The Luckiest Dumb Doctor-Chapter 604 - Night Raid_1
Chapter 604: Chapter 604 Night Raid_1
“Oh? That saves some effort,”
Violet Robbins said to Keith Herbert and Archie Barnett, “That’s good. You no longer have to go to the northwest, head straight to Red River County. Be sure to bring the person back to me.”
“Yes, Sect Leader!”
Violet Robbins glanced at Lesley Davis and spoke, “You should come along as well, to prevent them from identifying the wrong person.”
“Understood.”
Though Lesley Davis feared Greg Jensen’s strength, he did not dare refuse when the Sect Leader of Healington personally commanded him and could only reluctantly agree.
The three of them spoke no more, boarding the helicopter and heading for Red River County, accompanied by two of Lesley Davis’s bodyguards.
At this time, Greg Jensen, after hearing Huang Lao Liu’s description, couldn’t help but frown.
He had originally thought that in this era of scarce Spiritual Energy, even if some cultivators survived, there wouldn’t be many.
The same held true for the Cultivation Sects—it would be quite remarkable to have one or two remaining.
However, from Huang Lao Liu, he learned that there were at least six such Cultivation Sects, not counting the Semi-hidden Door like Healington.
Greg Jensen puzzled, asked, “What is a Semi-hidden Door?”
Huang Lao Liu promptly explained, “Semi-hidden Door refers to those in comparison to the Hidden Gate. For example, Healington is a Semi-hidden Door, while its superior sect, the Danxia Sect, is a Hidden Gate.
Semi-hidden Doors still have some connections to the secular world, just not many, while Hidden Gates have no contact whatsoever.”
Greg Jensen frowned and said, “You’ve got some nerves then, daring to kill Healington’s Mad Ma, without fearing their retaliation?”
Huang Lao Liu chuckled and said, “Those from the Semi-hidden Doors are merely Martial practitioners. As long as they’re not at the Master Realm, they’re really nothing to worry about.
Moreover, that guy Mad Ma is cautious. If he came searching for treasure, he definitely wouldn’t tell others about it.
Let alone them finding Mad Ma’s body, even if they did, they wouldn’t suspect me.”
Greg Jensen nodded; this Huang Lao Liu indeed had some talent, bold yet careful, and also quick-witted.
Such a person, if well utilized, is a sharp tool, but if mismanaged, could harm oneself as well as others.
Huang Lao Liu tentatively asked, “Barry Wolfe, you’re asking so much, do you also have a conflict with Healington?”
“Not much of a conflict, just killed a few of their people, that’s all.”
“Haha, a kindred spirit.”
Huang Lao Liu laughed dryly and casually asked, “May I know which member of Healington Barry Wolfe killed?”
Greg Jensen said indifferently, “A man named Luke Barnett, I’m told he’s an external elder.”
“An external elder doesn’t matter, they’re just at the Master Realm. Healington won’t care,” Huang Lao Liu said.
Greg Jensen continued, “There was also Luke Barnett’s brother, Seth Barnett, who is also an external elder, though he has reached the Cultivation Realm.”
“The Cultivation Realm?”
The color drained from Huang Lao Liu’s face instantly, “May I ask, besides that Seth Barnett, was there anyone else?”
Greg Jensen nodded, “Yes, there was another, an inner sect’s cultivator named Curtis Milton.”
“Damn!”
Huang Lao Liu exclaimed, jumping to his feet in shock, staring at Greg Jensen with a stunned face, and said, “You also killed their inner sect’s cultivator?”
“Yes.”
“Inner sect cultivators are either exceptionally talented in the Martial Way or have unique insights into Alchemy; those are all key figures nurtured by Healington.
You’ve got some nerve to kill an inner sect cultivator of Healington and still dare to come to Danu?”
“What’s the issue?”
“What’s the issue? Danu is Healington’s headquarters.”
Huang Lao Liu said anxiously, “We must leave quickly. If we delay, we may not be able to leave at all.”
Greg Jensen’s expression shifted subtly, listening carefully to the movements outside, then with a meaningful look towards Huang Lao Liu, he said:
“You’re saying it’s too late, we can’t leave anymore.”
Huang Lao Liu was stunned, “Huh? What do you mean?”
“They’re already here.”
Before his voice faded, Greg Jensen had already smashed through the window and fled into the distance.
His voice carried from afar, “Wait for me here, if you can’t, head northwest.”
“Barry Wolfe is there!”
“Chase quickly!”
Listening to the noises fade away outside, Huang Lao Liu finally breathed a sigh of relief and, while unnoticed, he quietly slipped downstairs.
Downstairs, he brushed past two disciples from Healington who had come to investigate, then hailed a taxi and hurriedly left.
Elsewhere, right after rushing out of the hotel, Greg went straight for the deep forest.
The reason he ran wasn’t that he was afraid, but that certain techniques would be troublesome if ordinary people saw them.
Thus, he planned to lead them to the outskirts before dealing with them.
He was sprinting ahead while the three people behind weren’t slow either, Lesley Davis alone found it hard to keep up, having to muster all his True Qi and grit his teeth to follow.
The four of them, one after another, arrived in the woods, where Greg suddenly stopped, drew the Twilight Snow Knife, and looked coldly at the three people.
“Why are you chasing me?”
“Barry Wolfe, you killed Seth Barnett, a roaming healer and an elder from the inner gate of Healington, and you ask us why we’re chasing you?”
Keith Herbet stepped forward, sneering, “So young, with slender cultivation, yet you’ve got guts, killing our people from Healington and daring to come to Danu.”
How did they know?

Seeing Lesley Davis at his side, Greg had a realization and asked, “Lesley Davis, did you spill the beans about this?”
With two Grandmasters guarding his sides, Lesley’s confidence surged as he sneered, “So what if I did? What are you going to do about it, kill me?”
“First time I’ve heard such a despicable request.”
Greg said indifferently, “If that’s the case, then I will fulfill it!”
The next second, the knife’s light suddenly shone, slashing towards Lesley Davis.
The dazzling light flashed by, and when it re-emerged, it was already up close.
“Be careful!”
Keith’s face changed, and he quickly pushed Lesley aside.
The next second, the streak of knife light whizzed past the tip of Lesley’s nose.
Keith and Archie Barnett broke out in a cold sweat; they were ordered to come here and kill Barry, but if they ended up injuring Lesley first, their good days were over.
Keith said, “You go stand over there, we’ll handle this guy.”
“Then I’ll leave it to the two elders.”
Lesley offered a respectful bow, looked at Greg smugly, then sauntered off to the side, ready to watch the fight.
However, he had only taken two steps when Greg’s second knife strike came.
The speed of this air-slicing attack was even faster than the previous one, too swift for Lesley to react.
He instinctively shrank his neck and then performed a rolling dodge, avoiding critical damage, yet the blade light still struck him.
Spurt!
A gush of fresh blood sprayed out, and Lesley screamed in pain, struggling to stand up while clutching his arm and gritting his teeth, “Kill him, kill him now!”
Keith’s face was extremely ugly as he glared coldly at Greg, “Suicidal! How dare you hurt someone in front of me.”
Archie Barnett said solemnly, “Why waste words on him, let’s just catch him and get it over with.”
Keith nodded slightly, no longer speaking, slowly drew out his long knife, and watched Greg without a word, his aura rising ominously.
