Chapter 974
He quickly pondered whether he had any notable achievements under his belt.
Unfortunately, all he could recall was injuring someone with a fishbone and standing up to a bully who tried to take over the public restroom last time. He was truly far inferior to his senior brother!
“So, this is your reason for challenging me?” Emmanuel furrowed his brows suddenly, feeling that Magnus might be involved in this matter. Otherwise, how would the sect leader of Templar Valor know about these things when they’re in such a remote town?
“There’s another reason!” Alfwhit’s eyes suddenly carried a hint of hostility as he said, “I heard that my girlfriend used to be married to you!”
Emmanuel blinked at the man dumbfoundedly since the first person that came to his mind was Mackenzie.
What on Earth?
Has the sect leader of Templar Valor lost his mind somewhere along the way?
How could Mackenzie possibly be his girlfriend?
Terence was also quite surprised.
Shane was even more dumbfounded as he looked at his senior brother. He never expected that the sect leader of Templar Valor would be interested in his senior brother’s ex!
His senior brother is amazing!
The onlookers around were even more excited, and they couldn’t wait for more gossip to unfold!
Today’s duel is becoming more and more interesting!
“Emmanuel, Mr. Zamora, would you let me be the referee for your duel today?” Just at this moment, a familiar voice sounded. Contentt bel0ngs to N0ve/lDrâ/ma.O(r)g!
Emmanuel was once again stunned, finally realizing who the woman Mr. Zamora had just mentioned was!
He turned his head and saw that it was indeed Queenie Banner!
However, how could this woman be in Anchortown?
How did she become Mr. Zamora’s girlfriend?
This question also popped up in Shane’s mind. So, he couldn’t help but mutter under his breath, “What a woman who changes boyfriends like changing clothes!”
Only Terence knew a little more. The last time they went to Hero’s Village due to Mackenzie’s disappearance, Alfred quickly investigated this Queenie woman. Her boyfriend at the time was long deceased!
In other words, the man by her side at that time wasn’t her boyfriend at all! There was even a chance that the mysterious man was the Snake Master in disguise!
Regardless, Terence had no idea what was going on.
All he was certain of was that Queenie was far from a good person!
“Can we avoid fighting?” Emmanuel finally spoke.
This was his response to Alfwhit’s challenge and Queenie’s offer to be the referee.
He didn’t want to fight Alfwhit in the first place. As a matter of fact, his intention of fighting the man went down to the negatives the moment he saw that Queenie had intervened!
What if others misunderstood that he was dueling Alfwhit just for Queenie?
This was Mackenzie’s hometown! What if this matter reached his wife’s ears?
He wouldn’t be able to clear his name even if he tried!
“Hmph, not fight?”
Philips roared on the spot, “You disabled one of my arms yesterday and injured my men! Mr. Zamora and I are sworn brothers. If you don’t fight, just do us all a favor and remove one of your arms before you leave!”
“Oh, this reason is worth fighting for!”
Emmanuel immediately responded, “If I defeat Mr. Zamora, then yesterday’s incident can be forgotten, right?”
Originally, both Philips and Alfwhit could accept this statement. Unfortunately, Emmanuel just had to sigh before continuing, “I don’t want to keep bullying you even though you guys are nothing but scum.”
Pfft!
Philips felt as though he was about to burst a vein after hearing those words!
How arrogant!
Alfwhit also bellowed angrily, “Stop talking nonsense. We will definitely fight it out today!”
Clatter! Clatter! Clatter!
Then, he quickly charged toward Emmanuel as he exuded an imposing aura.
Everyone present took a sharp breath as they had never seen the sect leader of Templar Valor so eager for battle!
Alfwhit seemed to be holding back a great deal of resentment and was in desperate need of venting it!
He didn’t hesitate to strike a palm toward Emmanuel. His attack was so fierce that a gust of wind followed, making it seem as though each attack held a hurricane of its own.
It was as if his palm contained a mighty power ready to strike true!
Emmanuel frowned as he observed the attack. He was certain that Alfwhit was a very diligent and hardworking -martial artist!
This palm contained the determination of over 20 years of brutal training.
Hence, the person who could generate such a terrifying aura with a single palm was far from a simple adversary!
Since he didn’t expect the sudden attack, he had lost the initiative. So, he could only take a step back.
Logically speaking, the force of the strike would gradually weaken after the individual had directed their attack. As Alfwhit’s target was where Emmanuel had just been standing earlier, the palm’s force should have dissipated once it arrived at its destination.
Yet, the characteristic of the Templar Palm was that the palm force could flow continuously. Thus, the enormous palm came right at Emmanuel’s face as Alfwhit spun around.
