Rong Huangde was annoyed by Jamie’s arrogant words. He frowned and asked Jamie, “Who are you?”
Jamie flicked his sleeves and replied in an official tone, “I’m Jordan’s second brother and the current head of the Addington family, Jamie Steele!”
Actually, Rong Huangde knew who Jamie was. Jordan was a Deity so Rong Huangde knew everyone linked to him like the back of his hand.
He was simply asking to make a point.
Rong Huangde said to Jamie, “You are merely a thief, you’re not worthy to talk to me.”
“You…”
Jamie was completely speechless.
Rong Huangde’s expression suddenly changed. His face was filled with smiles as he looked at Lota again.
“Lota, I like hearing you speak up. You make a valid point. You and Bingshao are about the same age. Actually, I already have plans for you and Bingshao to get married. Tom and I will probably be very happy to have our two families linked by marriage.”
A smile appeared on Tom Schmid’s face as if he was very satisfied with this prospect.
Now that it was confirmed that Lota could not marry Jordan, the second best choice would definitely be the grandson and the future successor of the Rong family!
But Lota only had Jordan in her heart. Why would she marry Rong Bingshao?
Lota said, “I’m sorry, Mr. Rong. The man I like has to be responsible. He has to take the initiative to take responsibility for something he did wrong, instead of behaving like a coward, hiding under the protection of his elders. In the end, this is just a grudge between Rong Bingshao and Jordan. Can the rest of us not interfere? Why can we not let the two of them settle it like adults?”
Jamie quickly interjected. “That’s right! Rong Bingshao is an adult, right? He’s already 18 years old and has come of age. He should take responsibility for his actions. Why is he still relying on his grandfather?”
Rong Huangde frowned. He had a good impression of Lota and planned to let her be with Rong Bingshao. In addition, given the current situation, if Rong Huangde insisted on protecting Rong Bingshao, it would greatly impact his reputation which he had built up over the years.
On top of that, Rong Bingshao had too little life experience. Now, they were about to travel 10 years back in time to Cocodrie. No one could tell what big secret they would discover.
Perhaps, the state of this current world would suddenly turn. They had to be ready for battle.
Perhaps this was an opportunity to let Rong Bingshao grow quickly. Otherwise, once Rong Huangde died, his grandson would definitely not be Jordan’s match.
Rong Huangde thought for a moment. “Lota, you’re right. I’m an old man, and this is a feud between young people. Maybe I shouldn’t interfere.”
Jordan was taken aback. “Are you really willing to not interfere in this matter?”
As long as Rong Huangde did not interfere, Jordan could easily kill Rong Bingshao!
Rong Huangde looked at Jordan. “Mr. Jordan, you should know that ever since I met you, I have always been very respectful to you. I never thought of making you my enemy. If I could predict what my grandson would do, I would never let him do such a stupid thing!”
When Jordan heard Rong Huangde’s words, his tone became much more polite. “Mr. Rong Huangde, I respect you as much as I respect my grandfather. I promise you that as long as you don’t interfere in this matter, I will continue to work with you and help you uncover the secrets you want to know.”
Hearing this, the eyes of Geng Anli, Tom Schmid and the others lit up.
It sounded like they had been working on some secret matter?
However, the other families had no idea what it was.
Rong Huangde smiled. “You blew up my base. How can we work together?”
Jordan also smiled and said, “With Mr. Rong’s foresight, it’s impossible for him not to have a backup, right?”
The two of them stopped there and did not mention the Time Gate. The others were confused.
Rong Huangde laughed out loud. “Hahaha, as expected of a Deity. You’re indeed powerful. Alright, I look forward to continuing to work with you!”
At this moment, Jamie sneered. “Don’t speak too soon. When my brother kills your precious grandson, you probably won’t be in the mood to work with him anymore. Hehe.”
Rong Huangde snorted. “Who said that Bingshao will definitely be killed by Jordan?”
Jordan asked, “You still plan to protect him?”
Rong Huangde reached out his hands and said, “Mr. Jordan, you’ve misunderstood. I’ve already said that I won’t interfere in the matter between you and Bingshao. I’ll let the two of you settle it yourselves. But that doesn’t mean that Bingshao will lose to you. He has hands and feet too. He won’t just stand there and be killed by you.”
Jordan said confidently, “Please forgive me for being blunt. If you don’t protect him and let the two of us fight one-on-one, I can easily finish him off without even using my Deity ability.”
After all, Jordan had fought with Rong Bingshao before. He was probably one of the more outstanding ones among his peers.
But compared to Jordan, the difference was too great.
It was like the difference between a street ball player and an NBA professional.
Rong Huangde said, “Oh? You’re saying that in terms of physique, combat, intelligence and strategy, my grandson is inferior to you?”
Jordan was not embarrassed. “Although this is a blow to your family, your grandson is indeed inferior to me in every way.”
Jamie also laughed. “Hahaha, Rong Huangde, we don’t mean to look down on the Rong family. You don’t have to be sad. Our grandfather let us experience all kinds of situations since we were young boys. The grandchildren of the other families are all treated like precious treasures. They can’t compare to us, understand?”
Rong Huangde nodded as if he agreed. “Well, I think my grandson’s intelligence might be slightly better than yours. Even so, his physique is indeed much inferior to yours. After all, you were injected with the Mirakuru serum.”
Jamie was very angry. “B*stard! What do you mean by that? You said that Rong Bingshao is smarter than my brother? In your dreams, right?”
Hearing this assertion, Jordan also felt rather annoyed. It was as if he had to rely on the Mirakuru serum to win.
Rong Huangde’s subordinate, Lee Su-ji, also stood up and said, “That’s not fair! Deity Jordan, you’re a Deity. You already have the upper hand as you can predict the future. Moreover, you’ve been injected with the Mirakuru serum, and your body is far stronger than ordinary people. With such a huge advantage, even if you defeat Young Master Rong, where’s the glory in that?”
Even Geng Anli said, “Jordan, your physical advantage is indeed too great. I understand that very well.”
Jordan clenched his fists, feeling very uncomfortable. “Even if I don’t have the Mirakuru serum, it will be easy for me to kill Rong Bingshao!”
Rong Huangde said slowly, “I have a medical team here that can temporarily extract the Mirakuru serum from your body. I wonder if Mr. Jordan is willing? This way, your battle with my grandson will be a fair one!”
