Running A Cemetery in North America
Chapter 368 - 246: An Unexpected Guest
CHAPTER 368: CHAPTER 246: AN UNEXPECTED GUEST
After Monkey King actively became a factor for Sun Yan’s battle strategy, Sun Yan’s current power has been infinitely approaching that of an Immortal.
Before encountering a rival that can make him exert his full strength, even Sun Yan himself is unsure of the extent of his own power.
In the backyard of the main house, Sun Yan held an iron shovel to loosen the soil.
As he thrust the shovel, the force went directly underground, penetrating over ten meters, causing the entire area to soften.
All the weeds automatically flew out of the soil and landed neatly arranged beside him.
"Ever since I adopted this strategy, even work has become remarkably easier." Sun Yan couldn’t help but exclaim.
"Jackson, there’s someone outside looking for you."
At this moment, Elise came out with Dahuang from the main house and said to Sun Yan.
"Looking for me? Who?" Sun Yan put down the shovel and walked directly towards the front yard.
"Don’t know them, never seen them before, but the bird that brought them, I do know - it’s called Yidan."
"Crow Yidan? Why did it suddenly come over, and with company?"
Sun Yan felt puzzled and immediately expanded his Divine Power to instantly share Crow Yidan’s perspective.
Outside the main house’s door, stood a bearded Caucasian man in a suit.
He wore a black eyepatch like those used by Nordic Pirates over his right eye and leaned on a cane with a horse-head handle, exuding an aura that instantly marked him as a significant figure.
Such a person suddenly coming to his graveyard must be here for something important.
"Crow Yidan brought him over, could this be..."
Sun Yan suddenly recalled, Crow Yidan had told him before that the person it served was the fifth Speaker of the Evil God Council.
Compared to the first four Speakers, the fifth and sixth Speakers held lesser power and thus had less influence in daily affairs.
After killing the third and fourth Speakers, this fifth Speaker unexpectedly showed up at his doorstep, clearly with no simple purpose.
If this were in the past, Sun Yan might still exercise some caution.
But now he has implemented his battle strategy fourfold and the Mo Lihai Artwork absorbed by the Monkey King had transformed into the Monkey King Artwork.
Coupled with this being his territory, Sun Yan was naturally confident; even if an Immortal arrived, he feared no one.
Arriving at the front door, Crow Yidan immediately flew to Sun Yan’s side and whispered: "Master, the Speaker said he wishes to cooperate with you, so I brought him over."
"This is the fifth Speaker, I had only heard of him before, didn’t expect to meet him today." Sun Yan said casually.
"Mr. Jack, hello, it’s an honor to meet you, allow me to introduce myself, Arthur Roger."
The bearded man’s lone eye shone with a peculiar light, and Sun Yan immediately sensed that the aura of this stout but not particularly tall man was suddenly transformed.
A giant shadow resembling a Divine Spirit slowly appeared behind him.
It was a man with one eye and a long white beard, wearing an eagle helmet, draped in Golden Armor, wielding a long spear, and adorned with gold rings, seated on a throne.
Two fierce wolves lay beside his feet, two ravens perched on his shoulders.
Although Sun Yan couldn’t clearly see His face, there was no doubt that it was a Divine Spirit.
Without Sun Yan even needing to exert effort, a similarly giant shadow emerged from behind him.
A closed-eyed armored ape, crowned with feathers.
The bearded man had no time to react, instantly feeling a tightness in his chest, spitting out blood, staggering backward several steps.
"Put away your tricks, there’s no need to show off your power in front of me." Sun Yan said indifferently to Arthur.
"Your power is indeed remarkable, no wonder you could kill the third and fourth Speaker."
Arthur wiped the blood from his mouth, showing no anger, but rather an extraordinary exhilaration.
"This makes the topic of cooperation even more worth discussing."
"Cooperation?" Sun Yan raised an eyebrow.
"Yes, Mr. Jack removed two obstacles within the Evil God Council for me, aiding in elevating my influence in the Council, you indeed did me a great favor,
However, while Mr. Jack’s strength is formidable, you might not fully comprehend the terrifying underlying power of the Evil God Council, cultivated over more than two hundred years,
You killed two Speakers, and the Council’s retaliation will ensue; no matter how powerful Mr. Jack is, it’s impossible to defend against every attempt from the Council,
If we cooperate, I can help eliminate these troubles, ensuring the Council won’t have any conflict with you in the future." Arthur said earnestly.
"Seems like the Evil God Council isn’t monolithic on the inside, what kind of cooperation are you suggesting?" Sun Yan inquired.
"Assist me in removing the first and second Speaker, once accomplished, Mr. Jack will have a status within the Evil God Council like mine; I will share all the resources and connections the Council possesses with you, together we shall become the hidden Emperors of North America." Arthur said excitedly with clenched fists.
"Sounds good, let’s go inside and talk." Sun Yan walked into the main house, and with this invitation, Arthur willingly entered.
He immediately noticed Elise, Sosia, and Ailanda already sitting in the living room.
"Mr. Jack’s lovers are very pretty." Arthur remarked cordially with a smile.
"You’ve misunderstood, these three are my employees, Elise, please make some tea for Mr. Arthur." Sun Yan said as he sat down.
In front of outsiders, Elise was very poised and did not act out, as soon as Sun Yan finished speaking, she hurried to the kitchen to prepare tea for them.
"Alright, Mr. Arthur, now we can discuss cooperation matters, you are a guest from afar."
Sun Yan gestured.
Although Arthur was the fifth Speaker of the Evil God Council, holding a high rank and controlling vast resources and networks in North America.
Among the six Speakers, his position ranked fifth, a point of dissatisfaction for Arthur over the years.
The first, second, third, and fourth Speakers could crush him in strength, thus for a long time, Arthur felt burdened by four great mountains above him.
And now, with two of those mountains toppled thanks to Sun Yan’s actions, Arthur’s ambitions were rekindled.
If he could get Sun Yan’s assistance, he might be able to topple the remaining two mountains as well.
At that point, the Evil God Council would be his to control, and all of North America would become his playground.
"Here’s the deal, Mr. Jack, I’m simply asking for your assistance in killing the first and second Speaker, once successful, all the promises I made to you outside will come true."
Arthur made a grand gesture, speaking with grandiloquence: "After that, all of North America will be our territory, any Hollywood starlet, any company in America, money in Citibank, as much as you want, even the Bai Palace can be your residence."
"First, tell me about those two Speakers, including their powers. I need to understand before considering." Sun Yan said calmly.
"The first Speaker, whose family lineage is ancient, wields a power so formidable that even the third and fourth Speaker dare not provoke him, it’s rumored he possesses Demonic blood, seemingly connected to Hell,
The second Speaker is similarly formidable, reportedly his ancestors were linked with Demigod-level beasts, his descendants naturally possess great physical strength, no impact, not even from a truck, can kill them."
Arthur said solemnly: "I’ve attempted assassination on him before, never succeeded, couldn’t even touch the second Speaker’s clothing, the assassin was pulverized by him, a truly terrifying individual, I suspect he could twist a Demon’s head off its neck and use it as a chalice, very dangerous."
Sun Yan displayed a playful smile: "Sounds dangerous, Mr. Arthur, if you’re just pitching fantasy without sincerity, it’s not enough to make me act."
"Mr. Jack, whatever you need, just say it, as long as I can do it, I’ll meet your conditions." Arthur immediately promised seriously.
