Chapter 277 Receiving the Most Important Person!
The three martial arts masters from the Jones family had been written off as washed-up by the outside world for a long time. But now, did they actually have the power of a Martial Arts Lord?!
Noah frowned and asked, "How did they get so strong? What's going on? What secrets is the Jones family hiding?"
Remembering the old, mysterious rumors about the Jones Manor, Noah and those around him shivered.
Suddenly, they recalled Amelia turning down the Central State Medical Academy's invitation might not have been impulsive or foolish after all. There had to be more to it!
Just then, Cameron stepped forward with a smug grin. "Folks from Sunview City, I've seen what the Lords of Martial Arts can do... and it's not much! You still wanna keep going?"
Provocation!
Blatant provocation!
But the group from Sunview City had no comeback.
Even though Noah had brought ten Martial Arts Lords, with Black Fist Joel defeated, they didn't stand a chance!
The people from Sunview City never imagined they'd be humiliated by the so-called "peasants" of Starlight City, which they'd always seen as a backwater town!
But they had to swallow their pride.
Cameron warned coldly. "I don't care if you're from the Central State Medical Academy or a Martial Arts Lord, you don't mess with the Jones family! I won't touch you, but don't you dare touch me either!"
The Crimson Brothers stepped forward, radiating a deadly aura. "That's right! Don't even think about messing with this place! Anyone who tries will be killed! Now get lost!"
"You..."
Noah and his group gritted their teeth in anger but had no choice but to retreat in disgrace.
Dragging the injured Joel away, this was his most humiliating day—ever.
After leaving the Jones Manor, everyone was dejected.
Whether from the Central State Medical Academy or Joel's faction, when had they ever suffered such humiliation?
"Noah, what now? Should we just go back?" Anson and the others asked, their eyes full of resentment.
Jolene ground her teeth. "Not only were we humiliated, but we didn't even find out what's being grown inside the Jones Manor! It's too shameful!"
Just then, a prodigy from a martial arts family suddenly spoke up, "Did any of you notice the central area of the Jones family's herb garden?"
"I did! That area was deliberately separated from the other medicinal zones. When we first entered, it seemed like the Crimson Brothers were guarding it!"
"Exactly! I also noticed that the place was brimming with medicinal energy, with swirling currents! It must be growing some extremely high-grade herbs!"
Everyone started discussing it all at once.
Noah's face darkened. "You all noticed it too? The Jones family is definitely cultivating some kind of rare treasure! We need to find out what it is!"
He immediately ordered. "Alright, you all head back. I'll stay in Starlight City to investigate…"
Anson quickly suggested, "Noah, you can go to Hope Pharmaceutical. It's owned by the Watson family. Our people there can arrange everything for you and help gather information."
"What? The top prodigy of Central State Medical Academy wants us to host him?"
When the Watson family received Rick's message, they were stunned.
This was undoubtedly the most important person they had ever hosted!
Adrian had great potential, but Noah was already a representative of Central State Medical Academy and the next in line for leadership.
His status was top-tier even in Sunview City, let alone in Starlight City!
Jasmine Watson's eyes gleamed, just yesterday she had been thinking about how to get close to such an influential figure, and now the opportunity had come knocking on her door.
Rick laughed and said, "You should thank me. If I hadn't recommended the Watson family, Mr. Collins might have gone to the Merchants' Guild of Shadows instead…"
"Thank you, Dr. Parker!"
Jasmine and the other family members were puzzled. Yesterday Rick had said he couldn't get within thirty feet of such a person, and today he was recommending him to their family?
Something didn't add up.
But regardless, having such an important person hosted by their family was a tremendous opportunity.
