Chapter 397 A catastrophe
On their way back.
Sophia lowered her head.
She had never felt so reserved.
This was a normal mentality.
Just like when Bertha first knew that John was the King of Horizon, she almost knelt down to him. But she quickly
adapted to it since John was her little brother.
Sophia was different.
She knew John because of Anita. They hadn’t known each other for a long time.
In the past, she felt grateful and well-disposed to John. But now, she dared not express her true feelings to him. She
felt even more humble in front of him.
John’s identity as a cultivator was too shocking.
Of course, John noticed the change in Sophia. When she walked, she didn’t dare to get too close to him and fell a
few steps behind silently. “Miss. Long, am I a monster?” He smiled bitterly.
“What?”
John’s answer dragged her to her senses. “Well, no… No, Mr. Lopez, I’m just… I…” She stammered.
“Okay, I understand.”
As he spoke, he slowed down his pace and walked side by side with Sophia.
At first, she was still a little scared. She slowed down her pace too unconsciously, her gaze falling on him
again.
John had no choice but to slow down again. “Miss. Long, I think at our speed, perhaps Robert will arrive at
the Long Family before us.” He grinned.
Sophia blushed.
She felt much more relaxed.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtIt turned out that Mr. Lopez was as easy-going as ever.
After a while, she asked, “Mr. Lopez, why should we wait for Gradian Tennat in the Long Family?”
Logically speaking, John killed Hardy. Robert, Hardy’s father, would definitely be furious. John could have waited at
the Zephyr Wolf-hunting Ground, and Robert would arrive soon.
There was no need to waste time waiting in the her Family.
With a gleam shining in his eyes, John said, “Because some of your family members make me very unhappy. I’ll
take this opportunity to solve them together.”
Sophia’s heart skipped a beat.
She knew who John was referring to
When the two of them returned to the Long Family, Brooke was obviously stunned. He asked, “Why did you come
back so soon?”
He knew about Hardy’s plan.
To be exact, it was him who put up with such an idea for Hardy. According to the normal situation, John should have
been beaten half disabled now
But judging from the fact that John was standing in front of him unharmed, things didn’t go as he had expected.
“Are you surprised to see us come back so early?” John cast a tacit glance at Brooke.
Hearing that, Brooke face changed slightly. He smiled awkwardly and said, “I’m just a little surprised. Sophia was
participating in the actual combat training, right? I didn’t expect it to end so fast.”
“Well, something special happened.” Answered John.
Brooke wanted to say something but stopped on second thoughts.
Of course he wanted to ask what had happened in the Zephyr Wolf-hunting Ground, but he was afraid it would
expose his intention, so he restrained himself.
He planned to find a corner and called Hardy to ask what was going on.
At this time, John took the initiative to say, “We met Hardy at the wolf-hunting ground.”
Pausing for a second, Brooke blurted out, “And then?”
“Then I killed him.”
John made light of it.
Brooke’s eyes widened in shock, as if he was lost in his thoughts.
“In the name of the entertainment competition, Hardy wanted to make me a murderer. But I noticed it, so I
killed him.”
He was still as calm as if he was just talking about the weather.
After saying that, he looked at Brooke with a faint smile, appreciating the change of his expression.
As expected, Brooke’s face changed dramatically.
His heart kept pounding.
He stood there like a puppet.
Judging from what John said, Brooke was sure that their plan was carried out smoothly, at least to the step of
framing.
Then it was a safe bet, right?
He had planted it on John and all he needed to do next was to find an expert and let him cripple John
How could there be an accident?
Was it possible that Hardy was killed by John before he could escape and call for back-up?
It was highly possible.
But Brooke didn’t believe it.
He was unwilling to believe that John dared to kill Hardy After all, Hardy’s father was the new guardian of the
Central Martial Arts League. How could John dare to kill his son?
Brooke’s face turned pale and his eyes twinkled. “You are so good at joking, Mr. Lopez. I… Something came up, I
have to go now.”
Then he left in a hurry, came to a quiet place and called Hardy.

No one answered.
He frowned in confusion.
Was Hardy really died?
No way.
No way!
ww
Killing Hardy was equivalent of committing suicide! Hardy’s powerful support was the Central Martial Arts League,
no martial artist dared to offend it!
It should be because that Hardy was busy for the time being and it was inconvenient for him to answer the
phone.
Brooke still couldn’t believe it.
About half an hour later.
An angry roar came from outside and resounded through the entire Long Family.
“John Lopez, get the fuck out of here right now!”
It was Robert’s voice.
As expected, he came.
His roar startled the whole Long Family. All of the family members ran to the gate of the yard with a frightened look
on their faces, trying to see what had happened that made Guardian Tennat so angry.
Arno, Buck and Brooke also rushed to the gate.
They were all confused, except for Brooke.
A feeling of unease nagged at him.
A deep and strong sense of unease!
What John said before was true? Did he really kill Hardy? That was why Guardian Tennat was so furious now!
If so, it was a disaster for the whole Long Family!
