Chapter 797: Heading to Mount Dragon
Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

When Westley heard Connor’s words, his face darkened, and a hint of viciousness flashed across his eyes.

Westley did not expect that Connor would actually dare to speak to him like this!

It was obvious what Connor meant. He was obviously saying, “Who do you think you are, Westley Holland? I said I don’t drink, so I don’t drink!”

Westley felt like he had been slapped by Connor.

Connor’s words just now might have made him feel even more uncomfortable than slapping him in front of so many people.

Ruby quietly looked at Westley. She was curious about what Westley would do next!

“Brat, aren’t you a little too arrogant? You get such a rare chance of getting a toast from Mr. Holland, but you actually rejected him?”

One of the young men stood up and shouted at Connor.

Connor looked at the young man indifferently and said coldly, “I’ve already made it very clear just now. I don’t drink, but he still wants to propose a toast. That’s his problem!”

“What do you mean?”

Westley asked Connor in a low voice with a gloomy face.

“Nothing much…”

Connor calmly replied before turning to say to Diana and Carlos, “We’re almost done eating. Let’s go back!”

After saying this, Connor completely ignored Westley. Instead, he stood up and walked out of the hall.

Westley stood where he was and hesitated for a couple of seconds. Then, he threw the wine glass on the floor.

However, Connor still did not react and continued to walk out of the hall.

Everyone looked at Connor’s back, and a trace of helplessness flashed across their eyes.

Westley must be very angry at this moment. Offending Westley at Mount Dragon was not a good thing.

Ruby looked at Connor’s back as he left, and a look of surprise appeared on her face. She didn’t expect Connor to offend Westley.

Westley was the son of the deputy mayor. A person of this level was not someone that anyone could provoke.

Even though Ruby was extremely arrogant toward Westley, she didn’t dare to offend him.

Ruby couldn’t understand where Connor’s confidence came from. He actually dared to offend Westley.

But no matter what, Ruby had already achieved her goal, so she was still very happy.

“Miss, there’s actually no need for you to do this…”

Ted Carlson hesitated for a moment before speaking to Ruby.

“I just wanted to teach Connor a lesson. I didn’t expect Connor to have such a temper. He even dares to offend Westley…”

Ruby said calmly.

“I got someone to investigate Connor McDonald’s identity…”

Ted said in a low voice.

“Who is he?”

Ruby seemed to be very concerned about Connor’s identity as she hurriedly asked Ted.

“Based on the investigation, Connor is just an ordinary university student. There is nothing special about him…”

Ted replied.

“An ordinary university student actually dares to be so arrogant. He must really want to die…”

When Ruby found out about Connor’s identity, her eyes flashed with disdain.

“Miss, that’s oversimplifying things. If Connor is really just an ordinary university student, how could he have so much money? Moreover, the two people beside him are not ordinary people, so I feel that Connor is definitely not as simple as what we know. It’s just that with our current ability, we can’t investigate who he really is…”

Ted said slowly.

“Uncle, even you can’t find out who Connor is. Exactly how mysterious is Connor’?”

Ruby finally understood what Ted meant. A trace of shock flashed across her eyes.

“Forget it, now is not the time for this. As long as we can get the spiritual herb, everything else can be discussed later!”

Ted replied.

Ruby glanced at Ted but didn’t say anything.

…

The next day, at eight o’clock in the morning.

Connor, Ruby, and the others gathered at the entrance of the hotel. This time, Westley actually brought a few bodyguards with him.

Westley’s bodyguards seemed to be quite skilled. If they were to encounter any danger, they would be able to help. Therefore, Ruby allowed Westley to follow them.

When Westley saw Connor, a trace of anger flashed across his eyes.

However, he didn’t bother with Connor. Instead, he stayed beside Ruby and chatted with her.

Because the roads in Mount Dragon were very complicated, and many of them were muddy roads, it was impossible for cars to travel. Therefore, everyone could only walk into Mount Dragon.

Timothy Jackman walked at the front, while Ruby and the others followed closely behind him. Connor, Diana and Carlos were at the back.

Because the roads in Mount Dragon were very complicated, and Timothy had not been to Mount Dragon for a long time, they were moving rather slowly.

After an entire morning, they had only covered less than five kilometers.

Based on Timothy’s judgment, if they continued at this speed, they would need at least three days to find the Precipice Cave.

Of course, Connor was not satisfied with this speed, but he had no choice.

Ruby, Westley and the others were all young masters and ladies from wealthy families. Naturally, they couldn’t endure such hardships.

Therefore, the two of them had to rest for a while before they could continue walking.

In the blink of an eye, the sky began to darken.

Timothy felt that the situation in Mount Dragon was very complicated. If they were to travel at night, they might encounter some danger. Moreover, Ruby and the others could not take it anymore.

Therefore, everyone could only choose to rest where they were and wait until the sun rose the next morning before setting off.

Carlos had been in the special forces for a few years, so he was very experienced in surviving in the wild.

He knew that it was impossible to find the Precipice Cave even though they were already on Mount Dragon, so Carlos had prepared some food and tents beforehand.

As for Ruby, she had so many bodyguards with her and these bodyguards were all carrying heavy luggage, so they did not lack anything. They even brought some barbecue grills, seasonings, and other things.

Everyone first lit a bonfire and then began to set up tents.

Connor, Carlos, Diana, and the other two chose an empty space and set up their tents, about to get some rest for the night.

As for Ruby, after seeing the tents that Connor and the others had set up, her expression was filled with disdain. No one knew what she was thinking.
