Chapter 619: Chapter 619: Issuing a Challenge_1
After leaving West Lake Garden with everyone, Lesley Davis imdiately called Greg Jensen, but the phone rang for a long ti without answer.
Lesley Davis was dumbfounded, like a restless old dog that couldn’t find peace throughout the day.
On one hand, he felt that notifying Barry Wolfe was useless, since he couldn’t defeat the old Grandmaster anyway, and would be dead sooner or later.
On the other hand, he thought that if he didn’t notify him and Barry Wolfe really died, he would also be in trouble.
Lesley Davis was as anxious as an ant on a hot pan, yet felt utterly helpless.
…
“Grandpa, Greg saved our entire family’s life.”
Theresa Locke said urgently, “If it weren’t for Greg, our Locke family might no longer exist. How can we stand by and do nothing at this ti?”
Noah Locke frowned and said, “Hasn’t he also taken things from our family? In the end, it was just a transaction.”
Theresa Locke said eagerly, “Dad, it’s a life-saving grace. Last ti at Healington, it was fine not to get involved, but this ti…”
At this mont, Elder Locke suddenly spoke, “Soone take Theressa to Anita Garden and forbid her from going out!”
“Grandpa!”
Theresa Locke looked at Elder Locke in disbelief, unable to believe that her grandfather, who had always been caring, was actually going to lock her up.
“Last ti, it was forgivable, but if you act recklessly again this ti, it will bring about a disaster for the Locke family!”
Elder Locke said with a cold face, waving his hand, “Lock her up, forbid her from contacting anyone. If she dares to step out of Anita Garden, break her legs!”
Before his voice faded, two bodyguards erged from the corner.
The two n approached Theresa Locke, and one of them said, “Miss, you’d better go by yourself, don’t make it difficult for us.”
Theresa Locke clenched her teeth tightly, with a look of intense hate, took a deep glance at her grandfather, then turned around and left without saying a word.
Following the two bodyguards out of the villa, they arrived at Anita Garden, located in the corner of the manor.
“Miss, if you need anything, just let us know.”
Anita Garden had only one old servant in charge of cleaning. He arranged the room for Theresa Locke and then retreated.
Theresa Locke was miserably upset. She had intended to persuade her grandfather to go to East Peak Manor to help Greg Jensen against Walter Locke, but not only had she failed to accomplish this, she had also been locked up herself.
As she was in the midst of her irritation, suddenly, a ray of light shot in from the outside, flickering a few tis before going out.
Theresa Locke was startled, went to the window and looked out, only to see a slender figure standing on the wall, holding a flashlight and waving at her.
She quickly opened the window and exclaid in surprise, “Doris, how did you get here?”
Doris Locke agilely climbed into the yard and then up to the second floor along the drainpipe.
Theresa Locke watched with a dark expression, unable to hold back her scolding, “You’re a decent young lady, climbing walls and roofs in the middle of the night. How does that look?”
Doris Locke swung her long leg over the window, straddling it, rolled her eyes and said, “Do you still want to go to Qin Province or not?”
Theresa Locke’s eyes lit up, then dimd again as she sighed, “I would, but my ID card, cell phone, bank card, everything has been confiscated. How can I go?”
“Heh, isn’t that why I brought them to you?”
Doris Locke flipped her hand and took out a small bag, opening it to reveal Theresa Locke’s docunts, cell phone, and other items.
“Ah, you’re truly my dear sister.”
Theresa Locke, seeing these items, was overjoyed and about to take them when Doris retracted her hand.
“You can go to Qin Province if you want, but there’s one condition.”
“What condition?”
Doris’s cheeks flushed slightly and she said, looking up, “You have to take with you.”
Upon hearing this, Theresa Locke’s expression imdiately changed as she said, “What are you going to do? You know full well how capable Walter Locke is. If a fight breaks out, he won’t have ti to look after you.”
Doris Locke snorted coldly, “Give a break, as if you could get involved if there were a fight.”
“I…”
“Stop wasting words and just tell if you’re in or not.”
With a stern look, Doris Locke said, “Don’t say I didn’t warn you. I’ve been out for half a day already. If any more ti passes, I might get discovered.”
Theresa Locke, gritting her teeth, said, “Fine, we’ll go together, but you have to obey .”
“Deal!”
Doris Locke’s face lit up with joy as she quickly helped Theresa Locke pack, and then they climbed over the wall to escape from Anita Garden.
The two of them ran outside the manor and got into a car that had been prepared in advance, heading straight for Mystic Airport.
“Doris, why are you so adamant about coming with to Qin Province?”
“Oh co on, why do you care so much.”
Doris Locke refused to answer, but her cheeks grew even rosier.
For so reason, ever since the last ti she saw Greg Jensen, his image frequently appeared in her dreams, and each ti it did, he was always doing sothing rather embarrassing.
She was normally fine, but her restlessness beca uncontainable whenever her family discussed him.
This was why, upon learning of her brother’s detention, she deliberately stole Theresa Locke’s things to accompany her to Qin Province.
Now, all she wanted was to see him as soon as possible, even if it were just a single glance.
…
The news that Walter Locke was going to challenge the Miraculous Divine Doctor and the charming Magician, Grandmaster Barry Wolfe, quickly spread throughout the eighteen cities of Jiangnan.
It even spread throughout the whole of China; the whole Ancient Martial Arts and upper social circles knew about this news, causing a significant stir and leading to spirited discussions.
“I want to go to Qin Province to lend Grandmaster Wolfe a hand. What do you all think?”
“But… what about the Grandmaster…”
“Is the Grandmaster your dad? Worst cos to worst, we die, what are you dilly-dallying about? You’re acting like a woman.”
“Then let’s go together.”
“Right, if it weren’t for Grandmaster Wolfe’s help last ti, I’d have lost my life long ago.”
Upon receiving the news, people like the King of Divine Legs imdiately set off for Qin Province. Even if they couldn’t help in the fight, just being there to show support would be worthwhile.
They were well aware that their journey might be one way, with no chance of return.
Walter Locke had been famous for many years, and it was heard that he had recently made a breakthrough into the realm of Path Entry, reaching the legendary level.
How could Barry Wolfe, who was only in his twenties, possibly defeat him?
The re bystanders offering their support would be no match for Walter Locke. A single slap from him would suffice to dispose of them all.
But people in the martial world value repaying kindness.
Since Greg Jensen had once saved their lives, they couldn’t pretend to be oblivious.
Besides them, a large number of Martial Artists from all over the country set out for Qin Province, intending to witness this battle of the century.
One was an established Grandmaster in the realm of Path Entry; the other was a burgeoning young warrior. The outco hardly needs saying.
What people really cared about was the level each fighter had reached.
After all, Walter Locke had already broken through into the realm of Path Entry, and Greg Jensen seed to be a mighty fighter of the sa realm as well.
Such a level of combat was extrely rare, and missing the chance to witness it firsthand would truly be a regret for life.
