward to shield the woman.
By then, a listless look descended upon Ynda''s eyes while her breath became so shallow that it
felt as if she could die at any moment.
"What are you screaming for? You''re such a nuisance!” Just like catching a bird, Brutus grabbed
Ysabel by the neck and flung her to the side. When her hips crashed onto the door frame, the pain
that ensued immobilized her on the ground.
He had no intention of holding back just because she was a woman.
"Come on, you''re one of the three Lords of the Terrandya Underground. If you had just stayed there,
Mr. Doyle wouldn''t have had the opportunity to take you out.
However, why did you decide toe to Pollerton?" Brutusmented.
"Terrandya''s Hunter Golding is the bedrock of the city and maintains the bnce between the three
families there.
And yet, you insist on dying in Pollerton." Walking up to Holton, Brutus looked down at him.
If they had stayed in the Terrandya Provincial Center, Ss wouldn''t have had the guts to behave so
audaciously.
Holton was in no mood to chat with Brutus. Instead, he wiped the corners of Ynda''s mouth
attentively.
From his experience, he could tell that she didn''t have much time left. The knowledge of her
impending death filled him with anguish.

Even though Ynda was his bodyguard, she was first and foremost his wife. After surviving many
a crisis together, he was naturally devastated by the prospect of her losing her life soon.
"This is true love indeed. Let me send both of you on your way." Brutus clicked his tongue at the
tragic scene.
Walking up to Holton, Brutus grabbed him by the hair and lifted his body off the ground.
Holton''s eyes were filled with murderous intent, but other than staring daggers at Brutus, there was
little else he could do.
Just when Brutus was about to end Holton''s life, a phantom-like figure slipped into the narrow
storage room.
Even though a shlight was shone on this body, the ring light from behind his back continued to
cast a shadow on his face.
Brutus might have a power level of more than two hundred thousand, this was the first time he felt a
sense of dread with his back against the enemy.
Thus, he gradually turned around to face the figure.
With his vision still distorted, all he could see was a man with disheveled hair standing beside
Ysabel, looking down at how she was grimacing in pain.
Suddenly, Brutus'' heart skipped a beat when he was struck by an ominous premonition.
