Young Lord of The Dragon Sect
Chapter 396 Bloodshed

Master Stevens pretended to look around in the building shed and went back to the entrance together with Victoria in a serious expression. Maximilian finally felt released after seeing that Victoria was fine.

Andrew and the others hurriedly surrounded Master Stevens and began to ask his opinion towards the geomantic omen of this place.

"Master Stevens, what do you think of the geomantic omen? Do we need to make any adjustment?"

Master Stevens shook his head gloomily and sighed, "This is not a good place to build a factory. If we take construction here, someone will die every year."

Andrew and Darian showed a terrible look. It was important for a factory to guard the workers' safety. They have to spend a lot of time handling the compensation problem if the workers die.

"How, how could it be? Why does this place have a sinister omen? Please help us to solve this problem." Darian was pretty anxious.

Mr Morgan and the others all frowned. It was troublesome if somebody died during construction. Mr Morgan was planning to refuse this job if Master Stevens didn't want to handle this problem. Maximilian held Victoria's hand and walked out of the crowd. He whispered, "Is this liar lying to you?"

"Liar? How can you assert that he is a liar?" Victoria looked at Maximilian in surprise. She didn't understand why Maximilian said Master Stevens was lying to them.

There were so many people who were surrounding Master Stevens with respect. If he was a fraud, then many of them would be cheated.

Maximilian said casually, "This feudal superstition is actually a way of cheating. If Master Stevens is a master with strength, Andrew cannot afford the fee to invite him here. Let's make it simple. Andrew can only replace liars who want to cheat his money."

Victoria didn't know how to reply him. She thought over Master Stevens' words and found there was nothing suspicious. The only thing made her difficult to believe was that he said he knew the way to slow down aging.

Most people believed there existed a recipe to keep healthy, even Victoria was convinced by him. She simply thought Master Stevens wanted to sell his techniques about how to keep healthy. It was not lying, but a marketing skill to make money.

"Nothing. I don't think he is a fraud. He told me that there was a way to get rid of geomantic omen and he only needed me to help him. Well, I'm actually a bit confused. I don't know what he wants me to do."

Maximilian was also confused. Maybe his judgement was wrong? However, what Master Stevens behaved liked nothing but a fraud. He was simply good at pretending.

Seeing Maximilian frowning, Victoria reached out her hand to rub his eyebrow, "Don't worry. What he wants is just money. We can replace whether he is lying or not when he asks money from us." "Well, fine, we will see." Maximilian answered in a deep voice.

Master Stevens pretended to be a master and said in a timid manner, "This place really has a strong geomantic omen to handle. Although I can manage to deal with this properly, it will cost me a great deal of strength. So I am wondering whether I should help you or not."

Andrew and Darian looked at each other. They both figured out that Master Stevens was trying to ask for more money. They became hesitated and didn't know how much money they should pay.

"Master Stevens, we don't know how much it will burn your energy. Just tell us the exact number we should pay for you." Andrew had already made up his mind to pay this sum of money as long as it was not too expensive. The construction of the factory could not be delayed. If they had to choose another place, it would cost not only time, but also money, which was not economical.

Master Stevens reached out his right hand to calculate and finally told them his fee, "Twenty million dollars."

Andrew took a deep breath. It was really a great deal of money, which was just around the highest fee he could accept. However, he couldn't make up his mind. Although he truly believed in Master Stevens' words, he still had fluke mind when nothing happened. Andrew was trying to replace excuses to think over about this thing.

Master Stevens had seen lots of examples as similar as his. He smiled faintly and continued, "Never mind, I can give you three days."

"Thank you so much. Then let's send you back to the hotel. We have arranged a feast for you."

Master Stevens raised his head and said, "I'll just go back with my apprentices. You can discuss about this later. Well, where is that brother who said I was a fraud?"

All people turned to look at Maximilian and showed a gloating look. They thought Master Stevens was going to replace him trouble.

Maximilian looked at Master Stevens into his eyes, "I don't know what you want to ask?"

"Nothing. I have never seen someone who says I am a fraud. I just want to tell you that it is guilty to misunderstand the masters and you may get punished by god. Please take care from now on." "Are you threatening me?" Maximilian said with a smile.

"Are you fucking searching for death? How dare you say this to our master?"

"Master, I think we should give him a lesson. Please give us the chance to fight with him." Mint and the others began to argue, as they all held their fists, ready to fight with Maximilian.

Master Stevens looked at Maximilian and said when shaking his head, "Young people are just bold. However, something bad is going to happen to you. I wish you can take care of yourself."

After saying this, Master Stevens got on the car together with his apprentices, while Andrew and the others were staring at Maximilian madly.

"You're such a loser. What can you do except looking for trouble? He is Master Stevens! Victoria, let your husband repent his sin and ask him to apologize to Master Stevens during the dinner!" Andrew said coldly.

"Believe it or not, he is really a fraud. You will regret after paying him twenty million dollars." Maximilian replied in a blunt way.

Victoria held his arm and whispered, "Stop it."

"Uncle, I will bring him back. Don't believe in what he said." After saying this, Victoria held him and left.

Darian rubbed his forehead and said, "Brother, what does Master Stevens mean? He must be unsatisfied with what Maximilian said."

"What will you think if someone calls you a fraud? What a jerk Maximilian is! We must replace a way to please Master Stevens!"☐☐☐
