I Am Unstoppable

Chapter 540 Ruthless

The moment Yareth breathed his last, numerous descendants in the living room burst into loud sobs, filling the air with an atmosphere of dismal, while the faces of his several uncles were solemn and tinged with complex emotions. At that instant, Jonathan, on the contrary, calmed down.

After taking a deep breath, he said to Bruce, “Bruce, please take care of Grandpa's funeral arrangements.”

Bruce nodded, saying, “However, Mr. Lawson, Old Mr. Harrington had instructed before, hoping for the funeral to be kept simple.” Jonathan nodded in response. “We will do everything according to Grandpa's wishes.”

“How can that be?” The second son of the Harrington family, Brendan, stood up. He was about forty- five years old, slightly overweight, and his face was full of shrewdness. He cut to the chase. “My father has worked hard for the Harrington family all his life. We must give him a grand funeral no matter what!”

Jonathan glanced at Brendan, clearly seeing a hint of provocation in the latter's eyes.

Jonathan couldn't help but feel irritated. Old Mr. Harrington had devoted his whole heart to this family, yet these people are starting to show their despicable nature right after his passing?

Jonathan understood that Brendan stepped forward to undermine his authority in front of everyone.

He wasn't acting out of filial piety at all!

Bruce was suddenly in a bit of a bind. Jonathan said in a deep voice, “Bruce, there's no need to pay

him any mind.”

“All right, Jonathan, you really are something! My father has barely passed, and you're already disregarding us elders,” Brendan immediately seized the opportunity to criticize Jonathan.

The eldest son of the family, Jeremiah uttered coldly, “Jonathan, my father just passed away. I didn't wish to talk much at this time, but you should not be so disrespectful.”

Jonathan took a deep breath, glancing at Jeremiah and Brendan. Then, he said, “Grandpa just passed away. Let's not argue in front of him. Right now, I just want to fulfill his last wishes and let him rest in peace. As for the other matters, I will give you a satisfactory answer after Grandpa's burial, Uncle Jeremiah and Uncle Brendan. I know what you all want. I believe we're no fools.”

“You...” Brendan was about to lose his temper.

After all, Jonathan spoke nonchalantly, but the sarcasm lacing his words was quite evident. Brendan was about to lose his temper.

Naturally, Jeremiah was enjoying the show.

However, at that moment, Jonathan's feet suddenly moved.

Crack!

The ground astonishingly cracked open to about five meters wide!

The entire ground shook as if a minor earthquake had occurred.

The ground cracked, with Jonathan's foot as the epicenter.

The sudden display of power instantly sent a wave of fear through everyone present!

Brendan found himself at a loss for words.

Jeremiah looked at Jonathan with a full sense of apprehension. He finally understood why Yareth valued Jonathan so much.

For the next two days, Jonathan was busy arranging the funeral for Yareth. Although Yareth had wished for a simple ceremony, it was important to Jonathan that the arrangement was sincere, despite its simplicity.

On the second day, Jonathan was busy greeting the relatives.

He mourned for Yareth. Although Yareth had many descendants, and Jonathan's presence wouldn't make a difference, but he still wanted to do as much as he could for Yareth.

On the second day, Aurora, Yeverie, Mabel, and Beatrix all arrived at Yaleview to meet up.

Only Walrion, who was still in Irushea, couldn't make it in time.

Upon learning about Jonathan's family situation, Aurora and the group immediately came over, including Torrence and Jeff.

They attended the funeral as guests.

After paying respects to Yareth at the mourning hall, they went to the parlor to rest.

In the afternoon, unexpected and uninvited visitors finally showed up at the mourning hall.

The newcomers were none other than the Langeton family, who had a deep-seated grudge against Jonathan and the Harrington family from before.

The venerable elder of the Langeton family was taken down by Jonathan with a single gunshot, as was Nelson, the most outstanding of the Langeton family's grandchildren. Besides, Jonathan also crippled one of the family's grandchildren, Frederick.

The Langeton family had been practicing martial arts for generations, but now, the younger generation had been ruined by Jonathan, resulting in a profound hatred between the two parties!

Therefore, upon hearing the news of Yareth's death, the head of the Langeton family, Xavier, stormed over with a few of his sons in tow.

That included the eldest son, Josiah, the second son, Sylvester, and two other younger sons. The party of five consisted of elites, especially Xavier/

After his family's elder was killed, he cultivated even more diligently. Now, he had become an expert in the final stage of the Celestial Soul level.

His physical form had reached perfection, and his combat force was absolutely terrifying and formidable!

When the Langeton family members entered, Jeremiah, Brendan, and their group of descendants were almost scared out of their wits. They had been living carefree lives under the protection of Yareth for many years. But at that moment, they felt as if their pillar of support had collapsed.

They were all people without any martial arts skills. Now, with Xavier and his group aggressively showing up at their doorstep, it was only natural for them to be terrified.

Jeremiah, Brendan, and the rest of their descendants all turned pale. Only Jonathan, dressed in black mourning clothes, appeared calm yet somber.

After Xavier and his group entered, they exuded an intense aura of hostility. Their murderous vibe made everyone present feel uneasy!

Xavier and his group scanned the surroundings, but they didn't spot a single expert. Needless to say, they couldn't discern Jonathan's cultivation level.

It was at that moment that Torrence and the others all sensed that something was amiss, and they all came out.

Seeing the situation, Torrence and the others immediately positioned themselves behind Jonathan, ready to follow his orders at any moment.

Despite their self-proclaimed exceptional skills, Xavier and his group failed to discern Jonathan and his party's cultivation levels.

Xavier couldn't believe that there could be so many experts around there. After all, those experts

weren't so commonly found.

“Brat, I bet you never thought you'd see this day, did you?” Xavier said coldly, looking at Jonathan.

Jonathan spoke calmly, “Mr. Langeton, if you're here to pay respect to my grandpa, you're most welcome. But if you're here to cause trouble, I advise you to leave immediately!”

“Brat!” Nelson, Sylvester's son, was killed by Jonathan. Upon seeing Jonathan, Sylvester's eyes turned crimson, and he strode forward, ready to strike Jonathan.

Xavier blocked Sylvester, then turned to Jonathan and said, “We'll settle our scores later!” He paused for a moment, then looked at Jeremiah and said calmly, “Mr. Jeremiah, I came here today with two purposes. First, to pay my respects to your father. Second, to discuss with you our project in Marsingfill.”

Jeremiah officially felt the pressure from Xavier. It was a fear brought about purely by martial power!

Taking a deep breath, Jeremiah tried his best to remain calm. Then, in a serious tone, he said, “Mr. Langeton, this is my father's mourning hall. I won't discuss business here!”

Xavier snorted, piercing directly into Jeremiah's chest. The latter's face turned pale instantly, and he felt a tightness in his chest, causing him to cough up a mouthful of fresh blood. Xavier said, “Jeremiah, the fact that I'm willing to do business with you is a sign of my respect for you. Now that your d*mned father is no longer around, it's pitiful that there's not a single decent member left in the Harrington family. In the future, if you know how to behave and keep a low profile, I might still be willing to let you get by. Otherwise—”

The newcomers were none other than the Langeton family, who had a deep-seated grudge against Jonathan and the Harrington family from before.

“What will you do, then?” At that moment, Jonathan coldly interrupted Xavier.

Given Jonathan's temperament, he would have taught Jeremiah and the others a lesson. However, they were at Yareth's mourning hall, and Jonathan knew Yareth would not want to see his descendants being humiliated, so he stepped forward.

“Hah, I almost forgot!” Xavier looked at Jonathan and said, “I forgot you also know some martial arts, brat. I suppose it's your modest martial arts skills that give you the confidence to speak to me in this insolent manner!”

Jonathan spoke calmly. “Xavier, I didn't want to stoop to your level today. However, since you dared to cause a scene in front of my grandpa's mourning hall, I'll let you in on something, then. When my grandpa was alive, the Langeton family was nothing more than a lowly being to the Harrington family. Even with my grandpa gone, you can't change anything. You're still just a lowly being!”

“You're courting death!” Xavier roared in fury. Suddenly, he lunged at Jonathan. His hand transformed into a fierce claw resembling a monster's talon, aiming directly at Jonathan's throat!

“How dare you!” Aurora suddenly shouted. Jonathan was the ruler, and she was his servant. How could she possibly allow anyone to attack Jonathan in her presence?

Instantly, Aurora shielded Jonathan.

Crack!

Aurora had already seized Xavier's wrist before anyone could clearly see what was happening. With just a twist, Xavier's wrist was broken.

With a piercing scream, Xavier staggered back several steps, his face as pale as a ghost.

At that very moment, Xavier's eyes were wide with disbelief, as if he had seen a ghost. He simply couldn't believe it! How could this be possible? Despite my high cultivation level, I've inexplicably had my hand broken by this young woman?

His sons standing behind him were also shocked and dumbstruck.

With a cold gaze, Jonathan swept his eyes over them, then said, “Aren't you leaving yet?”

Xavier and his group had deeply experienced the terror of Jonathan's party. They glanced fearfully at Jonathan's side, then without uttering a word, they turned and left!

That evening, Yareth was officially laid to rest.

After the funeral was over, Jeremiah received a message.

Xavier, the patriarch of the Langeton family, along with his four sons, were all brutally murdered in their house.

Upon receiving the news, Jeremiah's and Brendan's faces instantly turned deathly pale.

“It's Jonathan's doing!” The two exchanged glances, finally arriving at the same conclusion.

“Who would have thought that someone as refined-looking as him could be so ruthless!” exclaimed Brendan, still feeling a lingering fear.

Jeremiah remained silent.

Brendan couldn't help but say, “Jeremiah, Jonathan is so reckless. We've offended him quite a bit before. Do you think he will kill us too?”

Colors drained from Jeremiah's face, and his body involuntarily trembled as he said, “That shouldn't happen! After all, he would still take into account Dad's feelings. Moreover, Catherine is our niece.” He paused for a moment, then added, “At worst, we'll just obediently regard him as the head of the family in the future.”

Brendan said, “Jeremiah, let's do as you suggest. Let's go find him and take the initiative to submit to him.”

That was the first time Jeremiah had truly witnessed the brutality of bloodshed. He and Brendan had lived too comfortably under their father's protection in the past.

Therefore, at that moment, both of them were in a panic.

Even though the business world had often been described as brutal, that was a mere adjective.

What Jonathan was doing now had far exceeded mere adjectives.Content is property of NôvelDrama.Org.
