Wolves, Maces, And Blood

Chapter 130 The Head of the old Monster

Sean’s pupils were constricted.

He had certainly thought about what the elder Campbell had said, and he had been worrying about it in

his mind these days.

Sean thought about it and said quietly, “I’ll stick with that.”

“Anyone who bullied me will be punished!”

The implication was that he did not mean to seize the hegemony, but, if some people insisted on

random suspicion and bullied him, then sorry, he would not sit still and let himself being slaughtered!

Like the Rodriguez Family!

The hatred between Sean and the Rodriguez family was nothing more than the death of Ben

Rodriguez. But it was not Sean who killed Ben Rodriguez, and Shawn Rodriguez was being gunned

down and wanted to be buried with Sean.

So, the Rodriguez family was gone!

The same went for everyone else. Sean’s conscience was clear, so he had nothing to fear!

“Well said.”

The elder Campbell stood up and said gravely, “I admire your openness and aboveboard attitude.”

“But then again.”

“As the saying goes, be careful not to harm others, but to guard against others. If you wait until

someone bullies you, it’s probably too late to fight back.”

“With your strength, you can be fearless of anyone’s threat, but what about your relatives and friends?

Do you want a repeat of what happened five years ago? Do you want to lose your family and then

avenge them?”

“…”

The elder Campbell said the Buddhist chant, shook his head and sighed, and then continued, “The

dead are gone. The so-called revenge is only the comfort of the living, and meaningless to the dead.”

“So, even if you don’t want to fight for hegemony, you should have enough strength to protect yourself,

enough power to protect your family and friends.”

“Right?”

Strength. Sean had it now, enough to protect himself.

And power...

At the end of the day, the elder of the Campbell family still wanted to persuade Sean to form his own

forces and develop secretly. At that point, Sean was powerful enough to protect his family and friends,

but he was already on the road to hegemony even if he didn’t want to.

The old monk was very clever!

Speaking of which, Sean already knew what the old monk was up to. He stared at the old monk and

asked, “If I follow your advice, your Campbell family will assist me.”

“On the other hand!”

“What if I stick to my guns? Are you going to betray me, betray my secret, and kill me?”

When the old monk said this to Sean, he actually gave him something to hold on to.

If Sean got word out about this, the whole Campbell family would suffer!

So, if Sean didn’t kill him, would he kill Sean?

After all, life and death were at stake!

“Well.”

Meeting Sean’s scrutiny, the old monk smiled and said, “Don’t worry. From the moment I uttered the

words “Bright World”, I had bound myself and the Campbell family to you.”

“If you insist, let’s pretend nothing happened today.”

We kept quiet and kept secrets from others.

“Oh?”

Sean raised his eyebrows in disbelief and asked, “Really?”

The old monk stretched out his hand and said, “Please follow me.”

With that, he turned and walked to the two-story building opposite. Sean hesitated a little and followed

him. He released Dark Energy, keeping a little wary.

Squeak

The old monk walked in front, stretched out his hand to open the door of the small building,

immediately there was a smell of sandalwood. In the main hall of the small building, a Buddha statue

was enshrined.

An offering was placed in front of the Buddha, and sandalwood was burning.

The cigarettes were curling. It was foggy inside. Sean walked in, looked around, and saw two wooden

boxes on the altar in front of the Buddha, in addition to the offerings.

One on the left, one on the right, and he didn’t know what it contained.

However, Sean’s sense of smell was much sharper than the average person. He took a few sniffs and

faintly smelled a faint, undetectable smell of blood.

Damn!

“This old monk lives alone in the backyard of Cloudy Villa and looks kind. He’s not doing anything

about murder and robbery, is he?” he thought to himself.

Sean’s heart sank. Looking at the back of the old monk, he felt even more wary.

The old monk strode over to the altar, reached over, and picked up the wooden box on the left, then

turned and handed it to Sean, saying, “Please have a look!”

“What’s that?”

Sean frowned. He was sure that the smell of blood had come from the crate. The smell of blood grew

stronger now that the crate was within sight.

The old monk said with a smile, “You’ll see if you open it.”

“Okay.”

Sean nodded. Instead of reaching for it, he lifted the lid.

Then he looked down.

“Fuck!”

Then, Sean’s pupils constricted and his heart twitched. He had guessed a little before he opened the

box, but it turned out to be wrong.

The wooden box was filled with a bloody head!

And, Sean knew the owner of the head. It was the old monster who attacked Sean and got his arm cut

off by Sean at the Rodriguez family villa a few days ago.

Sean thought the old monster had escaped the Crane Town and gone back to the Capital City to tip off

his master. So, he had been a little worried these days that he might get killed if the secret of his

breakthrough into Bright World was leaked.

But he did not expect the old monk to kill the old monster unexpectedly and quietly for him!

“…”

The old monk closed the lid of the wooden box and placed it again on the offering table with an

expression of compassion. He said, “May he rest in peace.”

Then he turned to look at Sean and said with a smile, “He and I were the only people who knew about

it, and even Zackary was confused and didn’t know the details.”

“Until now, he is gone, so you can rest assured that your secret will never be divulged.”

Was the old monk taking credit?

Of course not!

He was trying to show Sean that he was sincere, that he was not going to stab Sean in the back and

sell him out.

Otherwise, he could have kept quiet about the killing of the old monster. Then, even if he leaked Sean’s

secret, Sean’s first suspect would be the old monster, not him.”

“Thank you.”

Sean didn’t change his mind about it, but he had to admit that the monk did him a favor.

The old monk said with a smile, “At 8:00 p.m., at the end of Hanging Bridge, by the Kats River, you will

fight Yorky to the death. You’re more than capable of handling just one Yorky.”

“However, Yorky may not be the only one waiting in the wings to make a move. You can’t show your full

strength in front of the public. If you play one against two, or even one against three, it’s dangerous.”

“I’ll be guarding at the Campbell house, in case something happens, and I can’t be there to help you,

so I got you a present. It should help you out when the chips are down…”

With that, he reached over and picked up the crate on his right and handed it to Sean.
