The Luckiest Dumb Doctor-Chapter 456 - - It Still Has to Be Daley Rogers_1

Chapter 456 -456: It Still Has to Be Daley Rogers_1

Duncan Kong realized it was too late, and seeing that he could not avoid it, he did not try to dodge but instead punched Xavier Cooper fiercely in the chest.

And his arm was slashed by one of the blades, resulting in a wound.

Deep enough to see the bone!

Bright red blood gushed out continuously.

Duncan Kong’s expression changed slightly, and only upon looking up did he notice that Xavier Cooper had suddenly produced two daggers in his hands.

“Thomas Lampe’s insidiousness and ruthlessness, you have indeed learned well!”

Xavier Cooper was sent flying backward by the punch. Although he used Qinggong to offset most of the force, the punch still made him spit out a mouthful of blood.

He glared at Duncan Kong with a cold gaze and said, “In a life and death struggle, to talk of insidiousness is simply laughable!”

“Oh dear, stop fighting!”

Simon Cooper hurried over, trying to mediate, “Grandmaster Duncan, please stop, any more and it’ll harm the good relations.”

Troy Milton also tried to mediate, saying, “Yes, the main reason we invited everyone here was to kill a person. Surely we can’t let our own people die before our enemy does, right?”

“Considering the face of Troy Milton, I won’t hold you accountable today. Once this matter is taken care of, I will personally make a trip to Liangzhou.

I want to ask Thomas Lampe himself how he teaches his disciples!”

Duncan Kong glared coldly at Xavier Cooper before taking the medical box and quickly bandaging himself up.

The slash on his forearm, though deep, was not a serious problem for a Grandmaster like Duncan Kong.

It didn’t hit any vital points, and he would mostly recover after resting for two or three days.

Xavier Cooper held his chest, took a deep breath, and without saying anything else, returned straight to his seat.

Simon Cooper rushed up to him, showing concern, “Are you alright?”

“I’m fine.”

Xavier Cooper still wore a forbidding expression.

Seeing that he was alright, Simon Cooper breathed a sigh of relief, and his eyes towards Xavier Cooper changed subtly.

It wasn’t just him—Alexander Lewis and others nearby felt the same.

In the fight between Xavier Cooper and Duncan Kong, it was clear that Xavier Cooper was at a disadvantage; if the fight had continued, he would surely have died under Duncan Kong’s punches.

Yet, everyone was still deeply shocked.

Facing Grandmaster Duncan Kong as a mere half-step Grandmaster, and only sustaining light injuries, Xavier Cooper’s strength was truly formidable.

Moreover, he was not even twenty years old yet.

If he were at their age, just how strong would Xavier Cooper become?

At that moment, even if others were unwilling to admit it, they had to acknowledge that Xavier Cooper was truly a disciple of Thomas Lampe.

His innate talent and aptitude were monstrous, just like Thomas Lampe’s.

Troy Milton’s eyes lingered on Xavier Cooper for quite a while before he moved on, harboring thoughts of recruitment in his heart.

So strong!

Even if Xavier Cooper’s cultivation were to stall at this point, his extremely swift Qinggong alone would secure him a spot among the top-tier experts.

If he could recruit him and nurture him a little, he would have a master assassin on his hands.

He knew Duncan Kong must also feel regret at the thought of wasting such talent, or else he would not have let Xavier Cooper off so easily.

Troy Milton shook his head; he had a clear understanding of his own status.

Duncan Kong was here partially because he was willing to pay up, and partially due to the Stuart Family’s influence.

As for sparing Xavier Cooper, that was purely Duncan Kong’s own decision to pull his punches, and it had nothing to do with him.

Doing him a favor?

Don’t joke; he didn’t have that much clout.

Seeing Duncan Kong had finished bandaging his wound, Troy Milton forced a smile and said:

“Mr. Duncan, truly worthy of your Grandmaster status, such generosity is unmatched by anyone.”

“Heh.”

Duncan Kong glanced at him and said indifferently, “Enough, let’s talk business.”

Troy Milton smiled, cleared his throat, and nodded towards Trent Preston.

Trent Preston brought out a document bag, and distributed sheets of documents from it to everyone.

“This is the information on Barry Wolfe; take a look, everyone.”

The photocopy had Barry Wolfe’s photo and records of his two battles, including his vehicle and residence, all clearly detailed.

Duncan Kong picked up the documents, skimmed them, and then tossed them aside, looking askance at Troy Milton:

“Is it really necessary to call so many people just to deal with a Barry Wolfe?”

With a casual tone, Alexander Lewis said, “Yeah, there’s no need to trouble Grandmaster Kong, we few can take care of this easily.”

What a guy, to summon so many people just for a Grandmaster! You sure you’re not overestimating this kid?”

“Family Head Milton, aren’t you a bit too timid, having so much money you don’t know where to spend it?”

“What’s it to you? That’s their business if they want to spend.”

The others chimed in, all feeling that Troy Milton was making a mountain out of a molehill—was it really necessary to call so many people just to kill a Grandmaster?

Troy Milton was not offended. He watched everyone discuss with a smile, but inside, he was filled with disdain.

A bunch of self-important fools!

Even a lion must use all its strength to catch a rabbit!

The Elixir Barry Wolfe produced had even the operatives of Healington intrigued, and he had effortlessly bested the veteran Grandmaster Nathan Green.

Would someone like that not have Sect support behind him?

If they wanted to get rid of Barry Wolfe, they had to be quick and decisive. Otherwise, if they drew out the powers behind him, there would be big trouble.

Both Trent Preston and Simon Cooper understood his thoughts, so they didn’t say much. Once everyone had more or less had their say, Simon Cooper finally asked:

“Daley, are we going to challenge him outright, or…?”

Hearing his words, everyone fell silent and turned to look at Troy Milton.

Troy Milton smiled and said, “No need for all that trouble; we’ll just wait for Barry Wolfe to come to us.”

“Come to us? Are you joking?”

“He’s not an idiot…”

The crowd looked at Troy Milton as if he were a fool.

Troy Milton stayed silent with a smile, stood up, and said, “Everyone, don’t worry, please feel free to settle in here. If you need anything, just say the word.

Food, drinks, even special requests—I will see to it that everything is properly arranged for you.”

Hearing this, the others didn’t say much. After all, whether Barry Wolfe died or not, they wouldn’t miss out on their money, so why bother?

They weren’t the least bit worried about their ability to kill Barry Wolfe.

With so many who were half a step to Grandmasters, and with Duncan Kong as their anchor, how could they fail to kill a Grandmaster in his twenties?

Troy Milton called the butler, gave a few instructions, then bid farewell to everyone and left.

Once outside, Simon Cooper couldn’t help but ask, “Daley, surely Barry Wolfe won’t just come here to die, will he? What exactly is your plan?”

Trent Preston too stopped and curiously looked towards Troy Milton.

Troy Milton laughed, appearing utterly confident. He glanced around, then whispered:

“I borrowed a few guys from Qi Ye to get a few shots at Barry Wolfe first. Wolfe is hot-headed and quick to anger; he will surely pursue them.”

Upon hearing this, Trent Preston laughed, “That’s Daley for you, always reliable in getting things done.”

Simon Cooper chuckled too, though he felt somewhat uneasy.

He couldn’t help but think that the plan was risky—would Barry Wolfe really walk into such an obvious trap?

And even if he did show up, could the people that Troy Milton had summoned manage to kill him?

Simon Cooper was momentarily lost in thought before he couldn’t help but laugh at himself. He felt like he was worrying too much—this time, not only had they recruited many half-step Grandmasters, but they also had Grandmaster Duncan Kong on their side.

If they still couldn’t kill Barry Wolfe with this lineup, he would just resign himself to his fate.
