Chapter 1027Chapter 1027 A Big Gift
Seeing the vial of red blood, Zion turned to the outside and shouted, “Prepare the car, we’re going to
the Deragon residence.”
novelbinMeanwhile, Edgar was raging back in the Deragon residence.
“I’ll kill Jared! I’m going to kill him!” Edgar yelled furiously.
How dare he humiliate me in front of so many reporters? I have never suffered such an insult!
Ryker’s expression was hostile. “What’s the point of you throwing a tantrum now? Do you have any
confidence winning Jared in a battle with your current abilities?”
“I…”
Edgar was hesitant.
After all, Jared was the one who eradicated the Thunderstorm Sect and the Shalvis family. Edgar
wasn’t sure if he could defeat him.
“Useless piece of trash!” Ryker cussed at Edgar’s silence.
Edgar had always been Ryker’s pride and joy. After all, for a young man like Edgar to reach the
Seventh Level Martial Arts Grandmaster was a feat nothing less than a genius.
However, Jared had outperformed Edgar in every regard, and that was like a stab at Ryker’s pride.
Ryker knew Jared was his nephew and had the blood of the Deragons flowing within him, but he
couldn’t accept Jared being better than his son.At that moment, Zion approached the two.
“President Zeigler.”
Ryker was baffled by Zion’s appearance.
“Mr. Ryker, I’ve prepared a big gift for Mr. Edgar. I remembered telling you about it,” Zion reminded with
a smile.
“What gift, President Zeigler?” Edgar asked urgently.
Zion reached for the blood-filled vial from his pocket and showed it to Edgar. “This is the gift.”
Edgar was stunned as he reached for the vial. After studying it briefly, he asked curiously, “President
Zeigler, what’s in the vial?”
Edgar couldn’t discern it at a glimpse, but Ryker could.
“President Zeigler, is that human blood?” Ryker asked with puzzlement.
“You’re right. There’s human blood inside.”
Zion nodded with agreement.
Hearing it was human blood, Edgar immediately set the vial on the desk and turned to Zion with a
perplexed look. “President Zeigler, why did you give me this?”
“I want you to consume it, of course. If you notice you’re losing against Jared in the arena, you can take
this, and your abilities will be amplified rapidly, without any side effects,” Zion explained.Learning that he was to drink human blood, Edgar fervently shook his head in shock. “President
Zeigler, I can’t do that. I’m not a practitioner of Demonic Cultivation, so how can I drink human blood
under the public’s scrutiny? How will they regard me and the Deragon family after that?”
Ryker agreed with Edgar’s refusal. “President Zeigler, I have heard that consuming human blood can
elevate the consumer’s abilities, but Edgar doesn’t practice Demonic Cultivation, so it’s pointless even
if he does take it.”
“This is not your average human blood. It belonged to a fiery constituent. I’m just having you take it
when you know you’re losing to Jared. If you don’t reveal it, no one will know the vial contains human
blood. Am I right?”
Zion’s expression turned stony. “Since you don’t appreciate my sincerity, I’ll take it back then.”
Right when Zion was about to reach for the vial, Ryker beat him to it and snatched the vial. “How can
we not appreciate President Zeigler’s good intention?”
A smile returned to Zion’s face at Ryker’s words. “When will be the challenge date?”
“How about three days later?” Ryker asked for Zion’s opinion.
“Perfect. Be sure to teach Jared a hard lesson,” Zion answered with a nod.
“No, three days is too short.”
Suddenly, an objection yelled from outside, and soon, an elderly man dressed in a robe hurried inside.
