Chapter 665: 213. Deceive mode

Could Noland Lee’s actions tonight bring trouble upon him?

For instance, hostility from the Pangula Family, hatred from Lord Fagen, and enmity from the Dread Sail Pirate Nation.

Yes.

But Noland Lee believed that as long as his strength improved quickly enough, trouble wouldn’t be able to catch up to him.

As for whether the onlookers gave him positive or negative evaluations, he didn’t even plan to listen. Because he deeply knew that in this world, one’s reputation depended on his overall strength.

When Noland becomes powerful enough in the future, all the events that happened today would naturally become widely circulated legendary stories. There’s no need to listen or correct others’ evaluations of him before becoming strong.

Of course, all this was based on the premise of obeying laws and basic moral principles.

If one had great strength but committed heinous acts, no matter how much people feared and revered him, they wouldn’t give him a positive evaluation.

As for how to remain unharmed in a series of retaliatory events in the present where his strength was insufficient, Noland knew that certain schemes and means were needed.

Noland slightly squinted his eyes, looking at Selena on the terrace, and quietly began the next phase of his plan.

He used “Death Flight” and landed on the balcony where Selena was.

He took the spoils of war left by the Tide Spy after his death from the Magic Pouch and handed them over to Selena along with the Duel Application in his hand. At the same time, he calmly stated:

“I’m honored to have fulfilled the mission, Miss Selena Williams. Following your instructions and the arrest warrant, I have successfully exposed the spy planted by the Dread Sail Pirate Nation next to the Pangula Family’s fifth in line to succeed. With your intelligence as a guide, I conducted intensive investigations, and have identified the housekeeper who is a Tide Spy and the family advisor who secretly conspired with him. I had intended to interrogate those family advisors during the Life and Death Duel, but since they conceded, I will transfer the right to interrogate them to you and the Deep Sea Branch.”

While Noland was saying this, Lord Fagen was in a daze on the nextdoor terrace.

Fagen turned his head stiffly, moving his lips and raising his trembling fingers towards Selena while his eyes filled with disbelief. He even slipped on the spot and almost fell to the ground.

The male servant standing by his side helped Fagen to lean on the railing of the terrace.

“You… you used my love for you…” Fagen was pale and tearful, just like a person betrayed by love.

“Don’t delude yourself, Fagen.” Noland took a few steps, walked around Selena, and stood between the two, blocking Fagen’s view.

He raised his voice to make sure the remaining visitors could hear:

“Miss Selena Williams is the Deputy Dean of the Deep-sea Branch, a Nine Circles Deep Sea Wizard, and pursued by countless people from the Core Circle of the Suman Archipelago to Snow Mountain. You are nothing but a family heir being manipulated by the Tide Spy, not even within the top three successors. There’s no qualification to win Miss Selena’s love. If it weren’t for investigating your dark dealings with the Dread Sail Pirates, Miss Selena wouldn’t have personally risked obtaining firsthand information.”

Noland looked back at Selena behind him.
