Chapter 735
As soon as Blaze introduced himself, Jonathan tensed up, and spiritual energy surged out of his body, covering the entire No. 2
Villa.
Then, behind him, walls of spirit shields materialized and swiftly enveloped Sophia.
The bronze handbell was in Jonathan's grasp with a quick hand motion while his other hand had already summoned Heaven
Sword.
No matter what, he had to be extremely cautious since the man in front of him was Blaze, who was ranked first on Heaven List.
Being a mortal, Sophia could not sense the spirit shield surrounding her. Even so, she understood from Jonathan's reaction that
the other party had no good intentions, and her face instantly darkened.
“Jonathan, who on earth is he?”
“An assassin,” Jonathan replied flatly.
“Don't worry, Aunt Sophia. As long as I'm here, he can't hurt you.”
He aimed his Heaven Sword squarely at Blaze's face.
“Yasmin said that you wished to meet me, but I never thought that you'd make it here so quickly. Impressive.”
Blaze flashed Jonathan a smile.
“Mr. Goldstein, this place is too sparse compared to the president of Anglandur's residence, so it was a walk in the park for me.”
Despite having a typical Adrunian appearance, Blaze spoke Chanaean astonishingly well—one might even describe it as
exceptionally fluent.

He gave Sophia a slight bow before continuing with a smile, “Ms. Goldstein, I came here to discuss something with your nephew.
Sorry for disturbing your rest.”
“It's fine.” Sophia nodded while suppressing her panic. “If that's the case, please talk outside with Jonathan, Mr. Blaze. I'm tired.”
With that, she pulled up the quilt and slowly closed her eyes without giving them another glance.
Blaze's eyes flashed with admiration at her actions.
He understood that she did so not out of lack of fear but rather to let them take their conflict outside and keep her from becoming
Jonathan's burden.
“A wise woman is always beautiful,” he praised with a smile. “Let's go out as Ms. Goldstein wishes.”
As he spoke, he leaped up and vanished from the room in an instant.
That was quick!
Jonathan looked at the figure in the flower bed outside and followed suit, jumping out from the window on the second floor.
However, before his feet could touch the ground, Blaze turned around without warning and swung his arm at him.
The next second, a blinding flash of light appeared out of nowhere and headed straight for Jonathan's face.
“Break!”
Jonathan swung his Heaven Sword ferociously to meet the attack.
“Break!”
Jonathan swung his Heaven Sword ferociously to meet the attack.

The glint instantly dispersed into minuscule light specks and vanished in midair.
He had a grim expression on his face as he landed and felt the strength from his arm.
This person can unleash glints of light, which are as powerful as a full blow from a Grandmaster, at will. His strength is not
inferior to mine!
“You sure live up to your reputation as the first on Heaven List,” Jonathan remarked with a frown.
At the same time, several auras were rapidly approaching from his surroundings.
“What's going on, Mr. Goldstein?”
With a scalpel in hand, Jason landed facing Blaze, followed by Lauryn and Zachary.
Jonathan shook his head slightly at the three, signaling them not to move.
If I could take out every cultivator from Team Oracle at Terrandya in Doveston in front of Zebedee, Blaze could do the same right
now. There's no point for God Realm cultivators to make any move unless there are too many Grandmaster Realm cultivators to
ignore it.
“Blaze, the fact that you didn't hurt my family shows that you have no ill intentions. Let's have a chat.”
Jason, Lauryn, and Zachary were taken aback by Jonathan's words.
Having just heard the name Blaze and that he was the first-ranked assassin on Dark Web that had never missed his mark,
Zachary and the others knew they were about to confront a formidable enemy.
Blaze turned to give the three a slight nod, but his gaze drifted to No. 1 Villa.
Any cultivator above the Grandmaster Realm who concentrated hard would be able to see what was happening there plainly

because the two villas were less than a hundred meters apart.
At that moment, a girl with short hair pulled back into a bun was sitting cross-legged on the roof of No. 1 Villa with a massive
sniper rifle in her arms.
She aimed it in their direction, but as one would expect, its target was Blaze.
“Mr. Goldstein, the one over there is Yasmin, who defected from Xiara, right?”
“I wouldn't consider it defection,” Jonathan stated impassively. “At best, she's just switching sides.”
“All right. Let's not dwell on that.” Blaze walked to the stone table in the garden and sat down. “I'm here this time to discuss a
collaboration, Mr. Goldstein.”
A collaboration? Bullsh*t!
Jonathan could see the murderous glint in the other man's eyes.
From the moment he established Asura's Office, Dark Web had been hunting him for more than two years.
Even while Jonathan was currently standing there completely unharmed, those assassins had come dangerously close to killing
him numerous times, especially this time with Blaze going directly to No. 2 Villa and conversing happily with Sophia.
Clearly, he was telling Jonathan that he could kill the people around him at any time, whenever he liked.
This is clearly a threat!
Jonathan had always been the one to threaten all the respectable families, so the fact that someone else was employing the
same tactic against him made him feel incredibly oppressed.
However, with the current situation, he had no choice but to compromise.

“Go ahead. What kind of collaboration do you wish to discuss with me?”
Jonathan put away his Heaven Sword and sat down opposite Blaze.
The latter smiled at him. “I want you to join Apocalypse and change the world with me!”
Blaze's words left Jonathan and the others stupefied, especially Jason, whose expressions of exasperation and frustration were
most apparent.
They had recently heard far too many such ridiculous proclamations.
The goal of the more than 1.6 million armed forces under the command of the entire Asura's Office was merely to destroy the
eight respectable families.
However, within the last few days, the Salladay family unexpectedly joined forces with Wilbur to alter the situation in Chanaea.
Then, the Blackwood family suddenly became interested in fully assimilating the cultivators into the mortal world.
Now, another ludicrous assassin emerged, clamoring to change the world.
“You guys carry on with your conversation. I still have experiments that need my attention.”
Given that he could not aid in a fight and that the topic of conversation was going nowhere, Jason decided to turn around and
leave.
Zachary, on the other hand, seemed to want to blast Blaze into oblivion as he mobilized heavily armed forces from his
communication device to surround them.
As for Lauryn, she put away her sword and turned around without any hesitation.
Even Jonathan found their reactions a little amusing.

“Please don't mind them. We've heard too many proclamations to change the world over the past few days,” he said while
resisting the urge to break into a smile. “I've been a little busy recently. Let's do this, then. Please explain briefly how you wish to
change the world!”
