Fade came to a halt. He turned to look at Hannes and said coldly, "Why, do you want to butt in?"
Hannes had a serious look on his face as he spoke to Fade, "Mr. Chen, Mr. Simeon is a distinguished guest whom we specially invited to the dinner. We hope that nothing will happen to him here. About this, I hope that you can understand."
"What if I don't understand?" Fade's tone of voice sank as he asked.
Hannes' expression froze before he spoke in a low voice, "If that's the case, we of the Hoyte family can only offend you."
As soon as he spoke, Harson, who was beside Hannes, spoke excitedly, "Uncle Edgrell, sorry to trouble you."
Then, a burly man in his forties stepped out with a gloomy expression, and his aura instantly enveloped the whole room.
Simeon and Liah let out a sigh of relief when they saw him.
Edgrell was the most powerful bodyguard of the Hoyte family. He was Hannes' personal bodyguard and was an expert in the early stage of the Heaven Level. He had entered the level of a Martial Arts Master and could definitely be considered an expert.
With his appearance, everyone present felt confident again.
Harson was even more confident and he glared at Fade with the flames of revenge in his eyes as he spoke, "Chinese kid, surrender now and I'll consider asking Uncle Edgrell to spare your life. Or else, you'll die if Uncle Edgrell makes his move."
"Is that so?" Fade was indifferent and made a taunting movement with his finger and spoke calmly, "Come on!"
After all, Edgrell was a Heaven Level expert and was a respected entity even in a powerful family such as the Hoyte family. In the end, he was looked down on by a Chinese boy here. Instantly, his rage burned and he charged at Fade with a shout and attacked.
Seeing that Edgrell had made his move, everyone except for Fade and Serena had smug looks on their faces. It was as if they had already seen Fade get defeated by Edgrell and was kneeling and begging for mercy.
However, just as Edgrell's attack was about to touch Fade, the latter made his move.
Fade stretched out his right hand without any flashy movements and with a wave of his hand, he slapped Edgrell's face.
It was a simple move but Edgrell couldn't dodge it. With a loud sound, his face was dealt a blow. A red palm print appeared on his face and he stumbled back, almost falling to the ground.
"How dare you..." Edgrell was furious and he glared fiercely at Fade while his positive energy surged. He had obviously flown into a rage and was coming at Fade for real.
However, Fade's expression was still cold. He lifted his hand and slapped Edgrell again.
Slap! This time, Edgrell was hit in the head. The huge force slammed him to the ground and for a time, he was dazed and couldn't stand up.
"Y-You..." Edgrell shook his dizzy head and gritted his teeth at Fade as he tried to get up.
However, Fade stepped forward and kicked at him and he fell unconscious.
Then, Fade turned around to look at Hannes, Garell, Simeon and the others with a cold expression on his face. He spoke calmly, "What more do you have? Bring it on!"
These people didn't expect this result and for a time, they were stunned on the spot, not knowing what to make of it.
Simeon came back to his senses only when he saw Fade walking towards him. He was terrified and quickly spoke, "You, what do you want?"
Fade said coldly, "I told you, I want Quin's whereabouts!"
"About this, I..." Simeon showed hesitation on his face, unwilling to speak.
Fade's face turned cold again and he was about to strike out.
