The Young Master in the Shadows

Chapter 178: Damn you Alex!

Archie really wanted to cry, but he had no tears. He always knew his luck was sh*tty. But why the hell did he have to partner with this slutty girl, Margret? And on top of that, why did he have to be trapped with her in this place while being surrounded by snakes in all shapes and colors?

He thought she was a normal slut when he first met her. The type that ran after big money. He encountered those a lot as a young master. And knew perfectly well how to control them.

He was mistaken, she was not a normal slut but an evolved one, the type who found a big backer to cling to and evolve from a carp to a dragon.

The backer this one found was one of the biggest, and she was not afraid to show it off!

“What are you thinking about? You sissy, focus on the snakes. I will lure half of them as before. Kill the ones who stay here before I circle around and return with the others.” She yelled at him as she ran away while wiggling her butt. And indeed about half of the snakes followed her, extending their split tongues in her direction and wiggling their body’s in a very strange way that he didn’t understand. Or maybe he just didn’t want to.

The other snakes were distracted as they gave her a hateful look that allowed him to attack them easily with his spear and then practice his air blade on the last few. His class was a wizard, a wind wizard.

…

The two black vans with a strange curved fan symbol were moving at an accelerated speed on the highway.

“Uncle! We are already far away! Why did you have to kidnap this guy… I told you, it is the other one who took my room... We should return and...” Su Chen complained.

“Idiot! This one is Alex Donner! I have seen him when I was visiting his sect with your father before.” His uncle, Su Ming, Rebuked as he touched his swollen eye and Looked at Alex who was tied at the back of the van. This guy surprised him, he was a tough fighter and had a high level that is very strange for her age. Thankfully he was inexperienced and fell for his tricks allowing Su Ming to overpower him and seal his powers.

“Who is Alex Donner? Isn’t he just a sissy bodyguard? Why should I care…. I asked you to come to take revenge for me… That guy stole my room, and my girls then lied in my face!” Su Chen said angrily.

“Idiot! You should stop spending your life in brothels and start to learn some useful things.” Su Ming scolded. “This one is worth a lot. Half of the worldʼs powers want him…”

He never expected that today would be his lucky day. He was accompanying his idiot nephew to a VIP party in the golden hotel when Su Chen noticed Alex who was shopping for some clothes in a nearby shop.

Su Chen Got very angry, he quickly told his uncle the story about how they took his room and then lied in his face about him… If it were not for a waiter who tipped them off, they would have waited all day. He wanted revenge.

Su Ming didn’t really care, but when he carefully inspected Alex, he realized his true Identity.

“What does that have to do with us? Arenʼt we banished from the sect?” Su Chan asked.

“If we hand him to the sect, Your father might approve our return ” Su Ming explained.

“What? Really?” Su Chen asked… He was kicked out of his sect at a young age due to him raping a female disciple and getting discovered… The scandal was so big, that his father had to kick him out to save his life. He didn’t even have the chance to attempt the sects ceremony!

It just so happened that elder Ming also assaulted one of his disciples on the same day, so they were banished together!

“Yes… You would not have to be ashamed all the time… You can return and maybe get the future patriarch’s seat from your stepbrotherʼs hands.” Su Ming said. “And I don’t have to waste my time looking after you!.” He thought in his heart. His banishment was not real. He was just sent to look after the patriarchʼs only son.

“What? Really? Is he that Important? We should call them quickly!” Su Chen said in excitement.

Su Ming nodded… He was so preoccupied with his gains that he forgot the most important thing… They have phones nowadays.

Taking his phone and calling his sect, Su ming discovered that he can’t make a call, all he heard was random noise.

“This thing is useless…” Su Ming said as Su Chen tried his own phone… Nothing was working, not even his croniesʼ phones worked.

“I should sue the phone company…” Su Chen complained. “Those bastards are charging me a lot for their flimsy services.”

“No…Something is wrong…” Su Ming, who was more experienced, said when he was interrupted.

“Young master… Elder…. Something weird is happening with this guy… He is turning into a woman!” One of the men on the back suddenly said, making Su Chen and Su Ming look back at the tied Alex in surprise.

Indeed, it was very slow, but his face and jawline were getting softer… As if he was slowly turning into a girl… A hot girl. She was glaring at them with tears in her eyes.

“Did you take anything from him?” Su Ming jabbed his nephew who began to drool, then asked him.

“Ah… Some pretty rings… Are they magical?” Su Chen asked as he began to fumble in his pockets.

“If I am not mistaken this should be…..”

BANG…………..

The van in the front exploded, causing theirs to begin to derail as the driver lost control. Thankfully he was a professional, and managed to stabilize the van just as a bullet passed through his head and hit Su Chen in the shoulder…. There was a scream when the vehicle that lost its balance hit the side of the road and it began to roll.

Su Ming, who was shocked by the events, wanted to help his injured nephew but stopped. Carrying someone out of the car with a sniper round was a death sentence… And if this bastard died, wouldn’t he be free to join the sect again? Wouldnʼt the future Patriarch reward him for getting rid of his only rival?

Just as the flipped van slid to a stop at the road, Su Ming, ignoring Su Chen’s pleas, kicked the door that was now over their heads, then used it as a cover as he dashed out intending to escape.

The assailantʼs target was either Alex or his nephew. And he was not ready to sacrifice his life for any of them… Whoever did this, would not leave any witnesses. That’s how families worked.

Using the smoke caused by the explosion of the other car as a cover, he quickly ran to the side of the road then ducked and began to crawl on his stomach when he was decapitated by a swift sword strike by a handsome young master.

Victor shook his sword, cleaning it from blood, then looked at the flipped car where two men were crawling out with bloodied clothes. He shot them both in the forehead with his gun. Then turned back to the middle-aged headless man on the ground and began to search him for valuables. He didn’t have a storage ring, but a storage pouch of inferior quality. Inside it, there were some GEMs, an Iron fan, and a few drugs. Nothing interesting.

Victor sighed as he stored the corpse in his ring then looked at the flipped van and began heading in its direction.

When reaching it, he jumped to the opening created by the broken door and looked down at the situation inside.

Alex seemed to have finished putting a ring on her finger. She had just taken it back from Su Chen who was strangled to death… She used the rope tying her hands to do that. Not bad.

“Are you ok?” Victor asked as he extended his hand to her.

She nodded as quickly took it and climbed up. That bastard was really tough. At least 20 levels above her. She had a few broken ribs but nothing major, as he didn’t want her to let her die.

“Th… Thank you, young master…” Alex said after Victor cut her ropes and removed the talisman restricting her power.

She quickly adjusted her clothes, hiding her curvy body. The ring’s effect would take some time to fully change her gender. Thankfully Victor was lazy enough to give her some time to retrieve her stuff from that bastardʼs pocket.

Alex smiled softly as she looked at Victor. She was really scared, but she kept believing that he would come and save her… He really did.

Looking at her smiling face, Victor froze. Damn, she is pretty…

“Young master… Is there anything wrong?” Alex asked after a few seconds when she noticed the odd silence and felt his fiery gaze on her. He never looked at her like this before... It made her feel wired.

“Absolutely beautiful…..” He said after a second before he spat on the ground in anger… “Damn it...” He cursed loudly. For a second there, he has just been charmed by her beauty. His injured soul was causing him trouble again. scared.

“Who? Me? Ahhhh…… Really?” Alex blushed as she heard his words.

“Damn you, Alex… You are going to turn me gay someday.” Victor cursed loudly again as he threw a grenade in the flipped van and then started heading in a certain direction while hiding his face.

Alex smiled cheekily as she popped a healing pill in her mouth…

“I might really just do that…” She said as she chuckled and ran after him, ignoring the explosion behind her.
