Tranxending Vision - Chapter 856

Chapter 856: 856

Giovanna took less than an hour to reach the Knight Hospitaller . Following that, Walton made an appearance on the screen of her laptop .

“Mister Xia, it’s nice to see you again,” said Walton .

Xia Lei replied, “Mister Walton, I’m sure you know why I’m calling you today . ”

“Of course, it’s just . . . ” Walton paused . “I just wish you could give us some time . ”

Instantly, Xia Lei frowned . “I’ve already given you plenty of time . The Knight Hospitaller still hasn’t produced any results . Let me guess, you’ve found out its location but decided to not inform me about it . Are you planning to not take any further action?”

“Mister Xia, how could you put it that way? For the sake of finding out where it is, we’ve lost a lot of our members . I think you should thank us instead of reprimanding us . ”

“What did you find?”

“Well . . . ” Walton continued, “How about this? Come to Malta, we’ll talk when we meet . ”

“You’re trying to get me to Malta?” Xia Lei found it suspicious .

This was a matter that could be relayed clearly through phone but Walton had wanted him to travel to Malta . Xia Lei was fully aware that Walton was just the Knight Hospitallers leader on the surface . Walton must’ve been acting based on the real leader, Angelo’s intention .

What was the Knight Hospitaller trying to do?

“Mister Xia, there’s no need to overthink this . ” Walton explained, “We’re not trying to plot anything against you . We’ve already found out where the FA headquarters is . Sadly, it’s not possible for the Knight Hospitaler to do this alone . We must come up with a feasible plan . We need your help . ”

Xia Lei went silent . “Tell me, where is it?”

“We’ll meet at Malta Island . Please kindly bring along our sacred relic . ”

“Hahaha!” Xia Lei was so pissed that he started to cackle . “Do you think I’m stupid? Malta is your territory . You’re trying to have me bring over your sacred relic, ambush me to retrieve your stuff and then kill me? This is just plain suicidal for me . ”

“I swear in the name of the Knight Hospitaller you shall not be met with such situations . Trust me, we’re just trying to destroy the FA Organization to complete our part of the deal . ”

“There’s no progress to our initial promise, how am I supposed to believe you?”

“Mister Xia . . . ”

“That’s enough . ” Xia Lei said, “I’ve already given you fifty million USD and a lot of weapons . I guess I’ll just forget about the fifty million dollars and cancel our deal . I’ll go take care of the FA Organization myself and you all can forget about ever getting your sacred relic back . ”

“No no no!” Walton was pressed . “Mister Xia, this is just a misunderstanding . We really have no other intentions . If you don’t trust us, you can return us the sacred relic only after we destroy the FA headquarters . ”

“Give me a good reason to go to Malta . ”

“You’re bound to come . ” There was a small smile on Walton’s lips . “You’ll need us to destroy the FA Organization and…” He paused . “Are you not curious about the secrets behind our sacred relics? I know you’ve been into Da Vinci’s underground maze . You must have questions which need an answer . ”

“Alright . I’ll give this some thought and come back with an answer,” said Xia Lei coolly .

“Sure, please get back to us as soon as possible . I’m looking forward to seeing you . Goodbye, Mister Xia . ” With that, Walton disappeared from the screen .

Xia Lei turned to look at the four women . “I find it hard to decide . Any suggestions?”

“Come with us to Malta Island . ” Giovanna added, “We’re comrades, not enemies . ”

“We won’t hurt you . ” Rosa went on, “Plus, you’re crazy strong . There’s no way for us to defeat you even if we wanted to . ”

Xia Lei smirked . Not his enemy? If he wasn’t well-prepared for the Siberian operation back then, Xia Lei would’ve been long dead in Arthur’s hands . With Walton’s current invitation to Malta Island, Xia Lei could already guess what was lined up ahead of him .

“Mister Xia, as mentioned, you can leave the sacred relics behind . That way, you’ll be more at ease . We’re after the relics, not you . ” Stella joined in to convince him .

“You’re eager to learn about the secrets of the relic . I’m certain you’ll find your answers in Malta,” supplied Theresa .

Xia Lei stared at them . “You’re all my knights, right?”

The Gray and Russo sisters looked at each other . They were but they refused to admit it .

Though so, Giovanna nodded . “Yes, we’ve sworn our loyalty to you . According to our tradition, we are your knights . ”

“So you’ve sworn to obey my orders, right?” asked Xia Lei .

“Yes, as long as your orders do not violate justice . ” Giovanna hurriedly answered .

“I won’t have you do that . ” Xia Lei began to walk to his bed and laid on it . “Come, all four of you shall sleep with me tonight . ”

“Huh?” The female knights were shocked .

“Come on, I want to bed you . ” Xia Lei’s grins were unbearably lewd .

“Shameless man . ” Rossa’s cheeks were burning red from anger . “We’re your knights, your fighters . We’re not prostitutes!”

“Please respect us . ” Theresa was equally enraged .

“Hehe, you may be real knights but you’re definitely not my knights . ” Xia Lei propped himself up from his mattress . “I was just trying to find out how loyal you are to me . Turns out, you all have zero loyalty . ”

Giovanna was irritated . “What are you playing at?”

Xia Lei crawled away from the bed . “Since you’ve obviously zero loyalty for me, I’ve made my decision . You shall leave for Malta at this instance . ”

“You’re trying to chase us out?” Theresa gasped .

“We’re your knights! You can’t do this to us!” exclaimed Rosa .

“This is literally humiliation,” huffed Theresa .

Nonchalantly, Xia Lei replied, “We’ll leave the discussion of whether you’re my knights until the day you’ve learned to offer me real loyalty . It’s not my intention to chase you away by asking you to return to Malta . I want you to relay my decision to Mister Walton . I’ll go to Malta Island on my own terms . ”

The four women looked at each other in unison .

Xia Lei urged them . “Go . There will be no meals for you four from the kitchen today . ”

“How stingy,” uttered Giovanna under her breath .

“I’ve never seen a man this petty in my life . ” Rosa’s voice rang .

“He’s not a gentleman at all . ”

“How about our plane tickets? Are we supposed to buy our own tickets? We’re your knights . The least you could do is to purchase them for us,” complained Theresa .

Ignoring them, Xia Lei turned around and left .

No matter what, Xia Lei needed to get to Malta Island to retrieve the armour . However, he just couldn’t wrap his head around the Knight Hospitallers current motivation . There was no way he could just barge onto the island without proper planning . Bringing the four female knights with him would just make him an easy target . His presence in Malta Island would open up an array of opportunities for the Knight Hospitaller to take him down . He couldn’t just go there . HE had to sneak in .

If he brought the sisters to Malta, he would be alerting them of his presence . If he snuck to the island, he would remain in the dark while the enemy was in the open . This was why he found the need to humiliate the sisters then chase them away .

As soon as Xia Lei left the room, Stella dashed to the windows and lifted the curtains slightly to observe her surroundings . From what she could see, Xia Lei was making his way slowly towards the kitchen . She huffed . “That bastard is really going to inform the kitchen . He’s crazy petty . ”

“Hey, are you forgetting that he rescued us with three million USD? He’s not that stingy of a person . He’s just trying to get rid of us,” argued Theresa .

“How far is he?” questioned Rosa .

Stella released the curtains . “Out of sight . ”

Giovanna turned the laptop on and started a video call, this time with a different account . The person who appeared on the display was no longer Walton but the Knight Hospitallers signet .

As soon as the signet appeared, all four women bowed to the screen respectfully . In unison, they greeted, “Leader . ”

A low, hoarse voice rang through the speakers . “Has he made his decision?”

“Yes,” Giovanna reported . “He wants us to return to Malta . He’ll come over alone . ”

“Hmph, sly fox . ”

“We . . . ” Giovanna gulped nervously . “He doesn’t want us in his house any longer, he’s chasing us out . ”

“I’m disappointed . ” There was anger radiating from the voice booming through the laptop . “You’ve remained in his residence for long but you’ve yet to discover where he hid the sacred relic . Your incompetence has caused severe damage to the Knight Hospitaller . Our future plans and operations had to change because of your mistakes . ”

The four female knights shivered, keeping their heads down .

“Come back . Awaiting your return is not honour but punishment . ” Uttering that, the signet vanished from the screen .

The four women were rooted to their spots blankly, refusing to budge .

Unbeknownst to them, there was a voyeur standing outside the walls behind them .

And that voyeur was none other than Xia Lei .

“Angelo, what the hell are you trying to do?” Xia Lei pondered . Before he left, he had a hunch that Giovanna would contact the authorities of the Knight Hospitallers headquarters . If it wasn’t Walton, it would be Angelo . Now that Angelo was the real recipient, Xia Lei was surprised to find the man extremely cunning as he refused to show his face .

Thankfully, his efforts were still considerably fruitful .

The Grey and Russo sisters were now stuck in an awkward predicament . They had pledged their loyalty to him and became his knight, but Xia Lei had mercilessly chased them away . Now that they were to return to Malta, they were about to face punishment too . Certainly, the outcome was beneficial to him as it gave the four women a chance to become his true knights once and for all .
