Chapter 816 A Powerful Background
At the same time, Jared was pleading in his room. “Rayleigh, just tell me what did Draco want the girls to do? What
did he mean when he said those words?” he asked Rayleigh.
“I’ll explain to you another time. For now, you need to get some sleep. You have a lot to do on Dragon Island
tomorrow. Remember, do not trust anyone that is not on your team when you’re on that island,” Rayleigh told
Jared.
“Aren’t you coming with me?” Jared was surprised.
Rayleigh shook his head. “I’ve told you that the Deragons will find out who you really are if I were to go with you.
You and the ladies will be enough for this mission. Melanie and I shall wait for your good news back here.”
Hearing that, Jared thought Rayleigh was making sense. Well, I doubt he’ll tell me anything else soon, so I guess I
should just go to sleep. The men went to sleep shortly thereafter.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtJared and his team left the hotel and headed for the pier at daybreak the next morning. Even though they were
early, the pier was already packed with people. A ferry that was five-stories high was docked at the pier. The ferry
alone could take a thousand passengers, and that was proof that there were a lot of people heading to Dragon
Island.
Although everyone knew that Dragon Island might be a one-way ticket to hell, they couldn’t resist the temptation of
the reward. Everyone wanted to get their hands on the island’s treasure, and they decided to make the trip despite
knowing its dangers.
The ticket inspector checked all the passengers for tickets. A lot of them had no tickets, and they tried to sneak past
the inspector, though none made it through. The Deragons sponsored the ferry, so all the staff members were
made up of the Deragon family members. As such, it was nigh impossible to ride on the ferry without a ticket.
“Did you see that? A Senior Grandmaster tried to sneak onto the ferry, but he got beaten up and tossed overboard.
I wonder who the Deragons are.”
“It’s my first time hearing about them too. They’re probably a hidden clan. Even the ticket inspectors are
Grandmasters. I think we should just play by the rules.”
Two martial artists were in a silent discussion not far away from Jared, though they weren’t silent enough to not let
Jared overhear.
When Jared heard that all the staff members on the ferry were part of the Deragons, he felt like razing them down
for torturing his mother. However, he kept his bloodlust in control. He knew he wasn’t powerful enough to go
against the Deragons just yet.
All he could do was hold his fury down. Once he became powerful enough, he would charge toward the Deragons
and save his mother. If that path was to be laid with murder, then so be it. Jared would do anything for his mother
that he had never seen.
Just when everyone was waiting in line for their turn, a group of people barged in and told everyone to make way
for them. Jared turned to see who it was, and to his surprise, he saw Kristoff and his lackeys taking the first spot in
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmline.
Since it was Kristoff, nobody said anything and simply made way for them.
When Kristoff walked past Jared and the ladies, he shot Jared a look. Even though Kristoff and his men had broken
the rules, the inspector didn’t say anything. Instead, he let them through.
Just when everyone was going to line up and wait for their turn again, another commotion happened, and another
group of people cut through the line.
It was a group of men led by a young man with red hair and dressed in red clothes to match. When everyone saw
the young man, they gasped.
“That’s Kenneth ‘Flashfire’ Carrall!”
Fear welled up in everyone’s eyes, and they hurriedly made way for him.
“Even this guy is here too?” The man in front of Jared looked crestfallen.
“Who is that guy, mister?” Jared looked at the man before him curiously.
Jared could feel that the young man was just a Senior Grandmaster. He could tell that even Kristoff was more
powerful than the young man was, but everyone seemed to be scared of him more than they did Kristoff. That’s
odd.
