Chapter 513 Playing With Fire.
As soon as Robert stepped into the room, he was greeted by the sight of injured people lying all over the floor
After hearing Ashley’s words, he frowned slightly and lifted his gaze toward Raven
He had never seen George’s disciple before, but instinct told him that George’s disciple couldn’t possibly be this young After all, while George appeared to be around thirty years old, his true age was far beyond that
And Raven looked to be no more than eighteen or nineteen. Five years ago, she would’ve been only thirteen or fourteen Even in the upper realm he came from, a girl of that age couldn’t have accomplished anything significant
But Robert had already heard rumors about George’s disciple long before he started serving him
He heard things like taking on entire mercenary squads solo, infiltrating the Demon Swamp Forest for trials, and other impossible missions that no twelve or thirteen–year–old should be capable of
So, unaware that Raven’s condition and her apparent age might be misleading, Robert quickly concluded she couldn’t possibly be George’s disciple.
With that settled in his mind, Robert stepped past the crowd and walked up to Raven, his expression full of arrogance
He asked, “So you’re the one pretending to be Mr. Brown’s disciple?”
Raven lifted her gaze toward him and smiled mockingly. “Pretending? You just decided I’m a fake? Is this how you serve your master?”
Hearing that, Robert’s expression turned icy cold.
What he hated most was people dragging George’s name to humiliate him.
“You’re dead!” Without another word, Robert raised his palm and struck directly toward Raven’s chest.
The surrounding crowd collectively held their breath in tension.
At that moment, they all thought Raven was done for.
This person who stirred up a storm in Broson City was about to meet her end.
They thought Raven could only blame herself for daring to offend a figure from the upper realm.
However, just when everyone thought Raven would be sent flying and coughing up blood from Robert’s palm, she slipped away with agile precision.
Not only had she dodged Robert’s attack, but she had already countered, her own palm flying toward his face.
Robert was stunned. He hadn’t expected Raven to dodge him and retaliate.
Startled, he quickly used his movement technique to evade the incoming strike.
Unfortunately, he was just a second too slow.
Raven’s palm struck his shoulder. He let out a muffled grunt and staggered a few steps back.
Still, Robert quickly regained his balance and posture, immediately adjusting himself to hide the fact that he’d been hit
Thanks to his superb acting and the sheer speed of their exchange, no one around them had clearly seen what happened. Everyone simply assumed Raven had narrowly dodged his attack by chance.
Ashley shouted, “Mr. White, hurry and kill her!”
Ashley hadn’t seen Raven’s movement either. She thought Robert had gone easy on her, letting her escape. Afraid that Raven might run off, she quickly shouted again.
But as Ashley kept shouting, Robert’s expression darkened.
Raven’s speed was far too fast, even faster than his.
If he hadn’t dodged just in time earlier, that single strike might’ve seriously injured him.
Of course, for the sake of his pride, he wasn’t about to let anyone in the room know what had really happened.
Forcing himself to maintain a high–and–mighty demeanor, he glared at Raven and warned, “Your little tricks are just party
tricks. You know who I am. Why don’t you surre
mady”
