Chapter 648 What Are You Looking At
“I know. I was the one who told them the location of the inn.”
Arturo nodded.
“All right, then. Tell Raul to bring men to scare those three. It’s best if he manages to scare them off,”
Eduardo instructed.
“Why? Didn’t Uncle Zyaire bring those people here?” Arturo asked, baffled.
“I don’t know if he’s been bewitched or what. I can’t believe he brought outsiders to steal business from
us. They’re here for the decamillennium ginseng. If he gives it to them, he’ll be giving him tens of billions.
How can he possibly do that? Have Raul get rid of those three. Once we earn money with it, I’ll buy you
a Porsche,” Eduardo whispered to Arturo.
At the mention of Porsche, Arturo nodded vigorously. “Don’t worry, Dad. I’ll definitely do the job well.”

Raul was a well-known hoodlum in the area, and he had over a hundred underlings. Most of the time, he
earned by getting protection fees. Ever since the Rider family had begun their pharmaceutical business,
Raul had extorted protection fees from them as well. However, as the Rider family became more and
more well-off, they simply decided to give hoodlums like Raul money to protect their shops.
Soon, the Rider family became close to Raul, and Raul became the Riders’ private bodyguard. That way,
no one would dare to cross the Rider family. However, there was one exception—the Sabine family.
The Sabines had soared to great heights earlier, and their business was in the lumber industry. As
logging was laborious and dangerous work, not even Raul dared to cross the Sabine family. Just the
woodcutters who worked for the Sabine family alone were more than enough to deal with the hoodlums.
After taking Tommy and Phoenix around, Jared returned to the inn. The county seat was a small place,
and they soon finished the trip around the place.
However, just as Jared and the others reached the inn entrance, they were stopped by a group of
ferocious-looking people with batons in their hands.
Scanning the crowd, Jared realized they were all ordinary people. Not even a single martial artist was
among them. It was then he realized they were merely hoodlums.
Not wanting to waste his time on them, Jared took a step back as Tommy took a step forward to stand
right in front of the crowd.
Having been the underground king for so many years, Tommy had developed a menacing way of
carrying himself. Once he stepped forward, and the moment the hoodlums saw him, they instinctively
took a step back.
Right then, a bald man with a large build in the crowd bellowed at Tommy, “What are you looking at?”
That man was Raul. When he saw that his subordinates were so frightened by Tommy to the point they
were retreating, he was overwhelmed by embarrassment. That was why he had stepped forward.

“Don’t you know that this is my territory? Leave Ironwick River right away! You’d better not appear in my
line of sight ever again, or else I’ll break your legs!” Raul spat out.
“F*ck, who gave you the courage to play the ruler in front of the king? You were babies when I entered
society!”
There was no way Tommy was going to take that silently. After cursing at them, he readied himself for a
fight.
Right then, Jared abruptly spotted someone familiar—Zyaire’s nephew, Arturo. Arturo was hiding behind
a tree, sneakily watching the scene unfold.
Although it was dark, and Arturo was not near them, Jared spotted Arturo right away. Ever since Jared
entered the Transcendence Phase, his eyesight had become better than an average person’s.
Upon seeing Arturo, Jared realized what was going on. He then stopped Tommy and said to Raul,
“Mister, we just came to this place, and I don’t think we’ve done anything to cross you. Why do you want
us to leave?”
