Chapter 1124 Questions

“You!”

Confronted with Emmanuel’s murderous gaze, Felicia panicked. She hadn’t anticipated that her special

ability would have no effect on this man at all!

Who was he?

No wonder even Magnus had to team up with her to deal with him!

Swoosh!

Emmanuel disregarded Felicia’s expression and whatever she wanted to say. He took the initiative to

make a move and subdued her first.

During his past missions, he had encountered many cunning female agents. These women would

exploit their vulnerability to gain men’s sympathy and then launch a counterattack.

Emmanuel would never make such a mistake, but he hadn’t expected Felicia’s martial arts skills to be

quite formidable. He made an error with his move, Dragonweave Saga.

Felicia flipped in mid-air, her graceful legs drawing an elegant arc, using the rotation to break free from

Emmanuel’s control.

After landing, the cloth strip on her sleeve swiftly wrapped around Emmanuel like a venomous snake,

reversing the situation and restricting his movements.

Emmanuel had never underestimated his opponents, but he realized that he had underestimated her.

This was the Saintess of the Holy Fire, the one who had almost killed Snake Master.

After restricting Emmanuel’s movements, Felicia reached out to grab his spine.

This was a technique commonly used by assassins. Once they snapped a man’s spine, he would die

quickly.

In a critical moment, Emmanuel unleashed his terrifying potential. Using the metal button on his

clothes, he forcibly cut off Felicia’s cloth strip, narrowly escaping before she could break his bones.

In the blink of an eye, the two exchanged blows, both attacking and defending, each harboring a hint of

fear towards the other’s strength.

However, in a close encounter, the brave prevailed.

Felicia failed to trap Emmanuel in her illusion with her ultimate ability, so she was already feeling

hesitant and didn’t have a strong desire to engage in a fierce fight.

Or perhaps she hadn’t truly made up her mind to kill Emmanuel. She hesitated for a second.

On the other hand, Emmanuel was worried that there might be ambushes or reinforcements, so he had

to defeat his opponent within a short period of time, or else there would be endless trouble.

In this battle, Emmanuel launched three consecutive attacks, using all his strength.

Meanwhile, Felicia desperately defended herself but eventually showed some flaws.

Whoosh!

Emmanuel finally used a powerful grip technique to restrain her hands behind her back, holding her in

front of him.

Felicia panicked for a second but quickly regained her composure and even smiled seductively, saying,

“Mr. Lowe, what do you intend to do with me? Aren’t you afraid your wife will get jealous of how you

treat me?”

With that, she deliberately pressed her delicate body against Emmanuel.

She had a slender figure, but her bosom was quite impressive. It was a tender place that could

captivate any man.

Little did she know, Emmanuel was neither shy nor interested, and his face remained indifferent.

He had dealt with women who used this tactic too many times before.

“Miss Felicia, I have a few questions for you.”

Now that he had captured her, Emmanuel was no longer in a hurry and decided to clarify some things.

“Just ask. You’ve already captured me. How could I not answer you?” Felicia’s expression was a mix of

annoyance and cuteness, enough to melt the hearts of all men.

Unfortunately, she was facing a man of steel, who remained composed and asked calmly, “You’re the

Saintess, right? The one who almost killed Snake Master before?”

“So what if I am? So what if I’m not? Do you want to kill me? Right here?” Felicia retorted.

This was “The Paradise,” a place bustling with people. She was a highly sought-after courtesan, and

tonight, she had only made an appointment with him. If she died in this room, Emmanuel would not

escape legal consequences.

Emmanuel was well aware of this.

This was a society governed by laws and not a fantasy world. The people he had killed before were

mostly in self-defense, and with the help of Mackenzie and Sage, he had managed to get away with it

easily.

However, killing Felicia now would definitely cause trouble.

If she truly were a member of the Holy Fire organization, he would be at odds with the entire

organization.

Without a deep-seated grudge, Emmanuel clearly didn’t have the determination for that.

“I’ll take your answer as an implied confirmation.” He didn’t dwell on this question and continued, “Were

you lying in wait for Nathan to fall into your trap here? What is your motive?”
