420: A powerful butler, easily subdued
Stephen still tried to contact Hankins, and unsurprisingly, he naturally failed to reach him.
Back then, Stephen had specially constructed a basement, the purpose of which was to ensure no one disturbed his pleasure-seeking; thus, the basement contained signal jamming devices. Moreover, he also treated the basement as his personal sanctuary, so if enemies ever entered the manor, he could hide in the basement and wait for rescue to arrive.
Therefore, all three rooms in the basement cost him a fortune, utilizing the most robust materials so that even ordinary missiles could not destroy them. Furthermore, for maximum security, he had equipped all three rooms with the world's most advanced technology. The room passwords would frequently change, and only he and those familiar with him knew the pattern; without knowing the pattern, it was impossible to enter the rooms.
Naturally, each room was also large enough, storing sufficient food for two people to live comfortably for a full year.
"You must find a way to leave. As long as Hankins stays in the room, he will be safe."
Knowing he could not contact Hankins at the moment, Stephen could only give an order to his butler.
"Understood."
The butler agreed without hesitation upon hearing Stephen's words. He glanced at the manor one last time, then immediately chose to break out.
The butler was naturally very powerful. During his escape, he encountered some Members of the Heavenly Lord Society, but even fully armed, they were no match for him. After the butler easily killed them, he rushed quickly toward the vehicles, intending to seize a car and leave.
"We need to request backup. We have encountered a powerhouse, and he has killed more than ten of us."
"We need to request backup. We have encountered a powerhouse, and he has killed more than ten of us."
... The butler's strength made the Members of the Heavenly Lord Society realize they were absolutely no match for him, forcing them to continuously request assistance.
"I'll be right there."
Jiang Chuan heard the plea for help and immediately transmitted his reply.
"Understood, Azure Dragon Heavenly Lord. We are currently pursuing the target. That powerhouse is heading toward the vehicles now, presumably intending to steal one of our cars and escape this place."
The Members of the Heavenly Lord Society immediately felt relieved upon hearing Jiang Chuan's voice and informed him of the direction the butler was fleeing.
"Good."
Jiang Chuan replied with only one word, then was seen rushing quickly toward the location of the vehicles.
When Jiang Chuan arrived at the vehicles, he discovered a middle-aged man in his fifties who was currently slaughtering Members of the Heavenly Lord Society. Although these Members of the Heavenly Lord Society were armed, they were no match for the butler. After easily eliminating over a dozen people, the butler let out a dismissive laugh, intending to steal a car and leave the area.
"Did I give you permission to leave?"
Just as the butler was about to drive away, a cold voice suddenly entered his ears.
Hearing the voice, the butler instantly grew vigilant, his eyes revealing intense shock. He hadn't sensed anyone approaching, yet the voice had reached his ears, proving that the newcomer's strength must surpass his own.
Swish!
The butler frantically searched for Jiang Chuan's figure, when suddenly he saw Jiang Chuan abruptly appear in front of the vehicle.
The butler's expression grew increasingly solemn as he looked at the Young Man who had suddenly appeared in front of the car. He did not attempt to ram Jiang Chuan directly, understanding that trying to run over a powerhouse of this caliber was neither possible nor realistic.
"Who are you? There's no one like you in the Heavenly Lord Society!"
The butler slowly stepped out of the vehicle, staring coldly at Jiang Chuan as he spoke.
"You should know where Stephen is, shouldn't you?"
Jiang Chuan merely smiled upon hearing the butler's words, then looked at him and slowly spoke.
The butler did not answer Jiang Chuan either, merely gazing coldly at him.
Swish!
The butler made the first move. He stomped the ground, and his body instantly appeared before Jiang Chuan like a streak of light. The next moment, the butler launched a fierce attack aimed directly at Jiang Chuan's vital spot, his heart, intending to finish him in a single blow.
Before the butler's fist could land on Jiang Chuan, Jiang Chuan extended his right hand and tightly grasped the butler's right wrist, a cold voice entering the butler's ears.
"With this much strength, you shouldn't bother coming out and making a fool of yourself."
Upon hearing this, the butler's pupils constricted. The next moment, Jiang Chuan delivered a fierce punch aimed directly at his face. The butler wanted to dodge, but he couldn't pull his hand back. He could only watch as Jiang Chuan's punch slammed hard into his face. The immense force nearly knocked the butler unconscious, and he was sent flying backward violently.
"How is this possible!"
The butler slowly got up, looking at Jiang Chuan with shock and terror, having never expected Jiang Chuan's strength to be so immense.
The butler was extremely confident in his own power, believing himself to stand at the peak of the world, yet he was unable to withstand even a single move from Jiang Chuan. How could this be?
"Nothing is impossible!"
Jiang Chuan simply laughed disdainfully. Since he possessed the Golden Finger, his strength naturally crushed these fellows. He instantly appeared before the butler with such speed that the butler couldn't even react. Following that, Jiang Chuan kicked the butler away again, this time with even greater force.
Pfft.
The butler finally couldn't hold back and violently spat out a mouthful of fresh blood.
Jiang Chuan naturally wouldn't let the butler off, continuing to beat him until the butler could no longer endure it and completely lost consciousness. Only then did Jiang Chuan stop.
"Azure Dragon Heavenly Lord."
The Members of the Heavenly Lord Society arrived at this moment. Seeing that Jiang Chuan had subdued the butler, every person's eyes were filled with shock and reverence as they respectfully called out.
"Keep a close eye on him, and don't let him die. This fellow should know where Stephen is."
Jiang Chuan smiled, said this to the Members of the Heavenly Lord Society, and then turned and left the area.
"Understood, Azure Dragon Heavenly Lord."
The Members of the Heavenly Lord Society respectfully nodded, then retrieved specialized restraints and completely bound the butler, ensuring he had no way to escape.
